Chapter Twenty-Nine: Three Passes and Eleven Cities III

At dawn on April 28, all five cities fell, and the 87th and 89th Armies were all killed from the commander down, and none of them survived. Subsequently, the million-strong army of the Shangdang Legion began to march rapidly towards Kanmen Pass and Xianggongling. When Subutai arrived at Xianggong Ridge, he unexpectedly found that the mountain ridge was already empty.

"Batuyev, what the hell is going on?" Su Butai called a Baitu commander who led the army to attack Kanmen Pass yesterday with a gloomy face, and there was no joy on his face to occupy the enemy's fortress.

Captain Baitu, named Batuev, came to Subutai dejectedly, and said cautiously: "Tell the Legion Chief." Yesterday night, the enemy's 101st Division suddenly launched a breakthrough, and then our troops were fiercely attacked by another Northern Naval Force. At that time, his subordinates happened to encounter the remnants of Motai Baitu. The subordinates were worried that it was the enemy's elite Seventh Army that attacked the rear of our army, so they retreated ten miles to avoid its edge. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Subutai slapped Batuev in the face and knocked him off his horse. This time, Subutai is really angry. No matter what, the hundreds of thousands of Chengtian troops were scared like this by an army in Beihai, and if it was spread, the Shangdang Legion would never be able to raise its head in the Chengtian Empire from now on. ”

"A bunch of bastards. Even if it was the Seventh Army that attacked you last night, they would not have attacked more than 10,000 troops at most, or even less. Yesterday, the Seventh Army had just fought a big battle with our army at Jianzhu Peak and Xianggongling, and it was impossible to do without losses. Someone, pass on my order, speed up the march, and after the front map arrives at Jianzhu Peak, there is no need to stop, and directly attack the city!"

"Yes! The commander of the army has an order, each map will speed up, and after arriving at the attack site, it will directly attack the city, and there must be no mistake!" The order was quickly passed on, and all the maps of the Shangdang army used their strength to eat, and they did not rest for a moment at Xianggongling, and went straight to Jianzhu Peak......

The main peak position of Jianzhu Peak, the big tent of the Seventh Army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, about seven or eight Beihai officers in ice armor sat on the left and right sides. On top of the main case, a tiger general dressed in a star armor was sitting majestically with a solemn expression.

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday our army was suddenly attacked by the Shangdang Legion of the Chengtian Empire, and suffered heavy losses. The 58th Army in Suizhou, as well as the 87th Army and the 89th Army guarding the five cities, should all be wiped out at this moment. In order to preserve his strength, last night he ordered Qian Bingshi to lead the 47th Division to meet the 101st Division of Kanmen Pass. However, in the breakout battle, the 101st Division's Ice Commander unfortunately died, and when the whole division arrived at Xianggongling, there were only more than 1,000 people left. Now, my 101st Division, 47th Division, and the General's Seventh Army are all on this Jianzhu Peak. The terrain of Jianzhu Peak is dangerous, there are cliffs on both sides, the front is narrow, the mountain is high and the slope is steep, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, the Jianzhu Peak is a major threat to the enemy's logistical supply line, so General Ben is determined to engage the enemy at the Jianzhu Peak for a long time, so as to gain time for our troops in the Crescent River Valley to deploy their troops. Yesterday, the general had already sent the White Bird Knight to report the news of the loss of Suizhou to the commander of the Baihui Legion in Feiyu Pass and the battle situation here, presumably at this time, the deputy commander should have received the news from the general. That's it, I don't know if you have any suggestions. ”

The northern naval officers in the tent thought for a moment, and nodded yes one after another, indicating that they would defend Jianzhu Peak and block the enemy's advance.

"Report!" Just when the atmosphere in the big tent was hot, 100,000 heralds beside Sun Yaoguang rushed in.

"What's the panic, what's going on?" A hint of foreboding inexplicably surged into Sun Yaoguang's heart.

The herald took a breath and said eagerly: "Tell the commander, the 300,000 cavalry of the Shangdang Legion launched a surprise attack on the six cities in the north of me last night. Huacheng, where the 259th Division of the 60th Army was stationed, was broken by the enemy early this morning, and only a white bird knight directly under the headquarters of the 259th Division rushed out of the siege at the risk of death, and is now outside the big tent.

Sun Yaoguang was shocked when he heard this, and he couldn't care about etiquette anymore, so he turned over and crossed the main case directly, and hurriedly ran out of the tent. I saw a dying white bird knight lying on the ground, and the big white bird next to him kept rubbing his face against the white bird knight, with tears in his eyes.

Sun Yaoguang walked up to the seriously injured White Bird Knight, squatted down, lowered his head and asked, "Brother, brother!"

The white bird knight seemed to hear Sun Yaoguang's voice, and with all his strength, he opened his eyes, stared at Sun Yaoguang silently, and said with difficulty: "Lord Bing General, last night, tens of thousands of Chengtian cavalry suddenly appeared outside Huacheng City. Our 259th Division was caught off guard, and Huacheng was quickly captured by the enemy. With no hope of breaking through, Chief Ice ordered his subordinates to convey the news to Lord Bing. Let's go, if you don't retreat, after the 60th Army and the 99th Army are wiped out, you will have no way to retreat. Hurry up ......". Before the word "go" could be spoken, the white bird knight died on the spot, and he didn't blink a blind eye.

Everyone present was speechless at this time, bowing their heads and saying nothing. Sun Yaoguang silently closed the eyes of the white bird knight and looked at his subordinates with a heavy heart.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that the enemy's goal is to completely annihilate all the living forces of our Menglan Legion in this area and prevent our troops from retreating to the Crescent River Valley. Now, I order that the two divisions of the 101st Division and the 47th Division, led by Bingshi Qian Zheng of the 47th Division, as the vanguard troops, immediately retreat in the direction of the Crescent River Valley and enter the Caoyi Valley to ensure the retreat of our army. 358th Division Ice Master Dai Huabin!"

"The last general!" replied a straight, imposing officer in white.

Sun Yaoguang glanced at his favorite general, and said unbearably but resolutely: "Dai Huabin, you leave it for Lao Tzu." This general ordered you to lead the 358th Division to defend Jianzhu Peak for seven days and seven nights to cover the safe transfer of our large army. ”

"Yes, army commander! I promise to complete the mission!" Dai Huabin, an ice soldier of the 358th Division, gave a military salute to Sun Yaoguang and replied solemnly.

All the officers also saluted Dai Huabin one after another. They knew that Jianzhu Peak had become a dead place at this time, and there was no life to speak of. Sun Yaoguang had tears in his eyes, but he was still ruthless and turned to leave.

Not long after, the 101st Division and the 47th Division took the lead in withdrawing from Jianzhu Peak and rushed along the main road in the direction of the Crescent River Valley. The remaining two divisions of the Seventh Army, under the leadership of army commander Sun Yaoguang, did not take the eastern avenue, but went all the way to the north.

As soon as Sun Yaoguang left, the vanguard of the Shangdang Legion rushed to the foot of Jianzhu Peak, and immediately launched a disorderly group attack. However, such a reckless Hu Chong was naturally attacked head-on by the 358th Division, and by virtue of its geographical advantage, the 358th Division was able to kill several vanguard plans of the Party Legion by throwing away their armor and throwing thousands of corpses in vain. It wasn't until two hours later that Subutai led 300,000 vanguard troops to the foot of Jianzhu Peak...
