Chapter 51: The Withdrawal of the Troops

Chapter 51: The Withdrawal of the Troops

As Zhang Xuan expected.

Duoduo is still confused about the changes on the mountain.

When asked yesterday, Kong Youde was still adamant, solid as gold. It was only then that Dodor made plans for today's battle. It's just that now, Duoduo's advantage on the battlefield is not enough to offset the Qing army's loss of Da Xian Mountain.

The biggest loss in the loss of Da Xian was nothing else, but the loss of a heavy artillery unit to the Xia army.

Xiangyang City is in front, and there is no heavy artillery to attack the city, so don't even think about it. Especially when the number of artillery in the Xia army was also quite large. At this time, is there a chance to continue to fight under Xiangyang City?

Not to mention, Duoduo could see that the news of the fall of Da Xian Mountain had reached the hands of his opponent, and the soldiers of Xia were almost visibly rising.

Of course, Duoduo knew that the soldiers who had skyrocketed at this time were just a false fire. But Duoduo also knew that whether it was a false fire or a real fire, it was a fact that he could hold on for a while. If you continue to fight, whether you will win or not, Duoduo does not know, but the price you pay will be more.

In the end, Dodor decided to withdraw his troops.

The two tribes of Duoduo and Azig brought almost two-thirds of the Manchu headquarters over. Although there are quite a few soldiers of the Eight Banners who have surrendered to the north and have already defended Beijing, they can't believe it after all, and Azig has already lost a lot of Eight Banners in his hands.

You really can't lose too much.

"Withdraw." Duoduo gave the order, and for a moment he had a retreat in his heart.

Xiangyang, he didn't want to fight anymore. Within a few days, the repeated battles with the Xia army for Daxian Mountain, or the battle between Azig and the Xia army on Dahongshan, all illustrate a problem, the Xia army may be weaker than the Qing army in terms of combat power, but it is by no means easy to match.

Moreover, the Qing army has been fighting for more than a year, and it is already a tired army. The combat effectiveness of the Qing army has actually declined somewhat compared with when it first entered the customs.

When withdrawing the army, it was still relatively easy for Duoduo's headquarters to withdraw the army, and more Duoduo's headquarters were men, because the Eight Banners soldiers joined, they had an advantage on the battlefield, and they almost came and left when they wanted, and Yang Chengzu couldn't stop it. I can't stop it.

I can only watch them withdraw.

But it's not easy for the Turai side.

The two sides were already entangled, and it was not possible to retreat if they wanted to, and after receiving the order, Turai could only gather the men and horses of each department little by little, move the battlefield to the north, to the flat ground, and then withdraw under the escort of other units of the Qing army.

The difficulties involved in this can be imagined.

In order to withdraw, more soldiers, Turai inevitably broke in the back, and walked at the rear with his own soldiers. It's just that he didn't know that he was targeted by Ma Bao.

Ma Bao was very worried about the absence of the siege of Da Xian Mountain.

Although Zhang Xuan relaxed his standards for him, after all, his detour was the farthest, and it was too late to catch up on time. But it didn't work out, it just didn't work out, Ma Bao was worried about his attitude in Zhang Xuan's heart on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was a pity that he had a good end and a great credit, so he ran away from him.

Naturally, he desperately wanted to make some contributions. so that they may atone for their sins.

Turai is so conspicuous on the battlefield that Ma Bao can't even see it. He did not rush to make a move, but hid himself, secretly drew his bow to the full, and aimed his long arrow at Turai, but because Turai had been rushing and killing, he could not aim accurately.

Mabao suddenly saw that Turai seemed to be saying something loudly. At that time, his upper body did not move. Ma Bao's eyes lit up, and he said secretly: "Good opportunity." ”

As soon as the hand was released, the long arrow came out.

Ma Bao was born in the nine sides and has practiced the way of arching horses since childhood. I don't dare to say that I hit every shot, but I still have the right head, especially since he has been preparing for such a long time, how can it be unreasonable. This arrow is to run for the life of Tulai.

Turai has been on the battlefield for many years, and his senses are extremely sharp. Although he did not see Mabao shoot an arrow, nor did he hear the sound of the bowstring, but at the same time as Mabao shot the long arrow, Turai tilted his head meaningfully, and this tilt of his head immediately saved Turai's life.

Because of Turai's head up, Zhang Xuan did not shoot Turai's heart. But he still shot Turai's torso, Turai's whole person was overturned to the ground, and he was immediately snatched out by Turai's coat and sent to the back, Turai's behavior cannot be said to be wrong, after all, the life and death of the coat and the life and death of the master are linked. If they let Turai die here, when they return, I am afraid that none of them will survive.

