Chapter 200 Darkness Chencang

"What exactly do this group of Song soldiers want to do?"

Looking at the tragic tragedy on the battlefield, as well as the blood-stained pier and sea water, Zheng Zhichang said angrily!

After five days and five nights of fighting, they saw the Divine Arm Crossbow and the Bed Crossbow. If they could not guess that the enemy was not the Japanese army but the Song army, then their IQ would be really worrying!

While watching the battle on the battlefield, Wu Yanchong seemed to be making some decisions.

Seeing that no one answered him, Zheng Zhichang knew that these Qiu Bas were just fighting regardless of why they fought. Therefore, telling them these things was simply playing the piano for a cow.

Zheng Zhichang came to Wu Yanchong and said, "Elder General, this battle cannot be fought like this anymore. It has been five days and five nights. Nearly ten consular protections won the battle. They are still the main army, but they have never been able to land. If this continues, we will definitely return in vain..."

Wu Yanchong pointed at Liang Shanjun opposite and asked Zheng Zhichang: "Did the marshal see it?"

Zheng Zhichang was stunned, and then looked in the direction of Wu Yanpeng's finger.

After watching for a while, Zheng Zhichang was not very sure, "Are they... they are not as capable as they were the two days ago?"

Wu Yanchong asked back without answering, "Do you know why?"

Zheng Zhichang thought for a while and said, "Their veterans were too many casualties and were replenishing new recruits, so their strength decreased?"

Wu Yanchong said: "Not only did they add new recruits, they also added many farmers who had not been trained at all."

Zheng Zhichang thought of a possibility and said, "Are they no longer soldiers?"

Wu Yanchong nodded and said, "It's possible."

Zheng Zhichangxi said: "Does that mean that we will be able to open up here soon, then go to the island, and then wipe out this group of Song troops?"

Wu Yanchong was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what happened to this group of Song troops. The fighting will is extremely tenacious, and even the replenishing civilians are like this. In this case, it is possible for the other party to stay for a long time. Don't forget that there are more than 100,000 people on this island, which means they can get a steady stream of supplements."

Even the veterans of Bai Zhan said this. Zheng Zhichang couldn't help but panic and said, "Then...what should I do? Keep mincing meat with them in this flesh-and-blood mill?"

Wu Yanchong said: "Marson, remember I told you that there are three places to land on this island?"

Zheng Zhichang reacted for a moment and then said, "Can the old general want to hit the luck of a lifetime?"

Wu Yanchong looked at the fierce soldiers in Liangshan who were fighting back against the rain of Gaoli arrows on the opposite side and said, "I'm afraid it won't work if I don't hit you. Although the military qualities of this group of Song soldiers are not as good as those of the Jurchen elite, their fighting will is the only one I have seen in my life."

Zheng Zhichang agreed: "This group of Song troops is indeed brave and is not afraid of life and death. I really don't know how their commander trained them." After a pause, Zheng Zhichang was proud and said: "But my left and right guards of the Goryeo and Xingwei Guards are not bad either. With such a large casualty, he can still fight. He is truly worthy of being the army that Taizu started with."

Wu Yanchong did not answer Zheng Zhichang's words, and Wu Yanchong, who knew the army better, had already seen that the infantry of the left and right guards and Xingwei Guards were almost at their limit. There was no need to do much. If there was no hope of breakthrough, these two elite troops would collapse. This is also one of the reasons why Wu Yanchong was preparing to take the risk of secretly traveling to Chen Cang from Lishui and Mopu.

Wu Yanchong said: "Marson, secretly traveling to Chen Cang from Lishui and Mopo tonight is the key to this victory and defeat. I want to go to command it myself."

Zheng Zhichang asked carefully: "Then is the battle here suspended?"

Wu Yanchong shook his head and said, "Not only can we stop, but the intensity must also be increased." After a pause, Wu Yanchong explained to Zheng Zhichang: "The more fierce the attack here, the greater the possibility that we will succeed in secretly traveling to Chen Cang."

Zheng Zhichang asked nervously: "Then...who will command the battle here?"

Wu Yanchong said: "Of course, you are commanded by Marshal."

When Zheng Zhichang heard Wu Yanchong say this, he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I can't do it! I can't do it! Let General Jin or General Han command it!"

Wu Yanchong actually didn't want to hand over the command power to Zheng Zhichang, but Zheng Zhichang was the marshal after all. In addition, the generals of the left and right guards and Xingwei Guards, namely the General of Jin and General Han, were completely at the same level, and the two of them had some personal grudges. It was appropriate to hand over the command power to any of them. In addition, it was also the most important thing. Through the past few days of getting along, Wu Yanchong saw that although Zheng Zhichang did not know the military, he was still quite sensible, so Wu Yanchong handed over the command power to Zheng Zhichang. No, it should be said that he would return it to Zheng Zhichang.

Wu Yanchong said: "Marcel must not worry. If there is no major event, the Marshal can be the same as before. General Jin and General Han will arrange for the specific battle."

After hearing what Wu Yanchong said, Zheng Zhichang felt a little relieved.

However, Zheng Zhichang still advised: "That... the old general, otherwise... let's not go to Chen Cang secretly. The chance is too slim. If you make a mistake, we will lose more than you. Otherwise, we will attack like this for two more days, and maybe they will not be able to hold on in two days. At that time, we can drive straight in and then break through the city on the island in one fell swoop."

Wu Yan's favorite can't afford to lose, or even delay.

Wu Yanchong knew very well about the officials in the court who only knew the party struggles. If he could not show a decent record, those officials would definitely dismiss him based on the current situation and replace him with someone else to be the deputy marshal.

He is almost sixty and cannot wait for the next chance. Once he loses this chance, he will never want to lead troops again in his life, let alone return to the Northwest Army to seek revenge on the Jurchens.

Therefore, Wu Yanchong said, "I'm afraid that we can't hold on for now. Although we still have nearly 20,000 to protect the victory, the only one of the main army is less than 8,000, and the rest are all the Wangjun. More than half of the casualties of the Zhengjun's protect the victory have exceeded the critical line of defeat. They can still fight again because they are the most elite army in Goryeo, but they have also reached the brink of collapse. If they fight for another day or two, they will be defeated. When the main army protect the victory, they cannot fight again. We have to let the Wangjun protect the victory. Can they fight this ground meat battle?"

"this……"

Zheng Zhichang just didn't care about military affairs anymore, and he knew that the treatment of the Wang Army was not a little worse than that of the Zheng Army, so naturally he could not have such a strong fighting will as strong as the Zheng Army.

Wu Yanchong said again: "Besides, it is currently the high tide stage, and the possibility of successfully traveling from Lishui and Mokpo to Chencang has increased a lot. In addition, the defenders have insufficient troops, so they should not invest too much defensive forces in Lishui and Mokpo, and there are even no defenders at all. I think we should take a try, Marshal, see?"

After hearing what Wu Yanchong said, Zheng Zhichang, who had no confidence but had no opinion, could only say: "Then... use the secret strategy of Chen Cang according to the words of the old general."
