Godsend Field

Chapter 327 Retreat

Everyone in the big tent was shocked by the strong murderous aura exuded by General Seiya at the same time, and the two soldiers trembled in fright, almost unable to stand still.

"Brother Seiya, what's the matter?" Tianci hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

General Seiya's face was ashen, and he told the soldiers to go out before the general reported to Tianci.

Tianci took the military newspaper and glanced at it, his face turned blue instantly, "How could this be?"

The rest of the people couldn't sit still, "What happened?"

Tianci glanced at General Seiya, who nodded, "This is a military report from the border town of Salo. The dry food we stored in Salo was reduced to ashes last night."

"What?" All the generals shouted at the same time.Although the food stored in Salo City is rarely used, it is the food security of the Northwest Army after all. It is guarded by heavy soldiers on weekdays. Not to mention people, even a mouse is not allowed to get close!There have been no problems for decades, so how could it be burned by fire?
"Brother Seiya, this is just for storage. As long as we can supply it on time as usual, I don't think there will be any problem!" Tianci said carefully.

General Seiya shook his head, "Brother Tianci, you have not dealt with military affairs these days, and the food and grass delivery team has not come for three days. If you don't come today, something will happen! We were still wondering whether Haman was treating me. Poisoning, now that this kind of thing has happened, I am really worried about this Haman, I am afraid that something strange will happen to him!"

"Then how much food do we have left?" Tianci asked.

"No more than five days!"

"Suck!" Everyone in the tent took a deep breath.

"What's going on with Haman? We're about to win, but he doesn't provide supplies in time! Wait until the fight is over, and see if I don't deal with him properly!" Samohan yelled.

Tianci ignored Samohan, but looked at General Seiya, "Brother Seiya, we should have a good discussion now. What should we do if the army rations are not available!"

"The orcs on the opposite side started to move, and at this time our military rations have problems again, we have to discuss it carefully and make full preparations!" General Seiya sat down, "Now we have to figure out two points, the first One, is our military rations on the way or not at all, if they come out, we are there now! Second, how many orcs are there, should we defend in batches or the whole army!"

"I can do this!" Tianci said, and ordered the people outside to call Li'er in.

After a while, Li'er and Qin'er walked in together.Tianci asked Li'er to take a white shadow to walk back from the ration delivery road for half a day, to see if there was a ration escort team passing by along the way.

After Li'er left, everyone returned to the desk and began to discuss countermeasures.

"We are more than a day away from Salo City, but Salo City is relatively small, and it can't accommodate us at all. And there are small towns and small towns along the way, and there are no big cities, only here!" General Seiya said. Pointing to a city on the map, "Salt City! Only here can accommodate us and provide enough supplies! But this journey will take ten days!"

"If the food and grass can arrive within five days, we can stand still and keep defending until the strong wind comes. But if something happens and the food and grass can't come, then we can't wait to reconsider the matter of defense! Godsend, everyone, everyone What do you think?"

Tianci looked at the map, "If the food and grass can come, everything will be fine, but if the food and grass can't come, our tens of thousands of people can't starve to death here! Just in case, I think we don't wait here to die, it's better to guard in batches! "

"Not bad!" General Ashina agreed, "According to this battle, we wiped out [-] to [-]% of the orcs, and the remaining one hundred thousand at most, we only need to leave one main battle army to defend, and the rest of the brothers began to retreat! "

The rest of the generals also nodded in approval!

General Seiya thought for a while, "What you said makes sense. Even if the food and grass are on the way, we have to make more plans! You go back to each army now, choose the strongest fighting spirit to form an army, and add all the horses to stay behind. , the rest of the people are ready to distribute three days of military rations, and once it is found that the military rations have not arrived, they will immediately retreat to Yanhua City!"

"Yes!" The five generals immediately went back to prepare.

General Seiya frowned and sat on the chair.

Tianci walked up, "General, it seems that you are very afraid of this General Haman?"

General Seiya glanced at Tianci, stood up and walked back and forth in the middle of the big tent two or three times, "Haman has contributed to the Northwest Army. Back then, the Ximapo Mutiny caused heavy damage to the Northwest Army, although the Lord Saint personally took action to put it down. The orcs were killed, but the Northwest Army was almost finished. I was appointed by His Majesty to reorganize the Northwest Army. But in those years, the orcs repeatedly committed crimes, and the Northwest Army was about to face war before it took shape. It could not grow stronger for more than ten years. It was not until the appearance of Haman It completely changed the status quo. He proposed to form an army from the wild, and adopted a large number of orphans from the poor areas of the Northwest into the Northwest, which gradually changed and formed today's Northwest Army!"

Tianci listened silently, "Then why not let him lead the troops?"

