The Golden Age Chapter 718: Lost in the wild


After lunch, Qian Guiting's mood began to become anxious.

Yuan Changling went to the appointment early in the freshman year. Qian Guiting was naturally very relieved of Yuan Changling's tongue. As long as the other party offered the conditions, he believed Yuan Changling would respond calmly.

The Zuo Jun asked for money, food, or even ordnance, and Qian returned to the court and didn't care.

The most important thing the Qian family lacks is money and food, and there are not a few weapons and equipment secretly built these years.

Anyway, the reinforcements sent by the imperial court will arrive soon, and the tens of thousands of the left army will give them enough money, food and equipment, just to strengthen their strength to fight against the reinforcements.

As long as Musk Moon can be brought back to Suzhou City, it will be worth the price.

The right army attacked Shuning City. Not only did it fail to break the city, but the whole army disappeared. But my son, Mr. Qian, took Mosk back in just a few days. The Qian family can completely control the overall situation, and the prestige of Lord Qian will surely resound in Jiangnan.

He was very excited, wishing Yuan Changling could bring the princess back directly.

However, all the soldiers and soldiers in the army have used lunch, and Yuan Changling still has not returned. Qian Guiting's mood began to become anxious, and he even had an ominous premonition.

Zhaojiagou is only a few tens of miles away from here, and it takes less than half an hour to come back quickly. Even if the two sides negotiate the conditions, it will take some time, but it will not take so long.

After the soldiers retreated to this side yesterday, in order to prevent sudden attacks by the enemy, they have always maintained a state of alert. The cavalry has always stayed by the horses, and the archers have kept their bows in their hands.

When starting from Suzhou City, in order to get to Shuning County as soon as possible, it was a day and night trip. The whole army was actually a bit tired. Although they had a rest under Funiu Mountain, they immediately launched an attack against Shuning City. After the attack and retreat, everyone remained vigilant, and their spirits were tense. After overnight, many people had already shown exhaustion.

"Report!" A person rushed over and fell to his knees: "Commander, the left army begins to move!"

Qian Guiting stood up abruptly and asked, "Which way to move?"

"They are divided into three." Renren said: "Thousands of people are moving on the front, and thousands of people on each of the wings are going to our flanks."

Qian Guiting was taken aback and said anxiously: "Are they going to attack us?" Suddenly he was a little flustered, turned his head and said, "Sir, you...!" He realized that Yuan Changling was not by his side. .

Although Qian Guiting holds the military power of the Suzhou Battalion, he really doesn’t know anything about marching wars. On the contrary, Yuan Changling has read two military books and knows a little about the fur. So although Qian Guiting is the commander-in-chief, he is big and small. Regarding matters, Qian Guiting will always ask Yuan Changling for advice.

At the moment, the Zuo Army moved suddenly, and seeing that the formation turned out to be to make dumplings from the Suzhou camp, Qian Guiting was of course shocked. If Yuan Changling was on the side, it would be fine, but now there is no military commander by his side, Qian Guiting. Immediately messed up.

At this moment, several generals hurried over, all of them were the lieutenants of the Suzhou camp.

"You are here just right." Qian Guiting hurriedly said: "What is the situation with Zuojun?"

A school lieutenant said: "Commander, the left army seems to be full of energy and ready to launch an offensive against us. Please also commander to make a quick decision, whether to fight or to retreat?"

Seeing several school lieutenants looking at him, Qian Guiting suddenly thought that he secretly reached an agreement with Wen Rengui and performed a scene yesterday, but for the sake of caution, he did not tell about it

The subordinates, except Yuan Changling, no one else knew that Zuo Jun was a feint yesterday.

Because of this, the generals all thought that the left army had really turned against the water.

Qian Guiting didn't know why the Zuo Army suddenly changed. Yesterday everyone was a friendly army, and they cooperated in the act tacitly. Why did this friendly army play for real overnight?

"What do you guys say?" Qian Guiting's mind was a little confused.

Several lieutenants looked at each other, and one said, "Although the number of the left army is large, it is just a group of mobs. Although the number of troops is large, the equipment is rough, and it is far from comparable to my Suzhou battalion. This rebellious rebel army is directly annihilated."

"Yes, we deploy a few soldiers and horses on the two wings, as long as we resist the rebels on the two wings." Someone echoed: "The main force directly confronts the frontal enemy. As long as the frontal rebels are defeated, the two wings will not attack themselves. ."

Someone immediately objected: "Commander, never do. Yesterday, Captain Lu led the cavalry to break and broke nearly a hundred cavalry. Although they are outnumbered by enemies, it can be seen that the rebels are not all mobs, and some Some combatants. The most important thing is that the Taihu Army is stationed in Xixia Mountain. Once we are dragged by the rebels, the Taihu Army is likely to take advantage of the situation. Although he has not fought against the Taihu Army, Linghu Xuan is definitely not. Good crop, the Taihu Army is not an incompetent army."

"It makes sense." Some people agreed with the withdrawal: "If our army is really surrounded by them, even if they are eventually wiped out, but the enemy will kill one thousand and lose 800, the result will be heavy casualties."

The former captain sneered and said: "You are afraid of the enemy, shaking the military's mind. A gang of mobs will scare you to retreat. If you really fight against the Tang army, don't you have to kneel and beg for mercy?"

"You are brave and intrepid." The school lieutenant who supported the withdrawal sneered: "The Suzhou Camp is the main force of the Queen Mother's Association. You must not be ruined here because of your will."

