Section 13 War

"Marshal, the third prince is here. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Xiangru waved his hand to let the person come down, signaling that he understood.

Before the third prince Yang Yi and his party entered the military tent, the officers smelled a smell of fireworks, and it seemed that the information obtained by the spies was accurate, and the baggage was indeed burned.

Seeing that Li Xiangru did not agree, the third prince Yang Yi called Li Xiangru again, "General Li",

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, you don't need to say it, I know everything" At this time, Li Xiangru's heart was like ashes, the food and grass of the whole army was only enough to eat for three days, and it would take ten days to return to Baibang City, the nearest military town, to obtain food supplies at the earliest.

It's over, everything is over, and the 300,000 soldiers of Dashang, their own wisdom, will all go with the wind.

In an instant, Lee Sang-ru suddenly felt old.

"Yes, there is no way to meet an ambush on the road, this prince can only order the soldiers to burn the grain and grass......" Yang Yi continued.

The disheartened Li Xiangru waved his hand to stop the third prince Yang Yi from continuing, "The third prince, you can't be blamed for this, the old man is to blame, if the old man listened to you and left some people behind, even if it was a thousand, it would never have put my Dashang army in such a situation." ”

Everyone knew in their hearts that the burning of grain and grass had nothing to do with the third prince Yang Yi, and how could a logistics team of several hundred people be the opponent of the soldiers who had been ambushed by the Robben Empire with all their might? It was already the best outcome to be able to burn the grain and grass in time and not let the other party get the grain!

However, what do the 300,000 troops in the Mobei grassland eat?

"This prince is incompetent, let the loss of grain and grass in Dashang be halved, please punish the marshal!" The third prince, Yang Yishang, bowed respectfully to Li Xiangru.

"Alas, Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, don't blame yourself, forget it, the old man is to blame for this matter, so that the loss of grain and grass is halved......" Li Xiangru comforted Yang Yi while blaming himself, suddenly paused, raised his head, and found that the third prince Yang Yi did not have a trace of annoyance in his eyes, but looked at him very firmly.

"Your Highness, did you say the wrong thing?

"Yes, the loss is halved!!" the third prince Yang Yi repeated again, still exactly the same as what Li Xiangru heard just now.

There is a way that fire and water are ruthless, under the fire, how can only half of the extremely flammable grain and grass be burned, and even if half of it is burned, how can it not be discovered by the other party, not to mention that when the third prince Yang Yi and his party entered the barracks, they came completely empty-handed.

"Li Shuai, I have a few words I want to say to you. The third prince Yang Yi walked to Li Xiangru's side, bowed his head and whispered a few words to Li Xiangru, and the officers saw that Li Xiangru's expression first frowned and then his brows relaxed, then his eyes widened and became extremely surprised, and finally from surprise to ecstasy.

The officers on the side all pricked up their ears, and they listened hard, wondering what the third prince said that could make Li Xiangru's mood change so quickly.

After the third prince Yang Yi finished speaking, he stepped forward and returned to his seat, and the officers immediately turned their eyes to Li Xiangru, and at this time, Li Xiangru's expression had returned to normal.

From heaven to hell, and then from hell to heaven, for Li Xiangru, who is nearly sixty years old, his heart is really unbearable, and the two news he got today are really too exciting, and this happiness came too suddenly.

Li Xiangru was very excited, he just learned from Yang Yi that after discovering the enemy's situation, the Dashang logistics convoy secretly buried half of the grain and grass it escorted in the middle of the night, and deliberately burned half of it by the Weishui River to confuse the enemy, so as to get rid of the other party's pursuit, not only did the people who escorted the grain and grass unharmed, but also protected the basic grain and grass that could maintain the army.

What he sighed was that the third prince Yang Yi knew that there was an enemy ambush, and he actually had the courage to camp and rest under the enemy's nose, and even slept until he woke up naturally......

How did they fall asleep? How could they be sure that the other side would not attack?

None of this is important anymore, the important thing is that although the Great Merchants only have half of the grain and grass left, even if they can't meet the needs of the Great Army and Robben's army, it is really rich and surplus to retreat back to the Great Merchants to rest!!

Your Royal Highness, the Third Prince, you have saved the old ministers, saved the lives of 300,000 soldiers of the Great Shang, and saved the foundation of the Great Shang.

At this time, Li Xiangru had mixed feelings, and the more he looked at the third prince Yang Yi, the more he loved it, and he had long forgotten about his previous contempt for Yang Yi.

The third prince Yang Yi made a move, and in the eyes of Li Xiangru now, he is so magnificent!

Li Xiangru's excitement gradually calmed down, "Come on, bring the map." ”

On the map, the landmarks of Boya Cara City, Saihan Fortress, Flame City Fortress, Mobei Grassland, and Weishui River are clearly visible, Li Xiangru has his left hand on his waist, and his right hand is playing with the scabbard, carefully figuring out the map, and he is silently deducing the sand table in his heart.

No one in the Robben Empire knew that the Great Merchants still had grain in stock, and everyone thought that the Great Merchants had run out of grain and grass, and with this unexpected factor alone, Li Xiangru's sand table deduction results were already one step closer to victory.

