Chapter 552 Take Little Rock

Shi Xiu called the deputy general in charge of intelligence to the front again, "How is the battle on the top of the mountain?"

The deputy general didn't think anything this time, he had expected Shi Xiu to ask this question before he came.

"General, the scouts from the two military strongholds have not come down yet, and I have already sent people to the mountain to investigate the situation.

but......"

Shi Xiu glanced at the deputy general who was hesitant to speak, and said, "Speak up if you have something to say!"

"Yes, I'm afraid the top of the mountain has fallen."

Shi Xiu was not angry, he had such a preparation in his heart.

But reinforcements still had to be sent, even if they couldn't support the military stronghold on the top of the mountain, at least they had to find out the enemy's intelligence.

To deal with this unknown enemy, it is definitely not enough to rely on scouts outside the city.

It is still necessary to fight with real swords and guns in order to have a deeper understanding of the enemy.

Ang Ran couldn't be like last night. The battle was fought with real knives and guns, but he was completely suppressed by the enemy, and he couldn't see the real strength of the enemy at all.

This time Shi Xiu used all her strength to fight against the guards.

Who said that defending the city must be on the city wall, and it must be defended.

As long as the besiegers are eliminated, the defense of the city will naturally succeed.

Shi Xiu's age is less than forty years old, she is in her prime, and her spirit is high.

He still has the ambition to become a famous general of the Shun Kingdom. You must know that there are only two famous generals in the Shun Kingdom, which are titles recognized by the entire Zhongzhou.

Although Niu Xing is the right general of Shun country, he has not been recognized by other countries, mainly Qi and Chu, so he is only a famous general in Shun country.

Shi Xiu wanted to be a famous general in Zhongzhou, not a famous general in Shunguo, so what he wanted to do was to conquer every enemy he faced, instead of struggling to defend against the enemy's attack.

Not even an easy defense!

Fortunately, he is still sane now, or the Divine Guard has not been regarded as a serious problem by him, otherwise this time he must be the one who leads the army himself.

"Let Yang Qing go with me later."

Although Yang Qing's soldiers suffered heavy losses, he was at least the first general to fight the enemy.

With him, it might be able to play a miraculous effect.

This time Shi Xiu mobilized 6,000 troops out of the city to support, which was already a quarter of the total troops in Little Rock City.

If the support army is wiped out at the foot of the mountain, the defensive pressure on Little Rock will be much greater.

But Shi Xiu was willing to take the risk.

Yang Qing and another general led 6,000 people from the north gate to Xiaoshishan, which is less than five miles away from Xiaoshicheng.

It was here that he was ambushed by Yang Yuan last night, and only 1,500 of the 3,000 people fled back.

If he hadn't led the guards to resist, I am afraid that there would not be more than a thousand people who could return to Little Rock.

So Yang Qing attached great importance to those who attacked the top of the mountain, and he also had a lot of hatred.

It was you who made my subordinates suffer heavy casualties, and made me the general of the defeated army. If I don't defeat you, this battle will be a shame for my life!

Yang Yuan didn't arrange too much, the strength of the guards had far surpassed that of the defenders in Little Rock.

He just arranged for an army to guard the side of the mountain. He wanted to eat all the people who came out of Little Rock. This army was just to break the way.

When Yang Qing came to the foot of Xiaoshi Mountain again, what he saw was the guards in uniform.

They didn't hide anything, and waited openly for the arrival of reinforcements from Little Rock.

Seeing that the guards had set out their chariots and horses waiting for them at the foot of the mountain,

Yang Qing and another general knew that the top of the mountain must have been lost.

"Hey! We will go all out in this battle!"

Yang Qing clenched his fists, "I was the one who lost last night, let them see how good I am today!"

One-third of the 6,000 troops were commanded by him, and more than 700 of them had experienced the battle last night.

Yesterday's defeat made their morale very low, but after Yang Qing's encouragement, they regained their fighting spirit.

who are they?

They are the elite of Shun Country!

They lost in the battle last night for some inexplicable reasons, but if they lose, they lose. Today they want to wash away their shame with victory!

"Come on!"

After the two sides approached to a suitable distance, Yang Qingbu took the lead in launching the attack.

Led by yesterday's defeated soldiers, the Little Rock army rushed towards the guards like a pack of wolves.

The archers in the rear also shot the arrows in their hands at the guards.

It's just that the archers in Little Rock City are mostly used to defend the city, and the number of archers leaving the city is not many, only more than 500 people.

In contrast, the number of archers of the Divine Guard is larger and their archery skills are better.

Archers can play a very important role in defending the city, as well as in attacking the city.

In particular, the range of imperial archers is generally farther than that of ordinary archers, which can bring a lot of pressure to those defending the city walls even when they are attacking the city.

If it is an advanced heavy archer or sharpshooter, the range and power will be even more terrifying.

The difference between a heavy archer and a sharpshooter is that one of the two pays more attention to power, while the latter pays more attention to accuracy and speed of fire.

Currently, among the thousand archers under Yang Yuan's command, only the 300 archers who followed at the beginning have successfully advanced, and the remaining 700 were all summoned by him to capture Little Rock City.

Although they are only initial archers, they are no weaker than the archers in Little Rock.

The two sides shot at each other, and immediately produced different results. The armor of the guards was better than that of Little Rock, and the arrows of the archers of Little Rock rarely completely pierced their armor.

After the armor is broken, it will not cause too deep injuries.

On the other hand, when the arrows of the archers of the Divine Guard shot at the soldiers in Little Rock, almost every arrow could knock down one person.

Yang Qing noticed this difference very keenly, because all the soldiers who fell were his subordinates.

The nightmare from last night seemed to reappear in front of him.

His own soldiers fell in front of him one by one, and he could only bring his guards to resist desperately, delaying the speed at which his soldiers were killed.

That's right, he didn't even have the ability to stop this kind of killing, and he could only delay it if he tried his best.

Fifteen guards lost their lives protecting him last night, otherwise how would he have the opportunity to continue to command on the battlefield today?

Although every qualified general has to be cold-blooded in the face of casualties, but when his bodyguard for many years died in front of him, how could Yang Qing's heart not fluctuate!

Today, watching the same scene happen again, Yang Qing suddenly felt a kind of fear that shouldn't have arisen.

No!

Absolutely can't happen again!

"Let our archers fully suppress each other, they are slaughtering our soldiers!"

Yang Qing's roar sounded from behind the phalanx.

Another Little Rock general not far away also saw this situation, but he had no good way to change the situation.

Let the archers press up and shoot at the enemy's archers?

Do not make jokes!

The enemy's archers are not only superior in number, but also have better range and power than their archers. How to fight?

The only solution is to rush to close combat.

"Rush forward! Melee with the enemy, don't be afraid, rush forward!"

Obviously, this new general has not seen the strength of other arms of the Divine Guard, otherwise he will definitely regret giving this order.
