Chapter 857 The Imperial Capital Ordered, the Army Retreated
"Send an order, each department suspends the offensive, and the troops that are too advanced will immediately retreat."
"I would rather give up some of the occupied areas and build a defense line with the main army, waiting for the next military order."
When Bai Qi ordered the Central Corps to suspend the attack and build a line of defense.
In less than half an hour, such a similar military order came from the left-wing army and the right-wing army headquarters.
The meaning is simple and clear. All parts of the scattered army will be concentrated to prepare for the incoming storm.
Obviously, Ying Ji and Zhao Yong both realized the seriousness of the situation after receiving the highest-level secret from the East Factory.
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly issued an order for the army to suspend the offensive and conduct active defense first.
…
"Your Majesty, Wu Anjun and the others are in trouble."
The imperial capital of Xianyang, in the palace of Xianyang!
After receiving Bai Qi's report, Zhao Gao, the Marquis of Shangyong of the Great Qin, who was always concerned about the progress of the war, hurriedly forwarded it to Yingji.
"Yes, in the face of strong third-party interference, choosing to concentrate superior forces and shrinking the front to actively defend is definitely the right decision."
"It's just a little bit of territory, don't worry about it."
"Return it to them first, anyway, the empire will double it back sooner or later."
Sweeping away the secret report submitted by Zhao Gao, Ying Ji said without caring.
Originally, Ying Ji thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be nothing more than that.
Regarding Bai Qi and Ying Ji's abilities, Ying Ji can be said to be a hundred reassured, so there is no need to worry about this matter, and even if he stops paying attention.
Little do they know that this reaction really made Zhao Gao smile bitterly.
"At such a critical juncture, you still have a calm face, Your Majesty, your heart is really big."
But thinking about it this way, Zhao Gao never dared to say it.
He could only ask cautiously, "Now that the difficulty of the war has increased, does Your Majesty plan to increase troops?"
Yes, the increase in troops is Zhao Gao's opinion on this.
According to common sense, once the difficulty of the war increases, it is necessary to send more reinforcements to increase the odds of winning after the war enters the stalemate stage. Therefore, Zhao Gao's opinion is also a normal suggestion after focusing on the overall situation.
"No, they can handle this trivial matter, Wu An-Jun."
"He is stronger than he is, and the breeze blows the hills."
"There are Mr. Guigu and the others who are in charge of the overall situation. No matter how the frontline changes, they can't shake my Great Qin Ruishi.
Ying Ji waved his hand and rejected Zhao Gao's proposal to increase troops.
Now that more than three months have passed, the biological crisis in Shenzhou Great World has been quelled, and the Qin army's military power has been released to a certain extent.
Counting the imperial military power in the local world and the southern region of Xuantian, Ying Ji still holds ten C-type standing army corps and one forbidden army, a total of eleven corps.
If you really grit your teeth, you can pull up a part, but it's really not necessary.
After all, the security patrols and city guards in the vast territory also require a certain amount of military strength, and blind allocation may be counterproductive.
"Shangyonghou, tell Wu Anjun and the others, since they have decided to shrink the front line, they must do it well."
"You don't need to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, and you can also be in vain with Xuantian's forces."
"In short, we must stabilize them and buy time for the imperial army to link the fronts together."
"promise!"
Zhao Gao bowed his head and said.
Zhao Gao's orders to Ying Ji have always been unconditional obedience. Since His Majesty the Emperor has made a decision, Zhao Gao won't say anything, he just needs to obey.
…
"Stable!"
"Auxiliary machine, His Majesty the Emperor also agrees with the decision to shrink the front."
"With such a high level of autonomy in hand, you and I can do it with confidence."
After receiving instructions from Ying Ji, Bai Qi said happily to the eldest grandson Wuji beside him at the headquarters of the Central Corps cluster.
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Zhangsun Wuji and the dozens of senior officials of the Central Corps cluster all showed a knowing smile.
And this kind of scene is not limited to the central army cluster, it is almost the same in the left-wing army and the right-wing army base camp.
…
In the boundless mountains, there was no longer the silence of the past, but full of thunderous shouts of killing.
Through the shadows of the trees, I saw a Qin army in black armor chasing an army in blue.
Bloodlines were raised between the swinging of the long sword and the sword, and Qin soldiers kept chasing and beheading the hostile forces wearing blue clothes.
Desperate and wailing screams were constantly heard during the dog-chasing pursuit.
The roar of blood energy and the sound of martial arts confrontation spread all over the place, and from time to time, large trees as high as 100 zhang fell down in pieces due to the battle.
The corpses were scattered all over the field, the blood flowed into rivers, and the scene was extremely bloody.
"The army is advancing at full speed, and we must kill all of the Falling Moon Sect, leaving no one behind."
In the shadow of the sword, light and sword, a young man with a seven-foot plum blossom gun, the blood-stained Qin army general in black armor shouted loudly.
Fierce and powerful, shocking the Quartet.
——It is now that he belongs to the battle sequence of the left wing army, the general of Shenwuwei, Huo Qubing, in the Eighth David Army of Daqin!
Affected by this, countless Qin soldiers who were fighting bravely became more brave.
The thousands of disciples and elders of the Falling Moon Sect who were madly fleeing in the mountains and forests suffered.
Not only was he taken aback again, but his morale plummeted, and then he was caught up by the soldiers of the Qin army who suddenly became more courageous behind him and beheaded the owl.
"To kill them all, is it too ruthless for the Southern Region General Erke to continue?"
Hearing this, a middle-aged elder of the Fourth-Order Realm of the Falling Moon Sect rushed up to fight Huo Qubing with red eyes.
The swords and spears looked at each other, Huo Qubing sneered.
"ruthless?"
"Haha, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself."
"Your Luoyue Sect is not the first sect to be completely destroyed by Daqin Ruishi, nor will it be the last."
Huo Qubing laughed wildly and said, blood gushing all over his body, and the plum blossom spear suddenly burst into the sky, directly turning the fourth-order Luoyue Sect elder into a blood mist.
And this move scared the many disciples and elders of the Falling Moon Sect to the point of death, and hundreds of people from the Falling Moon Sect were beheaded by the guards and soldiers.
"Report..."
"The general, the general has an order, ordering the general to lead the Shenwuwei army to give up chasing the enemy and stop advancing, abandon the prominent occupation area and retreat and build a defense line."
"If there is disobedience, military law will be engaged!"
"The general is here, and the general should withdraw."
Just after Huo Qubing resolved the elder of the Falling Moon Sect, a Shenwu guard warrior quickly came to Huo Qubing and conveyed the order from the Left Wing Army headquarters to him.
Although his tone was full of puzzlement, it contained a hint of persuasion.
I hope that the general can follow the orders from the general headquarters, from General Ying Ji.
To be able to convey such an order to Shenwuwei shows that the army of Shenwuwei led by Huo Qubing has been too aggressive.
But on second thought, it was possible that only a person like Huo Qubing could do it alone.
