Chapter 1080 - Alone in the Deep (Happy New Year)

The defeat is like a mountain, and the illness is like a thread.

The right-wing Wu army suffered a crushing defeat in a fierce battle, encountered dense flames, and was at the end of its rope.

Their defeat led to a sharp offensive of the coalition forces, which not only completely collapsed, but also needed to save themselves quickly.

At this time, Han Xiandang led the water division to reduce the pressure on his shoulders a lot, and the Wu army withdrew, creating a golden opportunity for the Yanshui division to counterattack.

"Kill!"

Witnessing the Wu army in the middle of the river, ready to flee. Han Xiandang drew out the ring head knife and raised it, pointed at the defeated Wu army that was caught in the sea of fire, and ordered the guards on all sides: "General Chuanben's order, the forward army, desperately block the offensive of the Song army, the right wing army, pursue the Wu army, no matter how much it costs, be sure to hit it hard, if there is a chance, strive to capture Nangong Yu alive."

"Yes!" The four guards bowed their heads in unison, turned sharply, beat drums and trumpets, and moved quickly.

However, Han Xiandang did not delay for a moment, and continued: "Convey military orders to the Yan army on the left flank, cooperate with the air flying army, and always be ready to attack the Vietnamese army, and be sure not to give the Vietnamese army any chance when the flying army attacks." ”

"Don't worry, the general will personally lead the troops into battle." There is a general next to it.

Before, when the Flying Army attacked the Wu army on the right flank, the Yan army had no time to cooperate, so that in the first battle of the Flying Army, it was almost forced to retreat by the Wu army's guns and boulders.

At this time, the war on the left wing will begin immediately, and the mistakes of the past must not be repeated.

In addition, if the naval division and the flying army form a seamless cooperation, it is bound to kill the Vietnamese army on a larger scale and speed up the defeat of the Vietnamese army.

Han Xiandang noticed the existence of the Vietnamese army on the left flank of the Yan army, and was already preparing to launch a fierce offensive against the Vietnamese army on the left flank.

At this time, among the Vietnamese warships, Li Cunjie and Mu Junchen led 100,000 Vietnamese troops who did not dare to break through, but led the army to retreat in panic.

When evacuating, Li Cunjie and Mu Junchen witnessed the western sky, and suddenly billowing smoke appeared, as if to block the sky.

Suddenly, the two of them suddenly looked serious, and their words and deeds were also a little panicked.

To the west is the Wu Army's Naval Division, which has strong combat effectiveness, and before the Air Flying Army arrives, it has already inflicted heavy damage on the Yanshui Division.

Who knows, not long after the air flight army rescued the Yan army, the coalition forces were still evacuating, and there was billowing smoke on the warship.

Although Li Cunjie and Mu Junchen did not know what happened to Wu Jun, they dared to guarantee that they must have a close connection with the clay pot that fell in the sky.

The arrival of reinforcements from the Yan army, the Vietnamese army was still in danger, and now, the Sky Flying Army shot a rain of arrows, and the Yan Army naval division in the west also tried to attack the Vietnamese army.

Li Cunjie and Mu Junchen were worried that the Yan army would attack one after another, and the Vietnamese army would be reduced to a situation of being surrounded.

However, the two of them led the army, but there was no suitable way to defend themselves against the enemy.

In addition, Mu Junchen once led Cai Shuishi to defeat in the hands of Han Xiandang, and he was disdainful of Yanshui Division on the surface, however, if Yanshui Division attacked with all his might, he was still jealous of Yanshui Division in his bones, worried that the Yan Army's overwhelming attack would cause serious damage to Yueshui Division.

is especially worried that he will be under the Cai Guoshui Division, and in the face of the flying army, he may fall into the tragic experience of the annihilation of the whole army.

If he loses this army, it means losing the right to fight, and he will have nothing to rely on in Yue.

In time, when he returns to the court of the Yue Kingdom, his status will inevitably be greatly reduced.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Yan armies of the two sides had not yet formed a flanking attack on the Vietnamese army, Mu Junchen did not hesitate at all, moved to Li Cunjie's side, and proposed: "General Li, the flying army is menacing, and the Yan army in the west is about to move.

