The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1374 The Battle of Weizhou ([-])

However, looking at Paoze surrounded by the Song army, he couldn't just lead the army back.

It's not that he can't bear it, but that he can't bear the consequences.

Because if Tu Boda knew that he immediately led his army to retreat because of resistance, regardless of his robe, he would definitely be punished.

Therefore, he could only lead his army here to confront the Tianqiao soldiers, but he also gave up the idea of ​​forcibly rushing over.

Just relying on the five thousand soldiers he led out of the city was not enough to give him such confidence.He even felt that even if he forced his way through, it was more likely that even people like himself would be trapped in it.Those surrounded by Paoze can only rely on themselves whether they can get out of the siege.

Before I knew it, nearly two quarters of an hour passed.

Inside and outside the encirclement, the sound of gunfire and thunderous explosions gradually became less and less.

Although the Qingyuan Road Yuan army burst out with hope and tried their best to break through, they still failed to make up for the huge gap in strength.

Qiu Muke and Shan Shancai led two armies each, and the encirclement of soldiers from one regiment, three regiments and two regiments was now shrunk to only a few hundred square meters.

In the encirclement, there are probably less than a thousand Yuan troops still standing.

Facing the soldiers of the Tianqiao Army who were advancing step by step, and the peripheral reinforcements never rushed over, their mood gradually sank to the bottom.

Hope gradually faded, and the loss became more and more heavy.

Many soldiers of the Tianqiao Army shouted loudly: "The surrender will not be killed! The descendant will not be killed!"

Many people in the Qingyuan Road Yuan Army who no longer longed for it showed signs of struggle, and then gradually gave up resistance.

One by one, the soldiers threw the Shenlong guns in their hands to the ground, and like a domino effect, groups of soldiers chose to surrender.

Even those soldiers who wanted to continue to resist, in such a situation, it was difficult to summon up courage.It is human nature to follow the crowd.

The war here has come to an end.

Qiu Muke and Shan Shancai met.

Qiu Muke said: "You confiscate these surrendered ordnance, and I will help General Pei!"

Then he yelled a few times and led the two regiments to run west.

Before he led his army there, there was already the sound of gold ringing in the Yuan army.

When General Na Yuan heard the gunshots fading away, he knew that there was no reason for his escape, so he decided to retreat decisively.

After the sound of gold ringing, the Yuan army that came out of Weizhou City no longer confronted the soldiers of Tianqiao Army, and retreated towards Weizhou City.

Pei Yuande frowned slightly, and then ordered: "Chase!"

The soldiers crawling on both sides of the official road came out one by one, screaming to kill, and drove the Yuan army to the ground.

After chasing and killing to less than a kilometer away from Weizhou City, even the top of the city seemed to be close in front of him, Pei Yuandecai ordered the soldiers to stop, stop chasing, and led the soldiers back.

When they met Qiu Muke who led the army to catch up with him, the two looked at each other and smiled, then joined forces again and went to Shan Shancai.

When they returned to the place where they first confronted, the kindness had already asked the soldiers to guard all the descendants of the Yuan army.

The battlefield is being cleaned.

Some soldiers were picking up the scattered Shenlong guns on the ground.

Seeing that Qiu Muke and Pei Yuande led the army back, Shan Shan came up and asked with a smile, "How is it?"

Pei Yuande smiled and said: "Those Yuan troops fled back to the city. But this time, they probably lost two thousand soldiers, haha!"

The more he talked, the happier he became. In the end, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Qiu Muke also laughed out loud.

Only kindness smiled, but he suddenly frowned and looked in the direction of Weizhou City, and said in a low voice: "Will those Yuan troops come out of the city again..."

The smiles of Qiu Muke and Pei Yuande, who had just won a big victory, instantly subsided and became dignified.

The words of kindness made them realize that now is not the time to be complacent.

Qiu Muke said: "The Yuan army in the city must have the consciousness to dispatch soldiers to the east gate of the city!"

Then he hurriedly shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "Clean the battlefield quickly! After gathering, march eastward for 500 meters!"

It is impossible to have time to clean this battlefield without leaving any traces.

No one knows when the Yuan army will come again.

They can only continue to ambush the Yuan army in Jiuzhaigou if they continue to move eastward and stay away from Weizhou City.

"Commander."

