Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Three National Mourning

When conducting a drill-through battle, the generals of the Martial War need to lead the army, holding the blade as the edge, but as long as the left and right formations are rectified, they will not be disbanded or defeated by the enemy, the surrounding generals and soldiers have undergone strict training and develop the habit of close cooperation in the cruel bloody battle. Generally speaking, it is not more dangerous than the generals and soldiers.

The most dangerous thing is the formation scattered and melee.

The generals wearing excellent armor are extremely eye-catching on the battlefield and are most likely to cause siege.

Once you are alone in the siege of many enemy soldiers, no matter who is strong, you will never be able to resist the swords, halberds, spears and spears that are stabbed from all directions, and your physical strength will be exhausted in a very short time.

Chen Zhenye did not know the essence of the tactics, nor did he know the danger of fighting with the young man, but he still resolutely led more than a hundred elite troops to emerge from the front as soon as possible, with the purpose of delaying the speed of the enemy's cavalry and gaining more precious time for the main forces of Qi Zishan to assemble.

Chen Zhenye's troops were quickly swallowed up by the enemy. Not to mention Chen Zhenye's heroic death, more than 100 Chu Shan Jianrui's last survival from the battlefield, and each of them was carrying many swords and arrows.

Yuan Lei led his troops to the battlefield to slow down, and the casualties were much better, but more than 40% of them died in battle and were severely disabled.

Yuan Lei himself has also suffered many severe injuries.

The situation was urgent at that time, and the intercepting troops were mainly captured by the rebel army and the Tianxiong army. They lacked the experience of using loose walks to fight against the cavalry. Xu Wuli and Chen Zixiao could only lead the way and fight with the enemy in a melee, and were also injured in many places.

Wang Hua led the elite guards to follow Xu Wuli closely, while Chen Zixiao was left and right, but he was killed in a fierce battle.

The prisoners of Tianxiong Army showed off their extraordinary decisive fighting spirit and immediately rushed into the cavalry formation with their weak bodies without hesitation. More than 600 soldiers were almost destroyed. This was how they bought valuable time for Yang Qiye's army and several rebel armies to form a close infantry formation and curb the attacks of the captive soldiers.

For Xu Wuji, Chen Zixiao, Yuan Lei and others to recover from their injuries, they left Wang Ju in the afternoon to take charge of the Han Army camp in Yunzhou. Xu Huai personally rushed to Qizishan to deploy subsequent defenses.

Of course, Xu Huai had no intention of gathering troops to attack Xinzhou.

Even if Xin Dai and other cities are attacked, it will not make much sense, but it will increase more unpredictable casualties.

Xu Huai was wrapped in a cloak, sitting on a cliff on the edge of the hill, looking at the vast land covered by ice and snow. The valley to the east continued to drive more than a thousand hard labor rescued from the Han army camp in Yunzhou to build temporary fortifications. He was collecting firewood to prepare for cremation and bravely killing soldiers, and then bringing their ashes back to Chu Mountain for burial.

Xiao Yanhan sat next to Xu Huai with her knees in her arms. At this time, a low and hoarse chant came from the deep sparse forest behind her. She couldn't listen to it carefully and asked Xu Huai: "What are you singing?"

Xu Huaiqing listened for a while, took the bag and the sheathed together with the rhythm, gently tapped the round shield placed in front of his knees, and recited it to Xiao Yanhan:

"...... I was fucked by Wu Ge and was armoured by rhinoceros armor, and the chariot was staggered by short soldiers; flags covered the sun, the enemy was like clouds, arrows fell, and soldiers fought for the first place; I was leaning on the formation and strolling my way, and the left was silenced and the right blade was injured; haze two wheels and four horses, supporting jade slings and hitting drums; the sky was quarreled with power and spirit, and killing them all, and abandoning the original turf; I didn't go in and went back, and the plain suddenly went far; I carried a long sword and held the Qin bow, but my head was separated, and my heart was not punished; I was brave and strong, and I couldn't be pushed; I died, and my soul was strong and powerful, and I was dead, and my soul was a ghost hero..."

After a while, Yan Xiaoyi dragged a cypress tree with branches out of the forest.

This cypress tree had long since withered, and there were still burning marks of lightning struck by the tree.

Niu Er looked over curiously and asked, "What are you doing to drag this dead tree out of the forest alone?"

When Yan Xiaoyi saw Xu Huai, Xiao Yanhan also looked over and threw the dead tree to the ground, saying, "I have a close relationship with Zhen Er, and I followed Wang Kong at the beginning. Wang Kong was exiled to Lanzhou. Zhen Er was grateful for his kindness, and was worried that his love and loyalty would be persecuted by a traitor. He invited me to come to Lanzhou with the opportunity to meet the military marquis and follow the tent. He often told me that life and death are common, and he has no marriage. If he can be buried next to his parents' grave, it would be a blessing. I have to fulfill this wish for him! However, Zhen Er is from Qizhou, and I don't know when he can wait until the mountain Taiping to send Zhen Er's ashes back to Qizhou for burial!"

It is said that the bones of the sacrificed soldiers should be brought back to Chushan for burial as much as possible, but so many generals and soldiers were sacrificed in one battle, it is impossible to cremate one by one. Only dozens of corpses can be cremated in the same batch, which will inevitably be confused.

