In order to intercept the rafts coming and going to the river, the Jin Xuedi people had no boats nearby, and the corps commander Cartenson asked the raft to go down the river to intercept it, but it was conspired by Jiao Muhua.

Jiao Muhua ordered people to make iron thorn thorn boards and lay them on all sides of the raft, and if the Jin Xuedi people wanted to board the boat, they had to jump off the thorn board, and if they stepped on it, they had to suffer. The thorn board can be turned side down when not in use, which is very convenient to use.

If a ramming is adopted, the raft is not a warship after all, and it is not comfortable for anyone to fall into the water in such a cold winter.

Temir watched the prisoners of war on the shore retreat one after another, and he was reluctant to attack several times, and the casualties were more serious than the gunpowder explosion.

Compared with the explosion of gunpowder, the fire attack is not affected by the armor, and the armor is worn more in winter, and the killing and damage of the rudimentary gunpowder weapon is only limited to four and the head, and the lethality is not high. Arson is a more effective weapon in almost any era, and it is undoubtedly an extremely effective means for heavy coats.

On the sixth day, Lu Gao and Bai He succeeded one after another, forcibly robbed tens of thousands of people, and quickly joined forces to continue the attack on the next target. When the police message reached Temir's camp, it was the eighth day of the stalemate by the river, and when he heard the news that two rebuilt cities had been looted, Temir, who had always had an excellent temper, finally couldn't sit still:

"It's only been a few days, and tens of thousands of Central Plains people have been kidnapped by those mobs. These bastards, rice buckets, and wretched people in Posong Province, why don't they have the slightest worry-free thing! ”

"Your Excellency Legion Commander, let the people of Posong Province deal with this matter."

Nakikas suggested, and Temir accepted it:

"These scum! The rearguard battalion was ordered to send auxiliary troops to encircle and suppress the mob, and the Honor Regiment continued to hold the camp to guard the prisoners of war and not to act without permission. This mess, let Po Song Province carry it by herself! Nakicas, has the lower reaches of the river figured out where these captives have gone? ”

"It had been figured out that after swimming more than two hundred miles on a raft, they landed on the shore and entered the primeval forest, which was full of swamps, and the scouts only saw them enter the depths of the forest through the pontoon bridge over the swamp.

Due to the obstruction of the swamp, our scouts could no longer go further into the forest. Cartenson's auxiliary corps is now stuck on the banks of the river, and should be drawn north if they can. ”

"Forest swamp?" Temir searched the map and quickly fell to Cupigon: "Hell, isn't this the west side of Cupigon." What did Etis's people say before, weren't those people sealed in Cupigon! Damn, hell, how did they get out! ”

"This ...... I'm afraid I don't know. ”

"These idiots, there should be a second exit for Cupigon, and they turned a blind eye!"

On the night of the attack on Temir in the ninth day, he sent men to inquire about the ins and outs of the banner of the Xian army, and it was not until a few days later that the messengers returned from the camp of Etis, and only a northern wandering army was entrenched in the hill of Chubigon, and more than 10,000 "rabble" had gathered in the south.

"Your Excellency Legion Commander, looking at it now, this army scattered to the mainland should be the Legion Commander of Nileson, the elite army of the northerners defeated in Duhui has wandered all the way to my homeland, and their main general has not been wiped out!"

"It's hard to believe that it's just Etis talking nonsense to cover up his mistakes. They have traveled thousands of miles through no man's land, and they have not encountered any interception, and now they are making waves on our own soil.

And this was all a year and a half ago, these scum in Posong Province actually concealed it and did not report it, and they were also made by a disabled wandering army, and sixty or seventy thousand people were involved, if Your Majesty knew, he would not know how to punish them. ”

"Your Excellency, what shall we do now?" Nakikas asked.

"What else can be done, it will be a great trouble for the captives to remain in Po Song Province, and they must be taken to Sondia away from Po Song Province and the news must be reported to His Majesty immediately. At the same time, we need to gather troops, retrain them, mobilize weapons and orcs, and destroy this wandering army, or the consequences will be unimaginable. These mongrels in Posong Province have concealed and delayed the military aircraft for so long, I am going to slaughter them! ”

"What about the prisoners of war on the shore? We besieged it for eight days, but we couldn't take it for a long time. ”

"Their casualties are not small, and it is better to let the avant-garde battalion continue to attack, and to be able to destroy them one by one than to regroup and cause trouble for us after escaping. In addition, it is necessary to mobilize the naval army, where are the warships of our army now? ”

"The auxiliaries of the navy have all been incorporated into the army, and the warships have been leased to officials and local municipalities for the transfer of supplies for the army, and now they may be unloaded in Songdia or in Posong City, and to get here, they need to detour to other rivers, at least more than 2,000 miles, so even if they receive orders, they will not arrive in more than a month at the earliest."

Because the tributaries of the Posong River could not flow north to the Qianyue Mountain, the Jinxuedi people did not have a threat from the water, and the navy was under the jurisdiction of the army, which sometimes acted as a sailor and sometimes as a navy, and its main business was not to fight, but to transfer local materials to the outside of the customs, and also to engage in commercial activities for officials and nobles, so it was not very professional. Even so, the army's improvised, blockade of the waterway is still a big threat.

