In mid-September, Cassimbas finally had to return to his country. The heavy military affairs, complicated military situation, and the intrigues of the three-nation coalition forces below had already overwhelmed him. He did not want to leave at this time, but his body was already
He couldn't support it at all. He naturally knew what consequences the Northeastern Allied Forces in Zhizhou would face once he left, but there was nothing he could do. If he continued to stay in Zhizhou, maybe half a month at most, he would give up and return to the west.
Go back. Since you can no longer perform your due functions here, it is better to leave the opportunity to the new generation generals of the Three Northeastern Countries. If they can survive this hurdle, then they will have successfully opened the door to the top generals.
the way.
"Tonight." Cassimbas said in a deep voice, standing alone on the tower.
Yao Jinxi hurriedly took a step forward. He didn't understand why the commander insisted on coming to the top of the city even though he knew that his body was overwhelmed. Zhizhou didn't seem to have any outstanding scenic spots, and it was still windy on the city tower.
There is only a bare wilderness outside the city. But the commander stood here for a long time. Haruka Jinxi really didn't understand what the commander was thinking.
Cassimbas said slowly: "This evening, I will leave Zhizhou this evening and go to Juyongguan. Before that, I have submitted a letter recommending you as the commander-in-chief of the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun to the country. But now
It seems that it may not be possible."
Yao Jinxi naturally understood what was going on. During the recent period, Hetao once again launched several attacks on the defenders in Zhizhou City. Although it did not cause much damage to the coalition forces, only a few rangers were annihilated by the opponent. However,
Whenever Jin Xiangliang went to war, Hetao always stayed away. Coupled with Jin Xiangliang's brilliant record on the East China Sea Road that day, he has become a vaguely famous Northeast general after Cassimbas. He may still have a higher status in the Beijing military.
Prestige, but they have suffered repeated defeats over the years. Not to mention the high-level officials of the Three Northeastern Countries, as well as ordinary soldiers, between themselves and Jin Xiangliang, I am afraid they will all be more inclined to Jin Xiangliang.
"Jin Xiangliang is just a target deliberately set up by Hetao. If he really takes this position, I am afraid that the 300,000 troops of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures will be wiped out in the violent wind and rain of Hetao. What a pity.
, His Majesty, Ye Xiangjinxiang and others can no longer listen to what I am saying now." Kasimbas said with a bitter sigh.
Cassimba was a famous marshal who had been outside the Great Wall for sixty years without a single defeat in his life. His words were of great importance not only in the Baijing Kingdom, but also in the three Northeastern countries. However, after losing the Battle of Hukou, Cassimba
Sri Lanka's unbeatable record in the war was broken. The failure of the Yuzhou Road battle severely reduced the prestige of this old commander. Although the two battles in Hetao were just a draw, the three Northeastern countries even
Taking advantage. But for a famous general who has always been victorious, this is enough to be an excuse for others to attack him. In addition, after Cassimbas arrived in the Sixteenth State of Youyun, the battle situation in the Sixteenth State of Youyun did not change at all.
As a result, many people began to distrust the old coach and began to admire Jin Xiangliang, who was more energetic and courageous in his youth.
Yao Jinxi also looked at his old superior with sadness. The generation of famous generals who once dominated the world were so helpless. However, even he had no confidence in the war situation in Youyun Sixteen Provinces.
, who else in the three Northeastern countries can turn the tide? Do we really have to rely on Jin Xiangliang?
Yao Jinxi knew very well that it was inevitable for Cassimbas to return home, and his body was already overwhelmed. Although Yao Jinxi himself believed that as long as Kasshuai was in Zhizhou, the Hetao army outside the city would never be able to conquer Zhizhou. However, in this way
The price is to consume Cassimbas's already short life faster.
Subconsciously, Yao Jinxi has put the safety of Cassimbas above the gains and losses of the entire Youyun Sixteen States. For him, Cassimbas is not only his mentor, but also the leader of the Baijing Dynasty.
Tianzhu. As long as Baijing has Cassimbas, Baijing will never be destroyed.
From a deeper psychological analysis, Yao Jinxi not only has no extravagant hopes for the battle situation in Youyun Sixteen Provinces, but also does not even think that Juyongguan can be defended against the attack on Hetao. Therefore, he will finally
His hopes were pinned on Cassimbas. Although it was sad to lose the Youyun Sixteen States, compared with the safety of the entire Baijing Dynasty, he still felt that it was acceptable.
