……

On the ninth day of the second month of the leap month, part of the original Congzhou Houying army laid an ambush on the road, and the other part turned backwards after a short rest, intending to fight against the army of the king of Yunnan behind him.

The Yunnan royal department knew that it was not good, so they put on the defensive in time and sought favorable terrain on the spot to deal with it. At this time, the Yan army, which had been left behind in Congzhou, arrived in time from the queen of Yunnan. The situation has finally deteriorated to the most dangerous time expected.

……

After hearing the actual situation, the king of Yunnan and the staff around them were silent. The reason for the silence of the staff can be imagined, after all, the red mouth and white teeth have explained the consequences to the king of Yunnan before, and the current situation is also expected by everyone, what else can they say. Do you want to scold Li Zongxing for not knowing what to say? Although there are not many customers who have the mentality of "the one who is a confidant dies", after so many years of eating and drinking others, it is a little difficult to get by if he directly scolds him. And I think that the king of Yunnan also has a point in his heart, and he doesn't need them to point it out.

As for the silence of the king of Yunnan, it was only because he was thinking, thinking about some issues that only he could think about.

After a while, Zhang Dou broke the silence first: "Well, now that everyone knows about this situation, let's all say our opinions." ”

"I don't have any opinion anymore, the matter has come to this point, it is all due to our poor persuasion, I really have nothing to say." This was quite unkind, and Zhang Doucai couldn't help but glance at Li Zongxing from the corner of his eye, and saw that he didn't have much reaction, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ahem, uh...... At this point, colleagues should not be attached to the things that have passed, after all, there is no point in clinging, we should focus on the present. What do you think about the current situation? ”

"The contemptible people have some humble opinions, and they are not worth talking about."

"Brother Tai's words are out of sight, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"In the current situation, our army will not be able to take advantage of whether it is advancing or retreating, and even if we will not lose the upper hand alone, we will definitely end up in a situation where we are caught between two sides. It is better to break it into pieces on the spot, divide them into small teams and retreat into the mountains and forests, and then adapt to the situation, so that our army will suffer the least losses......"

"The last general is wrong to say this, if we retreat before the battle, it will greatly affect our morale, even if we retreat into the mountains and forests, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be difficult to integrate because of the lack of fighting spirit. Besides, we don't necessarily end up in the middle of the attack. Yesterday, Brother Zhang also said that this action means that Liang Jing will have a change, the soldiers are fast, the main purpose of the rear camp army should be to gallop to Liang Jing, if we turn around to attack the Yan army from Congzhou, and pretend to be invincible, the soldiers and horses in the rear camp are likely to abandon us and continue to go to Liang Jing, so that the predicament we are in will be solved. ”

"'Inevitably'? The general should not magnify his words, even if the battle situation in Liangjing is very urgent, in the current situation that we have neither time nor geographical advantages, let alone anyone, is it difficult to exterminate us for the Yan army, which has an advantage in numbers and preparations? ”

"......" The officer who proposed to turn back and attack was just about to argue something, but he heard the king of Yunnan, who was sitting in the first place, clear his throat.

"Ahem, since you have said it so clearly, this king has no choice but to follow your opinion."

These words confused the staff below, and the second monk was confused, and said bluntly: When did we discuss and come up with a clear answer?

"You say that it is not advisable to retreat, and you have a very reasonable point; You also said that it is not advisable to attack backwards, and what you said is also very reasonable. This is the meaning of letting this king move on without being influenced by them, and it is indeed a good choice. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff around him was clearly divided into two factions, one of which had a face full of doubts and puzzles, while the other began to ponder.

As I said, Li Zongxing is certainly not a fool. He couldn't have been unaware that the reason people weren't discussing the possibility was simply because it was stupid. Moreover, the fact that he had never made the decision to ignore the staff group without explaining the reason before had appeared twice in the past two days, which had to make people doubt the true intentions of the king of Yunnan.

At this moment, a doorman finally mustered up the courage to stand up and say the words that many people wanted to say, "Your Highness, you have misunderstood what we mean, if you say that there is still five points of life in retreating and attacking backwards, Your Highness is afraid that you will be dead and dead." ”

"Shut up!" When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked intently, but saw that the person who stopped was not the king of Yunnan himself, but Zhang Doucai beside him.

"Zhang Mou thinks that His Royal Highness's plan is very good, don't talk nonsense and shake the hearts of the army!" This nonsense sentence that he said with his eyes open attracted everyone's attention, including Li Zongxing.

Most of the doormen are confused, obviously this chapter Doucai seemed to be quite sober yesterday, and his speech is also very reasonable, why did he start to talk about it today?

There were also some doormen with vigilant expressions on their faces, and they were afraid that this Zhang Doucai had already seen something from Li Zongxing's words and deeds, otherwise it would be impossible to agree with this stupid plan even if they were talking nonsense.

As for Li Zongxing, he looked at Zhang Doucai and smiled, "It seems that you have no objections?" Then let's go ahead and prepare. ”

"Yes!"

……

Soon, Li Zongxing's army changed formations and attacked directly into the depths of the rear camp army in a sagittal formation.

Soon, the Zhao army did not feel any pressure and pressed into the interior of the rear camp army. At this moment, only a long howl was heard, and the pre-set ambush soldiers surrounded the two wings and from behind, as if wrapping a bun with a slightly biased filling. Although the Yan army behind Li Zongxing was huge, it was actually a temporary ambush, and it was relatively weak in numbers and tactics. And the Yan army in front of him, although he frequently retreated before, did not receive real losses, and he gnawed very hard.

Therefore, a wise general would undoubtedly choose to break through backwards or flanks when faced with such a situation, but Li Zongxing did not do that, although he was also a wise man.

He chose not to change his momentum and continued to advance, detaching only a small number of troops to deal with the ambush behind him and on both flanks.

Soon, he felt the price of such a choice.

Each step of the way became extremely difficult, and every step of the way was a huge loss of men. On the battlefield, countless bodies and blood have lost their due vitality, and the formation and reason have lost all their role here, and the only thought of the soldiers is to frantically swing the spear in their hands to bring death to the enemy in front of them, so that they can survive.

Li Zongxing had some of his disciples by his side to escort him, so his own safety was not too much of a threat.

"You say that it is not advisable to retreat, and you have a very reasonable point; You also said that it is not advisable to attack backwards, and what you said is also very reasonable.
