On the battlefield, in the middle of the army, outside the formation.
Xu Daofu's eyes widened and he looked motionlessly at the battle ahead. A sound of drums and horns sounded, and another large number of Tianshi Dao troops who failed to attack retreated dejectedly like a tide with unwillingness and disappointment.
, and another group of troops that had already formed a formation in front began to line up and move forward slowly, launching a new round of impact on the unmoving Jin army's battle formation in front.
About a hundred paces behind the newly launched attacking formation, the troops who were sitting and lying on the ground, eating and drinking, reluctantly got up and made preparations under the shouts and kicks of their officers.
Prepare to enter the position where the previous batch of troops were arrayed, and at the same time, give this one mile radius of open space to the batch of troops that just retreated to rest and regroup.
Sha Qianmo held the long-handled ax tightly in his hand and muttered: "It's my turn, it's my turn, Marshal Xu, why don't you let me get on?"
Xu Daofu shook his head gently: "Lao Sha, don't worry, your five thousand Lingnan elites are my last remaining force. They won't come until the critical moment. Now, the Jin army's formation has not collapsed yet.
Before the critical moment, once we reach 300 steps in front of the enemy's command tower, I will have you dispatched."
While he was talking, a dull sound of gongs sounded from behind the Jin army in front. There were corpses everywhere. The defense line stretched for 500 steps in front and back. The neat shield wall began to slowly move back, and then retreated another 50 steps.
On the left and right, and in the newly vacated place, the ground was stained with blood. Obviously, in the battle just now, the Jin army behind the shield had many casualties, but no corpses or wounded were left behind.
Sha Qianmo laughed: "Commander Xu, did you see that the Jin army couldn't stand it anymore and retreated again! Now we are only three hundred steps away from the commander's platform. Why don't you let me go up?"
Xu Daofu's eyelids twitched slightly, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Okay, Lao Sha, you now take your subordinates, go forward to the reserve team, spread out to the two wings, and wait for my order. If here
When three black flags are raised, it’s time for your troops to attack across the board!”
Sha Qianmo stomped his feet excitedly, picked up the giant ax, turned around and ran forward. Soon, the dense formation of Lingnan Fist Barbarians in front also began to move like a tide.
Xu Daofu breathed a long sigh of relief. At this moment, on the hill where he stood, there was no one else within a few dozen steps. There was only a person who looked like a messenger, still standing behind him, looking for a kill.
After Qianmo walked away, the man straightened up. Fellow Taoist Sangkun's face looked red under the light of the fire, but the shining eyes behind the human skin mask reminded this man.
His true identity is Tao Yuanming in black robe.
Xu Daofu looked back at the black robe and sighed: "Fellow Taoist Da Niu died like this. I didn't expect that he had been with you for so long and he didn't learn your caution."
The black robe said coldly: "Impulsiveness, directness, and recklessness are things that are engraved in the bones and flowing in the blood of the great cow. They cannot be changed by hanging around with me for a while. This is also his life. I let him
Don't rush too fast. In the end, he thought that after Tan Daoji was burned to death, he could do whatever he wanted, so he risked his life. How do you want me to save him?"
Having said this, the black robe curled up his lips: "However, I will miss him. After all, we have been together for nearly a year, and we have some feelings for him."
Xu Daofu's eyes narrowed slightly: "You want me to send reinforcements. I asked Li Nanfeng to take 3,000 troops to the rear army. Why do you have to come by yourself? You can't trust me?"
The black robe shook his head: "It's just like that with the rear army. You sent reinforcements, and the Jin army also sent more than a thousand people to help. They occupied the defense line and resisted. Songfeng charged several times but didn't come down.
I think Li Nanfeng may not be able to succeed, so instead of watching the battle there, why not come to your place."
Xu Daofu softly said "Oh": "Don't you still have three thousand shield barbarian tribesmen? You have been telling me for so long, and now when you really need to fight, you have been hiding them.
?”
The corner of the black-robed man's mouth curled up: "We haven't reached the critical decisive battle yet, aren't your general's guards and the Lingnan Fist Barbarians who killed Qianmo useless?"
Xu Daofu said coldly: "I'm talking about Heipao. We are all old acquaintances in the world. There is no need to say anything in this kind of situation. You and I have to save some final counterattack power, but we can't use it up all at once.
Otherwise, even if we have to withdraw in the end, there will be no one to protect us. As for your shield barbarians, once they appear on the battlefield, your identity will probably be found out, so you have been hiding your strength.
I can understand that too."
Heipao said coldly: "Yes, I do think so, but this time I also used all the troops in my hands except the clan members. Almost all the Longyou Qiang Di and the old Chu army officers and soldiers
The army has been wiped out, but I can understand why you keep the general's bodyguards here without using them, but those Lingnan barbarians, you treat them as your treasures and never go into battle, what do you think?"
Xu Daofu sighed: "I have to leave a way out for myself. If I really can't defeat Jingzhou this time, then I will attack Liu Yu again. There is almost no chance of winning. The final situation is to return to Lingnan, stick to the Five Ridges, and rely on Lingnan
The terrain, the miasma, and the miasma are all there to protect the last foothold."
The black robe shook his head: "Daofu, when did you become so hesitant? In my impression, you are the kind of person who goes forward bravely regardless of the situation and leaves no way for retreat. Why do you still have to fight if this battle doesn't go well?
Thinking of returning to Lingnan? Can Liu Yu let you go this time and let you separatist rule in Lingnan?"
Xu Daofu gritted his teeth: "I didn't learn this from you. If I had left no escape route every time and only thought about making a deal, I would have died countless times. The art of war is to win without thinking about it.
Think about defeat first. As a pawn or a chess piece, you have to move forward bravely and not think too much, but as the coach, I cannot completely ignore these things."
Having said this, Xu Daofu paused: "Lu Xun has been on guard against me since early in the morning. He has captured most of his old subordinates from the Wudi army. I can only develop local barbarians in Lingnan to join as fresh blood."
My subordinates, but this also has an advantage. The family members of Lu Xun's subordinates, even his father and family, are also in Guangzhou. I have already arranged for people to control them. These local barbarians are still there, which means that I still have control over Lingnan.
Now, even if I am defeated this time and return to Lu Xun, he cannot use the name of defeat to deal with me, so I have to keep these soldiers and horses that killed Qianmo for self-protection."
