The 20th Corps of the People's Army had just suffered a disastrous defeat, and then learned the sad news that the supply unit was attacked and wiped out, which can be described as worse.
General Xiaoqi Qin Feng led nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses to conquer the Qinghe Army. He set out with high spirits, but now he is caught in a dilemma.
Although Qin Feng ordered to block the news of the annihilation of the supply troops, he knew very well that the news would leak out sooner or later, and everyone would know.
And at that time, there will be panic among the people, which will directly affect the combat effectiveness of the troops.
The best way now is to quickly withdraw to Anling County while the army is still fighting, and wait for the arrival of the food and grass transportation from the provincial capital before launching a new round of attack.
But if they ordered a retreat now, it would be tantamount to abandoning Qin Lie's troops who were encircled by the Moaning River.
But if they don't retreat now, they will run the risk of running out of food. Once they run out of food, the consequences will be disastrous.
The generals had already quarreled, but Xiaoqi General Qin Feng was still hesitating, because he was really unwilling to withdraw in such a disheveled manner.
When Xiaoqi General Qin Feng faced a difficult decision, the Qinghe Army had just won a battle, and the morale of the whole army was high.
"Master Banner, after preliminary statistics, we have wiped out more than 4,000 people from the Dynasty Army, captured more than 8,000 people, and some routs have hid in the mountains and forests. We are hurrying to arrest them."
The Qinghe Army not only rescued Liu Changshan's troops who were heavily surrounded by militia troops, but also annihilated and captured a large number of militia troops. It can be said that they turned defeat into victory and achieved considerable results.
"Brothers played well, playing the military might of our first banner regiment!"
Their First Banner Regiment was able to defeat tens of thousands of militia troops head-on, and Zhou Ba, the head of the Banner Regiment, was also in a good mood.
After hearing Zhou Ba's praise from the banner commander, the sturdy banner battalion commanders also showed knowing smiles.
Their First Banner Regiment is Chen Ziang's direct lineage and ace troop. Although there were some losses this time, after such a victory, the losses can be ignored.
"Our injured brothers must be treated well, and the list of brothers who died in battle must also be reported. The remains are cremated on the spot, and the ashes are brought back to their families. They cannot be left to die in the wilderness."
"Officers at all levels count their achievements as soon as possible, and after the battle is over, they will be rewarded based on their achievements."
"The prisoners of war will be detained in Changze Town, and the Civil and Military Affairs Commission will dispatch capable personnel to screen and educate them."
"This time is just an appetizer. Qin Feng's dynasty army is still strong. Let the brothers take a good rest and summarize. Don't hang your tail to the sky. There will be fierce battles ahead."
Although Zhou Ba was born as a bandit, he followed Chen Ziang in the northern and southern expeditions, and has grown up in the tempering of the war.
Although his temperament is still a little fiery, but now he is commanding a banner regiment of 20,000 troops, which is more than enough.
The head of the banner, Zhou Ba, issued a series of effective orders to properly handle the post-war affairs.
After receiving the military order, the battalion commanders of each banner took their leave one after another and left. Soon, only Zhou Ba and Liu Changshan, the battalion commander of the Second Banner Battalion, were left in the military tent.
Liu Changshan, the commander of the Second Banner Battalion, had a bloody battle. His whole body was covered in blood, and his arms were tied with blood-oozing bandages. He stood there with his head down, his face full of depression and self-blame.
The Second Banner Battalion led by Liu Changshan was responsible for raiding the camp of the 20th Corps of the People's Army at night.
However, one of their thousand-man troops was ambushed by the militia, and all of them were destroyed.
Liu Changshan originally wanted to lead his troops to snatch the corpse back, but he was ambushed again, putting the Second Banner Battalion in deep danger.
If Zhou Ba, the head of the banner, led the other three banner battalions to defeat the civilian army in time, I am afraid that the second banner battalion would have to be removed.
Although the number of the Second Banner Battalion has been kept, but after repeated defeats, the Second Banner Battalion has already existed in name only.
Not only the Deputy Banner Battalion Commander of the Second Banner Battalion was killed in battle, three of the five thousand generals were killed in battle, and the casualties were as high as 80%.
Now, apart from the wounded soldiers lying in the wounded barracks who could not move, there are only less than 500 people left in the Second Banner Battalion who are fully fighting and have combat effectiveness.
The Second Banner Battalion of the First Banner Regiment was full of 5,000 soldiers. It took only one day, and now they are directly disabled.
Although it is said that winning or losing on the battlefield is a common matter for military strategists, even a victorious general cannot win every battle.
Since the Qinghe Army arrived at Yunxi Mansion and reorganized, this is still their loss.?The biggest ever.
"Master Banner Leader, I am guilty, please kill me."
Banner Battalion Commander Liu Changshan saw Zhou Ba sitting there silent, he raised his head to break the dull atmosphere in the military tent.
"Kill it?"
"Is there such a cheap thing in the world?!"
Seeing Liu Changshan, who was covered in tattered military uniform, Zhou Ba scolded with a straight face.
"I handed over five thousand brothers to you, but now, there are less than five hundred people who can stand!"
Zhou Ba stood up, angrily walked up to Liu Changshan, pointed at his nose, and questioned him loudly.
"Are you saying that you are worthy of me and those dead brothers?!"
"How do you want me to explain to their families, how do you want me to explain to Deputy Army Commander Li and the general?!"
Facing Zhou Ba's soul-piercing loud questioning, Banner Battalion Commander Liu Changshan's face was full of guilt, his head was lowered, and he was speechless.
"As a banner battalion commander, can you use your brain when doing things!"
"Going to grab the body in broad daylight, thanks to your thinking!"
Zhou Ba stood angrily in front of Liu Changshan, pointing at his nose and cursing.
Facing Zhou Ba's responsibility and scolding, Liu Changshan, who felt ashamed, lowered his head and remained silent.
"Master Banner Leader, I was wrong, let me apologize with death."
"If you die, you will know death! Are you so promising?!"
"The general promoted you and trained you. Now that you have lost the battle, you want to evade responsibility and die?!"
"It's in vain that I value you so much, ask yourself, are you worthy of me?!"
"Remember for me, you are my Zhou Ba's soldier, you are my first banner regiment, even if you die in the future, you will die on the battlefield, don't die like a fool!"
Zhou Ba was really disappointed with Liu Changshan this time, because he held Liu Changshan in high regard, but Liu Changshan lost a battle and lost so many troops.
"Master Banner Commander, Wang Mingyang, First Banner Battalion Commander, please see me!"
At this moment, the voice of Wang Mingyang, the commander of the First Banner Battalion, sounded outside.
"Come in¡ª¡ª"
"What's up?"
Zhou Ba stared at the First Banner Battalion Commander Wang Mingyang and said.
"Master Banner Commander, Brother Liu has hard work as well as merit. Although he lost this time, please give him a chance to make meritorious deeds and atone for his sins."
Wang Mingyang looked at Liu Changshan, the commander of the Second Banner Battalion with his head down, who was determined to die, and pleaded for him.
"Master Banner Commander, give Battalion Commander Liu Qi a chance to atone for his crimes." At this time, the voice of the Third Banner Battalion Commander also sounded outside the military tent.
"Master Banner Commander, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, I implore you to spare his life." The Fourth Banner Battalion Commander also spoke.
"Get out of here, Lao Tzu!"
After Zhou Ba heard the voice outside, he couldn't help cursing angrily. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
