Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 4 Chapter 100: Hard hit

   Before the war, Huo Qubing, Liu Qi and the cavalry brigade stationed together with Di Qing’s regular brigade in Shanhaiguan.

At that time, Huo Qubing looked plain, and he didn't talk much in daily life. Only when he was training the cavalry brigade, his eyes were full of expression, but even at this time, Liu Qi carefully discovered that the opponent still appeared from time to time. Lonely look.

   Unlike now, Huo Qubing's whole person seems to be reborn, the whole person exudes a kind of light that makes him feel a little dazzling.

   Now that Liu Qi knows, the reason why Huo Qubing often sighed northward in the past is his yearning for the battlefield! Only on the battlefield can his value be brought into play!

   Perhaps in Liu Qi's opinion, this kind of value is best not to be reflected and displayed well, but everyone aspires to be different.

   Huo Qubing was always very active when Xia State launched a war against Baxter State.

   Marching is bitter? Worried about tactics? Headache for the large number of enemy troops? ... None of these exist for Huo Qubing!

   Marching is bitter? Is it hard to practice day and night in order to wait and welcome the coming of war?

   Worried about tactics? Familiar with the art of war, tactics are always there, and face up to difficulties...It's about him Huo Qubing.

   A headache because of the large number of enemy troops? Huo Qubing hopes that the more enemy troops, the better, so that the world can better let the world know his heroic name!

   Perhaps only during and after the war, when he saw the wounded, disabled, and sacrificed soldier, Huo Qubing's heart would quiet down, and he would bow his head and mourn together.

   Although he will be successful, Huo Qubing knows that war is not a child's play, and he also knows that these soldiers did not exist for his reputation!

   But when he launched a war for the country and the king, it is not unreasonable for him to become famous when he wins for the country and the king.

  ……

"Counsel Liu, don't worry, this general has already thought about it. After the enemy city is strictly guarded, this general will lead the soldiers to clean up from the east of the enemy city, block the road, and prepare for the arrival of the army." Huo Qubing said to Liu Qi. The question was not answered directly, instead he continued to explain the action plan he had thought up.

"Since the general has already thought about it, his subordinates will not ask more." Although Liu Qi didn't get an answer from Huo Qubing, Huo Qubing said so, he can be regarded as letting go of half of his heart, and the remaining half of his heart. He can only let go of it when the army from behind really arrives.

   Another thing that made Liu Qi put down his heart is that this place is only two or three days away from Xia's army, and the cavalry brigade has five days of food and grass, and it is rich enough.

   The next day, Huo Qubing and Liu Qi galloped towards Baxter City, ten kilometers to the west, with the cavalry brigade, and arrived outside the city before noon. This was the real soldiers approaching the city.

In the city, just after Aubrey gave orders to the trusted guards, another guard rushed into the room, panting, and reported to Aubrey in a panic: "Report...Report to Lord Sovereign, Xia Jun... Xia Jun is... already outside the city!"

   Aubrey felt that something was going to happen when he saw the panicked guard. After listening to the guard's intermittent report, he seemed to be hit by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and he was shocked.

   The town of Stark, which was only found to the east this morning, was already under attack by Xia Jun. I didn't expect that after only a few hours, Xia Jun would come outside the city. How terrible Xia Jun should be with such a fast offensive speed!

   "My lord, my lord?" The guard shouted twice before Aubrey came back to his senses, and the first sentence he came back to asking was: "Hurry up and send someone to call for reinforcements!"

   "Yes, Lord Monarch." The guard was about to go out to give orders, and Aubrey reached out and shouted, "Wait."

   Aubrey finally recovered a bit of his senses in the guard's puzzled gaze, and asked, "How many people have Xia Jun come? Is there a siege?"

"My lord Qi, Xia Jun has nearly 10,000 people here, all riding Xia Guo horses without horns. They should be given to Xia Guo's knights. Now the other party has made preparations for attacking the city outside the city." Seeing that the lord of his family had finally recovered his composure, he also had a feeling in his heart.

   Aubrey frowned and thought: "The Knights of Xia Kingdom? There are less than 10,000 people, and they are still preparing to attack the city? Isn't this looking for death?"

Even though he thinks so, Aubrey still knows that since Xia Jun can defeat his army of nearly 200,000 with an army of less than 50,000, there is no way that the Knights outside the city dare to attack the city with less than 10,000. What's so strange.

   If it were other forces, Aubrey would definitely send troops out of the city to destroy the other party immediately. That would make the other party so arrogant, but the more Xia Jun came, he couldn't treat it with common sense.

  Ob can be considered to understand through these two battles. When dealing with Xia's army, you can't just look at the number of troops on the surface of the opponent. The true combat power is at least this number multiplied by ten!

  In other words, the knights outside the city with less than ten thousand will be regarded as a hundred thousand army! Thinking about it this way, he immediately knew how stupid it was for him to send 50,000 or 120,000 troops to trouble Xia Jun before.

   Xia Jun, why is there an army of less than fifty thousand, that is clearly an army of five hundred thousand, okay! He sent a total of less than 200,000 troops. Isn't that the reason he is looking for death?

Now it’s alright. I didn’t win the battle. Instead, I lost the army. With the 30,000 troops in Baxter City, the cavalry regiments outside the city could not defend, let alone the main force of Xia’s army~www.novelmtl.com~ think. After passing this, Aubrey sat on the ground with a desperate face in the guard's suspicious gaze.

  Because he discovered that even during the Baxter Nation's victory, the nation's military strength was less than 300,000, and it was impossible to defeat Xia Nation's 500,000! How can this not make him desperate?

"I knew... I knew..." Aubrey murmured to himself, so that the guards didn't know what to do. If you didn't go, you didn't want to go. He had to bite the bullet and asked nervously: "My lord, Do I still need to pass the order? Xia Jun seems to be attacking the city."

If Aubrey didn’t take care of the guards, he was completely silent in his fantasy. He had already scared himself. Facing the powerful Xia army, he couldn’t resist it. Even if he wanted to agree to Xia’s conditions, Baxter The national strength of the country, even if he wants to promise him, he can't do it!

   Suddenly, more than just the guards were in a dilemma, he was also in a dilemma for Aubrey. Since there is no choice, he can only resign himself to fate!

   In fact, Aubrey’s comparison of the strength of Xia’s army was only half of his guess, that is, the standard of military strength, and the other half was related to non-intuitive reasons such as logistics, the pressure of soldiers and generals, the right time and place, and the strategy of warfare.

   If you really use the army of this world to force the comparison, at some point the combat power of Xia's army may only be ten times higher!