General Seiya stopped and remained silent for a long time, "Right! Back then, we successively formed four main battle armies, Samohan and Samoning Xiaoyong, who were good at fighting, and had a heroic personality. It is most suitable for them to lead the main force of the Northwest Army. Palma The fighting spirit is strong, and they are also very good at training subordinates. The defense of the main battle army they formed is excellent, so I have to give him room to play. Ashina, you know, the art of war is good, and the fighting spirit is also good. Yes, the most important thing is that he is easy-going and can play a lubricating role among the generals. As a commander, it is often inconvenient for me to intervene in their disputes. At this time, Ashina can help me a lot, so I must To maintain his status as a general. For the four of them, Haman said nothing, he hopes to become the fifth general of the Northwest Army's main battle army. With the growth of the Northwest Army, we will soon develop the fifth A main battle army, and Harman is determined to win this general! But unfortunately, when I went back to the capital to report on my duties, I ran into Jeske at the gate of the city..."

"So you took a fancy to Jeske who was about to be sent to the frontier, and pleaded with His Majesty to bring him back to the Northwest Army, and appointed him as the fifth general!" Tianci said.

General Seiya shook his head, "It's not that I'm partial, it's just a trick of fate! Jeske has been the commander of the Northwest Army since he entered the Northwest Army, and just happened to be invaded by orcs. He is calm and composed, and he commands the army in an orderly manner. Ashamed. Our Northwest Army studied the art of war of the previous week, and what we lack is a general with high military literacy like him, so I finally decided to hand over the fifth general to him. But because of this, Haman treated me Since then, he has been separated from Germany, and on the surface he still listens to my appointment, but I can feel that he is starting to stay away from me. About five years ago, in order to make up for my guilt towards him, I applied to His Majesty to appoint Haman as the sixth general. Responsible for all the logistics supplies and equipment military expenses of the Northwest Army. But what I didn't expect was that he... oh! Am I really wrong?"

Tianci shook his head slightly, "General, you are not wrong! Your focus is on the entire Northwest. General Jeske's military quality can make up for many shortcomings of our Northwest Army. It's just that Haman doesn't understand it!"

"At the beginning, I was very careful about Harman, but he has worked hard for more than ten years without any mistakes, so I relaxed my vigilance and thought that the matter was over, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen. There are tens of thousands of granaries in Salo There will be no accidents at all, and the only explanation is man-made. And only Haman has this ability!"

The entire Northwest Army is busy at this time. Except for the [-] elite soldiers selected, the rest of the soldiers have been notified that they will march back to Yanhua City early tomorrow morning, and there is only three days of food, but it will last for about ten days .No one complained, just executed the order silently.

At dawn, Li'er came back and quickly ran into the big tent.

"How's it going? Did you see the team escorting the rations?" Tianci asked eagerly.

Lil shook her head.

"Sure enough! What did Haman really do!" General Seiya said angrily, "Come here, pass on my military order, and the troops will immediately march to Yanhua City! Tell the five generals to come to the big tent to discuss matters!"

Following the issuance of the military order, hundreds of thousands of troops marched towards Yanhua City.Because there is not much food, the Northwest Army can only have enough supplies if they arrive at Yanhua City as soon as possible.And Yanhua City is the most important and prosperous city in Northwest China. As long as Clark buys food from the market, it will be enough for the Northwest Army to use for a period of time!
Five generals quickly came to the tent.

"Everyone, I got the exact news that no food was transported along the way. Judging from the situation, Harman probably betrayed our Northwest Army and the empire. It is very likely that he was responsible for my poisoning." Seiya The general said sadly.

"Damn it, I know he's unreliable! I want to be a general when I sharpen my head on weekdays, but you gave him everything, brother, and he's still not satisfied! Don't let me see him next time, or I will slap him to death!" Samo Khan suddenly became annoyed.

"Yes, but don't shoot to death, leave me a copy!" Samoning was very annoyed!

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this!" General Seiya stopped, "We have to discuss what to do next! The troops in front have already set off, but they can't do without a leader, Ashina, you and Samonen Now also set off immediately, lead the team to station in Yanhua City, remember not to disturb the people!"

"Yes!" General Ashina took the order.

"Brother, why did you let me go, they..." Samonen suddenly stopped talking, lowered his head and rolled his eyes to peek at the eyes of General Seiya staring at him.

Ashina saluted, and forced the awkward Samoning out of Dazhai, chasing after the troops in front.

Most of the Northwest Army camps left, leaving only one hundred thousand elite still stationed.Because the troops in front only brought food for three days, the remaining food was enough for the Northwest Army for eight to ten days, and there were still horses left.Depending on the situation, the orcs will launch an attack tomorrow morning, so everyone should go back to rest early at this time!

At night, Tianci stayed in his military tent feeling a little restless.

"I said brat, why are you walking around? You don't get dizzy, we all get dizzy too!" Qin'er pouted and said, Lier next to her secretly pulled Qin'er's sleeve.

Tianci didn't seem to hear "No, why do I feel that something is wrong all the time! Logically speaking, the season of strong winds is coming, and the orcs don't have many troops. They clearly know that we still have so many troops, so how can they still move? ?”

"My lord, I also find it a bit strange. Are they too stupid to act when they know that they are invincible?" Chen Wu said.

Tianci shook his head, and suddenly saw Yu'er who was full and about to go to bed, and ran over to pull Yu'er, "Good Yu'er, can you do me another favor? Help me go to the opposite side to see how many of them there are!" "

Yu'er shuddered, immediately drooped her ears, and shrank into the corner of the wall, never wanting to go to that ghostly place opposite again!

