Chapter 1390: Rear Dynamics
Queen Silan sighed, "The situation is much worse than we thought! Just received a scout report! Zhang Liao led more than 100,000 cavalry, only more than 50 miles away from here! ”
"What? How is this possible? Deloff was shocked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Emperor Silan said decisively: "Now is not the time to discuss the reason, order all armies to retreat immediately!" ”
Delov sighed in extreme disappointment, and retreated.
Queen Slan looked at the top of the tent and muttered, "Could it be that the gods have given up on us?!" ”
"General, will the people of the Jin Kingdom be fooled?" The general asked with some concern.
Zhang Liao frowned and said, "Learn too!" If we don't fall for it, we'll have to assault! The general nodded firmly.
Not long after, the scout in front rushed over, rolled off his horse, and reported excitedly: "General, the army of the Jin Kingdom has retreated!" ”
All the generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Zhang Liao's solemn expression was also a little more relaxed, "Pass the order, the whole army will attack!" ”
The generals were stunned, and one of the generals asked in surprise: "Attack?" ”
Zhang Liao smiled and nodded.
Hundreds of thousands of Jin troops rushed towards the Kelett fortress, a little chaotic, and many soldiers could not hide their panic, such a scene was in stark contrast to the scene of the bloody battle with the Wei army's Fourth Army not long ago.
Silan couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness as he looked at the scene in front of him.
A general galloped to Empress Silan's side and whispered with an anxious face: "Empress, the Wei army's iron cavalry is chasing!" ”
Silan frowned, "How far is it?" ”
"More than thirty miles!"
Empress Silan was shocked, "So fast? ”
The general nodded with a heavy face, and Si Lan hurriedly ordered: "Order the three armies to speed up!" ”
"Yes!" The general rode down with a bang.
Silan turned his head to the general Delof beside him and said, "General,"
Delov nodded, "I know how to do it!" ”
He saluted Queen Silan, waved his hand, and raised his voice: "The cavalry team comes with me!" ”
Delov broke away from the brigade with all 50,000 cavalry.
There was a look of absolute darkness on their faces, and they thought they would never come back.
Half an hour later, the Wei scouts flew in to report: "General, 50,000 cavalry of the Jin State are here!" ”
The ministers will be surprised, and one of the ministers will be surprised; "Have they discovered our truth?"
Zhang Liao shook his head and said affirmatively: "No!" If they had discovered our falsehood, it would have been impossible for only these 50,000 cavalry to turn around! ”
smiled, "It looks like they really think that our hundreds of thousands of cavalry are here!" ”
"General, what should I do? Do you want to fight? ”
Zhang Liao said categorically: "Fight!" ”
The cavalry of the two sides fought fiercely on the edge of a small forest, and the frightened Jin cavalry was at a disadvantage as soon as they engaged, while the Wei iron cavalry was bravely charged under the leadership of Zhang Liao, although their numbers were not large, but the light cavalry units of the second and fifth legions were quite brave.
Zhang Liao brandished a big knife and rode his horse to kill, no one could stop him, and the general of the Jin State, Delov, came up to fight with Zhang Liao for more than ten rounds, was defeated, was hit hard, and escaped under the desperate protection of his own soldiers.
Soon after the battle, the Jin people were surprised to find that the Wei army was not as many as they thought, and there were many fewer men and horses than their own, but at this time, the entire Jin cavalry army was retreating, and they wanted to counterattack but could not do anything.
The 50,000 Jin cavalry were routed and fled in a hasty direction to the northwest, and the Wei army's iron cavalry pursued them until the Kelett fortress.
When Queen Silan learned that the light cavalry of the Wei army was less than 30,000 people, she was so angry that she vomited blood on the spot, scolded the scout officer, and ordered someone to drag the scout officer down and behead him, but Queen Silan's anger had not subsided, and she ordered someone to arrest all the scouts who had previously carried out the reconnaissance and alert mission, and beheaded them all.
Although Empress Silan's approach is a little more fierce, it is also understandable, this battle is too important for the people of the Jin Kingdom, if they can win, the sharp spirit of the Wei army will be hit, and at the same time, the morale of the people of the Jin Kingdom will be greatly boosted, which is extremely important for whether they can hold the battle line in the future.
Zhang Liao led the army to Cao Ren's military camp, and Cao Ren led his soldiers out of the camp to greet him. When I saw Zhang Liao, I couldn't help but sigh and sigh.
In the big tent.
Cao Ren said with a look of shame: "It's just because I am greedy for merit that tens of thousands of elites died in vain, and I have no shame to see Your Majesty!" ”
Zhang Liao comforted: "General Cao doesn't have to blame himself too much!" Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers! ”
Cao Ren shook his head with a wry smile, clenched his fists and said, "Where do I still have the face to lead the army, leave the matter here to Wen Yuan!" ”
Zhang Liao said: "General Cao is relieved for the time being!" How to deal with your own Majesty's decision! General Cao's current business is to take care of his injuries! ”
The once glorious Dajin Empire is now in turmoil, and the people of all ethnic groups gathered under the banner of the Jin Kingdom are terrified and confused, many people are desperate and want to commit suicide, and there are people fleeing everywhere, and some barbarians who were originally subservient to the Jin State are ready to move.