Yan Xiaoyi went to the forest to find a cypress tree that was struck by lightning. He wanted to cremate the body of Chen Zhenye alone, and then bring his bones back to Chushan...

…………

Moli suddenly resisted the pain from the wound and stood on the city tower for a long time without moving.

Xinzhou City is more than fifty miles away from Qizi Mountain, and he can't even see a single hair in the distance.

Haishan climbed the city tower and said, "The southern thieves have no intention of sending troops north. It seems that there is no need to worry too much in Xinzhou!"

"Xu Huai's dog thieves raided Taiyuan, and from beginning to end they were all receiving Taiyuan soldiers and civilians to Guanshan. Of course, he would not have to work hard to attack Xinzhou - if he attacked Xinzhou, he could still hold on and leave?" Mo Li suddenly said with hatred, "Yin Chao's dog thing is actually afraid of DDT. He is really inferior to Cao Shixiong!"

In the early morning, they had a small group of people interspersed near the Han army camp in Yunzhou. Although it was not large enough to interfere with the fierce wars that occurred in the Han army camp in Yunzhou, it was enough to make Moli suddenly understand most of the details of the night battle last year.

Li Chulin's troops were in charge of the Han army camp in Yunzhou, and the fierce resistance was beyond Molihu's expectations, so he felt particularly regretful and regretful.

If he had not done any rest when he arrived at Liulingou Village yesterday, he would have led more than a thousand cavalry directly south regardless of his own efforts, and the casualties might have been even worse, but the Han army camp in Yunzhou might be able to be saved.

Yin Chao's heavy troops were close to the Han army camp in Yunzhou, but he was afraid of the DDT fight and failed to reinforce the Han army camp in Yunzhou, which still made him hate him.

If Yin Chao could send troops from the two wings of Taiyuan City to rescue the Han army camp in Yunzhou more resolutely, the situation of the battle last night would inevitably change, rather than asking Xu Huai to completely open the passage to respond to Taiyuan's military and civilians retreat into Lingjinggou Canyon.

Even if they gathered all the troops in Xin Dai and other places, there would not be more than 2,000 remaining soldiers, and it would be impossible for them to pose any threat to Xu Huai from the flanks.

Although he didn't have to escape from Xinzhou in a panic, he could only watch 100,000 Taiyuan soldiers and civilians flee into the Luliang Mountains in Xinzhou with a large amount of food and fodder seized from the Han army camp in Yunzhou.

And he could also foresee that these 100,000 soldiers and civilians would cause them great trouble in the future.

Chihu rose on the grassland and fought eastward for more than 40 years. He encountered such cities and tribes that were exhausted from arrows and food, and would never surrender even if he was injured or killed.

Whenever such a city is captured, tribes and Red Hu soldiers will slaughter and exterminate it.

On the one hand, it was to shock other forces that dared to resist Chihu, and on the other hand, the Chihu people also knew deeply that these people could not surrender Chihu and give them a chance to breathe. The resistance they gathered was much more astonishing than ordinary hostile forces.

Therefore, we must also cut off the weeds and remove any grass.

Moli didn't lead the troops for a long time, and he didn't have much deeper feelings about this.

The interception they encountered at Qizi Mountain last night was not the main force of Chushan's troops.

From the array, armor, weapons and the combat power displayed by individual soldiers, Mo Li was able to determine that these soldiers should be the soldiers summoned by Xu Huai from the local resistance forces after entering Lanzhou or Taiyuan. They were naturally far from elite. However, the fighting spirit of continuing and sacrificing his life still shocked him at this moment.

Tens of thousands of Taiyuan soldiers and civilians were trapped in the city and refused to surrender for a year. Moli couldn't help but think about how many decisive men would be here, and how many red-guard men would hate the battlefield in the future.

"If Marshal Mu Chi can listen to what you said, raise the remaining troops and horses, and go south through Yanmen Pass with all his might, he will definitely be able to kill these southern thieves without a place to be buried!"

At this time, Haishan had heard that when the Marshal's Mansion first knew that the Chushan cavalry was intending to attack Taiyuan, Moli had advocated gathering troops left behind in Datong to go south to reinforce Taiyuan, but in the end, he rejected it for the Deputy Marshal Na Muchi, who was in charge of the Marshal's Mansion.

Haishan felt very sorry for not being able to break through the interception of Shannan Army last night. He couldn't help but think that Moli suddenly doubled the cavalry that led the south to double, and the situation might be different.

"Maybe,"

Moli suddenly said that he had no regrets in his heart, that was deceiving himself, but he carefully sorted out his thoughts, shook his head and said,

"As for the situation at that time, the marshal's decision was not at fault. We always need to make decisions based on the confirmed news, not on the basis of speculation. Although this cannot completely avoid bad results, or even completely avoid traps set by the enemy, at least the worst results can be avoided. Although Xu Huai is cunning, he is definitely an enemy worthy of our attention. If we really want to carry Datong left-behind troops to go south, how can we be sure that he will not gather the Chushan cavalry to ambush us at night? He must have been preparing for the raid on Taiyuan for a long time, and it is impossible not to pay close attention to the movements of Datong left-behind troops at any time..."
