Chapter 427: Retreat

However, despite the shock, the Xia generals could no longer be distracted from studying what kind of weapons the Xinghua army used, and the Xia army encountered a fierce ambush! As a general, the immediate urgency was that he must immediately distinguish the situation, and then find a way to lead the army soldiers to deal with the enemy's attack.

However, in fact, the rifle used by the Xinghua Army to ambush the Xia Army, except for the soldiers of the Dongli Army, who had been taught, there was no army of any country in the entire Otherworldly Continent that had seen this murderous weapon of the Xinghua Army. Therefore, even if the general of Xia Guo found out that this was a weapon that was many times more lethal than the crystal energy gun, he didn't know how to dodge the attack of the rifle, and naturally he didn't know how to find the key points to dodge the bullet, such as bending down, advancing on the ground, or quickly finding something strong that could prevent being pierced by bullets, etc. What's more, the speed of the bullets flying was extremely fast, he didn't even see clearly, the rifle fired countless bullets, and all he could see was the Xia soldiers who fell to the ground one after another.

Even the generals couldn't understand, let alone the other Xia soldiers, because they had never seen such a powerful weapon, and they were even more terrified of this unknown but extremely terrifying weapon!

All of a sudden, the ambushed Xia army was suddenly beaten into scattered sand, and the soldiers looked around nervously and panickedly, and they didn't even dare to act alone to find a hiding place, even more afraid that they would die faster if they were alone! The generals also hurriedly gathered the soldiers.

Seeing this, Li Ke and Eli looked at each other and smiled. Their mission was finally accomplished. I was afraid that the Xia State army would run too scattered, but since this large number of Xia State soldiers had gathered together as they wished, and all of them had been introduced into Zanglong Valley, then they needed to hurry up and seize the opportunity to start the next step.

But their next step. It's not that he continues to use his rifles to kill the Xia soldiers who have gathered together. First, the bullets in their rifles were not enough to completely annihilate the Xia soldiers in front of them, and second, if they continued to kill the Xia army in a scattered manner, it was difficult to guarantee that they would really flee from Zanglong Valley in a hurry because they were outwhelmed. That would be a pipe loss.

Now, the two of them must stop the attack, leave immediately, and give up the temporary camp to the Xia army. Only by giving the Xia army time to take a breath and be busy arranging troops, or thinking that they are safe for the time being and will not be attacked again, will they not run away from this Zanglong Valley in a hurry. Only in this way can we buy time for the next move of the army commanded by Yi Xingchen.

So. Li Ke and Eli hurriedly hurried to lead their troops to retreat. In the battle between the two armies, some soldiers were hit by arrows in their limbs, so they did not forget to hurriedly carry these wounded on their backs, and left quickly through the back door of the temporary camp together.

The Xia army, who did not know that another wave of bigger attacks would land on them, really fell into the plan and found that the enemy's attack stopped for a while. I thought that their forces were more concentrated and that the enemy needed time to adjust. Therefore, Xia Jun also began to study the strategy against the enemy.

A quarter of an hour later, the generals of the Xia army made the decision to attack again, but the strategy of arranging troops was adjusted. This round of counterattacks, let the archers cover and the cavalry charge. Infantry cover kill.

Four hundred meters away from the back door of the temporary camp, there is a bend. But inside this bend, there is actually an ambush of the mortar unit of the Xinghua Royal Guard.

"You guys are doing a good job!" Seeing that Li Ke and Eli successfully led the enemy into the urn and led the Xinghua soldiers to retreat smoothly as scheduled, Yi Xingchen praised them.

This time, it's a trick to lure the enemy. At this point, half of the success has been achieved, and then, Li Ke and Eli can be regarded as a successful retreat, allowing the Xinghua Royal Guard led by the king to take over and launch further strategies to kill the enemy!

According to Yi Xingchen's order, the Guards Army was the main attack, and the Xilin Army was the assist.

Just as the Xinghua Royal Guard was about to go into battle.

Boom, boom, boom......

Several loud and deafening noises suddenly came from the direction of the makeshift camp.

This was the sound of the explosion, and it was also the several wire grenades that Li Ke and the others had arranged in the temporary camp before retreating, which was also one of Yi Xingchen's orders in advance. Hearing this, Yi Xingchen was not surprised, if nothing else, it should be a soldier of the Xia Army, who ran into a trap and detonated a grenade.

This is exactly the best signal for the army to attack!

So, Yi Xingchen took out his saber and sat on a folding chair behind the mortar unit. The mortar team headquarters has already set up mortars and is waiting for His Majesty's order to attack at any time.

In front of the mortar, a thousand Guards soldiers armed with submachine guns from the Xinghua royal army were ambushed.

