Chapter 922: All the way to the east
The soldiers sat quietly in the valley wrapped in cloaks, their white cloaks almost blending in with the outside world in the snowy world. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ infoNo one spoke, everyone took out the last bit of dry food from the deflated grain bag and stuffed it into their mouths, chewed a few mouthfuls of dry food, and pulled a handful of snow from front of them and stuffed it into their mouths. There was no need to save any more, now they needed to fill their stomachs, and the next thing was to rush out of the mountains, fight hard, and then take the supplies they needed from the enemy.
Scissors has been in the western border army for four years, and what An Ruhai left behind is such a strong army. An Ruhai himself is also leading the troops, of course, he knows that the scissors have made great contributions to the training of such an army, and because of this, he didn't like scissors, but he still asked for the scissors again and again, making the scissors the second second lieutenant general in the Western Army.
But after Scissors made a final war plan for him, he disappeared from Anyang, and when he got the news again, it was Scissors who committed suicide outside Yuejing City, which made An Ruhai both sad and angry.
Personally, he doesn't like scissors. But from a business point of view, this man is his right-hand man. The current combat effectiveness of the Western Army is not inferior to that of any Chu army, which is the legacy of scissors. It is precisely for this reason that An Ruhai has always been deeply vigilant against the Ming army.
When Scissors enlisted in the army, he was just a peddler, and his military strategy was completely taught by Qin Feng with one hand and one foot, the disciple is like this, the master can imagine that in recent years, the Ming army has been almost invincible on the battlefield, destroying the Yue State alive, and fighting the Qin State with only one breath left, if it were not for this, he would not dare to come out with 10,000 of the most elite Western Army.
He originally thought that his surprise troops were outstanding, and he could completely disrupt the deployment of the Qi army and create fighters for the main force, but his attack did not report to the emperor of Chu, and the only one who knew that he was gone was his current deputy general Suqian. Once in the mountains, he cut off all contact with the outside world.
In a month, too many things happened outside, but he didn't expect that it was the month when he lost contact with the outside that the battle situation would change so much.
When entering the mountain, the Chu army was still marching forward, and now he finally got the news from the outside, but An Ruhai was struck by lightning, and the main army of Chu was surrounded in Chen County, Luzhou, which was in danger.
Fu Yafei looked at An Ruhai with some dumbfounded, looking at the troops sitting neatly in the valley, he couldn't imagine how such an army could have crossed the primeval forest like the Luoying Mountains in winter and appeared in front of him. Today, when he found the internal guard summoning order in Luoying County, he never thought that he would see An Ruhai.
An Ruhai was the previous commander of the internal guard, an existence that he had to look up to, and he never imagined that one day, he would see this legend with his own eyes.
An Ruhai was also silent, the information that Fu Yafei brought to him was shocking, if the army of Chu was destroyed in this battle, for Chu State, it would be a catastrophe. Almost all of the elite troops in the country have been put into this operation.
"Grand Commander, go back." Fu Yafei stood in front of An Ruhai, full of pain, "The war has been chaotic and there is no help." The more than 100,000 troops trapped in Luzhou could not hold out for long, the grain route was cut off, and now a Qi army has gone straight to Kunling Pass, and there are not many troops left in Kunling Pass. β
"Go back, how do you go back?" An Ruhai laughed miserably: "Now that we have nothing, we will starve to death in the forest if we embark on the return journey." β
"Then take Luoying County, raise enough grain and grass in Luoying County, and then kill all the way back. Now the country of Chu needs you! Fu Yafei said loudly.
"Even if Luoying County is taken, when you want to return to Chu from Luoying County, there will be many passes along the way, and with less than 10,000 horses and horses, the final result will be the annihilation of the entire army." An Ruhai sighed: "Fu Yafei, we have no way out. β
Fu Yafei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he naturally knew that An Ruhai was telling the truth.
"General, the army can't go back, but you can go back alone, Da Chu now needs a person who can coordinate the overall situation. Whether it is General Luo Liang or General Cheng Wuben, they are all caught in this war, and it is uncertain whether they can go back. β
"I am as safe as the sea, am I the one who left his brother to flee for his life?" An Ruhai suddenly laughed, "But even if Luo Liang is dead, Cheng Wuben is dead, and I, An Ruhai, are also dead, but I am Dachu, and there will still be more outstanding generals." Fu Yafei, are you afraid of death? β
Fu Yafei puffed out his chest, "Grand Commander, I am the secret stake of the internal guard, between death, do you say that I will be afraid of death?" β
An Ruhai laughed, stretched out his hand and patted Fu Yafei's shoulder, "Although I left the internal guard, but the emperor's grace back then, he did not take back the waist card of my internal guard, you take my waist card, gather all the internal guards you can muster, and provide information to my army." β
"Where is the Grand Commander going?" Fu Yafei asked.
