readx;?“ What the? There's an army coming up here at the ferry? ”

Inside the gate of the Goryeo Palace, the pillar who was commanding a battalion of battles and Zhao Hai beside him exclaimed in unison. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Kneeling on the ground was the captain of the observation post who stayed at the ferry, and at this moment the dust on his face was densely covered with traces of sweat, and he was gasping for breath - the distance of eight miles, he had run in less than ten minutes, and if he hadn't wasted time just briefing the monkeys at the foot of the mountain, he would have come faster.

"How many are there?" Zhao Hai couldn't wait for this subordinate to catch his breath, frowned and asked.

"Back to the Zhao brigade, my subordinates rushed back when they saw that they were starting to pull out," the squad leader quickly responded, "It's too late to count...... Look at the ferryboats, there must be three or five thousand people! ”

"Hiss~~"

Zhu Zi and Zhao Hai gasped at the same time again, and the two glanced at each other tacitly, their brows furrowed more and more.

"How could there be a sudden arrival of an army? Isn't it all quiet in the morning? The pillar muttered to himself.

"Pillar," Zhao Hai thought for a while, and looked at the palace guards who were still resisting in front of him, "It seems that we can't keep the back road, and we have to execute Case C immediately!" ”

Zhao Haikou's case C is the most substantial of the three plans planned by the General Staff -- it is the plan to be adopted when the surprise attack fails and falls into a stalemate, or when the rear road is cut off and the danger of being completely annihilated.

If Plan C is adopted, then the pillar must gather the whole army in the shortest possible time, retreat by dirt road southwest of Ganghwa County, reach the west coast, and then go south back to the landing site to board the ship - this means that the operation will be a complete failure, and even most of the soldiers who came to the shelter point on the way may fall into the hands of the enemy!

"Boom! Rumble! ”

With the explosion of two grenades, the cheers of the soldiers were heard in front of them, and without looking at the pillars, they knew that another palace had been conquered, and the small courtyard where Gwanghae-kun was imprisoned was already close at hand!

For the nine points of the mountain, it fell short!

This new phrase that he had just learned for less than a month suddenly flashed in his mind, and he now had the most intuitive feeling - he had a smooth journey to the present, and he was about to be completed, but it came to an abrupt end at this critical moment, wasn't it a failure?

He was not reconciled!

But what if you are unwilling? There are less than 2,000 people on their side, and nearly half of them are the glamorous Korean Qinwang army; And the enemy has six or seven thousand people in the city alone, plus the enemy army that came to help, how can it be tens of thousands; And the battlefield is so narrow, there is a strong city on the mountainside in front, and there are fierce reinforcements in the back, there is almost no room for tossing and turning!

What's even worse is that, according to the plan, when he broke into the palace, the big drama under Jianghua County was about to die down - no, the intermittent cannon sound had stopped for a while; His own reality has been exposed, once the enemy in the city is pressed out, more than 1,000 people who feint will be squeezed into two armies, how can this battle be fought?

"Pillar~~ Pillar!" Seeing that the beads of sweat on the pillar's forehead kept pouring out from under the brim of the pointed iron helmet, but frowning and motionless, Zhao Hai was a little anxious, grabbed his arm and shook it vigorously and shouted, "Hesitation in battle, make it taboo!" …… Should it be hit? Should it be withdrawn? You've got to get an idea as soon as possible! ”

His shout attracted the attention of the officers and men of the first battalion, who had long been suspicious, as if an invisible wind was blowing, and the whole battlefield was quiet one by one, except for the "sigh" of cold arrows fired by those North Korean guards from time to time, the roar of the platoon guns and the roar of grenades could not be heard; The warriors looked out of their hideouts to the place where the pillar was, their eyes full of surprise and confusion intertwined, weaving an invisible net that drained morale, and slowly pressed down on the people.

As a veteran of the battlefield, Zhao Hai was of course very keenly aware of this depressing emotion - now this situation is the most terrible in the battle array, and once the morale is lost, it is likely to be a tragic collapse! That is to say, the Fuliao army has undergone extremely rigorous training, and has the willpower and obedience beyond this era.

This is also the most critical moment to test the ability of the main general to command the battle, whether to fight or withdraw, we must make a choice in the shortest time, and hesitation is precisely the most demoralizing! If a few minutes ago Zhu had a chance to choose to carry out Case C and lead a battalion or even the entire advance team to retreat, now this opportunity has almost been missed - retreating at this time, the first battalion that has lost its soul will infect the entire advance team with the morale of the declining spirit, and the final result is that the wolves will flee back to the seashore, God knows how many people will be left!

Thinking of this, he shook the pillar's strong body violently, and shouted hoarsely, "Wake up! You wake up Lao Tzu! …… Don't think about case C and case D! Hurry up and give it a go to survive! ”

Give it a go?!

These four words crossed the pillar's mind like lightning, and he suddenly remembered a principle that Gongzi Ye had said many times in his tactics class: fighting is sometimes the same as gambling, the bet is on both sides, and the chips are the lives of the soldiers!

The so-called "the brave who meet on a narrow road wins" is a state of mind - those who cower and hesitate, even if they have enough chips, they can't compete with those who go forward bravely and look at death as home!

This is the truth of "survive but not live, but die but live", I don't know how many times I have said it, why did I forget it all at the critical moment!

After thinking about it thoroughly, the pillar frowned, shook off Zhao Hai's big hand, tore off the pointed iron helmet on his head, grabbed the fire gun on the ground, and walked out, roaring with a hideous face, "Brothers, follow me!" Platoon guns beat these bitch North Koreans to death! …… Hurry up! After robbing the people, we will go down the mountain, and after joining up with the second and third battalions, we will clean up the turtle grandchildren! …… Isn't it just a little reinforcement, count it as a ball! ”

His act of taking the lead immediately raised the morale of the first battalion, and everyone followed with shouts, and the sound of gunfire and explosions suddenly became much more violent than just now.

"Lao Zhao, you go down first and gather up the brothers under the mountain," after walking out for a while, the pillar turned his head and commanded Zhao Hai, "Wait for our good news!" ”

Zhao Hai nodded with satisfaction - he knew that after this tempering, the pillar had grown a lot, and it should not be a big problem to be on his own in the future.

After taking the reins, Zhao Hai turned over and got on his horse and galloped towards the bottom of the mountain; In a short time, they had already arrived at the predetermined assembly point - after the feint mission was completed, the remaining brothers had already withdrawn from the city of Ganghwa County, gathered here and waited.

Before he arrived, Zhao Hai found that something was wrong-Zhao Songjie, Li Chenghuan and the commander of the second battalion of the Qin Wangjun greeted him from a distance, but his face was as black as the bottom of the pot.

When the three of them got closer, their words made Zhao Hairu fall into an ice cave! (To be continued.) )
