Chapter five hundred and forty-ninth chase all the way
The sacrifice of Ma Shaoqing and his group of people only gave them a temporary breathing time, but Yao Guangxiao's army soon pursued them again. These were all elite troops under Yao Guangxiao. Sun Hai's men soon suffered casualties. If this continues, even if the troops flee to Majiabao will be completely wiped out.
"General, we can't get rid of the pursuers no matter what..."
"Wu Fei told me that I ordered it to go west road..."
"General, there is Nujiang there..."
"It is because it is Nujiang that I want to cross the river..."
This Nujiang River is a tributary of the Yangtze River. Due to the terrain difference, the water flow is very turbulent. The only way to pass through the Nujiang River is an ancient stone bridge. Sun Hai arranged for the front troops to cross the bridge first, and in addition to this, he also secretly placed explosives on the bridge.
"General, you want to blow up the bridge..."
"Wu Fei, you install a few more detonators on the bridge, one at each end of the bridge, and one in the middle of the bridge..."
"Yes, General."
Sun Hai arranged for Wu Fei to do this to solve Yao Guangxiao. He even planned to die with Yao Guangxiao. Of course, in addition to avenging his master, he mainly covered the retreat of the large army.
"Military advisor, the enemy is ready to cross the river..."
"Cross the river?" Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but ask, "What river is ahead?"
"Military advisor, that's Nujiang..."
Yao Guangxiao smiled and said, "It's not that easy to cross the river and explode the bridge."
Yao Guangxiao took the lead in using artillery to completely interrupt Sun Hai's plan. Of course, Sun Hai also had artillery. Although he had destroyed a lot of parts for Yao Guangxiao, he could still resist it for the time being.
"Bang bang!!"
The sound of cannons rumbling, and the stone bridge could not bear the destruction of the cannon fire and collapsed in an instant. As soon as the stone bridge collapsed, Sun Hai's hope was cut off. He had ignored so much. The only thing he could do was to fight the enemy.
"Kill!"
Although Sun Hai was injured, it was not something that ordinary people could provoke. After the shot, he actually harvested the heads of several Yan soldiers. Yao Guangxiao also knew that he was fighting hard and rushed up there was nowhere to be foolish.
"Fire! Fire desperately!"
Yao Guangxiao's guy actually made him on the Musket Team. This was obviously bullying Sun Hai's firepower was not strong enough. In just one hour, Sun Hai's side had more than 10,000 casualties, and Yao Guangxiao only had about a thousand casualties.
"Military advisor, we have already forced Sun Hai's team to Shitou Mountain on the Nujiang River..."
"I'm telling me to order the artillery to prepare for attack..."
Yao Guangxiao's order sounded before the cannon was issued. The cannon sounded from the other side, but soon the sound of cannon sounded from both sides. The three sides were stunned by Yao Guangxiao. In the end, he didn't even know who the enemy was.
"Everyone pay attention to concealment..."
Yao Guangxiao could only give such an order. After all, he had not figured out who the opponent was. It was easy to cause casualties whether it was retreating or counterattacking. In addition, he was in a hilly area with rocks, such a place could still withstand artillery fire. In addition to letting the army hide as much as possible, Yao Guangxiao also sent out several groups of spies. After all, even the opponent was not sure which one was, there was no way to fight this battle.
"Transfer my order, all spies must find out who the opponent is..."
"Yes, military advisor..."
What Yao Guangxiao was most afraid of was that Zhu Yunwen was in charge of the army. After all, if this was the case, the King of Yan would be in danger. Of course, it was because of this reason that he allowed the army to stay. Yao Guangxiao even planned to fight to the death with Zhu Yunwen. Although he knew he was defeated, he would fight Zhu Yunwen for the sake of the King of Yan's plan, even if he fought with him, he would do whatever he wanted to die.
"General Qu, that old thief Yao Guangxiao actually sent a large number of spies..."
"Tell me that I ordered to bombard those spies..."
These spies never expected to suffer such nightmare. Whether walking or riding a horse, they became the target of artillery attacks. Even those spies who could break out of the siege could not escape the pursuit of Qu Neng's shadow troops. These shadow troops are the most elite troops of the Qu family army. They usually complete tasks such as inquiring about information and assassinating the enemy. Of course, Qu Neng's troops are his secret weapon, and he even arranged his two biological sons into this unit.
"Military advisor, none of our spies came back alive..."
"How is this possible!"
Yao Guangxiao sent nearly a hundred spies, and intelligence personnel of this size had never tried any war, but none of them came back alive, which really made Yao Guangxiao unable to accept it.
"General Li, you bring a small group of troops to withdraw back to Lin'an City first. Remember to report these things to His Highness the King of Yan..."
"Military advisor, I understand."
Li Bin, a master who had just entered the early stage of the Grandmaster, was very steady and clever. Yao Guangxiao appreciated him very much and gave him some important tasks. Just like this time, Yao Guangxiao handed him over such an important task as notifying the King of Yan because he believed him. Yao Guangxiao made a bold decision after sending Li Bin away. It turned out that he was going to solve all Sun Hai's men. In addition to solving the current troubles, Yao Guangxiao also wanted to leave a secret son. Needless to say, Yao Guangxiao's secret son was Li Jinglong, who was Zhu Yunwen's personal cousin. This means that Zhu Yunwen probably wouldn't be wary of him, so Li Jinglong could open the door of the palace like this time.
"General Sun, the enemy has surrounded us..."
"Send the order and beat me hard."
Sun Hai knew that reinforcements were coming, so he was not so aggressive. Of course, he did this to maintain his strength. Sun Hai's decision made Yao Guangxiao suffer. After all, if he didn't capture this Lion Head Mountain now, his troops would be attacked from both sides.
"Bang bang!"
Yao Guangxiao was most worried about. This was not just an attack of artillery fire, but the enemy even crossed the river. This was even a few times more team than his own. It wasn't enough. In the process of crossing the river, the artillery fire was even more desperate to hit.
"Retreat! Pass my order to retreat immediately..."
Yao Guangxiao knew that he could no longer hold it. If he retreated late, the 200,000 people would probably be eaten. Of course, he retreated for his own life. Seeing that Yao Guangxiao's men had completely turned into defense to offense, Sun Hai also took advantage of this opportunity to kill many Yao Guangxiao.
"Everyone rush..."
"Who will get rewards from Yao Guangxiao's level..."
After Sun Hai's order, everyone was even more eager to chase after him, but they only chased him halfway through the way, blocking the way for a mysterious army. Of course, they knew that this team was the one who had just rescued him.
Chapter completed!
