In the military tent, there should be a school.

I heard that Chen Mo convened the generals to discuss the matter, and the generals of the Chu army and the remaining generals of the Yue army were there, in addition to the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dead Wood of the Yin and Yang Family.

"The King of Mobei is here."

Seeing Chen Mo coming, all the generals present got up one after another and looked at the python-robed young man.

Even the dead wood can get up, and as for the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, he has always been standing.

At this moment, accompanied by Ye Yiren, Li Wanqiu, Xue Rou, Nangong Jinse, and Du Zijin, Chen Mo entered the big tent, met the eyes of the generals, and bowed slightly.

After Chen Mo came to the handsome case, he sat down in a python robe, and under the sword eyebrows, his sharp eyes like an eagle falcon inspected the generals present, swept over the faces of those who were eager to try, or cold, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was shocked: "Generals, breaking the enemy is today."

When the generals in the military tent heard this, their hearts moved slightly, and their faces were full of joy.

Chen Mo said: "The king of Zhenxi has sent news that the northeast has won a great victory, occupying the three cities of Southern Zhou Yuancheng, Nanzhao, and Montenegro, and the news has reached the Southern Zhou Jing Division, and the enemy army will definitely divide its troops to deal with it, and the time to break the enemy has appeared."

As soon as these words came out, the generals were shocked, and the hands holding the waist knife couldn't help but tremble, it was not unstoppable excitement.

Xu Lie stepped forward before, bowed down and clenched his fists, and asked for his life to be the vanguard.

The generals also took action.

Chen Mo groaned and said, "The cavalry army reorganized its troops and horses, and coordinated with the Heavenly Master Army to attack the left flank. General Xu, you lead 20,000 troops to enter the right flank of the palace with Deadwood, Li Wanqiu, and Xuerou, and the other generals follow Ye Yiren and Donghuang Taiyi to attack the front. This king leads the Chinese army to suppress the battle for you, and all the generals, make meritorious deeds, and seal the wife and son, at this time."

The generals in the military tent looked pale, and they should have spoken in unison.

With the orderly dispatch of the Chu army, like a highly operating machine, a large number of soldiers armed with bows and crossbow blades attacked the defense line established by the Southern Zhou army.

And Yu Zhongcheng, who was commanding on the cottage established in the dense forest, was naturally keenly aware of the movement of the Chu army. Look at the book

On the wooden watchtower built with wooden beams in all directions, Yu Zhongcheng was dressed in armor, looking at the large Chu army that appeared on the plain, his brows were furrowed, and a look of doubt appeared on his face.

Next to him, Deng Baiqing, who was not allowed to become the deputy commander, but regarded himself as the deputy commander, said curiously: "The Chu army has been holding Huaiyuan for so many days and has not moved, and at this moment, it suddenly makes a large-scale dispatch, what happened?"

Yu Zhongcheng shook his head and said, "But in this battle of the Chu army, it seems that the whole army is attacking, and there is still one thing to take us down in one go?"

Just when the two of them were confused.

"Newspaper." A soldier hurriedly came to the bottom of the watchtower, knelt down on one knee, held a scroll in his hand, and said, "Commander, Your Highness, Jingshi is in a hurry."

"Read." Yu Zhongcheng's right eyelid throbbed violently at this moment, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

Yu Zhongcheng's personal soldiers took the scroll from the hands of the soldiers, opened it and read it: "Yu Aiqing, on September 16, the king of Zhenxi suddenly appeared on the northeast border of our country, broke through the three cities of my country's original city, Nanzhao, and Montenegro, and went all the way south, for the ......."

After listening to all the above content, Yu Zhongcheng, Deng Baiqing, and Dao Feizi and others next to him all changed their faces.

The king of Zhenxi also led his army to attack.

The state of Chu turned out to be a two-front march.

Having just experienced civil strife, court changes, the replacement of old and new forces, the ascension of the new emperor to the throne, and the dispatch of troops to cross the country, the weak state of Chu can have so many logistical support to march on two fronts?

What is the food and accommodation of the treasury of the state of Chu?

They are doubts.

But now that things have happened, according to Emperor Huanping's meaning, that is, the current elite of the Southern Zhou Dynasty is on the side of Zhongcheng, and the imperial court has no generals to send to resist the king of Zhenxi in the north.

In order not to be divided into forces to reduce the strength of the confrontation.

Emperor Huan Ping asked Yu Zhongcheng to retreat to the Huai River.

At that time, the imperial court will send all its troops to garrison the Huai River, and intercept the armies of the king of Zhenxi and the king of Mobei outside the Huai River to make a decision

Fight to the death.

"Commander Yu, are we really going to retreat?" Deng Baiqing frowned, he didn't want to withdraw from the army, he came to the front line with the forbidden army, and he was unwilling to withdraw from the army before a battle was fought.

"That's all there is to it for now."

As the commander of the first army, Yu Zhongcheng can naturally understand the dilemma in His Majesty's heart at this moment, and if he does not retreat, when the king of Zhenxi penetrates the north all the way and occupies the Huai River, then he can easily cut their back road and cut off their supplies.

At that time, under the attack with Chen Mo, they will have to be dumplings.

"However, if we withdraw our troops as soon as we lose the battle, even if we retreat to the Huai River, it will be a great blow to our morale, and it will be difficult for the army to hold the Huai River when the army is unstable." Deng Baiqing said.

Yu Zhongcheng also understands this.

However, the lesser of two ends of the two sides will definitely benefit from withdrawing troops than not withdrawing from them.

However, Yu Chengzhong didn't want to delay any more time to explain, and said, "This is Your Majesty's will, does Your Highness want to disobey?"

Deng Baiqing was silent and had to do so.

However, when Zhongcheng arranged who would lead the army to the queen of the palace, Deng Baiqing asked for an order: "Commander, the last general will take the forbidden army to the queen of the palace."

"No." Yu Chengzhong directly refused, not to mention that Deng Baiqing is His Majesty's brother-in-law, just the 20,000 forbidden troops, that is the elite of the elite, let the elite troops be the queen, this is not done by a qualified general at all.

But Deng Baiqing always insisted on being the queen of the palace.

There was no way, Yu Chengzhong could only agree, and let Dao Feizi and Cang Songzi be responsible for protection.

Soon, the horn of the withdrawal resounded in the dense forest.

"Woo!"

"Woo!"

「…」

The whole army retreats!

And the so-called queen of the palace is not to stick to one place and cover the retreat of the large army motionlessly, but not to fight and not to run, unlike the large army, just run forward at full speed, not to care about the back.

On the plain, Xu Lie and the others heard the horn sound of the Southern Zhou, and when they saw that the voice was low, not the kind of high, they knew that the Southern Zhou was withdrawing the army, and hurriedly led the cavalry to run it over.

The Ye people were afraid of being ambushed, so they sent Hei Wu to fly up to the sky to check.

After confirming that the Southern Zhou was really withdrawing and leaving only one army behind, he also accelerated the speed of the pursuit.

The other side.

Deng Baiqing naturally won't be stupid, and he doesn't know how to be flexible.

After the army withdrew from the mountains and forests, Deng Baiqing directly ordered the guards to set fire to the mountains.

Use the sea of fire to delay the pursuit of the Chu army.

However, the speed of the cavalry was extremely fast, and it was always crushing behind the Southern Zhou army, and when the fire spread to the entire mountain forest, Ye Yiren and Donghuang Taiyi had already rushed out from the front with the cavalry.

At that time, the troops led by Xu Lie and Li Wanqiu need to bypass this mountain forest.
