Chapter 52
Lu Xiao was awakened by the sound of fighting.He suddenly turned over and sat up. It was the fifth day that the army had entered the mountain. How could there be fighting sounds here?
The key is where Lu Xiao is, or the logistics camp.Although he is now a general flag, and has been registered.But the soldiers in the camp all have masters.There is no one under him at all, and he does not know which camp he belongs to.So I just stayed in Lu Wenzhao's logistics camp to recuperate.

"What's the matter?" Lu Xiao asked while holding a soldier running over.

"Master, there are Tartars attacking the camp."

Lu Xiao's expression changed slightly, and he immediately followed up with the knife.

It must be said here that Lu Xiao never really wanted to change the outcome of this war.Because it can't be changed at all.The failure of the war was rooted in the decay of the Ming Dynasty.This is not something he can change as a forest hunter.

He took the scout team to make credit before, just to give himself a certain background.But now it seems that what he has done seems to have caused a certain butterfly effect.Unfortunately, it's bad, not good.

During the melee, some people shouted loudly that General Du was dead and the front line was defeated.Everyone, run away.

Lu Xiao followed the sound, then froze for a moment.He originally thought it was the Tartars who were spreading rumors and disturbing the morale of the army.But rushed over to take a look, only to find that it turned out to be a Ming army soldier.

With a bang, Lu Xiao punched him hard in the abdomen, hitting the opponent into a shrimp.

"Say, who made you shout like that?"

Lu Xiao asked with a knife on the other's neck.

"Sir. It's not a small shout, it's really lost. I just escaped from the front line."

"Fart, I haven't seen Tartars yesterday. The [-]-strong army was defeated in less than a day? We have already learned the layout of all the camps in advance. How could it be so easy to defeat?"

"No, sir, I really don't know. I just saw that there are Tartars everywhere. As soon as the fight started, General Du was surrounded by Tartars, and we had to run away."

He didn't finish the rest, because Lu Xiao had already cut his throat with a knife.It was directed at him in his camp and shouted that if his family was defeated, he would have to die in the army.

Maybe his intentions are good.I thought this would save a few colleagues.But what he didn't know was that the more this happened, the faster the remaining Ming army would die.

After cutting down a few tartars that rushed in, Lu Xiao finally found Lu Wenzhao after some searching.

"Lu Guard, it's true that the front line is defeated."

"It really can't be more true."

"How is General Du?"

"Okay, but the head is gone."

"Fuck!!!!"

This was the only thought in Lu Xiao's mind.The reason why he was in a hurry to ask Lu Wenzhao to give him the position of the chief soldier was because he knew that Jun Jun was unlikely to survive in this war.Just in case, we need to quickly settle things down.

It's just that he didn't expect that his own operation would actually accelerate Juniper's downfall.It really made him feel a little magical.But when you think about it, it makes sense.Because the late Ming Dynasty is itself a magical era.

"Burn grain and grass." Lu Xiao said after thinking for a while.

"what?"

"Since the front line has been defeated, it is impossible to hold it here. Burning all the food and grass cannot be left to the Tartars."

In history, even if the Tartars won the battle of Sarhu, they could not immediately attack the Central Plains.It is because they are extremely scarce.In the battle of Sarhu, Nurhaci was actually betting on his country's luck.The key is that this fellow finally won the bet.

After the Battle of Sarhu, the Tartars seized countless supplies, which enabled them to survive the most difficult winter.Since then, the Ming Dynasty has actually been unable to confront the Tartars head-on.

Lu Wenzhao also understood what Lu Xiao meant.Then he called his own guards.

"Take the kerosene, go to the baggage camp, and burn all the baggage. Listen, not a grain of rice can be left for Tartar."

"Yes!" A group of guards led the way.At this time, a lot of Tartars had already rushed in.

At this time, the Ming army in the logistics camp was already terrified.Everywhere is a picture of a Tartar chasing more than a dozen Ming soldiers.Seeing Lu Xiao was helpless and heartbroken.

Lu Wenzhao is also a master of swordsmanship. Together, the two quickly strangled a group of tartarians who rushed in.There were also a dozen or so skilled soldiers around.

"Lu Guarding, where are our supervisors along the way?"

Lu Wenzhao was not stupid and immediately thought of the crux of the problem.They have been defeated all the way, and even the general soldier has died.These little pawns below, I am afraid that there will be no good end.

If the superintendent also died, it would be completely over.At that time, other high-level executives will take advantage of the situation and put all the blame on this road.

"Follow me." Lu Wenzhao shouted and rushed towards the guard's tent.

The superintendent of Du Song's journey was named Guo Zhen.At this time, I was in a hurry to pack my things and prepare to run away.But at this time the outside was already in chaos, and he didn't understand swordsmanship.Just a few steps out of the door, he was knocked down.

Fortunately, at this time, Lu Xiao and others arrived in time.Otherwise, this eunuch of the military supervisor is afraid that he will be trampled to death by his own people.

"Guo Jianjun, we have already lost this way. Now we need to retreat quickly and come with us."

Guo Zhen shouted in disbelief.

"How did you lose? How did you lose? Tens of thousands of people, how did you lose?"

"It is said that the rest of the army did not arrive in time for support."

This is what Lu Xiao said.He doesn't actually know the real situation, but at this time, the real situation doesn't really matter.Anyway, in the end, it is impossible for the emperor to know the truth.

The key is to be as clear of responsibility as possible.He said this now to leave a subconscious impression on Guo Zhen.The army was defeated because the rest of the troops did not provide timely support.

In fact, this is similar to what is recorded in history.Originally, Jun Jun should cooperate with another general soldier, Marin's troops, to attack Sar Hu.But Marin didn't arrive.

There wasn't any special reason, and in fact even the group behind Marin couldn't find a reasonable reason for Marin to be late after the war.Finally came a vague tactic, that is, it was Juniper who delayed the fighter plane.Anyway, at that time, Juniper was already dead, and the dead would not have excuses.On the contrary, some records of the Manchu Qing Dynasty later, the records are more true.

The group protected Guo Zhen and rushed out of the camp, and was soon noticed by a group of Tartars.The crowd was in a bloody battle.During the period, a hundred households with good skills also joined the team.

Lu Xiao glanced sideways, and coincidentally, he was the protagonist again.

"In the sinking training, there are hundreds of households under the command of General Du."

"Under Lu Wenzhao, Du Zongbing's guards, this is the superintendent Guo Zhen Guo, this is Lu Xiao and Lu Zongqi."

In the end, only Lu Xiao and a dozen other soldiers were left to break out of the siege.They stood on the top of a hill not far away, looking at the camp that was raging in flames.Everyone was silent.

After a long time, Lu Wenzhao spoke again.

"Tens of thousands of lives were lost just like mowing the grass. I'm afraid I've lost this battle."

Lu Xiao stood aside and interjected.

"It's not just the war that loses!"
