    ? When the golden gong rang, the Fatty Army's Mahada Division of the Qing Army began to retreat. The rear team became the front team, and the front team changed to the rear team, and they retreated from the battlefield in an orderly manner.  Seeing this scene, the fat army cheered thunderously, and countless generals of the fat army rushed to Li Tianzhi, asking for a general offensive. Even Yao Qisheng, the strategist of the fat army, agreed with this tactic and suggested to Li Tianzhi: "General Li, it's time for a general attack!"  , if you kill one more Mangou in the field, you will have less resistance when attacking the city."

    "Not busy." Li Tianzhi still looked unhurried, raised his binoculars to carefully observe the situation when the Qing army retreated, and after a while he praised: "We can't attack all the time yet, Man Gou, the leader of the army, is a bit capable, and the pioneers are not rash."  , The latter is orderly, and it is rare to be able to do this when retreating from the battle. At this time, the general attack will not take advantage of it, and it will increase our casualties."

    Putting down the binoculars, Li Tianzhi ordered again: "The Chinese army advances slowly, keeping a distance of two miles from the Mangou brigade. The front team pursues and bites the Mangou's tail. Then send orders to Yitanbu to let his cavalry quickly intersperse and roundabout  Go to the front of the full-dog team's retreat route to intercept, block the full-dog retreat, force the full-dog team into chaos, and wait until the full-dog team is in chaos before launching a general attack."

    The generals of the Suzhou Legion of Fatty Army, who had long been accustomed to Li Tianzhi's conservative style, agreed, and reluctantly followed the order, commanding the middle army of the Fatty Army to advance slowly, chasing the Qing army in an orderly manner, and always keeping the queue in order.  Yao Qisheng on the side praised: "General Li is really stable, no wonder the prince can rest assured to hand over the southern line to you, and never worry about the southern line."

    "Military division is too much." Li Tianzhi said modestly: "Li Tianzhi is stupid, his only strength is a little self-knowledge, knowing that he is not as good as General Gao Dejie in surprise battles, not as good as General Wang Xu in tough battles, and not as flexible in tactical command as General Han Daren.  It's even worse than the unrestrained and unpredictable nature of the prince's use of soldiers. Therefore, Li Tianzhi can only take the word of stability, and would rather not have military exploits, and never be greedy for exploits, risk the lives of soldiers, and not fight uncertain battles."

    "It's rare for General Li to be so humble." Yao Qisheng flattered him, but he secretly admired Fatty Lu's ability to employ people well. Putting Li Tianzhi, who had a stable personality, on the Zhejiang battlefield to overwhelm others, not only could he avoid capsizing in the gutter, but also  It can minimize the unnecessary consumption of the Fat Man Army on the secondary battlefield of Zhejiang.  Basically, it can be said that if Han Daren, Gao Dejie, and Wang Xulai were replaced on the southern front, with their combat style, it would definitely take half or even less time to end the Zhejiang war, but the casualties and consumption of the Fatty Army are definitely lower than  Lee Cheon-sik is much bigger.

    Li Tianzhi's prudent tactics once again hit Mahada's seven inches. Even though his own army had already retreated in large strides, the fat army still did not launch a general attack, but only advanced slowly and steadily in pursuit. Mahada inevitably groaned secretly, knowing that  If the Fatty Army attacked and pursued, the formation would inevitably be chaotic. As long as I kept the Qing army in order and retreated in an orderly manner, the loss would not be too great, and at the same time, it would cause more casualties to the Fatty Army.  However, the Fatty Army also maintained an orderly pursuit, which was more troublesome for the Qing Army. If the Fatty Army protruded and rushed into the queue, the whole army would collapse and be massacred wantonly by the Fatty Army.

    In desperation, Mahada had no choice but to order the generals at all levels to order the three armies to retreat slowly, resolutely maintain a dense formation, and never give the fat army a chance to make a surprise attack.  Therefore, Mahada's order was resolutely implemented. More than 15,000 Qing infantrymen worked hard to stabilize their formation and retreat while resisting the violent impact of the front team of the Fat Man Army, while slowly retreating eastward.  However, due to the different types of arms, the cavalry of the Qing army on the two wings of the battlefield could not do this. They were rushed to pieces by the ferocious fat cavalry, and gradually retreated to the east.  Free up your hands to gradually build up.

