    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1229

    "Give up on annihilating Chen Ziang?"

    After hearing the words of the archbishop in red, Kennan, the general, was also stunned.

    They arranged it meticulously, then waited for so long, and gave up so easily?

    "If we don't give up our plan to annihilate Chen Ziang, once General Morey's line of defense breaks through, we will be hit by the enemy."

    "At that time, we will be caught in the double attack of the Qinghe army. At the same time, the army will run out of food. There is a possibility that the entire army will be wiped out." The archbishop in red said bluntly.

    After hearing the words of the archbishop in red, the senior generals of the cathars also pondered and felt that this possibility existed.

    "But if we retreat now, wouldn't all our deployment be in vain?" Kenan said unwillingly.

    They had an absolute advantage before, and they had advantages in all aspects.

    What Kenan couldn't figure out was why he suddenly became such a situation now.

    Now instead of being able to complete the plan to annihilate Chen Ziang, they are in danger of annihilating their entire army.

    Not only Kenan couldn't figure it out, but the generals of the Skitarii also couldn't figure out the reason.

    In fact, the reason why they are caught in a dilemma today is because they lack a view of the overall situation and lack of control over the situation.

    They didn't notice the little things that changed the battlefield situation one by one, such as the failure of reinforcements to arrive in a short time, such as the tentative attack of the Qinghe Army, and so on.

    It is precisely because of these comprehensive factors that the situation continues to change, and eventually deteriorates, becoming more and more unfavorable to them.

    Although the Qinghe Army led by Chen Zi'ang seemed to be resting and confronting the Guardian Army at Que'er Mountain, it actually reversed the situation little by little secretly.

    Chen Ziang did not focus on what was in front of him, but deployed it from a strategic height.

    When Chen Ziang sent Fatty Lu to lead the cavalry to attack the territory of the Holy See, he was already making strategic arrangements.

    However, Kenan's eyes were still on the battle level, and he wanted to use a battle to eliminate Chen Zi'ang.

    Of course, Kenan, as the general in red of the Holy See, is naturally not a dead man.

    When he realized that if he continued to stay in Que'er Mountain, the entire army would be in danger of being wiped out, Kenan also made a bold decision that a commander should make, that is, to withdraw the troops.

    "Pass down the order, the front-line troops stay put, and the main force withdraws to Zicheng Mansion!"

    Although making this decision was difficult and extremely unwilling, in order to curb the situation from deteriorating, Kennan finally made this decision by seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

    In order to prevent Chen Ziang from being aware of it and biting him, and slowing down their withdrawal, Kenan directly gave up the front-line troops deployed to confront the Qinghe army.

    It also means that these frontline guards were directly cut off by Kenan strong men, and they were regarded as abandoned sons.

    The senior generals of the Skitarii were also extremely unwilling to accept this order, because it meant that their efforts these days were in vain.

    But the situation is not good for them. If they don't withdraw now, once the Qinghe army is deployed, they will not be able to leave if they want to.

    At that time, not to mention the danger of their entire army being wiped out, the prefectures and counties in Yunzhong Province that were previously occupied will also be recaptured by the Qinghe Army.

    If they give up annihilating the Qinghe Army under Chen Ziang's command now, they will be able to escape danger and preserve their strength, at least they will be able to hold on to some of the victories.

    As long as the domestic reinforcements arrive, they still have a chance to counterattack again, and they will not even lose the bridgehead for counterattack.

    Following the order of the red-clothed general Kenan, the main force of the Guardian Army ambushing in the Queershan Mountains began to evacuate on a large scale.

    Of course, the soldiers of the Skitarii deployed on the front line did not know about this, because they received the news that they were about to launch a general attack on the Qinghe Army, but they did not know that all the friendly troops behind them had withdrawn.

    "Your Majesty, there is news from the Zicheng Mansion that Captain Zhu Qi and the others have succeeded, occupied the Zicheng Mansion, and seized the food and fodder of the cathars."

    A day later, the news from Zicheng Mansion passed through the area blocked by the Skitarii and reported the situation to Chen Ziang.

    "The cathars are out of food and fodder, let's see what they can fight us with." Chen Ziang also showed a smile on his face.

    Most of the provinces in the cloud have implemented a strong wall.In the wild, the people and food were evacuated and moved to neighboring provinces.

    Therefore, there is no way for the cathars to requisition a grain of grain locally, and their grain can only be transported thousands of miles from the interior of the Holy See.

    Most of their food and fodder are stored in the convenient and safe rear, Zicheng Mansion.

    It's just that if I didn't expect it, this time the Qinghe army descended from the sky, raided the Zicheng mansion, and seized their food, fodder and supplies.

    "If the Skitarii learns that their food supplies have been taken away, their morale will be in turmoil. The general in red, Kenan, will also send troops to Zicheng Mansion to try to get back the supplies!"

    "If he had been more decisive, he might have given up on Que'er Mountain and retreated the entire army, but there is no sign of a large-scale retreat on their side so far, so I think they should have sent some troops to Zicheng Mansion.  "

    Chen Zi'ang quickly called an emergency front-line military affairs meeting with the generals above the head of the banner and analyzed the situation.

    "Information shows that the Zicheng Mansion will deliver food supplies to the front-line skitaris every other week, which means that the food in their front-line army is only six or seven days old."

    "As long as we drag the Skitarii to Que'er Mountain for six or seven days, they will collapse without fighting because of lack of food and fodder!"

    The generals of the Qinghe Army saw that the situation was so favorable to them, and all of them had happy smiles on their faces.

    They didn't expect Chen Ziang to turn the battlefield situation upside down in just a few flips, and they also admired Chen Ziang unceasingly.

    "All the banner regiments have almost rested, and the order will be passed on to launch a large-scale attack on the Skitarii in Que'er Mountain tomorrow. We only need to hold them back for five or six days, and the victory will give us an infusion pump!"

    Soon, Chen Ziang also made corresponding deployments in response to the changes in the situation, that is, to change the previous state of standing still, and to actively launch an attack, so that the cataracts were trapped in the battlefield and could not get out.

    The banner regiments of the Qinghe Army Guards and the banner regiments of the Field Eighth Army also carried out pre-war mobilization overnight and made combat deployments.

    As soon as the next day dawned, the Qinghe Army took the first, second, and third banner regiments of the guards as the middle road, and attacked along the Que'er Mountain Road.

    The 38th Banner Regiment, the 39th Banner Regiment, the 40th Banner Regiment, and the 41st Banner Regiment, which belonged to the Eighth Army of the Qinghe Army, marched along dense forests and mountains in multiple ways.

    According to the original plan, the troops of the Guardian Army deployed on the front line, when encountering a large-scale attack by the Qinghe Army, retreated while fighting, trying to draw the Qinghe Army into their preset ambush circle.

    It's just that the first-line troops of these skitarii are not clear, their main force has withdrawn, and their so-called ambush circle is actually empty.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
