Dexing Mansion, Qinghe Army Temporary Headquarters.
? Inside and outside the temporary command headquarters, the sturdy guards pressed their hands on the handles of their knives and stood erect everywhere, staring vigilantly at the soldiers passing by.
The scouts came back one after another, and the messengers hurriedly left with Chen Ziang's orders.
In the dim hall, the newly appointed staff members are busy busy, constantly modifying the enemy situation everywhere according to the scouts' reports.
"The sixteenth scout team fought against the black cavalry reconnaissance cavalry thirty miles east of Dexing mansion, and three people were killed."
"More than 300 black cavalry soldiers were found in the northeast of Dexing Mansion."
"The enemy situation was found in the Lehe area to the southeast of Dexing Mansion. About a thousand black cavalry soldiers were burning, killing and looting."
Chief of Staff Li Qiye kept passing the collected information to Chen Ziang as a basis for decision-making.
When Chen Ziang heard good or bad news, his complexion also became cloudy and uncertain.
The situation was even worse than he had imagined. Nearly 200,000 Qinghe Army troops collapsed overnight, which was beyond his expectation.
The main force of each battalion of the Qinghe Army has almost been dispersed now, and the Qinghe Army stationed in various places have also fled one after another, like a mess of scattered sand.
Now he has gathered more than 20,000 defeated soldiers, but these people have just lost a battle, their morale is low, and they are full of fear of the dynasty black cavalry, so it is difficult to display their combat effectiveness.
"When will the soldiers and horses stationed in various places arrive at Dexing Mansion?"
In the name of the Temporary Headquarters, Chen Zi'ang ordered the Qinghe Army troops stationed in various parts of Qinghe Province to gather at Dexing Mansion.
Because under such circumstances, they can only stabilize the situation if they are united, otherwise they will be defeated by the Black Cavalry Army one by one.
"General, we have already sent people to press for inquiries, but many troops did not buy it. They either swept away their belongings and fled, or dispersed in a crowd, and some people were waiting and watching." Li Qiye, the chief of staff, sighed.
The Qinghe army stationed in various places ranges from hundreds to thousands of people. Once assembled, the number will be at least tens of thousands.
But now, facing the order of Chen Ziang, the temporary command, these people simply don't buy it.
"General, do you want me to lead the troops to forcibly recruit them?"
Zhang Bao has a violent temper. When he heard that some people did not dare to obey orders and came to assemble, he immediately became murderous and wanted to take people to forcibly recruit them.
"Forget it, if they don't want to come and assemble, let them go."
After thinking for a while, Chen Ziang gave up the idea of ??forcibly incorporating the Qinghe troops stationed in various places.
Because now their main enemy is the army of the dynasty. Under such a situation, they can no longer fight among themselves.
As long as the Qinghe army stationed in various places does not cause trouble for them, they stand still and wait or flee to a safe place, and Chen Ziang has no time to take care of them.
"How is the situation of the reorganized brothers?" Chen Ziang asked again.
"General, according to your instructions, we have recruited many backbone veterans from the Ninth Battalion to enrich them. The officers are also ours. We have completely controlled the gathered brothers."
Li Qiye said worriedly: "It's just that their morale is low now, and they have become frightened birds. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover their combat power in a short time. Once the dynasty's army comes over, I'm afraid they will disperse again."
"They were only temporarily defeated by the dynasty army and lost their souls. Once their morale recovers, they will be a strong army again."
Chen Ziang said: "It seems that we have to find a chance to win a battle to boost morale."
Li Qiye hastily persuaded: "General, please think again. Given the current situation, it is not appropriate for us to go head-to-head with the dynasty's army."
"Don't worry, I won't take risks. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
Although Chen Ziang thought about fighting a battle to restore morale, he also knew that although the number of these defeated soldiers was large, they had already become frightened birds, and if they failed, there would be another collapse.
"Where are the officers who broke out?"
"Placed in the city, without your general's order, they can't go out of the room."
Chen Ziang nodded. This is equivalent to house arrest, but he wanted to control the troops, which was a last resort.
Chen Ziang ordered: "Don't neglect them, and restore their freedom after the war."
"No!"
At this moment, two scouts rushed into the temporary headquarters from the outside.
"General, we have already checked out the situation in the provincial capital." The scouts opened their chapped lips after saluting Chen Ziang and the others.
"How is the situation in the provincial capital?"
Chen Ziang is now eager to know the situation in the provincial capital, and when he heard this, he immediately straightened up.
"General, Marshal Zhang and Deputy Marshal Xu have been killed by the dynasty, their heads have been taken to claim credit, and their bodies are hanging on the tower." A scout said in a low voice.
"ah!"
After hearing what the scouts said, everyone gasped, and their expressions became extremely ugly.
They didn't expect the two coaches whose whereabouts were unknown to die like this, and they suddenly felt empty in their hearts, as if the sky had fallen.
"The more than 50,000 brothers captured by our army were all slaughtered, and there were piles of corpses outside the city." The scout wiped away his tears and continued.
"The Dynasty army is so vicious that they slaughtered 50,000 of my brothers!"
"If you don't avenge this revenge, you swear you won't be a human being!"
Zhang Bao's eyes were also red, and he slammed his fist on the table. Everyone's faces were full of anger.
Chen Ziang never expected that the Dynasty army would be so bloodthirsty that they beheaded more than 50,000 people.
Although he was horrified in his heart, Chen Ziang, now the coach, kept a calm face.
"Where is Deputy Marshal Chen from Qingyang Mansion, any news?"
"From the black cavalry sentinels we captured, we learned that Vice Marshal Chen is still in Qingyang Mansion, but now tens of thousands of Black Cavalry troops have left the provincial capital and headed towards Qingyang Mansion to attack Vice Marshal Chen. ' replied the scout.
After Chen Zi'ang inquired again, he waved his hand and let the two scouts go down to rest and receive the reward.
From the mouth of the scouts, Chen Ziang got further definite news, which gave him more control over the situation.
It can be said that it is a bad news that Marshal Zhang Dayuan and Deputy Marshal Xu Fu were killed, and the 50,000 Qinghe army was beheaded.
But to Chen Ziang's relief, the deputy commander Chen Ru is still on the front line of Qingyang Mansion, and he still has more than 50,000 elite troops of the Qinghe Army in his hands.
It's just that the deputy commander Chen Ru is also in a very dangerous situation now, and it is very likely that he will be attacked from both sides by the army of the dynasty, or the whole army will be wiped out.
? Chen Ru had the kindness to know Chen Ziang and took care of him a lot. Chen Ziang had always been very grateful to him.
Following the deaths of Marshal Zhang Dayuan and Deputy Marshal Xu Fu, Chen Ru became the only remaining Marshal of the Qinghe Army.
If Chen Ru had another problem, then even if Chen Ziang could turn the tide, with his position and prestige, he would not be able to gather all the Qinghe army and continue to fight against the dynasty army.
Now the Qinghe army stationed in various places are still watching, turning a blind eye to Chen Ziang's order to gather them.
Once the deputy commander Chen Ru is defeated, the army of the dynasty can turn around and sweep across the entire Qinghe province with ease, and they will be defeated one by one.
"We have to rescue Vice Marshal Chen."
After careful consideration, Chen Zi'ang felt that Chen Ru must be rescued because of emotion and reason. If the venerable Chen Ru was killed again, then the Qinghe army would really fall and be scattered. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
