A day ago, under sunset.

On November 12, at this time, the main force of the Zhuo Luolan tribe had marched to the Nanzong area, and it seemed that a real pocket had been formed, and it was about to be able to encircle and suppress the Wang Yan tribe trapped in the Hetao area.

Unfortunately, at this time, I received a letter from Wang Yan and the body of Nantong Mi covered by the military flag.

After reading the letter, Zhuo Luolan was not angry, there was no longer so much anger to be angry about. As long as there are two to three more days, Wang Yan will be within reach, and winning the Hehuang War is just around the corner.

But the sky did not support Western Xia, and Wang Yan finally crippled the Tile Spur Corps and annihilated the Nantong Secret Corps under almost impossible circumstances.

There was no time to tell how to deal with the envoy of the Song army who sent the letter, Zhuo Luolan hurriedly dismounted, trembled his hands slightly, lifted the military flag of the Southern Army, and looked at the bloody Nantongmi, his eyes were a little red, and he was a little regretful, but there was no hatred.

As a soldier, he was considered complete, when he started the war with the Liao State, he was a subordinate of Zhuo Luolan's father, and he took Zhuo Luolan, who was still a little girl, to protect him like a wet daddy.

Now, the general will inevitably die in battle. He unfortunately met Wang Yan, the best military commander of the day, and died on the banks of the Huangshui River. This is not a shame, but a happy end to his military career.

The sentence in Wang Yan's letter: "General Nantong Mi is a great soldier, he just accepted the wrong command at the wrong time and threw himself into the wrong battlefield." I hope that General Zhuo Luolan will reassess the situation on the battlefield in Hehuang and the situation in the world", and now this sentence is deeply rooted in Zhuo Luolan's heart.

He may be demagogic, but he is by no means alarmist. From the very beginning, the strategic environment was damaged by several mistakes by Manba, which made it less and less likely to win the Battle of Hehuang.

By now, Zhuo Luolan thinks that there is no longer any possibility, but the difference between losing miserably and when it will be lost.

If you wait for the response of the Western Xia court now, and Zhuo Luolan takes over the command, then although it is at a disadvantage, it still has nearly 60,000 main forces, and it has basically entered the winter recuperation period.

Unfortunately, today is November 12, and the plan to besiege Wang Yan's troops with heavy troops, with the defeat of the battle between Tonghuang and Minhe, was declared bankrupt.

At this time, Zhuo Luolan asked herself: Of course, you can not listen to persuasion, continue to go south, and then drive Wang Yanbu back to the south bank of Huangshui. But there is no strategic point in doing so other than to pull hatred.

The Zhuo Luolan Department has abandoned the southern line of Huangshui and moved north in violation of the order, and how to fight this lawsuit at the political level in the future is not to be said later, in fact, it is equivalent to the southern line returning to the hands of the Woo Luo regime. Even if Wang Yan's troops were driven back, Wang Yan could still receive supplies and reinforcements from the Lanzhou administrative region of the Song State from the front line of Ningchuan and Anchuan.

As a military commander, you can suffer defeat, for example, even if you are a god. But a sober military commander must do things with a purpose. So now I don't want to go south to besiege Wang Yan, it's really not that Zhuo Luolan listened to Wang Yan's persuasion. It's because it doesn't make any sense.

It is something that can be done or not done, so according to Wang Yan's theory: this kind of thing must not be done. Because this is a war, not a cultural tourism.

It can be seen that in the future, it is only a matter of time before the Western Xia expeditionary force is defeated, so now Zhuo Luolan is faced with a choice: is it to listen to Wang Yan's suggestion and rush to Xining Prefecture to stop the Manba massacre? Or do you want to pull the main force of the Southern Army Division to the front line of the Ancient Bone Dragon City to stand by?

The advantage of choosing the latter is that once the battle situation becomes more irreversible, Zhuo Luolan only needs to take one step to enter the territory of Western Xia and return to his hometown.

This is a commander's responsible behavior to his subordinates, but it is too politically sensitive, and after violating the military order and crossing the Huangshui, it is like "being frightened by a letter from Wang Yan and not daring to fight, and becoming a deserter".

Because the lords of Xingqing Mansion are a bunch of idiots, they will not understand Zhuo Luolan's tactics of preparing to go home while the main force of the Western Xia Army is still retained.

In addition, this will not prevent Manba from slaughtering the city in Xining Prefecture, although it is Manba's behavior, but it will also be labeled by the world as "done by the Xixia people". In this regard, Wang Yan has already explained in his letter: once it happens, there is no possibility of turning around, and unless the Song army is dead, the Western Xia army will not want to return to its homeland.

Dilemma!

At this point, Zhuo Luolan simulated in his brain: If he pulls the troops to Xining Prefecture to stop Manba, he may fall for Wang Yan's tricks again, and if he waits for reinforcements to block the front line of Ancient Bone Dragon City, even I can't easily take the troops home, then Xing will evolve into his letter "I give you a chance, we will fight a fair battle in this area".

Fight the eggs!

