Chapter 568: Shocking Step by Step
Yan Xing was worried about Han Sui's safety, and the candidate was killed by Zhang Liao, so the two of them never thought of besieging and killing Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao knew that chasing the enemy deep was a taboo for soldiers, so he took advantage of the fact that the soldiers of the Korean army had not yet reacted, and then counterattacked and rushed back towards the position of the soldiers and horses of the army.
It is said that Han Sui was the first to flee into the mountains and forests, and in the middle of the line, suddenly a group of men and horses rushed out of the dense forest on the left. Han Sui was so frightened that he thought he had encountered an ambush again.
"My lord!? What a lord!! The lord is not surprised, the last general is late to play with the rescue, and I hope that the lord will forgive his sins! ”
The leader of this biao horse, after seeing Han Sui's face clearly, was pleasantly surprised. Han Sui heard this familiar voice, and hurriedly looked over, the big man with a beard and a bull's head and a cow's body was exactly the general who was guarding Ma Ling.
"Horse play!! How could you be here!! And why Maling was captured by Zhang Wenyuan's soldiers and horses, but you didn't know how to come to report it!! ”
As soon as Han Sui saw the horse playing, he was immediately shocked, but when he thought of something, he quickly became angry and shouted angrily at the horse. Fortunately, he was quite cautious just now, if he hadn't sent Cheng Yi over to investigate, but rashly led the army into the city, then the consequences would be unimaginable. Ma is also innocent, if he can rush to report it, how can he not report it!
"The Lord is angry. The last will know his guilt. However, three days ago, not long after the lord's leading army left Maling, Zhang Wenyuan's soldiers and horses jumped out of nowhere, and an army of nearly 15,000 or so rushed towards Maling City. Seeing that the enemy's army was so strong that 2,000 soldiers could not defend it, the last general abandoned the city and fled.
Zhang Liao led the army to chase after him, and the last general fled to the mountains and forests five miles away here, and Zhang Wenyuan was willing to give up and retreat. Later, the last general was afraid that the lord would also encounter an accident, and wanted to lead the army to report, but Zhang Wenyuan laid passes everywhere, and the last general forcibly broke through, and they were all killed, and lost a lot of soldiers!! ”
"You said that Zhang Wenyuan jumped out of nowhere? Could it be that he was already waiting around here with the army!? ”
Han Sui's eyes narrowed, and his heart was flustered. After thinking about it for a while, Ma Yu also had an inexplicable look on his face.
"Maybe it's as the lord expected. Maling is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there are only two major roads to get there. These two armies are patrolled by our scouts, and if they are not ambushed in advance, it is impossible to hide from the sky and cross the sea. ”
A strange chill rose from the soles of Han Sui's feet to the Heavenly Spirit Gai. Han Sui suddenly felt cold all over his body, feeling like a turtle in an urn.
While Han Sui was thinking about it, Yan Xing and Cheng Yin's two generals arrived one after another, and at the same time, a group of remnants of the army also came. Han Sui heard that Yan Xing had reported that Zhang Liao had retreated, so Han Sui was a little relieved, and hurriedly ordered the generals to rectify the remnants of the army, and fled quickly while Zhang Liao's pursuers had not arrived.
At this time, the night was dark, but Han Sui did not dare to rest, and fled several miles away, and the accompanying soldiers were really tired, so Han Sui ordered the whole army to rest and recuperate.
Time passed like a white horse, and the night passed quickly.
Early tomorrow morning, Han Sui ordered the generals of each department to sort out the number of soldiers, and learned that the army was only less than 20,000 at this time.
"Yan Ming, it seems that this extraordinary intelligence is beyond the imagination of you and me. The actions of the Northland may lead you and me into a catastrophe from which they will never recover. ”
Han Sui stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the rising sun, his face was full of weakness and a trace of imperceptible remorse. Yan Xing stood behind Han Sui, and he, who had been with Han Sui for many years, seemed to have sensed Han Sui's thoughts.
Han Sui wanted to withdraw his troops and withdraw from the Northland. This place in the Northland made him feel frightened every step of the way.
"Lord, do you want to quit the army?"
"Retreat. But it is not all out of Beiping. We first retreated the army to the border of Beiping. Although Wen Bufan is thousands of miles away, he knows everything about my every move, the killing opportunities in the north are infinite, I will go deep into the deep belly of the north at this time, and then stay longer, I am afraid that the only remaining 20,000 soldiers of our army will be swallowed up sooner or later. ”
Han Sui's face was flat, and he made up his mind to withdraw his troops from the north, but the apprehension in his heart disappeared. Yan Xing frowned and said with some doubts.
"But in this northern land, the Wen army has revealed the traces of 30,000 soldiers and horses. It is unlikely that other cities and counties in the Northland will be ambushed. If the lord retreats to the border of the northern lands, then the cities that we have attacked before will definitely be recaptured by the Wen army. ”
"Yan Ming. Wen Bufan's ideas have always been wild, and his advisers are the best at scheming. If my guess is correct, it is very likely that Wen Bufan will gather all 50,000 in the north, set up a heavy killing game, first destroy me or Ma Shoucheng's forces, and then gather strong troops to attack the other. We will stay away from its hinterland, and if something happens, we can escape as soon as possible. ”
Han Sui's eyes were shining, deep and full of wisdom. Yan Xing's heart was shocked when he heard this, if it was really as Han Sui expected, wouldn't it be a Jedi abyss here in the Northland, and anyone who came to attack would inevitably fall into the abyss!
Yan Xing unconsciously swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and asked again.
"Where does the lord want to retreat?"
