Upon hearing the news of the attack by the two groups of rebels, Qin Huaidao's eyes narrowed, and his anger burned in his heart. The three groups attacked at the same time, intending to fight to the death, and shouted: "Su Dingfang!"
"The end will be here." Su Dingfang, who had just left, quickly returned.
"The operation is cancelled." Qin Huaidao made adjustments decisively. If it was just the prince from the east, he could deal with it calmly, but now that three groups are attacking, the situation has become serious, and adjustments must be made accordingly. There are more than a thousand pro-army troops who cannot be left alone.
It's useless to send someone who doesn't know Niu Jinda.
Su Dingfang also understood the reason and nodded in agreement.
Cheng Chuliang, Li Yixie and Shi Yeshan surrounded them with fanatical eyes. Twenty to thirty thousand people were surrounded on three sides by two to three hundred thousand people. It was a certain death situation, but no one was afraid.
Qin Huaidao had to consider the consequences. If he retreated, he would be able to escape from the encirclement if there was no one to defend him to the north. However, it might also be a trap intentionally left by his opponent. To the north was the Yinshan Mountains. There were many places suitable for ambushes. He didn't know how he would die. He couldn't help but
Worry.
There are large armies to the east and south. It is unlikely to break out. Even if we succeed, we will suffer heavy losses. There are only 50,000 people to the west, which is relatively good. Do we want to break out?
Indecisiveness leads to disaster.
Qin Huaidao made some calculations and made a decisive decision to break out of the encirclement, not to the west, but to the south.
The 50,000 Jieli tribe in the west are all from the same tribe. They are very united and difficult to fight. Moreover, keeping the Jieli tribe may not be a good thing for Li Jiancheng. After all, they are aliens. Li Jiancheng uses the Jieli tribe and needs more defense. If Li Jiancheng's army is weakened,
The white-eyed wolf of Jielibu might have different intentions and take his place.
Li Jiancheng's two attacks in the south were repulsed, resulting in considerable losses and a blow to morale. Secondly, the composition of Li Jiancheng's troops was complex, including border troops, government troops, and foreign troops. They were unfamiliar with each other, and might even be wary of and suspicious of each other.
, cooperation is not tacit, not united enough, cannot be consistent with the outside world, suitable for breakthrough.
As long as Li Jiancheng's troops are severely damaged, the prince's strength can stabilize Li Jiancheng's head, which can break the balance between the two and even stimulate conflicts between them. It would be better if Prince Li Chengqian can annex Li Jiancheng's troops. After all, he is the prince and his troops are
Being bewitched by Qi, once the Holy Spirit comes over, not to mention that the troops will switch sides after knowing the truth, but a single act of filial piety is enough to overwhelm Li Chengqian.
People in this era take filial piety very seriously, and those who are unfilial will be cast aside.
Why Li Er likes to recruit talented people as sons-in-law is to bind them with filial piety. Once he becomes a son-in-law, he is half a son-in-law. If he dares to rebel, he will be unfilial and will be despised by everyone in the world.
Another advantage of going south is that you can enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty and get support from the imperial court. It is also mountainous and easy to counterattack.
In this case, let's retreat in order to advance, break out of the encirclement, and see how Li Jiancheng and Li Chengqian get along without their own existence.
In the lightning room, Qin Huaidao analyzed the advantages and disadvantages clearly and clearly, and immediately shouted: "Su Dingfang, change horses again, prepare heavy cavalry to clear the way, and move quickly."
"Follow the order!" Su Dingfang thought he was going to fight like before, so he agreed and hurried to make arrangements.
"General Shi, change horses as well!" Qin Huaidao looked at Shi Yeshan.
In the battle just now, the horses' physical strength was greatly exhausted and many were injured. They were no longer suitable for fighting again. It was indeed necessary to change horses. Shi Yeshan nodded knowingly and quickly asked the guards around him to pass on the order, while he stayed on standby.
Qin Huaidao looked at Li Yixie. Li Yixie thought he was fighting the same as before. He nodded and gave some instructions to the guards around him. The other party left in a hurry. Qin Huaidao saw that Li Yixie had such a tacit understanding and did not repeat it again. He continued to say to Su Dingfang: "Send the order, and the armies are preparing to evacuate.
, after the three-pass war drums have passed, use the existing formation to fight southward. Each unit takes turns to cover, and you must not mess up your position. Send someone to notify the friendly forces near the water to withdraw together."
"Follow the order." Su Dingfang was shocked in his heart. He actually wanted to evacuate and fight to the south. He was a famous general after all. He quickly guessed Qin Huaidao's intention and called a few subordinates to give him some instructions. A few of them nodded and passed on the order.
The sun is warm and the breeze is warm.
Qin Huaidao's heart was filled with cold murderous intent. Two to three hundred thousand people were pressing down on him at the same time. If he didn't have enough crossbows to resist, he would be seeking death. He couldn't commit the crime. But being forced to retreat was too humiliating and infuriating, which he had never experienced before.
After waiting for a while, he saw the enemy approaching from a distance and shouted: "Bang the drum!"
"Dong dong dong!"
The roar of war drums spread throughout the wilderness, carrying a strong sense of war, as if declaring war.
