Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 279
Blood flowed down the banks of the Luoshui River, Gu Gu's blood stained the grass, and layers of corpses covered the ground. In the red river, Nanchuan soldiers in black armor rushed downstream with the water, and the broken black military flag A big hole was burned by the flames of war, and it was extraordinarily empty.

Nanchuan General Xia Ge was patrolling this flesh and blood battlefield, his face was livid, his eyes were full of anger, his fists were clenched, his nails were embedded in the flesh and blood without knowing it because of accusations.

Xia Ge's pursuit troops encountered an ambush by the retreating dynasty army on the banks of the Luoshui River. The two banner battalions that pursued the fastest were completely annihilated, and five banner battalions with unknown conditions rashly joined the battlefield and were massacred.

By the time Xia Ge led the main force to the Luoshui River, the Dynasty army had calmly withdrawn to the south, leaving behind a messy battlefield.

This counterattack by the Dynasty Army was like a blow to the head, and Xia Ge, who was dazed by the victory, calmed down immediately. Only now did he realize that the Dynasty Army was not defeated, they just retreated in an orderly manner. Armament, is sure to make a comeback.

Due to the setback at the Luoshui River, Xia Ge became more cautious and cautious in his pursuit. He gathered all the troops of the four corps under his command to act together, so that once he encountered the enemy, he would not be eaten in one bite.

As a well-known general in the Nanchuan Army, Xia Ge's most commendable quality is that he has learned and summed up his experience and lessons, and suffered a dull loss, which allowed him to grow up quickly.

In the following pursuit, in front of the chasing troops, the detection range of the Nanchuan scout Qingqi expanded to fifty miles, and any disturbance within the fifty miles could not escape Xia Ge's eyes.

In order to avoid being ambushed by the dynasty army again, Xia Ge ordered the scouts to search all places where soldiers might hide, and continue to pursue until it is safe to confirm.

Haotian, the commander of the First Army Corps of the Central Committee, defeated the seven banner battalions of the Nanchuan Army on the banks of the Luoshui River in one fell swoop, gaining a lot. Having tasted the sweetness, he set several traps one after another, but facing Xia Ge who was already prepared, Haotian is doomed to return empty-handed.

In a forest, Haotian personally led two infantry flag regiments to ambush in it, preparing to ambush the Nanchuan army that was chasing, but Nanchuan scout Qingqi circled around the forest a few times, judging from the clues that there was an ambush.

The chasing troops led by Xia Ge stopped five miles away from the woods, stationed in formation, and sent a large number of scouts to set fire to the forest, forcing Haotian to retreat out of the woods with his troops angrily.

Xia Ge's army is now like a fly, sticking to the back of Haotian's army, constantly harassing, Haotian has set up countless schemes, and Xia Ge has resolved them one by one. Xia Ge's principle is to procrastinate, procrastinate The speed at which Haotian retreated troops.

Haotian troops set up camp, Xia Ge will also order to camp, Haotian speeds up, Xia Ge will also order to speed up, the distance between the two sides has always been kept at about five miles, Haotian, who has failed in several calculations, is now feeling angry.

The strength of the rebel army behind him is not as strong as his own. If time permits, he can annihilate them in one fell swoop, but now as long as he turns around, Xia Ge will turn around and run away. will follow.

What's more important is the endless harassment. The Haotian troops set up camp, Xia Ge will send troops to harass at the same time, and will launch raids from time to time at night. In the past two days, the Dynasty Army has already had two banner battalions. The losses in the night raid were so heavy that now Haotian sleeps in fear, fearing that the rebels behind him will catch up.

Due to Xia Ge's delay, Haotian had to deal with it mentally. In order to maintain the physical strength of the soldiers to cope with the sudden attack, Haotian's troops had to camp every day before the sun came to Luoshan, because once night came, the Endless harassment is coming.

Facing such mangy tactics, even if Haotian is a shrewd general of the Dynasty Army, he is still feeling deeply exhausted at this moment, because the opponent will not confront you head-on at all, and you have nowhere to use your strength, and They also seized their own weakness, which is to continue to retreat.

The military rations of Haotian's troops have bottomed out. If he can't quickly evacuate to a safe area, his entire army of [-] soldiers will face the danger of collapse. For the survival of the troops, Haotian finally made up his mind and prepared to give it a go.

