Chapter 1233 Back and forth

On the side of the Qin army, all the soldiers followed the commander without any dispersion.

The 120,000-strong army was active on the right side of the Baisha River. There were no camps. They rested wherever they went. After resting, they continued on their way. It seemed that they were trying to get rid of the pursuers behind them, but Su Yi was not in any panic.

Look.

A few days later, various units of the Ling Army arrived at the corresponding locations in accordance with the combat instructions.

In the commander's tent, Huang Zu was looking at the military map. After a moment, he shouted directly: "The messenger!"

"exist!"

"Record the commander's military orders."

"yes!"

Huang Zu drew out his sword and started pointing at the map:

"Order Liao Yaoguang's troops to take the lead in crossing the Baisha River and march sixty miles east to the right wing of the Qin army to build a barrier."

"Order Wu Xiangming's troops to cross the river and advance northward."

"Order Yin Dian's troops to make a detour to the northeast and block the Qin army from continuing its way north."

"Order Zhou Jin's troops to build a defense line along the east bank of Baisha River."

Generally speaking, the Ling Army was still the same as before. It was impossible to surround the Qin Army in a dead end and build defense lines on all sides. If Huang Zu wanted to complete the encirclement deployment, he had to follow Su Yi across the river.

The situation on the battlefield has changed again. From the map, if the Qin Army is compared to a point, this point is slowly moving upward to the east of the Baisha River. The various encirclement and suppression arrows of the Ling Army are gradually crossing the river and forming

The overall circle quickly shrinks toward the center.

But how could Su Yi allow his encirclement to be completed? He made a decisive turn from heading north to attacking southwest, preparing to complete his second breakthrough across the river.

The first time, he crossed from left to right, that is, to the east. This time, he crossed to the west, which is equivalent to fighting back to the Jingyang area.

The strategic significance of this is mainly to involve Huang Zu's 400,000-strong army, so that all the spiritual troops have to follow him to prepare for the subsequent plan.

A few days later, Zhou entered the ministry.

Huang Zu's deployment this time was for him to deploy defenses along the east coast, which was equivalent to peripheral support.

After the last encounter, Zhou Jin still has lingering fears, but he is quite satisfied with receiving this task this time, because in his opinion, after Su Yi crosses the Baisha River eastward, the most likely possibility is to go south to find King Qin

The main force, now heading north, can only want to break through from other places. There is absolutely no danger here.

But no matter what, he never imagined that Su Yi actually killed a carbine.

The camp of the Spirit Army is still being set up here, and soldiers can be seen everywhere carrying wood and other things.

In the simple camp, Zhou Jin was drinking. He couldn't help but sigh: "Hurry up and encircle and suppress Su Yi. If Su Yi is not eliminated, our army will be restless."

"The general is right." The young general next to him said: "Now, Su Yi is heading north and there is no way out. Our army's encirclement and suppression troops are advancing from all directions. It won't take long for the war to be decided."

"I hope so. Anyway, we can just stay here and wait for news." Zhou Jin felt relaxed.

But he didn't want to run into Su Yi, but God didn't want him to.

It seems that he was quite unlucky. Just as he was about to pick up the wine bowl and take another swig, a soldier ran in in a panic. Before he arrived, he screamed:

"No, General! The Qin army is coming to kill you!"

"What!?" Zhou Jin stood up abruptly, not caring about drinking.

"Qin...Qin's army is coming to kill!" the soldier repeated in a trembling voice.

Oops! When Zhou Jin heard this, he screamed, and his first reaction was to panic: "Get out! Get out quickly!"

"General." The young general reminded this time: "Shuai Huang ordered our troops to be stationed on the east coast. If we just withdraw like this, it will be hard to explain."

Of course, an encounter and the loss of a defensive line cannot be compared.

But now Zhou Jin has been afraid of being beaten for a long time. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Can you beat Su Yi's main force? If you don't retreat, not only will the defense line be lost, but our entire army will also be annihilated!"

"This..." The young general didn't know what to say.

"Oops! Withdraw! Withdraw quickly! If you don't leave, it will be too late!" Zhou Jin gave the order decisively without waiting for him to say anything else.

Of his 30,000 troops, nearly 10,000 were lost in a single encounter. How dare he stop now?

As the military order was issued, the Qin army had just launched its attack. The Ling army had already given up its defense line and ran to the right, once again preparing to join Liao Yaoguang.

This retreat was so hasty that many of the soldiers who were still carrying the wood threw away their things and ran away, not to mention the heavy supplies of food and grass in the camp.

Zhou Jin ran, but Su Yi did not pursue him, so he entered the camp and prepared to cross the river for the second time.

Looking at the situation around him, Ning Zhan couldn't help but say with joy: "This is the first time I encountered Zhou Jin in the wild. I didn't expect to meet him again this time. But this guy has learned to be smart. He knows how to retreat early and return it to us."

So many things were left behind.”

"Haha, that's good. Bring all the food and grass for the Spirit Army." Su Yi was also happy.

Not long after, another general walked up quickly, clasped his fists and said, "Commander Su, I discovered that there is a pontoon bridge built by the Ling Army in the Baisha River."

"Okay, it just saves our army the preparation to cross the river." Su Yi said: "Send my military order that the entire army will not stay here. After crossing the river, all the pontoon bridges will be destroyed."

"No!" The general took the order and left.

The situation on the battlefield was very clear. For the first time, Su Yi took the initiative to attack to the southeast and crossed the river to the right. The Ling Army followed. In the battle zone to the right of the Baisha River, they were about to shrink the encirclement, but Su Yi made another detour and passed through the gap.

Kill him and come back.

This sounds simple, but in fact it requires very precise military judgment. A slight mistake can lead to death.

This shows Su Yi's commanding ability.

And from the beginning of the siege and suppression in early October, it is already November.

The news of Zhou Jin's ministry was sent back to the commander-in-chief, and Huang Zu was furious again. He protested and asked sternly: "You let Su Yi run away again!?"

"This...yes, the Qin army appeared and disappeared, detouring from the north to the southwest, almost passing by General Wu Xiangming, then crossing the Baisha River and returning to the Jingyang war zone." The general in charge of military intelligence swallowed his saliva.

If the river is used as the boundary, now there are 400,000 spiritual troops on the right and the Qin army on the left.

"This is unreasonable!" The Ling Army once again missed the target. Huang Zu was already furious and immediately said: "Pass this commander's military order! Take Zhou Jin back to the camp immediately! Military law is engaged!"

"What's the crime for this?" the general asked tentatively.

"Don't you need to say this! He ran away from the battle!" Huang Zu said angrily.

Seeing that he was extremely angry, the general did not dare to plead for mercy and quickly said respectfully: "Yes, I will go and deliver the order right away."

After he left, a civilian officer in the army stood up, raised his hands and said, "Commander Huang, Su Yi has fought in many places and returned to Baisha. Although it is of little significance, it will tire out our army."
