A group of defeated soldiers, walking on the way to escape with their heads down, they looked exhausted.

On a broken carriage, there were two people upside down, one was Zhen Badao with frowning eyebrows, and the other was Ma Bufang who was unconscious.

Although it is a defeated army, the leader here is Wang Caotian, the general of the three armies of Shence.

A veteran who is over the age of six, his beard and hair are all white, and his wide skeleton supports the last demeanor of a general.

However, he was already too tired. Riding on the jujube red horse, his face was haggard, and he couldn't hold the silver-handled war knife in his hand.

To say that this Wang Caotian was also brave and invincible when he was young, and he had cooperated with Qi Dongyang many times and made great achievements.

Now that it was drizzling at dusk and the city was broken, a general in the team who had witnessed the defeat of Qi Dongyang suddenly burst into tears.

"Xiao Zhen, why are you crying?"

Zhen's domineering son is also in the team, which is the so-called father-son soldier who goes into battle.

Zhen Xiuwei glanced up at Wang Caotian and said, "Uncle Shi, my nephew just feels wronged. ”

Wang Caotian knew what Zhen Xiuwei wanted to say, but he still pretended to be confused and said: "There is a sentence that has been said by everyone, but every time it is defeated, it will be taken out by everyone." ”

Zhen Xiuwei nodded.

Wang Caotian continued: "The reason why it has been taken out and talked about countless times is because it is a criterion in the military. ”

Zhen Xiuwei didn't want to nod anymore, but he still nodded.

The authority of the Shence Army was attacked, Hengzhou Wang Caotian, Zhen Badao, and Fang Tianhua were attacked by the enemy, and the Northern Expeditionary Army did not send a support force.

Of course, due to the long distance and the fact that there is Yan Zhan Shiya, the first fierce general of the enemy army, is in between, it can barely be understood.

But how was the Shi Jinchong Division of the Third Division of the Three Armies of Shence attacked by a sneak attack?

Jizhou is far from Zhaozhou, and there is a Xingzhou in the middle, and at this time, the third division of the Xuanjia Army, the temporary fourth recruit division, and the fifth recruit division of the Flying Tiger Army are all in Xingzhou, what are you eating?

Just like that, let Yan Zhan Shiya swagger over, and walk away arrogantly?

For this reason, Zhen Xiuwei couldn't figure it out.

But Shibo Wang Caotian didn't mention it, so he pressed it in his heart and stopped mentioning it.

——

"Why did the enemy suddenly fight like this?"

Huo Zizhen, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, looked at the strategic map and suddenly felt puzzled, he couldn't understand why the enemy general Yan Zhan Shiya suddenly gave up Jizhou and worked hard to attack Zhaozhou.

Shi Jinchong was repairing the team, and he didn't have any combat effectiveness at all, why did he have to fight Shi Jinchong?

Looking at his movements, he was even more like being angry, and retaliated against Shi Jinchong.

Studied but cannot comprehend.

Could it be that when Shi Jinchong attacked Weizhou, he inadvertently killed any relatives of Yan Zhan Shiya?

Huo Zizhen shook his head, he thought that Yan Zhan Shiya, as the first fierce general of the enemy army, could not make such a confused decision. Famous generals are ruthless, and it is impossible for them to risk attacking behind enemy lines for personal reasons.

After staring at the sand table for a long time, listening to the generals beside him say their thoughts, Huo Zizhen felt that something was wrong, but at this time he couldn't understand why the enemy was fighting like this.

