Chapter 395: Retreat
If you extrapolate according to this principle, dozens of children of the family will be escorted by a maximum of a hundred saint-rank martial artists. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf luck is against the sky, and there is a Holy Emperor master of that family who wants to come out and take a walk, it is not impossible. As for the remaining thousands of guards, they are a group of rank martial artists whose strength has not yet broken through, and they are more powerful than ordinary soldiers.
If the other party is this strength, then sending the Heavenly Wolf Guard, which he has painstakingly trained, will pay some price, but it is not difficult to eat the other party.
But the dozen or so breaths that came out now broke Cao Wenhao's illusions.
With so many masters, this is simply not something that a single force can match with.
As for it, it's just a group of children of a family, do you need such a powerful guard?
Cao Wenhao even felt that the four princes in this hall did not have the dignity of the children of those families outside the woods.
I have worked hard for several years, how much sourness I have suffered in the middle, and how much humiliation I have endured. worked hard to accumulate strength, but now I find that even some children of the family are inferior.
How is this possible?
At this time, another battle report came out from the front.
"Report to the four princes, the strength of the enemy's vanguard is amazing, the brothers can't resist it, and the defense line is torn apart in a short time. However, the enemy had no intention of entanglement with our troops, but only wanted to pass quickly, and at this time they had penetrated our troops, but there were not many casualties caused by our troops. ”
"In addition, the enemy's follow-up troops have just come up and are engaged in a fierce battle with our troops. This enemy force is not strong, and our army has repaired the defensive line and gradually surrounded the enemy. ”
What kind of battle situation is this, the enemy vanguard cuts through the defense line and leaves, and the follow-up troops just come up but fall into the encirclement. Could it be said that the enemy's vanguard does not care whether the follow-up troops live or die?
At this time, Feng Shaoyan suddenly shouted that it was not good.
"Your Highness, the enemy army wants to divide and surround us and annihilate us. As soon as the enemy's vanguard turns around and encircles our troops, our troops are in danger. ”
Cao Wenhao's face is already quite ugly now, and he can naturally think of things that Feng Shaoyan can think of. The fact that the enemy had cut through the entire defense line of the Sky Wolf Guard so quickly showed that the strength of the enemy army was stronger than he imagined. If they were divided and surrounded like this, it would probably be impossible for the Heavenly Wolf Guard, who had been painstakingly trained by him, to retreat in his entirety.
But how willing is Cao Wenhao to give up like this.
"The number of enemy troops is only five thousand, and we can eat the enemy's follow-up troops first. In the vanguard of turning his head against the enemy, my Sirius guard has twenty thousand men. ”
Feng Shaoyan hurriedly said: "Your Highness, although the enemy army is only a few thousand, there are too many of their masters, and their combat power far exceeds our imagination. Now it's not that we're going to annihilate them, it's that we're in danger of being defeated. ”
Cao Wenhao gritted his teeth and said, "Then you can also eat the enemy's follow-up troops first." As the intelligence just said, most of the enemy's masters are in the vanguard troops, and the follow-up troops are not strong and not numerous. ”
Feng Shaoyan was about to jump at this time: "But the enemy won't be captured, just stand there and let us kill." The fact that the enemy's vanguard was able to cut through our defenses so quickly shows the strength of the opposing side, and I am afraid that it will not take them a quarter of an hour to turn their heads. Your Highness, a quarter of an hour is the strength of the Heavenly Wolf Guard, it is impossible to annihilate thousands of enemy troops. ”
Feng Shao's words are reasonable, and every sentence is reasonable, but he is not in harmony with Cao Wenhao's heart.
At this time, Han Tan also came out and said, "Your Highness, stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood." The main reason for the defeat in this battle was the mistake of intelligence, and the enemy's strength exceeded our expectations too much, which is not our sin, let alone the sin of His Highness. I beg your Highness to order a retreat before making plans. ”
Retreat, what a simple two words. I have often said before that those who achieve great things must have a city government and understand forbearance. It is necessary to retreat and even give in so that you can stand higher in the future.
But today to get Cao Wenhao to say these two words, Cao Wenhao felt why it was so difficult.
