The entire camp of the Baibo Army was built along the mountain, so it was very long and loosely built. It was at least three miles from the rear camp to the front camp. Fei Qian and Zhang Lie were following Huang Cheng, cleaning up some remaining camps.
Bai Bojun gradually felt that something was wrong...
Fei Qian stopped his horse and looked around.
At this time, Zhang Lie also took off the robes of the Baibo Army and put on the armor of the Han Army. He also pulled his horse, stopped with Fei Qian, and asked: "Fei Shijun, why did you stop?"
Fei Qian looked at the situation in front of him, then turned to look at the situation behind him. He seemed to have thought of something in his mind, but he couldn't quite put it into words. While he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eye.
Someone seems to be waving from the top of the hill on the left...
Fei Qian turned his head and looked around, and saw about a dozen people standing on the top of the mountain. They were waving their arms and seemed to be shouting something...
"...Book cart? Books?"
Fei Qian murmured and recited it several times, and suddenly he got excited and quickly grabbed Zhang Lie and said hurriedly: "Please order Uncle Ye to retreat immediately!"
Although Zhang Lie didn't understand why Fei Qian gave such an order, looking at Fei Qian's expression, he knew it was not the time to ask, so he took the order and urged his horse to rush towards Huang Cheng in front!
Fei Qian was anxious, hoping he could catch up...
I was still careless and too impatient.
After all, although the terrain here is somewhat similar to that of the Battle of Yiling, it was driven by mountain fire, not soldiers and horses like I used at this time. Moreover, it is spring again, and there is no chance of sparks like a hot summer day.
It can become a prairie fire, and Xiangling is blocked on the road. Although the Baibo Army is still defeated, his own strength is still too small. If the Baibo Army calms down...
At this time, Huang Cheng and his cavalry were already unable to run.
Originally, the Baibo Army was scattered in the camp, and the gaps between the tents were quite large. There was no problem for people and horses to shuttle between them. But now, all those who are not dead have been forced to the front camp. Therefore, the density of Baibo soldiers is very high.
It suddenly became a lot bigger...
Zhang Lie rode his horse, passed through the empty camp, caught up with Huang Cheng, and said: "Your Majesty has your order, retreat quickly!"
Although Huang Cheng was still a little doubtful, he did not hesitate. He immediately roared and started to circle with his cavalry, gradually getting out of the battle and retreating.
Not long after, Huang Cheng returned to the rear camp with his cavalry and met Fei Qian.
Fei Qian roughly counted the number of people and found that although they were driven away, there were still some injuries...
"Uncle Ye, gather the tents and other things in this place on the road, burn them and cut them off! Uncle Cheng, you lead the people outside the camp, go first and then retreat!"
Fei Qian saw that the group of about ten people on the top of the hill were still there, so he dismounted his horse and bowed to the top of the hill, expressing his gratitude for the previous reminder.
The group of people on the top of the mountain seemed to have returned the greeting and then disappeared, probably leaving.
Huang Cheng followed Fei Qian's movements and asked, "Mr. Lang, who is this?"
"I don't know..." Fei Qian got on his horse, turned the horse's head, and walked back, "We should be friends. We didn't get his warning and almost took advantage of the situation. Let's go back to Yong'an and send more small groups of cavalry to harass. Bai Bo will definitely divide his troops.
If we are on guard, we will not be able to attack Xiangling with all our strength. After three days, Baibo will have no food and will surely be in chaos..."
× × × × × × × × × ×
In the front camp of the Baibo Army, many tents have been dismantled and thrown aside, leaving a large open space in the middle. Just above this open space, Han Xian and Li Le stood together, and the flag-bearing soldiers guarded the two.
The battle flags were raised high. The two direct guards stood in three rows, standing tightly together facing the white wave of broken soldiers in the rear camp, forming a spear formation, with cold gleaming spears.
Standing at the front, it looks like a giant hedgehog, which makes people feel chilled just by looking at it.
Han Xian looked at the white wave of defeated troops coming in like a tide, and coldly ordered: "Fire the arrows!"
After two or three breaths, he saw that the young archer on the side was hesitant, so he swept over with an expressionless look...
The young commander in charge of the archers trembled in his heart, and shouted hurriedly: "Get ready... to fire!" A round of arrows passed over the heads of Han Siam Li Le's personal guards arrayed in front, and whizzed down!
The Baibo soldiers who were running at the front were completely unprepared and were immediately shot down. Some people couldn't stop their feet and fell on top of the corpses. The whole momentum of the mad retreat was stopped...
Han Xian shouted loudly: "Retreat from both sides and kill anyone who disrupts the formation!"
Some of Bai Bo's commanders also shouted: "Go both ways! Go both ways! Anyone who disrupts the formation! Kill!"
The momentum of the entire white wave's collapse suddenly stalled. Seeing his own Qu Commander holding the formation again, he somewhat alleviated some of the panic in his heart. He slowly retreated from both sides of the phalanx, and was immediately integrated by his respective commanders and commanders.
, began to form an array behind...
Seeing that fewer of the defeated troops were gradually retreating, Han Xian immediately ordered the entire military formation to begin to advance toward the rear camp.
Unfortunately, it was a step too late. When Han Xian advanced the military formation to the rear camp, he found a wall of fire blocking the way, and the soldiers who had previously attacked the camp had disappeared...
Han Xian looked at the charred remains around the rear camp, and at the place where the grain and grass were once stacked, which was now a black field, and the flesh on his face couldn't help but jump a few times.
Li Le came over with a sad look on his face: "Han Qushuai, what are we going to do now? Damn, all the food and grass have been burned..."
Han Xian immediately glanced at Li Le who spoke so freely, but he was helpless. He had already said the words, so he couldn't let him swallow them back, right?
Han Xian was silent for a long time, and then whispered: "The only way now is to capture Xiangling at all costs, otherwise..."
"What should we do on the Yong'an side? If we come again... what should we do if we still have food and grass?" Li Le also realized that his previous voice was too loud, so he also lowered his voice and said.
Han Xian grinded his teeth and said: "At this time, I don't have much to worry about anymore. I can only... There is really no food, so I can only eat some two-legged sheep..."
"...two-legged sheep..." Li Le's expression changed and he remained silent.
It's not like Li Le has never done this before, but Li Le knows that if it comes to this, it will be extremely damaging to morale, and some soldiers will even be unable to bear it and go crazy...
Han Xian gritted his teeth and said: "Cook these dead horses immediately, then order troops to attack the city overnight! If you miss today, there will never be a better opportunity!"
Li Le nodded, agreeing with Han Xian's statement, but asked: "... Should your people go up first, or... I'll take my people up first?"
Han Xian stared at Li Le with wide eyes, stood dumbly for a while, and then sighed. Suddenly, an unpleasant premonition arose in his heart...
"I'm very disappointed in you." Guan Er sneered, "A man who used to be a dignified man is now willing to succumb to Han thieves!"
"No, you don't understand!" Zhang Liao said excitedly, "Ming Gong is a good man who can't be found even with a lantern!"
"I'm not that bad yet!" roared Cao Cao, who was waiting for the outcome of the negotiation, "I'm obviously wearing clothes..."
