Chapter 38 The army that disappeared out of thin air
Just as the Imperial Guard was thinking about this, Zhang Wei was already shouting: "This must be a lie about military information, it is impossible!"
Zhang Wei really couldn't control his emotions anymore, and he started to curse on the Golden Palace because the battle report in his hand was really incredible.
Seeing Zhang Wei so excited, Ji Feng rushed up. After seeing this, Ji Feng's brows frowned even harder, but Ji Feng was more calmer than Zhang Wei. After reading the entire battle report, his frowning brows slightly relieved, because the last sentence was very clear: "Summon Zhang Wei to take the battle report to go to Yanbei day and night!"
"What the hell is going on?" Mo Wencang walked up, and when he saw the casualties on the battle report, he smiled bitterly. This was too impossible, or too incredible. In Mo Wencang's opinion, unless a god descended, such a battle record would not be possible.
How did the barbaric retreat to Yiguan? Could it be that the barbaric people are all fools? Could it be that the barbaric has reached the level of being scared to cry when seeing Mo Feng? It is obvious that this cannot be believed by anyone.
"Your Majesty, this battle report should be correct. Even if it is a little exaggerated, it can be imagined that our army's casualties are absolutely minimal." Ji Feng has actually grasped an important point, but he still cannot imagine what method he used to achieve such a great victory.
In Yanbei and Mofeng's 320,000 troops seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. There were less than 20,000 people in the entire Yanbei Pass, and these 20,000 people were equipped with 20,000 war horses. It can be said that this is a complete cavalry.
Use cavalry to defend the city? This has never appeared since the past. Everyone knows that the biggest function of cavalry is to rush and blitzkrieg. What is the use of cavalry to defend the city? If it is used to defend the city, 20,000 cavalry is even less useful than low-level archers of 20,000 or 10,000.
Fang Han was ordered by Mo Peak to stay in Yanbei. In the past ten days, he had ordered the 20,000 cavalrymen to build a simple city wall in Yanbei. The city wall was only two meters thick and ten meters high, almost all of which were built with the original abandoned stone. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as the word "vulnerable to one blow".
"General Fang, General Zhang Wei has arrived from the capital!" Zhang Wei immediately said as he listened to a messenger's report: "Hurry! Let General Zhang come, I have something important!"
"I've arrived!" Zhang Wei was still wearing the tiger-headed battle armor at this time. After receiving Mo Feng's military order, Zhang Wei only brought a hundred cavalry day and night. It took nine days to travel from the capital to Yanbei. Zhang Wei almost didn't have much rest during these nine days, so he seemed a little tired now.
"General Zhang!" Fang Han stood up to greet Zhang Wei, and Zhang Wei immediately stopped Fang Han and said, "What's going on? Why are there so few people in Yanbei? Could it be that Marshal Mo Feng sent troops again?" This was Zhang Wei's first thought.
"No, even the Marshal went to this time, but the Marshal only received one order, which was to wait for the Marshal to attack, and once the Marshal broke the city, he would quickly retreat to Chishui..." That's right, even Fang Han didn't know what Mo Feng was going to do this time, but it didn't matter. After the Marshal of Yanbei retreated and recaptured Yanbei, Mo Feng's prestige had reached an unprecedented height in the army. The soldiers had already vaguely felt that as long as Marshal Mo Feng led them, they could defeat everything.
"Waiting for the wilderness and breaking into Chishui? This..." Zhang Wei was a little stunned. What a mess. Twenty thousand people guard Yanbei. This is equivalent to opening the Yanbei city gate and telling others that you come quickly, we are vulnerable.
"The Marshal gave the order. This time, everyone guarding the city was obeyed General Zhang's command. General Zhang must delay time as much as possible. No one is allowed to withdraw if the city wall does not fall." Fang Han looked at Zhang Wei carefully. In fact, Zhang Wei's reputation in the army is still very high. Fang Han was afraid that Zhang Wei would not obey the command, because he received two orders this time. If Zhang Wei obeyed the command, then Zhang Wei would be the supreme commander. If he did not obey, then no matter what method Fang Han used, he must make Zhang Wei obey...
To put it bluntly, I mean telling Fang Han that Zhang Wei is the best if he is obedient. If he is not obedient, please let him obey me.
"How did Yanbei take this?" Zhang Wei actually thought about this question since he set out from the imperial city. Now that he has arrived in Yanbei, Zhang Wei is eager to know all this.
"The Marshal said that no one is allowed to tell General Zhang..." Fang Han's words made Zhang Wei angry. What's the situation? He is the supreme commander, but he can't know anything?
"General Zhang, the Marshal said that this time is of great importance. General Zhang doesn't ask anything. He just needs to act according to the strategy in this treasure! No other matters must be asked!" Fang Han was already sweating on his head. In fact, even Fang Han himself was a little confused about these orders, but Mo Feng explained to him countless times when he left, and said that Yuyang's survival and demise were in Yanbei, so even if Fang Han was under tremendous pressure, he would never dare to be arrogant.
"Okay! OK! OK!" Zhang Wei said three good words in a row. At this time, he understood that from the general to the marshal, almost all the defenders in Yanbei had completely convinced the young commander. If he asked more questions at this time, he would have to take the blame if there was a problem, so Zhang Wei chose to remain silent at this time.
"Okay! I want to see how His Highness the Seventh Prince will reverse the world! The 500,000 army of wilderness is ready to go, leaving only 20,000 people to station in Yanbei. I want to see what he is going to do!" Zhang Wei also took his own risk. At this time, he could see that he was not qualified to resist. From the way he entered the door, the personal guards he brought had been isolated. At least one thousand people outside surrounded the big tent. If he didn't obey, he might be pinned to the ground by these thousand people.
"In such a short time, so many people are in love. Brother is right. This person has a stronger ability than all of us and will never be investigated!" Although Zhang Wei was unhappy, he still had to admit the facts. He glanced at the tip of his hand and said, "Don't worry, General Fang, I know what priorities are. Since the marshal gave the order, I definitely dare not disobey at all, so please General Fang to withdraw your people!"
"Occursed..." Fang Han wiped the cold sweat from his forehead when he heard this, and finally got Zhang Wei. In fact, he really didn't want to do it in the words of the marshal, but if Zhang Wei was really a tough guy, he had to do it.
"Hmph! Take the Yanbei Bu's defense map, and I will re-arrange the defense!" Zhang Wei glanced at Fang Han. This time Fang Han didn't say much, but directly brought the defense map. However, the thousand people outside did not withdraw. Obviously, Fang Han was still a little afraid that Zhang Wei would do something...
(It seems that Xiaoye will be out of power here tomorrow, so all updates tomorrow may be put until the evening. Let me also say that everyone’s recommendation tickets will be more powerful starting next week, because Xiaoye decided to ask everyone for votes for five consecutive updates next week...)
