Chapter 634: Into the Sea
After that, the back of the Gan Ning Palace walked for several miles, but found that the Taishan army on the opposite side was still only adorned, and there was no desire to fight.
Gan Ning also stopped and took the initiative to attack, but whenever Gan Ning went to chase, this Taishan army began to retreat.
If this is the case, Gan Ning understands that this is an army of snooping.
So, he ignored the Taishan army behind him, and quickly caught up with the front army with the army behind the palace.
After that, the army marched for two more hours, and came to a plum blossom forest.
I saw that the plum blossoms did not compete for spring, only reported the spring, and when the mountain flowers were blooming, she laughed in the bushes.
Looking at the figure of the Taishan soldiers in the rear from a distance, Gan Ning was vaguely uneasy, and then ordered the whole army to rest.
He called Shen Mi, Yan Yan, and Zhang Ren over, and said with a frown:
"What do you think of this group of Taishan troops in the back?"
Shen Mi didn't care, biting the jerky, and muttered:
"There's nothing to worry about. As the so-called hemp pole is afraid of the wolf, we are worried about the opposite side, and the opposite side is also worried that we have a back hand, so it is better to stay away. Don't you still have that sentence, don't stop returning to the army. Our army did not retreat from the battlefield in a hurry, but came down into a system. Not to mention how neat the army is, but the road is also orderly. Seeing such an army, I and I will not fight. ”
What Shen Mi said made sense, and Gan Ning couldn't help but bow his head.
And Yan Yan also agreed, adding:
"So let's keep this marching rhythm in the future, walk ten miles and rest for a while. The front and rear armies walked alternately, not giving the Taishan army behind a chance. ”
Then, he also asked Shen Mi on the side:
"How far are we from getting out of the Mouse Path?"
Shen Mi touched it and replied:
"It's probably less than twenty miles away. I don't know until I'm going to go. ”
However, just when the two were full of confidence, Zhang Ren frowned and said a layer of worry:
"You're not wrong. But what worries me more is that the Taishan army opposite us is actually trying to exhaust and delay us, so as to buy time for the main forces in the rear. ”
Zhang Ren's words hit Gan Ning's worries, and he said with a serious expression:
"Didn't you notice? Since the appearance of the Taishan army in the back, are the officers of our army getting more and more tired and walking more and more slowly? ”
Indeed, these Shen Mi and the two of them that Gan Ning said also found out. For example, the officials around them were still well equipped, but a little farther away, there were discarded baggage everywhere.
In fact, it is not surprising that there are no enemies behind them and the pressure on the mentality of these officials is completely different. Even if those Taishan troops did not attack, they were only far away, but the pressure was still transmitted to these people.
So Zhang Ren summed it up quite seriously:
"This is the enemy's strategy to exhaust us, that is, to strike a blow to me when our army's spirit is overwhelmed."
Shen Mi gasped, and then said fiercely:
"Then instead of suffering, let's simply turn around and fight with those Taishan troops!"
But this suggestion was rejected by Gan Ning, and he shook his head and said:
"It's not that simple, not to mention the previous few times I was mainly invited to fight, and the other side was avoiding the war. Let's just say that now, our army is weak and weak, the enemy army is holding the power of a great victory, and there are many generals. ”
Gan Ning thought about it, and comforted again:
"And our army is not the primary target of the enemy. Compared with the core Liangzhou Army, they are the focus of the Taishan Army. Therefore, when there is no total annihilation of the enemy of Suoyuan, there should be no main force of the enemy army coming. ”
Gan Ning's words played a little role, but not much, because several people present knew that these were just speculations.
But what can they do? At this time, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and it is already a blessing to be able to escape, how can there be so many and some that are not.
Therefore, after more than 7,000 Yizhou officials ate dry food, they could only continue to go south carefully. They alternated back and forth, each time with elite soldiers behind the palace, and only after the front department had traveled a few miles before they turned back and returned.
……
And when Gan Ning fled cautiously on the opposite side, in the Taishan army in the rear, Xu Huang, the general of the Flying Tiger, was leading the horse and following step by step.
At this time, Xu Huang was not in a good state, not only his hair was scattered, his clothes and armor were also full of axe marks, and he coughed a few times from time to time when he left.
That's right, it was the three thousand cavalry of Xu Huang's Flying Tiger Army's left guard who pursued Gan Ning, but at this moment, the number alone was less than half.
Xu Huang didn't expect that just casually pursuing a Liangzhou army would give him such a big loss.
Although in the end, all the 3,000 Liangzhou riders on the opposite side were annihilated, but hundreds of people died on their side, which can be said to be broken. Even Xu Huang himself was hit with an axe by the enemy general, and now he still has pain in his chest and lungs. But the person on the other side didn't end well, and his left arm was cut off by Xu Huang with an axe.
