Chapter 839: Shifting the Front
();
The main battalion of the Wind Army.
A falcon hovered overhead, and a moment later, fell into the barracks.
After a short time, Tang Man hurriedly walked into the big tent of the Chinese army, and rushed to Lu Chen with a fist and saluted: "King, General Qin Mu reports on the battle." ”
"Oh?" When Lu Chen heard this, his spirit was shocked, and he couldn't help but stand up: "Take it to me." ”
Waiting for Tang Man to hand over the battle report, Lu Chen took it and took a closer look.
At this time, all the generals in the tent also looked at Lu Chen without blinking.
After reading it, he couldn't help but smile heartily and said, "Qin Muqi's attack on Dingyuan has been completed!" ”
When everyone heard this, they were all overjoyed, but Chen Qun couldn't help but say: "Okay! After Dingyuan was occupied by our army, Yue Jin became a lone army, and trapped in death, next, our army only needs to surround and annihilate it, and you can open the gateway to Qingdi from the direction of Dingyuan. ”
"That's right!" Lu Chen said: "After the success of the surprise attack on Dingyuan, Hanyu Pass is no longer so important, and the main force of our army does not need to stay here. ”
After speaking, he also immediately instructed Tang Man: "Immediately send an order to Su Muzhi to lead the army to join our department, and order Xiao Wang to lead an army of 200,000 to continue to stay in the area of Hanyu Pass, waiting for an opportunity." ”
"No!" Tang Man took the order and left.
On Lu Chen's side, he was ready to gather 600,000 troops and open up the situation from Dingyuan, and after Su Muzhi received the royal order, he immediately withdrew his troops from Hengzhou and began to join Lu Chen.
Subsequently, the 600,000 Feng army began to retreat from the area of Hanyu Pass and marched towards Dingyuan with great fanfare.
With such a movement, it was naturally impossible to hide it from the Qingjun spies, and the news was quickly spread to Yueheng.
Because of the falcon of the military aircraft battalion, Lu Chen knew the news of Dingyuan at this time, but Yue Heng didn't know it, after listening to the spy report, he also frowned, and asked uncertainly: "You mean, the Wind King has led the army to retreat?" ”
"Yes, Yue Shuai, his subordinates are clear about the investigation, King Feng led an army of 600,000, leaving only the Pingzhou army outside Xunyang City, looking at its direction, it should be towards Dingyuan." The spies returned.
......Hearing this, Yue Heng couldn't help but take a breath, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Originally, I thought that the Wind King gathered 800,000 troops at Hanyu Pass to fight to the death here, but after such a long confrontation, Xunyang and Hengzhou were attacked tentatively.
Now, Yue Heng couldn't help but condensed and said: "Is the Wind King going to change his strategy and turn to Dingyuan?" ”
When the generals heard this, they all looked at each other, and the deputy marshal Zhongli said: "It must be so, if it is said that this is a suspicious plan, it is unlikely." ”
"Yes." Yue Heng nodded, and then said to the spy: "You will probe and report again, and pay close attention to the movements of the main force of the Wind Army." ”
"No!" The spies retreated.
After he left, Zhongli also said again: "Yue Shuai, since the Wind King plans to transfer the battle line, then our army should also be ready to support Dingyuan at any time." ”
Yue Heng nodded and said, "Dingyuan has General Yue Jin here, and there are 200,000 troops, even if the Wind King attacks strongly, it will be absolutely impossible to break through in a short period of time." ”
He still knows Yue Jin's ability relatively well, and he also has a certain confidence in him, but in the end, he still said: "But just in case, General Zhong, you still stay at Hanyu Pass, and this marshal will lead 600,000 troops and march towards Dingyuan." ”
"The last general commands!" Zhongli said directly.
Yue Heng made up his mind, wherever Lu Chen's main force was, he would follow him, in fact, there was no problem in doing so, but he never thought that Dingyuan would have lost it a long time ago!
After ordering all the people, before leaving, he also told Zhong Li not to attack rashly, saying that the other party left in the area of Hanyu Pass was Xiao Wang, the left minister of the Wind Country, and it was the Pingzhou army, which should not be underestimated.
Zhongli naturally promised to reassure him.
Subsequently, Yue Heng, like Lu Chen, led the main force of the Qing Army and began to rush to Dingyuan, but the time of his departure was a few days later than Lu Chen, and when he reached the middle of the road, the news of Dingyuan's loss also came.
After listening to the report, Yue Heng's first reaction was to feel incredible, and after he understood the specific situation, he couldn't help but scold: "Yue Jin Pifu!" If you don't defend the city pass, but attack without permission, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated! ”
He said so, but right now, Yue Jin's first department, the situation is critical, and he can only order a rapid march, wanting to rush to Dingyuan as soon as possible to rescue Yue Jin.
At this moment, Yue Jin's first department, in addition to the 20,000 Qing troops who stayed in Dingyuan have been killed, he has fought with Zuo Shuang for so many days, and there are also some losses, so the current strength is less than 160,000.
Now, he also led these hundreds of thousands of young troops to arrive at the foot of Dingyuan City.
The appearance of the Qing Army was expected by Qin Mu, and at this time he was also standing in the center of the city, looking at the Qing Army below, and said loudly: "Yue Jin! You're at your wit's end! If you attack the distance, it is tantamount to self-destruction! Ben Shuai advises you to lead your troops to lay down their arms and surrender as soon as possible, so that you can have a way out! ”
When Yue Jin under the city heard this, his eyes were split, and he didn't say a word, he directly drew out his sword and shouted: "Siege the city!" ”
"Kill—"
With his order, hundreds of thousands of young soldiers began to rush towards the city pass frantically.
"Shoot the arrows!" Qin Mu in the city also immediately ordered in a cold voice.
Arrows rained down, and many people were instantly nailed to the ground, and at the same time, the green soldiers also began to pick up their bows and arrows, rushing forward, and from time to time to release arrows upward.
The rain of arrows on both sides began to shuttle back and forth in the sky, and from time to time, some wind troops were shot by arrows and fell to the city with a miserable howl.
This siege battle was extremely fierce.
But Dingyuan is a border city, the city defense is tall and solid, the defense and other equipment that Yue Jin arranged here before were taken by Qin Mu on the spot, thinking that he was using it for his own use, not to mention, the wind army guarding the city here is still the 50,000 elite division, Yue Jin wants to break through Dingyuan with more than 100,000 people, it is simply a fantasy.
In addition, there is a left double behind him, and I don't know when I will have to catch up.
Not to mention that you can't attack the city, it's impossible to get close to the city!
After a big battle, the Qing army suffered heavy losses, and the blood was spilled on the city pass, and Yue Jin was forced to have no choice but to order the troops to be withdrawn.
Subsequently, the Qingjun took a temporary rest, and its deputy general also came over, and said worriedly: "General, judging from this battle, I am afraid that it will be far away, and it will not be able to be captured in a short time." ”
When Yue Jin heard this, he said quietly: "Haven't you seen that the Feng army in Dingyuan City is not an ordinary soldier, but an elite division, and it is impossible for our army to recapture Dingyuan with only the existing strength." ”
"This ......" The adjutant general looked even more worried, and couldn't help but say: "Then what should our army do now?" ”
Yue Jin was silent for a moment, and then said: "The wind army attacked Dingyuan, it must be a mountain road, and we can also withdraw from Dingyuan along this road......"
At this time, Lu Chen was also leading the army to arrive in Dingyuan. I want to talk about "Conquering the World" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
