Xian Dynasty Era

Chapter 468 Wei Fu
In the camp of the Chinese army——

At that time, a dark-skinned Jin general with beards hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Zhao, our army is here to confront the Soviet and Wei allied forces. I don't know if there is any talk in the country, when will we send troops to help?"

Zhao Jian pondered for a while, and said: "This commander has sent someone to convey the general's feelings to Yidu. Your Majesty's intention is to let this commander stand by and wait for help. When the spring of next year, Yi will send troops to help."

After Zhao Quji's defeat, Zhao Jian reported the defeat of the frontline army to King Jin through the channel of Heart Demon Sect.

However, the Jin court caused an uproar, and the words of withdrawing troops can be said to be very loud.

Jin Jun also had a big headache, he had been arguing for three days, and in the end, it was the words of the former general Wei Wujiu, the Shangqing of Jin, which calmed down the argument of the Duke.

"If our country withdraws its troops, the remnant guards will be unable to support them alone. Our country's waste of money and food is unimaginable, and more than [-] generals and schools will be damaged. Is it to make wedding dresses for other countries?"

"Wait, go out of the tent quickly to appease your soldiers, and tell them that as long as you persist for another month, the country will massively increase its troops!" Zhao Jian said in a low voice with an indifferent expression.

His opinion is the same as the former general Wei Wujiu's, and it's not as simple as wasting effort and giving up halfway.

Zhao Jian's thinking went even deeper.

"Once the army retreats, with the power of the Su State and the heroism of the Marquis of Su... the soldiers of the four counties under Wei Pan, who are alone, will certainly not be able to stop the Marquis Su from sweeping the counties of the State of Wei. Dozens of counties, if our country wants to enter Zhongzhou again, it will definitely pay a higher price! As long as we stick to the land of several counties, we will wait for reinforcements, Marquis Su"

"Mr. Zhao, don't say a month, even half a month. None of the generals and school can hold on." At that time, a Jin general said with a bitter face.

Another Jin general took over the conversation, and said worriedly: "Da Sima Zhao, the morale of the army is fluctuating and morale is low. If the Soviet and Wei allied forces take advantage of it again, it will be a disaster."

In the military tent, for a while, there was a lot of chatter, all kinds of complaints.

When Zhao Jian was victorious, when did such a thing happen?

Now, it was nothing more than the fact that Zhao Jian had lost two battles, so he couldn't suppress the opposition.

Zhao Jian's face was gloomy, and Bo Ran said angrily, "According to your wishes, I'm waiting for the handsome teacher to come. Do I have to give up halfway?"

As he said that, he pulled out the three-foot long sword from his waist and said coldly: "Jun Jun has the right to act cheaply, and if he wants to quit, don't blame me for punishing the crime of disturbing the morale of the army!"

For a moment, the faces of all the generals changed, and they dared not speak again.

At this moment, the Jin general in the military tent realized that even if the person in front of him suffered two defeats, he was still a minister trusted by the King of Jin, with the power of life and death.

Seeing that the generals were intimidated, Zhao Jian calmed down and said: "Masters, many of them used to defend the northern border and fought bitterly with the Rong and Di outside the pass. Although the situation is difficult now, it is still far behind when compared to that time. Why? A heart of fear?"

In the military tent, all the generals couldn't help showing shame on their faces.

"Mr. Zhao, the last general will go back to appease the soldiers." At this time, a Jin general cupped his fists and said.

The other generals also spoke in twos and threes.

However, at this moment, a military academy outside ran over with a panicked expression, and said, "Commander, General Wei Fu has sent someone to deliver an urgent military report!"

"Where are people?" Zhao Jian's face changed slightly, and he felt a bad feeling in his heart, and asked anxiously.

Not long after, a young lieutenant led a ragged general who was soaked in blood into the military tent. His body was filled with a pungent bloody smell. When he saw Zhao Jian, he said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. In Ganyuan County, General Fu was caught by the Qi army's trick to lure troops, and the [-] troops were ambushed. General Wei Fu led only a few hundred cavalry to fight out, and now he has rushed to Gu'an County."

When Zhao Jian heard the bad news, he almost felt dizzy, and asked, "Why did your general come out so lightly? This commander strictly ordered him not to act rashly. Why did he send troops without authorization?"

