Chapter 757: Flames Spread

"It's not for everyone to warn now, but once the Xijing army retreats, we are giving a warning, so that we can use this to inform the Long Army, and when retreating, the Dragon Army has been killed, and the Xijing Army has no flawless news about who put it. Besides, everyone had agreed to the decision to make a living under the Dragon Heavenly King before, so what good could they do if they just brought nothing to the past? It's just that we people are running through the doors, and we try not to be empty-handed." Lou Heyang saw that several people showed fear, so she comforted her.

Women are always more patient, and under Lou Heyang's constant encouragement, everyone's concerns are not so serious, and they have made a unanimous decision.

Lou Heyang wanted to warn the Long Army and make a contribution, at least for himself and his father to reach the territory of the Dragon Heavenly King, so that their eyes would not be dark.

But in reality, some changes in the Xijing Army have also been noticed by the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion who have been monitoring them all the time.

Especially around the Xijing Army camp, more patrol cavalry continued to appear, and this abnormal movement was obviously an abnormal embodiment.

"Drone lift-off." After Yang Jingyun, commander of the second reconnaissance battalion, gave an order, dozens of drones took off into the air, monitoring every move of the Xijing Army from the air.

There are problems on the outside and inside, and Yin Yuhu doesn't know anything about these.

He slept all afternoon and didn't get up until it was almost dark.

Not only Yin Yuhu, but many Xijing troops slept in the afternoon, preparing for the retreat at night.

When it was almost dark, the Xijing army had dinner, an hour earlier than usual. And this abnormal movement was seen by Lou Heyang, and she had a premonition that something big was going to happen.

"The Xijing Army is about to escape, everyone goes and prepares. Go and inform more people and tell them that if the Xijing army doesn't take us away when they leave, we shouldn't follow us, otherwise it will be more dangerous. Instead, we should hold together collectively, and when the army pursued by the dragon army comes, we must not be the enemy of them, and we must get out of the way in time and let the dragon army pass, so that we can be regarded as making some contributions."

Under Lou Heyang's prodding, more and more people got the news and began to prepare silently.

The movements of the Xijing Army are all under the surveillance of drones. After Yang Jingyun, the commander of the second reconnaissance battalion, learned that the Xijing Army had dinner an hour earlier than usual, he immediately reported it to Su Shi.

In Dingzhou City, Su Shi, who got the news, quickly had his own judgment, "Calculate the days, the news of the fall of Xijing City should have come, so Yin Yuhu is likely to withdraw his troops, and there is a high probability that the withdrawal will happen tonight."

"Inform all armies, eat in advance, check equipment, and be ready for battle at any time."

Su Shi immediately made a decision, the military order was issued, and Ji Zhu and Fang Jiugui, who had already rushed back from the direction of Xianzhou City, also ordered to start making various preparations.

The night did not change in the slightest because of the change in the situation of the war, the sun still set on time, and the moon slowly rose to shine on the earth in its place.

As night fell, the line of sight was blocked, and the Xijing army, which had already been notified, began to withdraw in an orderly manner.

The first to leave was a force of 5,000 foot soldiers, who were to serve as the vanguard of the retreat, to clear the way for the army, and then successfully retreat to the Datong River Bridge in Ningyuan City, occupy there, and do the work of receiving the retreat of the army.

The five thousand soldiers retreated, and this movement was naturally not small. Of course, all this cannot be concealed from the 200,000 people who accompanied the army.

Seeing that the Xijing army really began to retreat, many people became more convinced of Lou Heyang in their hearts, and they obediently did not step forward to follow, but kept a distance from it.

What the people did, the Xijing army may have noticed, or maybe they didn't pay attention at all. But as Lou Heyang analyzed before, the retreating army had no time to care about other things, in their eyes, a safe retreat was the first priority, and everything else was a trivial matter.

Especially the people, in their eyes, this is not a human being at all. Because as long as there is land, the people can be summoned at any time. If these people in front of them don't get in the way, they will be killed. As for getting them to follow, that's even more impossible.

These people can't be compared with the Xijing army when they can't eat enough, and with them, isn't it just slowing down the speed of the army's retreat?

The first 5,000-year-old Xijing Army left smoothly, and the other retreating Xijing troops began to retreat one by one after each received a certain amount of military rations. In the process, the dragon army didn't seem to notice their unusual behavior.

This is naturally not because the Long Army did not find out, there are high-altitude drones as eyes, and the actions of the Xijing Army have long fallen in the eyes of Battalion Commander Yang Jingyun. But he only sent the information back from time to time, and other things were not for him to question and command. Look at the book

It was Su Shi who really commanded this big battle.

Su Shi did not give the order to attack the enemy as soon as he began to retreat, because he had a bigger plan.

Just escaped with five thousand foot soldiers, and this bait couldn't satisfy Su Shi's appetite at all. Besides, in the rear of the enemy, Su Shi had already ambushed the army, only five thousand people, let them run for a while, but they still couldn't escape from the palm of his hand.

