Chapter 442: The Tartar generals are confident of victory, but there are always unexpected events
"Dodo, haven't you always been dissatisfied with me?"
Outside Jinzhou City, in front of the Tartar army, Haoge looked at Duoduo beside him and said disdainfully, "This time, let's compete to see who can lead his soldiers into the city first!"
"How about whoever loses gives you his most precious treasure?"
As the saying goes, there is no wall that is impenetrable. Although the brothers Dorgon and Doduo hid their ultimate divine weapons very well, the truth of the battle between Dorgon and Cao Bianjiao nearly two months ago inevitably fell into the ears of the generals of various banners of the Later Jin Dynasty.
Although Hauge has never seen the natal magic weapons of the brothers Dorgon and Dodo, it does not prevent him from setting a trap for Dodo.
Like Haoge, Duoduo was also a man with more courage than strategy. Upon hearing this, he immediately became furious and said, "Let's compete! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
As a nephew, it would be fine if Hauge didn't respect his uncle, but he even often made sarcastic remarks to him. Anyone would be angry, let alone Duoduo, who had a bad temper and was easily angered.
In the past, Duoduo couldn't stand Haoge who took advantage of his power to bully others. After all, he had already broken through to the initial level of the sixth level of cultivation and was among the top masters of human forces today. Did he have to continue to endure the bullying?
"Okay, then it's settled!"
Seeing that his provocation had worked, Hauge's eyes flashed with joy, and he immediately high-fived the other party as an oath.
With so many generals watching nearby, he was not worried that the other party would default on his debt.
Unless Tudor no longer wants his reputation.
As for Haoge, who has reached the peak of level five, why is he so confident in making a bet with Duoduo, who is at the early stage of level six?
Of course, it’s not that he is stupid, but because of Huang Taiji’s favoritism, Haoge’s natal spirit beast is a late level six black dragon.
Compared with the black dragon in the late stage of level six, Duoduo in the early stage of level six is nothing.
Although the two yellow flags entered the pass last spring and suffered heavy losses after being defeated by the Fuxing Army, over the past year or so, through Huang Taiji's various plans, including disbanding the men and replenishing the flags, and recruiting a large number of dead soldiers from the Solon tribe to join the army, their strength has been fully restored.
On the other hand, although the two white flags suffered little loss in the battle with Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou last year, they have still not recovered to their peak strength.
This is the power of Huang Taiji’s tactics, which allows you to suffer a great loss without leaving any trace, while you cannot find any fault with him on the surface.
Now, each of the two yellow flags has a 90,000-strong Sauron death squad, which is equipped for siege warfare.
"kill!"
"Attack Jinzhou City and kill Li Dingguo!"...
Having learned from the last lesson, Huang Taiji divided the attacking troops into two groups, maintained sufficient general reserve forces, and began the siege in an orderly manner.
The first siege troops were the Bordered Yellow Banner led by Hauge and the Plain White Banner led by Duoduo.
"Sunahai, the battle command of our Bordered Yellow Banner will be handed over to you!"
Haoge had already made plans, and ordered his most capable subordinate, Gushan Ezhen Sunahai, "I will work with my mount, the spirit beast Jiaolong, to assist in the siege while looking for opportunities in the air."
After saying that, he quickly jumped onto the back of his natal spirit beast, the dragon, which had been waiting for a long time, and flew towards the sky above Jinzhou City.
"Roar!"……
In order to maintain a strong enough attack power, the 500,000 soldiers of the Bordered Yellow Banner and the Plain White Banner who arrived outside Jinzhou City this time were simply divided into two military formations and took turns attacking.
The military killing formation, which consisted of 250,000 people, transformed into two heavenly wolf beasts about 700 feet in size after the killing formation magic power was activated. They withstand the heavy artillery fire fired from Jinzhou City and began to attack Jinzhou City.
The advantages and disadvantages of this siege mode are obvious.
The advantage is that it can consume a large amount of the enemy's psychic artillery shell reserves, and can also use the military killing array to protect the attacking soldiers and prevent casualties.
The disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, it cannot last long. At most, it can withstand the concentrated fire of the psychic artillery in the city for about half an hour, and then it has to retreat to rest and recover the blood and energy of the soldiers and the consciousness of the Qi Refining Realm generals.
Fortunately, Huang Taiji, who had learned enough lessons, was fully prepared for this. The Later Jin soldiers who were attacking the city were divided into four flags and eight batches, which was enough to ensure that while the siege continued, the soldiers could take turns to get sufficient rest and recovery.