In order to save their lives, they naturally have to desperately protect their masters.

But such a move of theirs immediately caused a chain reaction, and the sergeants began to rout. Had it not been for the fact that Doddor had sent another army to meet them, perhaps the Turai army would have collapsed.

It's just that Tulai's injuries may not last long.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan was stationed on the top of Da Xian Mountain, and had decided to garrison Da Xian Mountain, arranged all kinds of people, and from now on, he would no longer go out of the city to seek war, but only defend and not attack.

Zhang Xuan knew that after this series of battles, Xia Jun was not exhausted, but it was also too consumed, and it was time to rest for a while. Anyway, now that the Qing army has lost Kong Youde's department, I'm afraid that for a while, it won't raise so many cannons.

This gave Xia Jun a chance to breathe.

Immediately, Zhang Xuan took another turn on the top of Da Xian Mountain.

Zhang Xuan decided to shoot the fort on top of Da Hyeon. Ready to build on the mountain. If the ancient building is the same, divided into three layers, distributing firepower layer by layer, and then doing a good job of supporting facilities, Zhang Xuan is ready to garrison 10,000 people on the mountain in the future. In the future, Da Hyeon Mountain and Yangyang will support each other.

Zhang Xuan then saw another line of words, carved out on the stone wall.

"On the 20th day of April 20th in the 11th year of the Great Song Dynasty, Li Zengbo was sent to the Son of Heaven to transfer the capital to the Gundam Shogunate Wang Deng, and the troops were restored to the two cities of Xiangfan. On the first day of the first month of the third year of the Yue Dynasty, it is inscribed in Da Xian, and its inscription says: Zhuang Zai Xian, the ridge is north and south. Gully, Jiling Valley. Dry energy yang, peel Si Fu. For tens of millions of years, Pingwu country. ”

Zhang Xuan silently calculated, and said secretly: "Chunyou is the year name of Song Lizong, and I can't remember the battle that this envoy Li Zhizhi said for a while, so I will go back and check." It's just that, thousands of years later, today's war is estimated to be nothing more than a cloud of the past in the eyes of future generations. ”

Zhang Xuan was unwilling to do so. After thinking about it, he said to Zheng Lian: "Collect the list of the dead of each department, remember to remind me, after the Qing army retreats, let the Yanggong Temple move the place, where to build a temple for General Bai, and all the soldiers who died in battle will be sacrificed." ”

"Yes." Zheng Lian hesitated for a moment and said.

It seems that he feels that the Yanggong Temple is here with a good one. This doesn't seem like a good idea.

However, Zhang Xuan doesn't seem to care, no matter how deep the favor of this sheep prince is in Xiangyang, after so many years, it has also faded, and in the future, I am afraid that before the unification of the north and the south, it will be a military important place, and the sheep temple is here, it is inevitable that it will be destroyed in the war, and it is not bad to move a place.

After Zhang Xuan arranged this, he learned about the situation of some departments and found that the situation was fine. At least the situation was much better than Zhang Xuan's initial estimate, and as soon as his spirit was relieved, he suddenly felt tiredness welling up in his heart, and just told Zheng Lian what to call himself, so he found a corner, lay down in his clothes, and covered the cloak behind him.

But after a while, he snored loudly.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan is no longer the appearance of the original son of Xun Shijia, he has not taken care of his image for several days, above Zhang Xuan's chin, a beard stretches out, it is not very long, but the roots are like iron, but Zhang Xuan does not seem to have a beard. It's just a little stubble at the corners of the mouth.

And the eyes are a little puffy when they stay up all night, and the eye bags are extremely conspicuous.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan retreated from the feeling of youth, but let people see that he was old, and he looked like he was thirty years old, or forty years old. It's full of manliness. and Zhang Xuan under Huangling City back then, almost like two people.

The snoring sounded like thunder, far away outside the house. Zhang Xuan never snores when he sleeps, but today he is tired. You need a good night's sleep to recover.

Just when Zhang Xuan was sleeping soundly, Duoduo was tasting the taste of sleepless nights at the moment.

Kong Youde is an old man in Liaodong, Kong Youde's death shocked Duoduo very much, it can be said that Kong Youde is the highest-ranking general who has died since the Qing army entered the customs. Duoduo had to reassess the strength of the Xia army. And Kong Youde's death was only a shock to Duoduo, and Thurai's injury was a little sad for Duoduo.
