Chapter 1118 Guarding Chongqing
The generals ran away quickly and gathered the cavalry to chase the north.
"return!"
But before I could run away, I heard Chen Guojun shouting.
They rode back with some doubts.
Chen Guojun is really amazing. In this short period of time, his face turned much calmer. He forced himself to suppress his anger and said, "Forget it, stop chasing him!"
He didn't know how many Song troops were near this Guwanzhai at this time, and he was afraid that the cavalry that they would chased out would only ruin their lives in vain.
Looking at the Guwan Village where the fire was spreading, Chen Guojun said in a low voice: "Let the soldiers camp and rest first!"
After several days of running around and being raided by hundreds of Song troops one after another, he even felt tired.
"Receive the order!"
The generals could see that Chen Guojun was still very angry at this time and did not dare to say more. After receiving the order, he hurried away.
At this time, no one dared to be too stunned in front of Chen Guojun, for fear of ending up with the same consequence as the unlucky general he had killed before.
Later, some of the Li army from Yue entered the military camp, and some camped outside the camp.
The military camp is not big these days, and it is impossible for mere Guwanzhai to accommodate 50,000 people.
But suddenly, there was another thunder sound.
It was a bad guy in the Yue Li army who came to the village to step on the thunder that had not been detonated before.
This made Chen Guojun almost vomit blood when he was so angry that he almost bit his teeth into pieces, "Food bucket! They are all food buckets!"
But even though he cursed like this, he understood in his heart. It was not that his command was too weak, but that these Song soldiers were too strong.
In terms of physical fitness, tactics, equipment, and courage, these Song troops were better than his command. And this was just the defenders of the Song army.
He knew that the strongest army in the Song State was the Song army. At this moment, he suddenly became a little curious about how strong the imperial guards of the Song State would be.
Is there really a stronger army in this world than these Song troops?
How did the Emperor of the Song Dynasty train them?
At the same time, he felt a little regretful. Perhaps it was not the right choice to ask the emperor to agree to the Dali Emperor to send troops to attack Song.
Originally, he thought it would be easy for a 50,000 army to capture Guangnan West and even the East Road without the imperial guards stationed in the Song Dynasty, but now he has no confidence as he did at the time.
The few more than a thousand defenders alone caused him such a heavy loss, and how many Song garrisons are there in Guangnan West and East Roads?
Such defenders seem to have them in every city in the Song Dynasty?
After Chen Guojun led the generals to the hall in Guwan Village, he was stunned and said nothing for a long time.
On the official road several miles north of Guwanzhai.
Fan Pengfei and Wubai Light Cavalry soon met with Zhu Haiwang and others again.
Seeing them coming, Zhu Haiwang and others all showed joy on their faces, and then they met them one after another and asked, "How?"
As soon as he asked this, he saw Zhu Mingyan and others sitting on the horse. Zhu Haiwang said happily: "Captain Zhu, you will be back!"
Zhu Ming turned over and got off the horse and knelt on one knee. "Reported to the deputy commander, the task you assigned has been completed! The thunder formation in the village killed nearly two thousand soldiers of the Yue Li Dynasty."
"good!"
Zhu Haiwang was overjoyed and said, "When this battle is over, I will come to the emperor to ask for you!"
Zhu Mingyan looked at the brothers who suddenly became a little lonely after looking at the back of his face, and said, "I will not seek merit, but only... the court can provide relief to the brothers who died in this battle."
His Yongping Village Guard Corps has a total of 500 people, and now there are only more than ten of them left.
When Zhu Haiwang heard this, the smile on his face couldn't help but hide, patted Zhu Mingkai on the shoulder and said, "There is no one who can't die in war. Don't worry, the court will not forget the pensions for the fallen soldiers. Although the emperor is in the palace, he will also see you fighting bloody on the battlefield."
At this moment, Zhu Mingkai, the young general, suddenly swallowed even more, "I...my brothers... are almost dead..."
He did not cry when he was ambushing the Yue Li Jun; he did not cry when he raided the Yue Li Jun; he did not cry when he rushed out of the bunker and wanted to fight to the death.
But now, he cried.
Crying heart-wrenchingly.
His mission was completed, but the brothers who lived with him day and night were almost dead.
The more than ten soldiers of Yongping Village guards who survived were all crying at this time.
Zhu Haiwang and others looked at it, but just sighed, not knowing how to comfort them.
It is exactly what he said just now that there is no one who can't die in war. As long as you fight on the front line, anyone may sleep forever.
After a while, Zhu Haiwang, Zhu Hecong and the others led their soldiers to continue northward. Then, they stopped about ten miles from Guwan Village.
Without camping, the soldiers had just used dry food in the wilderness and did not even have a bonfire, so they went to bed like this.
I haven't had a rest for almost two days and two nights, and everyone is very tired.
No one plans to go back to Yongzhou.
Zhu Haiwang told Mao Xingyan and the others during the march that before Liu Anfu Envoy led his army to Yongzhou City, even if they were buried outside the city, they would never return to the city. Because with the weapons in their army, a few thousand people could not stop the army of the Yue Li Dynasty. If the Yue Li Dynasty army captured Yongzhou, the people in the city would inevitably suffer. They needed to deal with the Yue Li army in the wild, just as Zhu Mingkai led his army to delay the Yue Li army's attack on Guwanzhai before.
Yongzhou City is their home, and they cannot bring these thieves and robbers to their homes.
The night is dark.
It was just after the rain on Chongqing Prefecture on Kuizhou Road.
As the marshal of Zhenxi Military Region, Yue Peng led the Tiankui Army to take charge of Chongqing Prefecture.
The lights in the military camp hall were brightly lit.
However, the Marshal Yue's mansion in the city seemed deserted, and the banana leaves were wet after the rain.
Since learning that Shuzhong invaded, Yue Peng lived in the military camp and never returned home. Even though he had a young son at home, he had never returned to visit him.
Chongqing Prefecture is located at the junction of Tongchuan Prefecture Road and Kuizhou Road. The White Horse Army in Shu attacked Song, and Chongqing Prefecture was the first to be hit. This is also the heroic pass that the White Horse Army will inevitably break when it attacks Song.
At this time, Yue Peng had also received news that the White Horse Army in Shu divided into two groups, attacking Dazhou and Chongqing on Kuizhou Road.
Dazhou is located on the north side of Kuizhou North Road, west of Kuizhou Prefecture, and also borders Xinsong Tongchuan Prefecture Road and Xixializhou East Road. The White Horse Army is going to attack Dazhou, and its intention is very obvious.
As long as you capture Dazhou, you can take Kuizhou, which is equivalent to opening the western gate of the Song Dynasty. At the same time, it can also shock the Western Xia, an allies of the Song Dynasty in the north.
The intention of attacking Chongqing Prefecture was naturally even more obvious.
Chongqing Prefecture is the largest gateway to the west of the Song Dynasty. Yue Peng was desperately fighting back. If the White Horse Army captured this place, it would be able to march straight into Changsha.
