Chapter 876


Chapter 876 Seeing that the Sichuan Zhen coalition army had given up the siege and the whole army retreated to the rescue camp, Zuo Shuang did not dare to delay, and immediately ordered the whole army to retreat and return to Gaochuan County.

How could the angry and ruined Chuan Zhen coalition army refuse to let them go, and the brigades of the two armies then covered up and killed.

However, the Western Frontier Army did not penetrate deep into the enemy camp, and retreated quickly, under the command of Zuo Shuang, the rear of the whole army changed to the front team, and retreated in a neat and orderly manner.

The cavalry of the Chuanzhen coalition army was the first to chase out of the camp, thinking that they could use the impact of the cavalry to disperse the wind army, but they were met with head-on fire from the western army.

The bow and arrow is a sharp weapon to restrain the cavalry, and the western army is good at archery, and they are active to retreat, not defeated, in a very short period of time to release the arrow array, so that the chasing Sichuan Zhen cavalry suffered greatly, rushing in front of thousands of horses were nailed into hedgehogs by the dense arrow array.

The Chuanzhen cavalry was shocked, under how dense and fierce the arrow array, where did they dare to rush hard, turned their horses' heads one after another, and retreated to the camp.

The enemy's cavalry retreated, and the Western Frontier Army was no longer under pressure, and the army quickly and unchaotically returned to Gaochuan County.

The Western Frontier Army came and went quickly, and did not have a head-to-head confrontation with the main force of the Chuanzhen coalition army, but the role they played was extremely crucial, directly solving the danger of Jinyang, so that the Chuanzhen coalition army's inevitable siege of the city returned again in vain.

After two consecutive days of fierce attacks by the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army, the new army stationed in Jinyang suffered heavy casualties, from nearly 100,000 troops to more than 30,000 troops, of course, the casualties of the Chuanzhen coalition army were much greater than the new army, but the strength of the Chuanzhen coalition army was also much more than that of the new army, even if the number of casualties had exceeded 100,000, it did not affect the combat effectiveness of the whole army.

The battle to defend the city was like this, and even Qiu Zhen began to lack confidence, and privately persuaded Tang Yin to abandon Jinyang, go north to join the army directly under him, recapture Ningding, and then compete with the enemy.

Tang Yin also wanted to withdraw, and when the battle reached this level, he didn't want to fight anymore, but the risk of retreating at this time was too great.

Now there are tens of thousands of Zhen troops stationed in Ningdingli, if the attack is smooth, it is good to say that it can be defeated in one go, in case the attack is blocked, the main force of the Sichuan Zhen coalition army behind will chase and kill again, and there will be no place to run if the army of their own side wants to, and there is a danger of annihilation of the whole army.

At present, Tang Yin can only grit his teeth and stand up in Jinyang, even if he withdraws, he has to wait until the direct army and the local army have joined forces to defeat Ningding, and his side has a real way to retreat, before he can withdraw from Jinyang.

Tang Yin did not accept Qiu Zhen's opinion and decided to continue to defend in Jinyang.

The only thing that reassured him was the containment of the enemy by the Western Army.

Tang Yin had sent an order to the Sanshui Army and the Western Frontier Army, asking the Second Army to join forces to block the menacing Huan Army, and the Sanshui Army acted according to Tang Yin's orders, but the Western Frontier Army remained in Gaochuan County and did not move.

Zuo Shuang didn't have the courage to disobey Tang Yin's order, and the reason why the Western Frontier Army did not go with the Sanshui Army to meet the enemy was Liang Qi's meaning.

Liang Qi's personality seems to be peaceful, but in fact, he is very arrogant, and there are few people who can make him look at him.

As the commander of the Sanshui Army, he has fought with the Ning Army too many times, in his opinion, the combat effectiveness of the Ning Army is extremely poor, and if he joins forces with it, the Ning people will not only not be able to cooperate with themselves, but will drag down their own side, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Second, and most importantly, Liang Qi hated Huan Jun to the core.

When he defeated the Huan army, he was kind enough not to kill the generals and generals, but he also let them go, but Huan Guo not only did not mean to be grateful, but sent an army of 400,000 to come, which made Liang Qi's heart full of resentment, and he held a bad breath in his chest, not to vent his unhappiness, he didn't want to pretend to be the hands of others, and made up his mind that he wanted to use the strength of the Sanshui Army and one army to defeat the Huan army again and kill them without leaving a piece of armor.

Liang Qi was originally a calm and deep person, but this time he was a little impulsive.

Zuo Shuang stayed in Gaochuan County according to Liang Qi's wishes, but solved the danger of Jinyang by mistake.

In the next few days, as soon as the Chuanzhen coalition army attacked the city, the Western Frontier Army, which heard the news, would rush over from Gaochuan County and attack the large camp of the Chuanzhen coalition army.

Zuo Shuang is very good at using troops, and he is also very cautious, every time he attacks the enemy camp, he will not rush deep, only shoot arrows and set fire to the edge of the enemy camp, once he sees the main force of the enemy returning to the camp, he immediately leads the army to retreat to Gaochuan County.

His tactics are like a piece of gum candy, sticking you to the ground, no matter how hard you try, you just can't remove it.

The Chuan Zhen coalition army was annoyed by the harassment tactics of the Western Frontier Army, but the latter was too cunning to seize the opportunity to engage Zuo Qi head-on, and the Sichuan Zhen coalition army attacked the city several times, but the result ended in returning to the camp to save itself.

At this time, even Ren Fang had a headache with this wind army, and sent someone to investigate carefully to find out that this wind army was not a wind army in the real sense, its predecessor was the Central Army of Ningguo, and its commander was a Ning general named Zuo Shuang.

