readx; Although Wei Hong said this, it came from within, but in Qin Qiong's ears, it was regarded as Wei Hong's words of comfort, and he excused Qin Qiong in front of all the soldiers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Qin Qiong is also a person who can afford to let go, this is not the time to be polite and flattering, or to focus on the battle situation. Qin Qiong's gaze swept to the battlefield, and he said in a calm tone: "The Holy Lord even sent the Jade Dragon Guard, which shows the importance attached to this battle. There is a Jade Dragon Guard in Horsehair Mountain to break the siege, and it is definitely a sure victory, but when will the battle be resolved? ”

Wei Hong did not answer this question, but took out the Jade Dragon Guard's talisman from his arms, handed it to Qin Qiong with both hands, and said respectfully: "General, Wei Hong is still inexperienced, and his control of the war situation is not as good as that of the general." Now temporarily transfer the command of the Jade Dragon Guard to the general, and ask the general to hold the overall situation and defeat the enemy army! ”

Qin Qiong looked at the talisman, and then at Wei Hong, he didn't reach out to take it, but put his hands behind his back, stared at the battlefield, and said seriously: "You can fight this battle like this, the general of the Tang Dynasty, there are only a handful of people who can compare with you." The Holy Admiral's Jade Dragon Guard Fu handed over to you is a great trust in you, how can you give up this trust to the old man? ”

Now that it has come to this point, Wei Hong has nothing to be hypocritical. Immediately put the talisman back into his arms, and assigned eight Jade Dragon Guard heavy infantry to protect Qin Qiong inch by inch. Then he turned over and got on his horse and yelled at Liu Cheng: "Liu Cheng, pass on my order, don't entangle with the enemy again, the regular cavalry retreats, and the Yulongwei heavy infantry detours behind the enemy to cut off its rear road." The rest of the heavy cavalry will be in one place and launch a final charge against the enemy, so be sure to settle the battle before it falls! ”

"Order!" Although Liu Cheng was born as a mountain bandit, he also had some words with Yulongwei, and his words and deeds already had the style of a general.

After Liu Cheng conveyed Wei Hong's order to the various departments, the cavalry guarding the rear of the enemy army began to move from the right flank to the city gate. The heavy infantry, which was facing the frontal attack, began to divide its troops into two directions, detouring to the rear of the enemy from the left and right directions. Xiao He, who was on the low building in the rear of the enemy, saw this situation, rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said to the strategist beside him: "The enemy army is going to make the last move to outflank and encircle and annihilate!" Send me an order to send 3,000 infantry, divided into two routes, to block the enemy infantry, and absolutely not let the enemy form an encirclement! ”

After that, just as the strategist was about to give the order, Xiao He suddenly stopped the strategist, rolled his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Wait first, the city gate has been blocked, our army is categorically unable to break through from the main gate, and the cavalry outside the city cannot break through to the rescue." This defeat is already a certainty, and it is useless to struggle more! ”

"What do you mean, boss?" The strategist is very short, and his head only reaches Xiao He's chest, which is very different from the image of the Khitan man in his impression. Because of this image, when the strategists speak, they always feel like chickens and dogs.

Xiao He's eyes looked at the rear cavalry who were preparing to evacuate, and the heavy infantry that was moving to the rear in front. After a short period of thought, Xiao He nodded heavily, and said in a loud voice: "Pass my order, the enemy cavalry retreats to half the waist, and when the enemy infantry has not arrived, take advantage of this gap and retreat with all the staff back, be sure to break through the enemy encirclement and retreat to the city!" ”

Hearing this, the strategist's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Boss, do you mean to retreat into the city and fight in the streets?" ”

Xiao He shook his head very dryly, his face was a little ugly: "The enemy army has been blocking the rear of our army, just because they are afraid that we will break into the city and fight with them in the streets. Once we enter the city, they will definitely not rush to attack, as long as they besiege the city, cut off water and food, they can besiege our army to death! At this moment, the only way to retreat from the back gate and get out of this battle is the best policy! ”

Although the strategists were a little unwilling, they were helpless, after all, this battle was fought like this, which was contrary to the original grand strategy. In addition, the reason why he dared to attack Horsehair Mountain was because he was determined that the Tang Dynasty army would not be able to defeat his own side, and the Tang Dynasty had to deal with several forces at the same time, so he couldn't spare the spirit to control Horsehair Mountain. And now, suddenly killing such a strong army as Yulongwei, and with Wei Hong, a strategist who has won consecutive battles, there is no need to fight this battle.

The strategist sighed, and could only follow Xiao He's order to convey it, and after a while, the order spread throughout the army. When the heavy cavalry moved to the halfway point of the battlefield, the Khitan army, which had been entangled endlessly, suddenly retreated to the rear in an orderly manner. With such a large army retreating in spite of the pursuit and the casualties, Rao is Wei Hong had no choice but to watch the enemy retreat into the city. The generals under his command wanted to lead the troops to pursue, but Wei Hong hurriedly stopped him, and sighed: "Don't touch that moldy head!" ”

Qin Qiong next to him, seeing this situation, did not say too much, but turned his head to look at Wei Hong, and asked lightly: "In this way, how should this battle be fought?" ”

Wei Hong's eyes were like torches, staring at the Khitan army that disappeared into the city, and instead of answering, he asked: "General, do you know who the commander of the Khitan army is this time?" ”

Qin Qiong replied without thinking: "This person's surname is Xiao Minghe, he has a distant relative of the Khitan lord, he is a hussar general, he has been fighting on the battlefield since he was a child, and he is extremely experienced. The old man has also fought with him many times before, and he is ashamed to lose more than he wins, and so far he has not completely defeated him once! ”

Hearing this, Wei Hong nodded, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said lightly: "Since there is such a powerful leader, it is only natural that we can't fight him." It was expected that Xiao He would have seen early on that we did not dare to fight in the streets, and he was not stupid, knowing that the street battles were beneficial in a short period of time, but after a long time, it was easy to be besieged and killed by our army. This time, he forcibly withdrew into the city, undoubtedly wanting to transfer from the city to the back gate, withdraw into the territory of our Datang, and then go around the horsehair mountain to the outside of the country and withdraw from the battle. ”

Qin Qiong could naturally see Xiao He's tactics, although he already knew what Wei Hong was thinking in his heart, he still asked with a smile: "Do you watch them escape, or do you leave the heavy infantry to block the back city gate, and then the heavy cavalry will withdraw from the front city gate and block them outside the border?" ”

From the words of Qin Qiong's words, it seems that Qin Qiong is more inclined to the latter, but looking at the essence on the surface, it can be found that Qin Qiong agrees with the former more.

Wei Hong finally turned his head to look at Qin Qiong, and smiled very boringly: "General, when is it, you are still testing me?" This battle knocked out the sharp teeth of the Khitan, scattered the ambitions of the Khitan, and achieved the goal, and there was no need to entangle with such a powerful country as the Khitan. Compared with killing the Khitan army and causing greater revenge, it is better to concentrate all your energy on the battlefield in the southwest and rush to the aid of Longyoudao.
