Chapter 277: The prelude to the battle

Although this battle made me depressed, I still had to brag after I went back, otherwise where would the morale come from if the soldiers thought they were defeated? So after I went back, I was a great hero and said that I had fought an extremely brilliant battle, killing more than 100,000 enemies, and I was killed by only 30,000 casualties. I also killed one sword saint and escaped one seriously injured. Even the great magician Ketan was injured and fled! Even Prince Sisir was severely injured! When the soldiers below heard this, even the enemy's sword saint could be killed and even the enemy's commander could be severely injured. What a great victory? For a moment, Qatar City was overjoyed and celebrated, and the morale was shocked again!

By the same token, Prince Sisir did not say that he lost when he returned. Instead, he boasted that he had expected the enemy to set up an ambush first, and severely injured the Qinglong Iron Cavalry, killing and injuring tens of thousands of enemies, and seriously injuring the enemy commander Long Xiaotian, with great results! As for his own casualties, he ignored them directly. He even said that the death of the commander of the First Division of Carter was his own beheading for the military discipline and used the police as a police officer! Then there was a series of commendation activities! Because his troops had fought hard all night, he decided not to leave the next day and celebrated it first!

In private, Prince Sisier took the heads of the centurion-plus officers who ran out of the First Division and went to the Silver Fox Legion to apologize! Although the commander of the Silver Fox Legion, Maimaiti, was angry that the tribe was killed, it was a hindering Prince Sisier's face, and secondly, he was also Carter's army. Moreover, his son did not obey the command last night, which caused extremely serious consequences. He was killed according to the law, and Prince Sisier didn't care. In addition, the heads of so many main culprits had been cut off, so he said that he would no longer care about this matter and would continue to serve the country!

Unfortunately, Prince Sisier pressed the gourd and started to comfort him, but he stopped doing it! The second prince's vanguard was beaten by the Qinglong Iron Cavalry, and he died if he died. But since he won a battle, he had to give some credit, right? But Prince Sisier not only did not mention the matter of the First Division in terms of credit, but later chopped off all the officers of the First Division who ran back! But he was so angry that he had to look at the owner even if he beat the dog. He, the prince of the leading army, did not hear any news, and his officers were chopped up hundreds of officers. How could the second prince give up?

So he brought the guards to come to Prince Sisir to argue! At this time, the prince had just returned from the Silver Fox Legion and was sitting next to his master and talking.

His master, Water Sword Saint, is an old man over a hundred years old. He is now lying weakly on the bed. Although his external injuries have been cured by the light magic, internal injuries are not so easy to heal! Although the uncle's fatal sword was blocked by his mental protection state, his huge force still broke his sternum, his internal organs were broken, and he vomited blood, all with flesh. Such injuries. In a few months, he should not get out of bed, and his eyes have been blinded. Unless a person at the level of the Twelve Cardinal casts him a level 11 light spell, he will be blind forever!

"Uncle!" After seeing Prince Sisir, the second prince shouted loudly regardless of the patients on the bed: "Why did they kill me? Aren't they fighting for the country?"

Seeing that he was so unreasonable to his master, Prince Sisir immediately felt a little disgusted and said coldly: "They violate military discipline and should be executed!"

"What military discipline did they commit? Didn't they just kill a few untouchables by mistake?" The second prince said disapprovingly: "Then you can't kill them all, right? At most, just scold them?"

"They killed more than 5,000 people! Is it enough to scold me?" Prince Sisir said angrily: "What will the Silver Fox Legion think? They must not rebel immediately?"

"Do they dare, we have a million troops here, and they only have 300,000 people. Do you dare to move?" The second prince said disdainfully: "If you dare to move, I will destroy him first!"

"You!" Prince Sisir had nothing to say to his idiot nephew. He had to say angrily: "Get out for me!"

"But, you must give me an explanation if you kill me!" The second prince said unyieldingly!

"What are you going to do?" Prince Sisir said disdainfully: "I am the commander of the entire army. Who do you want to kill should you explain to you?"

"You! Don't go too far!" Although he said that, the second prince really had no choice but to Prince Sisir!

"Oh! You!" Prince Sisier suppressed his anger and said to the second prince with a heartfelt voice: "We are strong now, but our enemy, the Han Kingdom, is not weak. If there is a Silver Fox Legion, we will have a much greater chance of winning. But once they rebel, and give it to us when the battle is critical! You can't even cry at that time! Do you know?"

"But, my people died too unfairly, right?" the second prince said slightly calmer!

"I will record them all as the deaths!" Prince Sisir said: "Is this OK?"

"Okay!" The second prince said reluctantly!

