Chapter 923 also withdraw first
The more than 5,000 men under Ye Xian's troops were still marching leisurely at this time. According to Ye Xian's guess, Mu Yunba's troops were only half a day to a day's journey away from him.
He didn't notice anything strange along the way. In his opinion, Mu Yunba would not immediately join the battle even if he arrived at Shuofeng battlefield, so he was not in a hurry.
"Da da da~"
There was a rapid sound of horse hoofbeats, and a series of small black dots were approaching quickly in the distance. They were the scouts of the Yan army.
"Stop!" He frowned and waved his hand first. Looking at the scout's demeanor, it seemed like something had happened.
The scout commander who went to explore the road ahead said rather hastily: "General, there are a large number of Liang troops ahead, coming towards us."
"What, Liang Jun?" Ye Xian looked stunned: "Are you sure you read it correctly?"
Shouldn't there be Mu Yunba's 10,000 men in front of him? Why did Liang's army suddenly appear?
"Confirmed! Under the banner of Snow White Guard, without any traces hidden, they were running on the avenue." The commander who came back nodded affirmatively: "Our scouts also fought with their outposts, and we suffered some casualties on each other."
Ye Xian stopped hesitating, turned around and shouted: "The entire army is on alert!"
"promise!"
The originally long marching team suddenly became nervous. Rows of cavalrymen came forward with guns in hand and formed a cavalry formation on the huge plain.
Many soldiers were in a daze and were unaware of what was happening.
A deputy general galloped to Ye Xian's side and said hesitantly: "General, something is wrong. Shouldn't the White Snow Guards be attacking Krecha's headquarters? How could they bypass General Mu Yun and appear here?"
"Yeah~ I'm afraid the situation may have changed."
Ye first squinted his eyes and shook his head. Although he didn't know what was happening in front of him, an unknown premonition arose from the bottom of his heart.
After a while, the ground in front of Yan's army began to tremble slightly, and a snow-white armor that matched the sky appeared in Ye Xian's field of vision.
Ye first sighed: "It is indeed Bai Xuewei~"
Lin Xian, who was in front of the cavalry, raised his hand gently, and the five thousand cavalrymen stopped their horses in an instant. Several flowing white military flags showed their identities.
"There aren't many people."
Lin Xian looked at the group of cavalry with interest, his face a little tired.
In fact, the five thousand white snow guards under this hand were also exhausted. They first took Mu Yunba in circles for a long time, their nerves were tense all the time, and then they hurriedly traveled all night to get here.
If it weren't for his lack of physical strength, Lin Xian would have wanted to fight with them, but at this moment it was not only a matter of physical strength, but also the soldiers were running out of arrows in their quivers.
Therefore, Lin Xian had no intention of starting a war. He was thinking that if this group of Yan troops attacked, he would lead them in circles and delay them for as long as possible. If that didn't work, he would engage in close combat.
He first stared at the Liang army, the anger in his eyes gradually rising. His father and many other clan soldiers died in the hands of the Liang army.
Since taking refuge in Muyun Duankang, Ye Xian has been fighting for the Yan people against other rebel tribes, serving as a small lieutenant in the army. This is the first time that Ye Xian meets the Liang army. His hand holding the spear tightens, and the horse's hooves
It was scratched and scraped on the sand.
A murderous aura slowly rose from Ye Xian's chest.
"General, think twice."
The lieutenant general on the side saw this and wanted to start a fight first, and quickly warned: "The enemy's situation is unknown, so we can't underestimate the enemy and rush in. What if this Liang army is holding us back, and there are other ambushes?"
The man who had just been getting ready to go hesitated for a moment, and his whole body was relieved. He shook his head helplessly and said: "Looking at Bai Xuewei's posture, General Mu Yun is probably in danger."
The lieutenant general was startled and murmured in disbelief: "You mean, Liang Jun is here?"
"That's right."
He also nodded first and said: "Liang Jun has played a big chess game. He wants to kill our 10,000 cavalry just like that."
Ye Xian was originally trained by his grandfather as the successor of the tribe. His military talent was obvious, otherwise he would not have been taken under Mu Yunduankang's command.
He just thought deeply and figured it out. He was afraid that the entire war was a bait set by Liang's army, with the purpose of eating Mu Yunba's 10,000 cavalry.
The thousands of white snow guards in front of him were here to stop him. In other words, the battle to encircle and annihilate Mu Yunba had already begun, and had even come to an end.
The lieutenant general trembled involuntarily. Ten Thousand Cavalry were ambushed! He realized the importance of the problem and asked in a deep voice: "Then what should we do? Kill him and support General Mu Yun?"
"Whoosh!"
Just as he was considering whether to break into Liang Jun's cavalry formation, a crossbow arrow fell from the sky and hit a position seven or eight steps in front of the two of them. The snow-white arrow tail could clearly be seen shaking rapidly.
Ye Xian's face instantly turned livid.
Provocation, naked provocation!
In the distance, Lin Xian put down his crossbow with a smile on his face. He could see that this Yan army did not seem to have any intention of starting a war.
Then he will overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum.
He also exhaled a breath of turbid air first and said softly: "Withdraw the troops."
The deputy general's eyes bulged and he asked in astonishment: "Withdraw troops? Leave General Mu Yun alone?"
He also first stretched out his spear and pointed it at the Liang army on the opposite side, and analyzed in a deep voice: "Since the Liang army has made up its mind to eat these 10,000 cavalry, it means that their military strength is sufficient. Otherwise, how could they find thousands of cavalry to intercept them?"
us?
We only have these five thousand men left in our hands. Even if we can completely wipe out the Baixue Guards on the opposite side, how many will we have left? One thousand? Two thousand? What's the point of rushing through? It's nothing more than adding another stroke to Liang Jun's credit book.
.Besides, can we really win this fight?"
The lieutenant general was silent. He knew that what he said first was right. No one else would be willing to die in vain.
"withdraw troops!"
Seeing that the deputy general had no objection, he turned around and shouted: "Send a few teams of scouts to patrol around to see the results of the battlefield ahead."
The five thousand Yan army remained vigilant and retreated like a tide.
As for Ye Xian, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In fact, he was a little selfish.
Mu Yunba was an arrogant person who relied on his royal status. He always looked down on generals from other factions, especially generals from other tribes like him. He didn't even look at himself in the eyes.
Today, he fell into a heavy siege by Liang's army. How could Ye Xian risk his life to save him? Others might have risked their lives to see it, but Mu Yunba, haha, let him
Go face Liang Jun's scimitar by yourself.
"Huh, I don't have any courage at all. Let's leave now." Lin Xian, who was far away, saw this scene and curled his lips with some disdain.
This is the gap between the Liang Army and them. When the Red Flame Army was trapped in a tight siege, Bai Xuewei had to rush in to save people even if he risked the entire army being wiped out.
The Liang army comrades all entrusted each other with their lives.
