When Guan Ji finished speaking, everyone present, including Chastain, was all red-faced. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Wind Army unscrupulously arranged all the ammunition depots to the outposts to prepare for a large-scale attack in the future.

After all, the wind army is not wrong in its calculations, the thirteenth army really does not dare to take the initiative to attack, let alone take the initiative to attack the wind army, once the wind army moves north, they have to run faster than rabbits.

Chastain's face was red and white, changing rapidly, he couldn't help but look left and right, and glared at the generals under his command, as if to say, it's all your fault, if you are not greedy for life and afraid of death, you will run away when you see the wind army, how can the wind army be so arrogant and unscrupulous?

Shame, what the Wind Army did, for the Thirteenth Legion, it was really a shame!

A general said with a solemn face: "The Feng army is about to fight, it seems that Xincheng is not safe here, our army has to retreat immediately!"

His words immediately resonated with most people.

All the generals nodded one after another, and said in a non-chassaric manner: "That's right! The current Feng Army, counting the 20th Army that defected, has a total of three legions, and our army has only one legion, with one enemy and three, how can it win?"

This is said as if with one enemy and one, the thirteenth army can win.

Another general said: "The defeat in this battle is all due to Zhang Tianyi's treason, the responsibility is not in our department, our department is really unnecessary, stay in Jiangling County, and fight to the death with the Feng army!"

"That's right! The damned person is Zhang Tianyi, a puppet and villain, not us! Right now, our army should go north into Baisha County, regroup, wait for the imperial court to gather a large army, and then try to counterattack!"

Listening to the generals of the Thirteenth Army, you say a word, and I say a word, and there is only one meaning expressed, retreat!

Guan Ji closed his eyes and sighed secretly, he had already said very clearly, the Feng Army set up ammunition hoarding at the outpost, and there were only a thousand people stationed there, for a legion, it was simply at your fingertips, but one of the generals of the Thirteenth Army actually proposed to go forward to sneak attack.

Chastain was silent, he fled without a fight in the Battle of the Two Cities, he urgently needed to give an explanation to the imperial court, and now the opportunity has come, if he can really destroy the ammunition hoarding of the Wind Army, this is undoubtedly a great feat, on the side of the imperial court, not only can he make up for it, but he is also bound to be rewarded by the imperial court.

He pondered for a long time and asked, "General Guan, is it true that the fortress where the Wind Army is hoarding ammunition is only a thousand people stationed there?"

"The last general saw it with his own eyes!" Guan Ji Zhengse said.

The generals present looked at Chadant like monsters, and some generals said suspiciously: "The general doesn't really plan to attack the Wind Army Fortress, right? This Wind Army Fortress is only thirty miles away from Jiuzhen City!"

The rest of the generals nodded again and again, only thirty miles away, isn't that a blink of an eye, I'm afraid that before they have taken the fortress, the main force of the wind army has already rushed over to reinforce.

Chastain said in an accentuated tone: "However, the defenders in the fortress are only a thousand people!"

One hundred thousand to one thousand, within a quarter of an hour, how to fight down, no matter how fast the wind army reinforcements, it is impossible to arrive at the outpost fortress from Jiuzhen City in a quarter of an hour.

The generals looked at each other, and people all had one reaction, that is, shaking their heads. "It's too dangerous! The fortress garrisoned by a thousand people is not easy to fight, and it is still so close to Jiuzhen City, according to the general, it is really difficult for our army to win this battle!"

"Victory, I think it's a meat bun beating a dog, there is no return!"

"It is reasonable for our army to go north now and enter Baisha County, so why take any more risks and gamble with the lives of 100,000 soldiers of the whole army!"

"Yes, I hope the general can focus on the overall situation, and don't take the lives of the whole army as a child's play!"

"Please think twice!" all the generals present, without exception, bowed to Chastain in unison. It is said to be a gift, but in fact, it is forcing the palace, in the Thirteenth Legion, the legion commander has always been just an ornament, which can be regarded as a major feature of the Thirteenth Legion.

Seeing this, Guan Ji only felt a headache, what kind of army is this, comparing them to shrimp soldiers and crab generals, they are all insulting shrimp soldiers and crab generals!

In the past, Chastain might have followed the decision of his subordinates and led the whole army to withdraw to Baisha County according to their advice, but this time, his attitude was extremely resolute.

Quite simply, he had no other choice. If the Thirteenth Legion flees without a fight and retreats into Baisha County, it will really be too much to say, the imperial court will not punish others, but will only take him as the commander of the legion first, and now he chooses to retreat, for him, it is a dead end.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "In this battle, our army must fight, this is a general's order, and whoever dares to disobey it will be dealt with by military law!"

"Poof!" Hearing his words, there was a sound of laughter all around, and a famous general tilted his head, held his shoulders, wrapped his arms, and shook one leg, and said: "If you want to die, it's simple, you die by yourself, don't fucking pull us!"

"Military justice? I'll lend you ten guts, and you can kill me and try to kill me?"

Chastain's face was not white at this time, but blue. He was so angry that he trembled and held back for a long time, Fang roared in a low voice: "If you want to go, you can go by yourself, I will take the soldiers who don't want to leave to attack the Wind Army Fortress, but I will also put the ugly words in front, after I beat the Wind Army Fortress, all the credit has nothing to do with you and others, as for why you didn't participate in the war, why you withdrew first, you go and explain to the court yourself, Lao Tzu doesn't care!"

It is rare that Charles can be regarded as a hard time, and what he said is called a sonorous and powerful, categorical, and righteous and awe-inspiring.

However, after saying these bold words, he himself was also half cold, what if all the generals really left? You must know that once they are all gone, no one below will be stupid enough to stay and accompany him to attack the fortress of the Wind Army.

