Chapter 903 The Great Battle

As Lin Si had expected before, when Li Hao died in battle and Hou Jian was defeated, Mi Yuanyun was directly and forcibly promoted by Wei Zhong to be the commander of the Shenyan Army and served as the second-rank General Zhengnan.

For this reason, Wei Zhong even beheaded two Shenyan generals who spoke out against him on the spot. Even if Hou Jian didn't dare to speak out for a while, the Shenyan generals were even more silent.

The first thing Mi Yuanyun did after he came to power was to ask Shenyan for help.

To be honest, the overall strength of the Shenyan army at that time was actually higher than the Gaozhen Longyan coalition army.In any case, they have the support of the sect and occupy an advantage at the master level.

The combat effectiveness of soldiers is generally higher than that of high-truth soldiers.

Mi Yuanyun's act of asking for help inevitably discredited the mighty Shenyan Empire.But with Wei Zhong's support, who dares to say more?
This move was soon known by the Gaozhen army on the opposite side, and Luo Hou, Guan Rui, Shan Chengye and others were also panicked for a while.

They knew very well that with the strength of the Shenyan Empire, it would not be easy to bring in an army of several million, but it was not impossible.The reason why the Shenyan Empire didn't pour out all its soldiers before was because they were worried that the Bilan Empire would take advantage of it.

However, this doesn't mean that Shenyan really didn't dare to do that.It only needs to mobilize another 100 million people, and the high-truth army will once again fall into a comprehensive disadvantage.

Once the Shenyan reinforcements arrive, the battle will be even more difficult.

The most urgent task is to quickly eliminate the nearly 200 million Shenyan army in front of him.

On the other hand, Mi Yuanyun began to order people to spread the inside story of the battle in Xianglan City to the opposing army.

10,000+ Longyan soldiers were treated as abandoned children, and 50 Longyan people were burned alive. These things have not been spread.Both Luo Hou and Yan Gaoyang knew that once such a matter was revealed, it would definitely affect the morale of the army.

It may even cause strong dissatisfaction among the people in the cities behind. They will worry that a similar encounter will happen to them one day.

They knew that the inside story of this battle could not be concealed from those who cared, and they have been trying their best to play down the news, focusing on how many Shenyan troops were wiped out.

But now, Mi Yuanyun directly spread the news to the outside world on a large scale, and she couldn't stop it at all.

In just a few days, even Yan Gaoyang's Chaohan City had spread the news that Gao Zhenren burned Longyan to death, let alone the frontline army?
At this time, among the 190 million Gaozhen Longyan coalition forces on the front line, the Longyan army still has 50 people.

These people originally came from Fanhe City and Fu'an City. They didn't know the specific situation of Xianglan City's first battle.

But now, when they finally learned the inside story, they were extremely sad and angry.

That's right, of course they hate Shenyan people, of course they hope to die more Shenyan people.But Gao Zhenren's actions are tantamount to using the bones of the Longyan people as a stepping stone to their victory.

They didn't come to help Long Yan at all, they were just worried that the flames of war would reach Gao Zhen.They don't care about the life and death of Longyan people at all!

Who can guarantee that Gao Zhenren will not continue to do this in the future war?
For a moment, the morale of Gao Zhen's Long-Yan coalition army was extremely slackened.On the first day when the news spread, a large number of Longyan soldiers quietly took off their uniforms and left the front line, and nearly [-] Longyan soldiers fled to the rear.

The Longyan soldiers who stayed in the army and did not leave also started a dispute and even fought with the Gaozhen soldiers.

Gao Zhenren has completely controlled this army step by step, and they will naturally not tolerate other voices.

Luo Hou ordered to kill hundreds of Longyan soldiers who escaped and fought, and at the same time strictly guarded the remaining 40 Longyan soldiers. This action completely ignited the anger of the remaining Longyan soldiers.

Although they were unable to leave, this army had already lost the slightest fighting spirit at this time.

Now they don't know whether to hate Shenyanren or Gao Zhenren, for the first time they don't know why they are fighting.

The people in Han City and Fanhe Fu'an City in the rear were already furious. After learning the truth, many Longyan people asked Luo Hou and others to give an explanation.What's more, he directly asked Gao Zhenren to get out of Longyan...

However, how is this possible?

Yan Gaoyang was also powerless to suppress this situation. He knew very well that this matter had gone too far.

Luo Hou, Shan Chengye and the others understood that if they didn't immediately defeat Mi Yuanyun's army, they would collapse first sooner or later.

Now the strength of the Shenyan army on the opposite side is comparable to them, and they are still sure of victory.

As long as Mi Yuanyun's army is defeated, perhaps the Shenyan reinforcements in the rear will retreat back to the country if they see that there is nothing they can do.

In addition, they need a new victory to stabilize the morale of the army.

However, it is not so easy to win a quick battle. They have to force the Shenyan army to come out from several cities along the line, including Qing'an City, to take the initiative to fight them.

If it was just a direct attack on the city, not to mention the heavy casualties, it is impossible to end the war within half a year.

For this reason, the 190 million troops of Gao Zhen and Long Yan's allied forces marched out of the frontline city in three ways.Luo Hou and Shan Chengye did not take the initiative to attack the city, they chose to camp twenty miles away from Qing'an Cheng.

Afterwards, soldiers were sent outside Qing'an City every day to provoke, yell and insult, just to stir up the Shenyan people.

At the same time, Luo Hou quietly sent 20 troops to bypass Qing'an City by a small path, and sneaked behind the Shenyan army, trying to cut off the rear granary and grain supply routes that destroyed the Shenyan army.

