Horse on the World

Chapter 946

The horse's hoof stepped on the blood-soaked ground, and the originally hard soil was soaked into a little softness. When it was lifted up, it was already stained with red soil, like a red flower.Holding a mace, Guo Shanfeng slowly patrolled the battlefield. This time, he repeated his old trick, storming Tacheng, luring the Pinglu enemy army closest to Tacheng to rescue them, and ambush them halfway. Ambush, defeating the enemy who came to help Pinglu in one fell swoop.
"General!" Jiang Hei Niu excitedly galloped over, "General, this battle was fought happily."
Guo Shanfeng smiled slightly, "Li Feng and Fei Yanggu chased after?"
Jiang Heiniu nodded, "The enemy army suffered heavy losses in Pinglu, and it is a good time for us to take it. After taking Pinglu, we can rush back to Qinzhou and rescue General Guan."

Guo Shanfeng smiled and said: "That's right, Hei Niu, you and Xiong Hailing set off immediately, rush to Pinglu, and send someone to tell Li Feng and Fei Yanggu not to run too fast. stopped."

Jiang Hei Niu's eyes lit up, "The general means that the enemy will definitely come after him again? Impossible!"

"Why is it impossible?" Guo Shanfeng raised the mace in his hand and danced in the air.
"General, the same strategy has made them suffer twice? The incident is only three, and the enemy is not stupid, so how can they still suffer this loss with their eyes open?" Jiang Heiniu said.

hum!Guo Shanfeng sneered, "Isn't it okay if he doesn't come? He doesn't come to watch me capture Pinglu and open the passage to Qinzhou? Knowing that there is a problem, he has no choice but to come. Don't say the third time, it will be the fourth time." The first time, the fifth time, he still has to come. But he will be more careful when he comes out."
"What he wants is to hold me back!" Guo Shanfeng slammed the mace on the ground, "He wanted to hold me back, but he knew it was a trap and had to jump down. It is clear that the battle of chariots, if he comes, I will fight with him, if he does not come, I will take Pinglu."

"The general is brilliant!" Jiang Heiniu was convinced. Thinking about it carefully, Wanli, who is currently stationed in Changhua, really has no choice.

Wanli really had no choice. When Guo Shanfeng was leading his troops towards Pinglu, Wanli, who was beating his chest, knew that Guo Shanfeng would be waiting for him on the way, but he still had no choice. have to go.
"General, we know it's a pit, but we still want to jump?" The deputy general was puzzled.
Wanli sighed, "Guoshanfeng is clear about the car battle. Now that we know it, it is not a pit, but a dignified battle. What we have left behind is our relying on the city wall."
"We have no chance of winning in a head-to-head confrontation!"

"Yes, so we can walk slowly. Guo Shanfeng will wait patiently when he knows we have come out." Wanli said slowly.

Guo Shanfeng waited for Wanli in Taoshan for two days, but it didn't mean that Wanli came. The news brought back by the sentry was that Wanli led the army to turn suddenly on the way and retreated to Changhua. After arriving in Changhua, Wanli didn't stop, and directly led the remaining army to abandon Changhua, and the whole army retreated.
The sudden change made all the generals of the Dingzhou army, including Guo Shanfeng, a little confused. What is Wanli going to do?Abandoning Changhua is equivalent to giving up the whole Qingzhou.
Gathered around Guo Shanfeng, many generals watched their officers.
"There is only one situation!" Guo Shanfeng sat under a tree, and after thinking hard for half a day, he suddenly stood up. "Bozhou, a major breakthrough has been made in the Bazhou war zone."
Jiang Heiniu, Xiong Hailing, Li Feng, and Buyangu are all able to understand at one point, "Qingtan!"

"That's right, we must have captured Qingtan." Guo Shanfeng waved his hand and said, "If we take Qingtan Fortress, our navy can go straight up the Lai River. But the battleship is unimpeded, and Laihe falls into my hands, which means that Qiu Zhi in Bazhou may be completely cut off by us in Bozhou, which will threaten Qu Yongjie's army attacking Qinzhou!"
"Great!" Jiang Hei Niu beamed with joy, "We have won this battle."

"General, Wan Li has escaped, we can easily take Pinglu, and the enemy troops of Chenghua and Tacheng cannot let them slip away." Xiong Dehai slapped his thigh.
"No, we should take Pinglu immediately, and then rush to rescue Qinzhou. I'm afraid General Guan won't be able to hold on." Li Feng retorted.

Guo Shanfeng didn't speak, he stood up and walked to the side, holding a big tree with one hand, bowed his head in thought, all eyes turned to him.
"General, why hesitate?" Li Feng took a step forward and said loudly, "General, if we set off earlier, we might be able to save General from the crisis!"
Guo Shanfeng turned around slowly, looked at Li Feng, "Where is Wanli going? He is retreating in the wrong direction! You, come here." Guo Shanfeng ignored Li Feng, but stretched out his hand to call for the sentry, " Tell me again, in which direction did Wanli retreat?"
The sentry repeated the direction in which Wanli left.

Guoshanfeng shouted loudly: "Map!"
With a bang, the soldiers took out the map and spread it on the ground. Guo Shanfeng squatted down and stared at the map.

