Final Volume Chapter 47

After Tang Yin heard this, he burst into laughter and smiled bitterly. It's hard to imagine that Tang Yin could still laugh when the Feiyu Army, which originally numbered 100,000, only had 15,000 left. Qingyu asked: "Your Majesty, what should we do next?"

Now he has no idea. Even if he is proficient in military art and can lead troops to fight, he can't do anything with a defeated army of only 15,000 people.

Tang Yin pondered for a moment and said: "Shuangtang County has no place for our army to stand. We can only withdraw from Shuangtang County for the time being and join the Pingyuan Army, Sanshui Army, and Directly Affiliated Army..." His voice became lower and lower as he spoke. In the end, he couldn't even speak.

At the beginning, all the generals unanimously opposed his strategy of dividing the troops, but he was stubborn and insisted on leading the Feiyu Army first, broke into Shuangtang County, and attacked Xuangu Pass. The result was a complete defeat and countless casualties. Now he wants to retreat to peace with the plains. As the troops gathered together, Tang Yin himself felt his face getting hot.

Of course Qingyu could understand the embarrassment in Tang Yin's heart, and was afraid that he would regret it after losing face, so he hurriedly said seriously: "Your Majesty is right, our army must withdraw from Shuangtang County immediately and join forces with General Xiao and others. Chucai.”

Tang Yin nodded, then looked at Zhang Hong and Wang Dian, waved his hand and said, "Both of you, get up. The responsibility for today's defeat is not all yours, but you two must also remember that you will definitely serve your crimes in the future. , make up for it.”

"Thank you, king, thank you, general! Thank you, king, thank you, general..." Zhang Hong and Wang Dian thought they were dead this time, but they did not expect that the king would save their lives, so they kowtowed repeatedly.

Tang Yin waved his hand, indicating that they should go down first. After Zhang Hong and Wang Dian left, Tang Yin frowned and said: "Since it was Buying who rushed to Shuangtang County, then everything that happened to our army was planned by him, and he should have been able to calculate the final outcome of our army." will be forced to withdraw from Shuangtang County.”

"So, Your Majesty, you think Buying will set up an ambush on our army's way out of Shuangtang County?" Qingyu is so smart, he can tell the truth.

Tang Yin nodded and said: "It's very possible. If I were Buying, I would definitely set up an ambush on the road and give the invading enemy the final blow!"

Qingyu expressed his gratitude. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that the king's concerns were justified. He asked, "What about the king's opinion?"

Tang Yin said: "Avoid official roads and take mountain roads."

Qingyu couldn't help but take a breath, subconsciously looked at the soldiers around him, and said, "I'm afraid... my brothers won't be able to hold on!"

Shuangtang County is mountainous and forested, and the mountain roads are complicated. Some road sections are relatively flat, while other road sections are between mountain streams and are not suitable for large armies to march at all.

Tang Yin didn't know that the mountain road was difficult to walk, but this was the only way to avoid the Sichuan army. He said: "Our army has lost all its baggage and has very little food and grass left. It has no burden and it is suitable to take the mountain road."

Qingyu nodded thoughtfully, feeling that although Tang Yin's method was a bit risky, it was at least much safer than taking the official route. He said: "Just do what the king wants. Let's take the mountain road back to Yisu."

The Feiyu Army led by Tang Yin and Qingyu gathered up the remnants of the defeated troops in Baipi City. The two sides merged together, stopped fighting, abandoned the official road, and quietly took the mountain stream path.

The mountain roads in Shuangtang County are strange and dangerous, especially the roads dug into the mountains. One side is a mountain wall, and the other side is a cliff dozens of feet deep. The width of the mountain road is less than half a meter, and it can only accommodate one person at a time. The terrible thing is that the mountain road is extremely slippery, and even if you are careful, you can easily lose your footing and fall.

The difficulty and danger of marching under such conditions can be imagined. Almost every day, Tang Yin received a thick stack of casualties. As time went by, there were not many flying feathers left. The number of soldiers became smaller.

The only good thing is that they did not encounter an ambush by the Sichuan army, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. After Tang Yin and Qing Yu led their troops over Duntou Mountain, they would reach the border of Yisu County further forward. When they arrived here, Tang Yin and Qing Yu also let out a long sigh of relief.

At present, the Pingyuan Army, the Sanshui Army, and the Directly Affiliated Army are in Yisu County, and have advanced to Tongzhou, the county seat of Yisu County, and Tongzhou is not too far from Duntoushan.

After leaving Duntou Mountain, Tang Yin and Qingyu immediately led their troops to Tongzhou. To make a long story short, there were no dangers along the way. Five days later, the remnants of the Feiyu Army led by Tang Yin and Qingyu finally reunited with the main force of the Feng Army stationed near Tongzhou. one place.

The current Feiyu Army was miserable, and Tang Yin was not much better either. His hair was unkempt, his clothes were torn in many places, and they were covered in mud, making him look like a beggar.

When generals Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, and Wuying came out of the camp and saw Tang Yin like this, everyone couldn't help laughing and almost laughed out loud on the spot.

It's just that this is really not the time to laugh. The Feiyu Army was beaten really badly. Under normal circumstances, a legion can be canceled if the number of casualties exceeds 70%, but now the number of Feiyu Army casualties is close to 90%. , an army of 100,000 people, only more than 10,000 people returned, and most of them were wounded. It can be said that the Feiyu Army is now in name only.