Kasimbas considered his tone, but still turned his back to Yao Jinxi and said: "Jinxi, as soon as I leave today, the Hetao side will definitely know the news. You don't have to worry about my safety, the Hetao Soul Eater is powerful.
, but I am not a newbie. Even if they set up a dragnet, they can’t even think of intercepting me. However, you should be careful here."
Yao Jinxi nodded. He naturally knew how powerful the soul-eaters in Hetao were. These people could be said to be all-pervasive. In the past, Youyun Sixteen Provinces was just a Shenzhou Martial League, but it had already caused chaos here. Later, Hetao would
After the focus shifted to Youyun Sixteen States, there will never be peace here. It is really not easy to hide from their spies. Unless someone inside them informs them. But where is the Hetao and the people here?
He has no favorable impression of the surrounding foreign races at all, and it is almost impossible to find a traitor among them.
Although Kasimbas didn't know what he was thinking in his proud position, he must have been in a heavy mood. He then continued: "As soon as the commander leaves, Loop will do whatever it takes to lure the defenders out of the city. If the commander is you
, I won’t worry about that. However, the coach at that time is Jin Xiangliang. Jin Xiangliang has been dazzled by the victories in these days. Yelu Wanxi, Heki Muer and Jin Zongbiao also hope to avenge their shame.
.Therefore, they will definitely take the initiative to go out of the city to attack."
For Cassimbas, the greatest tragedy is that he already knows the outcome of the matter and even knows the process in detail, but he is unable to change it. He is able to suppress the following.
There is a group of people, but now that he is gone, who can really control the overall situation? However, he still hopes to do his best.
"If our army goes out of the city and takes the initiative to attack, if there is a small victory at first, it will definitely be a big defeat. However, Hejimuler and Huan Fuzhuan are not mediocre people after all. The Hetao is just a round of attacks, and they will definitely not be able to annihilate our army.
It will be impossible to return to the city at this time, so the army will definitely break out towards Yanzhou. Once the army retreats, there is a high probability that the scene where the coalition forces fled from Xuanzhou to Donghaili that day will be repeated."
Haruka Jinxi had no expression on his face. Although Cassimbas described the scene in such an embarrassing manner, he did not doubt the old man's words at all due to his years of trust in Cassimbas.
"Tonight, remember this. Once the coalition forces retreat, you must not follow them to Yanzhou. You can lead your own soldiers, turn northwest and enter the Yunzhou boundary first, then go north to the Great Wall Mountains, and go eastward along the Great Wall.
Avoid entering Juyong Pass. Although this road is a bit longer, it is relatively safe. As long as you manage it properly, there should be no losses." Cassimbas turned around, patted Yao Jinxi's shoulder gently and said: "Jinxi,
The 300,000 coalition troops in Zhizhou City are already half of the elites of our three Northeastern countries. Although their morale is relatively low now, as long as they rest for a period of time, they will still be a tiger and wolf army. You must lead as many of them as possible
Go home!"
Yao Jinxi smiled bitterly and said: "Commander, there are only a little more than 30,000 troops left under the direct command of my subordinates, and with Prince Hekimur here, will the soldiers listen to my subordinates by then?"
Kasimbas said helplessly: "No matter how many there are, you just have to go all out. Every time you retain some vitality, you have more hope of victory. Whether it is 30,000 people or 300,000 people, even if you only have
Retreating into Juyongguan with three thousand soldiers is also a victory. Remember, when they take the initiative to attack, you must not stay in the city. Otherwise, you will definitely be blocked by Hetao, just like the original Tongzhou City.
Eventually it will turn into ashes and disappear.”
Cassimbas is finally returning to his country. In order to ensure Cassimbas’s safety, only senior military generals were present during the farewell. Looking at this old man who was already aging, Hekimul and others were happy.
Worry. Although I was dissatisfied and disappointed with him, when I said goodbye, the only thing left was respect.
He didn't persist to the end, but it was not his fault. At the age of eighty, there were only a few people such as Qingfeng's Tie Zhen and Dahu Road's Ouyang Jingzhong who were still running around for the safety of the country. He had tried his best.
, it’s just that his body simply doesn’t allow him to persist like this.
