Chapter 415: Perseverance

Huo Zhenting stared at the enemy who was rushing up with a serious expression. The Sima family's army had more than 50,000 people launched a crazy attack on Baishupo, Jishan and Juhualing. The war had been stalemate for several days, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

"General Yun has returned to Xingling, and reinforcements will arrive soon. But we must hold on in the past few days!" Looking at Wan Shichang beside him, Huo Zhenting said.

"Our Sixth Battalion has more than 10,000 people stationed in three places. It is really insufficient. Lao Huo, have we given up Jishan and Baishupo and concentrated our troops to Juhualing?" Wan Shichang suggested: "I am afraid that it is difficult to defend everywhere if we divide our troops to garrison?"

"Shichang, I know this is not a solution, but we just joined the Anqing border army. This was our first battle, so we lost our position. How to gain a foothold in the Anqing border army in the future? Wouldn't General Yun look down on us? Therefore, even if we grit our teeth, we must keep it. We cannot lose an inch of land before the reinforcements arrive."

Wan Shichang was bored for a while, "The men fought hard enough. Why did the Sima family's army become so powerful?"

Huo Zhenting said coldly: "Our Anqing border army is now the only army in the north that is still resisting the Mongolian Yuan. The Sima family has made cordial bones and surrendered to the Mongolian people. Naturally, they are shameless and have hard bones. Therefore, they are more cruel than the Mongolian people. Only by destroying us can they not show their servitude and humility."

"Boys rely on others' power!" Wan Shichang snorted.

"The Sima family's army itself is not without strength. In the past, there were other factors that had been defeated repeatedly with the Mongols. In their army, there were many generals who were good at attacking and defending, which was more difficult to deal with than the Mongols. The Mongols had powerful field battles, but there were not many ways to attack the Jiancheng Gubao, but the Sima family was different." Huo Zhenting sighed, "These people all voted for the Mongols. Our lives will be getting harder and harder in the future."

"Old Huo, I'll go to Jishan, you'll be in Juhualing!" Wan Shichang said fiercely: "Since you can't retreat, then fight!"

"Be careful!" patted Wan Shichang's shoulder and Huo Zhenting said.

"Don't worry, these bastards can't kill me!"

Sima Rui had a blue face. Looking at the retreating soldiers, he shouted angrily: "Cut the head of the captain who led the team. Substitute people. Continue the attack!"

"General, please spare me!" The blood-covered captain screamed and begged for mercy, but Sima Rui had a blue face. The guards like wolves and tigers dragged the captain. In a moment, a bloody head was mentioned in front of Sima Rui.

Looking at the group of blue-faced generals in front of him, Sima Rui shouted coldly: "Continue to attack, and there will be those who retreat. This is the end, kill to Jishan and take Wan Shichang's head. Everyone will have a reward, otherwise, you will chop your head first."

"Subordinate to obey the order!"

Countless soldiers rushed to Jishan again shouting wildly. Sima Rui sneered at the Anqing border army flag flying above Jishan, "I want to see, how long can you last?"

Jishan is steep and easy to defend but difficult to attack. When the Meng people face this kind of defense, they cannot come up with any effective methods. However, in the eyes of the Central Plains generals, there are too many ways to increase the intensity of the attack and reduce the casualties of their own troops. Jishan's disadvantage is that it is too small and may not accommodate many troops. Huo Zhenting's Sixth Battalion's defense has been expanding to several miles below Jishan, but under Sima Rui's more than 10,000 people's attack, he was forced to retreat back to Jishan step by step. Now there are only more than 2,000 soldiers on Jishan. When Wan Shichang arrived, it was the most dangerous time. With the addition of this new force, the Jishan defenders made a concerted effort to drive the enemy down, but then, they ushered in a more crazier attack.

Sima Ren, the Sima family, mainly attacked Juhualing, Sima Yi, mainly attacked Baishupo, and Sima Rui, mainly attacked Jishan. The war was stalemate for a long time, but they could not make any progress in the face of the opponent's tenacious attack.

The Anqing coalition was at a loss. At this stage, the Anqing coalition was focused on Luzhou and was completely unprepared for the Sima family's surrender and attack. At Jianguan, there was only one battalion head of the Sixth Battalion, with more than 10,000 guard forces. It turned out that these troops were more than enough to deal with the Mongols who could not concentrate their strength against the Anqing border army. However, the Sima family's main force suddenly entered the battle, which caught the Anqing coalition off guard for a while.

But Huo Zhenting's desperate attack at Jian Pass won Yun Zhao precious time.

"Destroy the Sima family and then enter Tanzhou!" Yun Zhao slapped the table with heavy palms, looking at the generals gathered together on both sides of the long table, "I will lead Yan Xiaoyi's cavalry battalion to take the lead, Su Dingfang's first battalion, Zhou Guangyi's seventh battalion followed, we cannot give the enemy any breathing opportunity. Hu Zehua's second battalion immediately stepped in and advanced into Tanzhou after we defeated the opponent."

"yes!"

"Mr. Guo Changxing, Lord Guo!"

"There is the official!"

"You are fully responsible for logistics supply and material allocation!"

"Sir, obey the order!"

"Park Demeng!"

"The last one will be here!"