Once the Yan army attacks from both sides, we will be in an extremely bad situation, and it will be difficult for us to retreat in one piece. ”

After all, the Yan army suffered heavy losses on the Cai army in an extremely difficult situation and completely captured the Cai country, and now, the flying army attacked from the northern sky, Mu Junchen was extremely worried that the Yan army had the ability to come back to life.

Turn the tide and turn the tide.

Li Cunjie looked up at the smoke billowing from the sky to the west, and cold sweat couldn't help but flow down his forehead.

Before the battle, Yue Jun personally summoned him and repeatedly reminded him that if he could defeat the Yan army's sailors, he would inevitably suffer heavy losses. If it can't be inflicted heavy losses, or the Yan army has signs of counterattack, strive to preserve the vitality of the Vietnamese army.

At present, among the remaining vassal states in the north and south, the strength of the Yue State is at the bottom, even if there is a famous general Yue Yunshan of the Chu State to take refuge, even if Mu Junchen leads Cai Shuishi to take refuge, however, it is still impossible to change the fact that the Yue State has lost troops in foreign wars for many years.

At present, the Vietnamese country is fighting against foreign countries, and it is necessary to conquer cities and territories, but in the course of the war, it is also necessary to ensure that the Vietnamese army is not harmed and to preserve as much of the Vietnamese army's vital strength as possible.

At this moment, he was also entangled from the bottom of his heart, whether the attack of the flying army and the counterattack of the Yanshui Division would cause damage to the Vietnamese army, at present, there was no way to predict it.

Li Cunjie said without hesitation: "Order the whole army to retreat quickly, strive to retreat to the rear of the Song army in the shortest possible time, and use the Song army as a block to evacuate and transfer." ”

Hearing this, Mu Junchen couldn't help asking: "General Li, wouldn't it be a betrayal of the Song army if we evacuate and hide behind the Song army?" ”

On the battlefield, if the friendly army is betrayed, it is easy to cause the friendly army to suffer a heavy blow, why bother, there are many warships on the river, if the Vietnamese army flees from the direction of the Song army, the Yan army is in hot pursuit, it is easy to confuse the coalition forces on the river, causing very serious damage to both sides.

However, when Li Cunjie heard this, he did not hesitate to say: "I don't care about it, in this case, we should take the lead in protecting the Vietnamese army, let's act quickly, otherwise, if the Yan army launches a fire attack, our situation will become extremely dangerous, and it is even possible that we will not be able to escape from the encirclement of the Yan army in the Yan army's serial attacks." ”

Hearing this, Mu Junchen did not hesitate, hurriedly turned around, signaled all the Vietnamese troops under his tent, and quickly moved to the east.

In the sky, Lin Shi witnessed that Lin Hu was on the right flank, which had dealt a heavy blow to the Wu army, and at this moment, he was not far behind, and saw that the Vietnamese army had signs of escaping, and immediately ordered: "Throw the clay pot and let the Vietnamese army burn themselves in a long fire." ”

For Wu and Yue, Lin Shi has no good impression, he and the emperor led the army to fight for many years, sometimes with Wu Yue alliance, sometimes with Wu Yue against each other, for this kind of wall grass, today must teach each other a hard lesson,

What's more, the strength of the naval divisions of Wu and Vietnam is even greater than the combat effectiveness of the army, so the greater the blow to the Wu and Yue coalition forces, the more the strength of Wu and Vietnam will be weakened.

Now, Wu Guoshui has suffered a heavy blow from the Yan army under Lin Hu's tent, and at this time, he must inflict heavy losses on the Yue army.

Hearing the sound, the Yan army moved in the sky, acted quickly, put away the crossbow in his hand, put the clay pot in the hot air balloon, and led it to the bottom of the warship.

As the clay pot fell to the ground and shattered, the fire oil splashed off the deck, and the flames generated by the river and the rocket burned, instantly, causing raging flames to spread rapidly on the river surface.

