Stepping into the city, Yuan Ye was about to run towards the barracks, and in a blink of an eye, he felt that his body was being pulled, and a scolding sounded in his ears. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Don't you kid know that it's an emergency now, and you still leave the camp without permission?" Not far away, his company commander was looking angry.

Behind the company commander, dozens of people from that company were gathering from a distance, their expressions were dazed and ignorant, and they didn't seem to know what was happening now.

Yuan Ye didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly apologized: "Didn't I go to see my partners." So I came back a little late. As he spoke, he had already joined the army, and followed the troops into the distance with his head held high.

"That's good, you keep up, you can't get lost again. ”

raised his foot and kicked Yuan Ye's ass a few times, and the company commander immediately led the group towards the distance.

"Looking at the way they look, is something really wrong?"

Looking at the mighty soldiers hurrying down the street, the busy people felt uneasy, although they did not understand what was happening, but they also knew that such a strange situation was rare.

The last time was last winter, and the city of Taiyuan was almost taken by the Mongols.

Yuan Ye and those soldiers were also at a loss, but under the deterrence of military discipline and the reprimand of the rank commanders, they could only follow the instructions before coming to the Faxiang Temple Square, one by one, they stood still in their own positions, looking at the lord who had already come here on the stage.

Before this Faxiang Temple, an altar about three zhang high had already been erected, and the three animals on the altar were ready, waiting for the sacrifice to begin. Under the altar, where everyone's eyes were looking, Xiao Feng was standing proudly, and it was Xiao Yue and Xiao Xing on both sides of the attendants, and a column of members of the Standing Committee of the Chinese Sect and the staff department and others were also on both sides, and the faces of the people seemed to be covered with a layer of dark clouds, and they looked extremely dark.

He thought to himself: "Could it be that it is really as Shiwa and the others said, will they retreat from this Taiyuan Mansion?"

All around, the soldiers closed their lips tightly, their eyes were like torches, and they raised their heads to look at all this, and for a time the whole square was silent, only the sound of the whirring wind remained, and even Nazhi seemed to be frightened by this momentum and did not dare to scream.

"Rank!"

Walking forward slowly, Xiao Feng looked down at the people below, and all the black pressure raised his head, looking straight at himself.

At this moment, Xiao Feng felt that her shoulders seemed to be carrying Mount Tai and Sumeru, and her footsteps did not feel heavy, and her footsteps moved lightly on the altar, and the wooden planks creaked, which made her feel that she would step into the air if she was not careful, and her movements were inevitably much slower when she thought of this, but her steps were still firm.

When he walked to the altar, Xiao Feng glanced at the sergeant in front of him, and said in a loud voice: "You are the soldiers of my Red Phoenix Army. Whether it is in Qinzhou, or in Yushe, or in Taiyuan, your strength, your faith, and your will have been thoroughly displayed, so that those Mongolian Tartars who once stood high above their heads know the blood of our Han people. Tell them that we will not give in, we will not give up, and that every battle will be reborn until they are defeated once and for all. I'm glad about that. Because it is because of you that we are able to stand here and be able to say what we say and do what we do, without having to be different for any unwarranted reason. ”

The clear voice spread throughout the square, and immediately brought tears to the eyes of the soldiers who stood on their feet.

In the eyes of others, they may be bandits who kill people, executioners who destroy entire families, bloodsuckers who destroy families and clans, and the object of hatred by everyone!

But here, as long as you abide by the military regulations of the Red Phoenix Army and resolutely fulfill the tasks given by the commander, then you can live as the same person, and you can feel the respect and heartfelt praise from your own lord and the people who are protected.

Death for a confidant!

Although they are just rural villagers and foolish people, they really feel the value of their existence at this moment.

"But!"

The voice gradually carried sadness, Xiao Feng's voice was a little hesitant, and his originally bright and moving face couldn't help but be a little sad: "Although after several battles. However, the Tartars are still powerful, and they have now entered Taiyuan with a three-way army, in order to completely exterminate us. A total of 90,000 horses, far more than our troops. ”

When they heard this, the soldiers were immediately stunned.

Ninety thousand soldiers?

Since they occupied Taiyuan City, they have done everything possible to recruit men and horses and make weapons, and there are only 11,000 soldiers and horses in this Taiyuan City at present. Even though they are equipped with a captives, tiger squat cannons, and guns, it will be very difficult to defeat the opponent.

