In terms of commanding troops to fight and strategizing, he is too far behind Bi Wu and Lu Kai, if the person who fought against Wang Han at the beginning was Bi Wu or Lu Kai, his army would never have been defeated so badly, and there was even the possibility of victory.

Thinking of this, Lin Haotian felt bitter in his heart, feeling that he was really disappointed as an adult, and his rule was far inferior to Bi Wen, Chu Lianyu and other court ministers, and in terms of martial arts, he was not as good as Ding Feng, Bi Wu, and Lu Kai, even if he was proud of his martial arts, there was a big gap compared with today's top generals such as Ling Wuya and Xuanyuan Fang.

If you can't write or martial arts, what else can you do?

Alas! Lin Haotian sighed. The Jin-Chi War was not over yet, and his confidence was lost first.

I don't know what the adults are thinking in their hearts, but seeing that his face is cloudy and sunny, and it is uncertain, Bi Wu and Lu Kai didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly said: "My lord, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's go back to Suyue first, Mr. Chu has also rushed to Suyue from Bailin." ”

Lin Haotian nodded absentmindedly, and replied casually: "Okay!" As he spoke, he separated everyone and walked towards the Red Army.

Seeing Lin Haotian coming, the red soldiers and generals were extremely nervous, and surrounded Wang Han with three layers inside and three layers outside, preventing Lin Haotian from getting close.

Instead, Wang Han separated everyone with a smile on his face, walked out of the crowd calmly, and stood still in front of Lin Haotian. He took the lead in giving a salute and said, "Thank you General Lin for taking care of me for many days, Wang Han will remember it in his chest. ”

Lin Haotian looked at Wang Han noncommittally and didn't say anything.

He stared at it for a long time, not to mention that Wang Han felt awkward, even the soldiers of the Red Army were confused by the second monk, and they couldn't understand what Lin Haotian was doing, so he could say it if he had something to say. If you don't have any words, let's go!

After a long time, just when everyone in the Jin and Chi armies was waiting impatiently, Lin Haotian suddenly bent down, approached Wang Han, and whispered in his ear: "Shi Huai is narrow-minded and has always been suspicious. In this battle, you have lost strangely, this matter will never be good, you should be careful. After speaking, he glanced at Wang Han deeply, turned around, and walked back to his camp.

Looking at Lin Haotian's back, Wang Han was thoughtful.

Xuanyuan Fang stepped forward and asked curiously, "General." What did King Jin just tell you?"

Wang Han came back to his senses, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing. ”

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Xuanyuan Fang reminded: "Lin Haotian has always been treacherous and treacherous, no matter what he says, the general doesn't have to take it to heart. ”

Wang Han was happy, grateful for Xuanyuan Fang's concern about him, and he nodded. "I will," he said. ”

In this battle of Suyue, the Red Army was indeed defeated. The sudden appearance of the Second Army and the Third Army took the Red Army by surprise, both cavalry and infantry, there were considerable losses, and most importantly, the Red Army camp was broken, and all military funds, grain and grass fell into the hands of the Jin Army. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Red Army, even if Wang Han returned to the Red Army, he couldn't think of a good way to deal with it for a while, so he could only give up continuing the offensive and retreat the whole army first.

Wang Han's retreat was decisive. Not only did they withdraw from Donggang County, but they did not stop even in Anqiu County, and directly withdrew to Tianma County, where a large amount of baggage and grain and grass were hoarded.

Anqiu is a loess plain with a flat river, lack of resources, no danger to defend, and Wang Han is precisely based on cavalry, good at attacking but not good at defending, rather than staying in Anqiu to be beaten passively, it is better to withdraw to Tianma County to be safe, that is, to solve the problem of logistics and supply on the spot, and to quickly replenish the troops, which can prepare for the future counterattack.

His choice was not wrong, but when the war report came out of the Jiankang Imperial Court, it completely changed its taste.

Hearing that Wang Han led the army from Dongjiang County and was beaten back to Tianma County, the government and the opposition of the Red Kingdom were in an uproar, and at this time, the ministers of civil and military affairs came to the spirit and carefully studied why Wang Han was defeated so badly.

After checking and checking, in the final analysis, the problem is still the battle of Suyue.

After the defeat of the First Battle of Suyue, the more than 400,000 Central Army of the Red Kingdom lost no less than 100,000 infantry and nearly 60,000 or 70,000 cavalry, resulting in a great loss of vitality of the whole army. And the turning point of this battle was that the Second and Third Legions of the Jin State crossed the Chizhan Mudi and directly attacked the Red Kingdom.