"Who do you say is brave and intrepid?" The previous person was obviously a hot temper, holding on to the hilt: "You say something?"

"I'm still afraid that you won't succeed?" The other party has already drawn his sword out of its sheath.

Qian Guiting was upset when he saw his subordinates arguing, and shouted: "Don't quarrel." Looking towards Shu Ningcheng, he had already guessed in his heart that Yuan Changling went to the appointment, I am afraid that he was caught in the trap of his opponent.

Yuan Changling was caught in the trap. It can be seen that Sheyue is really scheming. Without Mr. Yuan by his side, Qian Guiting would have no confidence in his heart. At this time, listening to the arguing of his staff, his mind was even more chaotic.

He really wanted to organize a battle between soldiers and horses and the left army. After all, in his bones, he was full of disdain for the rabble of the left army. If he could wipe out the left army in one fell swoop, he would be famous.

But he didn't dare to look down upon the Taihu Army.

Ling Huxuan has been entrenched in Taihu for decades, and the Jiangnan family hated him deeply, but he did not get any points. Such a character is certainly not a good crop. If there is no Taihu Army in Xixia Mountain, Qian Guiting would be willing to let go World War I, but the existence of the Taihu Army made him really unable to make this determination.

If the Suzhou camp is really buried here because of impulse, the Qian family will almost be completely finished.

"The order goes on and withdraw immediately!" Qian Guiting groaned slightly, and finally ordered in a deep voice.

The commander gave the order, and everyone is not arguing anymore. A school lieutenant said: "Commander, the grain and grass are all under the Funiu Mountain, should you withdraw to the Funiu Mountain first?"

Qian Guiting only remembered at this time that he still had his own baggage under Funiu Mountain.

This time the army is dispatched, the money will return to the court naturally to be sufficient

The grain and grass were recruited, and thousands of civilians were recruited to transport grain and grass. During the siege, more than two hundred people were specifically left to guard the grain and grass. When the troops were withdrawn, they did not directly retreat to Funiu Mountain. At this time, it was still twenty minutes away from Funiu Mountain. Doily.

The grain and grass are piled up like a mountain. If the army is withdrawn directly, the grain and grass will definitely be obtained by the Zuo army. It is of course impossible for Qiangui from the rich family to keep it. He said: "Withdraw to Fu Niu Shan, even if they chase us up the mountain, they can't help us."

The left army moved forward quickly, and the Suzhou Battalion immediately sent an order to withdraw its troops, heading straight to Funiu Mountain.

During the retreat, the Suzhou Battalion was still in order. After the cavalry was broken, the Suzhou Battalion had quickly evacuated from the battlefield before the left army completed the encirclement.

Qian Guiting rode on the horse, feeling angry.

I hold a good soldier in my hand. I siege the city yesterday without losing the wind, and even hope to break the city directly. In order to cooperate with Wen Rengui, the Suzhou camp has made a lot of sacrifices. I have to be so passive.

Now that She Yue hasn't caught her hand, Yuan Changling doesn't know his life or death.

This grudge must be reported!

I heard the sound of rumbling footsteps and shouts from the rear, vaguely saw Zuo Jun still chasing in the rear, sneered in my heart, and wanted to wait for Lao Tzu to calm down, and I would kill these mobs. Do not stay.

Hurrying all the way, Funiu Mountain is in front of him. At this moment, he suddenly regrets a bit, not knowing whether his decision is right or wrong.

It is true that these grains and grass cannot be left to the left army, but it is impossible to retreat with these grains and grasses. The only way is to burn all these grains and grass with a fire, so as not to make the enemy army cheap.

But the chasing soldiers are behind them. Even if they can set fire to the grain, it is too late to withdraw the troops calmly. When the enemy comes over, they can only go up the mountain to avoid the edge.

What if the enemy forces surround Funiu Mountain? In such a short period of time, if the food cannot be transported to the mountain, and people have no food, how long can they last?

He sinks his heart, faintly feeling that he might have made a fatal mistake by keeping these grains.

Close to the foot of Funiu Mountain, Qian Guiting's face was around, and everyone around him was shocked when they saw it.

At the time of the siege yesterday, the civilians who transported grain were of course staying in the camp. A wooden fence was built under the mountain. A large number of grain, grass and vehicles were piled in it. But at the moment, there are only vehicles but no grain in the wooden fence. , Corpses all over the floor.

Those corpses were obviously soldiers who stayed behind to guard the grain and grass, lying on the ground all the way, there were thirty or forty corpses, to be less.

"What's the matter?" Qian Guiting said silently: "Someone...someone attacked?"

"Commander, it's too late." A school lieutenant said loudly: "The chaser is here, hurry up the mountain."

Qian Guiting looked at the corpses on the ground, furious, clenched his fists, but still sent an order: "Go up the mountain!"

As soon as he took the lead, he wanted to go up the mountain. He reached the foot of the mountain, before dismounting. He suddenly heard the sound of "swish, swish," but he didn't react. He opened his eyes wide and he had already listened. With screams around him, many soldiers who were about to go up the mountain were shot and killed by the oncoming arrow rain.

"Puff!"

An arrow hit Qian Guiting’s shoulder, Qian Guiting yelled "Ah," and turned over and fell off the horse. At this time, gongs and drums were already sounding on the mountain, and a thunderous sound was heard: "Taihu Tukuohai is here. , Where are you going!"
