Chapter 758: Take Zhangzhou in one go
On a vast grassland, the Loulan army looked extremely embarrassed, and the banner was crooked.
The soldiers were covered in blood.
They fled in a hurry, looking back from time to time to make sure there were no pursuers.
Lou Jindong was no exception, his face full of decadence and despair.
However, as the commander of the army, even in the face of the worst situation, he must boost his morale, not to mention, the group finally escaped, and their fate was saved.
"Take a break and wait for the rest of the soldiers."
Because when they rushed out, the soldiers were running for their lives in all directions, and they were scattered, and they had to regroup their ranks now, otherwise it would be even more dangerous once the rear chased them.
Fortunately, the Dayue army did not chase for the time being, the soldiers were lying on the grass to rest, Lou Jindong wanted to say a few words to boost morale, but the words came to his lips and couldn't speak.
Such a fiasco seemed to be in vain, and he also felt a little tired.
After a while, a general stepped forward and reported: "General Qiyu, the number of people has been counted, excluding the iron cavalry battalion, there are less than 40,000 left in the army." ”
What!
Lou Jindong's face was pale, before the war, there were 80,000 troops in the Iron Cavalry Battalion, and the Iron Cavalry Battalion was only 8,000 when it was full, even if the Iron Cavalry Battalion was removed, there were more than 70,000, even if it was 70,000, now there were less than 40,000 left, which means that more than 30,000 people were lost in this battle without including the Iron Cavalry Battalion.
If you count the Iron Cavalry Battalion, it is unimaginable.
The Iron Cavalry Battalion was heavily surrounded, and suffered the greatest losses, only fearing ......
At this moment, Lou Jindong's face was extremely pale, and at this moment, he could only pray in his heart, praying that there were more soldiers who did not arrive, but just dispersed.
Otherwise there are so many people, he simply ......
While he was thinking, soon, Lan Xingjun arrived with the sparse iron cavalry battalion, and learned that there were less than 1,800 iron cavalry battalions left, and Lou Jindong's teeth seemed to be crushed.
The same is true of the Lan march.
Before the war, although he didn't say anything about Lou Jindong's several defeats, he still looked down on him in his heart, but now, he lost even worse than the other party.
The unwillingness and frustration in my heart can be imagined.
"Otsuki! And that bullshit left the prince, and the general was going to crush them to ashes. ”
Lan Xingjun's teeth chattered, "General Lou, let's hurry back, unite the Hun army, and we will definitely kill the Dayue army." ”
"Good!"
Lou Jindong shouted.
Drive! Drive!!
However, at this moment, a fast horse in front of him came quickly, "Report! General Qiyulou, General Lan, Biandukou was lost, the enemy army had gone to Zhangzhou, and the king of Gran ordered the Lan soldiers to immediately lead the iron cavalry battalion back to defense. ”
"What did you say?"
Lou Jindong's face changed, "Didn't you say that King Gran had already agreed with the Xirong tribe?" ”
"My subordinates don't know, but the attacking enemy army is not the Xirong tribe, but the army of Lichao, please General Lan immediately return to defense."
The spy only cared about delivering the message, and he didn't realize the tragic situation of the group at the moment, the iron cavalry battalion was the most elite cavalry in Loulan, and the speed was fast.
The big reason why King Gran dared to move the defense line forward was because of this cavalry, Biandukou really had something, and with the speed of this cavalry, it was almost enough to return to the defense.
Of course, more importantly, he believed that Xirong would not dare to mess around, but how could he have thought that it was not the Xirong tribe that was killed, but the army of Lichao.
He would never have thought that this iron cavalry battalion that he was proud of was less than 2,000 at the moment, and all of them were remnants of the defeated army.
Rescue in such a situation?
Of course, the rescue must be saved, even if these people are exhausted, but Zhangzhou is the first pass in Loulan, and in the face of the first pass of Dayue Dali, it cannot be lost here.
Once this place is lost, Rouge Mountain Horse Farm has nothing to do with them.
They are not the Huns, there are large grasslands in Monan, and they only have Rouge Mountain, so ......
"The whole army obeys the order and goes all out to defend."
Lou Jindong gave an order.
It's just a pity that the soldiers have just experienced a big battle, and it was a fiasco, and the speed of the march is self-evident, even the iron cavalry battalion is not much faster.
Compared with the eagerness of these people, in the Rouge Mountain, the Dayue soldiers were jubilant.
Although they have won a few games before, they themselves know that there is a suspicion of ingenuity in winning, but today's battle is different, it is a real sword and a real gun, and they defeated the Loulan army in a dignified manner.
In this battle alone, they can face their relatives with their heads held high, and a sense of pride arises in the face of the people of Otsuki.
Yue Qingchen is naturally no exception, and the excitement on his face can't be dissolved.
Seeing this, the talented man casually asked, "I didn't sleep after a night, and I fought again, and I didn't go to rest and rest?" ”
Does this bastard care about himself? Who wants him to care, Yue Qingchen looked disdainful, but his heart was warm.
At this time, a soldier hurriedly came, "Princess Qiyu, concubine, the latest news, Biandukou has been lost, and the Loulan army has been defeated." ”
Yue Qingchen was stunned for a moment, "Biandukou? Impossible! The Xijon tribe ......"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something, and then looked at Lin Bai, who had told her about the Southwest Alliance before.
The corners of Lin Bai's mouth couldn't help but rise at this time, and the Dry Rice King was really fast.
With this guy's character, once he breaks through Biandukou, he is afraid that he will go straight to Zhangzhou, without further ado, although Zhangzhou is equivalent to an empty city, Lou Jindong and others have already gone.
Immediately, he looked at Yue Qingchen and said, "Since you don't want to rest, how about taking Zhangzhou in one go?" ”
Yue Qingchen's eyes were bright, in fact, he couldn't help it for a long time.
When the soldiers learned that they were going to attack Zhangzhou, they were all excited.
In the past, it had always been Otsuki who was beaten and passively defended, but now it has finally turned around, especially after such a big victory.
The morale of the soldiers is like a rainbow, and the killing intent is soaring.
Lin Bai immediately asked Yan Gang to lead five hundred soldiers, and Yue Qingchen also transferred five thousand cavalry from the army to support Yan Gang first.
The Great Army followed.
Yan Gang shouted an order, and led an iron horse to rush to Zhangzhou, rolling up billowing smoke and dust.
Lin Bai and Chasing the Moon and Yue Qingchen were also ready to go at this time.
Yue Qingchen's eyes shone with a fierce light.
Lin Bai glanced at her and knew that this Nizi's mother was killed in Zhangzhou, and now attacking Zhangzhou, her heart can be imagined.
After thinking about it, he comforted, "You are a general, stay calm, Zhangzhou can't run." ”
Yue Qingchen also sensed his gaffe, looked at Lin Bai, and nodded vigorously, "Hmm! ”
Then she didn't talk nonsense, the long sword pointed directly in the direction of Zhangzhou, and the mighty army also left.
At this moment, Zhangzhou has long been full of soldiers, and only some remaining soldiers are sticking to the city tower, and they are very nervous.
At this time, a large army slowly appeared in front.
