"What's up ahead?"

The army stopped in front of a river, Lu Heng looked at the mountains and forests on the other side of the river, and asked Zhang Muzhi.

"This is White Rock Beach." Zhang Muzhi said with a solemn face, "Dashuai, the river beach here has a wide field of vision, but the mountains and forests on the other side are dense, so it is a good place for ambushes." ”

"So, this is it?" Lu Heng's expression froze.

"Eight, nine is not far from ten." Zhang Muzhi said, "If I were the main general of the enemy army, I would have divided my troops to copy our back road at this time." And ......"

Zhang Muzhi pointed to a high point on the opposite bank that could overlook the entire river beach, and then said: "Set up a few cannons there, you can cover the entire river beach." ”

Lu Heng turned his head and said solemnly: "From now on, you have full authority to command the troops, including me, and also obey your command." ”

Leave professional things to professional people to do, Lu Heng will not point fingers at such a time.

"Yes!" Zhang Muzhi saluted, and then his face turned solemn: "Dashuai, the enemy's goal is very clear, that is, to take the life of Dashuai." So they'll definitely find a way to separate you from the army. I will let the second child and Wang Weihu each bring a company to guide and block most of the pursuers for you, all you have to do is to hurry up and rush to Nanyuanpo. ”

Lu Heng nodded: "Okay!" ”

"Dashuai, be careful!" Zhang Muzhi.

"Don't worry." Lu Heng smiled and patted the double guns pinned to his waist, "You teach me to shoot as soon as you have time these days, my marksmanship has improved a lot." ”

Zhang Muzhi sighed: "The handsome man was able to shoot bullets face to face at the beginning, but now he rarely misses the target within two zhang, and he is indeed making rapid progress." ”

"Huh." Lu Heng also smiled politely.

On the opposite side of the mountain forest, an officer was looking at this side with a monocular, and when he saw Lu Heng's army stopped outside the river beach, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that this little kid is not a straw bag, he still has two brushes!" ”

His adjutant sneered: "Division, I didn't expect them to be so stupid to be fooled, the second brigade has already gone to the rear to outflank, and when the cannon sounds later, the front and rear will be flanked, these new melon eggs who have just enlisted in the army will be like headless flies, one charge, we can end the battle!" ”

Shizuo nodded in agreement: "As long as the kid surnamed Lu is in chaos, this battle will be over." ”

The adjutant sneered: "Master, believe it or not, if we fight later, this kid won't last long and will run!" ”

Shi Zuo said: "You can't let him run away, the commander named him and asked for his life." Liu Guang, you will keep an eye on him later, only by killing this surnamed Lu will we not be busy in vain. ”

"Yes, Master!"

"What about those martial artists?"

"These people are not suitable to act in unison with the troops, so I let them act on their own."

"Huh, they seem to be running?" Shi Zuo saw in the telescope that Lu Heng's army had turned around at this moment and was about to go back. The untrained army was in a mess, and there was no array at all.

"So fast?" The adjutant was taken aback, "Marshal, the Second Brigade shouldn't have arrived at this time." ”

"Then let's come first, tell the artillery battalion, come and scare them with a few cannons!"

"Yes!"

Under the command of Zhang Muzhi, the troops were changing from the front army to the rear army, turning around and preparing to retreat.

But because there were too many baggage weapons, the soldiers had only been training for a few days, so it was indeed a mess.

Zhang Muzhi looked at the grassroots officers under his command with an expressionless face and shouted to command the recruits, looking like chickens and dogs were jumping and jumping, and he was indifferent to this.

Lin Xianghou also came to Zhang Muzhi's side at this time, and said with a worried face: "Brigade Commander Zhang, the soldiers are so chaotic, if the enemy attacks at this time, I am afraid that we will not be able to withstand a charge......

