Chapter 0342 - Go or Stay
Wang Qiuyuan had a mind of relying on the mountains and taking risks, he only had 3,000 men and horses at hand, and once the Qing army attacked the troops, he could only retreat to Octagon. Before, he also wanted to hijack Qing Gege to negotiate with the Qing court, but he didn't want Qing Gege to be scheming, and he couldn't do anything about her for a while. At this time, the Qing army brigade came to the rescue, but they could only avoid to the octagonal and wait for the opportunity to find a way. In any case, Saroben is still in Wang Qiu's hands, and there will always be a time to make a comeback.
Without further ado, Wang Qiu said a few words to the soldiers in Tibetan, and the rear team of the soldiers became the front team, and they flew away all the way.
Seeing the soldiers leaving, Inspector Hailan let out a sigh of relief, sweating profusely on his face. He wiped it with his sleeve and glanced at Qing Gege beside him. Qing Gege's expression was indifferent, calm and relaxed, and he seemed to be in a no-man's land among thousands of troops. Hailancha secretly said ashamed, as a banner general, Cheng DΓΉ was not as calm as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl!
"Qing Gege's design is ingenious, and Hailancha admires it very much!" Hailancha said from the bottom of his heart.
"It's just a guide due to the situation, Ruoqing is also very weak-minded, and I don't know whether it will succeed or not. It's just that the matter is urgent, so I can only gamble. Gege said slowly, facing Wang Qiu's departure, there was no color on his face. There is no panic when the situation is embarrassing, and when the trick is successful, she is not complacent because of her achievements.
As soon as he arrived on a flying horse, he arrived in front of Gege, flew off his horse, and bowed to Gege. This man's face was covered with dust, and when he looked closely, it was a dark fragrance.
There was a hint of surprise in Dark Fragrance's voice that couldn't be hidden: "According to Gege's orders, the soldiers really retreated?!" β
Gege hummed softly. looked at the dark fragrance and said, "You've worked hard this night!" β
Dark Fragrance got up and smiled, revealing her white shiny teeth: "Time is pressing, Dark Fragrance has to steal sheep and drums overnight." I'm just afraid that I will miss Gege's business. Here are all shepherds, sheep are nothing, that is, in the middle of the night, the sheep bleated, woke up the owner, and thought that the dark fragrance was a wolf pack in the mountains, and almost stabbed the dark fragrance a few Louzi. β
Gege looked at him with a dirty face. Dressed as a wolf, Wen Yan said: "As long as you're okay!" β
Dark incense's heart moved, and she almost didn't shed tears.
Originally. This night, Dark Fragrance did not go to the Qing army camp to come. Gege knew that Yue Zhongqi's army had left three or five days before them, and they had been delayed here for another three or five days. In the past ten days, it is estimated that they have returned to Chengdu as soon as possible. I never thought that Gege would be besieged by Wang Qiu. Expecting that Wang Qiu would inevitably come to rob and kill in the morning, Gege arranged for Dark Xiang to also learn to hang the sheep and beat the drum, which was arranged in the mountainside in advance. Just waiting for Gege to wave his hand, the big flag behind him swayed, and Dark Xiang ordered dozens of sergeants to tie up the sheep, and the mountains were full of drums.
Wang Qiu didn't know what the plan was, and thought that Yue Zhongqi's army was really nearby. But he was invited by the Qing soldiers who escaped, and fled to Octagon in a panic.
"Fan Bing is gone. It's time for us to have a good meal. Hailancha said with a smile.
Gege nodded slightly and said, "Dark fragrance has worked hard all night, eat well, rest and rest." After we have eaten and drunk, we will think about the following strategies. β
The sound of horses' hooves was dusty again, but it was the soldiers brought by the dark incense who came. Dark incense wanted to report the good news to Gege as soon as possible, so she came first. Now the soldiers packed up the sheep and rushed back.
