Chapter Twenty-Four: Vicious Tricks

The continuous pursuit lasted for nearly 100 miles, and it was not until Sun Hong was about to approach the 30,000 army in the rear that Jia Lin gave up continuing the pursuit.

In this battle, the 5,000 vanguard army led by Sun Hong killed more than 1,500 people, captured more than 2,200 people, and the rest all fled.

The main general Sun Hong escaped in a hurry under the protection of more than a dozen personal guards, and after escaping back, the 30,000 infantry were affected by this defeat, their morale was demoralized, and the speed of their march was greatly reduced.

Long Lin led more than 3,000 pairs of armor and more than 2,800 uninjured war horses, which can be said to have greatly damaged the morale of the Eastern Navy and greatly increased the morale of the soldiers and civilians of Longlin County.

"Sister Jialin, are you back?" Looking at the returning Jia Lin, Keer said with a smile.

"Thanks to your little brain's whimsy. It was both sheep and cattle, especially the fire ox, which was a great achievement. Originally, I was just hoping that your sheep's drumming method would make them tired. Jia Lin laughed heartily: "This big victory is enough to boost our morale." ”

Ke'er nodded, looking into the distance, her eyebrows still furrowed: "It's just that it's hard for us to deal with it next." As soon as the army of the Eastern Navy arrived, our methods were only a small fight. ”

"yes. Fortunately, His Excellency Ziyan had already purchased a large amount of food and weapons. It is enough to supply the soldiers and civilians of our territory to fight a protracted war with each other. Jia Lin knew what Kerr was worried about: "All we have to do now is to hold back the speed of the other party's march." They couldn't have brought too much supplies. And we've cut them off from being able to get supplies from their realms. So we just have to compete with each other to consume more energy. ”

Ke'er is not so optimistic, although there are many mountainous areas in Longlin County, but there are not many deep mountains like the Qinglan Mountain Range, if the other party's army arrives and enters the mountains to search, it will be difficult for the people of the territory to avoid after all.

"Let the folks withdraw." After all, Ke'er decided to be conservative: "Try to retreat in the direction of the Qinglan Mountain Range." We can't take risks, and we don't have the qualifications to leave anything to chance. ”

Jia Lin applauded Kerr's decision, being cautious, not taking risks, and not doing things that she was not sure of. This is a good decision for a situation where the enemy forces are far superior to their own.

The Duke's Mansion of Donghai City, the capital of Donghai County, looked at the encounter told by his son on the letter, and his face was even more ugly.

"Generals, you all understand the situation. What do you think of this girl? Sun Canghai looked at the generals of his territory.

"Lord Duke, this defeat is not the fault of the young master." A veteran with white hair said, "We didn't expect that the news of our sudden attack would be leaked. Second, the little girl's tactics are simply unprecedented, and people can't guard against them. Third, the other party has taken advantage of the geographical advantage, and the young master has no logistical guarantee. Under various circumstances, there is this failure. ”

Donghai Gong's face looked a little better: "In that case, Old General Lin." So how do we fight next? ”

"Lord Duke, judging from the other party's reaction, I am afraid that the tactics of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness have been implemented. It's unlikely that we'll get supplies from Longlin County. Old General Lin stroked his long beard and said slowly: "If this is the case, our supplies must be in place." We simply take it step by step, steadily and steadily, so that the other party is invulnerable. In this way, the battle will be won. ”

"The old general's words are wrong." One young general retorted: "We can bring supplies for six months at most." If the march is like this, it will be delayed for a long time. In that case, once we run out of supplies, won't we be defeated without a fight? Lord Duke, depending on the following, why don't we attack it quickly and save it. Only in this way can we force the other side to fight a head-on battle with us, and only in this way can it be possible to strike a blow to the other side's vital forces. As long as the opponent's little force is eliminated, won't those civilians who are hiding be pinched and rounded with us? ”

The Duke of Donghai was very interested in the words of this young general: "Then according to you, where is the place where they must be saved? ”

"Dragon's Landing Town." The young general laughed: "I remember that there is a family cemetery of the Yun family in Longlin Town. As long as we let out the word, we will dig up the graves of the Yun family and whip the corpses, and we will definitely be able to confront us head-on. ”

"Yes, that's a good idea. And not only do you have to dig up the grave and whip the corpse, but you also have to hang up all the bones of the Yun family's ancestors to show the public. Sun Canghai said coldly

"Lord Duke, this must not be done, absolutely not." Hearing this, General Lin's face changed greatly: "Once this matter is done, it is bound to be insulted by the world." The Duke will also be the object of hostility of all nobles. Moreover, Lord Duke, and most importantly, I am afraid that the military will also be extremely dissatisfied with us, and even directly raise troops against us. ”

"General Lin, you're wrong. Now we are on the orders of the emperor to crusade against the rebellion of the Empire. Who dares to say more? The crime of treason is even the nine clans, and I whipped the corpses of the ancestors of the Yun family to show the public, but I did it in accordance with the law. Military? Unless they also want to rebel, I don't think any of them dare to make small moves? Sun Canghai sneered

"Lei Han, you set off immediately with 20,000 cavalry, and join the 30,000 infantry who had set out earlier, and after seeing my son, you will be his adjutant. Assist him well, and when you come back from your great achievements, I will reward you well. Sun Canghai said to the young general.

"Yes, Lord Duke. In the next must live up to the mission. ”

Soon, everyone dispersed, and Sun Canghai left Lei Han behind.

