"Wu Gao is running away!" Zhu Gaoxu suddenly said.

At this time, night had completely fallen, and the fire guns in the west were still flickering, and the sound of firearms and the noise of people resounded in the night sky. The war is not over.

However, the Han army continued to advance and had already crossed the central part of this plain. There was a large village in the middle, but all that remained was the charred embers of the houses; The charcoal-fired wood faintly reveals dark red charcoal cracks in the dark night, like the terrible color of magma.

The plains stretch to the banks of the Li River, where it is dark; On the other side of the river in the distance, there was no light in sight. Originally, this place was located on the flat and fertile soil by the river, which should be the most densely populated place, but the battle started here, and the people fled all who could, and they did not dare to turn on the lights at night.

There was no sign of enemy activity in the great darkness to the north; This situation shows that the enemy army has almost completely withdrawn from this plain "arena" and has retreated to the southwest corner.

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened in the firelight, looking at the red sky in the east and the shadows of the black mountain peaks. He reached out and rubbed his temples, as if that would hold down his head in sharp pain.

At this point, he couldn't see the terrain at all, and he could only try to recall what he had learned about the space.

But don't think about it, the southwest corner of the plain in front of you, the terrain is very simple. Through a valley between the peaks of the mountain, there is a narrow corridor along the banks of the Li River, leading to the mouth of Anle Water.

Zhu Gaoxu quickly came to a judgment: he could not pursue directly from here.

Because the terrain is too narrow, it is not conducive to the deployment of large armies. The enemy only needs a small number of guards to take advantage of the narrow passage in the valley to stop the pursuers!

He pointed ahead and immediately ordered: "Send someone back to give the order, let all those chaotic men and horses who have returned from the front come over; Tell everyone to fight with open fire, beat the drum and make a big noise! ”

"Order!"

Zhu Gaoxu said again: "In the past, the general in front of him was ordered to prepare to shoot with rockets!" ”

In this night sky, if the rockets that glitter with fire tilt down, they must be as spectacular as meteors...... Zhu Gaoxu didn't plan to pursue from here, but instead wanted to make a bigger battle!

"Drive!" He grabbed his horse's belly and rushed in the direction of a shining torch behind him. Arrayed over there were the Quanyong troops of the Han Wangjun who had not yet gone into battle, and they maintained a neat queue and unconsumed physical strength.

The two sides fought for a whole day, and although the Han army gradually gained the upper hand, the troops on both sides were seriously depleted.

(Due to the insufficient lethality of weapons at this time, the contact surface of plane combat is also limited, and the proportion of people who actually die is not high; However, those armies that are in disarray, have not been replenished with ammunition and arrows, and are exhausted by fighting hard have greatly weakened their combat effectiveness, and it is difficult to restore their combat effectiveness in a short period of time, which is equivalent to the number of troops that have been consumed. ）

Zhu Gaoxu's remaining unused Quan Yong team was precious at the end of the battle. At this point, he has to use it on the blade!

The war horse trotted in the firelight, and the cool night breeze blew in his face. He tried to forget about his physical pain, his mind trying to stay clear in the cool breeze. Fighters on the battlefield are fleeting, and they must have clear judgment and clear strategic thinking......

Zhu Gaoxu kept deepening his thoughts in his mind.

Wu Gaojun has not completely lost its combat effectiveness! Even if the two sides continue to fight at this time, the Han army may not be able to take advantage; It will take time to completely crush the enemy army.

But Zhu Gaoxu can't just be satisfied with the victory itself! If Wu Gao's men and horses could not be eliminated, the victory in this battle would be of little significance, because it would not be possible to prepare for a greater advantage in the next decisive battle; Everything should be about cutting off the enemy's forces!

This battle will not end with Wu Gao's admission of defeat.

Wu Gao gave up the battle too early, and large-scale night battles were prone to chaos, so it was unlikely that the Han army would completely defeat the enemy army tonight. But if Wu Gao wants to retreat, he will definitely leave the guard; That guard will be Zhu Gaoxu's key target tonight!

"Commander Wei envoy above the general!" Zhu Gaoxu looked ahead, looked at the starry fire in front of him, and shouted in a hoarse voice.

After a while, several generals rode over. The soldiers around Zhu Gaoxu ran farther away, shouting to convey military orders. More generals heard the news and gathered together.

In the firelight, the faces of the generals were all facing Zhu Gaoxu, and they all hugged their fists and said, "Lord Wang!" The prince ......"

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, thought for a while, and then said directly: "Tonight, what you have to do is to cut off the enemy's rearguard on the east bank of Anle Water!" ”

He paused for a moment and continued: "If the main force of Wu Gaojun wants to run, it will definitely cross west from the pontoon bridge on the Anle Water. All you have to do is make a roundabout attack to the shore of the Anle Water, near the enemy's pontoon bridge; In order to stop our pursuit, the enemy will most likely burn the pontoon bridge...... At this time, the enemy rearguard, who was attracted to the bank of the Li River and was blocking the northern road of our army, had no way to retreat. Do you understand? ”

The crowd responded.

Zhu Gaoxu endured the pain in his throat and recounted his strategy again. Then he began to make specific deployments.

Although night has fallen, and the sky is dark, no night is without a little light. So when Zhu Gaoxu turned around and walked away, he could see the black shadows of the two peaks over there.

"You set out in batches, keeping the order in order. See two peaks over there? Pass through the valley in the middle! Zhu Gaoxu no longer said that it was easy to get lost at night, and it was not easy to discern the direction, so it was necessary to arrange the route as simple as possible.

"When you pass through this nearby mountain, there is a valley that stretches left and right in front of you. Don't turn at this time, but continue south, passing through the second mountain range between the peaks. ”

Zhu Gaoxu tried to speak slowly and clearly, "At this time, turn right, and then go straight until you reach the river; Once you reach the river, turn right again, and then attack along the river until you see the enemy's pontoon bridges! ”

After hearing this, the generals all looked at Zhu Gaoxu with adoring eyes. Even at night, when he can't see the terrain clearly, Zhu Gaoxu can still tell the road very clearly!

Of course he knows that because the capital is not much, every battle here is a matter of life and death! Zhu Gaoxu basically understood the terrain around the battlefield and imprinted it in his mind.

But what Zhu Gaoxu wanted was not the admiring eyes of the generals. He began to ask one by one, asking them to repeat the route in turn; If there is a slight mistake, he repeats it.

Zhu Gaoxu also advised: "This king will lead his own soldiers to the front, but it is difficult to distinguish the structure of each department at night, and there may be problems with the transmission of military orders." Don't be in a hurry, advance slowly according to the good tactics, and keep your men and horses in order. Wu Gao didn't dare to withdraw the defenders so quickly, we have enough chances! ”

"The last general will wait for the order!"