    After another meal time, the fat army cavalry team led by the traitor Itambu was completely gathered, and then charged, outflanked and detoured to the front of the retreating direction of the Qing army, and began to block the retreat of the Qing army with bows, arrows and muskets.  Seeing this scene, the Qing army was in a panic. Mahada urgently ordered his deputy Ekuna to lead the army forward to open the way, and rushed forward against the dense rain of arrowheads, trying to close the distance with Itambu for hand-to-hand combat. Itambu  Then he quickly commanded the cavalry of the Fat Man Army to turn their horses' heads, while trotting forward to keep a distance from the Ekuna army, while turning their heads and shooting arrows, shooting and killing the Ekuna army who were chasing their own army on foot.  In the middle, the Qing soldiers of Ekuna's team fell down howling, and gradually fled towards the two wings. Ekuna tried his best to restrain him, but it was still useless.

    After shooting down nearly half of Ekuna's former army, Itambu suddenly ordered the former army to turn around and launch a countercharge against Ekuna's army. More than 4,000 fat cavalry cavalry galloped westward like a torrent.  In an instant, more than a thousand infantrymen of Ekuna were swallowed up, and the sound of shouting and killing echoed in the sea of ??cavalry in an instant.I caressed a group of pirates called stinky red meat, but because they hadn¡¯t paid their military salary for more than four months, that group of pirates went to the sea to rob again last month, and abducted a large amount of ammunition from the Mangou Ningbo Navy.  Now Ningbo Mangou, regardless of the navy or the army, can only defend the city and the port at most, and can't use the strength to launch an attack. Due to the arrears of military pay and isolation and helplessness, morale has declined sharply.  "

    "Okay!" Li Tianzhi patted his thigh with great joy, and ordered: "Hurry up and send an order to Yang Yingyuan, let him lead the troops of the headquarters, chase and kill the defeated army who fled to Shangyu overnight, and must wipe out the remnants of Mangou on the bank of Cao'e River, and then  Then stay and rest, and leave the task of cleaning the battlefield to others."

    "General Li, General Yang's headquarters are the second and third batches of troops to enter the battlefield, and they are quite tired." Yao Qisheng reminded.

    "I have to chase after I'm tired. I have to keep the vitality for the prince." Li Tianzhi said solemnly: "The news that we are full of dogs in Shaoxing will soon reach Geng Jingzhong's ears. Geng Jingzhong's child is alone and helpless.  Hangzhou, I don¡¯t want to leave a new force just in case something happens in Hangzhou, what should I do?¡±

    "It's still General Li's careful calculation." Yao Qisheng smiled, no longer objected, and let Li Tianzhi's personal soldiers go out of the city to deliver orders.

    "General Li, Commander Yao, the guilty minister has an idea." Tian Fengji suggested: "The student has a little friendship with Chen Shikai, the vice-admiral of the Ningbo Navy who is full of dogs, and he has a good relationship with Giltabu. The guilty minister intends to write two letters to the  Zhenhai Port and Ningbo City, recruit them for the Zhou army."

    "Master Tian's plan is very clever, but in this way, your family in Shanxi?" Yao Qisheng asked hesitantly.

    "The criminals have already donated Shaoxing City to the Great Zhou Army, and the fire can no longer be covered with paper, so why should we worry about it?" Tian Fengji said with a wry smile: "I can only write another letter, and ask the Great Zhou Army to send it to you."  Shanxi, let's see if they can move and hide in time."

    Li Tianzhi was silent, sympathizing with Tian Fengji's current situation, and then nodded vigorously and said: "Well, please, Mr. Tian, ??please repair the books for your family as soon as possible. I will immediately arrange for a fast boat to send you to Hangzhou overnight. Please send Mr. Tian to you as quickly as possible."  sent his family letter to Shanxi."

    "General Li, please ask your lord to seal the Qiantang River tightly, cut off the connection between Shaoxing and Geng Jingzhong, and let Geng Jingzhong know as little as possible about the situation on the Shaoxing battlefield." Yao Qisheng reminded Li Tianzhi, and then Yao Qisheng turned his eyes and immediately turned to Tian Fengji and said  : "Master Tian, ??can I trouble you to write another letter of appeal to Geng Jingzhong? Just say that we attacked Shaoxing City fiercely, you fought very hard to defend the city, and the food and grass in the city can only last for a month at most. Please ask him  Fulfill the covenant, quickly send troops to rescue Shaoxing City, or encircle Wei and rescue Zhao to support it."

    "Of course no problem." Tian Fengji smiled and replied: "I signed the covenant with Geng Jingzhong. Of course he believed the letter I wrote for help." (To be continued.