After the generals of the Xia State set up their camp, the soldiers of the Xia army attacked in one fell swoop and entered the camp of the Xinghua army in Zanglong Valley.

The generals of the Xia Kingdom, who stayed in place, while observing the army's attack, suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the situation in front of them.

Just now, their Xia army was originally attacked by the enemy, although the enemy suspended the attack and had the possibility of resting for a while, but after their Xia army attacked, the time was too long, and there was no movement, which seemed strange to anyone.

Just when the generals of the Xia army were suspicious.

"Report! The enemy has fled!"

A young general of the Xia army who attacked the temporary camp of the Xinghua army rushed back on a fast horse and reported the situation to the generals of the Xia army. Hearing this, the generals of the Xia Army suddenly had all the doubts in their hearts and breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the enemy army was not resting, but was afraid that their army would be overwhelmed and abandoned the battle and fled.

But the general of the Xia army immediately thought of the loud noise he heard just now, and immediately asked the young general in front of him for verification: "What happened to the loud noise just now?"

"It's a trap for the enemy. The enemy was not reconciled to defeat and left behind explosives. The young general reported.

When the generals of the Xia army heard this, they were immediately shocked again, and hurriedly asked: "Is our army ambushed? What are the casualties?"

"It had an impact, but fortunately it was not close to the place where the explosion occurred, so there were not many wounded, and about four or five small soldiers were disabled. The teenager replied.

The leading general of the Xia army breathed a sigh of relief again, this sudden impact was really tiring.

But it's still a thrill. When he attacked just now, a few of the 1,000 soldiers did not come back, and if he continued to lose, the commander would definitely punish him.

However, the leading general had just breathed a sigh of relief and tensed up again. He thought of the most crucial point, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the grain and grass?"

"The enemy's grain and grass have not moved, we have grabbed the grain and grass!" said the young general with a happy face, "Everyone is counting the grain and grass, please send troops to protect it to prevent the enemy from going and returning." ”

The leading general heard this. Nodding, he didn't want to lose the food he had grabbed. The leading general ordered all the troops to enter the temporary camp and transport the grain and grass back to the Chinese army camp as soon as possible.

The army entered the camp, and the leading general, surrounded by the guards, walked in front of the grain and grass.

Looking at the piles of grain like a hill, the leading general was excited, and he climbed into a grain truck. Wanting to say something to their soldiers, wanting to tell them that they are not far from victory, and maybe, soon they will be able to return home.

Suddenly, there was a sound of humbling in the distance, followed by the entire makeshift camp. Surrounded by the sound of explosions.

A hundred mortars, shells to your heart's content. Sprinkle to the makeshift camp.

The leading general of the Xia army was directly killed by a shell. His personal guards didn't even have a chance to save him.

The entire Xia army was devastated, with more than 5,000 Xia infantry. I lost my courage when I was bombed.

The general of the cavalry of the Xia army, quickly judging where the shells came from, hurriedly gathered more than 500 knights, and along the road behind the temporary camp, wanted to rush through the bend. Go to the enemy army.

At this time, the cavalry of the Xia Kingdom saw the bend behind Zanglong Valley, and there was a neatly formed army, slowly walking towards them. This is the Xinghua Royal Guards who have been lying in ambush in Zanglong Valley, and the shelling is about to end, they walked out of the bend, holding weapons, and launched an attack on the Xia army in the camp.

The general of the Xia Army's cavalry, led more than 500 cavalry, and when he saw the Xinghua Royal Guards in strange clothes, he was a little puzzled, but he quickly guessed that they were the culprits who killed and injured the Xia army. With hatred in their eyes, the Xia cavalry slapped their horses fiercely, held their swords, and rushed towards the Xinghua army.

However, the weapons of the Royal Guards were not only one or two times stronger than those of the Cillin Legion.

The power of the submachine gun is enough for a thousand Royal Guards soldiers to exert a powerful attack force far exceeding that of 10,000 riflemen of the Xilin Legion.

The Xia army of more than 500 horsemen, with a heroic spirit that will never return, launched a charge. But they didn't even touch the side of the Xinghua Royal Guard, and they were beaten to pieces, and the whole army was annihilated, and there was not a single cavalry standing, not even a standing horse.

The more than 500 cavalry of the Xia army are already the last capable force of this Xia army to grab grain. The rest of the Xia army had already lost its courage in mortar fighting, and not only suffered heavy losses, but also lost morale, and could no longer organize itself in a short period of time to form an effective combat force.

The mortar fire has stopped, and the Xinghua Guards continue to attack.

