The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 321 Put it back again

The pouring rain was accompanied by dark clouds all over the sky, and the occasional flashes of lightning and thunder disturbed the chaos of the eight-hundred-mile swamp. In this huge swamp, the foot of Qinglong Mountain protruded from the water. In the middle of the day, it was like a beast in the prehistoric period. In the darkness, its huge body remained motionless, weathering the wind and rain, firm and terrifying.

Since Li Lei raised his troops, the rebels have been in a dangerous place and have defeated officers and soldiers several times, especially since they attacked Shangqiu City, their momentum has become even more powerful.

Especially now, everyone feels that they have become a big deal, and they seem to be more powerful characters than Liang Shan and Fang La back then.

In the battle of Langya Ridge, why it lost is still a mystery in the eyes of many people.

The main force of the rebel army broke through from the interception of the local government army. For the whole night after that, some leaders fought hard to organize the army and fled for a whole night.

It was not until the next morning that they gathered in the Jiangjunling area one after another. Thinking of how high-spirited everyone was here just half a month ago, it really feels like a world away.

Afterwards, it was slightly consolidated in Jiangjunling. At this time, the number of people counted was less than 5.

Among the people who disappeared, more than half were dead, some were captured, and some were left behind while fleeing all the way. We can only hope that they will gather one after another in the future, or go back to the rebels on their own.Among these people, it is likely that some of them began to feel discouraged by the rebels. They did not have family members to tie them down, and it was not impossible for them to run away by falling behind.

After this battle, from the beginning of the tailwind to the final loss of more than [-] troops, it seemed like a farce, but at this time there was not enough time for them to stop and do a review.

The rebels ran out from the weird nightmare of Langya Ridge, but the aftertaste was still fermenting. Even if you think about the problem with your knees, you can think that the eagle dog of the imperial court will not stop at this time. Will gather the power at hand, taking advantage of the rebel army's emptiness.Make a strong attack.

This can be regarded as one ebb and flow.

The icy state of affairs was before them, and at the same time, in front of everyone in the rebel army, there was also an extremely despondent status quo.The more than 1000 people who have been integrated at the moment may not be fully usable in military spirit. It will not be possible to bring them back to their original state overnight.And the most troublesome thing is that there may still be a considerable number of people who have been instigated during the mingling period.

But it is impossible to clean up on the spot.This kind of thing can only be done when the battle is won. The more the battle is lost, the more the majesty of the top will be reduced, while the people below will become more united. On the rebel team with loyalty as the centripetal force, they still want to clean up at this time, waiting for the top Those big bosses are the mutiny and rebellion of these heroes from the three mountains and five mountains.

In a serious situation, you can only temporarily turn a blind eye to these troublesome things.

It started to rain heavily in the early hours of the morning, and the evacuation of the rebels stopped. Xi Maijun and others paid attention to the morale of the army, but in fact, the morale of the army is still very good...or maybe it is very good.

Soldiers, leaders, and family members who have not been on the battlefield are all curious about how Dulonggang was defeated.

Some of them were well-informed, and most of them knew that the attack on Dulonggang went smoothly in the first few days, but only the leaders of the army and the soldiers who participated in the war knew about the sudden turnaround.But the soldiers who returned to the rebel army almost all chose to remain silent to the people around them, and kept silent about what happened, but such an effect.In fact, it comes from the apprehension and fear in my heart.

When faced with the test of life and death, the individual in the game began to choose the game principle of rational consideration for the overall situation, and finally appeared in the rebels. In a sense, it can indeed give people a little comfort .

"At least if we really want to fight, the morale of the army is still available. Everyone's family members are on the rebel army. Most of them don't want the rebel army to collapse." The murderer Zheng Xiu said at this time.

There were many chiefs sitting in the room, and when the door was opened, the wind and rain were blowing in, making the burning torches flutter.

Behind the desk, Xi Maijun propped his forehead, and said with some pain: "The Battle of Langya Ridge, after all, was almost exhausted. Even if people were transferred from the mountain, not many people would come. If what the eagle dog of the court said was true Yes, the local government army will send troops, but in my opinion, they are not so resolute. As long as we can defeat the local government army head-on in the first battle, given the terrain of the rebel army, we will be able to hold it after all."

"I still don't know how that person will make moves, but as long as we can win the first battle, we can take advantage of the victory and start to purge the morale of the army. From then on, it will be smooth sailing. In short, everything must be done towards this point." Everyone listened carefully to what he said, Xi Maijun pondered for a moment, then continued.

"The thousands of people under Chief Zheng's command, and the 5000 of our left-behind rebels are still in morale. The total of 1 people will not be too big a problem to hold because of the favorable location." Bian Ze interjected at this time.

"You can do a big ceremony for the dead brother to boost morale..." Li Lei thought for a while and said softly.

Since Langya Ridge was withdrawn, everyone has been working intensively, preparing for possible attacks, how to defend the surrounding hills, which leader is better, how to control public opinion on the hills, and estimate the opponent's offensive etc.

In fact, it is about how to rely on geographical advantages to defend officers and soldiers or the enemy.There are already countless countermeasures above the rebels.At this time, if I think about it a hundred times, I still can't think of a flower, but now that the situation is unclear, I should do more.Everyone's hearts are just a little more at ease.

Distributing their tasks to a group of leaders, telling the people who stayed behind the rebels that this was just an unexpected setback, and doing all the preparations that can be done intensively, this is also the best way to boost morale .

"The brothers who left the team and were separated on the road before, gathered hundreds of people this morning, but among them, some were released by the eagle dogs of the court. Commander Zheng settled them down together, and let the little one When he came back and asked what to do, he also asked the younger one to bring a few people to ask the leader and the military adviser." A messenger stood in front of Xi Maijun and reported to Xi Maijun the tasks that Zheng Xiu had arranged for him.

Hearing the news in the conference hall, Xi Maijun's hands trembled, and he looked at Li Lei. Although it was urgent, he knew it in his heart. gone?"
