Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 729 Chapter 729

Qian Jinhang, who was fighting in Xi Cong, almost fainted when he heard the news of Teng Yun's disappearance. His adjutant had a sharp eye and a quick hand to help him, so as not to embarrass the big Hua general in public.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the situation has taken a turn for the worse. The hundreds of thousands of Dahua troops gathered near Xicong can almost be said to be hanging by a thread.

Even though Qian Jinhang knew that about 20 troops were retreating and gradually approaching the south wind mouth, he was still nervous.

God knows whether the Tang army captured Nanfengkou first, or his retreating troops rushed there first to stabilize their position.

These days, he was waiting for the news, waiting for the news that the 20 troops who followed the order to retreat one after another had indeed arrived at Nanfengkou.

If his troops arrive there first, the Dahua army that has stabilized the back road can be said to have a chance to turn defeat into victory.

But if it was the news that the Tang army captured Nanfengkou first, then he, the Dahua general, would almost have to confess to Xicong.

What hurt him the most was that, after waiting, he still couldn't wait for Feng Kezhi's new order to follow him to retreat.

In other words, in Feng Kezhi's view, withdrawing 20 people from the front line to strengthen the defense of Nanfengkou is already the best choice.

As for giving up Xi Cong, Feng Kezhi never considered it from the beginning to the end: it is very likely that this is some kind of tacit agreement between Feng Kezhi and the emperor Zhao Kai.

That is to say, Emperor Zhao Kai acquiesced to Feng Kezhi's retreat of 20 people to keep the rear of Nanfengkou, and Feng Kezhi acquiesced to His Majesty's strategic plan to continue attacking Xi Cong.

Therefore, Qian Jinhang has been attacking Xi Cong these days, and he knows that this is what he must do.The huge loss made Dahua troops unbearable, and the huge pressure also made Qian Jinhang physically and mentally exhausted.

These days, Qian Jinhang didn't even have a proper meal once. Even though his troops had already controlled more than half of the city, he still thought he had half a foot in the coffin.

Just as Qian Jinhang was sitting in his room in a daze, looking at the map of Xi Cong hanging on the wall in a daze, there was a knock on the door.

"Good news! General! Good news!" An officer pushed open the door of Qian Jinhang's room, and excitedly handed a telegram to the somewhat weak Dahua general.

Like his opponent, Qian Jinhang is also very nervous these days, so nervous that he can't sleep well.Although he moved his headquarters into Xi Cong and found a relatively intact house as a bedroom, he still couldn't guarantee his sleep.

There's no way, it would be really strange if someone could sleep at such a time of life and death.

He accepted the telegram with dark circles, and he was relieved when he saw the news above—although Tang Jun occupied Tengyun, Nanfengkou was saved.

Although this was not what he wanted to see the most, the telegram ordering him to retreat, but Ding Hong foiled an attack by the Tang army at Nanfengkou, the news still sounded very exciting.

The rain outside the room did not know when it had stopped, the sky was still overcast, and the air still smelled of damp.

However, Qian Jinhang was more or less relieved, because it seemed that the Tang army's rampage in the southeastern region of the Dahua Empire had finally been suppressed.

Camping in the wild in rainy weather is more or less suffering, so Qian Jinhang lived in a house on the outskirts of Xicong City.

Fortunately, several houses here were not damaged during the battle, so they became Qian Jinhang's temporary headquarters.Although it is a bit crude, it can at least shelter from the wind and rain.

With these few rooms, Qian Jinhang does not have to endure the noise of rain beating the tent every day, nor does he need to sleep on a small camp bed.

Although it seemed a little unsafe to be too close to the front line, after all, it was impossible for Tang Jun to know Qian Jinhang's position accurately, so the shelling could not be so precise.

In fact, Tang Jun has never fired aimlessly, and those who do so are often the artillerymen of the Dahua Army...

"If our troops return to Nanfengkou, it will be basically safe here." The officer who came to deliver the letter comforted his general with a happy face.

Qian Jinhang nodded slightly, then he stood up and sighed: "Cook me something to eat...I...seem to be a little hungry."

He hasn't eaten well in the past two days, and suddenly feels a little hungry after hearing the good news.

After hearing his words, the adjutant and the captain of the guard were obviously relieved, because Qian Jinhang's condition was really not very good a few days ago.

So everyone quickly got busy, and the general's exclusive chef began to work on the stove next to him, cleaning up all the best ingredients he could find.

Even in a difficult environment, even in the state of marching, there are standards for the meals of a senior general.It's just that no one knows how long this standard can be maintained - when Yuan Shu wanted to drink honey water, he was also beaten by the cook.

At this moment, the Dahua army is far from exhausted, so when Qian Jinhang's food was served, it was still very rich.