"General, General, there is movement from the Dynasty Army." Xia Ge who was sleeping was gently shaken awake by the guards, because he had been in the battlefield all the time, so Xia Ge slept very lightly.

Xia Ge immediately sat up. In order to guard against the surprise attack of the Dynasty Army, Xia Ge's troops almost never took off their saddles and armor. "What's going on? Are the Dynasty Army going to run or fight?"

"General, I think you should go and see for yourself." The guard looked embarrassed.

Xia Ge grabbed the saber beside him and quickly followed the guards to the outskirts of the camp. The rest of the generals had already arrived.

"General!" The generals, who were woken up in the middle of the night, were disheveled and sleepy. When they saw Xia Ge approaching, they hurriedly saluted and stepped out of the way.

Not far away, the dynasty army camp was full of hustle and bustle, torches were dancing, and soldiers were gathering.

The generals whispered to each other, not knowing what the Chao Dynasty military camp on the opposite side wanted to do, besides being woken up in the middle of the night, they hadn't woken up yet, and their hearts were terrified.

"When did the dynasty army camp end like this?" Xia Ge's military uniform was straight, calm and calm, and after observing for a while, he turned his gaze to the star officer.

The star officer hurriedly replied: "Return to the general, about 10 minutes ago, I immediately sent someone to notify you after observing for a few minutes."

"General, what should we do now?" A general was at a loss and asked Xia Ge.

Xia Ge stared at the noisy Dynasty army camp in the distance and replied in a deep voice: "You split up and inform the soldiers, gather quickly, whether the Dynasty army wants to run or attack us, we have to be prepared."

"Remember to silence—" Xia Ge reminded.

Facing the sudden change, Xia Ge's composure greatly affected the generals. He was hurriedly called up in the dark, and the confused generals quickly calmed down and went to carry out orders separately.

In the Nanchuan military camp, the sleeping soldiers were awakened. Except for the sound of weapons and armor colliding, the entire camp was quiet, and the Nanchuan soldiers were quickly gathering in the camp.

"Please." At the Dynasty army camp, Commander Haotian tightly held the hand of Xu Dong, the head of the cavalry flag, with a serious expression on his face.

The head of the cavalry banner saluted Haotian: "Young General, I'm going." Turning around, he got on his horse and rode into the darkness not far away.

In the darkness, [-] dynasty cavalry are standing quietly at this moment, with their sabers unsheathed, waiting for the order to attack.

In order to get rid of the Nanchuan army's pursuers, the task of these ten thousand cavalrymen will be to delay Nanchuan's pursuers for a day, which is also Haotian's decision as a last resort.

"General, the Dynasty Army wants to run away!" A general shouted loudly, pointing at the Dynasty Army troops that kept leaving the camp and retreating south.

The troops of the Dynasty army lined up neatly, holding torches, like a long winding dragon, they drove out of the camp in the middle of the night, and retreated to the south openly.

"Major General, do you need to leave a troop to guard against the rebels' pursuit?" A military officer stepped forward and asked.

Haotian shook his head. He believed that the cavalry under his command could stop the rebels from pursuing them, and what they had to do now was to retreat south with all their strength: "Send the order, throw away everything except weapons, and retreat at full speed!"

"General, if you don't chase them, you will run away!" An officer from Nanchuan reminded Xia Ge loudly.

Sitting on the horse, Xia Ge watched the dynastic troops retreat openly, feeling that things were not that simple. Once bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of well ropes, Xia Ge was now more cautious.

"General, there are cavalry rushing towards us!" Suddenly, the scout Qingqi galloped over, warning loudly.

Xia Ge sneered at the corner of his mouth: Sure enough, as I expected, he shouted loudly: "Arrange to meet the enemy!"

Countless red armored cavalry jumped out of the darkness, jumped into the Nanchuan army camp, and charged towards the fortified army formation.

Facing the fortified steel army array, many of these dynasty cavalry were shot several meters away. Even if they rushed to the front of the array, they would be stabbed through their bodies and blood gushed out. Jumping out of the middle, they rushed forward to attack the formation of Nanchuan Army, trying to open a gap with death, but facing the Nanchuan Army who was ready to attack, their death charge was obviously futile.

Standing in the army formation, Xia Ge saw these dynasty cavalrymen rushing forward one by one, and then being stabbed to death. He suddenly had a glimmer of understanding. He finally understood what Lin Chuan often said: Compassion does not command soldiers!