Zhuo Luolan is not afraid of Wang Yan, but the beginning of this war is crooked, and it is impossible to win now. As a sober commander, Zhuo Luolan didn't want to fight a war that was destined to be unwinnable! Because this is not to defend the country, but to act as a real aggression.

Yes, to stop the manba, the army must be brought over as well. Just sending a few people can't be stopped, because he's a great general.

"Lan Shuai, what should our army do at the moment, please show it as soon as possible?" Several generals around him asked one after another.

Zhuo Luolan saw the sweat on his forehead and thought about it again: "Hurry up and march north for seventy miles, and wait and see what happens." ”

A general was stunned and said, "Wang Yan is now in the south of our army, Lan Shuai, are you sure you are going north instead of south?" ”

Zhuo Luolan said: "Sure, it's useless to chase Wang Yanbu now." After marching 70 miles to the north, our army still had the initiative. If you can wait for the authorization of the imperial court within two days, it is to remove the command of Manba, reorganize the troops, and then try your best to fight a war that cannot be won. If I can't wait for the authorization of the imperial court, then I assert that this battle will be lost in the winter, and I can't wait for next year. At that time, our army could take the lead and return home to the front line of the Ancient Bone Dragon City as soon as possible. ”

Everyone stopped talking, knowing that Zhuo Luolan would even be beheaded in this way, but he was protecting everyone.

A small guard soldier tried to ask: "What to do with these two envoys of the Song army?" ”

Khan, Zhuo Luolan realized that the two soldiers who came to deliver the letter had been tied up, and they had forgotten to pay attention before.

So Zhuo Luolan came over, untied the two Song soldiers with his own hands, and said: "Tell Wang Yan on my behalf that Zhuo Luolan thanked him for the ceremony he gave to General Nantong Mi." ”

The two Song soldiers were in a trance, shouldn't they be polite if they had to write a reply in their own handwriting, shouldn't they?

However, after waiting for a while, it still didn't, and that sentence was Zhuo Luolan's response.

"Damn, if you don't get out, you're still waiting to receive the reward, if it weren't for Lan Shuai's kindness, I would have chopped you two." The Western Xia guards began to punch and kick the two Song troops.

Zhuo Luolan pointed at his guards with a horsewhip: "Don't make a mistake, return the horse to them, and give them another day's dry food." ”

The subordinate said depressedly: "But these two turtle sons are riding my Western Xia horses?" Do you really want to give them back? ”

"People fight hard to grab it. Now we should be snatching it back, but it is cowardice, and this is not based on ability but on the situation. That's it, give them back and let them go. ”

After Zhuo Luolan finished speaking, she ignored the people and took care of her top-notch pure black BMW.

The two Song soldiers who delivered the letter rode away......

"With a word from the Great Demon King, the Zhuo Luolan Legion was so frightened that it retreated seventy miles north from the Southern Sect region!"

"Xixia may become the biggest loser!"

All kinds of stall literature inevitably spread in the Hehuang area.

Wang Yan only smiled bitterly at this, because Wang Yan's brain was not bad and he was still sober. Zhuo Luolan's retreat of seventy miles north from the Nanzong region did not mean that she was afraid of Wang Yan, but that she had a new understanding after assessing the situation, and she felt that she could not win, so she wanted to run.

She can't be called a loser, but a girl. She wanted to bring her clan brothers home, so once there was a change in the next step, she didn't have to think about it, she took the lead, Wang Yan couldn't stop her, and she only needed a short time from the front line of the Ancient Bone Dragon City to enter the territory of Western Xia.

"However, if this is the case, Xining Prefecture will really be washed in blood, and that girl will kill herself politically." At this point, Wang Yan couldn't help but be a little worried about her.

From the public heart, it is definitely the misfortune of the Great Song Dynasty that there is a commander in Western Xia, if you can't accept the training, you must press this girl here to rub it first and then kill it. But in his private feelings, Wang Yan is a little worthless for this commander he has never met.

If she really ran away, it would be very unfavorable for Wang Yan to pretend to be forced.

Originally, she was supposed to go to Xining Prefecture to stop the murder of people in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner. For example, if Wang Yan was her, she would rush to Xining Prefecture to "secretly arrest Manba" and seize command.

Since then, she has lost the opportunity to break through and go home, and Da Yan plans to slowly force her into a corner, and then subdue her with a "Seven Captures and Seven Vertical Zhuo Luolan", and this force will pretend to be cool. Although it is very difficult.

Pity...... Now she decisively wants to escape, but she doesn't give Wang Yan a chance to pretend?

There is also a good side, Zhuo Luolan retreated seventy miles north from the Nanzong region, which is equivalent to letting go of the mouth of the Hetao, and now after the great victory of the two battles of Min and Tonghuang, the entire Hehuang is bloody, and there are more and more people and the remaining guerrillas in the northern area, taking advantage of the opportunity of Zhuo Luolan's northward retreat to come to Zongcheng to join the army.

And there is news that Na Gang and Dong Yu also led four guerrillas and are about to arrive in Zongcheng......