"Yu'er, you don't want anything to happen to us either, so I'll trouble you one last time this time, so I won't be an example!"

Yu'er had no choice but to lazily stand up and walk towards the outside of the tent.

After about two hours, Yu'er came back with a suit of dust, gesticulating with her little paws.

"What?" Tianci was taken aback, his eyes widened, "You're saying it again, how many are there?"

Yu'er's little paw continued to gesticulate.

Tianci's heart sank, and his face turned pale, "Chen Wu, you go and call all the generals to the camp of the Chinese army, something bad will happen!"

Tianci stopped talking, ran out of the tent and went directly to the big tent of the Chinese Army, General Seiya was still looking at the map, saw Tianci rushing in without even reporting, "What's the matter, what's the matter in such a panic? "

"Brother Seiya, something is wrong! Do you know how many orcs are on the other side?" Tianci asked directly.

General Seiya stared intently at Tianci, "Didn't you tell me that there are only [-] on the other side? Isn't it right?"

Tianci shook his head and pursed his lips, "I just asked Yu'er to inquire, and there are at least a million orcs on the opposite side, and they are all the main force and have no vassals!"

"Crack!" The pen in General Seiya's hand fell to the table. "Millions? How come?"

"It's absolutely true! So, General, we have to change our strategy. We can't take it hard, otherwise our [-] brothers will have to die here!" Tianci said anxiously.

At this time, the three generals, Chen Wu and others also walked in.

Tianci explained the situation of Yu'er's reconnaissance, everyone's face paled instantly, and it took a while for them to calm down!
"General, I think...we have lost this time!" General Jeske said with difficulty, "If there is enough food and grass, our troops don't leave, even if the sacrifice is a little higher, we can stop them, but now we don't There is no food and soldiers, and no capital to stop the orcs! So let's retreat!"

"Withdraw? What if we withdraw the people behind? What about the northwest? What about the empire?" Samohan yelled.

"What if we don't withdraw? Can our 10 people stop the orcs' million main force? When we are all dead, won't the orcs still enter the northwest?" General Jeske rebuked.

"After fighting for so many years, our Northwest Army has never backed down. Could it be that we just ran away this time?" Samohan still refused to accept, and pulled General Pama, "Say, should we fight or retreat?"

General Parma didn't answer, but looked at General Seiya with clenched fists.

"Okay, don't make any noise, let me think about it!" General Seiya thought.

Tianci suddenly stood up, "General, all generals, I have a word. The sun can rise even after it sets. We don't want to argue about the length of the day. For the sake of the foundation of the empire, we have to take a long-term view!"

General Seiya nodded and made up his mind, "Tianci is right! The [-] brothers left now are the backbone of our Northwest Army. I can't let them die here in vain, withdraw!"

"Withdraw?" Samohan opened his eyes wide.

"As long as there are brothers around, the territory we lost today can be regained tomorrow, but if the [-] brothers are gone, how will we stop the orcs from attacking next time? For the sake of long-term planning, I decided to withdraw!" General Seiya said "But we can't retreat so directly. Come and see, our northwest province has a large land area, and the cities are far apart. We just need to retreat to Yanhua City and use the cities and supplies here to fight the orcs! But this The small cities and villages ahead will probably be bloodbathed!"

Everyone was silent, this situation can be imagined, the first thing after the orcs entered the northwest was to bloodbath every village and city.

"General, we can send people to inform the towns along the way to tell them to retreat to Yanhua City, and then let the [-] strongest soldiers delay in Jianfeng Gorge for a while to buy time for them to retreat. What do you think?" Tianci said.

"It's feasible!" General Seiya nodded. "Jesker, you lead the [-] brothers and leave now. Remember to notify every town and village, and let all the people retreat to Yanhua City!"

"Yes!" General Jeske led the order and ran out.

The entire northwest barracks suddenly became commotion. It was supposed to welcome tomorrow's war, but now they waited for the order to retreat overnight?

"Brother Tianci, let your people go too!" General Seiya looked at Tianci and the others.

"General, don't worry about us!" Tianci said, turning to Li'er, "Li'er, you are fast, you go to Yanhua City to inform Clark immediately, tell him to get ready, collect food and grass, and build a temporary camp for the Northwest Army by the way! Then you go back to the capital, and I will write a military report with the general later, and you must hand it over to the military headquarters! Or just give it to Nero!"

Li'er was a little bit reluctant, but there was nothing she could do about it. Such a major national event cannot be delayed for a day. "Brother Tianci, you have to be careful!"

Tianci smiled slightly, "Don't forget that I have a dragon armor, they can't hurt me!"

General Seiya picked up a pen and quickly thanked for a copy of the military information, signed it with Tianci, and handed it to Li'er.Li'er took the space ring and once again told Tianci to be careful before stepping out of the big tent three times.

"Qin'er, you should go back with Li'er too!" Tianci said.

"No, I'll withdraw with you, besides, I can't ride the white shadow!" Qin'er said, in a good mood, finally able to see a real battle!
