"A large number of Taishan troops came out of Populus euphratica forest. Their purpose was to prevent us from coming to report the news. More than a hundred of us fought desperately to break through, and only three of us were left."
"Okay, you are good, you are the heroes of my Annan Kingdom"
"Can you see clearly how many people there are on the other side? There are three to four thousand people, all cavalry." The soldier coughed and vomited blood.
"Someone pull him down and treat him, and he will be rewarded heavily."
"Three to four thousand Taishan cavalry, they did not come to rescue Jiangdu, but hid in the woods."
"General Baili, it seems that they want to launch an attack when we launch a full-scale attack and the situation is in chaos."
"The person who came here is just a general of the Crown Prince of Taizhou Zhenbei. I thought he defeated the 200,000 wolf tribe's army. He just sent a message. I didn't expect that the city government and the strategy were so deep that he could easily destroy my 20,000 army."
"The general believes that it was Xu Hanwen, the prince of Zhenbei, who conquered Yangzhong."
"Except for him, no one will go thousands of miles to avoid our spies and attack our rear base. This man fights like a horse and a horse without any control. He does not follow common sense and should not be underestimated."
Then another group of southerners came back to report,
"General, there are a large number of Xuzhou infantry ten miles away in the north, marching rapidly towards Jiangdu City"
"There are troops coming in front, and the retreat is cut off. He Xu Hanwen is strategizing, and he wants to eat up my hundreds of thousands of people in a hundred miles of sand. He has a good strategy and a good idea."
"General, what should I do now?"
"Murong Yunteng, don't panic, Xu Hanwen's courage and ideas are worthy of our admiration, but he has forgotten our Nanguo Zhuguo Nangong Wentian. Yesterday he led an army of 150,000 to attack in two directions, all the way into Chaohu Lake in Chaohu
Landed in the county, attacked Hefei, set out from Jiangxia, broke through Sanjiangkou, and attacked Jingzhou.
We are now heading west to join the Zhuguo Kingdom. With an army of more than 200,000, we have a great chance of winning.
"Retreat, general, why don't you capture Jiangdu in one fell swoop and defend the city?"
Baili Kuangsha looked at the towering Jiangdu City and shook his head.
"Although the city has been broken and the city wall has been breached, if we really want to capture Jiangdu, there will definitely be fierce street fighting. The defenders of Jiangdu will resist desperately when they know that the reinforcements have arrived. Even if they capture it, they will suffer heavy casualties. If Xu Hanwen is delayed, then we will
It was like catching a turtle in a urn, and all 80,000 troops were lost here."
"The general has thought everything through"
"Order the soldiers to retreat in an orderly manner. General Murong, please lead the five thousand cavalry to the rear and stop the three or four thousand troops in the Populus euphratica forest to ensure the safe and sound retreat of the army."
"Follow your orders"
Ming Jin retreated his troops, and the sound of "dang-dang-dang-dang" sounded. The southern soldiers were shocked when they heard it, and then the forward general shouted
"retreat"
After hearing this, all the southern soldiers quickly turned around. Those who had already rushed up to the city wall rolled and climbed down the city wall. The army retreated like a tide, not caring about the wounded around them.
"General Chiang Annan's troops have withdrawn"
"Why, they have clearly attacked the city. Look at their appearance. They retreated in a hurry, as if they were defeated. The Chinese army camp also withdrew."
"Could it be that reinforcements are coming, but there are no signs of large-scale marches around?"
"Stay alert"
"General, look at that, Baili Kuangsha is gone, they are moving westward"
The vast army disappeared from sight in an instant, leaving only corpses scattered on the ground outside the city gate, and a few dying horses.
"That shouldn't be the case. Their ships are in Yangzhong to the east. How can they retreat to the west?"
"General, are they trying to lure us out of the city?"
"No, look, there is also Murong Yunteng, leading five or six thousand cavalry in a tight formation, as if he is dealing with enemies coming from the east. Who is he guarding against?"
"Report to General Qin and General Chen that Baili Kuangsha has retreated." Soldiers from the Populus euphratica forest came to report
"It seems that the soldiers who escaped from Annan Kingdom reported the news that Yang Zhong was occupied by the Crown Prince."
"General Qin, what should we do?"
"The whole army attacks, follow them, hold on, keep distance from each other, and wait for the prince to arrive,"
"Okay, even if he is an elephant, we will bite off both of his legs."
