Chapter 567: Chapter 567: Breaking the Fire Bull Formation (4)_1

This battle ended with the Tatars losing three generals, one severely injured and one lightly injured.

"Haha, let the Tatars be arrogant again." The morale of the Northern Land army was greatly boosted, and the spirit of the soldiers was full of energy.

In contrast, the morale of the enemy on the other side of the river seemed much lower.

"National Master, I request to fight again tomorrow. We must make those bastards pay." Hatred made the Tatar’s commander even more ferocious.

"Chief Commander, the deaths of our brothers cannot be in vain. I request to massacre the city."

...

"National Master." Bayal looked at Billy, who hadn’t spoken a word, his face equally gloomy. They had been too careless, resulting in such heavy losses.

"We will rest tomorrow." The National Master spoke coldly.

"National Master."

"Master." The soldiers were unconvinced, and even more unwilling to accept it.

"The Fire Bull Formation is enough to bury them alive, whether they open the city gates or not. With the Fire Bulls, capturing the city will be a piece of cake." Billy said coldly.

"The National Master is right." Bayal also calmed down. "As long as the Fire Bulls arrive, we can break through Border City without any casualties. After entering the city, do whatever you want. For now, be patient and wait."

A desperate battle was inevitable. The weather was getting colder, and the first snow would arrive soon. By then, the severe cold would be their biggest enemy. They couldn’t afford to wait, they had to conserve their energy and quickly decide the battle.

Pride leads to downfall. Luo Heng, while celebrating their victory with the soldiers, also passionately warned them to remain vigilant and not underestimate the enemy.

The soldiers dared not to take it lightly. In the past half a year, they had been practising fighting in queues to crack the Fire Bull Formation. The power of the Fire Bull Formation had long been deeply rooted in their hearts.

Three days of rest, both parties were conserving energy.

"According to the spy’s message, the Fire Bull will arrive tomorrow." Luo Heng started.

"Prince, once the Fire Bull arrives, the enemy will launch an attack." Situ Gong also looked at Chu Suifeng, "East City’s defense is in the hands of Jiang Shan, South City is defended by Pan Li, and West City is watched by Luo Ying. The Tatars’ desire to win by surprise is bound to fail."

"It would be best if we could cut off their retreat." Lin Ziyin was also in the camp.

"The Tatars build bridges by connecting floats, even if we send people to drill through their boats, it will not help. These boats are tied with ropes, once the rope is cut, the boats can separate. Moreover, Billy is a very cautious person. When using the floating bridge, he will definitely consider that we might use fire or drill the boat, he must have a backup plan." Situ Gong answered.

If they had a modern bomber, Lin Ziyin thought privately. But this thought only lingered in her mind for a moment and then it was over.

She didn’t want to bring modern lethal weapons to ancient times, even if she could create a simple plane.

"Wei Chengzhi will lead the crossbowmen to cooperate with the Long Spear Team to break the Fire Bull, and Xun Weichun will follow up." Luo Heng started to assign tasks.

...

Lin Ziyin quietly listened to Chu Suifeng and others arranging manpower, assigning tasks, and gained a new understanding of Luo Heng and Situ Gong. Ancient people’s wisdom is indeed not to be underestimated.

She had explained the thirty-six stratagems to Chu Suifeng, Situ Gong, and Si Jinhan, but didn’t expect that Situ Gong could make such thorough arrangements based on the actual situation in the Northern Land.

Whether it’s the mobilization of personnel or the method of setting up the formation, in Lin Ziyin’s view, the arrangements of Chu Suifeng and Situ Gong are quite comprehensive. Even in modern military exercises, their arrangements can be considered clever.
