Chapter 423: Shock
"Bastard, do you know what you're talking about?" Pan Bao kicked the herald in front of him to the ground, and the generals around him also looked at the herald lying on the ground motionless in horror. Everyone's face showed an unconcealable fear, their rear, the big rear, their supply base Jingzhou City was unknowingly occupied by the Liu family's military gods.
"What about Qiao Yi of the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion?What does that bastard eat?!" Pan Bao has completely rammed away, the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion was arranged in Changsha, what was prevented was the hand of the Liu Family's army, and in their eyes there was never a foolproof war, otherwise the First Emperor would not have won the world with only 3,000 troops. relied on the unparalleled strategic vision of those under him.
"Marshal, the Qiao family has now formed an in-law with Zhou Yu, and the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion has rebelled. Changsha City has been completely under martial law, and Gonggong Zhang's people have all been killed by Qiao Yi!" The herald was lying on the ground covered in blood, his tone was about to cry, he was just going to the rear to urge for food, but he didn't expect to see that Jingzhou City had been replaced by the banner of the Liu Family's army, and he turned back almost without hesitation, but he was intercepted and killed by the people of the Fifth Praetorian Guard Regiment halfway, and finally escaped back.
Pan Leopard's face turned pale in an instant, what kind of words is this, he has rebelled, he has rebelled. This is the first rebellion of the Praetorian Guard, the rebellion of 300,000 people in the entire legion, Zhang Rang spared no expense in order to control the Janissary Army of the empire, all the corps commanders, division commanders, and captains can be said to be Zhang Rang's cronies. Qiao Yi thought that it would definitely not be a matter of a day or two to mutiny, otherwise it would never be possible to raise the flag and rebel in a short period of time.
Pan Bao sat weakly in his chair. The generals around him all bowed their heads. Several generals even looked carefully at the map. Jingzhou City was lost, and once they were defeated, they had to retreat along the Dragon Head Pass. The terrain of Longshou Pass is dangerous, but the road is not as smooth as Tiger Pass and Tong Pass, that is to say, if their army of more than one million people goes to Longshou Pass, once the Liu family army covers the rear from the rear, it is unimaginable, and where is the army that disappeared? If they are waiting for them at Longshou Pass, then the consequences, all the generals gasp when they think of this
"Marshal, now is not the time to hold anyone responsible. We must find a countermeasure as soon as possible, whether to send troops to recapture Jingzhou City or capture Jianye City, we must make a decision. Wang Ming brought the depressed Pan Leopard back to reality, if it was just the fall of Jingzhou City, Pan Leopard would not be like this, the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion stationed in Changsha was this trick, but the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion rebelled, and the nature was completely different.
"To recapture Jingzhou City, what are we going to take to take it? Are the 200,000 Yizhou Navy all decorations?" Pan Bao's heart was not furious, the rebellion of the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion. It almost made Pan Leopard's entire combat jihua abortive. The defection of the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion brought more than just the lack of a strong legion in his hands. What's more critical is that his back could face the attack of the Fifth Praetorian Guard at any time.
Attacking Jianye is now also an extravagant wish, not to mention that the defenders of Jianye City are united, just to say that when the news of the fall of Jingzhou City spreads, it is very doubtful that these Praetorian Guards can still have any combat effectiveness. Fighting a civil war has never been what these proud Praetorian Guard soldiers want, they want to make meritorious contributions in the national war, and they reject such a civil war from the bottom of their hearts, but the military law of the Praetorian Guard is still there, and these soldiers are just acting on orders.
"Attacking Jianye City will not work at all, the 200,000 Jingzhou Navy that has received the news may attack our rear at any time, even if we can defend against them, but what about the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion? Where are they?"
