When they arrived at the core area of ​​Xiaoqingshan, Cao Meng still assigned tasks to his two trusted generals.

Yang Zhi is in charge of the east front, and Zhao Bo is in charge of the other directions.

Although Yang Zhi was only in charge of one direction, the pressure on him was greater than that of Zhao Bo.

Zhao Bo's enemies can only fight through the dense forests, which are densely covered with traps made by Qinglong soldiers, and it is difficult for the Qi army to pose a threat to him.

- There are not so many traps on Yang Zhi's side, so he can only use the built fortress to resist the Qi army's attack.

The fort is stronger than the trap, but it can only be used for defense. Unless Cao Meng leads the army to counterattack the Qi army from other places, Yang Zhi will always be the passive side.

The day's offensive and defensive battle is over, and both Qian and Qi withdraw their troops to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

After fighting for a day, the soldiers on both sides are very tired. Even if the generals want to continue the fight, they still have to consider whether the soldiers still have physical strength?

Especially the Qi army, they are climbing the mountain to attack the fortress, which consumes more!

"Let's go here first today, let the soldiers withdraw and have a good night's rest, be careful at night, don't be attacked by dry troops!"

Dong Huan confessed a few words to the generals guarding the camp tonight, and then walked into the camp.

During the day, the Qi army tried to attack three times in total, once in the morning and twice in the afternoon. The two attacks in the afternoon were more intense and almost captured two forts.

Of course the casualties in the afternoon were greater than those in the morning.

"One day's tentative attack resulted in more than two hundred casualties. Those fortresses are a big problem!"

Dong Huan held his job with a big face in his hand, silently reviewing today's battle.

He found that some fortresses on the hillside were a bit strange, and there seemed to be no dry troops stationed inside.

Dong Huan: "There are two possibilities. One is that there are no Ganjun inside on the surface, but the Ganjun has already laid an ambush inside, waiting for me to take the initiative to break in!

The second is that these fortresses are tricky, they may not be real fortresses! "

After a day and night of calm thinking, Dong Huan still did not believe that the people of Qianguo could build so many forts in such a short period of time.

Eyes can sometimes deceive people, even yourself.

If there were really problems with those fortresses, Xiaoqingshan didn't seem so scary, and it wasn't that difficult to wipe out the Qianjun!

Be sure to launch an assault on those "strange" forts tomorrow to find out what's going on with them.

"By the way, I have to ask Wen Liang about the situation there. I don't know what the arrangements for Gan Jun are there."

In the past two days, Dong Huan has been busier than ordinary soldiers. During the day, he has to pay attention to the battle at the front line, and at night, he has to communicate with two generals of another army about the results of the day's battle.

Because today is the first day, Dong Huan must know more about the arrangement of the cadres in Xiaoqingshan. After he understands clearly, he won't be so busy at night.

Dong Huan waited for the scouts to send over information about another Qi army.

Compared with the Dong'an Army, the Qi Army led by Wen Liang and the others encountered a much more difficult situation with the Gan Army!

When Dong Huan started eating, Wen Liang was still busy getting his soldiers out of the jungle.

"Send another five hundred people to support the retreat of the soldiers on the mountain."

Wen Liang's face was solemn. In order to open a road in the dense forest to the top of the mountain, he had lost more than three hundred soldiers.

More than 130 people died directly, and most of the rest were seriously injured. Without timely medical treatment, they basically would not survive to leave the mountain.

Even if he can be saved, he will not be able to continue on the battlefield.

Even so gentle can not give up on them.

Now the wounded is not the most troublesome problem for Wen Liang, what troubles him the most is that there are still hundreds of soldiers in the dense forest on the mountain who have not withdrawn.

Those camps that have become ruins have proved the strength of the Qian army in night battles. .

Coupled with the advantage of the jungle terrain, the Qian army will definitely be able to wipe out the Qi army inside.

What Wen Liang has to do is to rescue his soldiers before they are killed by the Qinglong Army.

Only sending 500 people to support the retreat was not because he was reluctant to send more soldiers up, but because the jungle was not suitable for more troops to enter. 500 people were enough, and any more would only affect his own actions.

The most important thing at this time is not the number of people, but the time.

It is a victory to withdraw from the jungle before all the Azure Dragon Army is dispatched to kill everyone.

During the day, there were more than 400 soldiers of the Qi Army fighting against the Qinglong Army in the jungle on the mountain. They dispersed into three small teams and retreated slowly down the mountain.

In the morning, they fought very simply. A team of thousands of people intercepted various traps and soldiers of the Qinglong Army on the mountainside, causing heavy casualties.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, their advancing speed suddenly accelerated, and the Gan people couldn't hold on so quickly?

The captain who commanded them was worried that this was a conspiracy by the Qinglong Army, and specially warned them not to rush too fast, lest they be ambushed by the Qinglong Army.

The Qi army groped forward cautiously, but still encountered many traps, but the resistance of the soldiers of the Qinglong Army weakened a lot.

There must be a conspiracy!

Their offensive in the morning didn't hurt many members of the Azure Dragon Army at all, and now the Azure Dragon Army's sudden retreat must be a conspiracy.

As a result, he walked up the mountain for more than an hour, but found nothing, no conspiracy, no ambushes and sneak attacks.

On the contrary, the Qi army wasted valuable attack time. It was not until three or four o'clock in the afternoon that the Qi army slowly accelerated the speed up the mountain. The Qi army captain thought that he could occupy a place on the top of the mountain at night.

As a result, as soon as the sun set, the Azure Dragon Army rushed out from various places they didn't expect ~lightnovelpub.net~ directly severely injured them.

Even if the captain gave the order to retreat, going up the mountain is easy and going down is difficult, and the Azure Dragon Army will not let them go down the mountain easily.

Many traps appeared in the dense forest that had been cleared in the afternoon.

These traps are very simple, but the lethality is really impressive. The Qi army either stopped to clear the traps before going down the mountain, or used luck and casualties to break through.

Lieutenant Qi decided to use a two-pronged approach, let a group of people walk in the front, clear the traps, and open the way, and he led the people behind to defend against the sneak attack of the Qinglong Army.

Judging from the casualties alone, it must be that the Qi army defending against the sneak attack of the Qinglong Army in the rear suffered more casualties, but the Qi army responsible for opening the way ahead was under greater pressure.

There are not many Qinglong troops lurking in the dense forest on the mountainside, but the soldiers of the Qi army have to clear the traps and guard against the sneak attack of Qinglongju. They must not relax for a moment, and their heads are almost turning into electric fans.

If they are lucky enough to go down the mountain alive, the first thing they will do is to ask a doctor to help them check the cervical spine, whether it is broken or not, and they have lost consciousness!

More than 600 people suffered more than 200 casualties before retreating to the mountainside. At this time, the Qi army's situation became more difficult. More and more Qinglong troops were chasing up, and they could already be held back without traps.

Moreover, the soldiers' physical strength was about to be exhausted. Lieutenant Qi didn't know if the Qinglong Army had finished their meal. His soldiers didn't have time to eat. Now he felt his stomach was burning.

Hungry!

Also thirsty!

"General, if you come a little later, you will collect the corpses for us!"

It was rare to have a little time to rest, and Captain Qi finally had time to think about the issue of reinforcements.

Just now all his mind was on dealing with the Azure Dragon Army, and he didn't even have time to be afraid.

Now relax for a while, and all kinds of thoughts suddenly come to my mind.

Young captain!