Su Dingfang looked at Qin Huaidao with feverish eyes.
Qin Huaidao solemnly ordered: "Remember, go straight to the enemy's commander's flag and destroy the command system. Don't worry about anything else. You must move quickly and cannot stop. Even if you retreat, you must step on the corpses of the rebels and fight them out to let the rebels escape."
You know why you are not someone to be trifled with."
"Follow the order!" Su Dingfang looked solemn.
"Shi Yeshan, follow the old rules and follow the heavy cavalry to open a passage."
"Understood!" Shi Yeshan responded solemnly.
"Li Yixie?"
"I will finally understand!" Li Yi Xue replied with a sense of purpose.
"Get out of the formation, hit the drums twice and then attack!"
"Follow the order." The three of them clasped their fists and rushed to their respective positions.
Soon, the heavy cavalry slowly moved forward along the passage, followed by the light cavalry, and then the Chinese army. After all three groups of people walked out of their positions, they quickly formed an array.
Qin Huaidao waited for a while and saw that the attacking team had formed up, and that all the troops and horses had almost packed the supplies. He looked at the warrior not far away, and the other party nodded and picked up the drumstick.
"Dong dong dong!"
The second war drum sounded. Su Dingfang picked up the horse and stared at the rebels still in formation in front of him and shouted: "Brothers, follow me and break out a bloody road, let's go!"
The soldiers began to fight and speed up, no one was afraid, and the continuous killings made everyone extremely confident.
On the hillside, Qin Huaidao saw that the leading army had begun to charge, and quickly looked to the west. Cheng Chubi was leading his army to fight with the Jieli tribe who was charging up.
Three thousand people came up to test it and plunged into the meat grinder.
After observing for a moment, Qin Huaidao saw that almost three thousand people had been strangled. He could not wait any longer, otherwise the Jieli Ministry would send people to rush up and kill them. Once entangled, it would be difficult to escape. He looked at the strongman, who beat the drum again knowingly.
"Dong dong dong!"
A series of deep war drums sounded, shaking the world and making a buzzing sound.
The troops stationed in the southeast, northwest and four directions quickly rushed out of the trenches, got on their horses, picked up another war horse carrying supplies, and left along the passage under the leadership of the general, being careful to avoid horse traps.
The Chinese military tents on the hillside had long been dismantled and packed up on horseback. Su Dingfang was not around, so Qin Huaidao personally led his troops down the hillside, through the passage, walked out of the position and headed south.
Four groups of soldiers and horses came over and formed four battle formations to protect Qin Huaidao in the middle. The foreign friendly troops had also gathered, but they did not run around. Shamen Qibi came running with several tribal leaders, and Qin Huaidao stepped forward to greet him as a sign of respect.
, several people saluted one after another, and Samana Qibi asked: "General, how should we arrange it?"
"Our army will attack the rebels from the front and withdraw from the south. You will be responsible for the rear. Is there any problem?" Qin Huaidao asked.
The monk Qibi saw Qin Huaidao handing his back to him. This was a great trust and also a great care. It was most dangerous to attack the leading group from the front. The rear was relatively safe. There was nothing wrong with this arrangement. The monk Qibi felt grateful and clasped his fists.
Said: "The general looks down on us, we can attack him head-on."
"The rear of the palace is also in danger. The enemy troops will cover up and pursue them. Look to the west." Qin Huaidao pointed to the west and said. The three thousand people who tried just now were stunned, but they found that after retreating, Jieli's troops became bolder and chased them.
"Okay, leave it to us. I have long wanted to fight with Jielibu." Samana Qibi agreed.
"Don't be reluctant to fight. You must keep up with the army and don't fall behind. Falling behind means death."
"clear."
Qin Huaidao looked forward and saw that the leading heavy cavalry had already attacked the rebels and shouted: "Generals, listen to the order. Fang Yiai is leading his troops in front, Cheng Chuliang is on the left, and Cheng Chubi is on the right. The three armies are keeping their distance and presenting their troops."
Zi Xing told me to go forward and attack fiercely. No retreat or stagnation was allowed. My general led his troops in the center, with crossbows to support all parties. Yuchi Baoqi followed behind to prevent the rebels from rolling back. There must be no mistakes. Go and command!
"
"Follow the order!" The major generals understood and quickly rushed to their respective positions.
Samana Qibi also returned to the army with the leaders of various departments.
The army moved quickly and charged forward in a prismatic shape.
Qin Huaidao led his troops in the middle of the prismatic shape, and ordered the troops to shoot freely, providing cover for the friendly troops. Everyone in the middle would not be in danger and could shoot with ease.
The galloping war horses are like the roar of thunder, shaking the grassland.
A wave of stranglehold soared into the sky, causing the wind to disperse, and the heaven and earth became oppressive.
While running, Qin Huaidao shouted to the three pro-army generals: "The team was divided into three and spread out in a triangular formation. They each commanded and supported the friendly forces. There must be no mistakes. I, the general, went to fight and with great authority, drove -"
Bai Tiwu sensed Qin Huaidao's fighting spirit and rushed over, leaving the three generals looking at each other. They quickly led an army to disperse and acted according to Qin Huaidao's instructions.