After all, the other party can also be equipped with firearms, and his subordinates are also elite in a hundred battles, and the generals are even more experienced in warfare, how could they be defeated so easily?

Expected here, the sergeant was whispering and discussing in a low voice.

"Is this true? 50,000 troops are enough for us, if it is 90,000 troops, how can we fight?"

"And Zhang Rou and Li Minghao are also first-class immortals. If the two of them join hands with Shi Tianze, what will we do?"

"In that case, should we fight with them?

Xiao Feng was not angry when she heard these cold words, she had already expected these words, she just took a deep breath and mentioned Zhenyuan, and the sound sounded like Hong Zhong Dalu suddenly sounded in everyone's ears: "So I discussed it with the ranking staff and prepared to withdraw the army." Retreat from within the city of Taiyuan to avoid being encircled and suppressed on three sides. ”

"Retreat!

Hearing this, Yuan Ye was immediately blindfolded, although he had heard what others said, but after all, it was not what he said, so he still had some expectations, but now that he really mentioned this matter, he immediately felt extremely troubled, and he couldn't figure out the current situation.

And those soldiers were all full of surprise, and looking at the slightly depressed figure, they immediately became excited: "We are willing to swear to follow the lord to the death, and only beg the lord to take back his life." ”

This Taiyuan city was taken by them with great difficulty, and now how can they easily abandon it and abandon it to the barbarians?

"No, we must withdraw!"

Teeth biting her lips and teeth, and dripping blood in her palms, although Xiao Feng was helpless, she was unwilling to throw this easy-to-recapture city to the other party, but the situation was urgent, if she didn't retreat in time, then when the other party was encircled, the Chifeng army really had no reason to survive.

Shocked by these words, those soldiers felt a chill all over their bodies, and their hearts twitched.

It's just that this heart-wrenching pain, but they are not willing to accept it at all: "If the lord wishes, we are willing to die on the battlefield." However, if this thousand-year-old dragon city is returned to the hands of the Tartars, how can it be recaptured again in the future? and what should the people of this city do?"

"I don't know how to live, how can I die? If you die out, I will be alone, how can I hold on? The withdrawal of the army has been decided, and if there are those who resist, they will be expelled from the Red Phoenix Army. ”

The wind howled, but it did not hide Xiao Feng's mournful voice, she also wanted to protect this dragon city, but the strength was not enough, if she was forced to stay here, there would be no life at all, it was precisely because of this that she insisted on going her own way, intending to make the entire army withdraw from Taiyuan, so as to avoid falling into the situation of the other party's encirclement.

Standing on the side, Zhao Zhi finally spoke: "Rank, I also know that you are worried." Therefore, I had already drawn up a plan, first the first brigade and the second brigade would go forward to contain the enemy's main force, and then the third brigade would protect the people in the city and evacuate here. Moreover, on the side of the Southern Dynasty, Mr. Yuwen has already contacted the other party, and he only needs to send the people to the territory, and they will naturally accept it. ”

After all, their Red Phoenix Army was not cruel, and it was absolutely impossible for the people in Taiyuan City to become Tartar blades, so they set up such a strategy to ensure that the people in the entire territory left safely.

For those who do not want to leave, they will also give them enough food to ensure their survival.

Seeing that Zhao Zhi had already stood up, the rest of the people came out and began to persuade one by one, which convinced the soldiers in this square and began to prepare for the withdrawal of the army.

The plan was set, and the entire Red Phoenix Army immediately began to operate. A total of 7,000 men of the 1st Brigade and the 3rd Brigade stationed in Taiyuan City began to move northward, buying time for the 3,000 people of the 4th Brigade with a feint attack strategy and escorting hundreds of thousands of people in the city to evacuate, while the 5,000 soldiers and horses of the 5th Brigade led by Qiu Lie and Jin Meng in Fanzhou also began to move westward, preparing to block the 20,000 cavalry under Li Minghao in Hengshan, so as not to threaten the evacuated masses. The 2nd Brigade led by Wang Yunde, with a total of 4,000 people, also began to hold on to Pingyang Mansion so as not to be deceived into the territory by that Zhang Rou and ruin the whole plan.

At this point, a great war began throughout the Central Plains.

............

