Chapter 1325: Retreat
Impossible, impossible, how can this be...... If it is said that the most surprised person on the battlefield at this time is definitely not Bai Wang, but Wang Yien.
Known as the king of Hades, he is belligerent and thirsty for killing, and his combat effectiveness is also strong, but in the face of the attacks of Wu Sangui, Ma Ke and Dongchang Sanwei, he was killed and retreated again and again, which made him unable to believe what was happening in front of him.
Why are the officers and soldiers not only powerful cavalry, but also infantry, and the few people who rushed to the front are too fierce, Wang Yien looked at Tu Yuan who was fighting not far away, and his heart began to become nervous and then a little frightened, and then ...... Hey, there was something wrong with the back, and when I turned my head to look, I saw a mess behind the battle, and I was about to ask what was going on, when one person hurriedly reported: "General, the officers and soldiers have been outflanked from behind......"
"The P officers and soldiers who let Nima fly over with wings" Wang Yien scolded suddenly: "Is it someone who turned against the water and grass the damn...... From the waterway? He finally thought of this, and then slapped his thigh: "Oops,! ”
"It's over, it's over, how many officers and soldiers are there behind?" Wang Yien hurriedly asked
"Two or three thousand, I don't know the specific ones, but I heard that there are thousands" The man looked panicked: "General, what should we do......"
What to do? Wang Yien looked at the officers and soldiers in front of him slowly approaching, knowing that without the assistance of firepower on the mountain, the second line of defense would not be able to hold half a pillar of incense...... Turning his head to see that there was another breath of cold air,, why is there still a fight on the mountain, can it be ......
their battle can not be fought, and if it continues to be surrounded by people in front and back, there is nowhere to run except for jumping into the river, Wang Yien immediately made a decision, decided to fight and retreat, or have to break through from the rear, the east is Shanxi and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in front of the river, and there is only the only way to survive in the rear.
At the same time, Yuan Sanzhong on the west wing knew that the rear was blocked, and he had the same mind as Wang Yien, so he quickly withdrew his troops to break through or the whole army would be annihilated.
So the two of them each sent one to fight to the death of the palace, and the rest quickly retreated to break through.
It's just that the two of them almost vomited blood with this move, what the hell are you doing to withdraw so early, Lao Tzu personally went to form a defense line, how powerful can more than a thousand people be, as long as they are stopped, there is still a chance to repel the attack of the officers and soldiers, but as soon as you two retreat......
All the hard work was in vain!
"It's been in vain" Bai Wang knelt on the ground and howled in the sky, the sun had slowly set in the west, and the night was slowly coming.
"The thief army is defeated, the thief army is defeated" The officers and soldiers on the battlefield shouted loudly, and continued to chase the enemy bravely, and after the battle, Chang Yu put down the clairvoyant mirror and smiled faintly: "Retreat!" ”
Li Muxian clapped his hands excitedly: "This game is decided!" ”
"Chase the enemy with all your might" Chang Yu shouted loudly, except for Lu Daqi and Li Muxian and a few personal guards, including Xu Hongji and others, all of them entered the position, and the front line was after Wu Sangui broke through the second line of defense, and the substitute Nanjing soldiers had also arrived, just when the thief army retreated, he took advantage of the situation to beat the water dogs.
The situation on the battlefield below changed abruptly, and seeing that the army was defeated and the thief army fighting on the east mountain was afraid, where would they dare to fight, and they who had already gained the upper hand even fled south.
As soon as they fled on their front feet, the soldiers of the tenacious part sat down, and some of them lay directly on the ground gasping for breath, they were so tired, you think the battle on the battlefield below was fierce enough, no, they were the most fierce and tragic killing.
Because the back mountain is steep, when they attack, the thief army tumbles down the stone and smashes it, and then it is hand-to-hand combat that starts hand-to-hand combat, and finally the attack is already out of breath before the attack, and the physical exertion is extremely great, but it meets the reinforcements of the thief army to counterattack, and several times it has been knocked down the hill but forced back.
Because they are the most elite fighters in Dongchang, they can only succeed, not fail! They have to get the job done!
With this breath of belief, he stubbornly held on until the thief army was defeated and retreated!
The most capable and most resistant is not the 200-strong soldier, but who is the worst beaten, do you think it is the 3,000 Nanjing soldiers led by Jin Shenghuan?
No! It's Wang Zamao!
At this time, he did not know whether he was alive or dead!
