Chapter 100 Dong Hou
(Thanks to 20272027, thanks to Brother Xingye for his generous support. He was in Nanjing and could only barely maintain normal updates. He could not add updates to express his gratitude...)
Seeing Zhou Jun, Shen Kun and others were not fatal. Chen Hai was like a bloody man, but his spirit was not shaken off. Zhao Ruhui breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing them like this at this moment, he was speechless and scolded:
"You bastards, you really dare to get rid of the fire!"
He took out two bottles of healing medicine from his arms and threw it over. Next, he asked Ding Shuang and other military officers who were not seriously injured to accompany him to climb the city tower to arrange defense to prevent reinforcements from raiding this side in Hechuanling.
Seeing that the Wuwei Army had higher-level generals coming out, they followed Chen Hai's advice to accept them, and even appointed them without doubt, Ding Shuang and others were at this time to calm down and began to summon the fleeing Min Yong separately to restore order in the city, and supervise the surrendered defeated soldiers and the fleeing clans in the south.
The city was not so chaotic, and the soldiers were almost confiscated. Soon, Zhang Huaiyu and Li Xianghai rushed to the south city tower surrounded by dozens of guards.
They encountered no strong obstacles along the way, and they almost took down Chishan City without blood. However, seeing the southern city tower covered with blood, as well as the broken arrows and broken blades all over the ground, it is not difficult to imagine how dangerous and tragic it was for Chen Hai and the others to guard the southern city gate for a day with just this little manpower.
"Okay! You are all the most important things in this battle!"
Zhang Huaiyu was naturally very jealous of Chen Lie, but he had to praise him on the surface, otherwise what could he do?
This battle was so terrifying to Chen Lie's prestige in the East Wing! Who would have thought that Chen Lie had such a monster, dared to use strange strategies and achieve great achievements?
As for such a nephew, the outside world regards such a nephew as a waste, only Chen Lie is able to raise him, use him, and even resist the opposition, enter him into the Chen family genealogy and accept him as a "legitimate son". It seems that this battle has nothing to do with Chen Lie himself, but it also reflects Chen Lie's ability to use people. This is the most important quality of being a coach.
Zhang Huaiyu felt bitter in his heart, and then sent several teams of elite cavalry to break out from the southern city gate where Shu passed, looking for the defeated soldiers who fled south from the two wings to expand the results of the battle as much as possible.
******************************
At this moment, as the commander of the vanguard of the Southern Expedition Army, the vanguard of Qin Muhou and the general of the Yulong Camp, Dong Shou, personally led three thousand elite yamen soldiers and cavalry to defeat a small group of deserters, and appeared in Guniugang in the northwest corner of Chishan County.
In the afternoon, several spiritual birds found a large number of defeated soldiers in Chishan County. The clan fled south was stranded. Dong Shou led three thousand elite yamen soldiers. At this moment, he entered Guniugang and was preparing to attack Chishan City directly.
Considering that the Hexiang Army may send out the most elite small combat power from Hechuanling to raid them to chase and kill the defeated vanguards to regain the low morale of the Hexiang Army after the collapse of the northern defense line, in addition to being the general of the Yulong Camp, Dong Shou, a powerful Daodan realm, personally led 3,000 elite cavalry of the yamen soldiers to fight out first. Dong Ning and more than 200 disciples of the seven peaks, the head of the commander also followed this cavalry battalion, which can be said to be the most elite of the Wuwei Army, to ensure the combat power of the 3,000 people, and was the sharpest and hardest spearhead of the Wuwei Army. The other soldiers and horses mainly killed the defeated soldiers within a depth of two or three hundred miles north and occupied the city.
At this time, a small team of cavalry rushed out of Chishan City, rode horses and rushed here, waving the unique command flag of the Yulong Camp.
More than a dozen knights ran wildly on their horses and shouted loudly to indicate their identity: "The East Wing of the Yulong Camp was temporarily compiled and the cavalry camp was held. The patrol captain Li Yulin in front of the tent sent an edict to report that our troops had seized Chishan City and captured more than 15,000 defeated soldiers and the children of the fleeing clan in the south. Please review the Protector General Dong Hou!"
Dong Shou was riding a black cunning beast. When he saw these dozens of riders coming out of Chishan City, he was stunned and asked the generals on the left and right: "When did Chen Lie send troops to the front of us?"
Dong Ning was riding a green-horned beast and following his father Dong Shou. When he thought that Chen Hai was the deputy envoy of the Yulong Camp and the nephew of Chen Lie, the Marquis of Zhaoyangting. Chen Hai suddenly came out to the mountain to train two months ago. He heard that he was also included in the East Wing of the Yulong Camp, so he didn't know if he was in Chishan City.
Because she was afraid that others would make fun of old things, Dong Ning never mentioned the "bullying" in Qiyunling in front of her father and family. But at this time she was also curious, not knowing whether Chen Hai had successfully opened the Linghai Secret Palace in the past two months, and not knowing whether he would tell the secret of shattering the Six-Armor Secret Shield with a sword in the Sutra Library.
At this time, dozens of elite cavalry were separated from the two wings, and the future people stopped them, and after checking the seal, they brought one person to them.
Dong Ning recognized that the man was Li Yulin, who was also a disciple of the Shangqi Peak, and was also working on the east wing of the Yulong Camp at this time.
"I recognize you. You are Li Xianghai's nephew," Dong Shourao looked at Li Yulin with interest. There were only more than 20 generals who entered the Mingqiao Realm. Dong Shou was naturally familiar with Li Xianghai for a long time, and also recognized Li Yulin as an outstanding child of the younger generation of the Li family. He leaned over and asked, "My mansion and the General Mansion of the Great Protector Chen Lie ordered Chen Lie to lead his troops to cover the flanks, and there was no mission to chase the enemy and kill the enemy. Why did you come here?"
