The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1027 Yuan Army Retreats

After Ba Gen and the others discussed hastily, they finally did not dare to lead the army to retreat like this, because they dared not, and they could not bear the consequences.They just sent two waves of scouts to find Ashu, and asked Ashu to make a decision.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty who have penetrated from both sides of the city wall have not yet been able to encircle them, and they still have this opportunity.

At the same time, the three of them also tried their best to gather the soldiers, fighting and retreating towards the back.The shield bearer is in front of the hard top, followed by the archer.For example, ordinary swordsmen, artillery throwers, etc. did not dare to show their heads, but retreated with the army.

This is the only way Ba Gen and others can come up with.Fighting and retreating can ease the offensive of the Song army, and will not cause the army to panic and completely collapse in an instant.

But they still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Song army, and overestimated the resilience of their own soldiers.

Is it fun to gather seven thousand guns together?
This kind of deterrence may be stronger than an army of [-] mixed with hot and cold weapons.It can be said that the combat effectiveness of the [-] garrison armed with Shenlong guns can be compared to the [-] forbidden army, or even surpassed.

And can an army of more than 2 yuan be an opponent of a Song Dynasty imperial army?
Not to mention that apart from these 1 guns, there are more than [-] soldiers of the Song Dynasty who are armed with sharp knives and guns and wear tough armor.

The impact they had on the Yuan army was truly terrifying.

Yuan armies from all walks of life continued to shrink towards the main street.

Some generals ran up to Ba Gen and the others, saying that they were really overwhelmed, and asked Ba Gen and the others to retreat quickly, but Ba Gen and the others did not dare to issue a direct retreat order even though they were extremely anxious.

They just let the generals hang on.

inner city.

Soldiers from the Song and Yuan Dynasties are still fighting.

In a short period of time, the gap was already full of corpses.

Ashu's complexion gradually turned ugly.

He has already dispatched most of the generals' experts, but right now, there is no sign of being able to take down the inner city wall.

Should we continue to increase our troops?

Every time this thought arises, Ah Shu feels his heart twitch.

The Song army defending the city was very powerful. Sending more soldiers up at this time would not help the siege too much, but would probably increase the casualties.This is like thousands of troops attacking a canyon that is only about five meters wide. The number of people who can really confront the enemy in the front row is extremely limited.It really doesn't pay off.

This is also the reason why Ashu attacked Changle County, but never put all his troops on it.This is not a field battle. The city wall of Changle County can accommodate so many people attacking at the same time.

At this moment, with the hot air balloon pressing on the Song army's hot air balloon and unable to escape, the only choice for Ah Shu was to send more masters to attack the city.

But his heart aches!

Before the city's martyrs of the Song Dynasty came out of the city, there were too many masters in his army desperately.Especially the top masters are almost dead.

And just when Ashu was hesitating, the scouts sent by Bagan finally ran up to him, "Marshal, the Song army broke through the city and attacked fiercely. Our army is unable to resist. General Bagen asks you to send troops to help. We, just It's about to be surrounded by the Song army!"

"Ok?"

Ashu's eyes suddenly widened, "How many people from the Song army attacked the city?"

The scout said: "First, about seven thousand-man regiments, all armed with Shenlong guns, broke through our army's defense line, and then more than ten regiments rushed into the city."

Ashu's face turned pale, and his voice trembled slightly, "Are they all elite soldiers?"

The scout replied: "General Ba Gen said that these are the real soldiers of the Song Dynasty, only the remaining Song soldiers outside the city. It is not known whether they are soldiers or civilians. But..."

The scout carefully looked at A Shu's face, "We can't resist the Song army attacking the city alone. Their firepower...is too fierce...Whether to fight or retreat, General Bagen asks Marshal to make a quick decision !"

Ashu frowned with thick eyebrows and fell silent.

Based on his experience, of course he could immediately think of the consequences of Ba Gen and others leading the army to retreat.With Ba Gen retreating and Song Jun advancing, he would not want to continue to attack the inner city here with peace of mind, he could only give up the siege.

But now that he has paid such a high price, how can he be willing to give up?

After tens of seconds, Ah Shu said to the scout again: "You really have no chance of blocking the Song army?"

The scout put his head on the ground and said nothing.

This is of course the default.

