Chapter 623: Siam Defeated
"Get down." I don't know which general shouted such a voice, and suddenly the Siamese soldiers who were attacking and who were about to rush forward all fell to the ground obediently one by one, and their movements were as fast as if they had been trained countless times before.
Poor General Gotin had just stood up under the protection of his own soldiers, when the gunshots rang out, and he was once again so mercilessly pushed to the ground that he couldn't stop gnawing a piece of mud on his mouth, which made him angry and ashamed at the same time.
The gunfire continued, and from time to time figures would rush out of the dense forest, and then grenades fell on the heads of the Siamese soldiers who were close to the dense forest.
"Retreat, retreat, crawl backwards." Seeing that with an explosion, and I don't know how many soldiers died on the ground, some of the commanders hurriedly gave orders, and then an amazing scene happened, on the road, countless people are frantically retreating in a way of lying on the ground, even if they are allowed to assess the members of the cold front, I am afraid that some people's grades can meet the standard, this should be the role of potential.
When a person is faced with life and death, he can always burst out at unimaginable speed.
As the Siamese soldiers continued to retreat, and even retreated to their previous positions, the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions gradually stopped, and the whole land was silent again.
It's not terrible to suffer a loss, and it's not terrible to be fooled once. The horse has stumbled! But if you fall into the same thing again and suffer a loss, then it is stupid, and you don't remember to eat. So after that, even if the sound of God's roar was heard for the second time in the darkness, none of the thousand-man team made any moves.
In line with the psychology of not holding the people accountable for the law, everyone will not move, is it possible that your brother General can still kill all of us thousands? If this is done, then a mutiny will not be far off.
After shouting a lot in a row, his voice was almost dumb, and he did not see the slightest movement of the army, and Godan also gave up shouting. That's it, that's it, just waiting, once it's dawn, everyone's eyes can see the opponent clearly, that is, when he fights back with all his might, don't you believe that he will lose again at that time?
This scene is very similar to the way Chen Bo was dealing with the 100,000 army of Lati of the Lancang Kingdom, and he also forced the other party to lie on the ground to ensure his safety. The difference is that this time the terrain is not very good, and the troops in the hands of Division Commander Leng Song are limited, and it is impossible to repeat the scene of capturing 100,000 troops.
"Inform down, the auxiliaries will withdraw first, Leng Feng will withdraw last, and gather in the direction of Vientiane City after dawn." Leng Song was very reluctant to give an order, originally thinking that he could have a good fight, but in the face of some soft bones, he was helpless. You can't let the army rush up, firstly, the line of sight is obstructed, and secondly, the number of troops is too small, if you really rush over, once it becomes a hand-to-hand combat battle, it is only possible for them to suffer if the troops are not as good as the troops, which is the result he never wants.
The mercenaries began to retreat into the depths of the dense forest in an orderly manner, and then turned in a different direction towards Vientiane City. For all this, the Siamese soldiers on the road did not dare to guess or test, because that meant that countless lives would be taken to fill it, and no one wanted to die, so it was better to stay where they were.
From time to time, the cold wind would blow past everyone, and the mosquitoes would seize the opportunity to bite from time to time, and all the Siamese soldiers could do was endure and curse in their hearts. scolded the mercenaries for why they were targeting, scolded their own generals for being incompetent, what kind of battle was this fighting.
Time passed little by little, and the sky finally brightened. The dew fell, and the mosquitoes began to leave one by one. When the white fog also dissipated, the Siamese soldiers finally launched a counterattack, as if they wanted to perform well, one by one rushed towards the dense forest, but what was waiting for them must be empty, even the last group of cold fronts to evacuate was also evacuated half an hour ago.
Gordan stood up straight again under the protection of his own soldiers, but his eyes were red, indicating that he had not rested well that night.
"General, the enemy is no longer in the dense forest, what should we do next?" The captains and the commanders all began to concentrate on him, the general, and then asked with a flattering face. After all, they showed a fear of death last night, and now they are afraid that the general will settle accounts after the fall.
Godan really wants to settle accounts with them, but if these generals are really dealt with, who will lead the troops, and even once these people are together, they may counteract themselves. I had to write down this time in my heart, he waved his hand, and said impatiently, "What else can I do?" Continue the retreat, let the army speed up, and rush to the city of Udon Thani to eat. ”
I can't deal with these generals, but it's not that I can't do anything at all, and punishing them for skipping breakfast is a temporary breath of bad anger. Of course, this is also Godan wants to hurry back to the city as soon as possible, as long as he enters the city, it will be much safer.
