V2.Chapter 141

"Do not go south." Yuan Tian frowned and said, "our army can only withdraw to the West and go to Xishan county."

Han Zhong was stunned for a moment, nodded again and again, and replied, "yes, yes, yes! Xishan county has a dangerous terrain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the wind army pursues the past, it can't take advantage of it."

Xishan county is located in the northwest of Mozambique. It is a very special County in Mozambique. One is the special terrain, the other is the special head of the county. The head of Xishan county is Shao Yu, who belongs to the same family as Shaofang, but their blood relationship is far away. If you really want to trace it back, you should trace it back to their xuanzu generation.

Shaoyu's xuanzu and Shaofang's xuanzu were close brothers. At that time, according to the succession order, Shaoyu's xuanzu should inherit the throne of mo. however, Shaoyu's xuanzu lacked interest in the throne and didn't think he had the ability to govern the country well. He offered his talents to Shaofang's xuanzu. After the latter ascended the throne, in order to thank his brother for his resignation, he appointed Shaoyu xuanzu as the Duke of Xishan and took charge of Xishan county, Moreover, his title and official position can be inherited from generation to generation to protect his future generations and prosperity.

From the generation of Shao Yu's xuanzu, it was Xishan Hou. Later, his great grandfather, grandfather and father passed on from generation to generation. Until him, all five generations were the head of Xishan county. It can be said that the status of Shaoyu family in Xishan county has long been deeply rooted and unshakable. Its reputation among the people is even higher than that of the monarch of mo. the decree issued by Shaoyu family in Xishan county is more effective than that of King mo. Xishan County seems to have become a country within the state.

When Shao Fang massacred the Shao family, he also thought of Shaoyu and tried to kill him several times, but when he thought about it carefully, he had no choice but to give up. On the one hand, Shaoyu's foundation in Xishan county is too deep, on the other hand, the terrain of Xishan county is too special.

Xishan county is surrounded by mountains. The whole county is like trapped in a huge basin. To enter the county, there is only xishankou, and the Fengyang city built in it blocks the xishankou tightly. In addition, Xishan county has more than 200000 soldiers. The county has fertile land and rich products. The grain production of the whole county is not only self-sufficient, but also handed over millions of stones to the court of Mozambique every year. Xishan county needs grain, money, soldiers and soldiers. The terrain is steep and has both attack and defense. When Shaofang's behavior is the most crazy, he didn't dare to attack Shaoyu easily.

Now yuan Tian proposes to retreat to Xishan County, which makes Han Zhong feel enlightened. Yes, withdrawing to Xishan county can lead the Feng army away from the hinterland of Mozambique. If the Feng army dares to attack Xishan County, it will be looking for hardship and death.

He said in a hurry, "give orders quickly and the whole army will retreat to Xishan County!"

Yuan Tian shook his head, looked forward and said, "the front army can't withdraw. Now we can only take the middle army and the rear army to retreat!"

"What?" Han Zhong was surprised and subconsciously stared. There were 100000 soldiers in the former army. If only the middle army and the rear army were withdrawn, wouldn't all 100000 soldiers in the former army die in the hands of Feng army?

Yuan Tian said reluctantly, "in the current form, someone must stay and hold the wind army, otherwise we can't withdraw to Xishan county at all, and we will be chased and killed by the wind army."

Han Zhong was speechless for a long time. Yuan Tian didn't have time to wait for him to make a decision. He said, "adult Han, this is not the time to be indecisive." As he spoke, he shouted to the generals around him, "send orders to the middle and rear troops to retreat to the West. In addition, send orders to the front army to fight the wind army to the end. Our reinforcements will arrive immediately."

"Yes, general!" The generals looked puzzled, but they promised one after another and ordered them to leave.

Yuan Tian used the method of abandoning soldiers and protecting cars, sacrificed the former army and withdrew 150000 central and rear troops.

Tang Yin, who was sitting on the periphery of the battlefield, saw clearly the move of the Mo army. He immediately understood the intention of the Mo army, and then sent a command to the Hu Wei army to annihilate the remaining Mo army. Then without chasing the enemy, he went directly south to Jueqing Castle Peak to solve the siege of the plain army, while he led his direct subordinate army to chase and kill the withdrawn yuan Tian and Han Zhong.

Yuan Tian and Han Zhong led the 150000 Mozambican troops. In the process of retreat, they found a large number of wind troops behind them chasing after them. They quickly ordered the whole army to throw away their luggage, carry only rations, March lightly, and retreat to Xishan county at full speed.

The withdrawal of the Mozambican army was miserable enough. All kinds of military funds and armaments ran and threw away. In order to reduce the burden, many soldiers threw away their armor and weapons. 150000 people had no fighting spirit and fled to the West like a plate of loose sand.

Feng Jun ignored the large amount of baggage thrown away by the Mozambican army. Tang Yin had already made up his mind to wipe out the main force of the Mozambican army. The chase between the two sides lasted from morning to noon. The distance between the two sides was not far away, but closer and closer.

Finally, Yuan Tian had no choice but to divide another 20000 Mozambican troops to stop the wind army and create time for the main force to escape.

How can the Mozambican army, which has only 20000 fighting spirit and whose morale has fallen to the bottom of the valley, resist the direct subordinate army like a wolf?

