Chapter 595 Decisive Battle (6)
Zhu Jin returned to Shuai's house and suddenly felt something was wrong. After a little attention, he found that Li Jian and Li Yu were gone. He asked Yu Hou who was beside him and said, "Where have Li Dutong and Li Changzhou been?"
"Report to my grandfather, the two generals have just taken their personal soldiers to the river bank!"
"What? Riverbank?" Zhu Jin's heart immediately skipped a beat, and an unknown feeling arose. He tried his best to suppress the irritability in his chest, and ordered the Yu Hou in a calm tone: "You go to the riverbank to recruit two generals, and just say that I have something to discuss with them, so hurry up!" In the end, Zhu Jin could not control himself and emphasized again.
"Yes!" Yu Hou saluted with his hands and ran quickly towards the river bank. Zhu Jin watched Yu Hou leave and walked up in place, feeling uneasy. At this critical moment, the sudden departure of Li Yu and Li Jian was not a good sign. Since he led the army to cross the river, he has paid great attention to the relationship between Li Jian and Li Yu, fearing that internal discord will lead to unfavorable wars, and it is still acceptable. But at this critical moment, is it a mess they are going to have?
After about half a quarter of an hour, the Yu Hou rushed back, his face full of panic, and he was still ten steps away and shouted: "Honor, my husband, it's not good!"
When Zhu Jin heard the man shouting, he knew that something was wrong, so he quickly shouted: "Shut up and talk!" At this time, the war was not good, and the morale of the Huainan army was unstable. The man shouted that the man suddenly caused an uproar. Although he was immediately suppressed by the captain of Dutou, looking at the panic-looking eyes of the soldiers, he knew that it would be a matter of time before it erupted.
The Yu Hou knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly ran to Zhu Jin and lowered his voice and said, "No, when I passed by Li Jian and Li Yu were leading their personal soldiers onto the boat. It seemed that they were going to escape alone on a boat."
When Zhu Jin heard this, his eyes suddenly turned dark, and he staggered and almost fell down. The man was so scared that he quickly reached out to support Zhu Jin. While shouting in a hurry, he reached out to pinch Zhu Jin's people. Now the Huainan army is being attacked several times, Li Jian and Li Yu left their soldiers to escape. The situation was extremely bad. The only backbone was the person in front of him. If he had another chance, what else could he have to rely on to call the tens of thousands of soldiers here?
Zhu Jin reached out to block the hand that Yu Hou pinched his own people, closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then opened his eyes again. A brave and decisive light flashed in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Come here, send orders to let the three armies eat, and the whole army will go east later!"
"To the east?" The general Zuo beside him was stunned at first, and then he came over. The position of Zhenhai Army was on the east, north, and south of the Jiangnan Canal. It seemed that retreating to the west was a way to live. But if Zhu Jin directly ordered a retreat to the west, tens of thousands of troops would inevitably flee and trample on each other under the pursuit of Zhenhai Army. I am afraid that in the end, except for a small number of cavalry, most of the soldiers would be buried here. The only way to live is to launch a fierce attack on the enemy during the remaining day, severely damage the enemy, distance from the Zhenhai Army, and then throw away the baggage in the night and retreat lightly. This is the only way to live. Zhu Jin is worthy of being a famous general of Lao Yu's army. Although he encountered many changes, the formation of the army was still extremely meticulous and without any mistakes. The general Zuo on both sides saw it, and there was a little hope in his originally desperate eyes.
The central army of Zhenhai Army, the mound where the flag is located is full of joy. Not to mention the generals and subordinates who are listed on both sides, even the young soldiers who are fighting against the flag cannot hide their smiles. They all have a small plan in their hearts: they have been out for more than a month, and they have left their hometowns. Seeing that the enemy has been surrounded by three sides, victory is in front of them. The soldiers on the southern Huainan line are almost here. As long as they are defeated, the land of Jiangdong can be decided. The generals and lieutenants can be promoted and promoted, and our young soldiers can also receive some rewards for land and acres. I heard that in front of the fun hall
General Wang, who was in the left and right military wings, was just a slut before he joined the army. However, he was attracted by the king and became the adopted son of the Wang Dutong and made contributions. However, he was already extremely prominent in his early twenties. He was at least the future of the governor of a state. If we were to break the enemy, the king behind the formation would like to take a fancy to him, and he would also put him in the left and right sides of the palace for a few years. He would not only be the governor of the state, but also a county lieutenant, but also let the local eggs in the village who only know how to poke the butt of a cow, and the majesty of our family was so majestic.
At this moment, a cavalry of Qiu Xia rushed over, and the flag behind him was torn straight. The guards had long recognized him as the military envoy who conveyed military information, so they quickly made it clear. The cavalry rushed to the Tumo, jumped off the horse, rushed to Wang Foer, and whispered: "Report to the commander, the Huainan army suddenly launched a counterattack, and the offensive was extremely fierce. General Luo reported to the central army to cooperate with the attack, disperse the pressure or increase reinforcements."