Under the first battle, and lost more than 10,000 troops, with less than 90,000 troops, including nearly 10,000 wounded, the Siamese army finally returned to Udon Thani City in the evening of the next day, when entering the city, looking at the destroyed streets and houses, and even some fireworks have not been completely extinguished, Godan knew that this base is finished, and if you want to rebuild it, I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it in a few months, that is to say, this time the strategy plan for Vientiane City is likely to be abandoned halfway, He will also return to the capital with shame.
What did Godan think, Leng Song naturally didn't care, two battles and two victories, more than 4,000 troops wiped out tens of thousands of opponents, and the most important thing was that he had almost no losses, and this result still satisfied him. With a look of excitement, he came to Vientiane City, Luan Xiaochen had already received the news, and he was waiting for these heroes here, unlike Godan who entered Wulong City, good wine and tea were prepared here early, and everyone had a smile on their faces.
Vientiane City is safe, and Luan Xiaochen, as the governor, is naturally the happiest one. Although he is not afraid of war, he also knows that once the fight starts, the order in the city that has just been on the right track will be destroyed, and he doesn't know how much he will have to pay if he wants to return to the previous track.
Fortunately, the sixth young master calculated everything, and the retreat of the Siamese soldiers has become a fact. With the more than 4,000 new troops led by Commander Leng Song, even if the other party comes again, they don't need to be afraid, with the advantage of weapons, Godan will definitely return in vain.
Following Leng Song's return to the city, another piece of good news came by telegram. Just yesterday, the Ava dynasty sent 50,000 troops, but they soon encountered 20,000 troops from the Vietnamese mercenaries Hung Kim and Nguyen Thien's headquarters that had been waiting there for a long time in the important town of Bangeng Valley in northwestern Laos.
The possibility of the Ava dynasty wanting to make a surprise attack was gone, so they also withdrew their troops very happily, so that the offensive of Siam and Ava was broken up respectively, and the province of Laos could finally continue to do what it should do without living a life of fear.
The news of Laos Province reached Yang Chendong's ears, and the Sixth Young Master under Su Weng City was also greatly relieved. Although all this was expected by him, no one dared to guarantee that there would be no accidents. Now that the dust has settled, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief and put all his attention on the city of Suon in front of him.
"Haven't they sent someone out to talk to us yet?" Yang Chendong pinched his waist with both hands, stood in front of the temporary headquarters, looked at the tall city in the distance, and asked the tiger mang beside him.
"Young master, not yet. There was news from the Security Bureau that Team Leader Yun was still carrying out activities, so he thought it should be soon. "Hu Mang is reporting the information that has just arrived.
"Okay, that's the case, we're adding to each other, and some people just don't remember to eat. Orders, artillery fire extended, bombarded me hard, I want to see how long they can hold out. Yang Chendong's eyes flashed with a gleam. Due to his own background, this time he had no intention of eating the Phnom Penh Dynasty. The 4.5 million Hermes-Epitek in Chichicheng is being renovated, but the news is not ideal.
These people are all homeless people who want to give up in Nanming, they have no education, they are all born in hard work, and they have very little courage, all they do is to eat a bite and live in the world. It is not a day's work for such people to make a big change in a short period of time, so that they can have confidence and feel dignity.
Although the Political Department and the Propaganda Department have made great efforts, it is impossible to use them in a year. Add to that the need to learn culture, at least literacy, which may take longer.
When Vietnam and Laos provinces were established before, 200,000 intellectual youths in Chichicheng had been used, and if you want to occupy the entire Phnom Penh dynasty, you still need at least 100,000 intellectual youths, and this reserve is gone, and it will take time to retrain. This is Yang Chendong's hardship, how to build a high-rise building without enough foundation? In the end, he decided that this time he would only fight the Phnom Penh Dynasty and not occupy it, and he wanted to show his muscles through this incident to ensure that he was not here, and that he would not be bullied casually whether it was Vietnam Province or Lao Province.
The main reason that forced Yang Chendong to make this decision was not only the lack of young people with knowledge reserves, but also the emergence of unexpected events. The honeymoon period between Beiming and Warat came to an abrupt end, and news came from the Security Bureau that a major battle seemed inevitable.
The reason for this was that Shi Biao, who was in charge of trade security, blackmailed the merchants of Wara, so that the relationship between the two sides, which was originally close, suddenly became like water and fire.