From the very beginning, the war between the two sides turned into a unilateral massacre. The directly subordinate army seemed to be in a whirlwind and scattered the 20000 Mozambican army. Then within an hour of the war, almost no one of the 20000 Mozambican army escaped, either died in the war or was captured by the directly subordinate army.

Tang Yin had no time or energy to take care of these Mo Army prisoners. He made a quick decision and ordered all of them to be executed.

His words made tens of thousands of Mo army captives become ghosts under the sword of the wind army, and the severed heads cut off were piled up like a mountain.

However, the death of these 20000 Mo soldiers is not worthless. At least, it has greatly slowed down the pursuit speed of Feng army and won a lot of time for more than 100000 people of Yuan Tian and Han Zhong.

The chase war between the two sides continued. The directly subordinate army led by Tang Yin pursued the enemy for two days and nights. Finally, he saw the shadow of the Mozambican army again.

When the Fengjun people were excited and thought they could wipe out the main force of the enemy in one go, the Mozambican army fled into a long and narrow valley.

In fact, the valley is not narrow. It's OK to run five or six carriages side by side. It's just too deep and the peaks on both sides are too high, which makes the valley look narrow.

After chasing the enemy so far, Tang Yin urgently ordered the whole army to pause and rest in place. He will come to the valley with many winds and look up.

The valley is winding and bottomless. The peaks on both sides are towering into the clouds, and the cliffs are as smooth as a mirror. If there are ambulances buried on the peaks on both sides, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Tang Yin looked at it, took a breath and drank on his side, "where are Rakuten and Aijia?"

"The end will come!" Rakuten and Aijia both urged the horse to come behind Tang Yin and step in to salute.

Tang Yin pointed to the valley ahead and asked, "where is this place? Why is it so steep?"

"Report back to the king. This place is called xishankou. It is also the only way to enter Xishan County of Mozambique. Through the valley, it should be Fengyang city of Xishan county." Aijia has done enough preparation work. Tang Yin asked, and she blurted out without thinking.

"It turned out that we chased the enemy to Xishan county." Tang Yin didn't know much about Xishan County, but paid attention to this place when looking at the map of Mo country. Xishan county is located in the west of Mo state. Although it borders Yu state, the whole county is surrounded by mountains and cannot directly lead to Yu state. In addition, this county is remote and has no strategic value, so it is not among the primary targets of Tang Yin's attack.

"It seems that the remnant of the Mo army has long planned to escape to Xishan County for refuge." Lotte zhengse said: "Mo army tried to use the dangerous terrain of Xishan county to stop our pursuit."

"Hum! Even if Mo Jun escapes to the ends of the earth this time, I will find them out!" Tang Yin sneered and said, "send a strong man to the top of the mountain to see if there is an ambush. After finding out, report it to me immediately."

"Yes! King!" Rakuten and Aijia answered, and then sent elite spies from Tianyan and geonet to climb the mountain.

It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do. The peaks on both sides of the xishankou are high and steep, so it's very difficult to climb. Lotte and Aijia sent more than 30 spies each. They didn't return to the Fengjun camp until it was dark, and they didn't retreat all over. Twelve heavenly eyes and 15 underground nets were damaged. These sacrificed spies didn't die at the hands of the Mozambican army, But fell and died while climbing the mountain. Fortunately, they have brought back accurate information. No ambush was found on the peaks on both sides of the valley.

Tang Yin nodded after hearing the details. It is understandable that nearly half of the elite spies of Tianyan and geonet fell dead in the process of climbing. It is conceivable that it is difficult for ordinary people to climb to the top of the mountain. Such steep mountains are not suitable for large-scale ambush.

He ordered the whole army to enter the valley of death and rest the next night.

That night, the directly subordinate army did not dare to discredit and enter the valley. First, it was unfamiliar with the terrain and was afraid of being ambushed by the enemy. Second, the whole army was exhausted after chasing the enemy for days, and needed time to rest and rectify.

The directly subordinate army did not attack hastily, but the Mozambican army sneaked out of the valley at night and attacked the Fengjun camp.

The Mozambican army did not expect this sneak camp. These days, the Mozambican army has been running after the Mozambican army. It was never expected that the Mozambican army dared to take the initiative to attack.

The directly subordinate army was unprepared by the sneak attack of the Mozambican army. Fortunately, the scale of the sneak attack of the Mozambican army was small and failed to cause too much losses to the Fengjun army. However, after a chaotic war, more than 2000 casualties were caused to the directly subordinate army.

Tang Yin was furious when he learned about it. As soon as dawn broke the next day, Tang Yin ordered the whole army to attack, break through xishankou and take Fengyang city directly.

The troops under the direct command, who thought they had been beaten in the face by the Mozambican army, came fiercely and rushed into the xishankou with a powerful momentum.

Mo army has more than ten simple stockaded villages and checkpoints in xishankou. It seems that they are afraid of the fierce attack of the wind army. More than ten stockaded villages and checkpoints are empty. The directly subordinate army took all the stockaded villages and checkpoints in xishankou without any effort.

Moving forward is the last checkpoint of xishankou and the top priority of xishankou defense line, Fengyang city.
