Chapter 95: Spring Showdown [two in one](2/2)

Hitting the city wall with his scalp.

"These new recruits actually have such resilience?"

Zhai Huang looked surprised and said unexpectedly.

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun was also a little puzzled. After all, for a new army that has just been established, under normal circumstances, the morale will be affected if the casualties exceed 10%, and if the casualties exceed 30%, the morale will be seriously affected. Once the casualties exceed 50%, the morale will be seriously affected.

If it succeeds, collapse and escape will occur to a large extent.

But so far, the casualties of this Korean army recruit have reached almost 70%. Under this situation, these recruits are still attacking the Julu City Wall without hesitation, trying to attack the city wall. It has to be said that in terms of fighting spirit alone,

This new recruit will definitely surpass most armies in the world.

The question is, how can a newly established South Korean army achieve this level?

In other words, what is it that gives these Korean recruits such firm belief?

"..."

After frowning and thinking carefully for a moment, Zhao Hongrun's frowning eyebrows gradually relaxed.

"I see...Have our army in Wei Dynasty become villains?"

In his opinion, the reason why this new South Korean army has such firm beliefs is probably because South Korea used some lofty concept similar to "driving out the Wei people and protecting the country" when forming this new army.

It bewitched the young people in the country and took advantage of their arrogance, blindness and sense of honor to make them willing to sacrifice their lives for the country.

It has to be said that this is a consistent method when recruiting soldiers. Even when the Wei State recruits soldiers, it will also state the purpose of joining the army. In short, it is to always be on the side of justice.

But then again, how can there be any absolute justice in war?

Just like this war between Wei and Han, in the eyes of the people of Wei, this war of Wei State is just, even if the real purpose of their Wei State Crown Prince is to step on the corpse of South Korea and ascend to the throne of the Central Plains Overlord

; As for South Korea, it is obvious that Wei Jun is heinous.

Perhaps it is the difference in stance and concept that makes these Korean army recruits show their bravery and fearlessness of death.

"Go! Go! Go!"

At the foot of the city, a Korean general held a long ladder with both hands and shouted at the top of his lungs to urge his soldiers.

Next to it, from time to time, a famous Korean soldier would fall down from the city wall about three or four feet high with panicked shouts. He fell into the snow with a thud and could not get up for a long time.

But even so, there are still many Korean recruits who seem to be setting foot on the battlefield for the first time, and they muster the courage to climb the long ladder one after another.

As Zhao Hongrun guessed, the thoughts in the hearts of these Korean recruits were very simple and simple, that is, to defeat the Wei army and defend the country. This was exactly what Han Lihou and Han Wu ordered when they recruited soldiers in Handan, Wu'an, Guantao and other places.

Similar slogans, when the national crisis approached, he asked every Korean man to defend the country at the risk of his life.

It is this belief in defending the country that has kept this new army from collapsing despite nearly 70% casualties. This tenacity is truly worthy of admiration.

"...How long can this tenacity last?"

Zhao Hongrun stared at the battlefield expressionlessly.

In his opinion, although this new Korean army has firm beliefs, it lacks the corresponding strength - and firm beliefs alone are not enough to help them defeat the Wei army.

It is not an exaggeration to say that if these recruits are given another period of time to undergo rigorous training, I believe that these recruits will definitely play a huge role and at least pose some threat to the Wei army under Zhao Hongrun. But at the moment, these Korean recruits

He was still too young. He simply charged into the battle with enthusiasm, but could not pose any real threat to the Wei army. At best, it could only consume the latter's energy and physical strength.

Under such circumstances, even if you have firm belief and tenacious fighting spirit, how long can you persist?

Zhao Hongrun secretly felt sorry in his heart.

Just as he had guessed, half an hour later, when most of the Korean recruits responsible for the second wave of offensive had also suffered losses, even though those Korean recruits had very firm beliefs, they gradually showed signs of wavering——

The reason is that they cannot shake the Wei army at all and cannot pose any substantial threat to the Wei army.

Compared with the casualties, "finding that there is nothing you can do" is the biggest blow to the Korean recruits.

Of course, even so, Han Lihou Han Wu's goal was achieved. At least he used those new soldiers to effectively consume the physical strength of the Wei army defending the city. However, this method of fighting was too bloody and inhumane.

"Is it almost done?"

In the center of the Korean army, Yuyang Guard Qin Kai looked at the new recruits in front with some unbearable eyes and murmured in his mouth.

In his opinion, the Wei army guarding the city had already expended a lot of energy and physical strength on their Korean recruits, as well as a lot of crossbow arrows, which had created a very favorable situation for his Yuyang army or Shanggu army to attack the Julu city wall. conditions.

However, after waiting for a long time, Han Lihou and Han Wu sent someone to convey to him the Yuyang Army's order to prepare to attack the city.

"...Isn't it enough for Lihou?"

Qin Kai frowned, feeling a little anxious.

After all, in his eyes, those young soldiers who suffered heavy casualties were the future of Korea.

In order to create favorable conditions for defeating the Wei army, he did not hesitate to ask tens of thousands of young Korean men to die almost meaninglessly. Although Qin Kai could understand this kind of war, he could not accept it.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Kai personally rode his horse to the formation, asked to see Han Lihou Han Wu, and asked the latter: "Lihou, please leave the next siege to my Yuyang Army."

"Wait a moment." Li Hou Han Wu looked at the battlefield with a stern expression and said without looking back.

Seeing this, Qin Kai frowned and persuaded again: "Marquis Li, the casualties of the new soldiers are too great. This method of war is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Even if we are lucky enough to defeat the Wei army, our country will also..."

"..." Li Hou Han Wu turned to look at Qin Kai and said in a low tone: "I know that you and others disdain this tactic and think it is too ugly... but I, Han, need to win, even if Even if I win against ugliness, I will also win." After that, he ordered without refutation: "In half an hour, I will order you Yuyang Shou to take over the battle situation. General Qin Kai, please be patient and return to your own team to prepare for the attack. Just the city!"

Seeing that Li Hou Han Wu had made up his mind, Qin Kai, the governor of Yuyang, sighed helplessly.

After a while, Li Hou Han Wu once again ordered a square formation composed of more than a dozen new soldiers to continue the attack on Julu, trying not to give the Wei army in Julu City any chance to breathe.

It wasn't until the new troops who formed three waves of offensives suffered almost all casualties that he ordered the Yuyang Guards Qin Kai and the Shanggu Guards Ma She to jointly attack the city in an effort to capture Julu in one go.

It has to be said that although this whole tactic is indeed ugly, it cannot be denied that the sacrifices of many new soldiers did create favorable opportunities for the Korean army. At least the Wei army in Julu City was feeling tired at this moment.

In this case, the Yuyang Army and the Shanggu Army, which had been preparing for a long time, suddenly broke out and were unable to defeat the Wei Army.

"Sure enough, this is the trick..."

When he saw the Yuyang Army and Shanggu Army, the two Korean elites in the Korean army's formation, suddenly taking action, Zhao Hongrun sneered in his heart and couldn't help but frown.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. After thinking carefully, he said in a deep voice: "Open the city gate and let the Yuyang Army and Shanggu Army in."

"ah?"

After hearing this, the deputy general of the Shang Shui Army, Zhai Huang, was in disbelief: "Let the Korean army enter the city?"

"Ah, get rid of these two Korean elites in the city!"

Zhao Hongrun nodded and squinted his eyes as he looked at the Yuyang Army and Shanggu Army coming towards the city wall.

Is the bravery of Wei soldiers only reflected in large-scale legionary wars?

Not really!

Under certain special circumstances, Wei's soldiers became more powerful in combat.
