"Hmmm! It's okay for Aiqing to go, I'm just here waiting for Aiqing to deliver good news. Li Gande did not question Li Changjie's suggestion, because this old minister had never let him down.

The reason why Li Changjie chose Guo Zhongxiao's road is because, from the current point of view, the Song army in the north is the greatest threat to Thang Long City. Advance step by step, break layer by layer, and march to a certain extent.

On the contrary, on the eastern side of the road, the commander of this road was obviously a stunned young man, regardless of the direct rush in the direction of the imperial city, regardless of the fact that the Dayue army that might appear next to him at any time. The reason why it is still smooth sailing is that all the armies in Dongcheng have no leader, and for some reason they suddenly lost their rules.

Blocked by General Nguyen Chong and the sturdy walls of the imperial city, His Majesty is naturally safe.

Li Changjie calculated very well, once he led the army to annihilate the enemy army in the north city, he would immediately detour back to the back of the army on the east road, and converge with the forbidden army in the imperial city to take them down in one fell swoop.

So, Li Changjie took the holy decree and led the 50,000 troops urgently mobilized from the south and west cities, and immediately faced Guo Zhongxiao from the royal street to the north.

In order to reduce the losses in the city, Li Changjie did not dispatch the trump card of the Dayue National Army-elephant cavalry.

It didn't take long for the two armies to collide head-on.

Guo Zhongxiao immediately set up a defensive position as before, ready to meet the enemy.

However, after seeing the number of enemy troops on the opposite side, everyone present gasped.

There are 1,000 people, and there are 10,000 people, and there are no boundaries.

What's more, as long as they are not blind, anyone can see that the number of enemy troops in front of them has obviously far exceeded the number of 10,000.

And how many people are in the Song army led by Guo Zhongxiao.

The army of the North Road was 15,000 men in total. The soldiers who remained to defend the two gates on the north side left two thousand each, while only eight hundred men remained at the north gate.

Starting from the north gate, there were countless camps along the way, but they also suffered a lot of losses.

The number of dead and wounded had exceeded 1,000, and after the wounded had been transported back with 100 men, 400 men were temporarily drawn from the north gate to catch up with the large force.

Then, at this moment, Guo Zhongxiao's team is only 9,000 when it is full, and as for those Dayue troops who have been pushed to the front of the battle to be cannon fodder, it is very unlikely that they will draw their swords against their compatriots under the coercion of their own side. Therefore, Guo Zhongxiao simply did not leave any weapons for these surrendered soldiers.

"Generals, what should we do now? It's not that I'm destroying my own morale, but now that there is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces, even if we all die in this battle, it will be difficult to defeat the enemy army in front of us! Looking at the countless enemy troops in front of him, Guo Zhongxiao asked helplessly.

Everyone else chose to remain silent at this time, because in the current situation, everyone understands that there is only one way to retreat immediately, which is also what Cai Dao specially instructed before dividing the troops. In the event of an enemy army, there is no need to fight, but simply turn around and flee back to the north gate, where the fortifications they have built.

As long as they hold the north gate, the Cai Dao East Road army will have the opportunity to help them, and the city wall is much higher than other buildings in the city, and the Song army also brought a lot of divine arm bows this time. Although it is second-hand, this era is definitely a magic weapon.

Since there are already countermeasures, Guo Zhongxiao's question is simply redundant.

Dean still spoke, as the deputy commander of this southern expedition, he naturally knew the importance of making a timely response. "General Guo, generals, it is better to retreat immediately, once the enemy army detours back to our back, it will be too late to escape at that time."

Smell the drum and advance, smell the gold and retreat.

This is the usual command of the general to direct the actions of the soldiers in ancient warfare. However, Cai Dao asked Guo Zhongxiao and Dean to adopt unconventional training methods when training these recruits.

On the battlefield, if you hear your own drums, you order your soldiers to rush forward two steps first, and then immediately drop everything on their bodies except for their weapons, and immediately follow the people behind them who are holding red flags and quickly retreat.

Although the training time of these recruits is still short, they also served as tuntian soldiers for a period of time during this period. However, according to Cai Dao's explanation, ten miles of heavily armed cross-country running every day has become a common occurrence for these recruits.

At the beginning, both the generals and these recruits were naturally very resistant.

However, Cai Dao did not force these recruits to run, but those recruits who completed the designated tasks were able to eat a full meal every day, and the top 100 could also eat meat. The higher the ranking, the more meat they eat, and the first place is even full of beef.

This kind of treatment is that those generals are greedy, and it is more likely that these ordinary people have not eaten a few meals of meat in their lives?

So, in the face of huge rewards, even without the urging of the generals, these recruits spontaneously went to run every morning, rain or shine. However, on rainy days, you only need to wear a single outfit.

Being in the south is the advantage of this, even in winter, you are not afraid of being poured cold by heavy rain, and after you go back, a bowl of hot ginger soup will force out the cold in the hearts of the soldiers.

Of course, all this is Cai Dao's own pocket, and those generals must participate in the running with the soldiers if they want to enjoy the same treatment. Of course, Cai Dao's treatment of these generals is naturally much better than that of the recruits, and all the generals who finish running will not be able to receive a certain amount of wine. There are all kinds of tastes, it depends on the preferences of these generals.

Guo Zhongxiao naturally disdained to participate in such an action, but as long as he did not delay the normal training and the daily affairs of Tuntian, he had no reason to stop the spontaneous activities of the recruits.

Think about it, from August to December, the recruits have been running for a full hundred days since they were recruited. Even if you are stupid, you are now walking like a fly.

Even, there are a few recruits who are extremely fast and can already keep up with the speed of the BMW under Dian's crotch. In the military, they are called 'Scuds'.

Having said all that, now is the time to see the real chapter and see the results.

However, for the sake of safety, Dean let the chariot that Guo Zhongxiao was riding in push to the end of the entire army, and then arranged for those 'Scuds' to set off immediately, and to the back according to Di'an's instructions to arrange some back-ups.

And Dean himself pressed in front of the formation.

"Drumming!" After Di An stabilized his mind, he let out a loud shout, only to see the standard-bearer immediately waving the dragon flag in his hand when he heard the words.

After the battle, Guo Zhongxiao's carriage had already turned the direction of the horse's head, and began to start slowly while beating the drum.

As soon as Li Changjie heard the drumming on the opposite side, he hurriedly ordered his side to be on guard, he actually admired the commander of the enemy in front of him in his heart.