Xiao Muqing took the lead and stepped forward quickly, stepped in to salute, then looked at Tang Yin up and down with concern, and asked seriously: "The king is not injured, right?"

"I'm very fine." Tang Yin said nonchalantly. As he spoke, his eyes swept around the faces of the generals.

"The general has carefully read the battle report sent back by the king. I really didn't expect that Buying has arrived at Shuangtang County and has set up a bison formation outside Xuangu Pass..."

Before he could finish his words, Tang Yin waved his hand impatiently and interrupted: "There is no need for you to elaborate on how this battle was fought. Now, you must immediately order your troops and follow me to capture Xuangu Pass!"

"This..." Xiao Muqing grinned secretly. The king just suffered a big defeat and finally escaped from Shuangtang County. Now he is going to attack again. I'm afraid he will still lose more than he wins!

Seeing the embarrassment on his face, Liang Qi chuckled to himself. The king obviously couldn't get off the stage. How could he really want to attack Xuangu Pass again?

He took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, you have worked hard all the way and fought continuously. I am afraid that your body will not be able to bear it. It is better to rest for a few days. Xuangu Pass is right there, and you will not run away with long legs. Wait a few days before going again." It’s not too late to attack.”

Tang Yin looked like he was thinking seriously and pondered for a while. Fang slowly nodded and said reluctantly: "What you said is right. That's fine. I'll rest for two days and talk to Buying another day. The old thief fights to the death!"

Liang Qi bowed his hands and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wise!"

In the battle of Xuangu Pass, the Feng Army suffered a heavy loss and lost an entire main force of the Feng Army. The total strength of the Feng Army also dropped sharply from 400,000 to 300,000. At this point, the Feng Army no longer had the advantage in strength over the Sichuan Army.

When there is no numerical advantage and the battle is in a different place, it is not as easy as it was at the beginning to push forward and penetrate deep into the hinterland of Sichuan Kingdom.

Now, Sichuan Kingdom has recovered from the shock of Fengjun's sudden invasion. Both the local army and the family army began to quickly gather to build a defense line. In addition, the 200,000 Central Army led by Bu Ying has also arrived in Shuangtang. County, this reassured the local army and local officials of Sichuan State.

What was even more unfavorable to the Feng Army was that as news spread of the arrival of reinforcements led by Buying, large-scale rebellions began to occur in Leize County, which had been captured by the Feng Army. Those Sichuan troops who had surrendered to the Feng Army turned around one after another. The spearhead struck at Feng Jun's back.

Among them, the rebellion in Shimen City was the most serious. The surrendered Sichuan troops turned against each other en masse, and together with the people in the city, the Feng army stationed in Shimen City was surrounded and killed.

Shimen is the county seat of Leize County. Feng Jun regards this place as his base camp for the southward march. All materials, food and grass are stored in Shimen. The news of Shimen’s fall suddenly came, which is undoubtedly the heaviest blow to Feng Jun. blow.

After receiving the news that Shimen had been recaptured by the Sichuan Army, the generals came to see Tang Yin to discuss their next countermeasures and arrangements.

In the Chinese army tent, the experienced Xiao Muqing said bluntly: "Your Majesty, the weather, location, people and people are not on our army's side now. If we continue to fight forcefully, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed."

When Tang Yin heard this, his brows immediately knitted into knots and he asked, "Mu Qing, what do you mean by saying that? Do you want me to withdraw my troops?"

"Your Majesty, with the fall of Shimen, our army has lost all its food and grass, and its supply lines have also been cut off. The entire army's rations are less than half a month's worth. If we continue to fight, I'm afraid we will... make the same mistake as the Feiyu Army..."

When Xiao Muqing finished speaking, the anger in Tang Yin's heart suddenly reached his forehead. He waved his hand and patted the table, and asked angrily: "Are you afraid?"

"The general has fought with the king on the battlefield, and has fought more than a hundred battles, both big and small. How could the general have ever been afraid? It's just... this time we send troops to Sichuan, our country is not well prepared. The only advantage is surprise. Attacking them unprepared will catch the Sichuan Kingdom by surprise, but now the opportunity has been lost and there will be no results if we continue to fight. We should withdraw our troops earlier!"

Tang Yin slowly clenched his fists, turned his eyes, looked at Liang Qi and Qingyu, and asked, "Is this what you two mean?"

Qingyu nodded silently, and Liang Qi said: "Your Majesty, what General Xiao said is absolutely true. Now that our army has lost its fighter plane, if we retreat earlier, there will be fewer casualties among our soldiers."

If Xiao Muqing was the only one who said this, Tang Yin could still say that he made a mistake in judgment, but now that even Liang Qi and Qingyu agreed with him, Tang Yin had nothing to say.

Like a deflated rubber ball, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and said quietly: "If we just withdraw our troops like this, how can we be worthy of those soldiers who spilled their blood on the battlefield and buried their bones in foreign lands..."

Hearing his sigh, Qingyu's eyes turned red and tears almost fell down. Xiao Muqing and Liang Qi looked at each other, and the former said seriously: "Your Majesty, the sacrifices of the soldiers are valuable. At least they provide us with experience in fighting in Sichuan."
