Chapter 463 The Fierce Battlefield
Such a tragic battle has never happened before in the Western Army's many years of fighting.
After all, facing different enemies, Dongxuan and Ziyou's troops were essentially surprised.
The army of the Ziyou Empire has the best single-soldier combat capability in this world. However, against the excellent teamwork of the Yutang Army, it really has never gained the upper hand. Our own combat strength is the number one in Yutang. Before the Western Army Wang Shuai, he had the order to rush reinforcements on the western front to snatch the first army in Yutang. All of a sudden!
Tens of thousands of corpses... but after the First World War!
Sun Tzuhu entered Iron Bone Pass with a dazed head, but he was immediately warmly welcomed by the guards. Fu Baoguo Gengshi went out to welcome him in person and entertained him with the highest standard.
Holding Sun Tzuhu's hand, Fu Baoguo had tears in his eyes.
The iron-bone pass in this meeting really needs reinforcements!
Or it should be said that the Tieguguan always needs reinforcements, but at present, the need for reinforcements is imminent. Without support, the Tieguguan is difficult to hold, it is in danger, and it will be destroyed at every turn!
Facing Han Shanhe's extremely fierce attack, Fu Baoguo's 400,000 troops were decreasing at a speed that made him heartbroken. Now there are less than 250,000 people who can fight!
And these 250,000 people also include 150,000 iron cavalry who cannot participate in the defense of the city; there are also 30,000 Fu Baoguo's secret troops.
In other words, there are only 80,000 people left to defend the city every day!
Almost every one of these 80,000 people is exhausted and exhausted, and they are only struggling to support them, and they may collapse at any time.
Fu Baoguo's face was pale, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his whole body was almost out of shape; he who has always paid attention to his appearance, now has a beard and scum on his face, and he looks like an extremely down-and-out middle-aged uncle.
However, the concealed murderous aura on his body still proved that Fu Baoguo was still standing up, persisting, and obeying the agreement made by Yu Yunyang that day!
"Marshal Fu has worked hard! Sun Tzuhu led the Western Army's 150,000 brothers to join the battle. The reinforcements on the western front are all under the command of Marshal Fu. Orders and prohibitions are strictly prohibited, and there is no doubt about what you say!"
Those who can become the elite of the army are basically veterans. After just taking a look at the battlefield, Sun Zihu and the 150,000 Western Army have a considerable understanding of the current battle situation, and they are even more impressed by the Eastern Army!
The First Army of the Yutang Dynasty is well-deserved and worthy of its name, and there are no false soldiers under its great reputation!
Commander, your wish to let us take back the first army of Yutang, the chances are really slim, at least we are not confident enough!
The battle is always two sides!
To be able to beat the enemy so badly, one's own effort would certainly not be much better!
"Brothers have worked hard."
Fu Baoguo smiled warmly and happily: "Brothers have traveled a long distance, and the journey was too hard. Just looking at your clothes is enough to explain the problem. Have a good meal tonight, and then go to bed. Don't worry about the war. , everything will be done after the spirit has been raised, and everything will be dependent on you in the future, only at this moment!"
"Yes." Sun Zihu is also a man who knows soldiers, so he naturally knows that Fu Baoguo's words are sincere, and he really thinks about the Western Army.
I brought these 150,000 brothers to rush all the way. Although I arrived a day and a half earlier and my morale was very strong, my physical strength has reached the limit, and everyone is exhausted. .
That's not to rush to help, it's to die!
This night's rest is indeed necessary, necessary!
Originally, the reinforcements who had traveled such a long distance, coupled with the need to be familiar with the war, the terrain, and the situation; the rest time for the whole down will take more than two days to fully recover and even integrate.
But both Sun Zihu and Fu Baoguo knew that Han Shanhe would never give them this buffer time!
Sure enough, on the night when the reinforcements arrived, Dongxuan's army under the command of Han Shanhe launched an offensive against Tieguguan again, and it was an unprecedentedly powerful offensive!
The 300,000 Dongxuan army participating in the battle this time was divided into six waves by Han Shanhe, and there were no gaps in the continuous attacks, and the sound of fighting was loud.
