361 Great defeats and losses
After the meeting, Zhao Gou returned to the next place, and Wang Okra and Cui Yuying were two groups of incense coming over.
Zhao Gou just wanted to speak, but suddenly his body sank and fell into the arms of the two.
The two women were shocked and hurriedly helped Zhao Gou to the bed. I was worried about his safety just now, but when I came, I was like this, and my heart became uneasy.
Zhao Gou suddenly smiled and said, "Seeing how nervous you are, you have all fallen for my plan." ”
The two girls suddenly broke up, and they used their hands and feet together to face Zhao Gou.
Let's talk about the Yongzhou front.
As soon as the prison army arrived in Yongzhou, they began to take a shelf, and they didn't even take Han Shizhong in their eyes, pointing to the east and drinking the west, as if no one could stop us.
Several military leaders saw that they were so arrogant, and even moved to kill the prison army to abolish it.
"I don't know what's going on with the prince this time, usually we lead the troops to fight and have the final say, but this time we even let the prison soldiers ride on our heads to and pee, I must tell the prince all these things when I go back."
"That's it, what real skills do these prison soldiers have, seeing that the map of Sanxi Sixteen Caves is in hand, they just rushed over to grab the merit, and see if they are happy."
"The prince's employment this time makes us unable to figure it out."
“······”
Han Shizhong received the letter brought by Zhao Gou with the army, and when he saw it, he knew it in his heart. The secret discussions of the military leaders were also clear, and at this time he smiled and said: "You people are actually suspicious of the prince's employment!" Don't chew your tongue anymore, be careful of Lao Tzu's autumn reckoning. In my opinion, the two prison guards are rushing to fight for merit, and the prince probably wants them to have a good time before they die. ”
When the generals heard this, they were quiet for a while, and suddenly laughed.
Obviously, the prison army has not yet realized the seriousness of leading troops, that is, any change before the battle will affect life and death.
The other side.
Duan Yin has not been idle since he hid in the sixteenth cave of Sanxi, and in order to expand his living space, he actively contacted Xiangyang Tan Junxian and Caizhou Guan Shanyuan.
At this time, only these two forces are his lifesavers.
Tan Junxian and Guan Shanyuan have also been paying close attention to the war in the south, and when they saw Duan Yin being forced into the sixteenth cave of Sanxi, they were anxious, although they couldn't help Duan Yin openly, they could secretly send people.
In fact, for a period of time when Duan Yin retreated to the Sixteen Caves of Sanxi, these two forces had already had hundreds of masters above the Extreme Realm join Duan Yin Bu one after another.
Duan Yin heard that Zhao Gou left Yongzhou and went north to Changsha, and Yongzhou was in charge of commanding Han Shizhong, Zhao Gou's direct subordinate, who was famous, so he didn't dare to hold it up, and waited for the opportunity to fight, and finally heard that there were two more prison troops, so he stroked his palms and laughed.
There is no veteran who has led the army for many years who does not hate the system of supervising the army.
The prison army is the spoiler, that is, the person who has no wind and waves, and the success is not enough, and there is more than failure!
Of course, Duan Yin knew very well what this prison army meant to him, yes, it was a rare opportunity to win back a city, and it was also the dawn of victory.
After all, he is a veteran who has accumulated many years, and he knows the truth in the army very well, and after learning this exciting news, he cheered up and sent people to scout him strictly, and thoroughly explored the bottom of the official army.
With the blessing of the two prison guards in the belly of the Wu Kuqi book, the combat strategy of the official army was to use heavy troops and red-coated artillery to open the way, and then find Duan to lead the main force to fight.
After Duan Yin heard this plan, he laughed: "Looking for my main force to fight? How confident are you, is Lao Tzu's main force bombarded with cannons for you? ”
Not long after, Duan Yin directly sent a small force of troops to harass Yongzhou many times, and he was trying to lure the official army out of the city.
At the beginning, the overseers who couldn't hold back in Yongzhou City were overjoyed when they saw that Duan Yinbu was not recruiting, and they ordered someone to pull out the heavy troops and red-clothed artillery, but by the time they were ready for a decisive battle, Duan Yinbu had already left.
This kind of back and forth attack disturbed several times, the prison army Bai was happy a few times, but did not see any gains, at that time he was angry, eager to fight, according to the map of Sanxi Sixteen Caves to Duan Yinbu drove out of the city.
Duan Yin saw that the other party had taken the bait, and couldn't hide the ecstasy in his heart, so he decisively let tens of thousands of old and weak soldiers use the banner of Duan Yin's boss as bait.