The sights turn to the Iberian Peninsula.
The Senate rebels besieged the Roman army besieging Lusitania for a long time, and John Leck, at the suggestion of the Wei envoys, simply gave up the attack and suppressed the Roman remnants of Lusitania with a part of the army, and at the same time led the main force north.
The Senate of more than 100,000 rebels stormed the southern pass of Nar Pradesh, at this time the Roman army defending Nar Pradesh had only 40,000 local garrisons, in order to resist the attack of the Senate rebels, the entire Gaul province and the two nearby provinces were mobilizing reserves.
The battle lasted for several days, and the Senate rebels paid a great price, but the important pass of Narbang remained in the hands of the Romans.
The progress of the English rebels was much smoother, they sacked important ports and cities along the coast with the main force of the artillery fleet, and the insufficient Roman defenders could not do anything with them, and then defeated a fleet sent by the Romans in the sea off the city of Rotomagus, in fact, the Romans were too anxious, they should not send such a fleet at this time that was obviously inferior to the opponent's fleet.
After annihilating the Roman fleet, Alayan's confidence was over, and he led his army to land on the coast of Rotomagus, and captured the city of Rotomagus in one go, which was the second time he had taken the city, and unlike the last time, he felt that this time he might not have to retreat.
Upon learning of the loss of the city of Rotomagus, Caracalla immediately mobilized nearby garrisons and reserves to meet him, and at the same time ordered the general Khedira to go to the north to take the town.
On the other hand, after the Roman general Seth captured Dura Europos, he led a million-strong army towards Qinxifeng, and half a month later, the army arrived at the city.
Seth looked at the city in front of him with a solemn face, although the strength of the two sides was several times different, but he didn't think that the next battle would be easy, the previous desperate bloody battle of the Sixth Legion had already made him feel broken, and the city in front of him not only had nearly 300,000 troops, but also an absolute elite known as the first in the world, the first legion of the Wei army, Seth didn't dare to imagine what kind of losses the first legion of the Wei army would cause to his own army.
"General, attack?" General Custer asked.
Seth glanced at the Wei army's battle flag fluttering on the city gate, frowned and shook his head, "Order all the troops to rest for a day first." ”
"Yes!"
Seth returned to the tent and immediately received a summons, and Seth smiled indifferently after reading it, for the first time in so many days.
Seth glanced at the generals under his tent and said with a smile: "The 600,000 garrison and 200,000 reserve troops have been assembled, and they will arrive here soon!" And five hundred catapults! ”
The generals were overjoyed.
The subordinate general Custer said thoughtfully: "In this way, Your Majesty is very determined!" ”
Seth nodded and frowned, "The current situation is actually not optimistic for us!" Don't look at the absolute advantage in front of us, but this advantage is like a drop of water in the desert, fleeting! What's next? ”
The generals exchanged glances, and the general Kampal replied: "The morale of the soldiers is high! ”
Seth frowned, "Tell the truth! ”
Kampal hesitated for a moment and sighed, "The morale of the soldiers is a little worrying!" They don't have much confidence in the battle that follows! Only a few Spartan legions were in a different situation, they had high morale and were looking forward to a contest with the first army of the Wei army! ”
Seth thought for a moment and stood up, "Come down there with me!" ”
Coming out of the big tent, Seth suddenly stopped and asked, "I asked you to keep a close eye on the direction of the wings, did you do it?" ”
Custer replied, "50,000 cavalry have been sent to take up this role!" ”
Seth said categorically: "50,000 cavalry is not enough!" The siege cavalry is not very useful, transfer 120,000 cavalry to prepare the two wings for battle, and at the same time send enough scouts to monitor the two wings! ”
"Yes!"
The gaze turned to Qinxi Fengcheng.
Zhao Yun stood on the city gate tower and looked at the lights outside the city, and the scene was like stars in the sky.
"The enemy is coming in a million, and the follow-up troops don't know how many there are! I'm afraid this battle will be very difficult! The general Yan Yan was a little touched.
Zhao Yun instructed the generals: "Later, you will go to the defense areas you are responsible for and inspect again to ensure that nothing goes wrong!" ”
"Yes!"
At this time, a herald rushed to Zhao Yun.
"General, the flying pigeon biography of the general of Zhengnan!" The so-called general of Zhengnan is Ma Chao.
Zhao Yun took the book, read it, thought for a while, and ordered: "Tell Meng Qi, don't act rashly first!" ”
"Yes!"
The battle on the front line is in full swing, and the rear is also a busy scene.
The convoys from the big warehouses from all over the country continued to come to the west, and Sima Yi, who was the chief of the Western Regions, was very busy.
Sun Ce led 100,000 reinforcements to the Green Ridge Fortress, and almost all of the 100,000 reinforcements under Sun Ce were not Han Chinese, but the servant army assembled by East and West Guishan. (To be continued.) )