"Your headquarters has not been established for a long time and has not yet formed combat power. This time we will guard Yizhou and ensure that there are no mistakes in Yizhou."

"I will understand!"

"Ma Yigong!"

"There is the official!"

"You are in charge of Yizhou City, where you have just won it for a while, and people's hearts are not stable. At this time of war, we must ensure stability there."

"Yes, the officials understand that, in addition, you should organize the personnel to transport the grain storage in Yizhou City as soon as possible to Xingling and hand it over to Lord Guo. You will also be responsible for the transfer of the military ordnance in Guangchang!"

"yes!"

"Everyone performs his duties, let's act!"

"Anqing border army will win!" Everyone responded with a loud bang, bowed to Yun Zhao, turned to walk out of the hall, and the entire Xingling quickly turned into a large barracks. Teams of army horses drove in to replenish food, grass, and weapons, and then drove out again. On the road leading to Yizhou City and from Xingling to Guangchang, people and vehicles were endless, and long-distance wheelbarrows and flatbed trucks transported a large amount of food, grass, and weapons to Xingling, and then transferred from Xingling to Linggao, where was the logistics supply camp for this battle.

On the fifteenth day of the war, Jishan and Baishupo could no longer support it. Huo Zhenting had no choice but to order the two places to retreat, and the entire army was concentrated at Juhualing. At this time, the army of more than 15,000 people in the Sixth Battalion had suffered one-third of the casualties. In front of them, the more than 40,000 main forces of the Sima family, accompanied by the 3,000 cavalrymen who helped the battle, had already made final preparations for the attack.

"Start the attack!" Sima Ren looked at the Anqing border army flag on Juhualing and felt it was particularly dazzling. He was the governor of Tanzhou. When he was high, Yun Zhao was just a small captain of the Anqing border army. However, during the anti-Mongolian process, this inconspicuous hunter jumped to General Yunhui in a few years and became a national hero admired by all the people. In order to cooperate with the old man's plan, he gave up Tanzhou and was scolded by the crowd. The most arrogant departure of Su Can and others even threw him into a deadly death that could not be advanced or retreat. At this time, the old man sitting in the Tai Chi Hall had probably forgotten his chess piece long ago?

Defeat the opponent and prove to the world that he is stronger than Yun Zhao! He told himself in his heart.

Countless thunderbolt cannons fired at the same time, and dozens of kilograms of stone bullets covered the sky and the sun and attacked Juhua Ridge. Almost at the same time, the thunderbolt cannons on Juhua Ridge began to fight back, and countless stone bullets were flying in the air, and stone bullets collided in the air from time to time, and stone rain splashed everywhere.

Rows of soldiers attacked Juhualing under the stone rain. On the hillside that lasted several miles, there were chest walls, trenches, and stone forts, becoming the life-seeking Yama.

Unlike the Mongolian army, the Sima family has all kinds of attacking equipment, which is more and more square than the Juhua Ridge. After the two sides fired about one incense stick, the thunder cannons on Juhua Ridge were almost completely destroyed.

Wan Shichang hid behind a chest wall, avoiding the stone bombs flying from time to time from time to time from time to time. From time to time, small gravels fell down and hit the armor, making jingling sounds.

The power of the thunder cannon is too great. Most of the chest walls of the stone fort on Juhua Ridge were destroyed. The soldiers of the Sixth Battalion hid under the remaining chest walls, or behind huge rocks, and used the powerful crossbows and bows in their hands to shoot at the other side.

One hundred steps, eighty steps, fifty steps, forty steps! Wan Shichang held the big knife in his hand tightly, jumped up, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, kill me!"

Countless soldiers jumped up from the seemingly empty position and rushed along the passage towards the attacking soldiers.

Wan Shichang was like a fierce tiger, and his sword slashed left and right, cutting down the enemies one by one. Relying on the bottom-up impact advantage, the Sixth Battalion carried the first wave of offensives. On the hillside, there were corpses of falling lying on the hillside, flowing down the hillside in blood.

There was almost no rest time, so the second wave and the third wave were again. The soldiers of the Sixth Battalion were slowly pressed to the top of the mountain.

"Press up the reserve team and replace General Wan with a rest!" Huo Zhenting ordered on the top of the mountain. "Where have the reinforcements been there?"

"Report to the general, the first wave of reinforcements was General Yan's cavalry battalion, and it was still one day away from Jian Pass!" Behind him, a captain responded.

"One day!" Huo Zhenting's mouth was a little bitter. It was not easy to hold on to this strength of the attack for a day.

"Just just now, the opponent's cavalry suddenly left the camp. It must have discovered that our reinforcements were about to arrive, so I rushed to stop them. Now it's just that we can't withstand the opponent's attack!" Huo Zhenting murmured.

"General Huo, can General Yan defeat his opponent's cavalry? That cavalry is mainly composed of the Mongol cavalry. With the descendants of the Sima family, the number is 6,000 cavalry!" The captain behind him was a little unconfident.

"Don't worry, this time, General Yun Zhao personally led the team. General Yan's cavalry battalion plus the 1,000 cavalry of General Yun's relatives were defeated. Now, all we have to do is persevere and wait! Behind our cavalry, most of the troops will arrive. At that time, it is time for us to counterattack and deal with Sima Ren, the bastard. My 6th Battalion's blood will not flow in vain!"!~!
