Volume 5 War and Peace Chapter 16 Stilwell is in trouble

Several military orders were passed, and Hong Lie's army galloped to the enemy to attack the Qin Yiwu cavalry who was attacking the central army. Xie Zhide rushed 5,000 troops to the Right Army, hoping to stop the decline. Whether he could succeed was related to the success or failure of this battle. On the front battlefield, Hong Lie's army fought very tenaciously with the geographical conditions, but this did not ensure that the balance of victory was tilted towards the Hong Lie Empire. There were too many uncertain factors. No one expected that Shi Dong's army would lose its chain at the beginning of the war, so war was not a game - in the game, the army did not say that the army was disintegrated. Even the weakest combat power would fight to the end. However, retreating, escaping, and non-combat reductions in real wars are inevitable.

Xie Zhide's 5,000 troops acted as a military policeman, and went back to the rear of the Right Army to collect Shi Dong's remnants, integrate, and prepare to form a new line of defense, but the results were very little, and the price of the horse was paid, and the military situation was not optimistic.

Shi Cundao still had no expression on his face, and finally said lightly: "It seems that the retreat plan is going to be advanced."

I asked, "Where are we going?"

Shi Cundao said: "Behind us are Li Xinfu Sanzhou. I have already arranged a backup plan, but I didn't expect it to be implemented so early. Shi Dong, Shi Dong, you are so disappointed!"

I said, "What if we retreat, Heigis chases us and bites us?"

Shi Cundao said: "Your grandpa, I have fought for a lifetime, and I haven't even had this ability to be a marshal?" He reached out and called a messenger and said, "Import Puqixiong and make him ready."

I became more and more curious and said, "What preparation?"

Shi Cundao said: "I have already asked Puqixiong to set up an ambush and cover our military vehicles to retreat 10 miles away."

I broke the casserole and asked: "What ambush?"

Shi Cundao smiled slightly and said, "You will know then."

I curled my lips, and I still have the intention to keep it in a silence after all...

Shi Cundao ordered arrows to be frequently passed, asking the two infantry divisions who had been responsible for the side to go to reinforce Shi Dong, and then said: "I ordered the entire army to retreat by alternating method. After 10 miles, the Right Army and the Pioneer Army Lizhou, the Left Army Fuzhou, and the Central Army Xinzhou, entered the city in this order."

The commander sent out a signal, and the horn sounded in the army. This time, it was different from the assembly call. The sound of the trumpet was three long and two short. When Hong Liejun heard the trumpet, the soldiers began to clean up the camp. Then the rear troops turned around and turned into a vanguard and slowly retreated towards their own country. However, they were not in a hurry to rush, but they regained their positions two miles away. At this time, the front troops had just retreated, followed by countless Heigis pursuers. The original rear troops opened a gap to let their people pass, and then closed the gap.

The retreating soldiers were ready, and the retreating soldiers were also re-arranged several miles away. The rear army fought with the enemy for a while and quickly hid in the cover of friendly troops. In this way, the Hong Lie army retreated alternately. Every time they landed, it was equivalent to waiting for them to work hard. Heijis rushed to the front of the soldiers after many fierce battles, and it became increasingly difficult to break through the defense line. Hong Lie army was so organized that it was not like a defeated army at all. This was probably what Shi Cundao said about alternation.

I saw that Hong Liejun was skillful in the formation and cooperated with the perfect match. I thought that there were not many exercises in normal times. This also reflected from the side that Shi Cundao had actually been prepared. It seems that in his strategic thinking, retreating is an indispensable part, which means that he did not intend to fight against the enemy from the beginning. After arranging the retreat, Shi Cundao went on horseback and said, "Wuron, please go with me."

Just as I was about to get on the horse, a soldier covered in blood rushed towards us. His helmet had been lost, his arms and thighs were severely damaged, and he couldn't help but shout, "I want to see the commander!"

Seeing that this man was coming strangely, Shi Cundao's personal soldiers stepped forward and stopped him outside. The man raised one arm and leaned forward and said, "Marson, I am General Stilwell's escort. I have urgent military information to report to you!"

Shi Cundao signaled his personal soldiers to put him in, frowned and said, "What military information do you have?"

The man fell off his horse with a thud, climbed a few steps to come to Shi Cundao's horse, raised his head and cried in tears, "Marson, the major general is in trouble, please send someone to save him."

Shi Cundao said: "What's going on?"

"Just just now, the right-road army was defeated, and only the major general fought to the death, which led to the encirclement now, and the brothers were almost unable to support it."

Shi Cundao said: "Stilwell served in the Pioneer Army, why did he run to the Right Army?"

The man gasped and said, "I originally followed the Major General under General Schi's command to block the enemy head-on. The Major General heard that the right-wing army was not in good condition and then took us to support him. The Pioneer Battalion Flying Tigers were also on the victory of the two teams, with more than 8,000 people, and now they are trapped in the chaos!"

Shi Cundao said with a stern face: "Stillway only has more than 3,000 generals, how can he have the right to mobilize other troops?"

The man was stunned and said, "Everyone saw that the major general was brave in fighting and they all followed him voluntarily."

Shi Cundao snorted: "It's clear that he wants to show off." When he said this, everyone actually understood that Stilwell had always been eager to make contributions. Seeing this opportunity, he must have encouraged others to take risks with him. Some generals in Hong Lie's army knew that he was the marshal's grandson, so they were willing to support his stinky feet.

