"What did you say?"
Lin Zhiming took out the sword from his waist and slapped the spy on the shoulder, pressing it down hard. The expression on his face was ferocious.
"If you dare to lie about military information, my captain will be able to enforce the law now!"
Yan Tao snorted, stretched out his hand to hold Lin Zhiming's wrist and said softly: "The soldiers are watching, what are you doing?"
Hearing this, Lin Zhiming felt like he was waking up from a dream, and quickly took back his sword, but the look on his face was still very unhappy.
Yan Tao turned around and asked, "Is what you said true?"
Yan Tao, who had had a similar experience, tried his best to sound calm. Three hundred elites, even the most capable elites, were just a pain in the neck for a lord of armies. As long as he was willing to give up military pay and equipment and spend money Money can always be gained by winning a few more battles, but for Lin Zhiming, the three hundred elites are the capital for his advancement, so it is no wonder that he would lose his composure.
After the spy calmed down, he said: "Report to Zuo Sima, Captain Lin, I saw with my own eyes that Lieutenant Liang's head was carried by the Jin army on a long pole while patrolling the camp, and some of his brothers were captured. You guys I wanted to go in and get a closer look, but I didn’t want to be discovered by the Jin army. In order to protect the little one, the track commander went up alone. I’m afraid he has died for his country at this time. This news was gained by the track commander’s life!”
Yan Tao's expression remained unchanged and he comforted softly: "Well done. You and your track leader are our heroes in Daikin. Don't worry, his death will not be in vain. No one will die in vain."
"Take him down to calm down the panic. Don't disturb the army." Yan Tao ordered to the left and right.
The spy was taken away with great gratitude.
"General, it seems that the main force of the Jin army is undoubtedly in the front. It is obviously ambushing us. How about chasing the left and right armies back?" Lin Zhiming stepped forward and suggested. He felt that the best way to concentrate all the troops is to annihilate the enemy.
But Yan Tao obviously doesn't think so.
"Even if the main force of the Jin army is in the front, there won't be many people. Our army still has more than 1,600 people. I have also ordered the B Brigade to go over for reinforcements." After saying this, he thought for a moment and then said: "I do They underestimated the prince Jin Wang and actually had the courage to ambush him, but that was the end of it. The two companies on the left and right did not need to pursue them, but they had to send someone to tell them to find Guan Cheng's rear camp in the shortest possible time. He left most of the soldiers here, and there must be very few soldiers left behind the family members of the rear camp. He asked the left and right companies to attack directly after encountering them, cutting off Guan Cheng's retreat, and I will surround him on all sides!"
Yan Tao's big hands clenched tightly on the guardrail, as if he already had the winning ticket in his hand.
"What about Guan Cheng's son? It will take two days before the B-Zi Brigade arrives. Guan Cheng is not a fool, how can he wait for our reinforcements to arrive?"
Yan Tao sneered and said: "Bite him, he can't make any trouble with his few men and horses. He killed one of my brigade in a surprise attack, and I will kill all of them. I want to follow Guan Cheng Let the kid have a good time and let him know what despair is. I want to see him kneel down and surrender, offering all his jewels and beauties!"
"Instruct the scouts to step up their exploration of the surroundings and ensure that the distance between our army and Guan Cheng'er is less than five miles."
Lin Zhiming understood it. He understood what Yan Tao was thinking. The further time goes by, the more advantage I have. Even if Guan Cheng is lucky enough to run forward, he will reach the territory of the Kingdom of Jin. When the time comes, hum.
Yan Tao sketched out the future scene in his mind somewhat obscenely, and couldn't help but show an expression like a cat playing with a mouse.
Perhaps he had been in a high position for too long, which made admitting mistakes an insurmountable mountain. Lin Zhiming felt that this was a good time to concentrate all his efforts on destroying the Jin army, and he could also earn a share of credit.
But it is a pity that this army does not have the surname Lin from beginning to end. You can grit your teeth secretly but you will never be able to shake Yan Tao's status in the Jin Kingdom.
While Guan Cheng and others thought that there would be a fierce battle next and actively prepared, they only waited for a few teams of scouts to monitor from a distance.
Until the afternoon, all the Jin soldiers had taken turns to rest twice. After that, Guan Chengcai finally confirmed the fact that the Jin soldiers would not catch up in a short time.
Guan Cheng even went to Wang Yewu Chengju in private to confirm Yan Tao's level again and again. After getting a positive answer, Guan Cheng could only regard it as a blessing from destiny.
After ensuring safety, Guan Cheng set off immediately.
While Yan Tao's left and right armies were still struggling to find Guan Cheng's rear camp, the Jin army itself began to head west again.
After receiving the news, Yan Tao dismissed this. Where could he go if he ran again? How could the duck fly without its feathers reaching its beak?
The Jin army walked in front and the Jin soldiers chased behind them. Guan Cheng and his many logistics personnel naturally walked slowly, and the Jin soldiers were even more happy and leisurely.
Wang Ye and Wu Chengju were very worried. The Jin Kingdom's troops were far more than these two or three thousand. Once the Jin soldiers' support arrived, it would be absolutely difficult for them and others to resist them. They even joined forces to request Guan Cheng to lead most of the troops. The elite advance quickly with light equipment.
Wang Ye said: A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. As a royal nobleman and the title of King of the Jin Dynasty, His Highness must not lose the safety of the people.
Guan Cheng indeed shook his head and said firmly: "Gu will not give up on you, and he will not give up on them either. Anyone who surrenders to Gu can get the safety he deserves here."
Wang Ye and Wu Chengju then retreated angrily, and could only secretly urge everyone to speed up.
But no matter what, what should come and what should not come are getting closer step by step with time.
Yan Tao originally sent out more than 400 people from the two companies on the left and right but returned without success, but they also strengthened their strength. Their hands are easy to break when they are palms, and when they are made into fists, they can move vertically and horizontally.
The power that is contracted back is for better use in the future.
And the good news is that the B Brigade has received the order, and it is not far from here, so the army can arrive in one day.
Yan Tao decided to live a good life and cultivate himself. After the 2,000 troops of the Yizi Brigade arrived, he captured Guan Cheng in one fell swoop. The refugees were naturally handed over to the monarch. Those things were troublesome and hot, but jewels and beauties were different, especially carriages. Yan Tao still remembers the thumping and agitated commotion after just a quick glance at the person inside.
As the sun set in the west, the Jin army had already begun to look for a place to set up camp, and Yan Tao, who had suffered heavy losses, did not dare to be careless. The two sides were fighting in full swing several miles away.
Yan Tao personally led inspections and arranged soldiers to guard the night, taking care of every detail and being responsible.
At this time, with a simple wooden fence around him, Jin Bing finally felt a little relieved, and his morale was restored by the heat of the cauldron in front of the cook.
Having enough to eat and drink, these four words are a great comfort to soldiers in a cruel war.
Yan Tao was very satisfied after the inspection, but he still couldn't help but mentioned many times that he must be on guard to prevent the other party from hijacking the camp.
In this regard, Guan Cheng said that General Yan really thought too much. The Jin army's camp was also busy, and there were many women among the refugees. It was not possible for so many people to cook, and they could not handle the physical work. In addition, there were still many women. There are children who have been traveling for most of the day and don’t stop at all.
Guan Cheng himself is only two years old, but he still has the energy to entertain his persistent guests.