The kindness waited for Qiu Muke to give orders, and said: "I think we should report this matter to the commander in time. Now the Yuan army in the city already knows our reality. If they lead more soldiers over when they go out of the city, they will fight with us again." With the combined forces of the Yuan army in the eastern stockade of Weizhou City, we are afraid that... it will not be easy for us to deal with them."

Qiu Muke nodded slightly, "It should be so!"

Then he hurriedly arranged for scouts to go to the south of Weizhou City to report to Zhang Guangbao.

And less than 5 minutes after the scouts left, some scouts hurriedly emerged from the dense forest on the east side of the official road.

This team of scouts ran straight in front of Qiu Muke and the others, knelt down on one knee, and the leader said: "Commander, there is another Yuan army approaching from the east! It is less than two miles away from here."

Qiu Muke frowned suddenly, "It came so fast?"

Then he counted the time and sighed again, "We still delayed too long..."

Kindness looked at the surrounding soldiers who were still cleaning the battlefield, and said, "Then let's kill them like this?"

Concealment of the army is a technical task. Now that the Yuan army is less than two miles away from here, it is unrealistic for the Tianqiao army to want to hide seamlessly.

After all, with so many people, hiding in the dense forest will always leave traces.

Moreover, they had to travel 500 meters to the east to hide.Even if you can not leave a tail, there is still not enough time.

Not to mention, it is very likely that this Yuan army also heard the gunfire here, and it is almost inevitable to send scouts to explore the way.

Qiu Muke felt a little regretful, but still nodded and said, "That's the only way to do it."

In the east of Weizhou City, there are five stockades in total.They didn't even think about ambushing the five-element army, and the time simply wouldn't allow it.

Sooner or later, they will have to fight the Yuan army head-on, but now it is just advancing the time.This will inevitably cause Tianqiao's soldiers to pay more damage, but there is no way to do it.

Things are difficult in the world, especially on the battlefield.

After making such a decision, Qiu Muke and others didn't bother to clean up the unfinished battlefield and let the soldiers gather.

On the official road, there are also dense forests on both sides of the official road, and the soldiers of the ten regiments returned to their respective buildings.

They still stood as they did during training in the camp, but there were many positions, but now they have become empty.

In this battle, more than [-] Yuan troops were wiped out and hundreds of prisoners were captured.The Tianqiao army also paid the price of more than a thousand soldiers for this.

This is actually a big victory, but it is still different from before.

The Yuan army with firearms is really not as lethal as before.

After the soldiers of each regiment returned to the camp, Qiu Muke only ordered: "Let's go!"

The heads of the regiments left in front of him. When they reached the front of the army, the heads of several regiments walked away with their generals.

They have long believed that there will be a head-on confrontation, and the strategic deployment has been discussed as early as the way here.

The Yuan generals who had left the city before had run back into the city with their soldiers in desperation.

The moment I set foot in the city, I am afraid that I will have the feeling of the rest of my life after a catastrophe.

The general's face was extremely ugly, and he said angrily: "Go and report to the commander, and say that there are more than ten thousand Song troops in the east of the city, and we failed to rescue the reinforcements!"

"Yes!"

A scout hurriedly galloped towards the south of the city.

The general looked out of the city with fear in his eyes, probably not daring to leave the city easily.

After a long time, he sighed softly, and said with some loss of interest: "Everyone, rest..."

Now all he can do is to stay inside the city gate and wait quietly for the Song army to attack, or for Tu Boda to issue another order.

West of Weizhou City.

Before the fighting that was about to start again in the east of the city hadn't started yet, Yuan troops also arrived here.

There are four stockades in the west of Weizhou City, and the Yuan army's troops deployed here are not as strong as those in the east of the city.However, the distance between the four villages here is slightly closer.

He Xingwu, the commander of the Heavenly Crying Army, is a veteran in the army, and was transferred from the deputy commander.At this time, the soldiers leading the Heavenly Crying Army ambushed on both sides of the official road.

The soldiers of the Frost Regiment of the Tiangui Army had already returned to Zhang Guangbao's side when they arrived here.Therefore, only the Heavenly Crying Army is in ambush here.

It is said that He Xingwu, who was born in a local ruffian, is over forty years old, but he still has some shadows of the original, with a grass slanted in his mouth, and his eyes are always fixed on the west side of the official road.
