Chapter 792 Liu Xiu's Countermeasure

"The number of troops Wang Mang sent to conquer us is really shocking..."

Standing on a hillside, Liu Xiu looked at the army of the new dynasty coming from afar, covering the entire plain, which was unbelievable.

When Chu Tian saw an enemy army of this size, sweat dripped from his forehead reflexively.

Such a terrifying army might be more than 420,000 troops, because Chu Tian saw that there was the same dark army on the north bank of the Hushui River.

Now Chutian seemed to realize something was wrong.

Extremely difficult, it seems that it is not as simple as imagined.

The 420,000 army on the opposite side is different from the peasant army. Wang Mang inherited a group of elite troops from the Western Han Empire.

When Wang Feng, Wang Chang and other leaders of the Green Forest Army saw the army of the new dynasty, cold sweat broke out from their backs.

The number of officers and soldiers is more than the number of their Green Forest Army. Who is the Green Forest Army?

Wang Feng, one of the leaders of the Green Forest Army, was trembling uncontrollably, and his fingers were cramping, "It's better to give up Kunyang, and retreat to our respective hometowns after we disperse, so as to avoid the front of the bandit soldiers for the time being..."

Another leader of the Green Forest Army, Wang Chang, also said, "What you said is very true. We can't compete with Wang Mang's army now. If we hit a stone with an egg, the end will be bleak."

"Are you confident in defeating the enemy?"

Chu Tian looked at Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu is a family member with the surname Liu, and also the main combat faction, Chutian's biggest ally in the Kunyang battle.

Chu Tian believed that Liu Xiu would not make mistakes.

Moreover, Liu Xiu is also a general with the aura of the whole army, and can cooperate with Chu Tian.

If possible, Chu Tian even considered abducting Liu Xiu back to the main world.

The current Liu Xiu is not yet the emperor, and he never imagined that he would become the emperor in the future.

This guy, his luck may be better than Chu Tian and others, a true son of the plane.

In addition, Liu Xiu also has a nickname - the great magister.

"Everyone raise the flag of righteousness, restore the Han Dynasty, and crusade against the rebels. If we disband now,

Then Wang Mang not only would not give up arresting us, but when he returned to the village, a pavilion chief could lead people to arrest us. Only when everyone works together to defeat the new army and capture Wang Mang can we survive. "

Liu Xiu's attitude was indeed different from that of other leaders of the Green Forest Army.

The other leaders of the Green Forest Army couldn't help but take another look at Liu Xiu.

"It's strange, the general is usually timid in small-scale battles, but now that the enemy is in front of him, he still advocates us to attack."

One of Liu Xiu's subordinates, Wang Ba, who is also one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, couldn't help muttering.

At present, Liu Xiu has subdued several talents, and they are the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai of Emperor Guangwu in the future.

Ma Wu, Wang Ba, Fu Jun, Ren Guang and others are all in Kunyang City at this time.

Among the twenty-eight generals in Yuntai, there are military geniuses and mediocrities, and they are ranked according to their merits.

Feng Yi, one of the most talented twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, is already a general of Chutian.

But at this time, Feng Yi was not yet in Liu Xiu's army.

Liu Xiu seemed to be in pain, and was a little embarrassed, "People always cherish their own lives. When fighting in peacetime, you must be cautious and dare not fight in front of you. But it is life and death, and fleeing is a dead end. Fight hard. There is still a glimmer of life, but any wise person should know how to choose."

A group of generals of the Green Forest Army looked at each other, and finally seemed to have made up their minds, "I will listen to the general."

Chu Tian was listening to a group of leaders of the Green Forest Army discussing. It seemed that Liu Xiu was very timid in the previous battle.

This is different from the image of Emperor Guangwu in Chu Tian's impression, but it does not affect Liu Xiu's stepping forward at the critical moment, leading a partial division of the Green Forest Army to meet the 840,000 troops.

"Brother Chu, there are still some soldiers and horses in Yancheng and Dingling. I plan to go to these places to gather soldiers and horses before Wang Mang's army completely surrounds Kunyang. Will you lead a team of cavalry? With me outside the city, defeating the enemy army?"

Liu Xiu proposed to leave Kunyang and use cavalry to defeat the enemy outside the city.

Cavalry is an arm used to create miracles, and it is also an arm that wins more with less.

"Then how about Kunyang City?"

"Wang Feng and Wang Chang can guard Kunyang."

"Wang Feng and Wang Chang..."

Chu Tian doubted whether Wang Feng and Wang Chang's abilities could hold Kunyang City.

What the current Green Forest Army has to face is not an ordinary new army.

The number of the army of the new dynasty may exceed ten thousand, and the fighting power is stronger. Chutian even saw the tiger army in the army of the new dynasty.

Chu Tian is very familiar with the Huben Army, because he has a high-ranking heavy cavalry, which is the Huben Army.

Among the army of the new dynasty, there is no shortage of elite troops, and there are even many, because Wang Mang inherited the team from the Western Han Dynasty.

"War elephants? There is actually a war elephant army, and that team of large carriages. What are they used for?"

Chu Tian vaguely saw a group of war elephants in the distance, and a group of strange carriages. Each carriage required four horses, and his expression suddenly became tense.

War elephants are a ninth-tier unit with the power to kill generals. If they cannot restrain the war elephants, the cavalry will be destroyed by the war elephant troops.

If Chutian was in the opposite camp, commanding an army of hundreds of thousands, and a group of tiger and elephant troops, Chutian thought he could beat the son of luck.

Wait, I guess the general on the other side thinks so too...