It's just a pity that the man was also lucky, jumped off the Fenshui after breaking his arm, and then disappeared.
Originally, Xu Huang was going to return, but after torturing the prisoners, he learned that there was still an army in front of them, so of course Xu Huang couldn't let it go.
After letting the first one send the wounded back, Xu Huang continued the pursuit.
To be honest, Xu Huang was not unlucky, in fact, he was a commando who attacked earlier.
At the beginning, he also directly attacked the Chinese army of the Kansai soldiers, and even saw the withdrawn Xi Shen Department on the way.
But just as he was about to attack, he saw Zhao Yun also rushing over with one, and Xu Huang thought about it and let go of this target.
The final result was that Hu Dashuai, who had relaxed his vigilance, was beheaded by Zhao Yunzhen, and Tai Shici cut off the enemy's Daxu.
And even though Xu Huang's eyes were hot, he also knew that this credit could not be contested, so he set his goal on the head of the important Liangzhou general.
So, he followed the route of the Liangzhou army general to flee, pursued all the way, and also saw an army left behind on the way, Xu Huang didn't want to bite hard, and led the army to bypass.
He didn't know that as soon as he left, Wang Han pressed over with his assault cavalry and directly forced this department to surrender.
So, Xu Huang missed another big achievement.
After that, Xu Huang broke through Fan Chou's department, and found the Yizhou military system, and now he is far behind the prey like a pack of wolves, waiting until the prey is exhausted from running in a panic, and finally killing with one blow.
So, with the sun rising three poles, Xu Huang led the team to pursue another ten miles, from his point of view, the Han soldiers on the opposite side were already very tired, the original team was quite neat, and now it is very panicked.
Xu Huang snorted and ordered:
"All change horses!"
After that, the auxiliary horsemen of the army pulled up the spare horses behind them.
Xu Huang turned over and got on the horse, changed to a horse, pointed a little forward, and galloped the horse.
Behind, all the assault riders got on their horses and began to sprint directly along the river valley road in a three-person parallel formation.
The two armies were only two or three miles apart, and by the time the Yizhou soldiers on the opposite side saw the cavalry rushing in, it was too late.
In the face of the wolf-like Taishan army, the Yizhou soldiers, who had long been exhausted, retreated, and the originally neat team was almost like a landslide.
Discarded flags and armor were everywhere, and some of them even jumped into the Fenshui naked, rowing downstream.
The chaos quickly spread forward, and when Xu Huang led the sudden cavalry behind him to pierce the chisel, the retreating Yizhou soldiers continued to squeeze and trample on the space in front of them.
At first, many of the officials in the front didn't know what was going on behind them, and they were pushed and fell to the ground by surprise, and then they couldn't get up again.
This time it was Shen Mi who was behind the palace, and he saw that the soldiers behind him were collapsing, so he immediately took the elite armor soldiers of his department to kill him, but on the narrow river valley road, everyone was rushing, and there was no room for these people to shuttle at all.
So, in the end, Shen Mi could only be coerced from behind and continue to the south.
Fortunately, there was a lot of distance between Shen Mi at the back of the hall and the three battalions in front, so when Shen Mi and the others retreated, they had enough time to organize the formation.
They retreated, only to be stopped by a trench.
Just when Shen Mi was scolding, a person turned out on the other side, it was Gan Ning, but he listened to him:
"Hurry up and crawl here."
Shen Mi and the others woke up, immediately took off their armor, and began to rush down the ravine and climb up. But the trench was so deep that they struggled to climb it after a wooden ladder and rope had been lowered on it.
When they were about to cross the ravine, Xu Huang on the opposite side led people to kill.
At this time, Xu Huang was hot and bloody, and his hair was also stained with some minced meat. Even though he had just come down from the killing field at the moment, and his adrenaline was soaring, Xu Huang still kept calm.
He stopped his subordinates who were about to take advantage of the situation and observed the situation in front of him.
I saw that the deep ditch in front of me directly cut off the valley road, which was eight feet wide and seven or eight feet deep, and then all the soil was pushed on the south side, making the height difference of the ditch more than one zhang.
Such a trench was obviously not dug up in a hurry by those Yizhou soldiers, so reinforcements must have come from the opposite side.
When Xu Huang was observing, his fighting general Gao Ao suggested:
"Captain, when we just chased after us, there was a peach forest, and I will take the brothers to cut down and make ladders now."
With such a deep trench in front of you, you can't climb it without a ladder.
But Xu Huang shook his head:
"There should be reinforcements coming from the other side, let's stay here first. Then go back to the camp and tell the king what is going on here, so that he may decide. ”
Gao Ao nodded, and flew back with a few subordinates who were good at riding.