Once the Shenyan army lost its source of food and grass, they could only choose to go out of the city to fight, otherwise, within ten days, the Shenyan army in the city would be defeated without fighting because of lack of food.

The Shenyan army has indeed been holding on. Compared to the invincibility of the past few years, the Shenyan army at this time seems extremely timid and weak.

And Gao Zhen's army is as imposing as a tiger, powerful and compelling.

For a moment, the entire continent seemed to see the scene of Shenyan, a huge empire, weakening day by day, and declining to the west.

Perhaps, if it weren't for the strong support of Wei Zhong and the generals of the Central Route Army, Mi Yuanyun at this time would have been overthrown by some Shenyan generals again.

This battle was extremely fraught for them.They can also see that Luo Hou is deliberately provoking them to go out, and the best choice for their side is to refuse the city and defend.

But when will this last?They didn't come to defend the city, they came to pacify Longyan Gaozhen and other countries.They have been attacking all the time, when have they ever been in such a mess?
Three days later, Luo Hou received a thunderbolt from the blue sky.

The 20 troops who went to intercept the grain failed to destroy the granary behind the enemy, let alone cut off the opponent's retreat, forming an encirclement with him as expected.

His plan to cut off food was predicted by Mi Yuanyun from the very beginning.Before his army reached Qing'an City, Mi Yuanyun had already dispatched 20 troops to ambush in the rear granary.

With mental calculations and unintentional calculations, Gao Zhen's 20 army that attacked the granary was almost wiped out.

Luo Hou knew something was wrong, now it seems that the opponent is deliberately waiting for him to attack, waiting for him to sneak attack.

Continuing to forcibly attack the city is just doing unnecessary casualties. Instead of doing this, it is better to retreat to the rear to build fortifications and stop the Shenyan people in Longyan territory.

However, on the day when he pulled out his camp and planned to retreat, the gate of Qing'an City was opened wide, and the Shenyan army came out of the city in mighty force.

Luo Hou knew very well that if the two armies fought on the plains and confronted head-on, although the battle would be extremely fierce, the damage would not be too great.

When 10 people confronted 10 people head-on in an open field, at the end of the fight, only 3 to [-] people would be killed or injured on both sides, which would be remarkable.

In wars, hundreds of thousands of casualties were actually caused by ambushes, encirclement wars, and massive defeats.

In that case, the vast majority of soldiers are completely headless, and have no fighting spirit. They just want to escape, but they can't stop them.

In desperation, he could only choose to turn around and fight.

And the other party leaving the city was originally what he wanted to see.

The two sides lined up, and soon the 40 vanguards of the two sides collided head-on.

A bloody battle started on the plain outside Qing'an City, but the result of the battle was beyond Luo Hou's expectation. Gao Zhen's army quickly gained the upper hand, killing the powerful Shenyan Vanguard Army and retreating again and again.

Seeing this, General Gaozhen rushed straight into the enemy's central formation, trying to break through the central formation of Shenyan's army and enter Qing'an City.

After all, Luohou has certain talents, just looking at this scene, he knew there was a fraud, and quickly ordered to withdraw his troops.However, it was already too late. Under the leadership of Gu Zihan and Lou Hai, the left and right wings of the Shenyan army quickly outflanked the middle road and cut off the back road of Gaozhen's vanguard army.

The 40 Shenyan vanguard army that had retreated suddenly turned around and charged towards Gaozhen's army again.

Seeing this, Luo Hou decisively chose to swing his army to outflank Shenyan's empty left and right wings, trying to defeat Shenyan's army from the flanks.

His tactics can't be miscalculated, it can even be regarded as avoiding reality and falsely attacking the enemy's weaknesses.But at the moment when his army had just attacked, there was a sudden shout of killing from behind.

Numerous Shenyan troops rushed out from the rear of Gao Zhen's Longyan coalition army, looking as far as the eye could see, they could only see the overwhelming Shenyan army flags behind them.Roughly counting, there are no less than one million!

"The second city of Fanhe and Fu'an has been captured!"

"All soldiers of Longyan can not be killed if they surrender!"

"You wait for the grain road to be cut off, so don't surrender quickly!"

The voice of the master in the late stage of the Heaven Realm filled with spiritual power almost spread throughout the battlefield, and Luo Hou was shocked when he heard this.

how can that be?There is already an army of more than one million divine flames on the opposite side, how could the other party have an army of one million?Even if the other party has this strength and mobilizes a million-scale army, how can our side not get any news?
As for the two cities of Fanhe and Fu'an, I didn't neglect them, and kept them open.Just this morning, I also received the situation over there!

How could it be possible for the opponent to attack there suddenly in just two hours?And then go all the way to Qing'an City?

All of this seemed impossible at all.

But immediately, he suddenly realized.

"This is the opponent's trick! Don't fall for it!" He also poured his spiritual power into his voice and shouted.

Yes, this is a ruse.

The million-strong army in the rear is probably no more than a hundred thousand at most, but the front lines are sparse enough, and the military flags are deliberately increased by ten times...

However, the two armies are at war at this time, who has the leisure to check the truth?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Fanhe and Fu'an Second City. The other party deliberately said this just to mess with their own morale!

In this kind of big battle, once the morale of the army is disturbed and the soldiers only want to escape, the consequences will be unimaginable, and maybe there will be a big rout in the next moment!

Yes, Luo Hou is not a mediocre general, but it's a pity that he can see through all this, but it doesn't mean that other people can too.

During the war, many soldiers fought with pure courage.And once the situation is not good, it is normal to run away.

At that time, the superior general wanted to command, but he was powerless.