Today is different from the past, Cao Wenhao has been dormant for several years, just so that he can make a splash today, and put all those who once looked down on him at his feet, so that he can also enjoy the pleasure of being high, worshiped by thousands of people, and holding the power of life and death.
Today's battle is not just a simple ambush, but also the first time Cao Wenhao has released his ambitions in the bright light. If he retreated silently like this, Cao Wenhao would feel that his efforts in the past few years were just a joke.
Cao Wenhao is not a fool, let alone a stunned young man who ignores the upsurge of blood. Cao Wenhao knew that the situation was out of his control, and if he continued to delay like this, he would only make himself more and more passive, and he might even bury all the forces he had worked so hard to accumulate in the first battle.
Cao Wenhao saw these very clearly, even more clearly than Feng Shaoyan and Han Tan.
Cao Wenhao is just unwilling now, extremely unwilling. He didn't want this well-planned ambush to end like this. Cao Wenhao even thought that as long as he could let himself bite the other party hard before retreating, he could also give himself a comfort.
But now, even such an opportunity is not something that Cao Wenhao can ask for.
Now bite the other party, in exchange for being gnawed by the other party.
The rational mind told Cao Wenhao to withdraw, but the young man's heart told Cao Wenhao that he could no longer be a turtle with a shrunken head.
Cao Wenhao, who was in a dilemma, finally turned his attention to Cao Shaoce for help, hoping that his mentor and friend in life could make a decision for himself.
But Cao Shaoce didn't seem to see Cao Wenhao's embarrassment, he just lowered his head deeply, as if he was asleep.
"Your Highness, make up your mind. ”
There was a stinging pain in the palm of the hand, and the nails that had been too hard had pierced the palm, and the bright red blood dripped down the gap between the palms. It's like Cao Wenhao's heart.
"Withdraw. ”
With all the strength of his body, Cao Wenhao finally got himself out from between his teeth.
Feng Shaoyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at Cao Wenhao's face, he added a silent sigh.
Who can be blamed for today's incident?
Who could have predicted that there would be such a force that seemed to emerge from the ground?
As the saying goes, it is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. Who can disobey Providence?
A long-planned ambush ended in a short period of time. Neither of the warring parties had anticipated such an outcome.
When Wu Tian and the others led the five thousand Shengyao to turn back again, they did not complete the task of dividing and encircling the enemy army as explained by Lin Zhan. Instead, they encountered the enemy forces that had already begun to retreat and the follow-up troops who had fought a big battle with the enemy army.
The team of Heavenly Wolf Guard, Cao Wenhao, spent several years of hard work, and the carefully trained team deserved to be the elite of the elite, even if they retreated, they also withdrew in an orderly manner. In Wu Tian, under the pursuit of Yu Mengshan and thousands of guards, the 20,000 Heavenly Wolf Guards only left less than 3,000 corpses, and the rest were evacuated safely.
When Wu Tian reported the result to Lin Zhan, Lin Zhan was also surprised by this result.
Lin Zhan immediately ordered all the corpses of the enemy soldiers to be removed.
Everyone else felt a little strange about Lin Zhan's order. At this time, the battle was over, and they all felt that there was no danger, and they were busy counting how many enemies their guards had killed in the battle just now, and how much credit they had gained.
Because the battle was so short, the guards of the children of the family did not suffer many casualties, and there were many more wounded than dead. This is also one of the reasons why those children of the family are more satisfied with this result.
As for the enemy troops who fled, they had already fled anyway, and they couldn't catch up with them, so it didn't have much to do with them.
Because the enemy army killed was less than 3,000 people, and those children of the family were eager to take all the credit on their heads, it did not take long for the children of the family to quarrel and abuse each other.
Words like this person was obviously killed by his own guards, and it became his credit when his guards came up and made up for it. Some people can't convince each other to pull each other's skins, expose each other's shortcomings, and the broken things when the other party was a little kid a few years or even more than ten years ago have been turned out, and the words are becoming more and more unbearable. Slowly, under the temptation of close interests, some people have begun to greet each other's female relatives and ancestors for eighteen generations.
