Chapter 131 Heavy Casualties

The barbarians retreated.

For the Black Tiger Army, it was a temporary opportunity to breathe.

To this.

Chu Ding had expected it.

The barbarians invaded Dahuang Mansion not just for the small city of Jincheng, but to capture a wider area.

Millions of barbarians.

Although there seemed to be a large number, in fact, it was not impossible for Da Qin to resist.

If tens of thousands of barbarians were lost in front of a Jincheng, it would obviously not be in the interests of the barbarians.

so.

A short break is necessary.

The real decisive battle will begin when the barbarians finish their rest and launch another round of offensive.

"All the wounded should retreat and be bandaged. In addition, the Huotou Army should be notified to cook, so that everyone's physical strength can be replenished in time. At the same time, people who have finished their rest should be arranged to guard the city wall to prevent barbarian sneak attacks.

Also, clean up the battlefield. "

Chu Ding calmly gave the order.

Suddenly.

All the Black Tiger troops began to clear the corpses on the city wall.

If it is the corpse of a compatriot, it is carried aside and placed. If it is the corpse of the enemy, it is thrown directly onto the city wall.

Within a quarter of an hour, all the corpses piled up on the city wall had been cleared.

But there was no way to remove the traces of condensed blood.

Mottled blood.

There is a strong smell of blood permeating from it.

Immediately afterwards.

It’s the changing of the guard at the city wall.

Jincheng, in the Black Tiger Army camp.

Chu Ding was shirtless and allowed others to help him bandage and treat his wounds. The blood-stained armor was casually thrown aside by him.

underneath him.

Sitting there is the person who now has the right to speak in Jincheng.

Nie Xu, the county magistrate.

Tianchawei is in charge of Zhongchi.

And several captains of the Black Tiger Army.

Originally, there were about ten thousand captains among the twelve thousand Black Tiger Army. Unfortunately, in the previous battle, a few died at the hands of the barbarians, and less than half remained.

Although warriors in the Tongmai realm are powerful.

But in the rebel army, they are just stronger than ordinary people.

Killed in action.

Nothing could be more ordinary.

The atmosphere in the camp is now very solemn.

"What are the casualties of our troops?"

Chu Ding looked at the captains and asked calmly.

The words fell.

The scene was a bit quiet again.

After a long time, Wen Ce handed over his hand and replied.

"General, our army has a total of 2,125 killed and 3,732 injured!"

call!

When Wen Ce finished speaking, someone let out a long sigh.

Out of the 12,000 Black Tiger Army, only over 6,000 people are left intact.

That is to say.

The battle at night directly defeated the Black Tiger Army.

Chu Ding's face seemed to be gloomy, but it soon returned to normal.

"Are there any statistics on the gains?"

"There is no way to make statistics for the time being, but looking at the situation on the battlefield, the casualties of the barbarians are at least one to two times that of ours."

Wen Ce shook his head.

Now that the war is not over, it is simply impossible to compile statistics in this regard.

Based on his experience, he could basically tell how much damage the barbarians had suffered.

"In other words, the 120,000 barbarians, not counting the injured, suffered losses of about half at most, while our army lost almost 30%. This battle is indeed difficult enough."

Chu Ding sighed.

30% to 50%, the gap is not as big as usual.

And when the gap between the numbers of the two sides becomes larger, the casualty ratio will be even greater.

Nie Xu looked heavy: "It's only half a day, but Jincheng's losses are so great. Not to mention fighting for two days, I'm afraid we may not be able to withstand the next barbarian attack."

"It's normal not to be able to resist."

Compared to Nie Xu's heaviness, Zhong Chi was much calmer.

The current situation has long been expected by him.

Tianchawei mainly collects intelligence, and Zhongchi is also very clear about the strength assessment of the two armies.

Jincheng.

It is absolutely impossible to resist the barbarian army.

That's why he proposed to evacuate the people first to avoid causing too many casualties when Jincheng was breached in the future.

"The only question now is how long Jincheng can hold out and whether General Chu has thought of a way out!"

In Zhongchi's opinion.

Although the Black Tiger Army is defending Jincheng, it may not fight to the last soldier.

How exactly.

It depends on how Chu Ding decides.

As a member of the Tiancha Guard, it was the utmost benevolence for him to stay and help in the battle, but when the city was really about to be defeated, he might not necessarily stay and live and die with Jincheng.

Fight when it's time to fight.

Go when it's time to go.

It's just that it's not the last moment for Jincheng yet, and Zhongchi won't really leave now.

Hear the words.

Chu Ding's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "In half a day, the retreating people have not gone very far. If Jincheng is defeated and the barbarian army catches up, they will definitely be dead.

If the barbarians take a rest now, we will probably have an hour or two of peace.

All that's left is to fight fiercely and buy some time for Dahuang Mansion and the retreating people. "

"There are many corpses outside the city, and the wall of Jincheng is not high. If too many people die in the battle, it is easy for the barbarians to pile up the corpses and climb directly onto the city wall. What should we do?"