In an instant, a continuous sea of fire was formed on the surface of the river where the river flowed.

The Vietnamese fled in panic, and on the crowded river, the warships collided with each other, making a dull crashing sound.

Mu Junchen and Li Cunjie noticed the sudden change in their actions, and the river suddenly burst into flames, and the closer they got to the Yan army's warship, the more serious the fire above became.

Mu Junchen hurriedly said to Li Cunjie: "General Li, it is not a way to go on like this, the Yan army seems to be prepared, in this kind of strong flame, we are afraid that we will not be able to break out of the encirclement of the Yan army." ”

Hearing this, Li Cunjie also realized that they were a little late, and they happened to be on the path of the coalition army, and if there was no way to extinguish the flames or stop the Yan army from attacking, things would become extremely dangerous.

However, the current situation is terrible, he has no way at all, not to mention whether he can stop the attack of the Yan army, and whether he can lead the army to escape from the fierce attack of the Yan army, it is difficult to predict.

After a little silence, Mu Junchen said bluntly: "General Li, the last general suggested that a message be sent to the Song army, asking the Song army to assist in attacking the Yan army, we quickly extinguished the flames, and also quickly counterattacked the Yan army. ”

The Yan army was in the air, the Vietnamese army was in the middle of the river, and in the face of the condescending Vietnamese army, the Yan army was in a very bad situation.

If the passive defense is made, the Vietnamese army will be gradually annihilated by the Yan army sooner or later in the series of attacks by the Yan army, however, if the Song and Yue armies unite and change the tactics of defending as the offensive and taking the initiative to attack and defend, who dares to say that the coalition forces cannot reverse the current situation?

However, Li Cunjie directly rejected Mu Junchen's suggestion, he was worried that when the danger came, the Song army would not help the Vietnamese army, and in addition, the fires on the warships of the Vietnamese army were getting more and more fierce, and it was almost impossible to quickly extinguish the flames.

In addition, the Yan army is constantly attacking in the sky, and if it is delayed for a while, the clay pots in the air will continue to fall, which will make the situation of the Vietnamese army worse than worse, and it will be extremely bad if it continues.

The Vietnamese army's 100,000 sailors and 1,000 warships were most likely all killed in the fire.

Li Cunjie commanded bluntly, and said: "General Mu, according to the general's plan, quickly flee eastward, as long as we avoid the rear of the Song army, there is a Song army to block the Yan army, the pressure on our country will be reduced a lot, if we fight again, you and I don't want to leave alive." ”

Hearing this, Mu Junchen really didn't know what to say, so in desperation, he could only turn around and leave in a hurry, signaling the whole army to continue moving forward in the raging flames.

At this moment, Mu Junchen didn't dare to imagine that the Vietnamese army would be able to escape the pursuit of the Yan army, and even worse, he might not be able to sit in the east of the trouble.

Li Cunjie suggested that he was too self-righteous, and if he could not escape, the Vietnamese army would most likely be wiped out.

However, he was only a general in the Yue Kingdom, and his status in the Yue Kingdom was not high, so he could not persuade Li Cunjie at all.

Although he knew that Li Cunjie's tactics were problematic and might cause disaster to the whole army, he had no choice but to carry them out, Li Cunjie suggested.

Fortunately, at this time, the Song army in front took the initiative to take the lead in attacking the approaching Yan army when the Yan army was rapidly approaching.

Although the Song army's defense did not threaten the Yan army, if the Yan army continued to approach, it would sooner or later fall into the range of the Song army's attack.

It was only the attack of the Song army, and it was easy to deal a big blow to the Vietnamese army that was rapidly advancing eastward, causing the Vietnamese army to suffer an unwarranted disaster.

However, Mu Junchen was already satisfied with this, after all, if he continued, he would be able to block the pursuit of the Yan army, so that the Vietnamese army could escape death in the worst situation.

At this moment, on the river, the Yan Army Naval Division, and the Wu Yue Naval Division on the left and right wings have fallen into a sea of fire.

