408, New Battles (20)
The official army camp suddenly sounded a sound of Jin retreating, and the Sanzhou state soldiers who suffered heavy casualties under the Jinsha Pass were suddenly overjoyed, and immediately began to desperately turn around and run back, leaving the wounded and dead all over the ground and not even caring about it.
Zheng Fei and the others looked at the official and military camp, only to see that it was already in chaos, and it seemed that they were leaving.
Zheng Fei was overjoyed, and had already guessed that Gao Lian must have received the news of Yuncheng County's request for help, and he was going to rush back to rescue grain and grass!
At this time, Zhu Gui rushed to report that he had just received a report from Deng Yuanjue's flying pigeon that Yuncheng County had been taken, and that Shi Bin, the head of the county, Zhu Tong and several Yabing state soldiers had been captured alive, and all the grain and grass of the official army had been seized!
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard it, counting the interval between the two transmissions, it was not even two hours, Deng Yuanjue and Lin Chong were really fast!
Wu Song and the others immediately pointed to the direction of the retreat of the official army and asked Zheng Fei if he wanted to chase him?
Zheng Fei shook his head and said that our forces are still at a disadvantage compared to them, and if we abandon the fortress and chase them out, we are afraid that it will attract their counterattack, although we are not afraid of fighting with them, but we should also avoid our own casualties. Our goal is to exchange the other party's large casualties at a small price, and the decisive battle will definitely happen, but not now!
However, Zheng Fei was unwilling to let the official army leave so easily, and he immediately called Pang Wanchun to ask him how the casualties of the ** battalion were? Do you still dare to pursue the enemy with a battalion?
Pang Wanchun patted his chest and said that the ** battalion is very good, and it can attack at any time!
Zheng Fei immediately ordered Pang Wanchun to assemble the ** battalion, all on horseback, each with two soul-breaking crossbows and enough arrows to pursue the officers and soldiers, but not to fight them head-on, but to harass them, sneak attack them, and possibly kill their living force with bows and arrows!
Pang Wanchun immediately led the order to go down the city tower, and after a while, he saw that the gate of Jinsha Beach was wide open, and Pang Wanchun led the ** battalion to rush out with more than two horses, and chased straight in the direction of the retreat of the officers and soldiers.
Zheng Fei also ordered Zhu Gui to send an order to Deng Yuanjue, asking Deng Yuanjue to burn all the grain and grass of the official army as planned and immediately withdraw from Yuncheng County, ambush the official army on the way to retreat by surprise, and at the same time still ordered Deng Yuanjue not to go head-to-head with the official army, to fully wield the flexibility of the cavalry, and may only use bows and arrows to kill and wound the officers and soldiers!
Next, Zheng Fei first ordered three uninjured soldiers to continue to guard the golden beach, and ordered An Daoquan to make every effort to treat the injured soldiers, and at the same time sent a team of people out of the city to check whether there were survivors among the officers and soldiers in the city.
After that, Zheng Fei led more than three people to rush to the side of the mountain to reinforce Yifu Pass.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Pang Wanchun thoroughly implemented Zheng Fei's arrangement, and led the ** battalion to quickly catch up with the retreating officers and soldiers. Pang Wanchun didn't say a word and immediately ordered the whole battalion to shoot at the official army with a soul-breaking crossbow, and the five arrows formed a dense rain of arrows, which immediately caused more casualties to the Qizhou army that dragged behind, and the Qizhou army was in a big mess and hurriedly counterattacked, but their bows couldn't even shoot the edge of the ** battalion, the Qizhou army just wanted to shoot arrows after getting close to the ** battalion, but the ** battalion ran away, where can the two legs of the people run over the four legs of the war horse? The Qizhou army saw that they couldn't catch up with the ** battalion and had to turn back and retreat, but when they just started to walk not far, the ** battalion caught up again, and it was also a round of soul-breaking crossbow service, which caused casualties to the Qizhou army.
This kind of almost scoundrel style of play really made the Qizhou army angry and afraid, although they wanted to break the ** battalion into pieces, but they didn't dare to really stay and fight to the death with the ** battalion.
Next, after several rounds of harassment by the ** battalion, in the face of tragic casualties, the main general of the Qizhou army finally woke up and said secretly, dare to love this small group of Liangshan cavalry thieves and thieves didn't want to fight with the official army at all, they just hit whoever they caught and fell behind! Well! There is only one way to crack the disgusting and dead man's style of play of these abominable thieves, and that is...... Run! Desperate to speed up! When he runs to the front and squeezes the Yunzhou army in front of him into the last one, then he will be able to get out of the sea of suffering.
The commander of the Qizhou army immediately ordered the whole army to throw away everything that could be thrown, and then began to run away desperately!
Sure enough, the Qizhou army ran and ran desperately, and soon caught up with the Yunzhou army in front, and then didn't even say hello, and continued to rush forward after crossing the Yunzhou army, and was no longer attacked by sneak attacks.
At first, the Yunzhou Army wondered what was wrong with the Qizhou Army, why did they all run like mad dogs? It's just that soon, the ** battalion that completed the reloading of the Broken Soul Crossbow and caught up gave the Yunzhou army an answer, and after a salvo, five arrows caused casualties to the Yunzhou army.
The Yunzhou Army is the only one of the coalition forces in several states so far that has not fought with the Tiandao Army, and has never had casualties in the state army, of course, it has not experienced the power of the Tiandao Army, and at this moment it was suddenly attacked by the ** battalion, and the Yunzhou army commander suddenly understood the reason why the Qizhou army had just rushed past him, and it was really shameless to scold the Qizhou army at the moment, and at the same time felt that the Qizhou army was really a nest, and he was afraid of such a thief who was no more than two horses, and the Yunzhou army commander immediately ordered the whole army to stop retreating, and turned around and launched a counterattack on the ** battalion,
Outcome......