Dorgon made the same choice as Hauge. He handed over the command of leading the army to attack the city to his subordinate Gushan Ezhen, and he himself rode his natal spirit beast, the dragon, into the sky and wandered over Jinzhou City.
Because of Huang Taiji's favoritism, except for the Black Dragon King who had reached the peak of level six and became Huang Taiji's own natal spirit beast, the remaining two black dragons in the late stage of level six became Aobai and Haoge's natal spirit beasts.
Dorgon only got a level six mid-stage dragon spirit beast.
But he was unable to raise any objections.
After all, the Black Dragon Clan was conquered by Huang Taiji himself.
As Abai was the unrivaled genius of the Later Jin clan, and Hauge was the son of Huang Taiji, they both deserved better mounts.
It was considered very generous of Huang Taiji to give Dorgon a dragon with the cultivation level of the middle stage of the sixth level.
As the most top-level spiritual beast in the world, most of the sixth-level dragons have awakened their innate magical powers.
These nine black dragons, which became the guardian beasts of the Later Jin clan, all, without exception, awakened their innate magical powers.
They themselves have powerful physical defense talents. The black dragons that take turns flying over Jinzhou City emit a dark light shield from their huge bodies, covering themselves and the masters on their backs.
The psychic artillery fire from within the city focused its attack, bombarding their defensive shields, which was like tickling them, let alone hurting them.
"These dragons are so arrogant!"
"you do not say!"
"Unfortunately, the commander-in-chief has ordered our army to focus on defense and counterattack for the time being. We have no choice but to swallow our anger for a while."
"Hehe! When the commander-in-chief comes back, they will be in for a treat!"...
The generals of the Pixiu Corps and the Royal Guard Corps who were commanding the soldiers to conduct defensive operations in the city felt very aggrieved and were talking about it.
Among the people here, only Cao Bianjiao has seen the ultimate trump card hidden by the Fusion Army: the innate divine beast, the seven-clawed golden dragon.
If that were to be said, it would probably scare a lot of people!
Therefore, Cao Bianjiao, who knew the situation well, was not panicked at all, nor was he in a hurry to lead his troops to counterattack.
Under the current circumstances, even if he led the army out of the city and formed a battle formation to counterattack the enemy, he would not be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. At most, he could maintain an undefeated situation for a while. It was really a waste of time.
Moreover, the Tartars had so many soldiers, more than double the number of their own soldiers defending the city. Even if Li Dingguo returned to Jinzhou City in time and brought the little golden dragon, he could only eliminate the enemy's trump card, the black dragon clan. No matter how powerful the little golden dragon was, it was only at the peak of level six, and could not crush the enemy's large-scale military formation led by a level six strongman.
If they want to truly defeat or even destroy the Later Jin clan, they still have to rely on the Fuxing Army itself.
With the Renaissance Army's forces now scattered everywhere, it is impossible to achieve this in the short term.
This can only be done after the Fuxing Army has stabilized and organized the vast territory north of the Yellow River, and then mobilized enough troops to fight a decisive battle with the Later Jin clan.
Cao Bianjiao, who already knew that the Great Golden Eagle's innate magical power had been raised to the minor success realm, looked sternly at the black dragons that were showing off their might in the sky above Jinzhou City, and sneered in his heart, "Just be arrogant for a few days."
"With the Great Jin's spatial magical power, it won't take long to travel back and forth between the base camp outside the Great Wall and Jinzhou City."
"When the time comes, when the ancestors of you dragons arrive, you will realize how wrong you were!"
"After destroying these dragons, our army immediately formed a battle array and attacked, taking advantage of the enemy's panic and defeating Huang Taiji in one fell swoop."
"This time, the battle with the Later Jin Tartars will also cause Huang Taiji to flee in defeat, and even make him doubt his life."
The greater the expectations the Later Jin clan has for the nine national guardian beasts now, the greater the disappointment they will suffer when the time comes.
Huang Taiji's Eight Banners Army of the Later Jin had very good combat effectiveness and a large number of troops, but if a fatal blow could be dealt to their military morale, a defeat would be inevitable.
"Li Mei, go and calm the guards' emotions. Let them be ready to form a battle formation and fight back at any time while defending the city."
Cao Bianjiao, who knew what was going on, immediately sent a message to Li Mei, the commander of the Royal Guards, who was looking out of the city, saying, "The commander-in-chief has his own ways to defeat the enemy, and he is almost back to Jinzhou."
