Chapter 4811: When disaster strikes, we all fly away
Jin army's central army, heading to the west.
Tan Zhi smiled and stood in front of the battle. Behind him were five hundred heavy cavalry with both men and horses. About a hundred paces to the side of the cavalry, Fu Hongzhi stood on horseback with a horizontal halberd, and five hundred men were heavily armored.
The infantry have dismounted and formed a formation, with their spears pointing forward, while the archers have formed a formation behind them. Behind their two infantry and cavalry formations, groups of infantry walked out of the smoke and commanded them.
It was none other than Zhu Chaoshi.
Three hundred steps away from them, there were three thousand Lingnan cave barbarians holding shields and swords. Sha Qianmo was holding a long-handled scythe and stood behind the formation, but his face no longer had the previous expression.
Arrogant and arrogant, and in the direction of the commander's platform where they originally attacked, only the corpses of the Tianshi Dao army were left everywhere. Under the commander's platform, soldiers of the Jin army stood around, and everyone shouted loudly: "Beifu
We must win, Beifu must win!”
A ray of sunshine emerged from the clouds, spreading golden light onto the earth. On the handsome platform, Liu Daogui finally slowly stood up from the bed where he had been sitting all night. He looked up at the sky,
He murmured: "It's dawn."
In Tianshi Dao's military formation, panic was spreading like a virus. Although the last reserve team, that is, five thousand Lingnan Dong barbarians, was divided into two directions and turned to defense, while more than 10,000
The Tianshi Dao army, which had been fighting all night, retreated to the starting position and ordered to rest, but no one had the intention to really rest on the spot. In their eyes, the thousands of Jin troops' infantry and cavalry that fell from the sky were completely out of control.
It was beyond their expectations and imagination, and what was even more frightening was that this army appeared on their flanks like this, quietly arraying themselves, motionless, as if they were sitting back and watching their continued attack.
Xu Daofu's face was already covered with sweat. He stood on a hillock, while the black robe was still wearing the equipment of a small soldier. He looked like Xu Daofu's messenger. The two stood side by side in silence for a long time.
Xu Daofu murmured to himself: "It's over, everything is over. There is no one who has escaped from the rear army. Nanfeng must have broken, and your Taoist Songfeng must be dead."
The black robe gritted his teeth: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. How could Liu Daogui still have such reinforcements? I have already set an eye in the direction of Ma Tou. They definitely did not come from Ma Tou."
Xu Daofu sighed: "Have you not understood yet? These soldiers and horses did not come from Jiangling or Matou direction, and their equipment did not come from Yongzhou soldiers and horses. These cavalry should be all left by Liu Daogui.
The armored cavalry and infantry are under the command of Zhu Chaoshi who came from Jiangzhou!"
The black robe took a breath of air: "Zhu Chaoshi? He, how could he appear here?"
Xu Daofu gritted his teeth: "I will figure it out, but not now, Heipao. Now we have no chance to attack. Don't send out your shield barbarians anymore. There is no meaning other than exposing you."
.”
The black robe nodded: "You and I have thought about this together. Now we have less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left. What should we do?"
Xu Daofu shook his head: "With only the Lingnan barbarians who killed Qianmo as the rear guard, the army shrank, each department took turns to cover, and the enemy withdrew in front of the enemy."
The black-robed man frowned: "Withdrawing troops from the enemy's front like this? Where to withdraw? Wulindu?"
Xu Daofu nodded: "There is no other way. Although you and Lu Zongzhi have had some private contacts, the man named Lu is very cunning and will never come to help us when we fail. He will only beat up the drowned dog.
If we go to the Matou camp at this time, we will be in a dead end. It should be easy for you to escape alone, but I will take my men back to Wulindu."
The black robe was a little surprised: "Don't you need me to send out the Shield clan members to protect you?"
Xu Daofu sighed: "Now that things have happened, it is useless for thousands of your clansmen to come to cover me. After all, I still have 20,000 troops. The Jin army fought hard day and night. Liu Daogui's Jingzhou Corps has almost reached its limit and is powerless.
If we continue to chase, these reinforcements are only two to three thousand on foot and cavalry. I don’t think they would dare to pursue my entire army. As long as I command it properly, we can still return to Wulindu safely."
The black robe nodded: "Well, I lost almost all my troops in this battle. Now these tribesmen are my last military strength. Since they can't be put to great use, I will take them away secretly now.
If it's too late, the Jin army may find out. After I settle them, I will go find you and Lu Xun. Daofu, remember, the greater the power and the more troops in your hands, the more likely I will be.
I will help you fight for your position in front of Lu Xun, otherwise if you lose your strength, I will not be able to speak for you."
A fierce light flashed in Xu Daofu's pupils: "We are companions on the same chariot. Don't think of leaving me behind. If I die, you will not be able to benefit. Although we failed to capture Jingzhou this time,
But our navy still has an advantage, and as long as we can win a water battle, we still have the possibility of a comeback."
The black robe smiled slightly: "I will wish you a successful comeback, but before that, you have to find a way to successfully evacuate. You and I have seen Liu Daogui's ability this time, so don't underestimate the enemy."
Xu Daofu glanced at the long, black arrow in his quiver, shining with the light of death, and whispered: "The grudge between him and me is not over yet. Don't worry, maybe I can't capture Jingzhou, but
I will find a way to kill him!"
The black robe turned around and strode down the small ridge, jumped on a war horse that had been prepared long ago, and drove away, followed by dozens of guards. Soon, he disappeared in the northwest direction.
Xu Daofu breathed a long sigh of relief, turned to the few messengers who had just rushed closer and said: "Send the order, all ministries will take turns to cover the retreat, and march slowly towards Wulindu."
Half an hour later, on the hill where Xu Daofu was standing, Liu Daogui, Zhu Chaoshi, Tan Zhi, Tan Daoji and other generals stood side by side. Everyone had a look of joy on their faces, looking at the situation two miles away.
Outside, the Tianshi Dao army was still retreating in an orderly manner. Tan Daoji raised his lips and said, "Are we just going to watch them retreat like this? Brother Daogui, it's still too late to chase them now."
Liu Daogui looked at Tan Zhi calmly: "A Zhi, what do you think?"
Tan Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Actually, when I first arrived at the battlefield, I wanted to attack across the entire front. If you hadn't sent a signal at the commander's station asking me to postpone the attack, I'm afraid I would have started to attack the formation with armored cavalry. At that time, the demon thieves
There is almost no defense on the flank, it is the best opportunity to attack, why should you miss it? I want to hear Brother Daogui's explanation!" ()