Ren Fang is very clever, and keenly aware that there may be an opportunity to take advantage of it.

He sent a well-spoken Sichuan strategist to Gaochuan County to persuade Zuo Shuang to let him take refuge in the Sichuan Kingdom and fight the wind together, after all, the Ning Kingdom was destroyed by the Wind Country, and the Ning and the Feng people should be mortal enemies.

After entering Gaochuan County, this Sichuan strategist successfully found the location of the Western Frontier Army, and also successfully met Zuo Shuang.

In front of Zuo Shuang, this planner can be described as a river of words, dancing with his hands, laying out facts, reasoning, moving with emotion, knowing with reason, and trying to persuade Zuo Shuang.

Zuo Shuang didn't interrupt him, listened silently, muttered silently, and finally waited for the great truth of the Sichuan State Strategist to come to an end, Zuo Shuang asked with a smile: "That's what Your Excellency wants to say" The strategist of the Sichuan State nodded his head and said: "Since General Zuo Shuang is so good at using soldiers, he must also be a hero among the people, and he should be able to see that now the general trend of the Wind Country has gone, and getting out as soon as possible is the right way.

His words were half-persuasive and half-threatening.

Zuo Shuang nodded, his eyes swept over the strategist, looked outside the tent, and shouted: "Someone will pull out this Sichuan country who has bewitched the people and disturbed the hearts of our army, and beheaded it to show the public."

His words scared the Sichuan strategists stupidly on the spot, he was an envoy of the first army, even if Zuo Shuang didn't listen to his persuasion, but he couldn't kill himself Before he had time to explain, the guards outside rushed in, couldn't help but say, dragged him out of the tent, and cut off his head with a knife.

Zuo Shuang asked the head of the Sichuan State strategist to put it in a box and send it back to the camp of the Sichuan Zhen coalition army to show his determination.

The envoy he sent out was killed, and only a bloody severed head was sent back, which was undoubtedly a great shame for Ren Fang, and he immediately sent his deputy marshal Jin Zhuo to command the 200,000 Sichuan Zhen coalition army to go to the territory of Gaochuan County to crusade against the Western Frontier Army.

Before sending out the troops, Ren Fang gave Jin Zhuo a death order, no matter what the cost, this enemy army must be completely annihilated.

Jin Zhuo took the order and left, with an army of 200,000 people, with great momentum, and marched south into Gaochuan County, wanting to fight to the death with the western army.

The Western Army, commanded by Zuo Shuang, was more cunning than a fox, and as soon as he heard that the brigade of the Chuan Zhen coalition army was coming to his side, he abandoned the camp with all the soldiers of the army, fled into the hinterland of Gaochuan County overnight, and used roundabout tactics to entangle with the enemy.

Even the siege of the city has caused heavy casualties to the Chuanzhen coalition army, and now it has sent 200,000 troops, and the army that can be used to attack the city has been greatly reduced.

Over the next few days, the two sides gradually turned from fierce fighting to bitter fighting.

Ren Xinzhong knew very well that his own side was difficult, and the wind army in Jinyang was even more difficult, at this time, he must not relax, let alone stop attacking the city, even if he was stubborn, he had to persevere, and not give the wind army in Jinyang a chance to breathe.

The Wind Army is also struggling to support, the enemy's siege force is getting smaller and smaller, but the Wind Army's combatable troops have been reduced more seriously, if it weren't for Tang Yin who has been staying in the city, fighting side by side with the soldiers in the army, and resisting the enemy together, the fighting spirit of the Wind Army may have collapsed long ago.

The two sides are on the one hand, they have to send it, and on the other hand, they are desperately resisting for survival, and the battle of Jinyang has reached a stalemate at this time.

It was difficult for the Chuanzhen coalition army to break through Jinyang, and Jinyang had no power to retreat from the enemy.

Although the battle between the two armies continued, it was no longer as fierce as the first two days of the siege.

On the other side, the directly subordinate army that left Jinyang and the local army of the three routes appeared in the four directions of Ningding, southeast and northwest.

There were 100,000 people in the army directly under it, and there were 780,000 people in the three routes, totaling nearly 200,000 troops.

There were so many wind troops suddenly outside Ningding City, most of the Zhen army commander Xiao Chong was surprised, and he even wondered if the wind army had abandoned Jinyang and rushed to Ningding.

He hurriedly ordered the city to be closed, and all the soldiers of the army were on the city wall to resist the attack of the wind army.

After the direct army and the local army arrived in Ningding, their commanders gathered together to discuss the enemy's strategy.

As the commander of the directly subordinate army, the commander of the three-way local army naturally took her as the leader.

According to Wuying's meaning, his side should attack the city with all his strength, break through the defense line of the Zhen army in one go, and break into the city.

Before the commander of the three-way local army could express his position, Fan Shan had already begun to shake his head, and said in a loud voice: "It's not appropriate for the whole army to attack, it's really inappropriate."

Wu Ying frowned secretly, squinted at Fan Shan, and asked, "What does General Fan think is wrong?"

Fan Shan Zhengse said: "We still don't understand the reality of the enemy army, how can we attack with all our strength as soon as the war starts?"

What he meant was to use the three-way local army as a way-finding stone, and the commanders of the three county armies felt quite uncomfortable when they heard this, but from the overall situation, Fan Shan's words did make sense, after all, the direct army was the main force, and it was the central army, which was one of the pillars of the resistance to the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army, and could not withstand losses.

Wu Ying pondered carefully, and also thought that Fan Shan's idea was good, so she nodded her head and thanked her, looked around at the three county army commanders, and asked, "What do the three generals mean":