Zhang Muzhi said with a smile: "It's just chaos, it's not chaos, how can we lose naturally?" ”

Lin Xianghou was stunned and said, "Does the brigade commander want to lure the enemy?" I'm afraid that the recruits' psychological quality is too poor and they will be self-defeating. ”

"Battalion Commander Lin, we are not trying to lure the enemy," Zhang Muzhi smiled, "We just want to escape." ”

"What?" Lin Xianghou's face changed, and he was about to question, but at this moment, the rumbling cannon suddenly sounded!

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

More than a dozen cannons were fired in unison, and although the shells only landed near the river beach because of the distance, the recruits who had never experienced a battle were still frightened and frightened.

"It's coming!" Zhang Muzhi's spirit perked up, he slapped his horse out, and ran and shouted: "Brothers, don't be afraid, stand up in the array, let's withdraw!" ”

"No war, we retreat!" The prepared heralds followed and shouted over and over again.

Hearing that they would retreat without fighting, the panic of the soldiers was immediately alleviated a lot.

Zhang Mu ran down in a circle, and the mood of the recruits had basically stabilized, and they quickly commanded the following teams under the shouts of the grassroots officers to prepare to retreat.

Zhang Muzhi stopped in front of Lu Heng and began to order: "Lin Xianghou, you take your soldiers to the edge of the river beach to build a position and block the enemy, I want you to hold on for a quarter of an hour, and then immediately retreat and catch up with the troops!" ”

Lin Xianghou was stunned for a moment, and immediately saluted and claimed yes.

"Fan Buyu, you lead the second regiment to lead the baggage battalion first, if you encounter an attack, immediately throw away all the baggage and move closer to the main force of our army."

"Yes!"

"Shao Erwang Weihu, you two protect the marshal and retreat directly to Nanyuanpo, if you encounter an enemy on the way, resolutely block it, and you are not allowed to let go of an enemy!"

"Yes!"

As the officers took orders one after another, the army was in order and quickly began to operate.

Shao Er and Wang Weihu each took a battalion of veterans and escorted Lu Heng to the east quickly.

The soldiers brought by these two men were their former bandit brothers, and although the military discipline was scattered, they were not ambiguous in the battle.

There is also Lin Xianghou, who also brought veterans from a battalion sent to him by Zhang Yi.

Zhang Muzhi's troops who arranged to block the enemy were all veterans who had been on the battlefield, and from this point of view, he really knew that it was difficult for the recruits to take on big tasks.

In the mountains and forests on the opposite bank, the face of the enemy division commander who saw this scene from the telescope changed greatly: "It's not good, they want to run!" ”

"What?" The adjutant was incredulous, "We just fired a few shots!" ”

"Those soldiers are especially mud legs who farm the land, where have you seen this battle?" The division commander turned over his horse, looked around, and shouted: "Brothers, rush up to Lao Tzu, destroy this gang of mud legs, kill!" ”

"Kill!"

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The enemy, under the cover of artillery fire, launched a charge to this side.

Time was pressing, and Lin Xianghou didn't have time to build a tight defense line before the enemy had already come.

When he put the enemy in range, he yelled, "Hit me!" ”

Bang bang!

The guns rang out, and the enemy troops who rushed to the front row immediately fell in rows like wheat harvesting.

"Fight back! Fight back! ”

The enemy officers shouted to command the soldiers and began to counterattack.

The enemy was ten times outnumbered by his own, and in this counterattack, the firepower was suddenly suppressed so that this side could not raise its head, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people died in the first wave of counterattack.

"Steady! Steady! Lin Xianghou yelled, "Pay attention to cover, prepare grenades!" ”

"Battalion commander, there are too many enemies, we can't withstand it!" A company commander with a bullet in the arm shouted.

"If you can't stand it, you have to top it! Hold out for a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, we'll withdraw! Lin Xianghou yelled, which made his subordinates feel a lot more relieved.

Lin Xianghou looked back at the main force that was running away like rabbits, and scolded: "What kind of battle is this!" ”