The Great Shang soldiers who did not know the truth were still kept in the dark, and the grain and grass were burned by the Robben Empire, and panic spread rapidly among the Great Shang army, and panic was written on everyone's face.

Therefore, when Li Xiangru gave the order to retreat, the Left Route Army of Xiusi, who was besieging Boyakara City, and the Right Route Army of Hong Lei, who was besieging Saihan Fortress, had already begun to retreat with lightning speed.

The run was so fast, more than a day's journey, the left and right route armies only took less than five hours to rush back.

The Imperial Continent 169 XI

When the left and right armies of the Great Shang Western Expedition Army rushed back, the Middle Route Army, which was originally stationed under the Flame Fortress City, also began to pull out the camp.

The 300,000 troops were clustered together, crowded, and the soldiers fought each other, and the scene was particularly spectacular.

As soon as a clear-eyed person saw this kind of performance of the Great Shangxi Expeditionary Army on the opposite side, it was the rhythm of running home without food and grass!

The army of the Great Shang Empire was vigorous when it came, but it was also bustling when it retreated, which was more like a farce in the eyes of famous craftsmen.

A farce staged by a 300,000 clown.

When the army of the Great Shang Empire gradually faded out of the sight of the Robben army, rows of well-armored, energetic Robben Imperial soldiers slowly poured out of the flame fortress and chased after the army of the Great Shang Empire.

The wise man thinks a thousand times, just for one plan.

Now that the grain and grass of the army of the Great Shang Empire are gone, what the army of the Robben Empire has to do next is much simpler.

Like a pack of wolves, entanglement with the opponent until it is exhausted is exactly what Robben's imperial army is best at, and the most accustomed method.

Looking at the large messy footprints and horseshoe prints left by the army of the Great Shang Empire in front, the forward general of the Robben Empire, who was following the army of the Great Shang Empire, was full of emotion, and he said to his subordinates

"When the 300,000 troops of the Great Shang showed off their might under the Robben Empire, who would have thought that they would have today, war is like this, when you think you want to win, you suddenly find that you are already a loser, fate makes people. ”

After two days of pursuit, the most elite vanguard cavalry unit of the Robben Empire's army finally saw the shadow of the Great Shang Empire's army.

When the Robben Imperial cavalry appeared on the opposite hill, the other party didn't seem to expect the Robben Imperial army to appear so quickly, and the formation suddenly seemed a little flustered.

"Yohu~"

"Long live the Robben Empire"

"Rush"

Robben's Imperial cavalry rushed towards the cat that had spotted the mouse.

The fierce general Tro is even more in the lead!!

I thought that if it was about IQ, Lao Tzu would be a little worse than you little white faces, but who can compare with Lao Tzu in terms of bravery?

It's just that Trow and his cavalry didn't notice that behind the panicked Dashang soldiers in front of them was a neat and unsightly formation, in which the soldiers had their tall and heavy shields on the ground with one hand, and the other hand had already raised their spears more than three meters long to deal with the cavalry, and they had been waiting for a long time.

"Robben's army, you are coming so slowly" Xiusi and Hong Lei, who were ambushed in the distance, showed a cold smile on their faces, behind Xiusi and Hong Lei, rows of cavalry were waiting for them, and there were constantly war horses snorting, and occasionally there were unbearable war horses stepping on the ground with iron hooves, making a dull sound, as if they were timing the charge of the Great Shang Cavalry Legion.

"Kill"

"Rush"

Robben's cavalry was completely unaware of the danger, and Tro and Ba Butu, who led the troops, did not give in to each other, and both wanted to be the first to rush in front of the Great Shang army. This made the originally compact offensive formation of Robben's cavalry longer and longer, and the phalanx of tens of thousands of infantry led by General Landers was at least half a day's journey away from the cavalry corps of Trow and Babutu.

Two impatient forwards are launching one of the most foolish ultra-long-range attacks.

This made a large number of Robben cavalry horses already exhausted when they ran in front of the Great Shang army.

When the Robben cavalry corps led by the two of them ran in front of the infantry team of the Great Shang Empire, which was waiting for them, things became much simpler.

Tro finally shook off Babutu in the last few hundred meters of the sprint, and when he yelled and was the first to kill in front of the Great Shang army, he wondered how the Great Shang soldiers would have a panicked look on their faces when they saw him.

Then when the bright armor of the Great Merchant Army Formation appeared in front of him, his eyes were immediately dazzled by the light reflected by the armor scales that filled the field of vision, and the smug smile was still frozen on his face, his body had been pierced by the cold spear, and the rapid impact speed of the war horse made him unable to contain it at all.

Blood gushed from the wound, and Troll's eyes widened in anger, as if he still couldn't believe what was in front of him, his body hung on the spear and twitched, and his eyes gradually lost their brilliance.

A Robben Empire general, who is said to have orc blood, kicked off the battle with his death.

Seeing this scene, Babutu "Troll" roared, and slashed at the horse's buttocks, and the war horse screamed in pain and accelerated the speed of the charge.