Of course, the Jin army was able to pass through Ningdi unimpeded, and Ji Wei, who was in charge of the eight counties of Munan, had an unshirkable responsibility, but even so, Wang Han couldn't be unprepared, and put all his energy into attacking Suyue City, so that the second and third legions that infiltrated him took advantage of the loopholes.

Regarding this matter, Shi Huaiyou personally sent a letter to Wang Han to inquire about it.

Wang Han told the truth, it was not that he was unwary of the Jin army that was attacking, but because he had no knowledge of the Jin army's movements, and Mudi did not make any warnings and reports about the Jin army's long drive, so he was attacked by the Jin army without knowing it.

Seeing Wang Han's reply, Shi Huai's nose was almost crooked, how bold Ji Wei was, such an urgent military situation did not make any report to the country, it was simply lawless.

Shi Huai immediately sent the book to Ji Wei in Ningdi, but the latter wrote clearly and clearly in the reply letter, and it was clear that he had sent someone to inform Wang Han about the movements of the Jin army, and as for why Wang Han was unprepared, it had nothing to do with him.

This is good, Wang Han said that he did not receive Ji Wei's alarm, and Ji Wei said that he sent someone to inform Wang Han, the two of them insisted on their own words, and Shi Huai couldn't tell who was true and who was false.

In the end, it was the general Yin Liang who gave him an idea, and asked Shi Huai to transfer Wang Han and Ji Wei back to Jiankang, ask them clearly in the court, and confront him face to face, and the truth of the matter will be revealed.

Shi Huai felt that Zhang Rong's idea was feasible, so he immediately approved it, and ordered Xuanyuan Fang, the commander of the Tianwei Army, to replace Wang Han and temporarily serve as the commander of the whole army, and ordered the minister Yan Ning to replace Ji Wei, temporarily manage the eight counties of Munan, and recall Wang Han and Ji Wei.

Changing commanders in battle is a taboo for soldiers. Shi Huai himself understands this, but what he is more afraid of is the disloyalty of his courtiers, Wang Han and Ji Wei have their own opinions, but one of them must be lying, and the two are in high positions, Shi Huai does not dare to let this matter drag on, and is eager to find out the truth.

Ji Wei was replaced, so that the northward counterattack of the eight counties of Munan completely lost the opportunity, and Wang Han's replacement, and the steps of the Central Army of the Red Kingdom that were hoarded in Tianma County were completely disrupted, it can be said that the ideas given by the general Yin Liang to Shi Huai were basically all bad ideas, and none of them were the best strategies, but he would just do what he liked, and he knew very well what Shi Huai was thinking, so his ideas could be accepted and adopted by Shi Huai every time.

The country is about to die, and there has always been no shortage of ministers, and the biggest minister in the Red Country is none other than this Yin Liang.

On the other side, the Jin Kingdom occupies the moon.

After the Battle of Suyue, the Red Army all retreated and returned to Tianma County, and the pressure on Lin Haotian's side was suddenly relieved. Now as long as the Jin army goes south, it can occupy Anqiu County in one fell swoop.

The morale of the Jin army was naturally boosted and full of hope, but to Chu Lianyu's surprise, Lin Haotian was as happy as the generals on the surface, but when there was no one, he was always depressed and unhappy.

With the civil strife in Chi, another change of commanders, and another change of Mudi officials, and now that we have the initiative, what else do you have to worry about? Chu Lianyu was very puzzled.

On this day, the Second Army Corps and the Third Army Corps both sent back battle reports, the two armies had successfully advanced into Anqiu County, and there was no hoarding of a large number of Red Army troops in its territory, and it was estimated that it would not take half a month to fully occupy the county.

Chu Lianyu came to Lin Haotian with a smile with the battle report, but saw the latter sitting in the garden in a daze, with only Shao Lin by his side.

didn't walk over immediately, he asked Shao Lin with his eyes first, Shao Lin shrugged his shoulders, showing a helpless expression.

Chu Lianyu paused, took a deep breath, walked quickly to Lin Haotian, and said with a smile: "My lord, there is good news!"

Lin Haotian suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Chu Lianyu blankly for two seconds before reacting, and asked with a smile, "What good news?"

"General Bi Wu and General Lu Kai have led the army back to Anqiu, and the Red Army that retreated to Tianma County is too timid to fight, presumably, it won't be long before Anqiu will return to our army. Chu Lianyu smiled happily.

"Oh!" Lin Haotian smiled: "That's good!"

He was smiling, but his tone was lonely. (To be continued......)
