Chapter 153 (2/2)
Zhang jaw drinks: ”pull out the flag, the river soldiers do the rear team, retreat northward!”
Hearing Zhang jaw's order, a thousand people breathed a sigh of relief and hastened to retreat regardless of their heads. Moreover, there was a great flaw in the array. If an army suddenly entered at the moment, the 1000 people would surely collapse and flee in all directions.
Seeing that a thousand Han troops had run away before the battle, Zhang Niujiao couldn't help laughing: ”what Liu Yuqing is invincible? I can't help but look at it like this, chase!”
After all, it's not exciting to see the ten thousand soldiers fighting, so it's not exciting to see the soldiers fighting in a rough way.
But soon Zhang Niujiao no longer worried about this, because the 1000 Han soldiers ran away and threw things: the weapons in their hands were too heavy, so they threw them away; the leather helmets on their heads were too heavy, so they threw them away; even the banner bearers threw the flag to the ground in panic.
The original clean and tidy flag was first trampled on by the 1000 Han Army, and then stepped on by the 10000 bandit army, and then fell deeply into the soil.
”Pull out this flag and show it to my son. Ha ha ha!”
Zhang Niujiao was overjoyed. He ordered people to pull out the flag in the deep soil, and then he continued to lead his troops to catch up with them. The 1000 Han Army ran faster and faster, because they almost threw away everything they could, and marched lightly. However, although the black mountain army in the back was very tired, it was a burst of excitement.
In fact, Zhang Niujiao was also suspicious at the beginning whether the government and the army pretended to be defeated and lured to pursue him? But now they are not worried at all. The officers and soldiers even throw away their weapons in their hands. What are they going to fight with?
Zhang Niujiao is more and more excited, but Zhang jaw is worried. Liu Ye gave him the task of pretending to be defeated, but running, gradually became a real rout.
Besides the more than 200 Hejian soldiers under his command, he has some fighting power. The remaining 800 people are the civilian men recruited from Julu city by Liu Ye, who put on the equipment of the county soldiers to make up the number.
He was chased by Zhang Niujiao all the way. The group of civilians who had not fought in the war ran faster and faster, and had reached the verge of collapse. For a moment, the false defeat turned into a real defeat. Even the soldiers in Hejian were affected. However, it was a blessing in disguise. Zhang Niujiao really thought that the officers and soldiers were defeated.But Zhang jaw is not flustered, but always face color unchanged. This group of civilian men marched lightly, and they were out of breath. Were the thieves behind them more tired?
In fact, it is true that the ten thousand bandits led by Zhang Niujiao were excited, but after running with the Han army for such a long time, their legs were really sour and weak. The reason why they could continue to run was just a breath of Qi in their hearts.
At this time, Zhang Niujiao's vision suddenly appeared another Liu flag. Under the flag, there was a general with a gun and a red cloak. Hundreds of people behind him were all cavalry.
Yeah? Liu Ye's handsome flag has been held just now. How could he come out again so soon?
When Zhang Niujiao's head turned, he suddenly realized that it was not good. He immediately held the horse's reins and yelled.
”Don't chase, tie up, tie up!”
How could the bandits, who were running to the end, stop for a while? Because of inertia, they bumped into the front unconsciously. A row of them collided with each other and knocked down hundreds of people. This just stopped.
However, the five hundred cavalry did not rush to the front, but after a turn with the ten thousand thieves, they headed for the distance. After meeting the more than 1000 officers and soldiers, they went to the far away.
