Ju Nan gritted his teeth: "Damn it, these island barbarians really want to fight us! General Shao, let's quickly notify Peng Shuai and ask him to quickly move closer to us, join forces, and fight the Jin army here.
!”
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded from outside. Ju Nan frowned and said sternly: "Asshole, there is a military discussion going on here, didn't you see it?"
A scout with a flag on his back ran up and knelt down on one knee: "General, about a hundred miles to the south, there is a large group of enemy cavalry approaching our army quickly. Judging from the fire, there are at least five or six thousand cavalry, and there are only two of them away from us.
The clock is ticking, please make a decision quickly!"
Ju Nan opened his eyes wide and was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he shouted: "What?! Five or six thousand riders? How is this possible!"
Shao Bao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Deputy Commander, it seems that the Jin State has been concealing its strength. They can eat General Du in one bite. It is not surprising that there are thousands of cavalry. They may be taking advantage of the victory to pursue them and want to directly
Attacking us!"
Ju Nan punched Shuai Ben, causing the wooden box full of arrows to jump twice. His eyes widened and he said sternly: "The Jin army bullied people so much that I don't believe it. We, the Qin Cavalry,
, will be afraid of his thousands of troops! Send the order, the whole army must assemble, line up, and follow me to fight!"
Shao Bao quickly raised his hands and said anxiously: "Deputy Commander, you must not do this. It is night now, we don't know the strength of the enemy's army, and the front army has been wiped out, and the morale of the army is already unstable. If we fight at this time, we may lose a lot!"
It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured down on him. After a long time, he sighed: "You are right. In terms of the art of war, the risk of a forceful attack is too great now. So what should we do now?"
Shao Bao frowned: "The only solution now is to fight here with open fire, surrounded by suspicious soldiers, while our army quickly retreats north to meet up with General Peng's main force. The Jin army can occupy at most one of our empty camps. We are cavalry."
, there is not much food, grass and baggage, and there will be nothing left for the enemy!"
Ju Nan's expression changed: "What, you want me to flee without fighting? General Shao, how can you so boost the enemy's ambition and destroy our prestige?"
Shao Bao gritted his teeth: "As a general, you need to know how to advance and retreat. The current battle situation is extremely unfavorable to our army. A strong attack is likely to fail. Retreating is the best policy. The five or six thousand cavalry of the Jin army are just the vanguard. How many are behind?
It’s hard to say, but if our army and the enemy’s cavalry get stuck in the dark, and a large group of enemy infantry arrives from behind, we won’t be able to leave even if we want to!”
Ju Nan began to sweat on his forehead and murmured: "Can't we rely on this camp to defend it?"
Shao Bao sighed: "Deputy Commander, we are cavalry. This temporary camp does not have good protection at all. We only have some simple fences, tents, and not even arrow towers or sentry towers. If we want to fight with others here, we might as well
They were pulled out and relied on the mobility of the cavalry to fight in the field. But General Duyan’s five thousand cavalry couldn’t even hold out for two hours. We ten thousand people just go out to fight, how long can we last?!”
Junan let out a long sigh, sat back on the handsome chair slumpedly, closed his eyes, and shook his head: "I led my cavalry to fight without permission. I wanted to make great achievements and be superior to Peng Chao, but now that I have done this, I have to do the opposite.
How can I hold my head high in the future by surrendering to others?!"
Shao Bao curled up his lips, took a step forward, and whispered: "Deputy Commander, you can't be impulsive at this time. A powerful enemy is currently approaching, and the attack is menacing. I'm afraid the entire plan to attack Huainan will be changed. Can we keep this army safe?"
It's a good thing to bring him back and defend Pengcheng. Go back first. I'll help you speak to Governor Peng. Even in front of the King of Heaven, I will say that it was Du Yan himself who accidentally fell into an ambush. We shrink and get closer to the main force.
There will be no problem in choosing."
Ju Nan gritted his teeth and stood up. Ten thousand reluctances were written on his face, but he still said in a deep voice: "Send the order and gather quickly. The camp is full of open fire fighting, with straw men placed behind the fence, bluffing, and
The army then withdrew from the rear camp gate in three groups and quickly moved towards Pengcheng!"
As he spoke, he walked out of the tent. After walking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something and turned to Shao Bao with a smile: "General Shao, the two thousand troops you command are the elite of our cavalry. Please trouble me."
You're done with it."
Two hours later, Liu Yu stood in Ju Nan's handsome tent. The smell of sheep from those barbarians still remained here, and he was surrounded by cheerful brothers. Tan Pingzhi sat in Ju Nan's tent.
Sitting on the handsome chair left behind, he laughed and said: "I guess this is the chair that is hard to sit on. It belongs to grandma and is still warm."
Wei Yongzhi's three hare lips moved: "These barbarians ran very fast. In two hours, the camp of more than 10,000 people was completely evacuated. Those sergeants were also unlucky and didn't even have a good night's sleep.
If you go, you have to get up and run away at night."
He Wuji smiled and shook his head: "But when they left, they knew that they extinguished the fires by peeing. Even after they left, they still disgusted us. Ji Nu, this camp is now full of these people who peed.
The smell is too bad, should we move to another place?"
Xiang Jing curled his lips: "Brother Jinu, don't the Hu people have no food and baggage for the war? Why do we have no food and grass when we enter the camp? Can they escape in such a hurry and carry the baggage with them?"
Liu Yu said with a smile: "These Hu cavalry are very mobile. Unlike our infantry in the Central Plains, who have to use heavy baggage vehicles to transport grain, grass and ordnance during battles. Their cavalry often carry five to ten days' worth of dry food, with dried meat as their food."
Lord, we are two to three hundred miles ahead, while the cattle, sheep, and grain and grass are in the rear camp. According to what the prisoners said, the Qin army's logistics general is named Shao Bao. It is difficult for him to move together this time. The grain and grass are
It is to build up troops in the rear, and the troops in the front are only responsible for fighting, so this time they lost the forward camp, and they only need to withdraw their troops, not their food."
He Wuji nodded: "In fact, the same is true for our army. Food roads are life to the army. Often the place where food is stored is hundreds of miles away from the front. Every day, civilians need to transport food to the camp in front. But this time
We marched all the way forward and scared off the Qin army, and we didn’t have to worry about the food and fodder at the rear."
Having said this, He Wuji looked at Liu Yu: "Jinnu, we have traveled more than 200 miles from Guangling to here, which is a bit far from the main camp. Now we have successfully scared off the enemy.
, how about stationing here and waiting for backup?"
Liu Yu shook his head, with a cold glint in his eyes: "No, we can't stop now, keep moving forward, keep attacking. Believe me, if we drive the enemy all the way to fight like this, they will become more and more timid. Marshal Xuan and General Liu will definitely know that I
For the purpose, reinforcements and supplies are just ahead!"
