Upon hearing this, Gao Zheng's face turned dark.
The casualties in a siege battle were enormous; it wasn't easy to breach the city, let alone being in the first wave of siege soldiers.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen," Chen Mo smiled slightly. After all, having simulated it, he had a general idea of the development of the situation.
The reason the Yellow Turban rebels could breach so many cities was not just because of their numbers.
The main factor was their momentum. Their overwhelming numbers frightened the defending government troops, and with several cities already lost before, the official army had lost the will to fight. Weakened in momentum, they fell to the Yellow Turban Army.
Combat relies on courage. The successful capture of a city by the Yellow Turban rebels greatly boosted their confidence and courage.
Once their resolve was firm, they managed to conquer numerous cities with one decisive push.
As for the official army, they faltered again and again and again.
