Chapter 819 Shunjun’s Road to Survival 11

The general on the top of the mountain was faced with two choices at this time. One was to send someone back to report to Liu Jiwu. The top of the mountain was captured, but the enemy also escaped. He asked for instructions whether to continue chasing;

The second option is to send troops to chase Qian Jun first, and at the same time have someone report Liu Jiwu.

If Liu Shuai orders not to pursue, then chase the pursuers back.

Which one to choose?

Shun Jiang chose the second option without much thought.

Just a cup of tea ago, the enemy was shooting arrows at his soldiers on the top of the mountain, but now they want to run away after shooting?

Beautiful thought!

"Chase!"

"Be careful not to fall into an ambush, they can't run far!"

In fact, General Shun did not think that the pursuers he sent out would encounter an ambush.

Because he felt that Ganjun did not have time to prepare for an ambush.

There were not many soldiers chasing down from the top of the mountain, only more than 500 people.

Their purpose is to hunt down the Gan army, not to completely annihilate the Gan army. As long as they can entangle them, they will at least inflict heavy losses on the enemy.

It's not that General Shun didn't want to send more pursuers. He only had a thousand men and it was impossible to catch them all.

Pursuing at night is a very dangerous thing. The more troops there are, the greater the danger.

Even if there is no enemy ambush, marching at night may cause considerable casualties.

The mountain road was rugged, and five hundred people formed a long queue on the winding mountain road.

"Sure enough, we caught up!"

Captain Qianjun guessed that Shunjun would catch up, because if it were him, he would definitely catch up.

Shunjiang has no reason not to pursue him!

Although he had long thought that Shun Jun would catch up, he had no time to make more preparations.

We can only use the cover of terrain and night to occasionally jump out to harass the troops.

Shunjun, who was harassed, was not only not angry, but also a little happy.

"Ganjun hasn't run far, don't worry about the fleas in the woods, hurry up and catch up with the large army of Ganjun in front!"

So the captain of the Shenwu Guards found that they had been ignored by the Shun army.

"Ha! Do you want to catch up with the battalion commander and the others? But you shouldn't ignore my existence!"

The company commander was a little angry.

The anger that was gradually burning turned into waves of physical strength that filled his body.

I'll have to break a few of your bones even if I'm exhausted!

"Brothers, this pursuer does not regard us as human beings and dares to ignore us. Can we let them pass easily?"

"cannot!"

"cannot!"

"Then give me your best performance. I don't care what method you use. If you can kill a shunjun, kill one. If you can hurt one, kill one. Anyway, in one sentence, no one is allowed to return empty-handed! "

"yes."

How scary is an angry Kamiwari warrior?

The Shunjun soldiers on the mountain road can give the answer, it's terrible!

Very scary!

The commander of the Shenwu Guards ordered his soldiers to shoot all the arrows before going down the mountain. Now the soldiers have no arrows to use if they want to shoot cold arrows in the dark.

But it doesn't matter, who said that cold arrows have to use bows and arrows, as long as they are pointed, they can be used as cold arrows.

Fifty Shenwu guards hid in the woods on both sides of the several-mile long mountain road, jumping out from time to time to attack the Shun army.

Some were successfully killed, while others failed and escaped.

However, with the cover of night, no one died in the hands of Shunjun.

Killing a compliant soldier is a relief, but killing a compliant soldier is a greater blow to the compliant army.

The Qian army has even taken away their comrades who died in battle. Are they going to abandon their wounded soldiers?

no!

If we really do this, our military morale will be lost.

Lieutenant Shunjun could only give the order with a solemn look on his face, and he took the wounded soldiers with him to pursue them.

This order was not wrong, but it caused his subordinate army to step into the abyss step by step.

The Shenwu Guards soldiers led by the company commander exerted their final strength, causing considerable casualties to the Shun Army and effectively damaging the morale of the Shun Army.

But they soon ran out of energy.

"Company Commander, brothers are dying. It's really impossible to run."

The company commander was also panting at this time, "Huh...huh...it's okay, the mission assigned by the battalion commander has been completed, we can withdraw."

Although they could withdraw, they actually fell behind the Shun army.

Before, Shunjun was chasing them, but now they are following Shunjun. How unpredictable things are!

The company commander looked at the Shun army forming a fire dragon in the darkness in front, and felt sympathy for them in his heart.

"You all suffered heavy casualties when you encountered us, and yet you dare to pursue us. Those scout teams are even more difficult to deal with than us!"

Leave professional matters to professionals, and the scout team is the most professional in setting up traps among the Shenwu Guards.

The company commander and his fifty soldiers exhausted all their strength and only killed less than a hundred soldiers, which did not meet his expectations at all.

But there was nothing he could do, his soldiers had no strength, and it was their last outburst to kill so many enemies.

The 500-strong Shun Army suffered less than 100 casualties, and nearly 20% of the casualties did not cause the Shun Army to collapse. Moreover, it was still night, so this Shun Army could be called an elite.

A general army will collapse if its casualties exceed 30%, and 20% is already a very dangerous number.

But the Shun army not only did not collapse at this time, but also brought wounded soldiers who affected morale, and they were ready to continue the pursuit!

The army that Liu Jiwu has been holding in his hands is indeed extraordinary.

Although the company commander admired the Shunjun's tenacity, he didn't think they could escape from the scout team.

The entire army might be wiped out.

No matter how tough the Shun army is, they cannot withstand 50% or 60% casualties. When they collapse, they will not be a match for the scout team.

Things developed exactly as the company commander expected.

The commander of the Shun Army who did not believe in evil did not return to the top of the mountain, nor did he wait for the support from the top of the mountain. He continued to pursue the retreating Xiao Tianhang's troops alone.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Shunjun team was also very solemn. The wounded soldiers in the team were trying to keep quiet, but the severe pain still caused some of the wounded soldiers to moan non-stop.

The groan of one wounded soldier is more disturbing than the death of three soldiers.

That's why many armies only take away wounded soldiers when they win.

It had been a while since they had encountered a sneak attack from Qianjun, but this did not make the Shunjun soldiers feel relaxed.

The depression of the impending storm weighed on everyone's hearts, making them dare not make a sound easily.

If this doesn't work, you'll be crushed before you even meet the enemy.

"Captain, why don't we go back to the top of the mountain first? The injured soldier may not be able to hold on for long."

Colonel Shun Jun looked at the dark mountain road in front of him, feeling very unwilling to do so.

If the enemy's main force failed to catch up, our own side would suffer heavy losses, and it would definitely leave an impression of incompetence on the general's mind after he returns.

well!

After thinking for a while, he decided to send fifty men to protect the wounded soldiers, and the other soldiers continued to pursue him for a distance.

At least I can't let the general think that I was chased back by a small group of enemies who were responsible for cutting off the rear before I had pursued far.

A quarter of an hour, another quarter of an hour, and then I will retreat!

Captain Shun Jun led 360 Shun soldiers and continued to pursue Xiao Tianhang.

They didn't know that they had stepped into the battlefield prepared by Wu Gang.

It is prepared for whoever catches up.

It was still the classic cold arrows, ground thorns, stones, wooden stakes, and vines. After only moving forward for more than a hundred meters, the Shun army lost more than seventy soldiers.

Some of the soldiers chased them into the woods next to the mountain road, but never came out, as if they were swallowed by darkness.

Colonel Shun Jun regretted a little. It would have been better if he had gone back to the top of the mountain with the wounded soldiers just now!

It's just that there is no regret medicine in the world. Whatever you choose, you have to accept the consequences!
