Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 707
In November [-], the Far East region was already slightly cold. After nearly two months of bloody fighting, the main force of the Far East Uprising Army not only failed to defeat the Hanhai Army, but was besieged by the elite Hanhai Army in the eastern part of De'an Province. area.

The eastern part of De'an Province is an endless plain area. At this moment, the vegetation is withered, and it is desolate. The yellow weeds are curled up and blown high into the sky by the autumn wind.

High above the sky, the sharp-eyed carnivorous vultures were hovering with open wings, overlooking the bloody earth, and finally couldn't help but rushed down.

The dense corpses covered the wilderness with a radius of four or five miles, and the broken battle flags were blowing in the cold wind, making it even more desolate.

The broken sabers were casually discarded on the red-stained grass, and the cold corpses were bitten by the wild wolves who dared to smell the blood, dripping with blood.

The Far East Rebel Army and the Hanhai Army fought in this wilderness every day, but faced with the encirclement like an iron barrel, the rebel army paid a heavy price and still could not break out.

Every time the rebel army breaks through, the Hanhai Army will dispatch their highly mobile cavalry troops to intercept them. On the flat wilderness, the cavalry is completely one-sided in massacres against the infantry. Every time the Far East rebel army breaks through, they leave countless corpses Forced to return to camp.

A solid barracks stood on the wilderness ten miles away from the battlefield, and the main force of the Far East Uprising Army was stationed here.

Traps, fences, and ditches are all over the perimeter of the camp. If Han Hai's army wants to break through this camp, they will have to bruise their heads.

However, Marshal Simon of the Hanhai Army is a man who has experienced many battles, and he was born in a noble family and has received a good military education. Naturally, he would not foolishly use his elite soldiers to waste in vain.

Nearly 50 elites under the command of Marshal Simon set up four camps in the surrounding area of ​​the Far East Rebel Army, besieged the camp of the Far East Rebel Army, and did not attack.

At the beginning, Zhao Yun, the commander of the rebel army, had the strategy of staying here to attract the Hanhai army to attack, and when the Hanhai army was exhausted, he launched a counterattack and defeated the Hanhai army in one fell swoop.

The reason why Zhao Yun adopted this method was that the 30 border guards who besieged Hanhai suffered heavy losses and couldn't eat it down, so now he wants to turn the Far East uprising army into this stone for Hanhai people to chew on, hoping to consume Hanhai's army of vitality.

But Zhao Yun overlooked one important point, which is that they are not the same as the elite Hanhai army. The Hanhai army carries a large amount of food, grass and supplies, and the soldiers are powerful in combat.

However, the Far East Uprising Army was inferior in terms of logistics equipment and soldiers' combat capabilities. It was not at 01:30. The two armies reported to the regiment for warmth. Instead of having an advantage, their disadvantages were even more obvious.

The fact that the Hanhai army besieged them and did not attack them drove Zhao Yun crazy. The daily consumption of grain and grass consumed by nearly a million of them eating horse chews was an astronomical figure.

Now the Hanhai army cut off their supply line and did not attack them. Instead, Zhao Yun and the rebel army fell into a passive position.

Since the Hanhai army did not attack, Zhao Yun also knew that their food and grass would not last long, so he planned to lead the army back to the Huayu Plain in the central part of the Far East, because it was a grain-producing area that could supply their army for long-term operations.

However, due to Zhao Yun's delay in the battle, the orders he issued were also changed day and night. He was originally planning to fight the Hanhai army, but after the collapse of the first group army scared him, he was ready to withdraw.

Later, they came up with the strategy of sticking to the counterattack on the spot, and now they want to leave when they see that they can't fight, and they change orders again and again, without a firm stand, and the result is that nearly a million troops are like a headless army. It was like flies, chaotically bumping into each other, and finally surrounded here.

Zhao Yun sent an elite army to try to tear a big hole in the encirclement of the Hanhai army, and then led the whole army to break through, but facing the galloping Hanhai cavalry, they were beaten back as soon as they rushed out.

Now Marshal Simon of the Hanhai Empire is determined to drag down the Far East rebel army and annihilate them in one fell swoop, how could they allow them to break through.

The Far East Rebel Army fought bloody battles with the Hanhai Army in this area for nearly two months, and the original army of one million only had less than 50 remnants and defeated generals. The losses were not insignificant.

"My lord, our breakout failed again." The bloody general pushed his head and reported to Zhao Yun dejectedly.

They have launched countless breakout operations in the past few days, but they all ended in failure. Facing the iron wall of the Hanhai army, they would only be smashed if they rushed out.

At this moment, Zhao Yun's eyes were deeply sunken, and his face was full of exhaustion. He had been numb to such a result for the past few days. He waved to the general feebly. The general sighed and bowed his hands to leave.

Since they separated from the Fourth Army led by Chief of Staff Mu Xue, successive strategic mistakes caused them heavy losses.

At the beginning, the high-spirited Zhao Yun who wanted to defeat the Hanhai army and become the king of the Far East lost his prestige in the army day by day, and many soldiers missed the days of fighting under the command of the chief of staff.

"Pass down our military order to cook food at three o'clock tonight, and the whole army breaks out from the east at five o'clock."

Zhao Yun finally gave the order for the whole army to break through, because his quartermaster had told him that their food supply could no longer last, and he was going to fight hard.

In the camps of the Far East Uprising Army, there are dilapidated tents everywhere, and the wounded and surviving wounded soldiers are lying in the tents, groaning in pain. The lack of medical care and medicine makes many people die slowly in pain. .

After two months of bloody fighting, the rebel army with strong soldiers and horses at the beginning was as thin as a stick, and their eyes were full of numbness like ghosts.

The continuous fighting without rest has exhausted the last trace of strength in their bodies, and they have reached the brink of collapse.

It was precisely because Zhao Yun knew that the army under his command was about to collapse, so he prepared to take the night to give it a go. Whether he could escape, and how much he could escape could only depend on luck.

Now Zhao Yun has no ability to take all the rebel troops out, he just hopes to break out as many elites as possible, and then he can regroup and fight back.

Just when the Far East rebel army was preparing for the whole army to break out of the siege, an important military meeting was being held in the big tent of the Chinese army in the vast sea.

Marshal Simon was wearing a fine blue armor and sat at the head. On both sides of the long table, stars were shining, such as General Denzel and General Metters.

Marshal Simon has already known from the reaction of the Far East uprising army that they have reached the brink of collapse, so a general offensive is brewing.

Now the Hanhai army has a total of 80, and it is already capable of eating up the second and third armies in the Far East, which are besieged by them.

"Is everyone's mission clear?" Marshal Simon said with a serious face, looking around at the commanders of each legion.

"Clear!" The generals were all excited, and their voices were resounding.

The riots of the Far East Uprising Army in the Far East made them faceless, and now is their chance to avenge their shame.

"Okay! Launch an attack in the evening! Be sure to wipe out the enemy!"

"The empire must win!"

With a wave of Marshal Simon's hand, the generals filed out, and immediately returned to their respective troops, and began to gather troops, preparing to give the Far East rebels a thunderous blow.