The ready-made sheep were just enough for the Qing army to have a full meal. The siege of the past few days was tense and uneasy, but at this time, he escaped alive, and there were delicious kebabs to eat, which was really an unexpected surprise. The soldiers cheered and shouted only that they were wise!
After a full meal, the question to be considered quickly is whether to retreat or chase. Hailancha is also very entangled, he only has a thousand soldiers, and Wang Qiu has 3,000 men and horses, if he retreats to the octagonal army, plus the octagonal defenders, there are almost five or six thousand people, and he will definitely not be able to defeat him. But do you want to go back? The emperor asked Sha Luoben to personally face the monarch to ask for guilt, and the main task of Hailancha's trip was also to escort Sha Luoben back to Rehe, and Sha Luoben was still in Wang Qiu's hands in front of him, if there was no Sha Luoben, Hailancha's head would also be off. If you want to pursue, you can only go to Chengdu to move the army, and for this, there may be a chance of victory.
When she entered Gege's tent, she found that Qing Gege was writing quietly, and it was rare for her to have such leisure during such a march.
"Humble Sha Luo Ben to Qing Gege please peace!" Hailancha replied with a salute.
Qing Gege didn't raise his head and said, "Got it, you sit down first, and I'll finish writing these last few words." β
Hailancha replied: "Don't be busy! β
Gege finished the last few words intently and put down the brush. The maid next to her brought a basin of water, Qing Gege cleaned her hands, wiped it with a handkerchief, and then raised her head and asked, "Is there something wrong with Haiqian?" β
"Humble duty, humble duty~~~" Hailancha wanted to speak and stopped, as a thousand presidents, he had no idea about everything, if he marched and fought in the future, what would he do in the future?
Gege observed the words, guessed halfway through, and said with a slight smile: "Hai Qian is only in his twenties, brave and strategic, just after some more training, he must be a general of the imperial court." If Qing is lucky to win, it is not enough to worry! Gege's words are mostly soothing.
Hailancha was ashamed and said: "Humble and incompetent! Let Qing Gege be wronged! β
Ge Gwen said: "Hai Qian doesn't have to blame himself. Seeing his hesitation, Gege asked again, "Is there always something wrong with Haiqian?" β
Hailancha replied: "Don't hide from Qing Gege, I don't know how to act, and come and listen to Gege's thoughts." Our army lost Salopun, and it must be pursued back. However, Wang Qiu fled to the octagon, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there were more than 1,000 stone forts. Before, when he followed Zhang Guangsi, he had seen that kind of battle, our army was in the open, the enemy army was in the dark, and if we wanted to attack openly, there would be defeat and no victory. For this reason, it is very difficult to do a lowly job, so I came to consult Qing Gege. β
Gege groaned and said, "Our army has only 1,000 men, but we have to pursue 3,000 men and horses from Salopen. As far as I know, there are still a number of defenders in Bajiao, and if Wang Qiu is agitated, there will be four or five thousand military horses. But in terms of numbers, it is very disadvantageous to our army. β
"So does Qing Gege mean to let Wang Qiu go for the time being? The humble post also thought about this, our army can go to Chengdu for help, as soon as the army comes, or we can win the octagonal and take Wang Qiu! β
"Chengdu is still five days away from here, and it has been delayed for more than ten days, and if there is a change in these ten days, Wang Qiu ran away with Sha Luo, and the emperor asked, you and I are speechless. In my opinion, you ordered three or five of your own soldiers to go to Chengdu to find General Yue and ask him to send troops over. You and I will lead the army to Octagon first to stabilize Wang Qiu! β
Gege took a certain amount of risk in this move. Even if you hide it from Wang Qiu for a while, how can you hide it from him for a day? I'm afraid that at this time, Wang Qiu has already heard and understood that the Qing army's camp is two hundred miles away, and unless the Qing army sits on a cannon, it will be difficult to move the army overnight? Is it really possible that Gege wants to besiege Wang Qiu's 5,000 soldiers with 1,000 men and horses? (To be continued......)