He swallowed his spit and cautiously peeked at the generals.

The generals really didn't expect that Chastain, who had always been obedient to them, would be so tough this time. People gathered together and whispered their counters. "Damn, Chastain doesn't know whether he lives or dies, he wants to die, just let him go, let's go!"

"However, when we go, there will be no one to help me carry the blame, the court is really to blame, we can't eat and walk around!"

No matter how much they make trouble in the Thirteenth Army, there is still Chastain on their heads, and the big sword of the imperial court is really cut on the head of the Thirteenth Army, and there is also Chastan, an unlucky bastard, on top.

Now, if they fall out with Chastain and the soldiers are separated, the court will blame them, and there will be no umbrella on their heads.

"Actually, 100,000 fights 1,000, and our army is not without a chance of winning!"

"That's right! If Chastain really has the first credit, we will lose more than we gain, and we will waste a great opportunity to make a great achievement!"

The generals whispered, and in the end, everyone's eyes fell on the partial general Xin Chen. Xin Chen is a son of the Xin family, but he was born in a side branch, in the thirteenth legion, don't look at his military rank is not the highest, just a partial general, but the weight of his words is much heavier than Chastain.

Xin Chen's eyes kept rolling, and after thinking about it, he finally made a decision. He raised his hand and pointed at Chastain, and said with a smile: "Okay! Lao Tzu will stay this time and see how your kid dies in the end!"

His statement made the generals not mention the withdrawal again, and they echoed it: "If you don't go, you won't leave, isn't it just going to the battlefield and fighting hard, and Lao Tzu is not afraid!" q8zc

After fierce internal debates, the high-ranking generals of the Thirteenth Army finally reached a consensus and used the strength of the whole army to attack the outpost fortress where only a thousand wind troops were stationed.

Guan Ji, who was lying on the bed, really didn't have the strength to speak now, and he really had nothing to say to the Thirteenth Legion.

If he is the commander of the Thirteenth Army, the first thing he has to do is to go directly to the imperial court and ask the imperial court to disband the Thirteenth Army immediately.

Chastain still has a little military knowledge, at least he still knows that the goal is too big to be detected by the wind army spies, so he specially ordered to go down, and during the day, the whole army will rest in a hidden place, wait until it is dark, and then start marching, quietly approaching the outpost fortress of the wind army.

In short, it was only three days to go, but the Thirteenth Army Corps was five days away. Late that night, the 13th Army finally arrived at the fortress of the Wind Army as Guan Ji had spoken.

This fortress was built on the scale of a large fortress, the walls are tall and thick, and the area is also wide, and from a distance, it looks like a huge monster lying in the dark night.

Seeing the appearance of the fortress clearly, the soldiers of the Thirteenth Army are secretly retreating, such a large fortress and such an important fortress, how can there be only a thousand people stationed there?

Looking at its scale, it is more than enough to garrison tens of thousands of people, and if there are really 10,000 wind troops stationed inside, they will not be able to defeat it no matter what.

Even Chastain, who had the most resolute fighting spirit, was now secretly grinning, and asked Guan Ji, who was 'seriously wounded' lying on a stretcher, "General Guan, this fortress is really only garrisoned by a thousand wind troops......?" You can't be mistaken, can you?"

Guan Ji said conclusively: "The last general is never mistaken, in the fortress, there is indeed only one battalion of the Wind Army!"

Hearing him say so sure, Chastain's tense mood finally calmed down a little.

Xin Chen snorted coldly and said, "General, don't blame the last general for not reminding you, even if there were indeed only a thousand wind troops in the fortress at the beginning, but after so many days, maybe the wind army has already increased its troops here!"

When Chastain heard this, he gasped, and the order to attack was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't say it for a long time. Guan Ji reminded faintly beside him: "General Cha, the arrow is on the bow!"

After thinking about it, Chastain turned his heart on the side and ordered: "The whole army is attacking, and you must take this Wind Army fortress!"

The order was delivered, and a legion of 100,000 men began to storm a fortress.

In the fortress, the first sound of gunfire came out. As the cannon sounded, the soldiers of the Thirteenth Army, who were rushing forward to kill, instinctively turned around and ran back.

The people in front ran back, the people behind were still attacking forward, the front army and the rear army claimed to collide, and they didn't use the guns of the wind army to hit them, and there were many soldiers of the Thirteenth Army who were injured and trampled to death.

Guan Ji, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but hold his forehead, and before leaving, he also specially told the 1,000 soldiers guarding the fortress not to fight back too violently when he saw the Ningnan Army coming, but he still overestimated the Thirteenth Army, who knew that it was only one shot, so the Thirteenth Army was chaotic.

After the Feng army in the fortress finished this shot, they saw that the Ningnan army attacking and killing outside the fortress was in a mess, and they didn't dare to fire the second shot, but just fired outward with a fire gun, but most of the targets of the attack were the sky, not the crowd.

A fortress with only 1,000 people garrisoned, or in the case of the Wind Army's deliberate release of water, the soldiers of the Thirteenth Army barely rushed to the front of the fortress, and after that, one after another cloud ladders were erected, and the Thirteenth Army began to attack the Wind Army on the city wall.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the wind army in the city did not resist much, and fled from the battlefield along the south gate of the fortress.

Seeing that the Wind Army was unbelievably beaten away by their own side, the morale of the Thirteenth Legion was raised, and people shouted and climbed the ladder, constantly pouring up the city and rushing into the fortress.

It didn't take long for the north gate of the fortress to be opened from the inside by the soldiers of the Ningnan army, and the Ningnan army outside swarmed in, and this seemingly solid large fortress was successfully taken by the thirteenth army after a fierce attack.