When the generals heard this, they calmed down and then asked for a fight. Wang Foer seemed to have not heard it, and lowered his head and thought for a moment, before turning back to Lu Fang beside him, and asked: "King, the biggest capital in Zhu Jin's hand is the Shatuo cavalry. However, after Shi Yan died in battle, most of the cavalry were dispersed and surrounded by our army on three sides. The situation was extremely unfavorable. Now the plan is the most beneficial to him to find a way to retreat, contain the defeated soldiers, and find an opportunity to fight again. But he attacked fiercely, which was very strange."
Lu Fang smiled: "I think Zhu Jin wants to retreat overnight, so he pretends to be a fierce attack first and pretends to be a suspicious soldier."
Wang Fo'er's eyes lit up and nodded repeatedly, "What the king said is very much. There are camps to guard several miles behind our army. Even if it is unfavorable, there are camps to be used as a basis. However, the Huainan army did not. This desperate bet was not the way of the last general. It must be Zhu Jin's suspicious plan. The subordinates immediately sent reinforcements to General Luo, without giving in a single step."
Gao Fengtian heard this and interrupted with a smile: "I think it's better to let Zhu Jin think that his treacherous plan is successful than this. When he withdraws troops overnight, he will be twice the result with half the effort." At this point, he lowered his voice and thought about the plot in his heart and listened carefully with Lu and Wang. After a while, he suddenly heard Wang Foer clapping and laughing: "Judge Gao is indeed a clever plan. Even if Zhu Jin is as cunning as a ghost, he will fall into this trap."
Zhu Jin rode on the horse, not staring at the fierce battle situation in front of him, but kept looking up at the sun above his head. But the sun in the sky seemed to be nailed into the blue sky by something, and he hadn't moved west for a long time. His chest was like ten thousand ants biting it. He wanted to shoot the sun in the sky down with one arrow so that it would get dark and start retreating. The only thing that made him feel that there was still a little comfort was that after Li Jian escaped, the Jiangdong Army under his command was under his command.
Without any abnormal movement, he obeyed Zhu Jin's dispatch and command. Zhu Jin naturally did not dare to expect them to cut off the rear. He wrapped them in the middle when he withdrew his troops. The opposite Zhenhai Army may have been very slow to respond to the fierce attack of the Huainan Army because of the heavy struggle of half a day. He just fought and retreated. The previous powerful counterattack no longer existed, which made Zhu Jin's heart aroused a sense of hope - it seems that the hope of successful withdrawal of the troops was 20%.
Finally the sun set, the troops of both sides broke off contact and retreated to their camps to eat and rest. The battlefield became empty and silent. You could almost hear the sound of the seriously injured dying person. When the river wind blew, it became even more desolate, almost like a ghost crying.
There was another busy scene in the Huainan military camp: the civilians and auxiliary soldiers put the most precious and necessary parts on the ship; after feeding all the horses and livestock, they were all tied up and set off immediately to prevent the movement of the animals from setting off to attract the attention of the spies from the Zhenhai Army. After the soldiers finished their food, they immediately rested and set off at the second update; all the uncarved property and supplies that could not be taken away were discarded, and the soldiers were not allowed to carry anything except weapons and three days of dry food, and even their armor must be abandoned, and these things were not burned.
To prevent the flames from attracting the attention of Zhen Haijun, secondly, a large amount of spoils will stumbling the pursuit soldiers. After all, it is not something that all generals dare to do to prohibit the victorious soldiers from robbing spoils. It has to be admitted that Zhu Jin has huge organizational capabilities. The arduous and complicated task of withdrawing troops was completed quite beautifully. By the first update, most of the preparations had been completed. Zhu Jin then breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to eat something and take a break. He left the most difficult work of quitting the rear for himself, which required a huge amount of energy.
Zhu Jin had just sat down and ate two bites when he heard a noise from the south. He couldn't help but be furious. The most necessary factor for this kind of enemy withdrawal was to hide. Otherwise, if the enemy in front knew about it, the head would catch up with him, and immediately the entire army would be defeated. He had already repeatedly ordered the officers, but unexpectedly there would be another mistake. It seemed that he would use a few heads to warn him.
"Come here, go and see which camp is shouting randomly, beheading all those who violate the military law, and the captain of the camp..."
Speaking of this, Zhu Jin hesitated for a moment. It was indeed not a very wise decision to kill the officer at this critical moment. "Let me send my head for the time being, and then make plans after I go back. Let's take twenty whips!"
"Here!" The personal soldiers immediately left the tent. Zhu Jin took a few more bites, but the noise outside became louder and louder, as if there was still a growing momentum. Zhu Jin felt something was wrong. He was about to get up and leave the tent to see what happened, but he saw a person rushing into the tent, in a very embarrassed manner. It was the personal soldiers just now.
"Dude, my husband, the Zhenhai soldiers are fighting! They are fighting from the water!"
