"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1012
Li Changqing and Chief of Staff Zhou Han surrounded the unfolded map, also frowning, thinking about countermeasures.
The Fen River is close at hand, but as they are now being attacked, they realize that there may be a huge risk ahead.
Once they reached the bank of the Fen River, if they were blocked before and followed by pursuers, coupled with the blocking of the Fen River, they must be dead without a burial.
If there is enough time, they can send people to investigate along the Fen River, and then determine whether to continue northward.
But the pursuers behind them were not far away from them, and they broke through hastily just now, and they didn't know how many enemies were behind them.
And since the enemy was able to break through and surround them, there must not be too few troops.
"We can't take our brothers to take risks. Once the enemy deploys heavy troops in front, the bank of the Fen River will be our death."
After looking at the map for a while, Chief of Staff Zhou Han was the first to break the silence. After all, he is also a warrior who has fought on the battlefield, and he knows that some risks are okay, but some risks are not.
"It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Once the pursuers come up, we are not familiar with this place. Once we are surrounded, it will be bad."
Li Changqing did not expect that they would suddenly encounter such a dangerous situation, not only a test for the advancing column, but also a test for him as the commander.
Fortunately, Li Changqing followed Chen Ziang to fight in the north and south, and fought a lot of battles, which can be regarded as a subtle influence.
Although their situation is extremely bad now, as the commander, he did not mess up his hands and feet, but dealt with it calmly.
"We lack intelligence, and the current situation is unclear. I mean, deal with the enemy here first, and then decide on the next move."
Li Changqing is unwilling to retreat to Luyang Province, not to mention that they have already arrived in Lancang Province, and if they go back to Luyang Province, they have to go through the River Province, which is too unrealistic.
They are now deeply trapped in the enemy-occupied area, and they have to rely on themselves for everything, and they have to find their own way and find a way out.
"Well, let's take the enemy around first, and then get some intelligence."
?The sudden attack also disrupted Li Changqing's original plan for a march, so they had to improvise.
Fortunately, the brothers of the Qinghe Army, especially those of the Guards Banner Regiment, have undergone devil-like training on weekdays. Whether it is marching speed or combat effectiveness, they are top-notch.
After Li Changqing and Chief of Staff Zhou Han finalized the plan, they immediately changed direction and headed east.
At the same time, they also sent scouts to investigate the Fenhe area in the north and collect intelligence.
Not long after, a large number of Zhendong troops chased up and arrived at the place where Li Changqing and the others had rested for a short time.
Although the Zhendong Army and the Qinghe Army had a short fight in the forest, and the Qinghe Army also left behind more than two hundred corpses of their brothers.
However, the brothers who advanced into the column of the Qinghe Army have already left all the things related to the Qinghe Army in Luyang Province, and they are now dressed like a wandering rebel army.
Therefore, the Zhendong Army did not realize that they were facing an elite force of the Qinghe Army.
It was precisely because of such a strategic misjudgment that they did not raise their vigilance further.
If they had known that they were facing an elite Qinghe army, they would have urgently called for help and mobilized a large army to encircle and suppress them.
Under the leadership of Li Changqing, the Qinghe Army went around in circles with the Zhendong Army's chasing troops in a radius of more than a hundred miles.
After a few days, the chasing soldiers of the Zhendong Army were exhausted enough, and they all followed behind to eat ashes.
While Li Changqing and the Zhendong Army were going around in circles, the scouts of the Qinghe Army also arrived at the Fenhe line, and found that there were indeed a large number of Zhendong Army guards here.
"It seems that the Fen River has been blocked by the enemy, and we can't get through it for the time being."
? Li Changqing also looked solemn when he learned that the Zhendong Army was stationed along the Fenhe River.
"Are we going to withdraw?"
Chief of Staff Zhou Han was not reconciled either. Seeing that he had crossed the Fen River and traveled a few hundred miles north to Baishan Province, if he withdrew now, his previous efforts would be in vain.
"No, we can't withdraw now."
Li Changqing still has a clear understanding in his mind.??Because it is more difficult for them to go back to Luyang Province than to go forward.
"Let's go west, capture Fenhe Mansion, and mobilize the enemy first."
Li Changqing's fist was on a black dot marking Fenhe Mansion on the ground.
"Occupy Fenhe Mansion?"
"Yes, we captured Fenhe Mansion, wouldn't they come to the rescue?"
"And we can also resupply in Fenhe Mansion."
"What if the Fenhe Mansion is stationed with heavy troops?" Chief of Staff Zhou Han asked worriedly.
Li Changqing explained: "If there are heavy troops stationed, then let's go to the provincial capital of Lancang. Our main purpose is to mobilize them, not to confront them head-on."
"Well, without further delay, we will act overnight." Zhou Han agreed with Li Changqing's opinion.
Following the order, that night, nearly 20,000 Qinghe army brothers held torches and galloped westward along the main road, without any intention of hiding their whereabouts at all.
"What, the bandits went west again?"
When the general of the Zhendong Army who was in charge of the pursuit heard that the Qinghe Army was heading west again, his face was livid with anger.
In the past few days, the Qinghe army has been moving from east to west, playing them like monkeys, running east during the day, and heading west at night.
The Zhendong Army who followed behind to eat ashes also hated the Qinghe Army, and they had never seen such an army that could run.
"Based on their pee nature, maybe they will suddenly turn east again during the day, we can't be fooled."
"Pass my order, all the troops guard the towns facing east, let's wait for a rabbit!"
The general of the Zhendong Army was also dazed by the Qinghe Army's nose kissing. He made a strategic arrangement based on the experience of the previous few days, but he never thought that he miscalculated this time.
The next day, they waited until noon and saw no sign of the Qinghe Army turning around and heading east. Instead, they scouted Qingqi to report, and the Qinghe Army rushed directly towards Fenhe Mansion.
After hearing the news, the general of Zhendong Army's face turned green, what the hell is this.
You must know that in order to eliminate this group of bandits, all the troops in the surrounding areas have been transferred to his command.
The garrison of Fenhe Mansion is naturally also transferred, and now there are only a few hundred defenders in Fenhe Mansion.
Thinking of the tens of thousands of bandits rushing towards Fenhe Mansion, the general of Zhendong Army did not dare to think about the consequences.
"Don't be dazed, rescue Fenhe Mansion!"
The general of Zhendong Army was also impatient, he hurriedly led his troops, and hurriedly marched towards the direction of Fenhe Mansion, praying that the defenders of Fenhe Mansion could hold on for a while until they arrived. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