"Lord Duke, what else do you command?" Lei Han bowed.

Sun Canghai smiled sympathetically, then turned back to the room next to the seat and said, "Master, do you think you need to give me some hole cards just in case?" ”

A creepy voice came out of the room: "Boom...... The Duke can't wait for these little ones to be born? Then let the little general lead the two heads this time. ”

As this voice fell, the room where two palm-sized miserable white skeletons fluttered flew towards Lei Han: "Little General, when you encounter an enemy that is difficult to match, break the seal on it, you take advantage of the opportunity, and it is best not to use it." As for the control zhì, I will let my disciples go with you. ”

Lei Han's hairs stood on end, holding the pair of small skeletons in his hands, and his heart was hairy. The skeletons looked like the bones of a giant dragon. However, the dragon clan is located at the top of the spirit beasts, and rarely appears on the mainland. Only the few qualified disciples of the Seven Holy Lands will be regarded by the dragon clan as incubating and taking care of the dragon eggs. He had a hard time believing that it was the bones of a pair of dragons in his hands, but they were too similar.

"Hahaha, did you hear what the master said? Go, there is this pair of treasures given to you by the master, even if the other party has an army of 100,000, it is just a chicken and a dog. Sun Canghai laughed.

Lei Han could only take the order and leave.

The master's disciple was shrouded in a black robe, and the occasional outstretched hand was also pale, making Lei Han wonder if this was a living person. In the end, Lei Han simply didn't talk to this person.

After a month of hurrying, Lei Han finally joined Sun Hong, and Sun Hong's infantry had also entered Longlin County for several days at this time.

After listening to Lei Han's idea, Sun Hong showed a cruel smile on his face: "General Lei is worthy of being the first general of the younger generation in my Donghai County, you can rest assured, after this victory, I will definitely let my father make you the marshal." If the master had asked me to bring this little thing earlier, I would have destroyed those bastards in Longlin County a long time ago. We will lead the cavalry to attack them by surprise. ”

The two then led a cavalry army of 20,000 towards Longlin Town.

This time, the 20,000 cavalry in the Lei Han belt was not comparable to Sun Hong's 5,000 cavalry last time.

Although Lei Han only had 20,000 cavalry, each cavalry brought two more horses.

In this way, it can not only transfer vehicles, but also carry supplies, and can also maintain the movement of cavalry to the greatest extent.

At such a marching speed, the army quickly arrived at Longlin County.

Only this time it was unexpected, and they didn't encounter much resistance, only occasionally there were some traps, but there were no more sneak attacks.

Obviously, the other party also knows that under such a disparity in strength, the sneak attack may even be eaten by the other party. Therefore, it was not rash.

"Young Master, it's time to let out the news. Now release the news, and when we feel that Longlin Town, they won't have much time to react. The only choice is to confront us head-on. Lei Han looked at his own location on the map, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes.

"Okay, let's release the news immediately, saying that we will dig up the ancestral grave of the Yun family and whip all the ancestors of the Yun family to show the corpses. Hahahaha...... "Sun Hong felt relieved when he thought that he could take revenge like this.

The news spread quickly.

After hearing the news, Ke'er's eyes immediately turned red.

"Kerr, don't be impulsive. By doing so, they are trying to force us out. Jia Lin hurriedly comforted.

"How dare they? How can they? In the cemetery of the Yun family, not only the ancestors of the Yun family, but also the bones of the tens of millions of martyrs of the Yun family army who sacrificed their lives for the country. How dare they? Ke'er couldn't help but burst into tears, and shouted angrily: "Aren't they afraid of being scolded by the people of the empire?" Aren't you afraid of becoming an enemy of the imperial nobility? Aren't you afraid of becoming an enemy of the Empire's million-strong army? ”

Jia Lin closed her eyes and said slowly, "Why don't they dare?" They are already mad, and they dare to do such a thing as selling the people of the empire to the steppe wolf court as slaves, what else do they dare not do? News from the imperial capital that His Majesty Xià is seriously ill and has not shown up once so far. What else do they not dare to do now? ”

Ke'er pursed her lips and said hatefully: "Sister Jialin." I will never let them go to the Yun family cemetery like this. I'm going to the Baron's Court and waiting for them. I'll try to hold them back. And you...... Led the army to fight them in Longlin Town. Longlin Town is full of stone houses, so you don't have to worry about them setting fires. Moreover, it is not suitable for their cavalry operations, the streets are narrow, and it is difficult to effectively play the advantage of their large number of troops. ”

"It's not going to work. You can't have an accident. Jia Lin hurriedly stopped: "You are now the backbone of all the military and civilians, if something happens to you, what should you do?" ”

"I am the young master's maid, and I am also the head of the Yun family. I am also the daughter of the Hong family, the Yun family's guard family, and a descendant of the Yun family's army. I will never allow them to do that. Unless they step on my corpse to pass. Ke'er resolutely said: "I will hold them back for a while, and during this time, I will rely on you." The terrain of Dragon's Landing Town didn't give their cavalry much room to play. Arrange it well, and we will definitely teach them a hard lesson. It's just that if something happens to me, please take care of the young master on my behalf. Don't stop me either, or I'll die here. ”

Jia Lin didn't continue to stop it, because Kerr's resolute eyes told her that she had made this decision with a mortal heart. It's just that Jia Lin doesn't know what method she wants to use to delay the other party's footsteps. xh118