All the thousands of words were finally condensed into one sentence: "Kashuai, take care!"
Kasimbas' soft gaze slowly swept from Yelu Chixian on the far left to Jin Xiangliang on the far right. Each person's expression was different: Yelu Chixian was dead, Yelu Wanxi was confused, Leng Fangbu was gloomy, and He
Jimu'er is unruly, Yuan Jinxi is calm, Huan Fuchuan is perseverant, Jin Zongbiao is skillful, and Jin Xiangliang is somewhat energetic.
But before that, how high-spirited were each of them? When they first broke through the Great Wall defense line, the generals of the Northeastern Allied Forces were all impassioned. They marched across the Yangtze River with flags held high and their horses marching southward, dancing with golden swords across China.
But in just a few years, they have become like this.
Generals died in hundreds of battles, and heroes returned in ten years. Since Hetao launched an army in Dingzhou in 619, countless famous generals have died in battle, and nearly a million soldiers have been buried in foreign lands. The glory of Hetao is entirely based on the forests of the Three Kingdoms in the Northeast.
Above the Bones!
Maybe the Battle of Hukou back then was a mistake. If he hadn't been too conceited at the time, would Hetao have reached this point? He knew that letting the Hetao escape back then would have become a nightmare for the Northeastern Three Kingdoms in the future. However, he can't do it now.
This nightmare is over.
With a wry smile in his heart, Cassimbas said to Jin Xiangliang in a serious voice: "Xiang Liang, as the commander of the coalition forces, your task is not light! Although Zhizhou is short of supplies, as long as he abides by the law, he can last at least two months.
.These two months are crucial. As long as we stick to it, the situation will definitely change dramatically!"
Jin Xiangliang bowed and said: "Don't worry, Kashuai, we will definitely work together to ensure that Zhizhou is not lost!"
As soon as he saw Jin Xiangliang's appearance, Kasimbas knew that the other party did not take his words to heart at all. But at this time, he could not say anything, so he could only sigh in his heart and shook his head feebly.
The moment he stepped out of the gate of Zhizhou City, Kasimbas looked back. The flags on the city tower were fluttering in the wind. All the soldiers raised their weapons and looked at the old man slowly leaving under the sunset. Kasimba
Si felt suddenly moved in his heart. He knew that if he left, he would never come back again. Was this considered an escape?
As a soldier, this is undoubtedly the greatest insult to him. However, he has no choice. If there is another chance, he will never take a step back even if he fights to the death on the tower. Cassimbas in his heart
Think of it this way.
The setting sun dragged Cassimbas' back into a long shadow. This was also the last time he gazed at the city of the Sixteenth State of Youyun. After that, he never set foot on the land of the Sixteenth State of Youyun again.
A few years later, Cassimbas once again fought a decisive battle with hundreds of thousands of Hetao troops who were determined to take revenge in the capital of Beijing. Due to worries about military affairs and old age, Cassimbas died suddenly.
In this regard, when Qiu Mu wrote the Secret History of China, he made this comment: Kashuai died, and Baijing died! It is worth mentioning that when the Hetao tribe destroyed Baijing, Kasimbas was actually controlled by the Hetao people.
Buried in person, this single tomb, known as the Famous Marshal's Tomb, became the last memory for future generations when they recalled the Baijing Dynasty. And Cassimbas's name also became a constant chant by herdsmen outside the Great Wall.
The day after Cassimbas left, Soul Eater learned the news. Although Hetao was full of scouts on the way from Zhizhou to Juyongguan, Cassimbas was worthy of being a famous marshal and actually easily escaped the Hetao cavalry.
The sight easily returned to the country. Although this news disappointed the Hetao people, everyone understood that if Kasimbas was really so easy to intercept and kill, then he would not be able to become a generation who had been outside the Great Wall for 60 years.
legend.
However, as soon as Cassimbas left, Zhizhou City suddenly became a piece of fat in the eyes of Hetao. Of course, the first step was to attack the city. After all, there were nearly 300,000 Northeastern Allied Forces in the city. Moreover, no one of Yao Jinxi and others could take charge alone.
, Haotian is not so hot that he actively attacks the city. Therefore, the best way is to lure the snake out of the hole!
Therefore, under the careful arrangement of Xuanji, a trap appeared which was quite perfect but quite tempting to the defenders in the city.
