Chapter 651: The soldiers retreated from the Jade Gate Pass

Dunhuang's city defense was originally quite strong, and Zhang Ji was a Hexi Wang clan, with a huge family power in Dunhuang, and now it is basically hopeless to recapture Dunhuang, and the pursuit of the Shu army is coming, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury for the bald tree function.

"Bald chief, why don't we retreat to Yumen Pass first, and then make a decision." Ma Xun is also helpless.

Yumen Pass is in the west of Dunhuang, is an important pass from Hexi into the Western Regions, has been sent to guard the army, but it is a border pass, that means that Yumen Pass does not have much permanent population, and Dunhuang such a county is not comparable, retreat to Yumen Pass, that is to say, their living space will become more and more narrow, and then want to control the Hexi Kou is probably a luxury, and even if the Shu army pursues, whether Yumen Pass can be held is a problem, the final result is likely to be to retreat to the Western Regions, Completely reduced to exile.

But now that Dunhuang has been lost, they have lost their last room for maneuver, and perhaps Yumen Pass has become their only option.

The bald tree function could only nod in agreement, and led this remnant in the direction of Yumen Pass.

After the sandstorm ended, the Shu army began to clean up the battlefield and sent many cavalry to pursue the fleeing Xianbei soldiers in all directions.

In the sandstorm, there was chaos, those Xianbei people who were unwilling to be tied up began to flee frantically, in such an environment, the east and the west are not distinguished, the north and the south are not distinguished, and if you want to find a correct direction, it is completely more difficult than climbing to the sky, but the Xianbei people obviously don't care about these, as long as they can escape, it doesn't matter if they can escape in that direction.

After the sandstorm ended, the Shu army found that there were really a lot of fish that slipped through the net, and Yao Yikang, Deng Pu, and Fu Zhi, who were in command at the scene, immediately sent a number of small cavalry detachments, centered on this place, and pursued them outward in a radial shape.

Needless to say, this strategy of the Shu army has received miraculous results, many of the Xianbei soldiers who escaped from the encirclement are mostly lost, unable to distinguish between the southeast and northwest, and do not know where to go, just when they are hesitating, the Shu army that moves as fast as the wind is already in pursuit, and the guerrillas of the Xianbei people who escaped are scattered, and at this moment they have become lonely prey, once they are locked by the Shu cavalry, there is almost no chance of escape.

In this way, the cavalry detachment of the Shu army hunted a lot of Xianbei deserters, and gained a lot, but the team that pursued to the west encountered the troops of the bald tree function, due to the disadvantage in numbers, the pursuing detachment did not dare to advance lightly, and the bald tree function did not dare to fight, and the two sides only retreated after a short contact.

The lieutenant marquis, who was in charge of this pursuit detachment, did not retreat easily, but tracked the retreat direction of the bald tree function from a distance, while sending people to report to Deng Pufu, the commander of the Tiger Cavalry Battalion, and asked for troops to be sent to support.

After receiving the report, Deng Pu and Fu Zhi did not dare to act without authorization, and immediately made Liu Yin clear. After Liu Yin heard the news, he immediately judged that the bald tree function was to flee to Dunhuang, and immediately ordered Yao Yikang's department and the Tiger Cavalry Battalion to gather men and horses to pursue in the direction of Dunhuang, and as for cleaning the battlefield, it was handed over to Fu Zhao of the Hubu Right Battalion to carry out.

Fu Zhao was really frustrated to the extreme, originally he had already set up a partial van formation on the road that the Xianbei people must pass, and was waiting for the results, but a sudden sandstorm blew his partial van formation into pieces, and also brought a lot of casualties to his Hubu right battalion, and even Fu Tuo was almost smashed into a meatloaf by the flying partial van. has never suffered such a big loss on the battlefield, Fu Zhao is really depressed to death.

And the bald tree function that should have been caught has escaped at this moment, and the rest of the battle has nothing to do with the right battalion of Hubu, Fu Zhao "picked up" a task to clean up the battlefield, which made his originally depressed face longer.

Cleaning up the battlefield is hard work, like this is buried by the big sandstorm to clean up the battlefield is more difficult, the soldiers of the Shu army laboriously dig out the corpses of those war horses and personnel from the sand, the corpses still need to be reburied, the collected weapons, armor, baggage, grain and grass and other things need to be classified and collected, and the dead war horses are transported to the house, such delicious food can not be wasted in vain.

Just when Fu Zhao was holding a piece of grass in his mouth and watching the soldiers clean up the battlefield boredly, suddenly the herald trotted all the way to him: "Pass the hussar general's order, and the right battalion of Hubu is ready to fight." ”

Fu Zhao's spirit was shaken, he opened his mouth and spit out the grass in his mouth, and said excitedly: "There is another battle?" Who are you going to fight this time? ”

The herald said: "The bones on the top of the mountain can't hold it, and now they are breaking through to this side, and the hussar general orders your troops to intercept them on the spot immediately, and they must not be allowed to escape." ”

Fu Zhao's eyes lit up, it turned out that the bones on the Sanwei Mountain couldn't sit still, and now he wanted to run, hehe, the master was still worried about the lack of fighting, so you sent it to the door, this is called heaven has a way for you not to go, hell has no door to send it up, if you want to find a home from here, there is no door!

"Stop cleaning the battlefield and prepare to meet the enemy!" Fu Zhao ordered loudly.

Boneless can witness the fiasco of the bald tree function on the Sanwei Mountain, his heart is like falling into an ice cellar, wow cool and cool, looking forward to the stars and the moon is finally the reinforcements he is looking forward to, but Boneless can never dream that it will be such a result, the cavalry of the Xianbei people is almost completely wiped out, even if the bald tree function can escape by luck, but he has completely lost the ability to fight again, and now he is trapped on the Sanwei Mountain, completely in a desperate situation.

There is no food and grass inside, no reinforcements outside, and then stay on the Sanwei Mountain, it is a dead end, no bones can not sit still, no matter what, can no longer sit still, no bones can immediately pick up all the soldiers and horses on the main peak, open the gate of the village, and rush down the mountain.

The Shu army surrounded the mountains on all sides, and the troops were relatively scattered, and in order to prepare for the encirclement and reinforcements, Liu Yin almost deployed all the main forces on the battlefield in the west, and the troops besieging Sanwei Mountain were naturally weaker. Since the main force is in the west, the deployment of the Shu army to encircle the mountain is also mainly based on the southeast, north and south, and the three are missing one, and the breakthrough that no bones can choose is undoubtedly the weakest point of the Shu army's strength.

Boneless can lead the army down the Sanwei Mountain in one breath, and encountered Fu Zhao's Hubu right battalion head-on. (To be continued.) )
