Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

Chapter 663 Retreat incident

A cottage in Cang County has more than 1000 people living here, more than half of whom are rebels, and there are many officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain.

Obviously, this is a battle location, and both sides involve each other here, preventing Daqian's strength advantage from being used, but it also prevents the rebels from using their strength advantage.

But it doesn't matter, defense is at least much stronger than offense. Moreover, although the village seems to be surrounded by large groups, in fact there is an escape route from the village.

Moreover, if a fight really breaks out, who will win or lose is another matter.

After all, Cangxian County is not big, but it involves a lot of Daqian troops. There are more than 1 Jiangnan Camps and more than 2 Daqian County soldiers.

It can be said that it was Cang County that was like a nail here, which made the Jiangnan Camp passive and the pressure on the rebels in other parts of Huzhou was greatly reduced.

However, with the increase in troops from the Daqian court, the situation in Huzhou is about to change!

Inside the village, several old men and commanders were heard discussing: "Are we going to retreat as a whole army?"

The commander said: "Yes, with the end of the summer harvest, Daqian began a new round of troop reinforcements. One month later, [-] county soldiers from Jiangbei came to reinforce us. The pressure on us is increasing, and soon It’s hard to hold on!”

The old man hesitated, "Our mountain stronghold is easy to defend but difficult to attack. No matter how many officers and soldiers are added, they can't take us down!"

The commander nodded: "You are right, but we can't hold on any longer. As long as we are trapped, there will be no time to replenish food and other supplies, and it will be a matter of time before we are breached."

The old man couldn't help but ask: "What about our Han army..."

Before the old man could finish speaking, the commander interrupted them.

"Don't think about the support of the Han Army Central Committee. More than 2 young people in Cang County have been organized into the army, and there are about [-] old, weak, women and children. The material support of the Han Army Central Committee can no longer hold on! "

"You may not understand, but I have to tell you that our location in Cang County is too important, but it is too far from the center and it is difficult to transport supplies."

"Moreover, Dagan is increasing its troops more and more. When the number of troops reaches a certain level, it will be possible to trap us here with only some elites and a large number of young men."

"In this case, it's nothing for Daqian, but for us, this is a devastating blow!"

The old people looked a little depressed. At first, the people just captured the county seat and killed the county magistrate. The imperial court had no time to care about them, but they lived a good life for a few days.

But the good times did not last long, and Dagan suddenly deployed a large number of troops to encircle and suppress them. If it were not for the intelligence personnel of the Han army who knew certain military knowledge and helped them train to defend themselves against the enemy, I am afraid that Cangxian County would have been conquered by Dagan. .

But then, Daqian began to send more troops to Cang County. At the same time, the Han army also continued to support Cang County, which greatly increased the strength of the rebels in Cang County. The leader of the rebel army became swollen and thought he could fight with Daqian. Encounter.

Apparently, he was hit so badly that the leader of the rebel army was directly killed without even escaping.

If it weren't for the organizational skills of the Han army's intelligence personnel, with the defeat of the rebels, Cang County would have been completely pacified by Da Gan.

At this time, the Han army subsequently supported many officers, and soon mastered and integrated the rebel army, and then launched a counterattack, completely holding back Dagan.

But now, the officers of the Han army also said that they could no longer hold on, and they naturally looked a little depressed.

You must know that the reason why they did not leave was not that the Han army did not evacuate them, but that at first these people thought that this was their ancestral land and did not want to lose it.

Moreover, under the leadership of the Han army, the rebels at that time fought many victorious battles, and they did not think they would be defeated.

But now it's their turn to choose, maybe they have no choice at all!

The old people were stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "It's hard to leave our homeland!"

But since they can discuss things with the commanders, then they are not too pedantic.

"Since we need to retreat, one of us must go first and the other last, and we must take that road. We are..."

The old man didn't finish what he said, but the commander understood what he meant and nodded.

"Yes, we are the first batch of people to evacuate!"

"The leading troops have already begun to evacuate. They will open the road for us and be ready to receive us!"

The old people were silent for a moment, "They are all good boys. This retreat must be quite dangerous, otherwise there would be no so-called vanguard!"

The commander smiled: "The vanguard unit is to find a safe way for everyone to retreat. There is danger, but it is not serious. You don't have to worry!"

The old people didn't know much about military matters, but they also knew that this was comfort, so they stopped talking and asked:

"Since we are the first batch, there will also be the second, third, and fourth batch!"

The commander nodded: "Yes, but don't worry. The first ones to evacuate will definitely be women, children and the elderly, and the young men will stay until the end!"

The old man said, "What do you think of retreating?"

"Let us, let us old men stay here!"

"After all, as more people evacuate, subsequent evacuation will become more and more difficult, and in the end, people may even need to sacrifice their lives!"

"You have to remember that they are all children from Cang County. They are still young and can still fight. A group of us old men are buried up to our necks in loess, so you see if we old men can stay here to cover your retreat!"

"Don't refuse in a hurry. You can respond to the superiors. We are old men and we can't walk fast. Not to mention delaying the march, we have many things to do, and we are prone to illness. We might die on the way to evacuate."

"Look, we are all going to die sooner or later. It is better for us to stay here and serve as the army, giving Da Gan the illusion that the army is still there, so that you can evacuate easily!"

The commander shook his head, "We are the Han army and we will not give up any of our civilians!"

The old man smiled so happily that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together.

"Okay, we old men will accept your favor!"

Three days later, the retreat order was issued, the retreat route was decided, and the entire village began to pack up and prepare to retreat.

"What are you doing?"

Several commanders looked at the soldiers holding ropes and questioned them warily.

Regarding their questioning, an old voice soon came from behind the soldier.

"Tie them up!"

The commander looked at the visitor with disbelief on his face, "Mr. Hong, what do you want to do?"

The old man was a little ashamed, but his tone was firm.

"Captain Zhang, Zhao Jijiu, I'm sorry!"

After that, the old man waved his hand and said to the soldiers: "Why are you still standing there?"