Chu Tian became cautious.

There is also a famous battle, the Battle of Feishui, in which Fu Jian's 800,000 army was defeated by Xie Xuan's 80,000 Beifu army.

Of course, the military strength recorded in the history books contains water, but in "The Lord", it is hard to say whether there is water.

In case it is really an army of 800,000, which is equivalent to the 40,000 army brought by Chutian, one person has to deal with 20 enemy soldiers.

Even so, the side with more troops seems to have a high probability of failure.

"Can you keep Kunyang?"

Chu Tian looked at Wang Feng and Wang Chang, but he was not clear about their abilities, because Chu Tian couldn't check their panels at all.

"There are only 9,000 soldiers and horses in Kunyang City. How can we block the attack of hundreds of thousands of people? Even if Kunyang City is strong, at least 20,000 to 30,000 people are needed to defend Kunyang City..."

Wang Feng and Wang Chang turned pale when they thought that they were going to guard Kunyang.

In fact, even if there were 20,000 to 30,000 people, the two were unwilling to garrison Kunyang City.

About one hundred thousand people.

But at present, all the soldiers and horses combined are only 50,000 people.

Cavalry is valuable only outside the city, and has little value inside the city.

"I can leave 13,000 crossbow troops, 7,000 cavalry, and 9,000 green forest troops, together, to defend Kunyang City. The rest of the cavalry will follow me out of the city and come back."

Chu Tian decided to ask Liang Hongyu to assist Wang Feng and Wang Chang in defending Kunyang City.

Relying on Wang Feng and Wang Chang alone, Chutian is not at ease, because the army of the new dynasty has obviously strengthened.

The difficulty of the battle of Kunyang in the extremely difficult mode is doubled. Chu Tian really can't imagine whether the strength of the army of the new dynasty will exceed one million in the battle of Kunyang in the hell mode.

Liu Xiu's thinking is undoubtedly correct. It is difficult to defend an isolated city, so it is necessary to send a cavalry out of the city to wait for an opportunity to attack the army of the new dynasty.

20,000 cavalry raided the 800,000 army, and Chutian didn't know if he would succeed.

The sea of ​​people tactics may cause 20,000 cavalry to fall into a sea of ​​corpses and blood, making it difficult to move an inch.

The Green Forest Army still had troops in other cities in Yingchuan County. Liu Xiu planned to find more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and join forces with Chutian's 20,000 cavalry to raid the army of the New Dynasty outside the city.

"Let's go back to Kunyang City and make preparations."

After Liu Xiu made up his mind, he gave up observing the army of the new dynasty, and prepared to leave the hillside with Chu Tian and his party. They can already roughly feel the fighting power of the army of the new dynasty, which is far stronger than they imagined.

Hundreds of war horses came down the mountain, Zhao Yun held a gentian silver gun and followed closely beside Chu Tian, ​​followed by a group of white horses.

Every general must be covered by cavalry, so that it is not easy to die.

"Lord Da Sikong, there is a scout cavalry from the Green Forest Army spying on us."

When Chu Tian, ​​Liu Xiu and others were observing, some military descendants in Wang Yi's army had already noticed the whereabouts of Chu Tian and his party.

Wang Yi asked, "How did you know?"

"The eagle hovering in the sky is the eyes and ears of the Green Forest Army."

"Yan You, lead five thousand cavalry to investigate and see if this is the case."

In the end, Wang Yi chose to let the deputy general intercept and kill the scout cavalry of the Green Forest Army.

Wang Mang summoned 500 descendants of military strategists from all over the world to serve as generals, and they more or less have their own special abilities. Some descendants of the military family saw the role of the war eagle of the iron eagle scout.

"Take orders!"

Yan You was Wang Yi's most capable lieutenant general, and immediately led 5,000 cavalry to leave.

Situ Wangxun said, "Should we send a giant, he is the number one general in our army, he can defeat thousands of people."

"To deal with a scout cavalry, it is not enough to use the giant and his army of beasts. Your majesty collects the ferocious beasts in the world, and appointed to use the army of beasts to kill Liu Xiu who is in Kunyang City at this time. This is why I want to Insist on capturing Kunyang City."

When Wang Yi mentioned Wang Mang's order to him, he couldn't help feeling emotional.

Wang Xun was puzzled, "Why does Your Majesty have to kill Liu Xiu by name? Although Liu Xiu is also an important figure in the Green Forest Army, the one who is really difficult to deal with should be his elder brother Liu Yan."

"have no idea."

Wang Yi shook his head again.

Liu Yan is Liu Xiu's elder brother. Before the world was in chaos, he secretly befriended knights. At that time, Liu Xiu was still farming...

Later, Liu Yan raised an army and merged with the Green Forest Army, becoming one of the most prominent leaders of the Green Forest Army. Liu Xiu's later achievements were not unrelated to his elder brother.

It is Liu Yan who is now leading the main force of the Green Forest Army to besiege Wancheng.

It can be said that Liu Yan was more heroic than Liu Xiu before he was killed in the internal strife in the Green Forest Army.

However, Wang Mang's order was to kill Liu Xiu first.

Neither Wang Yi nor Wang Xun could understand why Wang Mang took the lead in getting rid of the number two Liu Xiu among the Liu brothers instead of the number one Liu Yan.

"No matter what, if you capture Kunyang City and kill Liu Xiu, His Majesty will give us 50,000 households and 100,000 gold, and our descendants will always be sheltered."

Wang Yi knew that Wang Mang was always generous, so if he killed Liu Xiu, Wang Mang's reward would not be less.
