Valley Emperor

Ying Tianhu wanted to run, and those soldiers of the Ming army would not even want to resist. Ying Tianhu had just said his words. The low-level officers around him just ran first, and only his personal soldiers followed him. Beside Ying Tianhu.

As for those ordinary soldiers, obviously no one can take care of them at this time!

Whether in Ying Tianhu's heart or in the hearts of other Ming army officers, those ordinary soldiers are irrelevant. This is not because Ying Tianhu and the others ignore life and deliberately ignore these ordinary soldiers, but the core of an army. It is not these ordinary soldiers, but the personal soldiers of those low-ranking officers and officers at all levels.

These ordinary soldiers have no role at all at critical moments, that is, to gather people's heads and be strong during the war. In this moment, the role of these ordinary soldiers is only as cannon fodder, hindering The pursuit of the pseudo-Tang thieves gave Ying Tianhu and the others ample time to escape.

Just like those thieves seem to have a large number of people, but among the ten thousand people, the real core backbone is only a few hundred people, and the rest are just ordinary people.

Most of the people in the Ming army were soldiers of the serf guard who had no fighting ability, and only a few cadres were really able to fight.

As long as Ying Tianhu and the others were able to escape with their personal soldiers, it didn't matter whether the nearly 100 ordinary soldiers were killed or captured.

Ying Tianhu and the others wanted to escape, but Butcher Chen, who was on the opposite side, quickly found out, and immediately led people to try to break through the obstacles of the ordinary soldiers. Butcher Chen wanted to keep Ying Tianhu and the others behind.

But there are too many Ming army soldiers standing in front of them. These Ming army soldiers have lost their command and are scurrying around like headless flies, although Butcher Chen can kill a **** path among these chaotic soldiers and soldiers. , but by the time they came out of the rebellion, Ying Tianhu and the others had already run away.

Looking at Ying Tianhu and the others who had already run away, Butcher Chen was unwilling, but he didn't have the urge to chase after him, but said with a bloodstained pig-killing knife in one hand: "All these people will be arrested. stand up!"

A short-statured gangster on the side said: "General, why are you still catching it? It's easier to kill with one knife!"

Unexpectedly, Butcher Chen said with a straight face: "Kill your ass, catch them all and let them be coolies, otherwise you will carry so much baggage on your back!"

Capturing prisoners to act as coolies to carry luggage is also the usual method used by the Great Tang Wang Shi when he went on expeditions.

Most of the captured Ming army prisoners were young and strong people or ordinary Ming army serf guard soldiers. These people did not have much fighting ability themselves, and the key point was that they did not have much resistance.

They were used to being bullied by the officers of the Ming army before. As long as they confiscated their weapons and sent a few people to watch, these people are as docile as sheep. Any sentence can make them obediently let them do whatever they want.

According to the experience of the new army of the Tang Dynasty over the past year, using prisoners to transport luggage is a matter of worry and effort, and it is more convenient than directly catching strong men as civilian husbands.

Fang Dongquan, who was at the back, followed, and looked at Ying Tianhu and the others who fled backwards, for fear that Ying Tianhu and the others would go to the back to move rescue soldiers. You must know that there is a main force of the Ming army of more than 400 people in the first five or six miles. , if you really want to run over lightly, it is estimated that it will take half an hour.

Fang Dongquan didn't want to meet the main force of the Ming army just after the first battle, so he walked up to Butcher Chen and said, "General Chen, don't bother to catch those who escaped, let's fight quickly, Take these with you and go back immediately!"

Butcher Chen was unwilling to see those Ming soldiers who were still fleeing, but still nodded: "Yeah!"

Soon, these Huangzhushan bandits embarked on the return journey with about 30 prisoners of the Ming army and many captured weapons.

Just when Butcher Chen and the others set off and returned, Li Xuan, who was in front of them, was relieved. The key to this battle was a quick word.

Before, he was afraid that Fang Dongquan and Butcher Chen would delay time by procrastinating, but now it seems that Fang Dongquan and Butcher Chen still know how to take care of the overall situation.

In order to avoid the main force of the Ming army behind them becoming angry, they came to play a night attack. At the same time, it was also because they had a better chance of getting rid of the pursuit of the Ming army without the nearby surveillance of the Ming army forward.

Li Xuan immediately followed the original plan and let the entire army continue to hurry.

Although it was already evening and it wasn't long before it got dark, Li Xuan still wanted to take advantage of this time to walk out a greater distance. If the distance from the main force of the Ming army can be widened to more than ten miles, then it is unlikely that the Ming army will catch up with them.

Even if the Ming army still can't get rid of it at that time, the Ming army has been following behind the buttocks, but the danger is not too big. Don't worry about when you camp at night, you will see a large number of Ming army outside the camp the next morning.

On the premise of ensuring his own safety, Li Xuan is even willing to let the Ming army chase him, because to a certain extent, it also restrains the Ming army. As long as these Ming troops come after him, it is impossible to come. One or two hundred people, but more than 500 people, or even more, otherwise, if the Ming army comes, it may be lost.

However, once the main force of the Ming army came to pursue him, he would not be able to send troops into the mountains to find Huangzhu Mountain.

In this way, the safety of Huangzhu Mountain can be initially guaranteed!

It was just Li Xuan's guess that the Ming army would not foolishly continue chasing him in circles in the mountains. It has been proved several times in the past that in circles in the mountains, the Ming army is no match for these bandits of Huangzhu Mountain. Yes, as long as the generals of the Ming army are not out of their minds, they should not make the same mistakes as the previous few times.

Li Xuan's guess was not wrong~www.wuxiaspot.com~ That night, Diao Leixun saw Ying Tianhu was like a lost dog. After running back with more than 20 people, although his face was gloomy and terrifying, he did not immediately lead the army regardless of the consequences. Track in the dark.

Instead, he ordered to gather the remaining soldiers of the forward as much as possible, and at the same time reported to Su Jiakang at the rear that the forward was ambushed.

As for Ying Tianhu's follow-up outcome, this is not what Diao Leixun cares about. Anyway, this Ying Tianhu fought such a defeat, it is impossible for him to end up any better.

Diao Leixun was more concerned about what to do next, whether to give up the pursuit or chase in the mountains until the end of the world.

If Diao Leixun could decide for himself, he would have taken people out of the mountain long ago. Whoever likes to drill into this mountain, he is not willing anyway.

It is a pity that the decision on this matter is not in his hands, but in Su Jiakang's hands.

As for what decision Su Jiakang will make?

Diao Leixun doesn't know!
