Chapter 387: Battle Cloud 5
In the fourth year of the Northern Dynasty, on October 21, an urgent report was sent to Luodu Da Nei.
The Kuang Wei Army and the Gongchen Army, one of the Zhenjing troops under the jurisdiction of Xingtai in the south, were lightly lured by the enemy under the city, and jointly attacked the camp at night, and fell into the ambush of the southern army, and all the troops were destroyed and out of control.
Kuang Wei Zhonglang who led the troops Qin Xuanjie, and Gongchen general Zhang Guangyi, hundreds of generals died in the battle, and the rest of the dead filled the ravine.
Subsequently, the southern army mixed into the rout, and tried to rush into the Dagu Pass without success, and was blocked under the city and was destroyed by the artillery stones.
But at the same time, a small group of dead soldiers of the Southern Army who were good at climbing mountains from Niuxin Mountain in the eastern part of the Kanto region were entangled with iron cone walls, and climbed the cliffs one by one, and entered the city by night.
Burn and kill and set fire as a cover, and use the gunpowder essential oil to destroy the gate and open the hole to prevent it.
The southern gateway to Luodu, which is only 100 miles away, has since been breached and fallen to the hands of the Southern Army.
As the saying goes, blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular.
Another piece of news that followed,
The Southern Dynasty has always lived in Hongnong County, monitoring Tongguan and guarding the West Road soldiers and horses in Shaanzhou, and suddenly moved, and went all out to capture Lushi County, along the Xiluoshui all the way up, even breaking Gaomen Pass, Songyang Laoguan, Songyang Xinguan, Shazha Town, Luqiaoyi, and approaching the Yongning Army under Xiong'er Mountain.
As for the southern army's largest number of soldiers and horses, and the most fierce attack on the eastern defense line, it is naturally that in addition to the bad news, it is still bad news that makes people a little insensitive, but the specific number and sooner or later.
The periphery of Xuzhou, Bianzhou, Huazhou, and Yuzhou all fell, all relying on Zhengzhou all the way, and the Yang Keshi Department of Guancheng in the salient part was independently supported and made the last hard resistance.
However, with the loss and change of hands one by one in the north of Guancheng, the towns of Sujuo, Yangwu, Yuanwu and Rongze, the only ones that were not attacked and remained unobstructed to the outside world along the Yellow River in the north had to shrink.
Because, starting from the town of Heyin outside the Bishui Pass, the Yellow River Water Division, which was responsible for transporting personnel and materials to Dugandao and Luozhong, also had to be exposed to the threat and blows of the heavy equipment of the Southern Army, resulting in casualties and losses.
Outside the few large ferries along the river,
In the splashes that splashed from time to time, boatloads of unarmed soldiers and young men from all over Hebei and Hedong were sent to the south bank day and night.
Then, after a long journey, they were cold and tired, and before they had time to take a few more breaths, they quickly filled the meat grinder on the front battlefield under the shouts and shouts of the leading generals.
They didn't even have to carry any armor, because there were all sorts of blood-stained ownerless things waiting for them to use at the front.
Occasionally, a fully laden ship would be hit or ignited by the rocks and fireballs flying from the shore, and then capsize or burn out of direction, and float downstream with countless dumpling-like human bodies.
In the icy waters, it is almost impossible for anyone to swim alive to the shore
Huazhou, outside the site of the ancient slippery platform,
Uncle Zhang, who was tired and emaciated, was also anxiously waiting for the latest news from the waterway.
Step by step to the current situation, he is actually using his limited forces and authority to take risks to carry out the strategy of Natian Ji horse racing.
In fact, he only wants the greatest result on one road, and the other two roads are just pawns that can be given up and sacrificed.
Fortunately, although the number of the Southern Army was large, it was also quite complicated, and the specific coordination and command of the various armies inevitably caused some delays and delays.
It doesn't matter when the main battle is offensive and defensive, but under the division of troops and the pursuit of all sides, it is necessary to avoid revealing all kinds of flaws and poor cohesion. This gave him an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
But as he got closer and closer to the direction of the road,
subsequently
Uncle Zhang didn't get the news from the front that he was looking forward to, but he first got a report from the back road, and the Southern Army flag that followed behind seemed to have changed, no longer the wind and thunder flag of red flame and purple lightning, but the unfamiliar top corner Pegasus flag.
Hearing this news, all the generals from top to bottom seemed to be greatly relieved.
Since crossing the Yellow River and making contact, this southern army, which is like a maggot attached to the bones, is undoubtedly the most troublesome opponent.
In particular, it is possible to indirectly discover that the soldiers who have fled back from defeat have been in some kind of metamorphosis and have been constantly increasing.
Initially, this left wing of the new army was only a pure infantry team, and it was also quite deficient in long-range maneuvering and pursuit, and it could take advantage of the advantages of the Northern Army's Doma to open the distance and choose another target for him to attack;
But by the time of the battle of Weishan Lake, the other side already had a decent subordinate artillery team, as well as the ability to attack and break the formation; When the two major battles in Yunzhou arrived, even the large-scale horse teams also appeared in the opponent's battle sequence.