Wang Zamao was the most murderous when he first landed on the shore, and broke the back line of the thief army in the blink of an eye, and then took advantage of the victory to move forward bravely, slashing and slashing all the way forward, but with Bai Wang's personal presence began to organize a counterattack and even formed a rout army to outflank from the back, at this time Wang Zamao's offensive slowed down.
However, although he was surrounded by the thief army from behind, Wang Zamao still did not panic, he remembered Chang Yu's explanation, you just have to kill from the back to the front, the thief army will be in chaos, and the front army will collapse, and at that time, we will defeat the thief army before and after.
What really made Wang Zamao start to panic was that suddenly the thief army in front of him came like a tide, at first he jumped up happily and shouted that the thief army was defeated, the thief army was defeated, just shouting and shouting felt wrong, if he didn't run away, he would immediately be trampled into pulp by the broken thief army.
At this time, he suddenly thought about it and was extremely frightened, whether the little eunuch would send him merit or let him die!
It's just that he can't think too much at this time, the army of thieves in front is surging like a low tide, and Bai Wang personally commands him to block him in the back, there is no way in front and back, there is a mountain in the east, damn, Lao Tzu can only jump into the river, this is also the only way to live!
So, Wang Zamao fought a bloody way out of the encirclement of the thief army, and rushed directly into the Yangtze River with hundreds of people to drift down the river.
Wang Yien and Yuan Sanzhong led their troops to retreat, although Wang Zamao was forced to jump into the river, but they also scattered the men and horses that Bai Wang had finally gathered behind, and his anger almost spurted blood.
In Bai Wang's view, although the officers and soldiers from the rear will outflank the rebels, but if they deal with it properly, such as giving him a front and back counter-outflanking can resolve this crisis, but the idea is good, but the actual implementation is as difficult as ascending to the sky, because in the fierce battle, the enemy army in front is advancing and the enemy army is outflanking in the rear, and no one can deal with it calmly and calmly.
Wang Yien and Yuan Sanzhong also did not hesitate to make this choice, but they pierced Bai Wang's good wishes at once!
The defeat is like a mountain, the thief army retreats south like a tide, thousands of officers and soldiers wielded knives and chased closely, this is the Nanjing soldiers who have just been replaced, if they are allowed to fight a tough battle, but the water dog is definitely a good hand, thousands of people take advantage of the victory to pursue the tens of thousands of thieves are terrified, many thieves have been fighting for too long, their physical strength is exhausted, they can't run away, they are caught up and the corpses are separated, they can't beg for mercy, they can't think about it, because the little eunuch said don't take prisoners!
Bai Wang finally pulled up a broken horse behind the battle was also scattered by Wang Yien and Yuan Sanzhong's defeated soldiers, tens of thousands of thieves cried and shouted to run south along the mountain road, of course, there were also people to climb the mountain, and behind him Chang Yu had launched a whole army pursuit, thousands of Nanjing soldiers rushed to the front, and there were tens of thousands of people shouting behind him, and the momentum was monstrous.
The thief army ran for three or four miles in one breath, and was exhausted, but the officers and soldiers behind them still pursued relentlessly, so they had to grit their teeth and continue to flee south along the riverbank, and some of them turned around and rushed directly into the mountains.
Bai Wang's eyes were red and sweaty under the support of his own soldiers, and he was extremely embarrassed, and he became more and more panicked when he saw the officers and soldiers chasing after him, because he knew that a few miles ahead was the Qingtong River blocking the road, and at that time, there would be no way to escape, and he could only look to the east to drill in the mountains.
At this moment, Wang Yien came galloping on his horse, pointing to the river and shouting: "Dashuai, boat, boat!" ”
There are more than 100 boats on the riverside, which were left by Wang Zamao.
Bai Wang was overjoyed, so that Yuan Sanzhong Palace, the rest of the boat boarded the river and went up to the mouth of the Qingtong River to ferry the rout to the south bank, and at this time the officers and soldiers chased the small ten miles is also weak, the chase is gradually slowing down, plus Yuan Sanzhong's desperate resistance, when Chang Yu led the army to the Qingtong River, the thief army has crossed the river to the opposite bank, of course, it is impossible to ferry only by more than 100 boats so fast, the thief army is familiar with the water, and then the chasing soldiers who have such a good concentration and wait for the boat to ferry, directly jump into the river and swim over, this Qingtong River is not as wide as the Yangtze River The water flow is turbulent, It is only less than thirty meters wide.
After crossing the river, Bai Wang immediately reorganized his troops and horses to form a defensive line on the opposite bank, he couldn't let the officers and soldiers kill him, otherwise he could directly rush to the city of Chizhou, this is absolutely not good, he needs time to prepare for the city defense!