"Pass the general!" Li Feng shouted loudly.He stomped his feet anxiously.
Guo Shanfeng suddenly raised his hand, signaling Li Feng to shut up, "Where is Wanli going?" He murmured.
"Where can he go? Isn't he fleeing to Xingzhou? Could it be that he jumped to Bazhou?"
Guo Shanfeng suddenly poked down with his finger, "That's right, he is going to Bazhou! You all come here."

A group of generals immediately surrounded them and squatted on the ground together, looking at the map with a small hole poked by the mountain wind.

In Changhua, Wanli looked at Yuan Fang with a heavy face, and said, "Duke Yuan, I'm leaving now!"
For a few days, Yuan Fang seemed to be more than ten years old, and his whole body looked even thinner. He looked at Wan Li and said, "General Wan, you must rush to the manger as soon as possible, and hold it firmly. Qingtan is lost." , the Lai River is out of control, General Qiu has no other way but to retreat from here, and the enemy troops in other places will throw in large troops through waterways at any time to block it."
"Yes, Yuan Gong!" Wan Li replied, looking at Yuan Fang, "If you lose Bozhou and Laihe, we, our situation may not be good. General Qu who entered Qinzhou?"
Yuan Fang sighed, "There is no other way. There is no other way but to retreat. Abandon Bazhou, Qinzhou, Xingzhou, and Suzhou. Pingzhou is our last choice. After a moment of hesitation, Hundreds of thousands of troops will be blocked, and that will be the end of the entire army. I will go to Xingzhou first and make all the preparations. As soon as General Qu arrives in Xingzhou, we must leave immediately."
Wanli lowered his head dejectedly, "Mr. Yuan, if you lose Xingzhou and Suzhou again, how can you defend Pingzhou?"
Yuan Fang was speechless, just clasped his fists and said: "General Wan, treasure, what I am most worried about now is Guoshanfeng, that is a dog with a keen sense of smell, if he smells the smell and gets news, he will definitely rush over Going down to the manger, there are nearly 10 horses for General Qiu, if we can’t return, we will have another broken arm.”
"I see!"
"It should be two days late for Guo Shanfeng to get the news. In two days, it is enough for us to rush to the manger and set up our defenses." Wan Li said.
"I hope so, in fact, I hope he will go to fight Pinlu, return to Dingzhou, and rescue Qinzhou City, but it may be the case for another Dingzhou commanding general. Over the mountain wind, hey, it is unlikely, you To be prepared for a fierce battle with him, you only need to defend until General Qiu's army and horses retreat to the manger, and the two sides join forces, with General Qiu's ability to use troops, he will be able to lead you back together."
"yes."
"I'm waiting for you in Xingzhou!"
"treasure!"

Taoshan, Guo Shanfeng excitedly said: "Qingtan is lost, what will Qiu Zhi do? Run! He has only one way to go, Qiu Zhi is the old fox, seeing Lu Dalin confronting him for so long, you can see that he didn't take advantage of it at all. Who is Lu Dalin? He has been a veteran who has been fighting for most of his life! No matter how he runs, Laihe is now in our hands, and we can send troops through the navy to block him in Bazhou at any time. He has only one way!" Shanfeng pointed to the place where he had poked a hole, "Get off the manger, Wanli went there, this is to ensure that Qiu Zhi can withdraw from here smoothly."
Jiang Hei Niu looked at Guo Shanfeng: "The general means, let's go to the manger!"

Guo Shanfeng stood up abruptly, "Yes, go to the manger, Li Feng, Buyangu, you each choose [-] elite cavalry from the two battalions of cavalry, and each of the other cavalry gives up a horse. Each rider has three riders, and if you change horses without changing people, even if you eat and drink, you will deal with it immediately, and make up for the distance that has been lost in the past two days."

"Yes." The two knights said loudly.They exchanged glances at each other, "General!"
Guo Shanfeng smiled, "Li Feng is in command, Bu Yanggu is in charge. Hurry up."

The two generals quickly turned around and left, Xiong Dehai hesitated, "General, what about General Guan?"

Guo Shanfeng was silent for a moment, "If Qinzhou can't hold it, even if we take down Pinglu, it's too late to go. This time, I made a big mistake and almost ruined the entire Qinzhou. Dehai, Hei Niu, you guys I have been following me for the longest time, and I don't want to hide it from you. If we don't make a great contribution this time, we may not be able to spare me when we meet the Lord in the future. And our entire army will also be affected. After this battle, Luoyang is gone, and the rest is just a matter of time, if because of my problem, when we attack Luoyang in the future, we may not get a chance, you guys, are you willing?"
Both Xiong Dehai and Jiang Heiniu fell silent, "So, we can only atone for our sins and block Qiu Zhi's army in Bozhou. This is an army of nearly [-] troops. If we take them down, we will cut off Luoyang's arm." , when I meet the lord in the future, I can explain it to you!"

"Old Guan, I hope he can hold on." Guo Shanfeng said in a low voice.

Li Qing was on his way to Yizhou, when he received that Qingtan was under control, the navy was doing its best to dredge the river, clearing away Qiu Zhi's shipwreck and iron piles, clearing the way for the navy to enter the Laihe River.

A smile appeared on Li Qing's face, the overall situation was settled.