Inside and outside the camp, the soldiers who were able to move the Xia army fled backwards one after another, not daring to resist. In the camp, there were Xia soldiers rolling everywhere, their eardrums were shattered by the sound of cannonballs, and more soldiers were lying on the ground, impacted by the ground shaken by the shells, and could no longer pick up their swords.

Xinghua Army, successfully stormed the temporary camp.

In the battle, the Xinghua army annihilated at least 5,000 Xia troops, which greatly damaged the Xia army.

When Yi Xingchen stood in the temporary camp in ruins, the soldiers of the Xinghua Army had already cleaned up the corpses, and the Xia Army prisoners were also sent to the rear.

Yi Xingchen waved his hand forward and ordered the royal guards to continue to advance.

Soon, the defeated Xia army returned. Bai Qi was taken aback when he learned of the defeat of the Xia army, he had no expectation of this result at all. He inquired many times, and repeatedly confirmed that the Xia army was really defeated, and Bai Qi immediately stopped the siege plan. The feint attack on Wangdongcheng was less than halfway through, and all the troops were withdrawn.

Then, Bai Qi ordered scouts to ride and scout horses, and go around to find out what kind of army Zang Long Valley was, and when they would arrive.

According to the description of the defeated soldiers of the Xia army, the Xia army soon found out some important news.

This army is not the army that left the east! It is the great enemy of the army that left the east -- the Xinghua army!

Hearing this news, Bai Qi's first reaction was that he had been fooled. Then, his face turned white and blue. Xia Jun has not yet made it clear that it is He Jun, so he started to grab food, which is not wrong. The mistake is that they misjudged the form, and regarded Dongli as the strongest army in the local area.

What Bai Qi didn't expect was that the reason why the Xia army smoothly hit Wangdong City was because the elite of the Dongli country had long been wiped out by the Xinghua army.

"Commander, we want revenge!" the generals shouted, wanting revenge.

At this time, it is unknown whether we can return to China smoothly!" Bai Qi said angrily. This group of rough generals, didn't they know that Xia Jun was about to face a two-sided attack?

As for the Xinghua Army and the Dongli Army, they are enemies, and they will not unite. In this case, Bai Qi didn't believe it at all. Otherwise, why did the Xinghua army attack the Xia army. Don't they know the strength of the Xia Kingdom?

At this time, what Bai Qi was thinking about was to preserve his strength and return to the Xia Kingdom. Once this Yunzhou army is lost and leaves the country in the east, where will they find soldiers to guard the pass? Defend against the enemy's army? What's more, their Yunzhou army of the Xia State has already lost one-third, and if they don't leave, what will they do?

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!" Bai Qi shouted three times in a row.

The generals were stunned, not knowing why Bai Qi had such a life.

"Our army estimated earlier that there were no less than 50,000 defenders in Wangdong City, plus the enemy who came to help, and the Xia army was already in danger. Bai Qi explained.

The generals suddenly realized that they had to admire.

At this time, everyone remembered that in fact, they had won the battle and had military exploits. If it fails, not only will the previous efforts be wasted, but it may also be buried in a foreign land and there will be no place to bury.

No one in the generals of the Xia army had any doubts, and with the orders of the commander-in-chief, the soldiers of the Xia army abandoned the heavy ordnance and materials, abandoned the large camp, distributed food, and withdrew to the east with light and valuable booty.

Yi Xingchen led the royal guards and arrived outside Wangdong City, where he was shocked to see the chaotic Xia army camp. The decisiveness of the commander of the Xia Army made the plan of annihilating the enemy formulated by the senior officers of the Xinghua Army completely fail.

"Why doesn't Xia Jun want to retaliate at all?"

"It's so simple! Just left, there were still a lot of valuable things in the camp. ”

Yi Xingchen listened to everyone's discussions, smiled and said: "This commander of the Xia army is a person! Order the intelligence bureau to pay attention to the movements of this Xia army and collect information about the commander of the Xia army. ”

"Do you want to pursue?" asked Leon.

Yi Xingchen thought for a while and said, "Leon, you lead the three thousand soldiers of the Xilin Legion to harass while pursuing, driving the Xia army back to the Xia Kingdom, don't let them come back." After a pause, Yi Xingchen said solemnly: "By the way, occupy the territory, publicize the legitimate status of the Xinghua government, and inform the people in this land that the Dongli country no longer exists, and the king of Xinghua will be their only king." ”

Leon was unwilling, he wanted to attack Wangdong City and make great contributions.

However, the king's order could not be violated, and Leon did not have the slightest idea of refusing, and immediately led the three thousand riflemen of the Xilin Army to the east to pursue the Xia army. (To be continued.) )
