The cold and cruel reality made everyone anxious. Soon, more people held shields to cover the archers and pushed forward. This was a desperate effort.

Cheng Chumo was not stupid. He changed his tactics decisively and shouted: "Stop shooting, hold your shield, and retreat!"

Backing up is also a training subject. Everyone doesn't master it well enough, but retreating slowly is not a big problem. They all took out the shields on their backs to block the front, and slowly retreated. The arrows fired by the enemy were blown by the strong wind, and their power was greatly reduced.

He said that only about half of the shot reached everyone. It was light and was blocked by the shield, and fell down one after another without any pressure.

Step back ten feet, return to the original position, and the team stops.

At this distance, even if the enemy shoots arrows from the outside of the tribe, they cannot reach it unless they continue to move forward, but there is thick snow blocking the front, making it impossible to rush forward. Qin Huaidao saw that the enemy did not rush forward like last time, so he gathered on the outside and used shields.

For the wall, the archers hide behind it.

It was impossible to shoot at this distance, but Cheng Chumo did not dare to let the team advance and sent them to the door. In anger, he yelled: "Use rockets, throw them!"

"Pengpeng——"

The bow strings exploded, and the rockets soared into the sky. They were blown by the strong wind and floated farther. Then they fell down and hit the enemy's shield. They bounced and rolled into the gaps in the shield. They landed on the people under the shield. The fire was so intense that people were shocked.

Instinctively, fear and panic arose, and many people were so frightened that they dropped their shields and ran away.

Suddenly, the enemy's shield array was in chaos.

Another burst of rockets fell, and the chaos intensified.

Cheng Chumo looked at this scene coldly, unmoved, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at Qin Huaidao's position. Such an opponent was simply too terrifying, and there was nothing he could do. Fortunately, he was a brother, not an enemy.

In the distance, on the hillside.

Qin Huaidao didn't know Cheng Chumo's thoughts and calmly observed the battle situation. When he saw that the enemy could not break out of the tribe, everything was as he expected. He felt reassured and a relaxed smile appeared on his lips.

The overall situation is decided!

"General, the snow is too deep and the enemy cannot rush out. General, this sled is a sacred object. I have never heard of it since ancient times. With this object, I will no longer be afraid of the enemies from the north." Li Derjian said sincerely,

The last trace of dissatisfaction in my heart disappeared, and I was convinced by what the old man at home once said.

Even Fang Yiai, who has a bold personality, sighed with emotion: "If the imperial court had had this thing long ago, the north would have been pacified long ago. But it's okay, this great power has fallen on us. I'm so happy, general. I don't think the enemy can do it anymore.

Is it our turn to attack?"

"Don't worry, the enemy has 50,000 people, and we only have 5,000. We can't be reckless. We don't have enough time. If we rush down now, we are looking for death. We will slowly wear them out." Qin Huaidao was in a good mood and explained.

"Indeed, these bastards are eager for us to rush down and fight." Li Yixie agreed.

After observing for a moment, Qin Huaidao saw that most of the yurt was on fire. His heart moved and he shouted: "Fang Xiaowei."

"General, let us attack. General, please rest assured and keep it safe." Fang Yiai said excitedly.

"Quickly send the order, the troops will retreat one mile, stop attacking, and prepare for defense." Qin Huaidao shouted.

"Ah——" Fang Yiai was a little disappointed when she heard that she was not allowed to do it.

"Ah, what, go quickly." Qin Huaidao shouted.

Fang Yiai did not dare to neglect and quickly arranged for someone to deliver the order.

Li Derjian couldn't help but ask: "General, what does this mean?"

Qin Huaidao glanced at the other party, thought of Li Jing's affection, and explained: "Retreating for a mile without moving can put pressure on the enemy. The enemy dare not enter the yurt to rest or put out fires. We must remain on alert to prevent our army from suddenly killing.

Go up there and waste your energy and energy."

"But this can't win the battle." Li Derjian said.

"That's not the point." Qin Huaidao reminded him. Seeing that Li Derjian didn't understand very well, he patiently explained: "When the yurt burns, the temperature of the entire tribe increases greatly. The enemy troops don't feel cold outside. When the yurt is burned out, the temperature drops sharply.

, when it gets cold, the enemy will feel more unbearable than before, but without a yurt to shelter from the wind, the body heat will be lost quickly, and they will be frozen, numb, and unable to fight anymore."

"ah--"

After a few words, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

This calculation is no longer a simple calculation of people's hearts, it even calculates the temperature, which is incredible.

Li Derjian thought for a long time and said sincerely: "General, generals from all over the world dare not say they are proficient in the art of war, but they consider themselves familiar with it, but none of them mentioned temperature. Dejian admires the general's talent very much, but this method is too much."

It is important and exquisite. Can it be written into military information and reported to the imperial court?"

Reporting it to the public means that everyone in the world knows that the art of war has always been a treasure, and no one wants to show it to others.

Qin Huaidao said nonchalantly: "It's up to you!"

Li Derjian thought for a while and then secretly gave up the idea. Such an important strategy must not be revealed to others easily. He would wait until he returned home to ask the old man at home for instructions.

As he spoke, the three attacking armies slowly retreated.

Everyone saw that the enemy was not pursuing him and did not dare to disperse. They continued to be on guard. Everything was as expected by Qin Huaidao. They became more and more admired and full of confidence and expectation for the next battle.