"Finally I want to warn you!" Prince Sisir instructed: "I know you have many problems. But this is going to war, not outings and hunting, so I didn't ask you to take women. If you can't control yourself, you can go back by yourself. But don't make such stupid mistakes as Titia, otherwise, don't blame our military law for being ruthless!"

"Oh! I understand!" The second prince left impatiently! Obviously, he did not take this uncle seriously! Moreover, this guy has a deep rebellious mentality. The less you ask him to do anything, what he must do! Prince Sisir was counterproductive this time!

"Oh! I'm really afraid that he will cause trouble!" Prince Sisir said helplessly to his master!

"Child! This time I see you feeling a little confused!" McHart smiled and said to his disciple: "I remember that no matter how difficult the battle you had in the past, you could treat it calmly and gracefully?"

"Oh!" Prince Sisir sighed: "It's different from the past! This is the first time I feel tired. This boy from the Long family is harder to deal with than anyone I have ever seen!"

"Is it harder than your junior Nicholas?" McHart asked strangely!

"Yes, teacher!" Prince Sisir said depressedly: "Nicholas is invincible on the battlefield. Although he is also very powerful in other aspects, he is obviously incomparable with his military talent. If I fight him, I don't have to be so uncomfortable! As long as I put my heart outside the battlefield, I have a 70% chance of winning! But since I took office, I have almost never won the open and secret battle with this kid! Especially in the battle last night, the trap I designed was seamless, and he would never see it, but why did he still leave a way out? I can't figure it out?"

"Haha! Maybe he is used to being a thief, so he leaves a trap on the way to escape. Is this very natural?" The Sword Saint of Water, Mahart, teased!

"Maybe!" Prince Sisir said with a frown: "However, in comparison, I am more worried about the combat power of the Qinglong Iron Cavalry. I besieged three times their troops, but the result is that if my casualties are three times that of his, it would be too exaggerated, right?"

"Haha! Don't forget that there were Long Xiaotian and his son yesterday, so you met the absolute elite of their Long family, and your Tiger Xiao army has not been dispatched?" McHart said briefly: "So there is still a victory or defeat between you!"

"Even so, the casualties ratio is still too different. If it were the Dihuhuang Legion before, it would be so much worse!" Prince Sisier said with a little regret, and then he complained depressedly: "And his 2,000 Crazy Dragon Iron Cavalry is even more perverted. He actually killed me 10,000 Tiger Roar Army without any power to fight back. The Earth Dragon can be so high. I still call it a living? Fortunately, he only has a few thousand. If he had 10,000 people, there would be no need to fight this battle, and I would admit defeat!"

"Aren't you still naval troops useless?" McHart persuaded!

"Oh! It's because of the existence of the navy. I barely have the courage to fight, but the current situation is actually very unfavorable to us!" Prince Sisier said to his teacher with a guilty expression: "We have lost all our masters now, Lanx is dead in battle, and you can't afford to be seriously injured. The great magician Toktan is now refusing to be seriously injured and will leave! If there is no expert help, this battle will be impossible! So, teacher! I want to ask you to introduce some of your friends to me!"

The Sword Saint of Water, McHart frowned and said nothing for a long time!

"Teacher, I know this makes you embarrassed! But the students really have no choice?" Prince Sisier said in a crying voice: "If you cannot get back the occupied territory in a short period of time, as long as the Han Dynasty establishes rule in three or five years, it will be almost impossible to get it back! Moreover, we have no dangers to defend, but they have the natural danger of Liuhua River. As long as you are happy, the Han Dynasty can threaten Carter's other half of the country at any time! If this continues, will Carter's destruction be sooner or later?"

"Don't say it! I'll write a few letters for you to see if those old friends are still alive? We haven't seen each other for a long time!" McHart said with a helpless smile!

"Thank you, teacher!" Prince Sisier crawled on the teacher like a child and cried bitterly! Because he knew that his teacher was an extremely strong person and never wanted to bother his friends. The only time in his life was for him, an incompetent student, which really made Prince Sisier feel guilty!

After the Carter army rested for a day, they continued to set off. This time they rushed a few more steps until ten miles away from Katal City to camp! With the lessons from the First Division ahead, Prince Sisir was more careful this time! After setting up a tent, he also ordered the construction of defenses on the spot, digging traps, and building earthen walls, and it is necessary to build the camp to a solid level!

More than one million troops were camped out for nearly a hundred miles. All of us generals were stunned when we saw it on the top of the city! We rarely saw the spectacular scene of a million troops camping before, but now we can see it clearly! That busy look was really shocking. From a distance, people were like little ants, everywhere, and they were so dark that they could not see it at first sight!

"There are so many people!" Kabat Minmeng said, the commander of the First Division!