"Mr. Zhao, the army's rations are insufficient. General Wei went to rob Qi's rations, so he was ambushed."

Speaking of which, all of this is still related to Su's defeat of Zhao Quji's department and the sending of cavalry to cut off the Jin army's food road.

Duke Huan of Qi State heard that after Suhou defeated the two armies of Han and Zhao, he followed the advice of the mastermind and stopped working hard. The second county of Changle.

Otherwise, the people of Weiguo in the two counties and seventeen counties will only be dissatisfied.

It just so happened that Wei Fu, the left general, was short of food in the army because of the unfavorable transfer of food roads.

Prince Huan carefully arranged a plan, and with the help of the people from the Dragon Palace, he led Wei Fu, who was eager to find food, into a trap.

At this moment, in the military tent, all the advanced generals who had heard the bad news looked at each other in dismay, all looking at the ashen-faced and distraught Zhao Jian.

The destruction of Wei Fu's [-] Jin troops along the way made it worse for Zhao Jian today.

The question just now came up again!
To retreat or not to retreat?

Before waiting for the generals in the army tent, they discussed about the size of Chou Yinmao, and the generals and school soldiers who were gathering outside the army tent also got the news of Wei Fu's defeat.

For a while, the crowd was raging, and the noise became even worse.

Since the Jin army came out of Heshuo, it has successively gathered 30 million troops, but only 11 soldiers remained, which can be said to have been damaged by more than half of them.

"Mr. Zhao..."

In the military tent, all Jin generals said in unison.

Zhao Jian was silent for a long time, with no expression of joy or anger on his face, and said: "Whether to retreat or not, we still need to report to the king to decide! Besides, this commander will ask the king for guilt! Gentlemen, the situation is critical, please take the overall situation as a priority." Heavy, appease the soldiers, and wait for the king's orders from Yidu."

Up to now, whether to retreat or defend, he is no longer the one who can decide.

This is already related to the overall national strategic direction of Jin soldiers entering Zhongzhou.

And this national war has been fought until now, no matter what, he, as the commander in chief, cannot absolve himself of the blame.

And just when the Jin army camp was gloomy and gloomy.

Gu'an County, in the county government——

The official hall was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, but it was the generals and schools of Su and Wei who were discussing the military situation.

Su Zhao led a group of Su generals, sitting on both sides with Wu Shoulie, besides that, there was Li Fei Wei Jing.

Wu Shou's face was excited, and he praised: "Young Master Huan really lives up to his reputation, he wiped out [-] Jin troops in one battle!"

Su Zhao said: "After this battle, only Zhao Jian is left in the Jin army. The veterans are exhausted and their morale is low. There is nothing to be afraid of! The Jin army has soldiers at the moment, and they have surrounded the tent of the Chinese army commander and asked to retreat. I want to come to Zhao Jian. It's already exhausted."

At this moment, the Jin army still has 11 soldiers, while Wei Pan's guard army has 20 to [-] soldiers, and the total number of troops on both sides is over [-].

The total strength of the Soviet-Western Allied Forces is 27, which is completely superior in terms of strength.

"Speaking of which, Su Hou's strategy yesterday is really like an antelope's horns." Wu Shou praised.

At this moment, the situation of offense and defense is different, and Wu Shou's worries are naturally reduced a lot.

Su Zhao smiled and said: "This kind of strategy is just icing on the cake. Even if it is not used properly, it will backfire. Now the Jin army's morale is low, and it is effective."

Today, at dawn, he secretly sent Tian Tingsi's scouts to infiltrate Zhou Fang of the Jin army's camp, and disturb the hearts of the Jin army with the Jin songs he learned.

I didn't expect that it would cause a commotion from the soldiers so soon.

It can only be said that the Jin army at this moment is at the end of its strength and frightened.

Su Zhao said in a deep voice: "Based on Zhao Jian's mind, he wants to stand in a stalemate with us and wait for reinforcements from the country. If he will not retreat, we need to help him make up his mind."

Wu Shou's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What does Marquis Su mean?"

At this time, Hua Liang cast his sharp eyes, but thinking about the defeat and capture of the army that day, at this moment, it is inevitable that he has some complicated thoughts.

"Wu Sima, General Hua, the morale of the Jin army is low now, and our army is ready to attack the Jin army camp." Su Zhao said.
