Chapter 307 ??? The Courage to Bet
Chapter 307 - The Courage to Bet
"Damn it, are they crazy?"
At this moment, on the other side, Yan Haomiao was gnashing his teeth and shouting.
Not long ago, the scouts suddenly sent back an early warning, saying that a large number of troops suddenly poured out of Dongping City and were rushing towards them.
At the beginning, Yan Haomiao didn't care, thinking that the other party just wanted to show him the reinforcements received from the three border cities, and wanted him to retreat knowing that there was nothing to be done.
Yan Haomiao simply dismissed this. After all, his purpose was to force Fengqi Province to continue to tilt its troops to this side, so that Mohe Province could find opportunities.
Just come, and by the way, you can also see how the other party's reinforcements have come, so that you can save some hands and feet, so as not to send scouts to investigate and cause unnecessary casualties.
Yan Haomiao thought so, and followed the forward troops to a place close to the border of Nantes province, wanting to take a good look at how many soldiers could come out of Dongping City.
Then, his mentality changed.
There were not too many soldiers coming out of Dongping City, but there were also quite a few. Based on Yan Haomiao's own experience, he could tell at a cursory glance that there were only a million soldiers.
With such a mighty army in formation, it is really full of momentum, like a golden and iron horse.
But regarding this, Yan Haomiao was unafraid.
It was only one million, and he didn't believe that the other party hadn't received information about how many troops he had here. It was obviously not a wise move to fight with less at this time.
So, should we focus on showing our strength?
While Yan Haomiao was thinking this way, Zhu Yan's army at Dongping City didn't seem to have any intention of stopping. They maintained the tight phalanx of the group army and pressed towards the border line step by step.
It wasn't until the sword-shield hand phalanx in charge of defense had stepped across the border that Yan Haomiao suddenly realized that the opponent didn't seem to have any intention of stopping!
Not only that, but he also found a lot of large war equipment such as catapults and siege arrow towers in the opponent's central army.
These war instruments are not only extremely useful in siege, but also can exert great power in the plain confrontation terrain where the two armies are facing each other like now.
If the opponent is just to show off his strength, what is he doing with so many war equipment in the Chinese army formation?
Feeling something bad, Yan Haomiao's expression became serious, and he ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle at a very fast speed.
He finally discovered that the other party was not actually showing his strength to him, but really wanted to be with him...
fight!
"Damn it, these guys are dying?"
Although Yan Haomiao was shocked, he was not confused, and the opponent's troops were far inferior to his own. The current situation may be that some of the generals can no longer bear this oppressive situation, so they choose to lead their troops to give it a go!
After all, according to the information obtained from the scouts, the current strength of the three border cities is not only one million, but about two to three million!
If the opponent came out in full force, maybe Yan Haomiao would choose to retreat with the whole army rather than confront the opponent head-on.
But it's only a million, so what if it's head-to-head?
Yan Haomiao even felt that this would be an opportunity!
What would happen if he swallowed the opponent's army of millions here?
Of course, it is impossible for him to be unscathed, and he will pay a certain price, but how much can this price be?
The confrontation between the two armies is not as simple as adding and subtracting. It doesn't mean that he has 1.7 million here and the opponent has 1 million. Once they fight, they will subtract this reduction. The conclusion is that he will have 700,000 yuan left. Ten thousand.
According to this calculation, what else should the general do?
It's fine for the four major empires to have more troops than their own. Whoever has more soldiers will be the boss and can dominate the entire Haotian Continent.
The superiority in military strength allows the general to have more varied tactical arrangements, and at the same time, the number of individual troops in battle will also greatly affect the trend of the battle situation.
According to Yan Haomiao's estimate, if he wants to eat this million-dollar army in one bite, the price he will pay will not be more than 500,000!
In other words, he will still have a huge force of 1.2 million!
Of course, it doesn't really matter how many troops he has after the war.
The other party managed to gather an army of almost 3 million to this side, and this time it was 1 million less. Will the remaining army be able to defend the joint attack of Bai Lie and Qingyang?
He himself has 1.2 million, and the Qingyang Empire is closer to the Nantes province, and of course the troops it can support will not be less. It is no problem at all to exceed the total number of troops of the opponent, and even In a crushing situation.
In this case, what will Fengqi provincial capital do?
Of course, we will continue to increase troops here!
At present, the total number of troops sent here by Fengqi Province is close to half of the total. A bottom line of normal operation, if it exceeds this bottom line...
Crash!
Yan Haomiao can think of this word, and it is very possible to realize it.
Then, let's fight!
In a flash of thought, Yan Haomiao considered all aspects, and finally came to the conclusion that it is better to fight than not to compare. This is simply an opportunity handed to him by the other party!
……………………
Here is Chen Ze.
Seeing him wryly smiling and shaking his head, he said: "General Xu, I have to say that General Ouyang of your country is a great talent!"
By now, he also wanted to understand the key.
It's not that the Zhu Yan Empire can't see the trend of the situation clearly, on the contrary, the situation that Chen Ze is analyzing is also the worry of the Zhu Yan Empire.
Yan Haomiao's conspiracy is not only seen through by Chen Ze, but also by Zhu Yan Empire. They also know that if they wait like this, the situation will only get worse.
But what can we do now?
The army of the Bailie Empire is clearly there, and there is the support of the Qingyang Empire in the rear. The combination of the two makes people feel desperate.
However, the arrival of Chen Ming sent by Chen Ze gave the generals of the Zhu Yan Empire hope.
if!
What if there is no Qingyang Empire?
This assumption has been discussed many times within the Zhuyan Empire. If there is no Qingyang Empire, just relying on Yan Haomiao's army of more than one million, in fact, it is nothing!
But the problem is that the Qingyang Empire exists, and the Qingyang Empire will seize their Nantes province right now.
But the arrival of Chen Ming made the generals of the Zhu Yan Empire realize that this is an opportunity!
Not to mention whether it was a trick or not, even if it was, it would have to take a risk now.
So Ouyang Zongbing chose such a time node.
On the one hand, the negotiations with the Qingyang Empire have not yet been completed, and even if the other party unites to make a fool of themselves, they will never think that they dare to take the first step when the situation is not clear.
Now this time is the best time!
