Chapter 720

Originally, we discussed with Pang Tong that we should use the camp to support for two or three days, and then the army would withdraw. Now it seems that if there is a chance to send these wounded soldiers away ahead of time, it is better than tens of thousands of troops hiding on the road in fear. If they are really blocked by Dong Zhuo's cavalry, it is not a loss for thousands of people. It is estimated that these 100000 people will have to herd sheep.

On hearing this, Chen Jing immediately got up and took orders.

Huangfu Chaobo nodded, then turned to Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, it's up to you next. It's bound to be more difficult these days. There are 20000 new recruits transferred from Wenxi. You also need to pay attention to them."

At this point, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly had a meal. Did he let Zhao Yun tie his hands and feet by doing so?

"Zhao Yun, listen to the order!"

"The end will be here!"

"From now on, you will be fully responsible for the defense of the barracks. You will not be involved in the task, but you must give me five days. After five days, the army will be ready to retreat!"

"The end will take orders!" After hearing this, Zhao Yun also aroused some fighting spirit. He also knew that the more he went to the back, the more fierce the war would be. Moreover, Dong Zhuo's soldiers had not yet joined the war. It was estimated that Xu Rong would send them out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow at the latest. For his part, he would add 20000 new recruits, so the pressure would be even greater.

In the middle of the night, the cavalry who went to Geng Township had returned. A thousand soldiers of dragon setting camp and a thousand Tui cavalry captured the town in less than a quarter of an hour. Then, Yang Feng led a thousand soldiers of dragon setting camp and a thousand people into the town, and began to actively prepare materials for erecting the floating bridge.

In the evening, Yang Feng sent the 1000 Tui cavalry and 3000 horses back to Wenxi.

The next morning, when it was light, Chen Jing and Su Zhi arranged for five thousand soldiers and five thousand people to leave Wenxi and go to Geng Township under the escort of three thousand cavalry.

Soon after daybreak, as Zhao Yun expected, Xu Rong launched an attack on the camp again, and the attack was more fierce than the previous two days. In the afternoon, Dong Zhuo's soldiers, who had not participated in the attack since the war, also joined the attack.

With the addition of Dong Zhuojun, the pressure of the garrison is obviously much greater. Fortunately, Zhao Yun has been prepared for Xu Rong's attack in an orderly way. However, at the end of the day, the number of soldiers in the camp increased compared with the previous two days. The number of dead taxis alone reached 3000, and the number of injured taxis reached more than 6000.

However, in the evening, after a rest, another 10000 soldiers and minzhuang were escorted to Geng township.

In this way, on the sixth day, facing the five-day attack of tens of thousands of troops, he was still unable to enter the Sizhou army camp. Not only Jiang Pei's Hedong army could not support him, but also Dong Zhuo's soldiers were tired. Xu Rong had to order the army to rest for one day and fight again tomorrow.

In his opinion, Sizhou should also be close to the limit. After a day's rest, the army will give them another thunderbolt, at least be able to capture their camp. If we could capture the pontoon before the Sizhou army destroyed it, we might be able to follow the rout troops to attack Wenxi city.

At this time, in the camp of Sizhou army, Huangfu Chaobo people were also counting the losses of these days. After five days of fierce fighting, the number of soldiers killed by 100000 Sizhou army alone reached 14000, and the number of injured soldiers reached 25000. In the end, nearly ten thousand seriously injured soldiers will die one after another. That is to say, in the past five days, the loss has reached as much as five thousand every day.

Fortunately, over the past few days, 30000 people have been sent to Geng township. In addition to the 2000 people who started with Yang Feng, 32000 people have arrived in Geng township. At present, there are less than 50000 troops and 25000 wounded soldiers in the camp and Wenxi City, including nearly 8000 cavalry troops.

That is to say, in a few days, there are only more than 40000 soldiers who can fight. Among them, there are nearly 10000 newly recruited soldiers. In a few days, more than half of the 20000 newly recruited soldiers have been killed and wounded. There is no way. This kind of fierce war is the grave of the recruits, but it is still in the battle of defending the city, otherwise there will be more casualties.

At present, there are only half of the 178000 troops left, and nearly half of them are wounded. It can be said that this war has really hurt Huangfu Chaobo.

In the tent, everyone had been silent for a long time. Then Zhao Yun said, "Lord, it's time for the army to retreat. Otherwise, if we drag on, the loss will be greater. The general will propose to withdraw this evening. "

Huangfu Chaobo also knew that he could not hesitate any more, but it was basically impossible for nearly ten thousand seriously injured soldiers to evacuate safely. Thinking of this, I couldn't help sighing: "prepare, arrange for the soldiers to withdraw to the north of Sushui this evening. At the same time, order the cavalry to send away some of the injured soldiers first, and the rest of the soldiers to retreat on foot overnight. The cavalry will send the wounded to Geng Township, and then return to meet the follow-up soldiers."

"As for the seriously injured soldiers For a long time, Huangfu Chaobo said, "I will go to talk to them in person."

Say, head also don't return of toward wounded soldier camp walk.

Seeing this, Pang Tong quickly followed, while the other generals were ready to retreat under the arrangement of Zhao Yun. First of all, the wounded must retreat to the other side of the river. It's OK, because every day after the war, some wounded soldiers will be evacuated to Wenxi, which has been clearly heard by detective Xu Rong.Therefore, for this time in the daytime to evacuate the wounded, Xu Rongzhu will have no accident. It's just that cavalry is constantly cruising outside the camp to prevent the army from suddenly withdrawing or doing something else.

At this time, neither Xu Rong nor Jiang Pei thought that Sizhou army would retreat from Hejin, because Pang Tong's camouflage and Huangfu Chaobo's ants moved too well.

These days, people and horses leave and return every day, basically before daybreak in the morning and after nightfall in the evening. In addition, during the day, there are basically cavalry cruising between the camp's floating bridge and Wenxi, so as to cut off Jiang Pei's information exploration around Jianxi.

In a few days, ten or twenty thousand soldiers of Sizhou army had quietly moved to Geng Township, but Jiang Pei knew nothing about it. In addition, under Pang Tong's arrangement, both Wen Xi and Da Ying moved constantly, so there was no trace of the army's retreat.

When Huangfu Chaobo left the wounded camp, his face was as deep as water. Although it was not the first time for him to lead the battle, he had never given up so many wounded soldiers. This did not include the thousands of seriously injured soldiers who had been given up in Su Zhi camp. This was the second time for him to let the wounded go.
