Chapter 437: Slipping away

"In the past three days, on the wall directly opposite us, there have been three commanders!" Hu Zequan glared at Ai Jiaxin, "What do you say this means?" ”

Ai Jiaxin gasped, of course he knew what it meant, "Is it that the first few were killed in the siege battle in front, and the sons are still very brave!" He asked inquiringly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Hu Zequan smiled bitterly and sat down in his chair, "But today, I saw the commander from the first day again, these people are just some small captains, but they can actually take turns to fight in the city within three days, what does this mean?" His voice grew louder.

Ai Jiaxin's face slowly became solemn, "There are many more soldiers and horses in Qinzhou City than we imagined!" ”

"Then you say, why are they deliberately showing weakness?" Hu Zequan seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be asking Ai Jiaxin, "In this way, the strength of Qinzhou City is at least not weaker than my troops and horses, not to mention forty or fifty thousand people, if there are really so many, with the strength of the Beijing division and the left and right battalions, they go out of the city to fight, we are by no means opponents, why should they not be able to defend it, let us trap them for several months." ”

"Unless they have a great plan, they don't even look at our soldiers and horses!" Ai Jiaxin continued.

As soon as the words came out, both of them saw the look of horror in each other's eyes, and Hu Zequan jumped up violently, "Shizi, Blue Mountain!" ”

The elite of the 100,000 Southern Army under the command of Qin Kaiyuan and Blue Mountain has broken through Jinzhou and penetrated deep into Minzhou. These 100,000 elites are the capital of the Southern Army, and once something happens, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Immediately inform Shizi and General Lan that the whole army should stop advancing, and it is best to retreat immediately! Hurry up, come on, come on, get ready for pen and ink! Hu Zequan shouted.

"Commander Hu!" Ai Jiaxin pressed Hu Zequan down, "Commander, when the prince came some time ago, he was already quite dissatisfied with us, and we were attacking Qinzhou at this time, at this time, writing such a letter, the prince will suspect that we are deliberately alarmist because we can't beat Qinzhou City, he won't believe us!" ”

"Whether the prince believes it or not, I will go back, in addition, I will send someone to report to King Ning, Xiao Yuanshan's plans are very big, he must have set a trap in Minzhou." Hu Zequan said insistently.

"Commander, if there is no evidence, even King Ning will not believe it." Ai Jiaxin Road.

Hu Zequan slowly calmed down, "You're right, we want evidence, but where does the evidence come from?" He put his hand on his forehead and thought hard.

Ai Jiaxin looked at Hu Zequan in deep thought, and didn't dare to disturb, so he could only sit there, thinking in his heart that if this was the case, the consequences....For a while, cold sweat flowed on his back, and his clothes were soaked in a moment.

"I've got a way!" Hu Zequan raised his head suddenly.

"Tell me about it, Commander!" Ai Jiaxin's eyes also lit up.

"Tonight, you immediately led 10,000 troops to quietly retreat to Niutou Mountain to ambush, tomorrow during the day I will still lead the army to attack, and in the evening, I suddenly retreated with the whole army, you say, if Xiao Yuanshan finds out that our army has withdrawn, what will he do?" A smile appeared on Hu Zequan's face.

Ai Jiaxin's eyes lit up, "He will definitely guess that we must know something, in order to prevent the news from leaking, he will definitely go out of the empty nest to chase us, and I can hit him hard in the middle of Niuniu Mountain!" ”

"Not bad!" Hu Zequan nodded and said, "Although we can't change the overall situation, we can find out how many enemy troops there are in Qinzhou City, if it is really as we expected, then the other party must have set a trap in Minzhou, this is an indisputable fact." With this evidence, the prince will definitely believe us, as long as we retreat in time to ensure that the main force is safe, we will lose Jinzhou at most, and we can still form a tug-of-war with them in Qinzhou. ”

"The Commander is absolutely right!" Ai Jiaxin admired the authenticity.

"We retreat to Fuping Mansion, we can ensure that the prince retreats without danger, although the city of Fuping Mansion is not as high and steep as Qinzhou City, but there is Niutou Mountain on the left for horns, and there is fog on the right to cross the river without the opponent attacking, we turn to attack, but look at that Xiao Yuanshan may break through the city we guard!" Hu Zequan slapped the table, and said happily.

"Okay, Commander Hu, then I will organize the army to secretly ambush Niutou Mountain."

"You must be careful, don't show the rumors, remember, Ma Han's grass man, only take your own people away, don't alarm others, and leave a certain number of people in the camp to bluff, don't let the other party see the flaws!" Hu Zequan admonished.

"Don't worry, Commander!" Ai Jiaxin turned and left.

On the second day, the sun was shining, the spring breeze was pleasant, if it was not for the war, it must be a good day to step into spring, and the literati and scholars may have more articles and poems to be released, but at the moment, it is a different scenery of the golden iron horse. The dense pillars of smoke rushed straight into the clouds, almost obscuring the sun, the arrows were like flying locusts, the stones were like rain, blood was splashing, and the earth-shattering shouts and screams of human beings killing each other were deafening.