"Nonsense! Is it more than one million?" Fordman, the commander of the 4th Division, said: "What are you afraid of? You just cut a few more times. We are not a lot of people!"

"Who is afraid!" Kabat was unhappy and said, "I dare to go out and kill you now!"

"You got it? You lost half of the people once you go out. If you go again, you won't be wiped out?" Fordman teased!

"Haha!" The other guys also laughed!

"You!" Kabat couldn't hold back his face, and he was about to be anxious!

"Don't make a fuss!" I glared at them and said, "Although the First Division of Kabatland suffered heavy casualties, the results of the battle were brilliant. Who of you has never died in a war?"

They stopped talking! Kabat said with a happier expression: "They are just jealous of me for making great contributions!"

"It's great! Let's look at the front of me!" I said depressedly: "I originally wanted to play with them at night, but now you can see, is Prince Sisir going to camp? Or build a city? As for such a big fight?"

"Haha! Who told the young marshal that you are famous? Prince Sisier just suffered a big loss! Can he be careless? If you ask you to easily take down one of his divisions, wouldn't he be so embarrassed?" Wen Hua, the commander of the Second Division, smiled!

"Yes! Yes! Who said that the young master is so powerful!" those guys also echoed!

"It's better not to have such a false reputation!" I smiled indifferently and said, "But now, the night harassment plan we have formulated before is about to be ruined!"

When Prince Sisir was marching, I started to formulate a night harassment plan. I planned to use the night cover to secretly send small troops to cross the river from other places to raid and harass the Carter army, causing restlessness to sleep at night, and achieve the goal of affecting their daytime combat status! But now with such strict protection, my plan may be abortion!

"Yes! This military camp is like a turtle shell. How can you attack the sneak attack?" Wenhua also said in embarrassment!

"Forget it. At worst, let's give up the plan. Anyway, our positive defense measures have been done very well. As long as Prince Sisir dares to attack hard, I will ask him, the tiger king to knock down a few teeth!" I smiled confidently!

My confidence is not as good as a blow, but comes from the careful preparations these days. The East City of Qatar is now a large barracks, and all the people have been withdrawn by me. 300,000 infantry are stationed here, and 50,000 cavalry are on standby at any time! The facilities in the city have also been renovated accordingly. Even if the Carter army broke through the city gate and entered the city, I am definitely confident that I will persist in the last month and two months!

After the transformation of the city defense by Nu Dao, there are now eight more watchtowers near the inner side of the city wall, all with brick and stone structures. The tower is very high and the top is small. They can only stand two or three people. Their land is not to kill the enemy. Instead, they are responsible for commanding the long-range attack troops under the tower. These troops are composed of a catapult chariot brigade, a long bowman brigade and a heavy crossbow brigade. Their ranges are very long and can easily cross the barriers of the city wall to attack the enemy. They do not need to aim, just follow the command of the flag on the tower and complete various commands under the command of their commander!

Their instructions are usually a few points of elevation angle, how much force is used! Then shoot. Because their range has been calculated in advance and divided into areas. And after a month of drilling, the action is very fast and accurate! Such regional coverage strikes are very powerful, which is more amazing than before. The method of setting up long-range firepower points on the city wall is so powerful! After seeing the exercises conducted by the attack brigade that I trained, several division commanders were amazed and admired!

In addition, I also carried out some other transformations and arranged many Yin people in the city to ensure that Prince Sisier could not afford it!

Prince Sisir was really patient. For three days, his army did nothing, just built camp defense. Millions of troops worked day and night for three days! There was an artificial scenery outside Kataer City, and countless traps were dotted among countless tents, each of which was three meters deep and four meters wide, depending on the situation. Such defense measures can effectively resist the impact of cavalry. Just these pits will destroy our Long family's most famous Qinglong Iron Cavalry!

In addition to the pit, there are also some soil buns. They are piled up from the digging of soil, but they are not piled up at will. They all have a certain order and function! They are used to cover important departments or as a warning for attention. They are different! Once such a formation is set out, Prince Sisir will be invincible first! At least he has no worries, and can attack and retreat or defend. Especially the logistics of food and grass, he has been deeply hidden in the trap. If he wants to burn other people's food by sneak attacks, he should not think about it! Such a cautious style is my most annoying opponent. Unfortunately, he still has a hundred secret combs and found a fatal crack by me. Let's take a look in the future? Haha!

After Prince Sisir's camp was completely set up, he sent someone to send me a letter, which said that he wanted to meet with our father and son and Nicholas before the war officially began, and to talk about his friends! The location is five miles away from the city, which is in the middle of us. Both of us came out to create a temporary pavilion, without any idle people on both sides!
Chapter completed!