This part of the people fought and retreated, and even led the main force of the official army into a valley.
It is pitiful that there were 30,000 officers and soldiers when they set out on the expedition, and they lost 30% of their troops in this defeat, and even two red-coated cannons were lost.
The two prisoners heroically died at the hands of Duan Yin.
Han Shizhong has always chosen to stick to Zhao Gou's arrangement, and he has also protected the main force very well, and after the two supervisors were embarrassed and smashed the pot, he led people to give up Yongzhou City and go north to Changsha with great excitement.
The news that the official army lost Yongzhou and was counterattacked by Duan Yin's remnants of blood instantly spread throughout the Sanjing and Huguang regions, and the world was in an uproar.
Zhao Gou symbolically punished Han Shizhong a few times, just to let him continue to go, in fact, his heart was already happy.
If as expected, this matter will definitely continue to ferment, and those bull ghosts and snake gods who are watching will definitely be dispatched at that time.
The failed Zhao Gou is a piece of Tang monk meat, who doesn't want to take a bite?
Sure enough, Tan Junxian and Guan Shanyuan couldn't sit still, so under the banner of going south to help the official army quell the rebellion, they each sent 20,000 people to the south, and Duan Yin formed a corner to form a siege of Changsha.
Changsha City.
When Wu Ding learned that the battle situation had come to this, he said with regret: "Lord Wang, you said that this good situation has ruined the prison army, it's painful!" ”
Zhao Gou saw that Wu Ding and Jiao Lan were a little discouraged, so he smiled comfortingly: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, at that time, I could have allowed you two generals to go south, but the two overseers were conceited and learned, and if they had to die by themselves, this king had no choice." Now that it has happened, I have to make amends. Duan Yin's troops are not small, and there are unknown masters to help him, and now Yongzhou has been broken, and the next step is estimated to be to Changsha soon. ”
He paused and said, "Now there will definitely be people who advocate that we stick to Changsha, but I have a bold idea. ”
Jiao Lan pinched her thighs and said angrily: "Lord Wang, we have lost this time, and our morale is low, even the local chieftains are also determined to fall into the well against us, Changsha and Miaojiang have so many cities to defend, how easy is it to say!" ”
Do you still say that you have any bold ideas, don't you hear that it is better to be clumsy at the beginning than to hold on to the end, and at that time, you Zhao Gou should not have let the two and a half bottles of vinegar prison army go south.
The two of them were regretful and pessimistic, and almost said dissatisfied words to Zhao Gou.
In fact, they also knew that the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and Tan Junxian and Guan Shanyuan were nominally helping the officers and troops to quell the rebellion, but in fact, they were harboring evil intentions and were here to observe the situation.
The situation of the official army is unfavorable, so they share the spoils with Duan Yin, and Duan Yin has a breath, and their presence can contain the actions of the official army.
Since the two forces went south, they have not sent people to Changsha City to present their watches, which is evident, and the ambition of the wolf is clearly revealed.
Such a situation is not to be worried about the two veterans.
Zhao Gou cast a beam of inquiring glances at the two: "Are you so pessimistic? ”
The heart said, it seems that this defeat is very real, and even these two veterans have lost confidence by this defeat.
This is the effect he Zhao conceived.
"Don't be pessimistic, as long as the prince is here, we are all full of confidence, but we just regret this defeat." Wu Ding said with his cheeks puffed out at that time.
Jiao Lan also said: "The prince has always been resourceful, so he must have a clever plan to make amends." You just said that you still have bold ideas, can you tell me? ”
Zhao Gou smiled: "It's very simple, we withdraw from Changsha. ”
Wu Ding and Jiao Lan's heads buzzed at the same time, as if they were lost: "Lord, ······what do you say?"
"I said, give up holding on to Changsha, and leave the baggage and gold and silver in the city for them."
Let Changsha go, let them fight, let their forces come together?
This move is tantamount to suicidal, losing the south of Changsha has already made people's hearts float, it is no longer a person who is pessimistic and has no hope for the situation, he Zhao Gou simply gave up Changsha, which will only make the enemy's arrogance more arrogant!
Wu Ding and Jiao Lan knelt down directly: "Lord Wang, do you have no confidence anymore?" Since ancient times, great things have inevitably been rugged and bumpy, but you should not lose confidence when you encounter setbacks. ”
They actually thought that Zhao Gou had given up on his own initiative.
Haha, it seems that this scene is too real.