Li Yulin said: "Reported to the Dong Hou, the Eastern Wing's troops were strict and the orders of the Great Protector General, strictly guarding the flanks, but preventing the enemy's surprise attacks, the Deputy Protector General discussed with the generals and specially formed a cavalry battalion to expand the reconnaissance range on the flanks, and finally found annihilated the enemy's main force in Chishan City."
Dong Shou did not believe Li Yulin's words and thought to himself that Chen Lie led the main force of the East Wing 30,000 elite troops to guard the north of Yanchuan Prefecture City. Can the reconnaissance cavalry camp on the East Wing patrol 500 miles south?
Why did there be such a large number of defeated soldiers, and the fleeing clans in the south stayed in Chishan City, and were successfully captured by Chen Lie's cavalry camp?
Dong Shou and the generals couldn't figure out what was going on, but it was easy to say anything after winning the battle. It was impossible for Chen Lie to send the reconnaissance cavalry camp too far and seize tens of thousands of people in front of them, right?
*********************************
In the early stage, the Wuwei Army only planned to advance to the Chishan City line or the mountains slightly south. For the time being, there was no intention to take the risk of launching a direct offensive against the Hechuanling line two or three hundred miles away, which had been operating for two or three hundred years.
Since the Youshou Cavalry Camp of the East Wing had occupied Chishan City, and the subsequent main infantry force advanced here southward, it would take two or three days to lead the troops to enter Chishan City first. He was also very curious that it was easy for the Youshou Cavalry Camp of the East Wing to circumnate in front of them to occupy Chishan City, but how could he capture all the 14,500-5,000 subjugation and collapse in such a precise manner?
You should know that after breaking through Yanchuan Prefecture, he personally led the three thousand most elite yamen soldiers to chase and kill and defeat the prisoners one day and one night, kill and kill more than the prisoners, and only a little more than 10,000 people!
Dong Shou even doubted whether Li Yulin and others would falsely report their military achievements.
This is normal. Those who are in high positions should not be too demanding. Afterwards, the camp will send people to count and check. If there is no record of the following, the camp will accept it in full.
At this time, the ordinary people who fled in Chishan City had already sorted out and drove them to Xicheng for temporary custody. After further sorting, they were repatriated to their hometowns. The fleeing soldiers and generals, the children of the fleeing clans in the south, private escorts and others were all concentrated as surrendered prisoners in the northeast corner of Chibei City, directly under the supervision of the elite cavalry camp in the East Wing.
Surrounded by the generals, Dong Shou climbed up to the North City Tower and looked at the crowd of dark people under the city. Although the soldiers and armor were confiscated, none of these people were old, weak, women and children mixed in to fish in the water. He knew that even if the military achievements here were a bit bluffed, they were extremely limited.
In this battle, the Dong family did not expect to completely defeat and annihilate the Hexiang Army. First, it was too late. Dong family faced serious threats in the west and north, and could not use troops in the south for a long time.
In addition, not only did the Emperor Chao Tianshu Courtyard not sit idly by, but the Musashi Army in the south of the Hexiang Army would not sit idly by, the Wuwei Army annexed the Yanchuan counties and remained silent. The most fundamental purpose of this battle was to weaken the Hexiang Army as much as possible and strengthen the Wuwei Army.
At this time, whether it is effectively annihilated the biological combat power of the Hexiang Army or capturing a large number of war surrenders, the significance is extremely important, and the later significance is even more significant.
"Okay! OK!" Seeing this scene, Dong Shou cheered repeatedly and no longer cared about the five hundred miles south of the East Wing Patrol Cavalry Camp. He was a little slanderous in his orders to him and the General's Mansion. He asked Zhang Huaiyu, Li Xianghai, and Zhao Ruhui to him and asked, "Tell me how you have made this magical achievement, don't fool me. These people were confused and forgot to continue running south when they fled to Chishan City, waiting for you to collect prisoners!"
"The last general dare not deceive Hou Dong..."
Although Zhao Ruhui is not the leader, he is the oldest. Zhang Huaiyu doesn't want to pinch his nose and praise Chen Lie's nephew's military achievements, so he lets Zhao Ruhui come forward to state what happened in Chishan City.
It is easy to say. Chen Hai was originally an inspector in front of Li Xianghai's tent. Before the war, he had already been ordered to sneak into the enemy territory to reconnaise the enemy's situation. After the outbreak of the war, the enemy sent a large number of reconnaissance cavalry to the southern foot of Yulong Mountain. Chen Hai was unable to return to the camp and chose to continue looking for fighter deep in the Chishan line. Afterwards, Chen Hai led his troops to disguise Hexiang Army messenger into Chishan City, secretly controlling Ding Shuang and other military officers guarding the city as hostages. In the name of defending the city, he blocked a large number of defeated soldiers and clan children from the south in Chishan City, until Zhang Huaiyu, Li Xianghai, and Zhao Ruhui led reinforcements to arrive...
The whole process sounds a bit dull, but Dong Shou and other generals are veterans who are good at fighting. Naturally, it is not difficult to guess that the dangers are still there, and one part of the business trip will lose all the money.
After hearing Zhao Ruhui's words, all the generals who entered Chishan City with Dong Shou felt scared. Not to mention Chen Hai, a low-level military officer who had just entered the Pi Ling Realm, even those who were strong men from the Mingqiao Realm, who led more than a hundred elites, would not dare to use such a dangerous trick lightly.
Everyone knows that those who dare to use this strategy do not rely on their high level of cultivation, but their shocking courage and extraordinary skills to control the situation after thinking about it.
