Chapter 110 (1/2)
In the wilderness, the sky is clear, and the war is coming to a critical moment.
The size of the troops of the two warring sides was similar, but the morale of the Chu army was strong, and all of them bravely moved forward. The imperial army was at an obvious disadvantage. It was only a matter of time before the complete defeat.
On the high platform in the center of the military array, Qin Feng and Zhao Yuanjin stood by the fence, quietly watching the fierce fighting of thousands of troops below, with indifferent looks.
More than a month ago, the government of Chu, which had finished its preparations, finally sent troops to cross the Yangtze River for the northern expedition. One hundred thousand sailors, two hundred thousand infantry troops, and fifty thousand Yulin forbidden troops, totalling 350000 troops.
In addition, the 200000 Xiang soldiers responsible for logistics and transportation, as well as the same number of civilian boatmen and sailors, are known as 700000 strong soldiers. The king of Chu personally led the army, and the National Division also went out with the army. All of a sudden, the world was shocked.
Everyone knows that the Chu army, which has been well-trained for a long time, is just like a tiger who opened the floodgate. This time, it is not only satisfied with seizing a few sites, but also thoroughly annihilating the northern heroes, truly unifying the country and creating a new era.
After crossing the river smoothly, the army has been invincible all the way. There are such sharp weapons as the return gun in hand, which can be easily taken down regardless of the size of the city. Many cities were simply the surrender of the Chu army as soon as they arrived.
After all, the various advantages of the Chu army were so obvious that these few counties could not resist at all. Even if they were forced to fight, they would only increase casualties.
The chief officials of a few cities are quite bloody. They are determined to lead the whole city's army and people to fight a decisive battle with the Chu army. Even if they can't repel the rebels, it's worth it if they can hold the other side for a few more days and gain enough time for the court to prepare for counterattack.
However, because of the return artillery, the most solid city can not last for two days, and the city wall will be broken and the whole city will be occupied.
In just a little more than a month, the Chu army successfully captured the whole territory of Yuzhou and most of Yanzhou, and approached the outskirts of Luojing. Under the leadership of Longlin Fang, the governor of Dadu, the Navy landed from Xuzhou port, and the same went well. The territory that the imperial court of the Qi Dynasty can control is very few.
At this time, the lingering imperial court finally put aside the party struggle and internal strife for the time being. It was urgent to dispatch 300000 Jingying elite to intercept the Chu army. It was imperative to defeat the northern expedition of Chu state and recover the lost territory.
Therefore, today, the Chu army finally encountered a decent war. 250000 vs. 300000, and they are all elite and powerful teams. Under normal circumstances, it may take a lot of talents to win or lose.
However, what the imperial army did not expect was that the battle had not yet officially opened, and Qin Feng in the Chu army was launched. First, he broke the flag of the central army with a heavy sniper rifle, and then an RPG exploded the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army, Cheng Fu company of the Duke of Yue Kingdom, and his horse, to pieces. Even the nearby generals were not spared.
With the coming of the war, the command center of the imperial army was wiped out at one stroke. The great effect of this crisp beheading action is obvious.
It goes without saying that the army of the imperial court, whose morale plummeted, was in a disadvantageous situation from the very beginning. All the armies were not able to dispatch and command well, so they had to fight their own way. They were surrounded and eaten up by the Chu army.
In less than half an hour, the imperial army suffered heavy casualties, and groups of deserters began to appear.
Qin Feng was not idle, his eyes calm observation of the military array, all found the court's senior generals one by one, to make the other party worse.
“…… The whole army will attack and kill
Zhao Yuanjin saw that the time was almost right. Even if the general attack order was issued, all the rest of the army would not move except the Yulin forbidden army of Gongwei Wangjia.