"Fuping."
"Fuping? It is the closest to Xinping, does the lord want to join forces with Ma Shoucheng? ”
"Neither in nor in between. We first rushed to Phu Binh and ordered a team to ride fast to find out the news of Tan Binh. If Wen Bufan really gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses in the north, presumably Ma Shoucheng had already attacked Xinping at this time, so that we could first defend Fuping and wait for Ma Shoucheng to come to help. If not, we can send troops to Xinping to help Ma Shoucheng attack Beiping, and then join forces with the army to attack Beidi. ”
Han Sui didn't know what calculation he had in his heart, and when he heard it, Yan Xing was confused, Yan Xing frowned deeply, and then asked.
"My lord, that Ma Shoucheng and we have always been at odds. Why do we have to send troops to help? What if we help him to attack Xinping, but Ma Shoucheng sees that our army has suffered heavy casualties, and after the combined army captures the north, he suddenly attacks and counterattacks our army? ”
"Don't worry about it. When we arrived in Fuping, I immediately sent people back to Liangzhou, and ordered Cheng Gongying, Liang Xing, and Yang Qiu to lead 60,000 soldiers and horses. However, although Ma Shoucheng is brave and unstrategic, but he is not completely irrational, at the moment I and he provoked the terrifying cannibal tiger, he and I will benefit both, and the division will never recover. But if that Ma Shoucheng dares to harbor a ghost fetus, I will teach him to die without a place to be buried! ”
Han Sui's face suddenly became extremely cold, as if he was a little expecting Ma Teng to make a move on him. Of course, if Han Sui was about to deal with Ma Teng, he would also annihilate all Wen Han's soldiers and horses in Yongzhou before he could do it.
"It turns out that the lord has already made up his mind, but the general is too worried. The general informed the officers and soldiers of the various ministries to prepare to withdraw to Fuping. ”
Han Sui bowed slightly, and after Yan Xing said goodbye, he quickly ordered all the soldiers of the department. After resting for the night, the 20,000 Korean soldiers recovered a lot of physical strength, and an hour later, under the leadership of various generals, they marched to Fuping.
A few days later, 20,000 Han troops finally arrived at Fuping, which was also one of the seven cities that Han Sui had previously attacked. After Han Sui placed 20,000 soldiers, he sent a team of light cavalry to Xinping to inquire about information.
Two days later, the scouts rushed back to Xinping to meet Han Sui and informed Han Sui that the cities and counties on the border of Xinping were still planted with text flags and were still guarded by Wen Han's soldiers and horses. Han Sui listened to this and pondered for a while, if it was as reported by the scouts, then Wen Han did not concentrate all his soldiers and horses in the north.
Han Sui's mind was racing, and he quickly analyzed the battle situation in front of him one by one. After that, he first sent people to Liangzhou to ask for reinforcements, and then ordered to notify the officers and soldiers of all departments to prepare to march to Xinping.
Han Sui quickly reorganized the army, and the next day he led all the officers and soldiers and 20,000 troops to the Xinping border. On the border between Xinping and Beidi, there are many valleys and high mountains, and the terrain is extremely steep. Han Sui led the army cautiously, and successively passed three high mountains and two valley roads.
Three days later, Han Sui ordered his soldiers to rest on the side of a high mountain. After days of hurrying, both Han Sui and his soldiers were full of exhaustion.
At this moment, mutations were born again. Suddenly, several artillery shots erupted, and the 20,000 Korean troops were frightened.
"Kill the !!!"
After the cannon fired, the overwhelming shouts of killing soon followed. Groups of civilian soldiers surged down from the mountains like a flood tide, and Xu Rong led 8,000 cavalry troops to rush to the front.
"Why!! Why is there an ambush here!! Could it be that Wen Bufan had expected that I would rush to help Ma Shoucheng!! ”
Han Sui saw that the mountain was densely packed with soldiers of the Wen army, and his head seemed to explode open, he really couldn't understand why all his thoughts seemed to be known by Wen Han. Han Sui's whole person was like crazy, Yan Xing called Han Sui even after, but Han Sui still stood in place in a daze, motionless.
At this time, the soldiers around Han Sui had already been in chaos and fled frantically to the foot of the mountain. Yan Xing didn't care any more, grabbed Han Sui with one hand, lifted Han Sui onto his mount, and stabbed him on the horse's buttocks. Han Sui's mount hissed in pain and galloped away frantically. Yan Xing hurriedly ordered Cheng Yin and the candidates to hold Han Sui, while he led a group of soldiers to kill the Wen soldiers who rushed down from the mountain.
Xu Rong rode his horse and rushed down, and the horse ran downhill, and the momentum increased sharply. As soon as Xu Rong saw Yan Xing, his face was suddenly filled with cold and killing intent, Xu Rong raised his spear, and a group of cavalry immediately accelerated forward, forming a formation and rushing towards Yan Xing.
One by one, the cavalry raised their spears, and the horses galloped wildly, rushing towards Yan Xing with extremely fast momentum, like a fierce flying shadow. Yan Xing was startled when he saw a group of cavalry soldiers coming towards a high place, and hurriedly shook his spirit and waved his gun to block it. The first group of cavalry flew by, and dozens of spears swept down on Yan Xing's body like a hurricane, Yan Xing danced wildly with an eagle's head lance, and dozens of huge forces bombarded his eagle's head lance almost simultaneously.
Bang bang !!
The first round of attack was impressively killed, Yan Xing's arms were numb for a while, and before he could recover his breath, at this time, a team of cavalry troops lined up in formation under Xu Rong's order and rushed to Yan Xing!