At this time, a general was discharged from the opposite side, shouting through the trench:
"I don't know which Tarzan general is on the other side?"
Xu Huang did not pay attention to the other side, but continued to observe the situation of the nearby mountains and forests, and saw that many birds in the distance did not fall, and once again deepened his judgment.
And just when Xu Huang was silent, the person opposite raised his voice and roared:
"You don't know your name? Do you dare to fight in the trenches? ”
Xu Huang still didn't speak.
After a short silence, the other side was a little embarrassed, and said in a bad tone:
"How can I have the courage of the Taishan Army, but I didn't think of such a rat? Since you don't dare to fight, and you don't retreat, are you here to see off our army? ”
And this person's words were accompanied by gongs and drums to announce the sky, the sound of killing shook the ground, and some warriors who were obviously dressed as barbarians danced a war dance directly on the dirt slope of the trench, full of fighting spirit.
Xu Huang's slender eyes had already narrowed, and suddenly, he said to Xu Shang of the former army:
"Dig the earth, fill in the trenches."
Xu Shang received the order and personally led 500 people to dig the soil and prepare to fill the trench.
The other side still looked like this, because under normal circumstances, there were no tools, and those Taishan troops wanted to dig hard. But they didn't know how complete a fully formed Assault would be.
Not to mention things like earth pickaxes, even awls and hammers, the Flying Tiger Army has them.
As a result, the Yizhou soldiers on the opposite side saw the other party pushing up layers of soil bags, ready to fill the ravine at any time.
Just as Xu Huang was about to give the order to fill the gully, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly broke out again on the opposite side, only this time it was not from the opposite side, but from the mountains on both sides.
With the sound of gongs and drums, two large flags were waved up.
On one side is "General Liu", and on the other side is "Captain Li of Longxi".
When Xu Huang saw these two flags, his face was very ugly, and finally snorted:
"Withdraw your troops!"
Xu Shang was puzzled, but still carried out the military order.
In this way, the Taishan army, which was supposed to prepare for a battle, retreated cleanly after a while.
As a result, the sound of the drum horn on the opposite side became louder.
……
On the way to retreat, Xu Shang was holding his breath and puzzled, and he finally couldn't help but ask Xu Huang:
"Captain, aren't we going to fight? Why did you suddenly stop fighting? ”
Xu Huang kept his face black and didn't speak, and he was also thinking about things. After listening to Xu Shang's words, he asked rhetorically:
"Do you know who those two flags are?"
Xu Shang thought for a while, and said uncertainly:
"That Captain Longxi should be Li Dao of the Liangzhou Army. But who the left general Liu is, the last general really doesn't know. ”
Xu Huang nodded, straight to the point:
"Your rank is not enough, and some information in the army is not clear. Then General Zuo Liu should be Liu Bei! ”
Xu Shang obviously knew the name and the weight behind it.
Because they didn't care much about it, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei still knew the prestige they had killed on the battlefield of Cuihan. So Xu Shang asked:
"Then Liu Bei is not a Kwantung general? How did you get to Kansai? Could it be that Kanto will actually help Kansai? ”
Xu Huang didn't know, he was also worried about this, so he didn't dare to do it.
He also thought about whether the opposite side was suspicious, but he only considered the state of his subordinates, as long as there were one or two thousand reinforcements on the other side, he probably couldn't bear it.
So it's better to retreat for the time being, he believes that the king will have a more accurate answer.
……
And after Xu Huang and the others retreated cleanly, the Kansai general, who was brave in front of the battle, retreated to the rear with a few other people.
On the slope there, a banner given by the little emperor himself, with four characters written on it:
"Optimus Prime!"
There are two small flags on the left and right, both of which are handwritten by Liu Bei, and one flag reads:
"Kuang Fu Han Room."
Another flag reads:
"Serve the country with loyalty."
And under such a banner, one person sits upright in Maza, three locks of long hair facing the wind, and both hands hold the axe, a heroic spirit.
This person is Liu Bei.
And standing behind him was Zhang Fei, who was like a god general, holding a horse pole in his hand, and Chen Zhiyi, who was holding a gold seal, left and right.
And when those Kansai people came, Liu Bei just raised his head, and then smiled lightly, just like the face of the Buddha in the spring breeze.
Touched by this, the Kansai general at the head immediately took the three people behind him to bow down and shouted:
"I'm Ganning." "I'm stern." "I'm Shen Mi." "I'm Zhang Ren."
"General Xie Zuo's rescue."
The four of them raised their heads, looked at Liu Bei, and then smiled at each other.
Mrs. is self-reliant, and her own heroes and heroes rush into the sea to help each other.
This is the case, just like that!