A Shu sighed: "Then withdraw it..."

"Yes!"

The scout took the lead, got on his horse and ran away.

One more minute of delay now, and the outer city of Paoze will be more dangerous.

Ashu looked up at the sky, and murmured, "Time and fate?"

The originally invincible Dayuan iron cavalry ran into walls one after another in front of Song Jun. Even his confidence was a little shaken at this moment.It seems that Da Yuan is no longer favored by the gods as before.

As soon as the scouts left, Ashu dispatched another [-]-man regiment to the outer city to support the retreat of Bagen, Eshier, and Hobu's troops.

There are only ten thousand troops left beside him.

As Ashu swept across these soldiers, his eyes inevitably showed a bit of sadness.

Before he came to Fuzhou with a mighty army of [-], he thought that the mere Changle County would be at his fingertips.But now, the situation is very different from what he expected.

Not only did he fail to take Changle County smoothly, but the number of soldiers lost in the army was as many as nearly [-].

This is not counting the soldiers who are now attacking the inner city, and the soldiers and horses under the command of Ba Gen and others who have resisted the Song army on the southern city wall.

If those Song troops outside the city were also real Song troops, then... A Shu might not have much advantage in terms of military strength now.

How could this still be Song Jun's opponent?
All kinds of thoughts in Ah Shu's mind were chaotic.

Even if they captured the inner city, would they really be able to stop the attacks of these Song troops?

There was a sudden sound of drums in the Yuan army formation.

Ah Shu finally gave the order to retreat.

Although the Yuan army that was attacking the city was at a loss, they quickly retreated towards the outside of the city.

There was a wave of cheers from the top of the city.

The soldiers and common people of the Song Dynasty saw the Yuan army receding like a tide, and some people burst into tears.

The Yuan army has withdrawn!

They must be scared!

Because Song's reinforcements arrived.

The inner city of Changle County is guarded, and it will definitely not be slaughtered by the Yuan army again.

It takes time for the hot air balloon of the Yuan Army in the sky to withdraw.

They are just distraught.

Countless yuan soldiers died on the way across the moat.

Although they withdrew, the Song army's artillery throwing vehicles at the head of the city did not stop firing.

Ashu's face was already extremely ugly.

He shouted in the chariot: "The army retreats to Xicheng District! Set up the defense line to block the Song army!"

That's all he has, no other choice at all.

I just hope that when all the troops are gathered, it will be good to block those Song troops.The best thing is that those Song soldiers who are still outside the city are all dressed up by ordinary people.

If it can't be stopped, then... I'm afraid the only way to go is to surrender.

The naval warships have been destroyed by the Song army. Apart from surrendering, can they return to the Yuan Dynasty on foot?

Not to mention that the supply of food and grass will not be available, even if it is available, how can they avoid the pursuit of those Song troops behind?

Changle County went overland to the Yuan Dynasty, but it still needed to pass through Fuzhou.

After the soldiers who were able to attack the city retreated, the Yuan army assembled for a while, and immediately retreated towards the depths of Xicheng District.

Ba Gen, Eshier, Hob and other Yuans will receive orders from Ashu to retreat.

They didn't dare to have any hesitation immediately, they didn't care about resisting any more, and hurriedly retreated towards the city with their troops.

Of course, this kind of response speed is extremely fast, which also saved them from the fate of the entire army being wiped out in the outer city.

The Song soldiers who entered the city later failed to encircle them all.

When the encirclement situation was fully formed, Ba Gen and others had already led most of the Yuan army away.However, thousands of people were still cut off and surrounded.

Ba Gen and others did not wave their troops back to rush for help.

These thousands of people are regarded as abandoned soldiers.

Jian Jingshan and others led the soldiers to press forward step by step, and finally close to [-] Song troops firmly surrounded the Yuan troops that could not withdraw.

The sound of gunfire did not last long.

Seeing that Pao Ze did not come back to help, these Yuan troops were disheartened, and quickly chose to abandon their weapons and surrender when they saw no hope.

Bagen, Eshier and other Yuan generals lost countless soldiers under their command.

Some Song Army scouts rushed to the outside of the city to report.

After Lu Yingcai learned that the Yuan army was retreating, she just laughed, and then led A Xinghuang's [-] Liuqiu army towards the city.