The main course was pork, and there was a fish.It is estimated that this fish was caught from the river next to it, and it is still very fresh.

Qian Jinhang, who was in a good mood, immediately felt refreshed after eating a full meal.Then the general, who hadn't slept well for several days in a row, made a simple arrangement and went back to catch up on sleep.

……

On the other side, Redman, who suddenly couldn't sleep well, felt the huge pressure on his shoulders: If he can't take down the south wind port, then the Dahua army may use this south wind port to disrupt the entire battle situation. Revitalized.

Therefore, for him, Nanfengkou must be won in order to continue to carry out the tasks assigned to him by Tang Mo.

Anxious Redman wished he could personally go up to supervise the battle, but soon a bolder plan came from Chang'an.

General Ding Hong of Dahua deployed his defense at Nanfengkou. Obviously, it is impossible to completely capture this important strategic material base of Dahua in a short period of time.

In terms of military strength, after Ding Hong obeyed his orders to gather Tengyun's defenders, he gathered another [-] troops around. Now the number of troops stationed at Nanfengkou is close to [-], and it is not easy to eat them all at once.

Even if Redman tried his best to gather together, the troops he could muster to attack Nanfengkou in a short period of time were only [-] to [-] troops, which was obviously not enough for street fighting.

What's more, according to previous intelligence calculations, more than [-] Dahua troops who retreated from Xicong are returning to defend Nanfengkou. Once this army enters Nanfengkou, it will be even more impossible to continue to seize Nanfengkou. up.

Time is obviously on the side of the Great China Empire, as long as Ding Hong persists for a day or two, the situation will become very unfavorable to the Great Tang Kingdom.

However, he is not very familiar with this delicate situation, but Tang Mo is all too familiar: the enemy army is trapped in a city, and there are a lot of reinforcements outside...

Isn't this what a certain rabbit is best at fighting for aid?Tang Mo, who heard the news, immediately realized that this might be an opportunity!
So he immediately sent a telegram to Redman, ordering him to take advantage of the favorable situation that the Dahua army was eager to hold the south wind mouth and evacuate the surrounding troops. Dahua reinforcements at Nanfengkou!
This is a bold plan, but it is quite feasible!The armored troops of the Tang Kingdom may not be so advantageous in attacking well-fortified cities, but they can be said to be professional counterparts when attacking enemy troops on the road in a field state.

Compared with the rabbit's light infantry interspersed with encirclement and annihilation battles, Tang Mo's armored troops interspersed with frontal collisions was more concise and clear.

"Your Majesty is still Your Majesty after all." Looking at Tang Mo's unconstrained plan, Redman really couldn't say anything other than admiration.

This general who is known as a famous general in the world is actually a bit arrogant. Speaking of which, even Feng Kezhi has never taken him seriously.

But every time he heard something new from Tang Mo, it would make him feel shocked.

He really doesn't know how the head of His Majesty the king is so long. After designing so many advanced weapons, his understanding of tactics can reach such a high level.

Of course, Redman didn't know that Tang Mo's tactics were also copied by a real tactician, so he was really shocked or shocked.

If the Tang army's armored troops defeated the Dahua army that returned to defend Nanfengkou, it would buy more time for attacking Nanfengkou.For the armored troops in Redman's hands, this is really much easier than storming the south wind.

After defeating Dahua's returning troops, it would be easier to turn the guns and return to deal with Nanfengkou. At that time, almost all the follow-up infantry of the Tang army had arrived, and it would be much easier to storm Nanfengkou.

What's more, Redman feels that it is still a question mark how much courage the Dahua troops guarding at Nanfengkou will have to continue fighting to the death after hearing the news of the destruction of the reinforcements.

Knock the mountain to shake the tiger, kill the chicken to warn the monkey, I hope that the Dahua general Ding Hong who is guarding Nanfengkou can really swear his loyalty to the death and stick to it until the last moment.

"Urge the follow-up supply convoy and let them arrive at the predetermined position as soon as possible! All armored units, as well as mixed combat teams, after the supply is completed, carry as much fuel and ammunition as possible and bypass the south wind outlet!" Lei Deman pinched the telegram Tang Mo sent him, and issued a series of orders.

More than an hour later, Tang Jun's vanguard chose a relatively concealed distance and began to bypass the south wind.

Because the nearby Dahua troops had been transferred to Nanfengkou, and they implemented the policy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields, and even took away all the nearby civilians...so they hardly noticed the large-scale transfer of the Tang army this time.

Interestingly, at this time, Ding Hong is resting, Qian Jinhang is sleeping, and Dahua's frontline commanders are all dreaming their own sweet dreams...