A captain asked in a deep voice.

Wait for him to finish.

Chu Ding spoke.

"Don't forget, our main purpose is to delay time, not to defend a city wall. If the barbarian offensive is really irresistible, then let them in. With our familiarity with Jincheng, we can also follow They circle around.”

Let the barbarians enter the city!

Hearing this, everyone looked startled.

The next moment.

Someone reacted.

"Yes, the terrain in Jincheng is complicated. If the barbarians are really allowed to come in, it will be difficult for the barbarian cavalry to play their role. Then we can delay it for a while with the help of our familiarity with the terrain."

Nie Xu nodded in agreement.

He had never thought of letting the barbarians enter the city.

It wasn't until Chu Ding spoke that he finally reacted.

indeed.

If the city wall really cannot be defended, then there is no need to waste time defending it. It would be a good idea to let the barbarians enter the city.

"Of course, if you can stop the barbarians from outside Jincheng, then stop them outside. When nothing can be done, let them in. If you do this, even if Jincheng is not turned into ruins afterwards, it will still be seriously damaged."

"Whether Jincheng is damaged or not is a trivial matter."

Nie Xu shook his head.

When they were talking and discussing countermeasures.

The barbarian army has now set up camp around Jincheng and is setting fire to cook.

The main account of the Chinese Army.

boom! !

There was a loud noise, and a silver cup was smashed to the ground. Melba's face looked extremely angry.

"waste!"

"It's all rubbish!"

"The army of 120,000 was actually stopped by the army of 12,000 black tigers. Our barbarians have always been brave, but how could we ever become like this!"

Melba roared angrily.

The barbarian generals below all bowed their heads and dared not reply.

On his left hand, the barbarian priest sat cross-legged, with the bone scepter placed across his legs, eyes closed, indifferent to Melba's roar.

See here.

There was a displeased look in Melba's eyes, but he did not set fire to the other party, but directed his anger at the barbarian general below.

"Tell me, how long will it take for you to conquer Jincheng?"

After he was done venting, Melba's tone became much calmer.

Hear the words.

A barbarian general swallowed, reluctantly raised his head to look at the other party, and replied with clasped fists.

"Lord Qi, the Black Tiger Army has suffered heavy losses in the previous siege. After our army's rest and recuperation is over, we will definitely be able to capture Jincheng in the next siege!"

"Yes, although the Black Tiger Army is brave and not afraid of death, their numbers are not large after all. Now they are even more depleted. If we recover our strength, they will have no chance of resisting."

The other barbarian generals also nodded in agreement.

"good!"

Melba nodded and looked at everyone with indifferent eyes.

"Then I will give you another chance. Our army will rest for an hour and a half. After eating and drinking enough, we will start a new round of attack. If you still fail to break through Jincheng, then come to see us with your heads!" "

"yes!"

Everyone's heart trembled, and they nodded hurriedly.

"Get down!"

With a wave of his hand, Melba made the other barbarian generals leave the camp as if they had been granted amnesty.

Subsequently.

He looked at the barbarian priest who closed his eyes and said nothing.

"How long does the priest think it will take for our army to conquer Jincheng?"

"Jincheng is now at the end of its strength, and the city will only be destroyed in a matter of days."

The barbarian priest smiled slightly and gave an answer that was not an answer.

Hear the words.

Melba didn't ask any more questions.

Set up camp.

Live and cook.

The scene has temporarily calmed down.

"Elder Fang, if one night passes, will you be able to prepare a suitable poison to deal with the barbarians?"

Chu Ding summoned Fang Xue again.

Nowadays, barbarians make fires to cook, and if they want to poison, this is obviously the best time.

Fang Xue looked stiff, lowered his head and clasped his fists: "Because of the great trust of the general, Fang has not been able to prepare a suitable poison so far!"

"Is there nothing you can do?"

"The materials currently available in Jincheng are incomplete. Even if Fang is a prodigy in poison skills, there is no way he can prepare the poison he wants under such circumstances. I have failed the general's trust, so I hope you will forgive me!"

Fang Xue replied in a deep voice.

He was also worried that if he failed to complete the task, he would be beheaded by Chu Ding in a rage.

Now that the two armies are going to war, if they say they want to kill someone, then they just kill them. There will be no big impact at all.

Even if it is any other time.

The Black Tiger Army killed him, and the Golden Toad Sect did not dare to say anything.

but.

The anger Fang Xue expected did not come, and Chu Ding waved his hand.

"Since Elder Fang failed to prepare the poison, let's forget it. We have worked hard before, so we can go down and take a rest."

"Fang takes his leave!"

Fang Xue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed and retreated.

In the tent.

Chu Ding looked a little regretful.

Although he didn't place much hope on Fang Xue, it was a pity that he had reached this stage.

Without a suitable poison, there would be no way to weaken the strength of the barbarians.

Thus.

It can only be done hard.