"Now that Yan Zhan Shiya has withdrawn and retreated to Shenzhou, then we have nothing to hesitate about, Zhang Yunlong, the first division of the Xuanjia Army, is garrisoning in Zhouzhou; Cao Sheng of the second division and Sun Xiong of the third division garrisoned Xingzhou;

Xiao Han's army of the tiger army was stationed in Jizhou, accompanied by Zhang Hanshan, and at the same time, the fourth recruit division of the tiger was also transferred to Jizhou, which was directly under the jurisdiction of Xiao Han, so that he was always ready for a decisive battle with Yan Zhan Shiya;

In addition, he told Zhang Zhikui to lead Xiao Feibu of the Third Division of Huben, Cen Shen of the Fourth Division of Feihu, Ju Fan of the Fourth Division of Huben, and Tang Qi of the Fourth Division of Shence to continue to contain the land of Cangzhou, not to seek a complete victory, as long as it was delayed. ”

A small pennant was planted at the boundary of Shenzhou, and Huo Zizhen swore solemnly: "In mid-July, the decisive battle in Shenzhou will be won." ”

——

Almost at the same time as the defeat of Shence on all fronts, Xiao Han's army and Zhang Hanshan's army broke into Jizhou and successfully attacked Jizhou.

The lieutenant general of the fourth division of Huben was killed in battle, and Xiao Han called the general of the third army of Huben to come to Jizhou, command the temporary fourth division, and stayed in Jizhou with them.

It is worth mentioning that Ximen Qingkong and the second son, Ximen Lang, were born to the same mother.

On the side of the Xuanjia Army.

After the Xuanjia army was replenished, they set out from Xiangzhou to support Shi Jinchong, but by the time they felt that the enemy had already retreated.

Zhang Yunlong, the main general of Xuanjia, led the first division to reap the profits.

The 2nd and 3rd Xuanjia Divisions continued to move north and occupy Xingzhou, and the Xuanjia Temporary Fourth Recruit Division was divided and filled into the main division.

Huo Zizhen personally commanded the First Division of the Flying Tiger, and the Fifth Recruit Division of the Temporary Flying Tiger, stationed in Beizhou.

The 2nd, 6th, 7th, and 8th Divisions of the Flying Tiger are all being repaired and are also remaining in Beizhou.

On the whole, this time the operation of the Nanjia people was a failure, because the Liang army as a whole moved north to the land of the two states.

But at this time, Huo Zizhen also found that the Shence Army was almost defeated, and only the Fourth Recruit Division Tang Qi was left crumbling for the time being, like a small candle about to be extinguished.

At this time, Huo Zizhen suddenly realized, and suddenly laughed and said: "I seem to understand the enemy's intentions, their move is really yin." ”

Huo Zizhen slapped the table and said: "Inform Zhang Zhikui to protect the temporary fourth recruit division of Shence, and at the same time tell Tang Qi that at her request, the word recruit will be removed from the number, and she will also tell her that she must guard against arrogance and rashness and continue to work hard, and strive to remove the temporary two words after the war." ”

When the news reached Tang Qi's barracks, the female general was reading a book.

Pucha Sujia didn't come to harass Liang Jun, and Tang Qi was still a little bored at this time.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly received an order from the commander, saying that she should withdraw thirty miles to the village, and removed the word "recruit" in the number.

Tang Qi was happy but also a little puzzled, and asked the scout: "Have the other recruit divisions also removed the word 'recruit'?" ”

"General Hui, no."

"Then why did you change our number?"

The scout smiled and said, "I don't know, if you want to ask, you have to ask Huo Shuai." ”

Tang Qi smiled: "Why hide it, just say as much as you know." ”

The scout was embarrassed and said, "The little one knows very little, and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense." ”

"Don't worry, even if you say something wrong, I won't pursue it in the future."

At this time, the scout reluctantly said: "The marshal said that the fourth division of Shence was able to win Dizhou on its own, and it itself won the merit of a state, and among many recruit divisions, it was the best. Therefore, the word 'recruit' is omitted and encouraged. ”

Unable to ask the key, Tang Qi gave up, waved his hand, and ordered Ni Zan to lead the scout to eat some meat outside.

To be able to eat meat in such a difficult situation is already a good reward, and it is more pleasant than throwing him a silver tael.

If you get silver on the battlefield, you may have a life to take a life, but this feast is real.
