"Command, Wang Jian, Wang Bi, Yang Duanhe, and General Pang Nuan stop all military missions, stop all operations and siege missions, gather the army immediately, and wait for orders from the Chinese army!"
After receiving the battle report from Li Xin, Li Mu decisively issued the latest order.
After Chengfu was besieged and supplies were cut off, the Chinese army lost contact with the Fire Cavalry. It was not until Li Xin rescued them with the Wuling Cavalry that the Chinese Army and the Fire Cavalry were reconnected for information transmission.
"The Chinese army has received an order from the general, quickly gather the army, stop all combat missions, and wait for the order from the general!"
"The Chinese army has received an order from the general, quickly gather the army, stop all combat missions, and wait for the order from the general!"
"The Chinese army has received an order from the general, quickly gather the army, stop all combat missions, and wait for the order from the general!"
…
Wang Jian, Wang Bi, Yang Duanhe, and Pang Nuan all received the order from the Chinese army. They had to abandon the current battlefield, pay gold and withdraw their troops, gather all their camps, and wait for the order from the Chinese army.
"What happened?" The four people belonged to different battlefields, but none of them knew why the Chinese army sent such an order.
Even if Meng Tian's army was completely wiped out, it had bought them enough time to break into the territory of Shouchun Wangji. How could they suddenly stop their attack?
"I'm afraid Meng Tian severely damaged the Chu army led by Xiong Qi's Xiang Yan!" Pang Nuan said seriously as he looked at the confused Han Xin.
If the Chu army had not suffered heavy losses, Li Mu would never have issued such an order.
"Based on my prediction, I'm afraid the next military order will be for us to rush to Qixian County, besiege the Chu army with all the troops, and have a decisive battle!" Pang Nuan continued.
"How is this possible? Although the fire cavalry is better than the Chu army in terms of soldier quality, and there is a certain degree of restraint against the Chu army, which is mainly infantry, but they are defending the city, and the advantage of the cavalry does not exist at all!" Han Xin shook his head and said.
These days, while commanding the army to conquer cities and territories, he would also put himself into Meng Tian's situation, but he could never find a way to break the situation.
He and Pang Nuan even conducted several deductions, and the result was that the entire Fire Cavalry army was annihilated. The only difference was the number of casualties it caused to the Chu army.
However, there has never been a strategy that caused the Chu army to suffer heavy casualties.
This is what they have simulated and deduced again and again, and Meng Tian only has one chance!
"We'll find out when we wait for the Chinese army's battle report!" Pang Nuan actually obeyed his elders, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to let Han Xin take command, so he also knew that just because he couldn't do it, it didn't mean that today's young people couldn't do it.
As for the Chinese Army, they were actually waiting for Li Xin to summarize all the battle reports after losing contact and then send them back to the Chinese Army.
Never underestimate the summary of battle reports. Each battle report will record the orders issued by the commander at that time, and then the Chinese military shogunate will analyze these orders to determine whether they are in compliance. Similarly, it is also to prevent the commander from deliberately encircling the commander. Soldiers may also lie about their military exploits.
Especially in this battle, almost all the fire cavalry were lost, but it was also said that the Chu State's 300,000-strong army suffered heavy casualties and more than half were lost.
This made the Chinese shogunate have to wonder if Meng Tian was falsely reporting his military exploits, and this would also affect the entire army's next strategy.
Although Li Mu would not believe that Meng Tian would make false reports on such a matter, especially since Li Xin had witnessed these things with his own eyes, the proper procedures still had to be in place.
Soon, Meng Tian reported all the battlefield commands at that time, and Li Mu also received the battle report immediately.
"Tragic!" Unlike the shogunate who had to analyze and discuss, with Li Mu's battlefield experience, he could review the battlefield in his mind just by looking at the battle report.
In these battle reports and commands, Meng Tian can be said to have achieved the ultimate perfection. The only flaw is that in the final battle, he should not have led the fire cavalry to charge towards the Chu army's central army, and then be driven into the canyon by the opponent.
middle.
"Advancing in a greedy manner!" the law enforcement captain of the Chinese shogunate whispered as he read the battle report.
In their view, this was greedy for merit, otherwise with the ability of the fire cavalry, the Chu army would not be able to stop them.
"Are you sure this is greed for merit?" Li Mu glanced at the other party coldly.
"Isn't it true? With the ability of the fire cavalry, they can move freely among the Chu army in the early stage. Why can't they break out from the left wing?"
The law enforcement captains are not afraid at all. They are the law enforcement supervisors of the army and are directly under the supervision of the Military Law Department and the court captains. Even Li Mu cannot interfere with them.
"Haha... Just go back to Xianyang and stay there. I will personally write to the king to explain!" Li Mu said coldly.
"You dare!" The law enforcement captain stared at Li Mu. He knew very well that if Li Mu really did this, he would not be able to stop him at all. Moreover, Li Mu now has a heavy army, and the king will never disobey him before the army is ready.
It was Li Mu’s decision.
"I am afraid that there are people like you in the army! I will write to the king and ask the Military Justice Department and the Tingwei Mansion to send someone else!" Li Mu didn't say much else, and directly asked people to drive him out of the Central Military Academy.
camp and deported back to Xianyang.
"He is the leader of Luowang, the son-in-law of Zhao Gao!" Shi, the surrounding chief of staff, reminded in a low voice.
"What about Zhao Gao?" Li Mu asked indifferently.
"If he dares to act recklessly, I will kill Zhao Gao directly!" Li Mu was arrogant. This kind of person will only cause trouble and hinder others in the army.
Based on the situation of the Fire Cavalry at that time, there was no logistical supplies and food and grass could not sustain them at all, so they could only make a desperate move and live towards death.
And before that, there was someone who could use 50,000 people to force an army of 300,000 people from pursuing them, and still be able to move freely in the position of an army of 300,000 people.
Soldiers will also get sleepy. If they charge into battle once, they may have morale, twice if they have courage, and three times if they are determined to die. If morale drops after three times, it will be impossible for the army to maintain high morale in the face of such a large army.
Especially when the soldiers know that they are thrown out as bait, can they still persist?
Therefore, Li Mu even suspected that Meng Tian even entered the canyon on purpose. He knew it was a trap but had to enter in order to let the fire cavalry know that they had no way out and could only fight to the death.
"How credible do you think this battle report is?" Li Mu looked at the officials of the shogunate and asked.
"Combined with the information sent back by General Li Xin, it should be true!" Chang Shi nodded and said.
"In this case, let's fight. Send an order to Wang Jian, Wang Bi, Yang Duanhe, and Pang Nuan to quickly assemble their troops and rush towards Qixian to cut off the Chu army's retreat!"
"At the same time, order Li Xin to lead the Wuling Cavalry to harass the Chu army and not give them a chance to retreat!"
Li Mu ordered, "No one has ever been able to annihilate all his troops and still survive!"
