Chapter 437 The Decisive Battle in Guangxi (Five)
Tohore is still alive and keeps asking the messengers to order the pursuit. However, how many generals can be known to the messengers in the chaos?
And how many soldiers can those generals mobilize in the chaos?
In this era, wars were linked together. The Song army's Flying Army blew up two Yuan army commanders, which could be said to have cut off all their seven inches.
Seeing that his soldiers were surging in front of him, Tohore threw his helmet to the ground.
He knew that by this moment, their siege and suppression battle had been completely defeated. Not only were they defeated, but they were also defeated extremely miserably.
The 150,000 army surrounded and suppressed more than 30,000 Song troops. Not only were they broken through and surrounded, but they also suffered countless losses. What was this a great defeat?
The Song army suffered much less casualties than theirs.
What's even more annoying is that they couldn't even keep the army that broke the Song army's rear.
The thunder falling from the Song army in the sky completely separated them from the Song army, making them dare not pursue them if they wanted to.
At this time, there was no longer a thunder in the sky. But I still wanted to chase after me, but I could no longer command the soldiers.
Tohoer didn't know what kind of mood would be when the results of this battle came to Wuzhou. Boyan coach and Yesuer deputy coach would be.
Hundreds of thousands of troops marched into Guangxi and ended up in such a situation. I am afraid it is impossible to wipe out the Song army again?
In his heart, he had unconsciously developed a strong fear of the Song army's new weapons.
He even felt that perhaps the entire Battle of the Song Dynasty would end in failure.
This made him, who had always been brave, suddenly feel as if he was dead.
In this way, the remaining nearly 100,000 troops in the field watched Song Jun go away stupidly.
After reaching more than ten miles away, the important road strangled by the mountains. Yuan Jun was stunned when he saw the hot air balloon flying back.
Then, he received a report from the scouts, and tens of thousands of Song soldiers attacked him in front of him. This made the commander of the thousands of Yuan army a little confused.
Tens of thousands of Song troops? How is this possible?
Didn’t the Song army have only tens of thousands of people in total?
Could it be that the more than 100,000 troops surrounding the Song army were not only broken by these Song army, but also failed to cause much damage to them?
In the eyes of the generals of this era, this is obviously almost a fantasy.
No matter what I think, tens of thousands of Song troops did not seem to be able to break out of the encirclement of more than 100,000 troops without any safety.
However, that's how things happened.
When several waves of scouts came to report that the Song army was getting closer, the chief general of the Yuan army was in trouble.
He has only a few thousand people, should he block or not?
It is definitely impossible to stop it, and at most it will delay the pace of the Song army. But will the Yuan army behind it rush up?
What happened to them?
And to the north of Xiujiang Town, Monto was also in trouble at this time.
The Song army was stockpiling more than 50,000 people in Xiujiang Town at this time, and the thousands of children of the Beggars' Sect were 60,000. This was twice as many as his command. At present, it was no longer a question of delaying the Song army or not, but whether he could protect himself in front of the Song army.
Seeing the Song army leaving the city in large numbers, he knew that it was time to make a decision. If the two armies completely fought, they would really not be able to withdraw and could only be eaten by the Song army step by step. With the popularity of the Song army's firearms, they would have twice the strength of the Song army, and Monto was unsure that they could take over the Song army. What's more, the situation is exactly the opposite, and the Song army has twice the strength of them.
"General Meng!"
While Monto was still hesitating, there was a deputy general next to him who could not help but say, "We should make a conclusion on whether to fight or withdraw."
"well……"
Monto sighed softly, "What's your idea?"
The deputy general did not hesitate at all. Obviously, he had made up his mind and said, "The Song army is powerful. If our army wants to continue to hold them back now, it is likely that they will be wiped out by their entire army. It is not that we are unwilling to do things, but that we cannot do things. Leave the green mountains and don't be afraid of burning fire. The general thinks that we should retreat immediately. Even if Commander Boyan blames me for not waiting, we still have reason to say that we really cannot deal with so many Song troops."
He pondered for a moment, "If all the soldiers died, then we really have no say."
Monto breathed a long sigh, "You are right, and you will be ordered to retreat!"
His eyes were a little complicated.
In fact, what he was worried about was not just the failure of the battle in Xiujiang Town, whether Boyan would blame him.
Boyan knows him, and he also knows Boyan.
Boyan has always been as delicate as his hair, and Monto knew very well that even if he had put all the blame on Huang Liangce in the letter, Boyan might not believe his words. With Boyan's cunning, he would definitely find some clues in it. Whether to punish him or not is actually just a matter of Boyan's personal intention.
Now he is stationed troops on the side of Xiujiang Town, holding a large army, which is useful to Boyan. But what about after retreating on this trip?
Who knows if Boyan will continue to be willing to bear the matter of Princess Mingzhu for him?
Moreover, Huang Liangce and Li Wangyuan have not died, which is always a hidden danger.
Although Boyan has always valued him, who in the officialdom has never done anything to abandon his troops and protect his car?
This small world that has attracted countless people to flock to is actually not very affectionate. After all, it depends on whether you have value.
Monto felt a little in his heart that if Huang Liangce returned to Dadu and exposed Princess Mingzhu to the emperor, as long as the emperor ordered a strict investigation, Boyan would definitely not protect himself, and at most he would just wait and see. He would not be able to disturb this matter for himself. After all, Princess Mingzhu is the princess the emperor most favored.
For the great cause of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan could sacrifice Mingzhu. But wouldn’t he feel angry?
When the war is over, I am afraid it will be time for His Majesty to vent his anger. At that time, no one will be able to protect themselves if they are related to Mingzhu.
So, Monto was in a dilemma before.
He wanted Boyan to see his role in the army and make efforts to protect him, but he was afraid that all his soldiers would be lost here.
However, when the deputy general said that he would stay with the green mountains and not be afraid of burning firewood, his heart suddenly felt as if a light was shining in, and his mind suddenly opened.
There was a sound of gold in the Yuan army formation.
Monto looked at Song Jun who was rushing out of the city from a distance and sighed in his heart, "I hope I won't go there..."
He plucked his horse and hurried eastward with the retreating soldiers.
As for the two thousand Yuan army cavalry that was fighting with the children of the Beggars' Gang, it seemed to be forgotten. From Monto down, no one in the Yuan army was evacuated with the soldiers.
It is impossible for those two thousand people to withdraw.
