The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 449 Battle of Bingzhou ([-])
The two main generals, one died and the other fled.The Jin army, which had a high proportion of recruits, quickly collapsed.

"The messenger!"

"Subordinates are here."

"The enemy's effective resistance has ceased. Qingqi is dispatched, shouting loudly, those who kneel and surrender will not die!"

"Here!"

"Geng joined the army."

"Great Sima, Geng Teng is here."

"After the battle is over, I will give you 3000 people to count the battlefield and treat the wounded."

"Subordinates take orders."

"Director Meng."

"Huangfu Kai is here."

"Send scouts to the south to find out about Jiexiu's situation. Well, Guowei and I agreed to join forces today, but the meeting is almost over... Also send scouts to look for General You's troops."

Just as Huangfu Kai was about to respond, a scout over there had already galloped over quickly: "Report~~! Da Sima, gentlemen, you just received a report from the scout sent by the right general. Thirty miles to the southeast of this place, we encountered the main force led by the Jin thief and puppet young Fu Du Yuankai, and the two armies have already started fighting!"

Speaking of it, Wang Jun and Pang Ding complained that Du Yu failed to come to the rescue even though it was really wronged Du Yu: he has more than 2 wounded soldiers in his hands, so we can't completely leave them alone, right?Huo Zai and his son in Jiexiu City behind them still have at least [-] troops to dispatch, and it is not so easy to withdraw troops in front of the enemy.It took Du Yuankai less than three days to complete all these, and then quickly led his army north to meet Wang Jun and others.It can be said that it has done well enough.

It's a pity that he was not very lucky. During the rapid march northward, he just ran into the [-] Han army led by Zhao Yi, who was also heading north.

At this time, Du Yu had 3 troops, which was much more than Zhao Yi's troops just by looking at Duitou.But Zhao Yi knew that his elder brother was encircling Wang Jun's [-] men at the moment, so although he knew he was invincible, he still bravely lined up and stood in front of Du Yu's army.

"Guowei's soldiers should be much smaller than Du Yuankai's." After hearing the scout's report, Guan Yi also became anxious.But it's useless to be anxious. Although the overall situation on the battlefield has been settled at this moment, it will still be a while before it is completely over.During this period of time, it is absolutely impossible to send troops on a large scale to support Zhao Yi, otherwise the good situation will be reversed.

And the most troublesome thing for Guan Yi is that he doesn't have any organized cavalry in his hands now!
Ji Han now has a total of 30 standing soldiers, of which [-] are cavalry.This ratio is already high.Not to mention that Ji Han still has two thousand heavy cavalry with frighteningly high maintenance costs.

Of the [-] cavalry, [-] stayed in Longxi to ensure that the Yongliang aliens would not have any small thoughts.Forty thousand followed Jiang Wei in Youzhou.The other [-] were restrained by Liu Yuan in Xihe.So now in other troops of the Han army, of course there are many war horses, but most of them are used by generals, scouts, and messengers.There is no organized cavalry unit.

"Send an order to the right general that the battle on my side will be completely over in half an hour at most. Let him not have to force himself to tighten his forces and move towards where I am, fighting and retreating."

"Here!"

"return!"

"What else does Da Sima want?"

"This is the head of Pang Ding, a general of the Jin army. Take him, and the right general will know what to do when he arrives at the battlefield."

"This subordinate understands, this subordinate will leave!"

Seeing the scouts leaving in a hurry, the generals of the Han army beside them were also very anxious, and even a straight man like Ju Ning suddenly became annoyed: "What are the commander Shi and his son doing? Du Yuankai withdrew from Jiexiu. He should lead the army out of the city! You don’t need to fight in the wild, just hang from a long distance! In this way, as soon as the reinforcements from General Right arrive, they can attack Du Yuankai back and forth!”

"Hey~~ Bo Ding, be careful." Waved his hand to stop Ju Ning's growl: "Uncle Fang is not a timid person. There must be other reasons why he didn't lead his army to follow Du Yuankai."

……

Rewind the time to two days ago.

"Reporting to Changshi, early this morning, our army's lookout post reported that the Jin army under the city has all withdrawn!"

"Oh?" Huo Zai and his son, who had just woken up and were eating, heard the news, and ran up the tower in a hurry without even changing their clothes.

After confirming that the Dazhai of the Jin army was indeed empty, Huo Zai fell into trouble instead.

There is no doubt that the Jin army withdrew all its troops when Jiexiu County was crumbling. This is certainly not a suspicious strategy.Rather, there have been major changes in the nearby battle situation, and the most likely reason is that Guan Yi's main force has returned.

So, what should the Han army in Jiexiu County do now?

"Fei Xiong'er, how many troops can our army mobilize now?"

"More than 2000 people! In addition, there are more than [-] civilians accompanying our army and more than [-] local people in the city."

"Well..." Huo turned around after walking a few steps with his hands behind his back: "Send the order, send out scouts, follow the Jin army brigade all the way, and see how they behave. Go straight all the way to Pingzhou, and see if you can do anything on the road." Can't find Da Sima's troops."

"Here!"

"Father, what do you mean?"

"Jiexiu, after all, is the key to our army's food transshipment. Therefore, even if the Jin army retreats across the board, we still have to leave a strong army to defend here. In this way, our army can mobilize outside the city. It will exceed 2 people."

"What my father said is true, but if we only dispatch 2 people, we will not be able to fight the retreating Jin army. The only thing we can do is to hang the opponent from a distance. After the main force of Da Sima approaches, the two Attack each other!"

"Hmph, Du Yuankai is not a mediocre general, so how could he tolerate us hanging behind him for a long time. Being a father means that if Du Yuankai goes south or west, we will send [-] troops to capture Yangtou Mountain !"

"Hiss~~~Father is so courageous. If Yangtou Mountain is in the hands, then Shangdang County is in my pocket. It's just that father, the retreat of the Jin army will inevitably lead to a decisive battle against Da Sima. At this time, we will not go west. Supporting Da Sima, but heading east to Yangtou Mountain. If this Da Sima feels dissatisfied because of this..."

"Hmph! Why did Zhu Zi think of all these things at such a young age! Listen carefully, my big man has been able to deal with the Wei, Jin, and Eastern Wu with weak national power for decades, not because of these vain things. It’s all hard work! If Shangguan Gao’s displeasure is the first consideration in everything we do, then I’m a big man who would have died long ago!”

"My boy, that's not what I mean. My boy is saying that the Jin army has 10,000+ people. Even if they have lost a lot in the city for more than a month, there are still at least 9 or [-] people, right? Da Sima should deal with it..."

"It doesn't matter. There were 7 people in Da Sima's route, so Liu Yuanhai is just a barbarian. How much damage can he cause to our army? Besides, our army still has 3 troops in Luliang Mountain to help transport food. The two armies joined forces. There are 10 people together. And you also know that our army’s new gun array has been practiced, and all of them are equipped with plate armor. Even if Du Yuankai has 10 people to fight against Da Sima, he will definitely lose. Since the day the army was raised, it has always been the case that fewer troops have won more. In the case of equal strength, any general of my big man, who is afraid of coming?"

"What the father said is true, so the child will go down immediately to prepare the soldiers and horses. Will the father go to fetch the sheep's head mountain himself?"

"Of course, the affairs in the city will be left to you. You have to remember that Jiexiu is a granary, so there must be no loss."

"Here, my son understands. I wish my father every success!"