Obviously, the South Korean side is also consciously strengthening and supporting this force (without taking into account the factors of annexation and blackmailing friendly forces), how can this not be more worrying.
The people and horses left behind, once their horse team in the north is entangled, they must be mentally prepared for the strong man to break his wrist, fortunately, they don't have to worry about these for the time being.
Half a day later,
Looking at the fields ahead, some hastily converging arrays and dense flags, Uncle Zhang's mood calmed down, and finally met the interception force of the Southern Army.
"Forward, don't stop......"
"Don't care what happens ...... behind you"
"The survival of the family and the country, fame and wealth, it will be a success or failure in this ......"
He galloped in front of the army and shouted loudly.
"Attack straight over and penetrate these southern barbarians......"
"Great merit and reward are just around the corner......
He was met with a mountain of roars and roars
Outside the city of Lingchang in Huazhou,
Niu Gao, the catcher, held a double hammer in his hand, and looked at the road ahead with some indignation, as if the officers and soldiers were arrayed by the enemy, or under the constraints of Du Sang, the commander of the seventh battalion of the rear team, he shouted left and right and turned his horse and retreated.
Leave this unexpected encounter to the Honjin to decide.
"Nani, are friendly forces blocking the road ahead?"
I was surprised.
"Which ...... is it?"
"Yes."
Mu Long, who was in charge of the report, hesitated and said with a complicated expression
"The color of the flag of the center of the Forces nouvelles."
"What's going on......"
I was even more surprised, it was actually the first general of the new army to intercept my troops as the seventh general, what kind of song was this going to sing.
Didn't they just withdraw from Bianzhou to rest, how could they run in front of us?
Then I rode to the front of the confrontation, but on the opposite side I met the deputy commander of the model New Army, the first general of the center of the New Army, Feng Taisu.
In my impression, he was born in a famous family in Beijing and has considerable qualifications in the army in front of the palace, but he is quite handsome and handsome, and he is a very suave character, but this time we met, but I was a little more old and vicissitudes.
Surrounded by a group of generals, he looked at me from afar with a somewhat complicated expression, and a military attache with a loud voice at the front was loudly declaring something.
"What are they shouting......
I asked, inaudible
"Claim that our army has crossed the border and is beyond the original defense area?"
A marquis whispered to me
"Please return it as soon as possible is ......"
"Whether you cross the line or not, it's not up to you to say......
I sneered too
"Call me back, the army chasing the fleeing enemy is urgent, dare to stop more, Lao Tzu will fight over......"
However, the other party was obviously prepared for this, and after hearing the commotion, he divided a small group of cavalry and escorted an envoy in a purple robe.
"I've seen Marshal Luo......"
He was a little nervous on the horse, and nodded slightly at me
"A certain family is the southeast line of the division of Zuo Chengxuan Xia Mi. I was ordered by the commander to wait here for the department."
Then he took out a roll of documents covered with fire signs, and handed it to a Marquis Yu in person to pass it over,
"This is a document issued by the commander and handed over the position?"
"Whatever the guerrillas are involved in, the rest of the pursuit of the enemy and the extermination of the army shall be handed over to other units on the spot."
I sneered, but my mood sank. We've been chasing for so many days and fighting a lot of battles, so we can't wait to jump out and pick peaches.
In order to recruit us back, Shuai Si was really well-intentioned, and he actually sent an order in advance and called in the troops on the front line to prevent us from evading and expedient measures.
Thinking of this, my mood suddenly became a little agitated and resentful, almost immediately like raising my hand to do something, at this time, Han Liangchen, who was standing behind me, suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the reins of my horse's head, and looked at my eyes with great determination,
Then the fifth flat also leaned up, sideways to block my movement of raising my hand, and whispered two words "Luodu", I took a deep breath, and the palm of the steel whip handle was stinging, and only then did I hold back some impulse and unwillingness.
If I really dare to offend the world's condemnation, ignore the military order and go straight through, these center-forward allies will definitely not be able to stop us in front of us.
But it also means that there will be no turning back from the front of the rebellion, and it will become an intolerable target between the north and the south, and how many of these subordinates of various positions and backgrounds will be willing to continue to follow and abandon them.
There is a certain ambition and expectation, but at least for now, I am not fully prepared to bear this cost.
"Obey Your Commands"
After looking around at the complicated expressions left and right, I exhaled heavily, still in a very unpleasant voice
"That's it...... A certain family still needs to go to life"
Seeing that I accepted the text, he also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, hurriedly bid me goodbye, and couldn't wait to return it to the array opposite, as if something was biting behind it.
In some inexplicable affection from the whole army, under the watchful eyes of the friendly troops, we began to turn the carriage and the whole team turned, and slowly retreated towards the way we came.