"Immediately inform the nets of Jingzhou City, no matter what method they use, they must contain the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion in Changsha City!" Pan Bao ordered loudly: "Send an order to the guards of Longshou Pass, let him immediately dredge the road from Longshou Pass to Jingzhou, we need to retreat at any time." ”
"Report!" Just as the generals were about to go out, suddenly a herald ran over, knelt on one knee, and said in a very frightened tone: "Report to the commander, the vanguard of the Fifth Praetorian Guard has appeared in the rear of our army, and most of them are less than a hundred kilometers away from us. ”
Hiss, everyone gasped, and the Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion advanced in the direction where Jianye City was located, what they wanted was to contain their forces and not give them the opportunity to attack Jianye City with all their might. One hundred kilometers, the Fifth Praetorian Guard Corps will be able to rush behind them in two days, that is, the time for them to attack Jianye City is only two days, if they can't take Jingzhou City in two days, then what awaits them is to be surrounded on all sides.
"Marshal, the main force of the rebels has set off from Huiji, and the vanguard troops in front of us are already less than fifty kilometers away, and they have already engaged our scouts. Before Pan Bao gave the order, another soldier rushed in, knelt on the ground and said to Pan Bao, Pan Bao was completely stunned, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart for this storming of Jianye City, but now even a glimmer of hope was smashed by Liu Fan.
He was not afraid of Liu Fan's army, after all, compared to the battle-hardened Praetorian Guard, the difference between a group of recruits was not only combat effectiveness. However, the strength of Liu Fan's generals was too demonic, and Pan Bao was not sure that his army would not suddenly rush into their Chinese army when he attacked Jianye City. Pan Bao's face was pale, and all the generals were all embarrassed, and Liu Jiajun was one ring after another, not giving them a chance to react at all.
Pan Bao sat on the chair decadently, looking at the generals below with blank eyes, all of them pale. The bravery of the generals of the Liu family army has been deeply experienced one by one, and if they gather together to charge the battle, it is definitely not something they can stop. Now that the position of the two legions they are concentrated in the city seems to be a dilemma, the strategy of encircling the point and sending reinforcements has now become that they are dumplings by the enemy.
"Marshal, now let's think about a way out, what are the forces on all sides of the other party, I beware of those Jingzhou troops rushing first. Wang Ming stood next to Pan Bao and bit the three words of Jingzhou Army very hard, and the relationship between Su Fei and Kuai Tong and Zhang Rang was very tense. When mobilizing the Jingzhou army, Zhang Rang specially ordered the two to follow the Jingzhou army, but instead concentrated the power of Jingzhou to the assassin Shi Qiaoxuan, but he never imagined that it was such a person who was chosen by him as his in-law to betray him.
Jingzhou Army, as soon as Jingzhou City was occupied, Jingzhou Army became an unstable factor. Especially in the relationship between Su Fei and Kuaitong and Zhang Rang, it is not so harmonious on the surface. If the Liu family army sent someone to contact the two at this time, it was likely that when the other party had not yet killed, their own army would first start infighting.
"Someone, send an order to let the Jingzhou army immediately leave the camp of the Praetorian Guards, garrison the east and west gates of Jianye City, and the Praetorian Guards are all concentrated at the north and south gates. Pan Bao quickly issued an order, as long as he could break away from the Jingzhou army, even if these Jingzhou troops were infighting, the Praetorian Guards would at least be able to retreat along the Dragon Head Pass.
"Who's making noise outside?" Just as the generals were agreeing on the battle strategy, there was a sudden commotion outside the big tent, and the voices became more and more fierce. A general walked out of the tent, and the noise outside not only did not subside, but became more and more noisy.
"Dashuai, it's not good, the soldiers under him are making trouble. Fan Hu, the division commander of the Third Praetorian Guard Regiment, hurriedly walked in and said to Pan Bao with a pale face: "They don't want to fight, and they ask the commander to withdraw immediately." ”
"Bastard, where are they doing this to the military law of the Empire, and someone will pull down all the troublemakers and cut them down for me!" Pan Bao was already furious at the moment, the enemy had not yet come, and his army was the first to mess up, which had never happened in the history of the Empire's Praetorian Guard.
"The marshal is angry, if you kill like this, it is very likely to inspire a mutiny!" Pan Bao's order was placed, and the faces of the generals around him changed, if you kill like this, it is strange that those soldiers who are making trouble do not mutiny! )
