Chapter 18 Chen Jun finally retreats
Just when Zhang Yunliang was about to announce his decision, another guard reported urgently, "General, Wang Duwei is back!"
As soon as this news came, the Chen army generals present all had different expressions.
There was Chen Xiang's surprise, Gao An's panic, Ji Hui's doubts, and of course Zhang Yunliang's anger.
Just as the guard stepped down, he stumbled in from outside the military tent.
While pushing away the soldiers who were about to support him, the man knelt on the ground, crying with tears on his face, "General, I'm going to be a death sentence!"
As soon as he walked into the military tent, Wang Gushan immediately knelt down to the master's seat.
Compared with the arrogant and domineering last night, he is now as down and out as a dog of a family.
"Do you still have the face to come back?" Zhang Yunliang was furious. Without thinking, he picked up the seal in front of him and smashed it over.
Seeing the big man flying towards him, Wang Gushan didn't hide and let it hit him firmly.
"you……"
When Zhang Yunliang saw Wang Gushan's appearance, he became even more angry. What do you mean? Who are you doing it for?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yunliang became even more angry. He pulled out his sword and then chopped it on Wang Gushan.
Seeing this, the few people present stepped forward and stopped Zhang Yunliang. Now is not the time for civil strife.
"General, the last general is guilty of death." Wang Gushan raised his head and said sobbingly.
Wang Gushan knew in his heart that he had indeed caused a big disaster this time, and more than a thousand soldiers were lost to him, and he could be said to be a big loss to death.
Although the Wang family is a great family member of the Chen State, I am afraid that he can't help but make such a big mess.
Even if Zhang Yunliang cut him down now, the Wang family would not say a word of complaint in front of Uncle Chen.
"General, I am not willing to die until the last time, but you must avenge your brothers!" Wang Gushan said mournfully.
Those dead Chen Zu were brothers who had followed Wang Gushan early in the morning. How could he not avenge them? He could die, but this revenge must be avenged.
Wang Gushan is still alive now, so it is all for him to avenge his dead brothers.
"Get out!" Ignore Wang Gushan's crying and Zhang Yunliang kicked him on the shoulder.
This kick made Wang Gushan lose balance and roll down the ladder outside the military tent.
After returning, Zhang Yunliang slowly settled the score with him. Seeing Wang Gushan disappearing, he thought to himself.
Before his anger was relieved, Zhang Yunliang punched the case again.
These two days are definitely the most depressing two days in his military career for him.
After Wang Gushan's incident, the troops led by Zhang Yunliang could no longer reach the designated position on time, and the strategic tasks scheduled before were almost impossible to complete.
If Zhang Yunliang chooses to continue moving forward now, then what he will face is probably the Wei army who is waiting for him. In that case, they will only die.
The military tent was dead silent again. I imagined Wang Gushan's miserable appearance, and everyone stood cautiously, afraid that it would touch Zhang Yunliang's bad head.
Zhang Yunliang walked around the coach alone, repeatedly, looking at his anxious appearance, and wondering what he was weighing.
Slowly picked up the seal thrown on the ground, Zhang Yunliang finally made up his mind about the army's next arrangement.
Back to his position, facing his back to everyone, Zhang Yunliang said sadly, "Everyone, after this battle, our army's whereabouts may have been discovered by the Wei people!"
Slowly turning back, Zhang Yunliang continued to say to the people present, "In addition to the time delayed last night, it is impossible for us to raid the Wei army's rear mission."
Zhang Yunliang's sudden words made Ji Hui and others unaware of this. Why are you talking about these things at this time?
But Zhang Yunliang's next words shocked everyone present. Zhang Yunliang ordered to his left and right, "I will order the whole army to retreat and rush back to Changping Pass overnight."
Ji Hui, Gao An and others had no idea what Zhang Yunliang was going to do.
Just one small defeat, losing a thousand people, but this can scare away more than ten thousand troops? Isn’t this a joke? Do you really think we are afraid of those Wei people?
"General, why?" Ji Hui stood up immediately, and asked Zhang Yunliang directly without caring about the rules and regulations.
As the Duke of Chen, Ji Hui's bigger task during this trip was to ensure that this army must be under the control of the office at all times. Zhang Yunliang's orders had to make him think more.
Zhang Yunliang understood Ji Hui's meaning, and he also saw everyone's doubts, and explained in a deep voice, "I will do this for the sake of the State of Chen."
Everyone did not speak, and their expressions were still full of doubts.
Zhang Yunliang continued, "My country Chen is weak and the country has few soldiers. I cannot let these ten thousand cavalrymen suffer any risks."
"No matter who wins and loses in the Qin and Wei struggles, I, the State of Chen, must have enough power to continue the country's fortune in this chaotic world." Zhang Yunliang said in a daze.
"General, don't forget to let us attack the rear of the Wei army, but Duke Qin personally asked the emperor..." Ji Hui reminded him at the right time. Now that he understood Zhang Yunliang's thoughts, he also felt that it made sense.
But how should Qin State explain?
"We just ignore the tasks given by the Qin people." Zhang Yunliang said indifferently.
In his opinion, if the Qin people dared to have bad ideas about Chen State, they would force Chen State to turn to Wei State!
Finally, Zhang Yunliang added another sentence, "If the emperor and the Qin people blame each other, I will bear it all!"
Only in this way can Zhang Yunliang ensure that everyone can let go of their worries and return with him.
"General, no!" A shrill voice suddenly came to mind outside.
Wang Gushan was like a turtle at this time, slowly climbing into the military tent again.
Compared to making money, Wang Gushan has a few more holes on his body.
"General, you can't retreat!" Wang Gushan knelt down and begged after entering the military tent.
Zhang Yunliang didn't say anything, just watched Wang Gushan's performance.
"General, my subordinates have suffered heavy casualties. Where have the brothers died? You have to avenge them!" Wang Gushan stopped crying and said with some trembling.
"Hmph! You still have the face to say, if it weren't for you, so many brothers would have died?" Zhang Yunliang looked at Wang Gushan and kept rising up in anger.
When Wang Gushan heard this, he stopped talking. Just what Zhang Yunliang said just now could make him unable to forget every day and night.
Zhang Yunliang continued, "Originally, the Central Army had prepared two lieutenants to attack those Wei people. They would pursue them and completely eliminate them."
"But because of your attack, all this was disrupted, and our army was dragged here for one night, and you lost more than a thousand brothers."
"Tell me, who is the biggest sinner? Is it you?" Zhang Yunliang pointed at Wang Gushan's nose and said angrily.
"I think, if you really want to avenge your brothers, just kill yourself first!" Zhang Yunliang said in a cold voice.
Wang Gushan was speechless and silently lowered his head. This time, he really caused a big trouble.
"Maybe if you die, you will be liberated!" Wang Gushan thought so.
"Ah!" Wang Gushan shouted to the sky, then smashed his head heavily into the ground.
With a "bang", Wang Gushan fell down and blood flowed out of his forehead.
"Save people quickly!" This was the last sound Wang Gushan heard before he was unconscious, and he heard it was Ji Hui's.
Finally, Chen Jun began to retreat in an orderly manner according to Zhang Yunliang's instructions.
