Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Last Stand

Guo Chen intended to expose this matter, so he said: "We were careless for a while, the bandits actually came to rob the camp, generals, let's talk about it." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Fang Sizhe intentionally or unintentionally, because it was Fang Sizhe's idea to press the camp in the previous place.

Fang Sizhe looked at Chen Wenzhou deeply a few times, and his heart was very unhappy, with both jealousy and disgust.

In order to snatch back the limelight and prove his military command ability, he said at the moment: "General, we lost just now because our army was defenseless, thinking that those bandits are just a rabble, we might as well reorganize our military horses, counterattack the opposite side, and kill them by surprise!" ”

"Yes!"

"That's exactly how it should be!"

Some of the generals chimed in.

Guo Chen looked at Chen Wenzhou with his eyes, and his meaning was self-evident.

Hao Tingyu said softly beside him: "Wen Zhou, if you don't want to speak, my brother will help you to rest, I will see who dares to touch you!" ”

Chen Wenzhou felt that the temperature in his body was about to steam himself, so he didn't hear them too clearly just now.

Originally, he was branded as a reactionary spy leader one after another, but Chen Wenzhou didn't want to say anything more.

But thinking of Guo Chen's two life-saving graces and Hao Tingyu's sake, he gritted his teeth and said: "Our army is newly defeated and its morale is low, so it is not appropriate to fight at this time." When the group robbed the camp, I saw that although the uniforms were messy, they were quite in formation, and the enemy's main general must be someone who was good at using soldiers. In my opinion, it is better to retreat ten miles, avoid the edge for the time being, and make a good strategy! General Guo must personally lead the elite to break the queen, and in Chen's humble opinion, the other party must chase after him! ”

Fang Sizhe glanced at Chen Wenzhou with great disdain, and said with a smile: "After the defeat in the first battle, it will shrink like this, where is the prestige of my Tang Army?" ”

Guo Chen frowned and looked at Chen Wenzhou, Chen Wenzhou stopped talking and closed his eyes.

He estimated that he had a fever of forty degrees, and his mouth was dry and his body ached.

With Fang Sizhe's domineering style, Chen Wenzhou disdained to discuss with him, but because Guo Chen saved his life twice in a row and the lives of thousands of soldiers of Shuofang's army, Chen Wenzhou made a plan.

I said that it is your own business to adopt it or not.

Guo Chen saw that Chen Wenzhou was not going to speak, and thought about it for a while, and finally she felt that although Chen Wenzhou was a little annoying, the suggestion was indeed reasonable.

Her mind is by no means an ordinary child, and she is also the commander of an army, so she naturally understands that she cannot listen to and believe partially based on her own personal likes and dislikes.

So he ordered: "Ten miles back!" The generals will follow me! ”

Guo Chen instructed her left and right relatives to take care of Chen Wenzhou, and those two relatives were also daughters.

It's not that Guo Chen looks at Chen Wenzhou differently, but that the military situation is urgent, and Guo Chen plans to ask Chen Wenzhou for advice.

"Wen Zhou, take care!" Hao Tingyu shook Chen Wenzhou's hand, and saw that Guo Chen arranged for someone to take care of him, so he left with Guo Chen.

Sure enough, before the Shuo Fang army could pull out, the group of men and horses who robbed the camp had already felt that the Shuo Fang army had fought and retreated, but fortunately, Guo Chen and a fierce general had personally retreated the pursuing army.

Guo Chen's two relatives carried Chen Wenzhou on a grain cart, and because they couldn't find the bedding for a while, and Chen Wenzhou was shivering with cold, the two maids took materials on the spot and covered him with the broken big coffin.

Chen Wenzhou thought in a daze: The banner is draped, this is the treatment of martyrs, could it be that I really want to sacrifice my life for the country this time?

The army retreated ten miles and rested in place.

Guo Chen rode his horse to Chen Wenzhou's carriage.

"What's wrong?" Chen Wenzhou heard Guo Chen ask in a daze.

The two female guards replied, "Miss, he has a high fever and is in a coma, and if he doesn't help him, I'm afraid he will aggravate his condition."

Guo Chen pulled the curtain of the car, only to see Chen Wenzhou's cheeks flushed, shortness of breath, and trembling.

Chen Wenzhou barely opened his eyes, and Guo Chen hurriedly said; "It's been shaken off."

Chen Wenzhou's lips were chapped, and he shook his head with an almost invisible amplitude, "The other party is very good at using soldiers, and he will not give up, and if he retreats ten miles from here, it will return to Longtan, which is a few zhang deep, cutting off the river bank, and on the other side is the cliff on the southeast side of Luliang Mountain, the other party must drive us there and force us into a desperate situation!" Annihilate them in one fell swoop. ”

Guo Chen's eyebrows tightened, "Then I'll take someone to fight back!" ”

"No!" Chen Wenzhou licked his chapped lips, "Retreat ten miles more, retreat to Huilongtan!" ”

Guo Chen was shocked, "Huilongtan is a Jedi, and there will be no room for maneuver and retreat at that time!" ”

Chen Wenzhou smiled faintly and said in a hoarse voice: "Back then, the overlord of Chu had 30,000 Chu troops against the 300,000 army of Qin General Zhang Han, and if he could break it in one fell swoop, it would be a battle against the water. We retreat to Huilongtan, there is no way to retreat, we will be able to stimulate the soldiers' desire to survive, and defeat the enemy army in one go! This is the way to break and then establish! ”

Although Chen Wenzhou was weak and hoarse, he exuded a strong confidence in his words.

Guo Chen saw Chen Wenzhou's confident smile, his heart settled down a lot, and nodded, "I know." ”

"General, you will divide the elite of our army into two teams, starting from here, set up an ambush every five miles, hidden in the woods by the river, and then you personally after the palace, lead a large team of men and horses to lead the enemy to Huilongtan, and then order the soldiers to break the enemy to the death, at that time our army is a desperate division, the enemy is difficult to be the edge, must retreat, at this time the two ambushes come out together, the enemy is cut into three sections, divided and surrounded, this battle will be a big victory! Ahem, ahem! Chen Wenzhou said reluctantly.

Guo Chen nodded, and was about to leave, when he turned back and said, "Hold on!" ”

Chen Wenzhou nodded.

So, Guo Chen ordered to divide the elite into two teams, set up ambushes every five miles, hide in the bushes on the bank of the river, and then personally lead the army to retreat in the direction of Huilongtan.

Sure enough, as Chen Wenzhou expected, the men and horses who robbed the camp refused to give up and continued to pursue Shuo Fang's army.

Back to Longtan, the water depth is several zhang, the width is about one or two miles, the river bank is cut off by the Huilongtan and Luliang cliffs here, and the Shuofang army has no way to retreat.

The men and horses who robbed the camp also pursued.

Guo Chenjiao said: "Soldiers! The front is a dead end, there are chasing soldiers behind, the left and right are a death, we can only fight to the death! ”

So he took the lead and led the Shuofang army to fight back.

The soldiers of the Shuofang army all understand that this is already a dead end, and if they don't fight back, there is only one end - death!

Therefore, they all took out the belief that they would die, and launched a counter-charge against the pursuers at any cost.

The men and horses who robbed the camp really couldn't stop this outlaw who was put to death and then came to life, and he was killed.

Especially Guo Chen, who is worthy of being a master of cutting generals, rushed into the enemy's big array by himself, as if entering a no-man's land, and took the heads of two enemy generals in a row, and the military prestige was immediately boosted!

The men and horses who robbed the camp were defeated and retreated!
