Preparing to rebel: This is actually the world of comprehensive martial arts?

Chapter 63: No one can retreat, otherwise the military law will deal with it!

“General Wu, isn’t this right?”

It’s just that when Wu Chongxun rushed out, Liu Zhi and Gongsun Lang were opposed. Although the two spoke very tactfully, the tone revealed their true thoughts.

“Chen Tangguan is lost, the road back to Jizhou is gone, we can only go in the direction of Youzhou, so what we have to do now is to stabilize the position first instead of messing with ourselves.”

Hearing what the two said, Wu Chongxun had already realized something, but he still suppressed his anger and gave a solution.

“Then let’s go quickly!”

But the two men wanted to evacuate quickly, not engage the enemy.

“Is it so easy to retreat?”

Wu Chongxun was almost not angry to death, and cursed angrily: “Now that the enemy army is attacking, if we retreat, won’t we be chased and beaten by the enemy?” ”

“Before you let you retreat to Chen Tangguan and not retreat, but now the back road has been cut off, whose fault do you think this is?”

Gongsun Lang was very unceremonious, and directly scolded Wu Chongxun.

What about the manager?

Now that the little life is not guaranteed, who cares if you are the manager or not?

“Gongsun Lang, don’t think we can’t beat us, the other side is a person, we are also people, can it be that they are better than me?”

Wu Chongxun was very unhappy with Gongsun Lang’s mentality, so he continued to spray.

Although Liu Zhi was very anxious in his heart, he also knew that if he retreated rashly now, there would inevitably be chaos, so he hurriedly gave an explanation.

“General Wu, we don’t mean that, but the retreat must be arranged, otherwise it will be difficult to retreat at that time.”

But at this time, Wu Chongxun was already suspicious, but did he dare to say that Liu Zhi and Gongsun Lang were in charge of this matter, what if these two wanted to escape? Therefore, in response to this situation, Wu Chongxun said in stern terms: “Don’t think about escaping with this name, no one can retreat without my order, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law.” ”

Liu Zhi: Gongsun Lang: “….”

Damn, is this Wu Chongxun crazy?

The two did not expect Wu Chongxun to be so crazy, this is a direct showdown, then we only regret that now the two of them only have 10,000 troops in their hands, compared with the nearly 50,000 troops in Wu Chongxun’s hands, the gap is still obvious, and the combat strength of the two sides is also different.

Outside the camp of the Xia Army.

The 50,000 Beifu troops had already been assembled.

Although there was no boss sitting in the town, the Beifu Army did not show any signs of chaos, but entered the combat state in an orderly manner.

Under the command of the general, the crossbowmen had already formed a phalanx, and quickly replaced the phalanx of the sword and shield soldiers of the previous army, while the crossbowmen immediately entered the firing state.

At this point, with just one command, a crossbow arrow can be fired.

In addition, there were archers who were in ambush and drew their longbows, waiting for orders to shoot.

“Shoot!”

As the flag bearer waved the order flag, the order to shoot was given.

First, the archers started shooting first, vibrating with the sound of bowstrings.

The black-pressed arrows shot out, covering the entire sky in just an instant, just like that dark cloud. In the blink of an eye, the screams of the enemy army were heard in the camp.

However, the enemy quickly adjusted and quickly rushed towards the Beifu army. A large number of cavalry rushed out and returned towards the crossbowmen, and the archer phalanx returned.

Although it was not a hoplite cavalry, relying on mobility, it quickly approached the front military vehicle of the Beifu Army.

If it is approached by cavalry, then crossbowmen, archer phalanx is undoubtedly dangerous, but because of the approach of cavalry, it is undoubtedly entering the shooting range of the crossbow.

And the power of the crossbow arrow, that is even stronger.

Sure enough, just as the cavalry was about to rush, the crossbowmen shot out thousands of crossbow arrows, and the cavalry rushing to the front instantly fell a large piece.

Although these light cavalry had armor, horses did not.

For the sake of mobility, these light cavalry do not wear armor, and even knights do not wear heavy armor, but a small amount of armor, which only protects the key parts.

So a round of crossbow arrows came down, and the cavalry received a major blow. However, it was still rushed to the front by a part of the cavalry.

Then, the sword and shield soldiers quickly appeared, protecting the crossbowmen and archers.

After retreating the crossbowmen and archers to cover, the phalanx of sword and shield soldiers quickly entered the battle and killed the enemy. Against these light cavalry, with the experience and equipment of the Beifu Army, the sword and shield soldiers did not say that they were at a loss, and because of the dense formation, the mobility of these light cavalry could not be brought into play.

Moreover, without mobility, the light cavalry’s charging ability was inferior to that of the hoplites, so it was quickly overwhelmed by the infantry, and in the end, only a few hundred cavalry escaped back.

However, because the charge of these two thousand cavalry came down, it bought time for Wu Chongxun’s side, and he quickly adjusted his combat deployment, and the infantry quickly pressed forward, preparing to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

At this time, it is impossible to say retreat, you must fight with the other party. As for the way to retreat, Wu Chongxun naturally arranged it properly. Chen Tangguan has been lost, and the Jizhou side cannot get by.

Then it can only be to retreat in the direction of Youzhou, but the retreat does not mean that it will be retreated immediately, but it must be withdrawn in an orderly manner first, plus there is also the threat of enemy troops.

Therefore, Wu Chongxun had to deal with these 50,000 rebels first, otherwise it would be difficult in case of a front and rear attack when the back road was cut off.

In order to prevent this, Wu Chongxun also sent part of his troops to guard the junction leading to Chen Tangguan to prevent the enemy army from suddenly coming out from the rear.

However, because this force was scattered, the army that Wu Chongxun used to meet was less than 50,000 people.

5,000 people were assigned to guard the intersection in the direction of Chen Tangguan, and another 5,000 people were sent to open the road, and another 10,000 people were arranged to break the road. As a result, the remaining strength is less than 50,000.

But because Wu Chongxun was on the front line, and the main force was the left and right Wuwei, the morale of the army was still okay, at least available, so it temporarily resisted the offensive of the Beifu Army.

The Beifu Army strictly implemented Su Mu’s military orders and chose to retreat after a round of fighting. This scene aroused Wu Chongxun’s suspicions.

Wait, why is that?

But before Wu Chongxun could think about it, Liu Zhi and Gongsun Lang came up again.

“General Wu, according to the scout report, there are a large number of people coming over at Chen Tangguan, it is estimated that the rebels who occupied Chen Tangguan are coming, we should go.”

Since the enemy army is temporarily retreating, why not take advantage of this opportunity to hurry up? This leaves the green mountains there, not afraid of no firewood, right?

Anyway, Liu Zhi and Gongsun Lang came with such a mentality.

“Withdraw!”

Wu Chongxun knew that there could be no more chaos now, plus the situation was okay now, not too bad, then as long as it was safely evacuated, he could come back again.

Of course, if this manager is changed or not, then I don’t know.

However, after this battle, Wu Chongxun knew that he was somewhat underestimating the enemy, coupled with too many concerns, so that he was forced to retreat without launching a siege of the city.

Alas, I am so humiliated!

Wu Chongxun was undoubtedly very annoyed, but he could only accept this reality.