When Temir was in a hurry, about 120,000 auxiliaries left the camp and attacked from the east and north. Just when Bai Liyan thought he had a plan, the guard battalion of the Honor Regiment unexpectedly escorted 200,000 prisoners of war to the west, which made him feel that the situation suddenly became urgent.

Obviously, the Jin Xuedi people did not want any accidents to happen to this group of prisoners of war, so they wanted to be escorted into the administrative area as soon as possible, and maybe even farther away, so as to get out of the land of right and wrong.

He now has only more than 4,000 people, and the prisoners of war are all veterans of the Honor Regiment, about 40,000 people, and more than 4,000 people are obviously not enough to launch a surprise attack, let alone a head-on confrontation. After a day of tailgating, Bailiyan still had nothing to do.

That night, he couldn't sleep with his eyes closed, and at midnight, the old man came to wake him up:

"General, there seems to be movement north of the barbarian camp."

Bai Liyan's first reaction was that Lu Gao and Bai He succeeded, and they might fight back after joining forces, but Bai Liyan's order to the two of them was to go to the southeast of Qiubi Gong Mountain to conceal and join them, and it was impossible to return the same way, and returning the same way might also bump into the auxiliary soldiers who went to encircle and suppress.

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan asked:

"What's going on?"

"The barbarian army dispatched more than 10,000 people to search north overnight, and it seems that other rebels have been found in the north."

"Shhh...... What are the rebels doing so far? ”

This place is still more than 300 miles away from the outer administrative region of Po Song Province, and the main area of activity of the rebel army is within 100 miles outside the boundary of the outer administrative region of Po Song Province.

As the target of the purge, the rebels are destined to be unable to do it themselves, and if they don't have the heart and military skills to find a business base, they are bound to live a life of panic and hunger, and the source of materials mainly depends on the officers and soldiers who robbed and killed the Jinxuedi people, if they go too far, they will take a long time to go back and forth to the lair, and the danger factor will increase on the way.

Moreover, since three years ago, the Jin Xuedi people began to build cities and expand roads in the east of Posong Province, and there was a great posture of migrants to establish new provinces, and a large number of soldiers and horses were moved, and the resistance army of several hundred people was scattered and impossible.

After pondering for a while, Bailiyan walked five miles on foot, came to a mountain bag more than ten miles away from the enemy camp, and took out his binoculars to take a closer look.

"It's weird, what are they doing in the north, look at the posture, this is a formation! Could it really be that Lu Gao and Bai He were brought back? ”

Bai Liyan's first thought was Lu Gao and Bai He, who were driven back by tens of thousands of people who were lined with mountains, and bumped into the auxiliary soldiers halfway, and rushed to the south in embarrassment.

At this time, Bai Liyan looked up at the moon position, it was almost six minutes, and the Jin Xuedi people who were guarding the prisoner of war camp moved nearly 20,000 people to the north again, and the north of the camp gathered 30,000 people at this time, and the defenders of the camp were also moving to the north camp, and there was a great posture of a big battle. Bai Liyan became more and more convinced that most of the soldiers were defeated by Lu Gao and Bai He, otherwise there was no other explanation.

Thinking of this, Baili Yan said:

"Quick, the whole battalion is assembled and ready to fight!"

"No!"

Bailiyan has already prepared for the worst, Jin Xuedi's heavy troops are gathered on the northern flank, and the east, west, and south defenses are bound to weaken, and they must find ways to deal with Lu Gao and Bai He behind their backs.

When the old man transferred all the men and horses, the situation changed subtly again, and there was a faint sound of battle horns in the air, which was more than ten miles away, and it was not very clear to hear, but it could be heard that the horn was very dense, at least it had to be a battle horn blown by twenty or thirty people, which could not help but be incredible.

The trumpet is the trumpet of the Central Plains, and Bai Liyan knows very well that there are not so many trumpeters around Lu Gao and Baihe, and the rhythm of the trumpet does not seem to be the battle horn of the Xian army.

The next moment, he shouted violently:

"Everyone listen carefully, which prince's army is this trumpet!"

Bai Liyan concluded that the horn was neither the battle horn of the Xian army, nor the battle horn of the coalition army and the Yuke army, but it was certain that the horn used was the horn of the Central Plains, and the horn of the Jin Xuedi people would never be able to blow this frequency.

After listening for a moment, the commander of the aspiring country among the armies said:

"This is the battle cry of our Zhijun"

Bailiyan felt abrupt:

"Are you sure?"

"Sure, many of the brothers here are from Zhiguo, everyone listen to it, is it our military number."

"Yes, it can't be wrong, that's the tune."

Baili Yan's mind was racing, and after changing her previous judgment, she concluded that it was very likely that the Zhi army was defeated and fled south here, or that many defeated troops were flowing here. Thinking of this, he drew his horizontal knife:

"Brothers, prepare for battle."

All the sabers and guns were ready for battle, and quickly marched towards the prisoner of war camp. On the way forward, there were already sounds of killing in the north, not to mention the shouts of tens of thousands of people fighting.

"It seems that there are really a lot of defeated soldiers in this group of soldiers who are wandering south!"

Secretly said in her heart, Bai Liyan quickened her pace.