Yin Yuhu didn't know anything about all this.

He sent these 5,000 foot soldiers first to fight the vanguard and open the way for the army, and at the same time, he also had the intention of testing the dragon army.

He didn't know if his withdrawal had already been discovered by the Dragon Army, and he sent these 5,000 people to see if the Dragon Army would find out.

Now, the five thousand foot soldiers walked smoothly and were not hindered in any way, which made Yin Yuhu very happy. At that moment, the retreat orders followed one after another, except for Yin Ge with 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 foot soldiers, the other nearly 50,000 troops began to retreat.

It was this surge that went back and went wrong.

Even if it is a retreat, everyone knows that the one who withdraws first is considered safe, and those who withdraw later are likely to face the pursuit of the dragon army.

Especially when it was a retreat in the dark, after everyone had this consensus, they all rushed to retreat outward, and the formation quickly became chaotic.

Not every army is as disciplined as the Dragons.

It's not that any army is like the dragon army, with high morale, good treatment, and the same people.

Among the soldiers of the Xijing Army, many of them joined the army just to have enough to eat. In order to survive, these people will inevitably be selfish.

The order to withdraw was given, but anyone with a little brain knew that this was the defeat of the army.

That is, if you want to lose, of course, it is better to withdraw first. Otherwise, they may be left behind, or even killed on the battlefield.

In order not to be left behind, in the dark night, the originally orderly armies quickly became chaotic, and there were also cases of cavalry and foot soldiers fighting each other and killing each other.

That is, the people were well-behaved and sensible, and they didn't think about letting the army take them away, and watched from afar, so they didn't come close and were not killed by mistake.

"Set fire."

Seeing that the Xijing army really began to retreat, Lou Heyang, who had been observing everything, took the lead in lighting a lit torch towards the temporary military tent where he lived.

Not only Lou Heyang, but also many people are also doing the same. For a while, the fire ignited, illuminating the entire barracks, although it could not be as daytime, but it could still make people see the actions of the Xijing army in the camp.

"Bastard, who lit the fire?" Yin Yuhu was riding on a horse and had just left the barracks, when he saw the continuous fire burning behind him, he said angrily. "Go, send someone to inform Yin Ge, find out if there is a female insider, if so, kill!"

Originally, the nest was lost, and the two armies were defeated separately, which made Yin Yuhu very angry. At this time, he found that his family had betrayed him, how could he bear it, so he issued a military order to his henchmen.

The fire suddenly rose up, and in the eyes of Yin Ge, who was left, it also made him very angry.

At this time, the order of the king of Xijing was just given, and Yin Ge hurriedly sent someone to investigate. After all, not all the people are of the same mind, and some people still have illusions about wanting to curry favor with the Xijing Army, hoping that the other party can take them with them when they leave.

Someone told the secret, and Lou Heyang and others were exposed.

"Go, get all these people, and I'll make an example of them." Knowing that it was actually done by the people, Yin Ge was furious

If he wants to kill someone, he wants to kill these 200,000 people, and he wants to let others know about the fate of offending the Xijing army.

As soon as the order to arrest people was given, there was a sound of vibration on the ground, and the dragon army iron cavalry was dispatched.

According to Su Shi's meaning, they should wait for the Xijing army to withdraw farther, and the farther away from the barracks, the lower the possibility that they want to concentrate. Anyway, the night is long, and there is plenty of time.

But the fire that suddenly broke out in the Xijing military camp, for fear of change, Su Shi launched an attack in advance.

The fire ignited, which illuminated the movements of the Xijing army, but also made them panicked, and hastened the enemy's plan to escape. If the army does not move again, it will be difficult for them to catch up with the enemy.

The system exchanged 20,000 Mongolian horses, costing Su Shi a lot of faith points. But for the sake of victory in this big battle, everything is worth it.

With the addition of 20,000 Mongolian horses, the 20,000 assistant peasant soldiers were all equipped with war horses, and more than 20,000 cavalry charged with all their might.

The charge of more than 20,000 cavalry, the huge movement it caused, also made Yin Ge's complexion change greatly, with only 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 foot soldiers, he knew that he would not be the opponent of the Dragon Army. Stay and die or die.

In order to survive, Yin Ge gave up the idea of defense, turned around and fled with five thousand cavalry, and as for the five thousand foot soldiers who remained, they could only ask for more blessings.

Ji Zhu took the lead, charging ahead, and at his side was the elite division of a thousand black cavalry reinforced battalions.

As the strongest black cavalry in the formed army under Su Shi, on the battlefield, he has always been on the front line. This time was no exception, as the first cavalry army to rush in, as far as Ji Zhu could see, there were all people who surrendered and knelt on the ground, and there were some foot soldiers of the Xijing Army who threw away their weapons and also knelt on the ground.