Fu Baoguo tried his best to divide the defenders into three waves, taking turns to go up; many soldiers were really exhausted to the limit. Walking while moving the stone... suddenly fell headlong to the ground, it wasn't that he was fainted from exhaustion, but he was directly exhausted to death.
Fu Baoguo's complexion is like iron, and his heart is also like iron. He knows that the barrier in front of him must be overcome. If he can't survive, the iron barrier will undoubtedly be broken. Keep dealing with Han Shanhe!
"Marshal, call the iron cavalry and Baoguo army to help defend the city." Many iron cavalry generals and Fu Baoguo's secret army generals came to plead, crying: "We can't fight like this anymore! The brothers who defend the city are about to die. worn out!"
Fu Baoguo's face was like a rock: "No! Now is the time for you to rest, all of you go back to sleep! This place can hold on! You don't need to intervene!"
The faces of the generals of the two elite troops were almost covered with tears.
"Brothers can't take it anymore. Seeing that Paoze is dying in battle, exhausted, and may be unable to hold on at any time... But we eat and drink well every day, sleep soundly, and do nothing... Brothers all Going crazy."
Fu Baoguo said coldly: "Are you going crazy? No, you're not really crazy! Then keep supporting me! When it's your turn, you can't sleep well now, and you can't rest well. It's my fault that I didn't remind you! Now, I command: Get out! Even if you are really crazy, there is something that makes you crazy! Get out!"
Several generals left with their heads drooped.
It's not that Fu Baoguo really has a firm heart and doesn't want to use cavalry and secret troops to defend the city, but... can't!
The line of defense of Iron Guguan must be defended.
But in the face of Han Shanhe's offensive, Fu Baoguo had already planned in his mind.
I am afraid that the iron bone pass cannot be held for long. Even if it survives the current pass, with the help of reinforcements from the western front, the time it can last is still limited. And once the iron-bone pass is broken, the 30,000 secret troops and 150,000 cavalry will be the foundation for Fu Baoguo to build another iron-bone pass!
If defending the city is wasted at this moment... then, it would be the biggest waste!
The greatest strength that cavalry can exert is always on horseback!
It is definitely not defending the city!
Sun Tzuhu took his own army and settled in the empty barracks in the city.
These barracks were originally full of people, but now, they are already empty, and there are very few people!
Seeing the clean and tidy barracks, empty of people; the small tables and chairs in the camp, and the handwriting left by the soldiers; the fragmentary writing on them, all the elite of the 150,000 Western Army cried like children.
"On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, I went to Tieguguan. Fighting for the country. Ten people in the same robe discussed the funeral. The suicide note and military salary were all accounted for today. However, the brothers didn't think they would die, so they laughed all night."
"On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, the battle started today. We didn't go out to fight. In the afternoon, we saw the bodies of many comrades being transported back and burned. The brothers fell silent. The entire barracks could hear needles being dropped."
"On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, go to battle. Three brothers died in battle. When we returned to the camp here, there were only seven left. We will cry a lot."
"On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, two brothers died in battle. There were five people left, and they cried loudly to mourn the dead brothers."
"On the 11th day of the twelfth lunar month, only Sun Dabiao and I came back. This time, we had no tears, but we wanted to cry without tears. We set up the memorial tablets for our brothers, took out money to buy wine, and got drunk all night. We told our brothers Guys, don't go too far, wait for us, we will return to the team later.",
"On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Sun Dabiao died in battle..."
In the tent where Sun Tzuhu was staying, there was a small book in it, which only recorded the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and there was no more text after that.
Presumably, in the subsequent battles, the writer had also been martyred.
This should be something recorded by a military secretary.
It only took ten days for the ten-person team to arrive here on the third day of the twelfth lunar month until all members were killed in battle.
There are still six days without turn to play.
Behind the small book, a lot has been torn up, it should be the suicide note written by the soldiers.
The last page is the one that says "Sun Dabiao died in battle", and there are still a few words on the back.
The handwriting was very messy, as if it was erased after writing.
Sun Tzuhu tried his best to tell the difference, and when he made the difference, tears burst into his face.
That's four words.
"I want to go home..."
