Chapter 339: The Great Rout
Whining......
When the horns of different syllables sounded, Luo Quan felt as if he was in a dream. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The barbarian soldiers, who had been in the midst of a fierce battle, began to disperse after hearing this horn, and this rout began to spread rapidly from the vicinity of Fencheng to the center of the battlefield.
"This is the barbarians' clarion call for retreat." Luo Quan was surprised with surprise, the current battlefield situation was obviously dominant, how could the barbarians withdraw their troops at this time.
But this was the case, the barbarian cavalry at this time left behind the slave soldiers on the battlefield and retreated back desperately.
The soldiers on the battlefield also showed confused looks, and the fierce barbarian soldiers began to run backwards.
Out of caution, Luo Quan did not immediately order the soldiers to take advantage of the victory to pursue, because now the barbarian forces still have the advantage.
This retreat will most likely be a trap.
But when he saw the barbarian soldiers dismantling the silver tent, he was finally sure that the barbarians had really withdrawn.
He stood down and shouted to his subordinates: "Beat the drums of war and let the cavalry pursue!" ”
The "dong dong ......" war drums sounded again, and the Jinwuwei cavalry and the Qingzhou cuirassiers rode horses to chase down the rout.
And some of the barbarian slave soldiers simply dropped their weapons and chose to surrender.
At the West City Gate, Niu Ben didn't know what was going on, the horn of the barbarian retreat suddenly came, and the barbarian cavalry in front of them immediately retreated after the first wave of impact.
"Governor, what's going on?" Lu Fei scratched his head with a puzzled look.
He also thought that this war would last for several months, but he didn't expect that now the barbarians would choose to retreat, which is really incredible.
"Brake with static, and see what tricks the barbarians are playing." Niu Ben, like Luo Quan, is a cautious person.
After observing for a while, Niu Ben frowned, the withdrawal of this barbarian soldier was out of order, there must be something wrong with the barbarians.
He said: "Lu Fei, I'm afraid the barbarians have really withdrawn, so they will pursue immediately and expand the results." ”
Lu Fei nodded, and led the cavalry out of the chariot formation to kill the barbarian fleeing cavalry.
At this time in Jizhou City, Chen Xinran also noticed the change of the barbarians, and the barbarian cavalry and slave soldiers outside the city were retreating backwards.
The previously tight encirclement disappeared because of the retreat of the barbarian soldiers.
An hour later, all the barbarian soldiers outside Jizhou City withdrew to the north, and at this time, a military flag of the Great Chongqing Kingdom appeared in his field of vision.
"Qi!"
Chen Xinran trembled with excitement.
"The barbarians have withdrawn, and the King of Qi and the forbidden army have won!" A thought rose uncontrollably in his mind.
After the "Qi" character military flag appeared, and then Jin Wuwei's banner appeared again, at this time Chen Xinran once again did not doubt him, and he immediately went to the Yongwang Mansion.
Outside the city of Jizhou, at this time, Niu Ben, Luo Quan and Zhan Xingchang met together.
Now they confirmed that the barbarians had really retreated, and because of this, they rushed to Jizhou City at this time, and the barbarians in Jizhou City also retreated.
"What the hell is going on? Why did the barbarians withdraw, Luo Quan, didn't you see you standing so high? Niu Ben asked.
Luo Quan shook his head, "The battlefield is so chaotic, how can I see everything clearly, but it seems to be your credit." ”
"It doesn't matter if you don't take the credit, the most important thing now is to figure out what's going on." Niu Ben frowned.
While the two were talking, suddenly Lu Fei returned, followed by two cavalrymen, one of whom was on the horse of a slave soldier.
"Dudu, I figured it out, Bei Shan was accidentally injured by our shell, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, because this barbarian retreated." Lu Fei said.
"Our shells!" Luo Xin followed behind Niu Ben, and when he heard this, he suddenly screamed.
"It's your cannonballs!" Lu Fei rarely buried Luo Xin this time, "Now your artillery has a long face." ”
Luo Quan looked at Luo Xin with a thick smile in his eyes, but his face remained serious, and said: "In this case, the rout of the barbarians makes sense, Bei Shan is Taiji, he was hit by a cannonball, he was either killed or injured, and the dragons were leaderless, so the barbarians naturally couldn't fight again." ”
Niu Ben nodded and said to Lu Fei: "You quickly received His Highness to come to Jizhou City to discuss the future matters, this time Bei Shan was injured, it was when he took advantage of the victory to pursue, I can't say that we can recapture Shanhaiguan in one fell swoop." ”
"Shanhaiguan!" Luo Quan's body trembled, this Xiongguan was once the gateway to the north of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.
Once the Shanhaiguan Pass is recaptured, it means that the northern rivers and mountains will no longer have to face the threat of the barbarians' iron hooves, and they will be safe from now on.
Niu Ben laughed when he saw Luo Quan's expression, he and Luo Quan hadn't seen each other for five years, but the friendship between the two was still the same as back then, he said: "Originally, His Royal Highness had a plan for the Northern Expedition in the autumn, but I didn't expect the Jizhou Rebellion Bei Shan to take the opportunity to go south, if the results are outstanding, the results should be expanded in time, no surprise to me, His Royal Highness the King of Qi will definitely let the Qingzhou army wave north to seize Shanhaiguan, but I don't know if Jin Wuwei can take Shanhaiguan with us." ”
Luo Quan's excited smile was suddenly mixed with a hint of helplessness, and he said: "I'm afraid this can't be, Your Majesty has an order, our task is to lift the siege of Jizhou, now that the barbarians have been defeated, we have completed the emperor's order, and we will return to the dynasty when the division will not be in the future." ”
Niu Ben saw that Luo Quan's expression was wrong, so he asked: "I'm afraid it's not the emperor's order, is it that now Your Majesty is suspicious again and starts to suspect you." ”
Niu Ben was suspicious of Xiao Wenxuan back then, and then he was exiled to the mine, and his mood that day was the same as Luo Quan today.
"Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, those of us who are courtiers can only be cautious, this time Jin Wuwei lost most of it, I am afraid that His Majesty and the courtiers are also relieved."
When he said this, Luo Quan's voice was bitter.
"Phew! I'm really angry with me, I said it's better to vote for His Royal Highness the King of Qi like me, as long as those who betray the country and seek glory are killed, what good will happen to those of us who are loyal to the country. ”
Luo Quan said nervously: "This can't be nonsense, you are now representing His Royal Highness the King of Qi, if this word reaches Chang'an, I am afraid it will not be good for His Highness." ”
Niu Ben was stunned, cold sweat flowed behind his back, he looked around at his own people, and then he was a little relieved, but he didn't dare to mention this time again.
Sighing, Niu Ben said: "Don't mention it, you know this trick better than me, you can't say that you can turn the danger into a disaster, now let's talk about how to divide this spoils, I don't want these things to be taken advantage of by King Wei and King Yong." ”
At the mention of this, Luo Quandeng's eyes widened, and he nodded and said, "That's right, this loot is divided equally between our two families, and we must not cheapen these two faint kings." ”
When the two said this, all the Qingzhou generals and the generals of the forbidden army smiled.
The defeat of the barbarians left a large number of ownerless war horses in the area of Fencheng and Jizhou, which is a real wealth.