"I'm going to fight all the way to Chang'an." An Ruhai's tone was firm: "Even if I am the only one left, I will hold high the banner of Dachu and march all the way to Chang'an." I won't stop at any place, but I need the arrangement of the soldiers of Qi along the way, where there is grain and grass, and where the other party's heavy troops are gathered, do you understand what I mean? β
Fu Yafei took a deep breath, he understood what An Ruhai meant, the commander was dying, he wanted to approach Chang'an all the way like a bee fire, every time he passed, he didn't attack the city, he didn't plunder the land, he just marched, and he kept marching forward. He needs to avoid the encirclement and interception of the Qi army along the way, and avoid the real and the false, which requires accurate intelligence support.
"Yes, General." Fu Yafei was a little excited, although he knew that the final outcome was already doomed, but if he could accompany the Great Commander to see Chang'an City, his life would be worth it. It's just a dark pile, and when he dies, he is supposed to work with his head, so why die?
"The villain will do it right away." Fu Yafei said loudly.
"Do you have any contact with the Eagle's Nest in the Ming Kingdom?" An Ruhai asked.
Fu Yafei nodded for a moment: "Grand Commander, you also know that those who do our business will have some contact. β
"Tell them about my plans and say I need their help." Anru Haido.
"Archon, will they help us?" Fu Yafei was a little stunned, "In the past few years, the Eagle's Nest has developed rapidly, and as far as the villain knows, the power of the Eagle's Nest in the Qi Kingdom has far surpassed our internal guards. β
"Guo Jiuling, sure enough, you still have to be older and spicier, Yang Qing, it's really not as good as him!" An Ruhai sighed, there was a coup d'Γ©tat that year, Da Chu lost a brave general, and now that person has split the territory and become the founding emperor, and has lost a deputy commander of the internal guard, and now this person has become a big problem for the internal guard.
"They'll help us." An Ruhai is definitely authentic.
Fu Yafei left quietly, and An Ruhai summoned two of his own personal soldiers. The martial arts cultivation of these two people has reached the seventh level or above, and they are rare good hands in the army.
"I will write a letter, you take this letter with you, return to Anyang immediately, and send the letter to General Suqian." An Ruhai looked at the two of them and said.
"General, the big war is coming, how can we leave the general?" The two soldiers were shocked when they heard this.
"Because what I have given you is more important than you going to charge." An Ruhai stared at the two of them, "You two have profound martial arts cultivation, and you are good at tracking in the wild, in the Luoying Mountains, the probability of survival is much stronger than that of others, remember, even if you die, you have to hand over the letter to General Suqian before you can die, understand?" β
Hearing An Ruhai say so seriously, the expressions of the two of them suddenly became solemn, and they both fell to the ground, "General, the last general will not fail in his mission." β
"Good!" An Ruhai patted the two of them on the shoulder.
It was getting dark, An Ruhai sent away two of his personal guards, and appeared in front of his troops with knives, he was not prepared to tell the soldiers that the Chu State had encountered a great predicament, on the contrary, what he told the troops would be a different situation.
"Brothers!" An Ruhai raised his big knife and said loudly: "The army led by His Majesty the Emperor has broken the Qi army and is advancing towards the hinterland of the Qi country, and we will become another sharp knife of His Majesty, a sharp knife that surprises the Qi people, we will go straight to Chang'an, the capital of Qi State, and now the capital of Qi State, all the elite troops have been transferred to intercept the main army of my Great Chu, and we will avoid the real and go straight to the capital of Qi State, as long as we appear under Chang'an City, Chang'an is in our pocket, I hope that when His Majesty's banner appears in Chang'an, the banner of our Great Chu and the banner of our Western Army have been planted on the city of Chang'an, do you dare to fight with me? β
"Dare!" The soldiers roared excitedly, brandishing their knives and guns in their hands.
"Brothers, follow me all the way east!" An Ruhai roared.
"All the way to the east, all the way to the east!" Eight thousand soldiers, under the leadership of An Ruhai, walked towards the outside of the Luoying Mountains, and their first target was Luoying County, where they had to grab enough grain and grass to support them in the second place.
That night, the unsuspecting Luoying City fell, An Ruhai did not grab too much grain and grass in the city, each soldier carried ten catties of rations per person, and robbed all the spirits in the city. Each soldier was also given two catties, and in such a cold winter weather, the spirits would provide them with some energy.
When they left Luoying County, the entire Luoying County had fallen into a raging fire, An Ruhai did not kill indiscriminately, he was never a person who took pleasure in slaughtering the people, but he drove all the Qi people out of the city, and then burned Luoying County with a fire.
Because what he wants to do now is to create chaos in the Qi country, and the bigger the chaos, the better.
