Chapter 1503： You are stupid if you have no top military commander!

"This……"

The lieutenant looked at Huo Qubing and said, "General, do we really want to choose to attack? The enemy army on the opposite side is the Ice and Snow Dynasty!"

Huo Qubing nodded and said in a deep voice: "The cold environment of the Dongbo Mountains has a great impact on the soldiers of the Ice and Snow Dynasty. Their combat effectiveness is now reduced a lot. They are not our opponents at all."

"In addition, we have previously attacked the enemy army, causing huge losses to the enemy army, causing the enemy's military spirit to fluctuate."

"In this case, we have a great chance of attacking."

"We have no reason to miss such a good opportunity!"

Huo Qubing's words were very positive.

As a leading general, he knows very well that opportunities on the battlefield are fleeting.

If he missed the opportunity to hit Zuzhi's army this time, there may be no chance again.

Moreover, once the enemy is given a chance to recover, relying on the strength of the Ice and Snow Dynasty army, it can still pose a threat to the own army.

Therefore, this is an excellent opportunity, and one that must not be missed!

Of course, Huo Qubing is not a crazy gambler, he has a back hand, guarding against possible unexpected situations.

Manjiao City retains 300,000 troops, and with enough defense equipment, it can hold on for more than a month.

This is his back hand, guaranteeing that even if there is an accident in this attack, Barbarian Jiaocheng will not directly fall into the hands of the Ice and Snow Dynasty.

Although Huo Qubing doesn't think there will be any accidents in this situation, the preparations should still be kept.

As for the offensive army, as long as there are no unexpected people, an army of 700,000 is completely sufficient.

Early the next morning, Huo Qubing led troops from Manjiao City to the garrison of the Ice and Snow Dynasty outside the Dongbo Mountains.

At noon, the trail of Huo Qubing's army was discovered by a scout arranged by Zu Zhi.

The scout reported the intelligence to Zu Zhi immediately.

"Sure enough, it's here!"

Zu Zhi sighed when he learned of the situation.

He knew that Huo Qubing would definitely have a follow-up attack, but he didn't expect to come so quickly.

From yesterday’s offensive to today, only one day has passed.

He thought that for Huo Qubing's second wave of offensive, the army would have to prepare for at least two or three days, or even three or five days.

After all, the expedition of hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops is not a simple matter.

But I didn't expect that in just one day, Huo Qubing's second wave of offense would be coming.

"General, what shall we do?" The lieutenant looked a little flustered.

Although Zu Zhi had already said before, Huo Qubing would definitely have a second wave of offense, but no one expected it to come so quickly.

Although Zu Zhi had arranged for the army to build bows and crossbows to defend against cavalry attacks, in just one day, the exhausted army did not build much.

Wanting to block the attack of large-scale cavalry is tantamount to idiotic dreams.

Coupled with the low morale of the soldiers and the drastic decline in combat effectiveness, Zu Zhi's sacred banner has been used previously.

Adding all these circumstances together, the lieutenant could not feel anything except despair.

"What is it?"

Zu Zhi coldly snorted: "Even if our fortifications have not been fully constructed, we are still tough soldiers of the Ice and Snow Dynasty. How can the soldiers of the Nanyan Kingdom be comparable?"

"The order goes on, the whole army is ready to fight!"

"Yes!"

The lieutenant dared not say much, and went down to pass the order.

After all, the soldiers of the Ice and Snow Dynasty were elites. Despite the low morale, they still condensed the army under the order of Zu Zhi, waiting for the arrival of Huo Qubing's army.

Huo Qubing arrived at the combat position in the afternoon that day.

He saw the condensed formation of Zuzhi's army at first sight, and sighed: "Zu Zhi deserves to be the general of the Ice and Snow Dynasty. In this case, the soldiers with low morale can be condensed into a complete formation. not simple."

"His military ability is very strong. Although he is not ranked in the top five on the Yuzhou generals list, he is not a general one. But..."

Looking at Zu Zhi's army, Huo Qubing said: "The army in front of you looks strong, but in fact it is vulnerable!"

"General, what do you mean by this?" The lieutenant looked at Huo Qubing in confusion.

Huo Qubing explained: "The morale of the enemy army is already low. Zu Zhi knew our tracks in advance and forcibly formed the army formation, which seemed very powerful, but in fact, the army formation without the morale of the army is just a paper tiger!"

"Huo Qubing of Nanyan, dare to come out and talk to Lao Tzu!"

As soon as Huo Qubing's voice fell, Zu Zhi's voice came out.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Huo Qubing was a little surprised. Seeing Zu Zhi walking out of the army formation, he didn't expect him to shout before the formation.

Driving out, Huo Qubing looked at Zu Zhi from a distance and said loudly: "Zu Zhi, I respect you as the general of the Ice and Snow Dynasty. Today, I will give you a chance. Now I will immediately lead the troops to surrender to me. I can guarantee your lives. !"

"Hahahaha!"

Zu Zhi heard a laugh, and said: "Huo Qubing, Huo Qubing, you are really funny!"

"Do you think that you, a small general of the Nanyan Kingdom, are qualified to say this to my dignified general?"

"Today, it is this general who should give the opportunity to me!"

Staring at Huo Qubing, Zu Zhi said loudly: "If you lead your troops back at this time and give up Barbarian Jiaocheng, I can make my army show mercy to your Nanyan soldiers."

"You are quite confident." Huo Qubing shook his head as he listened, and said: "If this is the case, let me see on the battlefield, where does your confidence come from."

"The whole army listens to orders."

"charge!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

Huo Qubing gave an order, and the army immediately launched a charge, rushing towards the enemy army to rebuke the army.

When Zu Zhi saw it, his expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that Huo Qubing would directly order a charge when he didn't agree.

However, he was relieved in his heart and sneered: "Sure enough, Huo Qubing has no infantry under his command!"

The lieutenant looked lighter when he heard it, and said, "Without infantry, we can't hold our shield against the rain of arrows."

"Although we don't have many crossbow formations now, with the powerful crossbows, it is enough to cause a devastating blow to Huo Qubing's cavalry!"

"Yes!"

Zu Zhi sneered: "The cavalry does not have a shield to withstand the arrow rain attack, then there is only a dead end! Unless the leader of the army is a super general, can consolidate the army and resist the arrow rain!"

"Unfortunately, there is only one outstanding general in Nanyan Kingdom, and that is Yue Fei!"

"If Yue Fei was here today, I would have to retreat, but Huo Qubing, a small one, only knew that he ordered the cavalry to charge, but didn't know how to guard against arrow rain.

"If the order is passed on, all the bowmen and crossbowmen will immediately release their arrows, and shoot out the arrow feathers at the fastest speed, causing the greatest damage to the enemy!"

"Yes!"

Soon, there was a sound of breaking through the air from the Zu Zhijun formation, and dense feathers of arrows lifted into the air.

The sky-like rain of arrows made the sky and the earth dark, pouring down against Huo Qubing's iron cavalry!