The Taishan Army in Qin Ying, Chen Dalong, led three thousand Taishan Army to rush out of the Populus euphratica forest, the earth shook and dust flew up
"General Jiang, look at the military flag with the red base of the white snow on the high mountain. That is the Taishan Army flag of our country, Taizhou."
"It's the Taishan Army"
After the thunderous sound of horse hooves, I saw the black Taishan Army rolling in under the leadership of the white snow-red flag on the mountain, like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, and stopped a thousand steps away. The two sides faced each other like this.
The two tigers stared at each other, with neither one daring to take the lead in the fight.
Seeing that the other party did not have four thousand people as the messenger said, Murong Yunteng felt a lot more relieved. He led five thousand cavalry, slowly reared up, and kept a distance from the Baili Kuangsha army, forming a cornering force.
Jiang Yingxiong saw that Taishan's army only had two or three thousand men. He knew the opponent's intention of stopping a thousand steps away. If he attacked, the three thousand men would not be able to cause harm to the army at all. They might even be eaten in one bite. Murong Yunhai's
I didn't take action because I was worried that Jiangdu City would attack me from behind.
"Send the order and all the cavalry will gather at the south gate."
"General, you have to lead the army out of the city."
"Well, if you rush out of the city, will you be ambushed?"
"Report to the general, a message has just been sent from the north gate. Yuan Tong from Pengcheng has arrived with 30,000 Xuzhou Army infantrymen.
"Okay, Yuan Tong is the general of my Jiangshan Kingdom. With his help, this battle will be won. Quickly send the order to cooperate with the Taishan Army to attack. After I leave the city, military advisor, you should close the city gate tightly. Don't open the door to anyone who comes."
"Follow your orders"
Baili Kuangsha led the army to retreat. The 60,000-strong army raised up billowing dust and shrouded everything. The vehicles creaked and advanced, winding along the large tunnel for several miles. All the way to Hangou, a road a hundred paces long
The floating bridge on the river connects both sides of the river. Hangou starts from the Yangtze River south of Jiangdu in the south and reaches the Huaihe River north of Huai'an in the north. It is a hundred paces wide and ten feet deep. It has hundreds of miles of sand and 20,000 troops are deployed on the front to prevent the enemy from half a force.
kill
"Quick, cross the pontoon quickly,
Soldiers swarmed up, crossed the pontoon bridge, and formed defensive formations on the other side.
"Instruct General Murong to cover the army crossing the river on the east hillside."
"Follow your orders"
The messenger quickly rode his horse and ran away,
"The general ordered that General Murong will lead five thousand cavalry and Chen Bing on Dongpo Mountain to cover the army crossing the river. The general will use archers on the opposite side to cover the cavalry crossing the river."
"Follow your orders"
Jiang Yingxiong led five thousand cavalry to fight out. The dust was rolling, the horses were galloping, and the sound of killing was loud. The declining morale was changed.
"Jiangdu City Guard General Jiang Yingxiong led his troops to help. Thank you general for saving me Jiangdu."
"You're welcome, General"
"May I ask who the general is?"
"I am Qin Ying, the Crown Prince of Zhenbei"
"It is true that he is the crown prince of Zhenbei, the Marquis of Zhongyi, and the lord of Xuzhou, General Xu Hanwen."
"Yes"
"Thank you, General Qin, for coming to rescue Jiangdu City. I thank General on behalf of the people of Jiangdu."
"It was not me who broke the siege of Jiangdu, but His Highness the Crown Prince. My Highness led an army to raid Yangzhong, defeated Ximen Chuyue's 20,000-strong army, burned the warships, and forced Baili Kuangsha to retreat. But I don't understand why he wanted to withdraw to the west.
Hangou"
The prince raided Yangzhong. It seems that I underestimated the prince of Zhenbei. He is not as unbearable as the legend says.
"General, shall we charge?"
"No, our numbers are too small. If we take the initiative, we will only be in a passive and disadvantageous position. The Crown Prince will lead the army soon. When the army arrives, we will pounce on it."
"I just received a message from Yuan Tongshe. Thirty thousand infantry will arrive soon."
"real"
"The letter is here"
"General Jiang, hold on, Yuan Tong will arrive immediately with an army of 30,000 people."
"good"
"General Jiang, you immediately lead the cavalry to attack the defeated troops crossing the river and disrupt Baili Kuangsha's crossing of the river. Wait for the army to arrive and swallow up Baili Kuangsha in one go. I will lead the army and keep an eye on Murong Yunteng."
