Chapter 859: Escape

Wang Feng's order can be said to be both puzzled and disappointed for the commanders of several divisions of the first division, and of course, there is also a trace of helplessness.

When they were killing the enemy, Wang Feng suddenly gave them an order to quickly leave the battle, if there is no doubt, it is all false.

As for the disappointment, it was because the opportunity to kill the enemy and the opportunity to obtain combat merits slipped away from the eyes, so I was disappointed.

As for helplessness, that is, the army commander's order to retreat on his own initiative had to be carried out with a face full of helplessness.

Of course, among all of them, there was one person who was not only not disappointed, but was very excited... That is, the independent battalion influenced Sokoti.

You must know that although Sokti's independent battalion has only been fighting for less than half an hour. However, because of the Tartars in the secret camp, they simply did not have the courage to continue fighting. In a short period of time, more than 1,000 Tartars became prisoners of war in the independent battalion.

You must know that according to Wang Feng's promise to him before the war, as long as he can capture a regiment of prisoners in battle, his independent battalion will be directly expanded into an independent regiment.

And at this moment, with a face full of excitement and expectation, he asked Wang Feng to fulfill his promise.

Therefore, as soon as Suo Keti walked in front of Wang Feng, with a face full of anxiety, he told the situation that the independent battalion could be expanded into an independent regiment.

Regarding Suo Keti's sudden question, Wang Feng, who was about to issue a military order, was stunned at first. Then, there was no reaction for a long time. He didn't expect that his original sentence would be so important in the eyes of Wai Suo Keti.

But. Stunned and stunned. Wang Feng, who knows the importance of these troop surrenders. still gave Suo Keti an affirmative answer for the first time.

Just when Sokoti couldn't help but call out because of his excitement. Wang Feng's words turned around and continued......

"Now, you, Sokoti, are the head of the regiment...... Here, Ben will give you one more promise...... The next task that Ben will give you, as long as you can complete it, even if you don't capture a sufficient number of prisoners, Ben will promote you to division commander. And expand your independent regiment into an independent division...... However, it could not be done. Not only can I not continue to bracket, but it is still unknown whether the head of the regiment can continue to be the leader......"

Wang Feng's words can be said to be both excited and worried for Suo Keti.

Therefore, as soon as Wang Feng's words were finished, Suo Keti suppressed the excitement after his promotion. Then, he looked at Wang Feng with a serious face, waiting for Wang Feng to follow.

Without letting them wait too long, Wang Feng spoke: "You should all know about the evacuation of the Tartar Emperor Taiji from the secret camp with more than 10,000 elites of the Houjin Army. Right now. Your first division and independent regiment have only one task, and that is to catch up with the more than 10,000 elites taken away by Huang Taiji. Exterminate them......"

"The idea of this general is that the first division will immediately divide the troops, take the battalion as a unit, bring enough grenades, ammunition, and dry food to pursue, and the independent regiment, with the company as a unit, will be dispersed to each battalion of the first division, and cooperate with the first division to pursue the elite of the more than 10,000 Houjin army......"

"More than 10,000 Tartar elites who have withdrawn from the secret camp will not expect to wipe them all out...... As long as you can catch up and eat 10,000 people, you will be considered victorious. And Sokti, your independent regiment, can be bracketed into an independent battalion......"

Compared with the elimination of the remaining more than 20,000 remnants in the Tartar secret camp, the elimination of more than 10,000 elite Jin troops is obviously more challenging.

Therefore, as soon as Wang Feng's order was issued, the complicated expressions on the faces of several division commanders were replaced by scorching heat.

If it weren't for Wang Feng still standing in front of them, these division commanders would have rushed back to their troops as soon as possible and began to pursue with their officers and men.

After seeing the reaction of his subordinates, Wang Feng's serious face couldn't help but reveal a smile of satisfaction from the bottom of his heart.

However, for the sake of safety, he still reminded very kindly: "You guys, after the pursuit begins, don't be bent on catching up with the Tartars, and be cautious when you should be cautious......"

"The other is the surrender of the independent regiment that will be assigned to you...... Compared with you, these soldiers know more than we know the mountains beneath our feet, and the Tartars who are fleeing for their lives...... Therefore, in the process of pursuit, we must pay attention to the opinions of these surrendered troops, rather than taking them as decorations......"

The commander of the Independent Regiment, Suo Keti, undoubtedly followed Wang Bo with the guard battalion of the 1st Division.

With a dozen or so former old subordinates, after taking a very serious look at the footprints left by the retreat of the Tartars. A heartfelt smile quickly flashed on his calm and serious face.

Then, he walked quickly to Wang Bo and reported, "Master Wang...... Not surprisingly, the direction of our pursuit must be a big fish in the Houjin army......"

"I looked at the footprints left by the retreat of the Houjin army, the Houjin army we pursued, with a total strength of at least 3,000 people, and left here for less than half an hour......"

"More than 3,000 elite Jin Army ......," Wang Bo subconsciously showed an incredible expression on his face.

Then, a hint of surprise came to his face. Facing his subordinates, he muttered to himself excitedly.

"The commander made it very clear that there were only more than 10,000 Tartars who escaped from the barracks...... More than 10,000 Houjin elites broke through in more than ten directions, and there were only more than 1,000 Tartar......s in one direction."

"And there are more than 3,000 people in front of us, as Suo Keti said, among these Tartars we are pursuing, even if they are not the big men of the Later Jin, they are also the main force of the main force of the Later Jin army......"

"The whole battalion marched in a hurry, caught up with them, and destroyed them...... If we can really meet the Houjin Emperor Taiji, then we are lucky......"

Because it is daytime, plus the mountain roads are ready-made. Even though more than 3,000 Tartars led a war horse laden with food and supplies, their retreat was still fast. Therefore, the Tiger and Leopard Army, which had more than 700 people, chased for an hour, and still did not see the shadow of the retreating Tartar troops.

Just when the faces of the white soldiers of the guard battalion slowly showed an anxious expression.

Suo Keti, who had been walking in front to explore the way, suddenly rushed over.

Before Wang Bo could speak, Suo Keti reported excitedly: "Division commander, some of the materials discarded by the Houjin Army were found earlier...... Through the war, I am sure that the main force of the Houjin Army is still five miles away from us at most......"

Hearing this answer, the anxious expression on Wang Bo's face that had just appeared on his face was immediately swept away.

Facing his subordinates who were also looking forward to him, he decisively ordered: "What are you still doing?" Keep picking up speed...... The main force of the Houjin army is right in front of us, let them go, be careful that our military law is engaged in ......"

After an hour, after the elite of the White Tiger and Leopard Army rushed for another hour, what they saw along the way was far more than the materials left by the Tartars.

Food, which the Tartars could survive on, and even the war horses, became ubiquitous.

It is certain that the Tartars, who were desperate to flee for their lives, also found themselves frantically chasing after them behind them. In order to pursue himself, he even did not hesitate to throw away the limited supplies he carried...... (To be continued......)