Witnessing the situation on the river, Mu Junchen signaled to the Vietnamese army to cooperate closely with the Song army, no matter whether the Yan army could be severely damaged or not, as long as the Vietnamese army escaped death and evacuated safely.

For a while, the Vietnamese army who fled in a hurry fought and retreated, even if the flying army was rapidly approaching from the rear, Mu Junchen still did not give up commanding the Vietnamese army to attack.

In the sky, Lin Shi witnessed the situation on the river, when the Yan army attacked, the Vietnamese army still dared to resist, Lin Shi's majesty was provoked, and he couldn't help but bluntly instructed the Yan army around him, saying: "Operate the hot air balloon to get close to the main warship of the Vietnamese army, and the general will personally kill the generals of the Vietnamese army and teach them some lessons." ”

"General, the Song army in front has launched an offensive, continue to move forward, it will break into the Song army's shooting circle, and the general's situation will be very dangerous." The guard next to him kindly reminded him that he also noticed that the Vietnamese army was fleeing, and suddenly turned around to counterattack, all because the Song army was attacking from the east.

Lin Shi asked to control the hot air balloon to the direction of the main battlefield of the Vietnamese army, and the guards were very worried about breaking into the range of the Song army's attack.

However, Lin Shi's face was condensed, and he said in a sharp tone: "Why did we come to the south, you should know it well, since we are here, we should be ready to fight to the death at any time, if we can't rescue the river water division, what is the point of us evacuating safely?" ”

All the reinforcements who came to the south this time knew their responsibilities, and to put it bluntly, they could not help but be reinforcements, but also death squads.

Hearing Lin Shi's words, the guards did not hesitate, personally controlled the hot air balloon, and in the sky, dodged the rain of gunfire shot by the Song army, and moved forward cautiously.

During the move, Lin Shi turned to the Yan army in the hot air balloon and ordered: "Prepare clay pots, rockets, get close to the main warship of the Yue Kingdom, throw them as soon as possible, and don't give the other party any chance." ”

Hearing the sound, the nine Yan soldiers in the hot air balloon, in addition to controlling the Yan army in the hot air balloon, the remaining four Yan soldiers acted as soon as Lin Shi ordered.

On the river, Qin Ming, Mu Junchen, and Li Cunjie also noticed that in the sky, there was a hot air balloon in the Song army's offensive, and the army was advancing alone.

Looking at it, Qin Ming couldn't help but chuckle, the Yan army was so bold that he dared to go deep alone, and he didn't take the Song army's attack in his eyes, Qin Ming immediately made a decision and ordered the guards around him: "Order the soldiers to control the bed crossbow, be sure to defeat the lone army to go deep into the Yan army, and give them a little lesson." ”

"General rest assured,"

However, Mu Junchen and Li Cunjie couldn't help but become more and more worried when they saw a hot air balloon in the sky moving alone, and they couldn't help but become more and more worried when they approached the warship they were in.

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse first, capture the thief first capture the king, and the opponent is approaching at the risk of death, and is bound to prepare to attack the main warship.

Once the Yan army approached, the warship they were on would be extremely dangerous, and if they were not careful, they might be killed in the fire.

Li Cunjie couldn't help but shout to the Vietnamese troops on all sides: "Stop the attack and quickly control the warship to move forward." ”

"Quick, control the ship forward." Mu Junchen also drank eagerly.

He didn't expect that the Yan army's methods were vicious and insidious, and they would adopt the tactics of smashing Huanglong.

Today, if it is attacked, the Vietnamese army is in a state of leaderlessness, and it is unimaginable what kind of situation it will face.

On the Yan army's side, Han Xiandang also noticed Lin Shi's situation, he didn't expect that Lin Shi assisted the sailor in the attack, although regardless of the danger to his life, he went directly to the army alone, putting his own safety at risk, and couldn't help but order the guards around him: "Inform all the Yan troops in the forward, bed crossbows, and catapults, and give Ben the general to sink all the attacking Song troops on the opposite side." ”