After waiting for a while, An Guo Gongzhi lost his mind and the three brothers of the Cheng family hurried over. Across the distance, An Guo Gong excitedly shouted: "General, it's great, it's so great. Everything was as expected. I have been fighting all my life and never thought of it."

The battle can still be fought like this, but why are we asked to retreat again? Is there another big move?"

Li Derjian smiled and said: "Hahaha, the old general really got it right."

"Is there really a big move? That's great, tell us quickly." Zhi lost his thoughts and asked excitedly.

Li Derjian looked at Qin Huaidao and saw Qin Huaidao nodding, so he repeated his analysis just now.

Zhi Shi Si Li, who was still a little dissatisfied with missing the opportunity, was stunned. He even calculated the temperature. Is this still a human being? He had never heard of this style of play and couldn't believe it. He asked, "General, can this really be done?"

"We'll find out later. The soldiers were tired from drawing their bows just now. It's time to take a rest. Anyway, the enemy doesn't dare to chase them out. There's still about an hour before dark, but the yurt will be burned out in less than half an hour. Let's go back.

Each unit will wait until the general raises the flag, then it will be time to attack." Qin Huaidao explained.

"Hahaha, this battle was so enjoyable!" Zhi Shan Si Li agreed after hearing that it made sense.

Qin Huaidao looked ahead and said: "Once you launch an attack, rush down first and test it at a stone's throw. If you find that the enemy cannot draw the bow and cannot charge forward, it means that the body is frozen and unable to fight anymore, but there is still a part of the yurt that is not

Burn it, there should still be enemies hidden inside, don't advance blindly, advance slowly, as before, if you find that you can't do anything, keep a distance, and kill the enemy alive. Anyone who dares to rush forward will die in vain and will be dealt with according to the military law."

"Obey the order!" The three brothers of the Cheng family were convinced of Qin Huaidao, so naturally they would not mess around.

Anguo Gongzhi lost his mind and wished to conserve his strength and fight slowly, let alone advance rashly.

"Go back and take command!" Qin Huaidao sent everyone back, his sharp eyes falling on the tribe in front again.

In the tribe below.

The enemy was still on alert, being watched by thousands of people, and they were only a few hundred meters away. They could rush down and fight at any time, so they didn't dare not be on guard.

The general of Goguryeo felt cold in his heart when he saw this scene. He couldn't understand why his opponent was not affected by the cold weather and why he was able to walk on the snow. His eyes fell on the burning yurt, and a sense of powerlessness came to his heart.

A group of generals came to the big tent.

Everyone sat down around the bonfire. The general looked around with cold eyes. When he saw everyone was dejected, he felt a little in his heart and said quickly: "Everyone, our army has 50,000 people, and the opponent only has a few thousand people. As long as we confront them, in the end

The victory must belong to our army."

"General, my opponent has a Liannu. He is definitely not a Khitan, but probably a Tang army." One person reminded him.

"What's wrong with the Tang army? The brave Goguryeo soldiers are not afraid of any enemy. They are also human beings and can be cold. Now it is a confrontation. We only need to guard the periphery of the tribe and see who survives to the end. Although the burning of the yurt will be detrimental to our army in the future, but for now

But it can keep us warm. On the other hand, the enemy has his back to the wind, no shelter, and is colder than us. What are we afraid of? If we survive, we will win." The general said quickly, without morale, this battle would be even more difficult.

I have to say that the general is very experienced and knowledgeable. If he had been replaced by other troops, such a confrontation would have been defeated. Unfortunately, he met Qin Huaidao. They were all wearing thick coats with armor inside. There were winter coats inside the armor, and there were also winter coats inside.

We have silk warm clothes, thick wool socks under our feet, and thick sheepskin gloves, so it's not cold at all.

Everyone doesn’t know. After listening to the analysis, everyone waited for a moment.

A general hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but remind him: "If it is really the Tang army, how did they get here? It is impossible to march in such thick snow. Even if they can march, it will take about two days to get here. How did they get here?"

It took two days to arrive?"

"Yeah, how did they survive?" someone echoed.

After a few words, everyone's faces changed again.

No one who can climb up to the position of general is a fool. If he can survive two days to get here, he can survive two more days. What can you do to confront the other party? There is no yurt to shelter from the wind and cold. The soldiers of Goguryeo cannot survive in the cold.

It can last for two days in the wind, no - not even half an hour!

The general also thought of this and his face became even uglier.

There was a deathly silence in the big tent, and everyone was worried.

A depressing atmosphere spread.

One person couldn't stand this kind of oppression and couldn't help but said: "General, fight them."

Someone immediately objected: "It's easier said than done. The crossbows are as sharp and dense as rain. Once we retreat while fighting, we will only be beaten. What are we going to do?"

"Then rush out, you can't wait to die." The other party yelled unwillingly.

"The snow is deep and it is difficult for a war horse to move. Even if we walk, how far can we go? And how long can we last?"

After a few words, the whole place changed color.

I can't fight again and again, and I can't run but I can't run away. The problem is that confrontation doesn't work either. How can we fight this battle?

Everyone looked at the general with panic in their eyes.

The generals were also two in size, and suddenly they regretted coming to Khitan. After all, there was a heavy snowstorm. Before, there was only one foot of snow, and the horses could barely walk. Now there are three or four feet of snow.