Hu Zequan's command art was obviously a notch higher than that of Ai Jiaxin, and the southern army attacked the city wall significantly more times than in previous days, and it lasted longer, although they were all driven down in the end, the intensity of the battle was sharply higher than a notch.

"Old thief Hu is true!" Xiao Yuanshan said with a smile: "Today, I see that he is really smart, but the times are also powerful, he is going to hate Qinzhou City after all." ”

"With General Xiao here, how could he be lucky?" Zhou Tong said in a funny way.

"Huh?" Xiao Yuanshan suddenly looked at the front gate city wall, "Which one is the one who commands the front battle today, it doesn't seem to be the captain yesterday?" ”

"The general's eyes are like torches!" Zhou Tong said with a smile, "Yesterday it was one of my subordinates who commanded the battle in the Qianmen Tower, but today it is General Wan's subordinate, and the two of us have been taking turns to send troops to fight in the past few days, just for fear that the soldiers will be suffocated in the city, so let them all come to see the blood and boost their morale!" ”

Xiao Yuanshan's face slowly changed, "You mean you've been fighting in rotation for the past few days?" ”

"That's right!" Zhou Tong smiled, "General, is there anything wrong?" We have 50,000 people in the city, and if the soldiers don't come up and fight a dozen, I'm afraid that our morale will be bad! ”

Xiao Yuanshan slapped the railing of the city tower and said angrily: "It's not proper, this is a big mistake, you, why don't you tell me?" ”

Zhou Tong was inexplicable, "General, what does this have to do with this?" ”

Xiao Yuanshan was so angry that he said angrily: "My General Zhou, can't you think of it? You change troops every day, and if Hu Ze is all hearted, he will definitely find this flaw. He can deduce the number of troops in our city based on the frequency of your change of guards, you two bastards, it's a big deal! ”

Zhou Tong was shocked, "General, although we have changed our soldiers, we have not changed our flags, and he may not find out." ”

Xiao Yuanshan took a deep breath, "If it were someone else, maybe he wouldn't have paid attention to this little flaw, but Hu Zequan is old and refined, how can he not pay attention, don't have illusions, tell Wan Lun, prepare to go out of the city to fight, if my expectations are good, Hu Lao Thief is going to run away!" ”

Hu Zequan, who was asserted by Xiao Yuanshan to run, seemed to have no intention of running at all, but the offensive became more and more intense, Zhou Tong glanced at the increasingly fierce battlefield suspiciously, turned around and walked towards the city, no matter what, it is always not wrong to prepare with both hands.

The battle lasted until noon, when Hu Zequan was still reluctant to retreat. But what Xiao Yuanshan didn't expect was that he thought that Hu Zequan would secretly withdraw his troops, at least at night, but as soon as the other party retreated from the battlefield, he directly crossed his own camp, and even the big camp was not cleaned up, and a team of soldiers and horses quickly escaped into the distance.

Xiao Yuanshan clenched his teeth, his lips were broken, and he didn't notice the slightest trace of blood, the other party's arrangement was too unexpected for him, and right now, Wan Lun's team had not yet been assembled!

"Pursue, bite them!" Xiao Yuanshan hated to order.

Zhou Tong's face turned pale, he never thought that the slightest flaw would be tightly grasped by the enemy, "General, General Wan has only gathered 10,000 troops!" ”

"Chase!" Xiao Yuanshan shouted, "Even if he dies with 10,000 people, he will entangle Hu Zequan for me, and I can't let him escape!" At this time, Xiao Yuanshan's heart was full of remorse, he was too careless, he should have personally commanded the battle, a small accident could lead to the collapse of the entire plan, if Hu Zequan ran away, it means that the other party has seen through his own arrangement, if he has already stepped into the trap Ning Wang Shizi and Lan Shan retracted, then everything will be over, and all the sacrifices in the early stage will be wasted.

"Order, send cavalry troops, tightly block the passage from Qinzhou to Jinzhou and Minzhou, but anyone who passes in these two directions will be killed by me!" Xiao Yuanshan shouted.

Hu Zequan was very proud, retreating like a cloud, leaving no chance for the enemy to take advantage of, he could even imagine Xiao Yuanshan's stunned expression.

"Commander, the enemy is catching up, and we are only about five miles away!" Sentinel Pegasus Newspaper.

"How many people, who are the leading generals?" Hu Zequan asked.

"The other party is under the banner of 10,000 characters, and there are about more than 10,000 people!" The sentinel replied loudly.

"More than 10,000 people, it's Wanlun!" Hu Zequan snorted coldly.

"Commander, the other party only has more than 10,000 people, and the troops are far inferior to ours, take his vote!" A partial general had a fierce face and said viciously.

"Xiao Yuanshan wants to entangle us, ignore him, go, and speed up the retreat." Hu Zequan said with a smile. When he arrived at Niutou Mountain, he had more opportunities to eat some of his men and horses, and then retreated to Fuping. It's not a good opportunity right now.

The southern army spread its feet and ran forward desperately. Hu Zequan personally led a group of men and horses to break the rear behind.

Wan Lun's heart was full of remorse at this time, what it was like to watch the cooked duck fly away, he now realized that the old thief Hu was as cunning as a fox, as long as I caught up with you, I would definitely cut you into seventeen or eighteen pieces to vent his heart.
