"Report-"
There were hurried footsteps and loud voices coming from outside the tent. Qi Guanrang took a beat before he could react, and said solemnly, "What's the matter?"
Taking advantage of the long-planned advantage, Guan Qi let Leng Jue take a shot to suppress Feng Jue, caught the opponent by surprise, and then tricked a wave of enemy forces with his plan, forcing Feng Jue to retreat twenty miles. It seems like a simple and easy victory, but in fact it takes a huge risk.
Officer Qi had been thinking about how to expand his victory for the past two days, so much so that he was overworked and his voice was much hoarer than usual.
The messenger rushed all the way, his bronze cheeks were dyed red, and there were large beads of sweat on his forehead.
He deeply eased his emotions, and couldn't help but say, "The strategist is overjoyed, the enemy army has withdrawn and retreated!"
Retire the camp
Qi Guan Rang was stunned for a moment, Huo Di stood up from the seat, the outer cloak draped over his shoulders slipped from his shoulders and piled up beside his feet.
He was not as happy as the messenger, but his face was solemn, and his eyes were terrifyingly gloomy and daunting.
"The enemy has retreated? When did it happen?"
Could it be another conspiracy, a trick to deceive soldiers
Qi Guan Rang felt like he was fighting against Feng Jue for a few months, but he wasted a few years of his lifespan, and all kinds of calculations continued one after another.
If it weren't for him, just change to someone with a more impetuous temperament, and it is estimated that he was cheated by Feng Jue and counted the money for him.
Qi Guanrang was most afraid of hearing that Feng Jue was making trouble again.
The messenger said, "Last night at 4 o'clock, the lights in the enemy's tent were still on, but this morning there was no sign of the smoke from the fire. The subordinates and others were suspicious and sent someone to investigate, only to find that the enemy's tent was completely empty. Counting the time, it should have been evacuated last night."
Officer Qi made him unable to react for a while, not sure whether Feng Jue really retreated or pretended to retreat and tricked him into sending troops.
No wonder he thought too much, it was because Feng Jue had too many "criminals", and Qi Guanrang had to be cautious.
He said, "Send someone to investigate again."
Not long after the messenger withdrew, Fu Wang came in with a displeased expression. The thick and mighty armor was still on his body, making him tall and burly. With his own momentum, he could go anywhere. Standing gives the illusion of being cramped and oppressive.
"Master, I heard that the enemy has retreated-"
Fu Wang is a wolf raised by a wolf, and he has a strong aggression in his bones. Jiang Pengji asked him to be the commander, and Qi Guan asked him to help him guard Wanzhou. , I almost suffocated him in a few months. After finally changing his strategy, he switched from defense to attack. Before he could enjoy himself, the enemy took the initiative to withdraw his troops, which made him have the urge to spit out a mouthful of old blood.
What does this feel like
It's inhumane to have a good time and still hold on to the time.
Qi Guanrang frowned and said, "On the surface, I can't tell if it's true or not. If Feng Jue turns around and shoots a carbine, it will be hard to prevent."
When Fu Wang heard this, his dim eyes lit up again, as if a salted fish had turned over with a snap.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jue really withdrew, and walked away without any hesitation, turning his head and hitting a carbine or something, it didn't exist.
Fu Wang eagerly urged the army to tighten their nerves and wait for the enemy to return, but he was disappointed.
"Is this really withdrawn?"
Fu Wang felt even more sore. He was guarding Wanzhou, so moldy and mushrooms grew. Feng Jue flirted with it and ran away. Is this still a man!
Definitely not a man!
Qi Guan Rang was also surprised.
Fu Wang enthusiastically suggested, "Master, do you want to send troops to chase? It took only a day for them to withdraw their troops, and they will surely catch up with the rush day and night."
Qi Guan Rang Zheng frowned and looked at the sand table, which marked the general direction of the enemy's withdrawal.
"What does the general think is the reason for Feng Jue's withdrawal?"
Fu Wang is warlike but not brainless. He took a closer look at the sand table and pondered the direction of the enemy's withdrawal. He also guessed something.
"It's the autumn harvest, the lord has been patient for a long time, and the arrow against Huang Song is already on the line and has to be sent." Fu Wang thought about it and said, "If Feng Jue's withdrawal of troops is not a fraud, it is most likely to bring troops to support Huang Song. No. "What is Huang Song trying to do?"
Feng Jue's support for Huang Song is equivalent to gathering about 80% of the troops in one place. Is this the plan for the two armies to confront each other and have a decisive battle
Qi Guanrang frowned and said solemnly, "If Feng Jue's withdrawal of troops is true, it should be for this."
Fu Wang said worriedly, "Huang Song has a lot of soldiers and horses. I'm afraid there will be a hard battle on the lord's side. Sergeant, don't you really need to lead troops to chase and intercept?"
If Huang Song is cut off, Huang Song will be less help, and the pressure on Jiang Pengji's side will be less.
Officer Qi gave way, "If we lead troops to intercept it, what will Maruzhou do? Our duty is to ensure that Maruzhou is safe and can't take risks."
Fu Wang said again, "But over there, lord..."
Guan Qi gave him a look that could see through Fu Wang, and analyzed him carefully, "Huang Song's two troops and horses joined forces smoothly, and the total is between 160,000 and 180,000. This is an exaggerated figure. 120,000, if you add General Luo Yue's troops, Huang Song's troops are equal. These troops were built by the lord's painstaking efforts and huge sums of money, and Huang Song's chance of winning is at most 30%!"
The more Fu Wang listened, the darker his eyes became, like a salted fish who lost his dream, a small fish stranded on the beach.
Qi Guanrang said again, "In terms of momentum, Huang Song has been repeatedly attacked, his momentum is low, and he is far inferior to the lord, and his odds of winning are even lower. As long as there is nothing wrong with the lord, and he does not make irreparable mistakes, it can be said Victory in hand—"
He was very relieved about the situation of the lord, so Fu Wang should rest his mind on leading the troops to pursue.
Fu Wang: "… "
Jiang Pengji did have an advantage over Huang Song, but this advantage could not 100% secure the victory. Out of respect for Huang Song, she did not perfunctory. As early as when Feng Jue received a secret letter and led troops to evacuate from Wanzhou, Jiang Pengji began to attack Huang Song.
Huang Song could only rush to fight while harvesting the autumn crops. Luo Yue squatted in the Sanshan Canyon, unwilling to be lonely, responding to the orders of his lord, and at the same time cooperating to attack Huang Song. Huang Song's side can only divide the troops into several waves. Fortunately, the Sanshan Canyon is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and there is a natural terrain that can be relied on at the border of Hu County. .
It's not good news, but it's not bad news either.
Huang Song abandoned his distracting thoughts and concentrated on the war.
"Youmo, how is the autumn grain harvest?"
Cheng Jing said, "Fifty percent."
According to the original progress, at most 30%, without Cheng Jing arranging the soldiers to rush around day and night, and repeatedly compressing the time, it is barely possible to have this efficiency. Huang Song made a silent calculation in his heart, 50% of the autumn grain is more than 1.2 million stone, enough for the army to chew.
Huang Song said, "Zhonghe County is not a long-term place. The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for us."
Tsukagawa County itself is not an easy place to defend, not to mention that the enemy is attacking at the same time.
The longer it drags on, the greater the pressure on Huang Song.