"Tell my uncle that the Red Phoenix Army is currently heading towards Xinzhou, and according to the report of the spies, there are at least about 7,000 people. Located in Xinzhou, Shi Ji was kneeling on one knee and reporting to his uncle.

When Shi Tianze heard this, he immediately laughed: "Oh? It seems that the Red Phoenix Army is really as we expected, does it want to withdraw?"

"Withdrawing the army? Even if it is a withdrawal of the army, why did the Chifeng Army move north?" Shi Ji was puzzled when he heard it.

Shi Tianze laughed loudly: "Naturally, it is to buy time for the people in the city to evacuate. After all, the population of Taiyuan City is as high as 100,000, how can it be completely evacuated in a short period of time? If we want to ensure that those people are safe and sound, then the Red Phoenix Army will definitely move its troops north to contain us here in order to gain time. Otherwise, she should have led all the soldiers and horses into battle, not just seven thousand. ”

"If that's the case, isn't this our chance?" Shi Ji was immediately overjoyed when he heard this.

Since his brother Shi Quan died in the hands of the Red Phoenix Army, he hated the Red Phoenix Army to the core, but it was a pity that after the Red Phoenix Army perfected the fortress defense line, it was very difficult to break through the defense line and invade the city.

When Shi Tianze heard the news, he was also happy that his plan was successful, and said: "Even so. But the Red Phoenix Army is united, and it is really a heroic division, and it is not possible to win quickly in a short time. "He has always acted cautiously, and naturally knows that in the face of an opponent like the Red Phoenix Army, he must not expect a quick victory in a short period of time, and only by exhausting the army can he dissipate his fighting spirit and completely annihilate it.

"Give me orders. All the soldiers immediately gathered together, followed me out from Chitangguan Town, and dispatched from the front to contain the main force of the opponent, so that they did not dare to go east. Ling Guanzhou Shi Hui led his troops and horses south along the Fenshui River to threaten the opponent's flank. Let Shouyang Zhang Dehui's salt invade Yuci through the water, cut off its connection with Luzhou, and if there is an opportunity, it can invade its heart and destroy its roots. Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand?"

With a loud shout, Shi Tianze had already straightened his back, and his tiger eyes swept across the soldiers, making these Gu people tremble and dare not have the slightest question.

After receiving the order, the hundred-battled lion that rampaged the Northland also officially set out, just as it had done before, to smash all the armies, rebels, and all living things that dared to resist, leaving no trace.

............

Dust and sand are flying, winds are raging, and a blazing sun in the sky releases a scorching heat that scorches everything in the world.

In the face of this scorching summer, the green grass on the ground has no life, and the occasional wave of horses' hooves will trample it into a touch of green juice, and more powerful cannonballs will fly, destroying the huge pine tree with the thickness of the hug, leaving only half of the charred stump.

Scattered all over the hills, there were large expanses of blood, and countless wrecks and severed limbs.

"Immediately build fortifications around the perimeter and raise a hot air balloon. ”

Reined in the war horses under him, and shouted at the people under his command, a pair of sharp eyes scanned the surroundings to make sure that the Mongolian army would not suddenly appear.

Since the whole battle strategy was determined, he began to be responsible for patrolling the army and looking for suitable reconnaissance sites, which is why he led his men to storm the high ground in front of him, and met a hundred household chiefs patrolling here, so there was a fight.

The Red Phoenix Army, which was generally equipped with guns and tiger squat guns, established a basic staff system, and had basic training for low-level officers, easily wiped out the squad in front of them.

It's just that they all encountered the opponent's reconnaissance troops here, so it can be seen that they are afraid that Shi Tianze's main force is nearby.

Knowing this, Cheng Feng did not dare to hesitate, and immediately ordered his men to take out the sewn hot air balloon and set it up with a wooden frame.

Several stoves had already been lit, and the heated air was channeled through copper pipes into the airbags sewn from silk and sealed with tung oil, causing them to gradually bulge, and as the heat of the stoves gradually increased, the airbags had already suspended after about half an hour, pulling the hanging basket below towards the sky to a height of about ten feet, but the rope hanging from the hanging basket held it together with the mountain rock, making it impossible to escape.

"Good. Now tell me what the information about the enemy army?" Cheng Feng looked at the rising hot air balloon before he was relieved.

As long as this hot air balloon is suspended in the air, all the movements of the opponent are all under the control of the Red Phoenix Army, and unnecessary sacrifices can be avoided. (To be continued.) )