After half a pillar of incense, the Yunzhou army also became like a mad dog, desperately chasing the Xuzhou army ...... in front.
Pang Wanchun led the ** battalion to constantly harass the officers and troops with guerrilla warfare tactics, causing many casualties to the officers and troops, but also played a role in fueling the speed of the retreat of the officers and troops, and the speed of the retreat of the officers and troops was significantly accelerated, but this also caused an unexpected situation, which cut off the connection between the coalition forces and the Huyanzhuo Department.
It turned out that when Gao Lian ordered the withdrawal of the army back to Yuncheng County, he still hoped that there would be a miracle in the offensive of Huyanzhuo's way, so he arranged for Liu Ting to lead a team of men and horses to rush to the path to find Huyanzhuo's department, to see if they had broken through the level of the thieves, if they were broken, there were three arrows on the mountain as a signal, and the army would not retreat as soon as they saw the signal, and immediately attacked Liangshan along the path, anyway, as long as they attacked the thieves' lair and destroyed the thieves, it was equivalent to completing the task of suppressing the bandits, and the grain and grass were lost. In the future, when reporting war exploits, it was said that it was to lure the enemy with grain and grass.
If Huyanzhuo's troops did not break through Liangshan, then they were ordered to stop the attack, immediately go down the mountain to reinforce Yuncheng County, and shoot two arrows at the same time as a signal, Gao Lian will officially withdraw as soon as he sees the signal,
For this reason, Gao Lian also slowed down the speed of action of the special army.
Who would have thought that after the mixing of the ** battalion, the marching speed of the official army was much faster, and when Gao Lian reacted, the army was already almost at the bottom of the mountain, and it was far away from the place where Liu Ting said that the arrow signal from Yifuguan could be heard.
Gao Lian saw that he had arrived here, and if the army turned back, if Hu Yanzhuo's troops did not break through Liangshan, wouldn't it delay the opportunity to reinforce Yuncheng County? Moreover, although Gao Lian was lucky with Huyan Zhuobu, he actually didn't have much confidence. So Gao Lian immediately thought that this was the will of heaven, and God wanted him to hurry back to reinforce Yuncheng County, and he immediately ordered the army to officially speed up and rush towards the road from which he came.
It was also Liang Shanbo's luck that was so good, Gao Lian sent Liu Ting to find Hu Yanzhuo, the original intention was to let Liu Ting be a guide to save time, but he didn't expect that after Liu Ting led more than a dozen people to appear on the path, he was suddenly surrounded by a platoon of twenty-seven soldiers of the Tiandao Army who had just been waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack them when Hu Yanzhuo's troops went up the mountain. Isn't this Liu Ting's kid? How is he with the officers and soldiers? Dare to love this kid who sold us again!
No way! For such a shameless traitor, he must not be spared, but he must not be killed easily, so that he can be captured alive and handed over to the big boss to disembowel! Everyone in the Heavenly Dao Army quickly made up their minds, and immediately took a shortcut to the front of Liu Ting and the others, and one of them aimed at an officer and soldier with a bow and arrow.
And Liu Ting saw that the officers and soldiers had retreated again, and he was panicking after being disappointed, and suddenly heard a sound of breaking air around him, and then turned around to look, only to see that the officers and soldiers next to him actually fell to the ground with an arrow, Liu Ting was shocked and just wanted to run, and only heard a shout of killing, and instantly rushed out from all around Several soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Army, everyone rushed up and pressed Liu Ting to the ground and tied him tightly.
In this way, if Gao Lian only sent a dozen officers and soldiers to inform Hu Yanzhuo, although these dozen officers and soldiers would be killed by everyone in the Heavenly Dao Army, they would be killed, and the soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Army would not want to be arrested at all. But Liu Ting appeared, and everyone in the Heavenly Dao Army accidentally captured Liu Ting.
And when Liu Ting saw that he had been arrested, his heart was like ashes, and he immediately told everything he knew in a vain attempt to make meritorious service in exchange for his life.
When everyone in the Heavenly Dao Army heard this, they immediately understood that this was a very valuable piece of information, and immediately used the only carrier pigeon assigned to them to transmit this information to the mountain.
This piece of information was also quickly sent to Zheng Fei, who had already come to Yifu Pass, at this time, Hu Yanzhuo's Department was still attacking Yifu Pass, even if there were heavy casualties, but with the arrival of Zheng Fei and the three people, the defenders of Yifu Pass instantly reached 1,000 people, which was already the same as the number of officers and soldiers besieging the city, and Yifu Pass was already worry-free.
Zheng Fei was also waiting for Hu Yanzhuo to withdraw, but as soon as this news came, Zheng Fei was overjoyed when he saw it, and secretly said that God really helped me, in this way, Hu Yanzhuo's department was equivalent to losing contact with Gao Lian, and naturally he didn't know the news that Gao Lian and others had withdrawn!
Zheng Fei's heart suddenly moved when he thought of this, and a bold plan suddenly rose in his heart! He immediately ordered someone to send an order to Zhu Gui to see if he had already issued the order to Deng Yuanjue just now, if not, don't do it, if so, immediately send another order, ordering Deng Yuanjue to stop burning grain and grass and withdraw the army, and the whole regiment changed its plan to defend Yuncheng County!