Knowing that Cao Bianjiao never bothered to lie, and since he said so, he must be absolutely sure. Li Mei's originally anxious mind immediately calmed down.
Like Cao Bianjiao, she quickly calmed the emotions of her generals and secretly made preparations to leave the city and counterattack.
They now have two large legions with a total of 700,000 soldiers here. It's not that they don't have the ability to fight the enemies outside the city, but that there is no need for the time being.
Time passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye it was the third day.
At this time, the city of Jinzhou was shrouded in a huge city defense formation, with the light flickering dimly in varying degrees of brightness. It seemed that it had reached its limit and was on the verge of collapse.
Facts have proved that no matter how solid a city defense formation is, as long as it is within the normal range, it will have its limit.
The soldiers of the four flags of the Later Jin Tartar were divided into eight main battle teams to form a large military killing formation. Under the continuous violent attacks day and night, the Jinzhou city defense formation, which was as strong as the Ming Dynasty capital, could not bear it anymore.
“Hahaha… I just want to see how desperate this cowardly Renaissance Army will become after losing the city defense formation!”
"There has been no response from the city for such a long time. Could it be that Li Dingguo is not in Jinzhou City?"
"Now that you mention it, it's really possible!"
"No matter whether Li Dingguo is in the city or not, we have decided to take over Jinzhou City!"
"Yes, yes! Once the city defense formation is broken, we will have six giant dragons patrolling in the sky. The soldiers of the Fuxing Army in the city will have nowhere to escape and will all be dead!"...
The generals of the four flags of the Later Jin Dynasty, who were commanding their soldiers to strike while the iron was hot and launch a fierce attack on the crumbling city defense formation, looked towards the Jinzhou City in front of them with great envy, with cold bloody light flashing in their eyes.
In particular, the core figures headed by Huang Taiji, Hauge, Duoduo and Dorgon had the most complicated expressions and were all making their own wishful calculations.
There is no other reason, it's just that Li Dingguo and Cao Bianjiao's natal artifacts have been regarded as theirs.
Following the grassland strongman's rule that whoever gets it owns it, they have already made corresponding preparations for the charge, and are only waiting for the city defense formation ahead to be officially broken before they begin to put it into practice.
At that time, it will depend on who has more sophisticated means.
Anyway, we are sure to win this battle. The only difference is the size of the results achieved.
……
However, the situation in Jinzhou City at this time was completely different from what Huang Taiji and his men had imagined.
Yesterday evening, Da Jin, who was able to lock onto Jinzhou City as a space shuttle node, directly used his innate magical power to bring Li Dingguo and Xiao Jinlong back to Jinzhou City quietly and promptly.
As for Ningyuan City, the siege force of the Later Jin Tartars is a level lower than that of Jinzhou, so they can hold out longer. Once the crisis in Jinzhou is dealt with, it will still be in time for them to rush over with the Great Jin.
From the beginning to the end, Li Dingguo, who had his trump card, the little golden dragon, did not take the nine black dragons, the guardian beasts of the Later Jin Tartars, seriously.
To him, these level six dragons were never a threat, but rather a means of delivering food.
Yes, that’s right, I’m here to deliver food.
I have never eaten dragon meat before, and Wan'er has been talking about it for countless times. This time, I can finally get what I want.
But even without the nine level six dragons, Huang Taiji's Later Jin clan is still a top human force.
Even if he used the little golden dragon to destroy the nine black dragons, the troops on his side of the defense line inside the pass were still not enough to defeat the Later Jin clan that had come out in full force head-on, let alone destroy them in one battle.
The Later Jin clan during this period was indeed very powerful. Even with the same number of troops, they could easily compete with any main army of the Restoration Army.
The Fuxing Army now has only four major legions with a total of million people gathered in the Liaoxi Corridor.
This is because the Pixiu Legion and the Taotie Legion have been expanding rapidly in recent times.
Compared with the four million troops led by Huang Taiji himself, the number was far less.
Even if we unexpectedly killed those level six dragons, we could only temporarily repel the enemy while their morale was greatly dampened.
Li Dingguo, who returned to Jinzhou City in time yesterday, did not rush to let the little golden dragon to deal with the black dragons that were showing off their power outside the city. Instead, he summoned the core generals of the Royal Guard Corps and the Pixiu Corps to make a comprehensive counterattack plan.
Only in this way can we defeat the Tatar army outside the city unexpectedly and resolve the crisis facing Jinzhou City.
