Three Kingdoms: I Have Unlimited Gifts

507、The Counterattack Before Death

"Report to the general, today our army has more than 400,000 casualties!""

Meng Gong almost vomited blood when he heard the summary of the battle damage.

Now, all the troops in the middle have gathered under Xuzhou City.

An army of one million attacked Xuzhou City, which was only guarded by 100,000 people, and even suffered 400,000 casualties, and they had not yet captured it.

"General, the loss of the Han army is not small, it is estimated that there are only 40,000 or 50,000 Han troops left in the city!

said a general.

Meng Gong nodded.

"Nine Nine Zeros" he didn't want to bypass Xuzhou City.

However, the combat effectiveness of the Han army is really too strong. Once they bypass it, what will happen when the Han army in Xuzhou city comes out to attack them?

Today's battle proves it.

The only advantage is that after this day's war, the 600,000 troops who survived can finally be called an army. They have seen blood and fought on the battlefield, and they are no longer the army of the people before.

"Go on the order, after dinner, continue to attack the city overnight!

Meng Gong said again.

This shocked the surrounding generals.

In ancient times, it was rare to siege a city overnight.

"Think about it carefully. Why haven't the reinforcements from the Han Kingdom appeared yet?"

Meng Gong said that he hated that iron could not become steel.

"That's right, why haven't the reinforcements from the big Han arrived yet?"

"It's only a hundred miles from Kaifeng Mansion, and the cavalry can arrive in less than an hour.

"Wait, is it...

Only then did the generals come to their senses.

It should be known that the Great Han Kingdom also deployed an army of more than 1.4 million on the territory bordering the Southern Song Dynasty.

If you throw away the Han troops from the east and west, there should be 50,000 to 600,000 Han troops in the middle. Where did the remaining 40,000 or 500,000 Han troops go?

Meng Gong also just came back to his senses.

"There is only one situation now, that is, the middle route army of the southern line of Dahan goes straight to the rear of our army..."

Meng Gong said bitterly.

"This is how to do."

"General, let's get back to defense quickly!"

"Once Dengzhou, Tangzhou and other cities fall, there will be no way for our army to retreat.

The generals felt a chill in their hearts.

"Return to defense? Do you think there is still a chance.

The bitterness on Meng Gong's face was even worse.

The Southern Song Dynasty was located in the south, and it did not produce war horses in the first place, and the entire army together did not have many cavalry.

And what about the Han army?

Located in the north, it is more than ten times more than the number of their war horses.

Kaifeng is more than 500 li from Dengzhou and other cities.

The cavalry can travel more than 200 li a day on a rapid march. What if one person rides two or three?

"I think the Han army will launch an attack on Dengzhou and other cities tomorrow morning at the latest. In one night, our army will definitely be unable to return to the rescue. According to the fighting strength of the Han army, at most tomorrow, at noon, Dengzhou and other cities will fall. Therefore, there is only one way of life in front of us now, to occupy Xuzhou before noon tomorrow, first to obtain a safe place, and then to find a good strategy or stick to waiting for help!

Meng Gong explained...

Hearing this, the generals present also knew that tonight would be the night that would decide their life and death.

All of a sudden, everyone went crazy.

"Attack! Those who retreat die!

"Don't stand still and die!

"Death to the Cowardly!"

Like a wave, the Song army held a torch and launched an attack on Xuzhou overnight.

4.8

However, what Meng Gong did not expect was that, at the same time, the Han army had launched an attack on Dengzhou and Tangzhou.

The cavalry marched in a hurry and traveled more than two hundred li a day, and they were ordinary cavalry.

Today, the Han Kingdom has unified the world, and its horses are all crossbred, the best horses in the world.

To put it bluntly, even if it is not as good as Chituma, it is not too far behind. Therefore, it only took ten hours for the Han army to arrive at Dengzhou and other cities.
