Chapter 1805： Wu Jiang's vigilance

Tunyun City, the largest city in the north of the Guda Dynasty, was also the city where the Guda Dynasty placed the most defenders.

There are five million defenders!

The leader of the army was the commander of the Anxi Army of the Guda dynasty, Gu Wuzhong.

Half a year ago, Gu Wuzhong led the elite Anxi army of the Guda dynasty to attack Hezhang City, but the result was a big defeat under Hezhang City. Not only was the Anxi army wiped out, but also a dozen cities were lost.

Even the heavy city Hai Jicheng fell under Meng Tian's army.

Ordinarily, such defeated Gu Wuzhong must be condemned.

However, because Gu Wuzhong was the most powerful general of the Guda dynasty and the military commander second only to Shangzhenshu in the Guda dynasty, he was not convicted.

Instead, he was transferred to Tunyun City to guard the northern border of the Guda Dynasty.

"General, the spies reported back that Meng Tian still has less than two days to go to Tunyun City." The lieutenant below said with a nervous expression.

After all, Gu Wuzhong was defeated by Meng Tian in He Zhangcheng before, and now Meng Tian is leading the attack again.

Gu Wuzhong is really more than 700 years old, but because of his martial arts strength, he looks like a middle-aged man in his forties.

He heard the lieutenant's report, but ignored it, instead staring at the holy order in his hand.

This was the order that the emperor had just passed directly to him, causing him to lead the five million troops of Tunyun City, as well as the troops of several other important towns in the northern border, to retreat to Huang Changguan.

Prepare to fight to the death with the army of the Nanyan Dynasty at Huang Changguan!

Gu Wuzhong was very dissatisfied with the emperor's sacred order. In his opinion, he had Tunyun City and nine million troops in the north, and he was completely qualified to fight head-on with Meng Tian's army.

There is even a chance to wash away the shame of being annihilated by the Anxi Army outside the city of Hezhang.

But thinking of the realm of Meng Tian's superb generals and the two superb generals Wei Qinghuo Qu Bing would be lieutenants, which made Gu Wuzhong feel like a drum.

After all, he is not a super general.

"General, what shall we do now?" The lieutenant below looked at Gu Wuzhong and asked.

Gu Wuzhong did not answer immediately, but after a long silence, he let out a long sigh: "Oh!"

"The order continues and the four million troops behind Tunyun City are ordered to immediately retreat to Huangchang Pass, and we will retreat in a day."

"This……"

The lieutenant hesitated and said: "General, did we really retreat like this?"

"What else can I do without retreating?"

Gu Wuzhong looked helpless, and said: "Could it be possible that you can still fight Meng Tian and the three superb generals?"

When the words fell silent, the lieutenant stopped speaking.

They all know what realm the top military commander is, and that is not something they can handle.

"Okay, let's go down to arrange a retreat!" Gu Wuzhong sighed, "It's not that we have no chance. We can fight the enemy to the death at Huang Changguan!"

"Finally will follow the order!"

Under Gu Wuzhong's order, the entire northern army of the Guda Dynasty began to retreat.

Gu Wuzhong is also a wise man. He didn't let all the troops retreat together, worrying that Meng Tian would catch up with him and cause a change.

He left the five million troops in Tunyun City to retreat one day at a time, so that Meng Tian would not dare to chase him rashly.

Give the other four million troops a chance to retreat.

After the four million troops retreated to a certain position, he led the army of Tunyun City to retreat. The two sides covered each other to ensure that Meng Tian did not dare to chase him rashly, and to ensure the smooth retreat of the army to Huangchang Pass.

"Most are unified, the spies returned news that the enemy troops in the northern border of the Guda Dynasty, except for the five million defenders in Tunyun City, all other troops have begun to retreat."

Meng Tian got the movement of the northern army of the Guda Dynasty in the first time.

"It's quite decisive."

Meng Tian smiled after receiving the news, and said, "It seems that they are determined to fight my army at Huang Changguan."

"It's a pity, it's not so easy to withdraw to Huang Changguan safely!"

"Send the order to Huo Qubing, let him immediately lead his troops to intercept and kill the enemy's retreating army, and kill the enemy as much as possible, and absolutely cannot allow the enemy to withdraw safely to Huang Changguan.

"Yes!"

Meng Tian immediately arranged for someone to spread the news to Huo Qubing.

When Huo Qubing, who had just retreated from the western border of the Guda Dynasty, got the news from Meng Tian, ​​he happened to enter the northern border of the Guda Dynasty.

"General, according to the information we have received, the enemy's retreat speed is very fast, we want to completely intercept and kill the enemy, there is only one position!"

The lieutenant pointed to the Changyi Plain on the map and said: "The Changyi Plain is the only large plain in the northern border of the Gudak Dynasty, which is very suitable for cavalry operations."

Huo Qubing looked at the map, nodded slightly, and said, "How are Jin Yiwei and the Shadow Guard?"

"Return to the general, according to the information sent by Jin Yiwei and Yingmeiwei, they completely blocked the news channel from the west to the north of the Gudak dynasty and ensure that no news from the west reaches the north."

"The remnants of the enemy troops who withdrew from the western border that we destroyed before did not go to the north under their drive. Now the northern border does not know the whereabouts of our cavalry."

"But they are also reminding us that if the delay is too long, the enemy will definitely know the position of our cavalry, so we need to fight quickly." The lieutenant reported.

Huo Qubing nodded and said, "Send the command to the army, go to Changyi Plain immediately!"

If the enemy knows where they are, it will be useless for them to go to Changyi Plain, but since the enemy doesn't know their whereabouts, Changyi Plain will surely become a place of death for the enemy!

A few days later, Huo Qubing led the troops to the Changyi Plain, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

On the other side, the four million troops who retreated from the northern border of the Guda Dynasty were getting closer and closer to the Changyi Plain.

"How far is it to the Changyi Plain?" The general responsible for the retreat of the four million troops was named Gu Yanming, who was also a member of the Guda dynasty.

"There is still less than three days away." The lieutenant replied.

The ancient Yanming pondered for a moment, and said, "Is there any news about Huo Qubing from the Southern Yan Dynasty?"

"Not yet." The lieutenant shook his head slightly, looked at Gu Yanming, and said, "General, are you worried about Huo Qubing's cavalry?"

"How can I not worry!" Gu Yanming sighed and said, "If I were Huo Qubing, I would lead the cavalry on the Changyi Plain, the only way to wait for the enemy's arrival, if I knew that the northern army would retreat. Then launch a surprise attack."

"On the plain, the iron cavalry is extremely powerful. Even with only one million cavalry, the battle can be ended within three hours against four million infantry."

"This……"

The lieutenant looked hesitant and said: "General, this is unlikely!"

"According to the information we received earlier, Huo Qubing's army intercepted and killed strategic materials in the West. Although the West has been defeated at the moment, there are more than three million troops retreating to the Huangchang Pass."

"Even if Huo Qubing wants to intercept and kill the army, he should choose the defeated western army with low combat effectiveness instead of our elite northern soldiers!"
