Chapter 730: The Battle of the Breakout

Under Fu Gongyou's words, all the generals of the Jianghuai army lowered their heads, they didn't know that there was this possibility, but they all subconsciously ignored it. Hearing the news of the fall of Danyang, each of them wanted to return to their hometown to see how the situation was. That's why they gave the order to break through to the auxiliary prince.

Fu Gongyou's eyes swept over and looked at the expressions of the generals one by one. He stepped forward and patted the shoulders of several cronies and generals, and then put a senior general's arm and said categorically: "The Zhao army has set up a heavy siege in the south, and there is at least a seventy or eighty percent possibility, but the morale of the soldiers in the city is already slackened, if the Zhao army continues to attack like this, Xuzhou City will be broken in only three or five days." So instead of being trapped here, I think it's better to fight your way out of the siege and go back to Jiangdong! ”

When Fu Gongyou said this, his face showed determination.

When the generals saw Fu Gongyou's decision to break through, they all showed surprised and happy looks.

Fu Gongyou raised his fist and said, "Kill back to Jiangdong!" ”

The generals were moved by his slogan to go back to Jiangdong, and they all said loudly: "Kill back to Jiangdong!" ”

After the current agreement, Fu Gongyou and the soldiers agreed to break through the three watches tonight.

The fighting outside the city continued, and after a day of fierce fighting in Xuzhou City, the Zhao army withdrew its troops in the evening.

In the fierce battle on this day, the Zhao army broke through to the city head several times, the city wall of the north city was once lost, and in the afternoon, the soldiers of the Jianghuai army guarding the city in the west city were the subordinates of the original Wang Xiongdan, mutiny on the city wall on the spot, and more than 200 people defected. Zhao Jun almost took Xicheng and ended the battle.

In the end, the Jianghuai army barely held the city of Xuzhou, but both the generals and soldiers believed that under such a fierce attack by the Zhao army. I am not sure about continuing to hold on to Xuzhou City.

Night finally fell. Fu Gongyou's Jianghuai army, which was about to break through, gathered in the south of the city, and set up false torches on the city wall. The straw man bewitched the Zhao soldiers.

At the time of the third watch, the south gate of Xuzhou City was quietly opened, and the Jianghuai soldiers in the urn city were immediately killed, and then nearly 30,000 Jianghuai soldiers and soldiers swarmed away from the south city gate.

First, 3,000 Jianghuai troops rode in front to explore the road, and the battle of the Jianghuai army out of the city immediately alarmed the Zhao army. It didn't take long for thousands of Zhao cavalry to arrive from the city gates on both sides of the east and west sides with torches. The sound of horses' hooves was deafening, and the banner of Qin characters was eye-catching under the firelight. Everyone in the Jianghuai army knew that it was Qin Qiong, a famous general of the Zhao army, who came to stop it.

The light cavalry of the Jianghuai army did not hesitate, and immediately stepped forward to intercept the harassment of the cavalry of the Zhao army, covering the main force of foot soldiers who came out of the gate of the southern city.

Just when the main force of the Jianghuai Army broke through, Li Chongjiu and the generals were already watching the battle in the big camp in the southeast.

"As expected, the main force of the Jianghuai Army really broke through tonight." Yu Shinan said on the side.

"However, the Jianghuai army marched up and down in a tight and orderly manner, and there was no panic at all, Qin Qiong's cavalry broke through several times, trying to disrupt the Jianghuai army's formation, but they were unsuccessful." Xue Wanche, the general of the Armed Guards, analyzed. "It seems to be two completely different teams from the Jianghuai army that looks very badly in the city during the day."

Li Chongjiu looked at it for a while and said: "The art of war is cloudy, don't intercept when you return to the division, the Jianghuai army breaks through and returns." Unlike when defending a city, the morale of the soldiers was bound to be high. At this time, if our army forcibly intercepts it head-on, it will be considered successful with the current strength. The losses are also enormous. That's why I have to lay three ambushes and harass layer upon layer. Not only exhausted the determination of the Jianghuai army to break through, but also annihilated his living force. Finally, when the enemy army was exhausted, it was annihilated in a battle and pacified Jianghuai. ”

Hearing Li Chongjiu say this, all the generals said together: "Your Majesty is wise! ”

At this time, the drums in the direction of Dongying on the side were loud, and it turned out that Wang Mahan, the general of the Zhao army, led 10,000 foot soldiers to attack the flank of the Jianghuai army. The Jianghuai soldiers under the city of Xuzhou fled in a hurry, and divided their troops to resist.

Wang Mahan's 10,000 foot soldiers did not intend to forcibly shake the frontal edge of the Jianghuai army at this time, but only attacked on the flanks and behind them, consuming the strength of the Jianghuai army.

The drums in the south of Xuzhou City sounded and the hustle and bustle resounded all night.

When it was almost dawn, it was on a hill in the south of Xuzhou City.

Fu Gongyou stood with his hands in his hands, staring in the direction of the north. Behind the hill where Fu Gongyou is located, there are faint fires, which are all the Jianghuai soldiers who broke through from Xuzhou City and are seizing the time to rest. Pursued by the Zhao general, Wang Mahan, the men and horses were scattered, or the soldiers were left behind, and they were now gathering here to try to regroup.

And to the north where Fu Gongyou continued to gaze, he could see countless torches lighting up the field, as if a fire dragon was shuttling between the plains and mountains, which was obviously the pursuer of the Zhao army, biting the throat of the Jianghuai army tightly.

Fu Gongyou was wearing a sheepskin jacket, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked very tired, but he also stood upright on the top of the mountain.

Fu Gongyou looked at it for a long time, and finally said to himself: "It seems that Zuo Laosan and Zhou's blind men and horses can't come to join our army." ”

The cronies on the side of the general said: "Fu Gong, this is no way, Zhao Junjue after our army broke through, like a wild dog, chased behind, and couldn't get rid of it, after fighting all night, many brothers were gone, as for Zuo Laosan and Zhou Blind, they were the last to go out of the city, and now the two of them should not be in the chaos." ”

Fu Gongyou looked back and said: "There is no way, we can only avenge the two brothers in the future, we can only protect the Chinese army now, the brothers in the recruitment camp are the elite of our army, and the Danyang soldiers are the starting team of our Jianghuai army, these two troops must be firmly protected by the Chinese army, and break through with me." As for the other centaurs, how much can be highlighted, even if they are all gone, it is not a pity. ”

Speaking of this, Fu Gongyou said loudly: "Those who have done great things since ancient times, where will there be no sacrifice, everyone, as long as the Shangzheng camp and the Danyang army are here, my Fu Gongyou can make a comeback at any time." ”

Fu Gongyou's words exuded an incomparable confidence, as if like a morning star faintly lit up in the sky at this time, illuminating the hearts of the generals of the Jianghuai army. Although after a night of hard fighting, they ran for several miles in a row, but everyone's spirits were lifted again.

A senior general said: "Yes, what is this in front of you, in the past, we switched from Shandong to the north and south, was there still a lot?" The officers and soldiers chased after us dozens of times, didn't they get rid of them again and again? It's the same this time, let's tell those northern barbarians of Zhao that they can't win against our Jianghuai army. ”

When the general said this, the soldiers on the left and right cheered together, and the morale of the soldiers was instantly boosted.

Fu Gongyou looked at the north and said, "Okay, before the sun comes out, let's walk another ten miles, and after getting rid of the chasing soldiers, we will make food and fill our stomachs!" ”

"No!" The generals agreed. (To be continued!)