Shi Cundao asked his personal soldiers who reported the news: "Stilwell is in trouble, why don't you ask for help from General Fuyuan?"

When the personal soldier heard this, he immediately exclaimed a heartbroken voice: "General Shi Chi heard that the major general was surrounded, and only said that there were no soldiers in the camp to be sent. His subordinates begged hard, but he scolded him a few words."

Shi Cundao said: "Schi finally knows the overall situation, he did it right!"

When the personal soldier heard that it was not a topic, he rushed forward and hugged Shi Cundao's leg and said, "Marson, the Major General is your grandson, you can't stand it and refuse to save him!"

Shi Cundao's face changed slightly, and he broke away from his hands and said, "I have ordered the entire army to retreat. Now the main force is on the way back to the city. Stilwell is so happy that he is in danger. At this time, anyone who saves him is equivalent to dying. If you are me, should you let that general go?"

The personal soldier was stunned for a moment and said, "Then please send 10,000 elite soldiers to my subordinates, and I will go and save people."

Shi Cundao's face turned dark and said, "Nonsense! I lost ten thousand soldiers to save a person. Do you think I am as confused as you? Besides, the army is retreating alternately. Once the troops are drawn, it will destroy the formation. I have no soldiers to send you."

"What about 5,000?"

"Nothing! Is this a bargaining thing?"

The personal soldier cried again when he heard this. He knew that this was dangerous, so he begged with Shi Cundao's intention to care about his flesh and blood. However, he obviously did not understand Shi Cundao's character. If another general fell into Shi Cundao, he might be able to find a way to save him, but this man was his grandson, and he would never let the soldiers mistakenly think that he was pretending to be a public service.

A trace of despair flashed in the eyes of the soldier. He looked at everyone around Shi Cundao involuntarily, as if he still hoped to find the last savior, but now the Shi family who could speak for him were far away several miles away. I was the only one. As Stilwell's personal soldier, he knew that we had always been in a disagreement and almost became hostile, so he hesitated for a moment and finally did not speak. He suddenly got up from the ground, wiped his tears and said, "Okay, then I'll die with the Major General." As he said that, he thrust his wounded arm and walked towards the war horse.

"Forget it, you can't get to your general when you go back now and you have to die in the chaos." I said.

The personal soldier thrust his neck and said, "It's better to die than to live a life of silence!"

I whispered to Zhang Shilei: "Stop him."

"This..." Zhang Shilei hesitated for a moment, as if he was quite unbearable. He was similar to this personal soldier. At this moment, he admired the other party's loyalty and courage. As long as Stilwell died, this person would definitely repay him with death, so he did not want to stop him. But in full view of everyone, it was not easy to openly violate my orders, so he had to hold the man's hand and said, "Brother, you can rest first."

The personal soldier was furious and said, "Why, don't you even die?"

"You are more useful than you are dead." As I said that, I turned around and looked at Shi Cundao with a smile, and called out, "Grandpa."

Shi Cundao looked at me, and a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes, and there was also some contradiction. I jumped out at this time. No matter how others think about Shi Cundao, he must know my purpose. There is still a tacit understanding between the Shi family.

Stilwell is his grandson. At this moment, the most worrying thing in the world is probably to be a grandfather. However, Stilwell is in a state of dying. As a father and grandfather, Stilwell and Shi Cundao must have wished to be in a different place with him, but they cannot send troops. It will take more lives and may not succeed. Stilwell and Shi Cundao dare not take the big fuss in the world. But I am different. Yu Gong I am the sword god in Hong Lie's army, Yu Private I am Stilwell's younger brother. Not only will I save him the highest success rate, but others can't say anything. So Shi Cundao's eyes lit up, but the worries and hesitation are also real. The danger of this trip can be imagined. Yu Gong I Private I am the sword god in Hong Lie's army, and Yu Private I am Stilwell's younger brother. Not only will I save him the highest success rate, but others can't say anything. So Shi Cundao's eyes lit up, but the worries and hesitation are also real. You can imagine the danger of this trip. Yu Gong I Private I and Shi Cundao and Hong Lie's army cannot bear this risk.

I smiled at Shi Cundao and said, "I'll go."

Shi Cundao said: "You and Diwei..."

I waved my hand and said, "No, Stilwell is my brother."

Shi Cundao nodded with relief, then whispered: "But if you go, I can't send troops to you."

"This is OK, I have my own way."

At this time, the Stilwell's personal soldier understood my feelings, pierced in front of me, and said in tears: "I will be a cow and a horse for you in my next life!"

I helped him up and said, "You will be responsible for guiding me later."

Seeing this, Zhang Shilei and others hugged each other and said anxiously: "Fifth Young Master, you can't take us this time!"

To be honest, I really don’t want to take them, but it seems that it’s not possible. My sword energy has retreated. I want to take a wounded soldier to save people among millions of troops, and I have to take care of someone. I stood among the crowd and said solemnly: “Brothers, this trip will last forever…”

Zhang Shilei laughed and said, "Fifth Young Master, since you treat us as brothers, then let's talk in your words, let's not talk nonsense!"

I also smiled, flew onto an oath, waved my hand and said, "Let's go!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to ***(***.***) to vote for recommendations. ***, your support is my greatest motivation.)
