The Era of Generals

Chapter 427   Know everything in the palm of your hand

"Let's withdraw first."

The great ambition when he came here is gone at this moment, apart from sending someone to inform Huang Chengjian that the city gate may be fake, Zheng Yuanyun sighed and made a decision that shocked his generals.

retreat?

"My lord, this... is this going to retreat?"

He clearly heard it clearly, but at this moment, some people still feel that they heard it wrong?

retreat?

at such a time?

Yes, it is true that our side has suffered heavy losses here at the main city gate, but hasn't General Huang gone around?

Many generals present could understand the message sent by the loud arrow just now. General Huang was clearly saying that the left city gate would be a weakness of the opponent, and that he had the upper hand in the situation right now.

Dominate!

The message sent back by General Huang is that he has the upper hand!

At such a time, Master Zheng actually asked to retreat?

With this retreat, wouldn't the huge loss of our side be lost in vain?

With this retreat, General Huang will no longer have any support from his side, and he will become a lone army. Once he breaks through the left city gate, he will not receive support from his own side, and will instead be annihilated by the forces in Tianyuan City.

That's a full half a million elite soldiers!

According to the meaning of Mr. Zheng's words, he is going to give up General Huang and let him go!

Isn't this selling teammates?

Such an order chilled the hearts of all the generals present, and they couldn't help but put themselves into General Huang's situation.

The soldiers used their lives, but the commander gave the order to retreat not long after they set off. Who would dare to fight for Lord Zheng wholeheartedly in the future?

Maybe at some point, they suddenly became abandoned sons and were abandoned by Mr. Zheng.

The expressions of the generals under him did not escape Zheng Yuanyun's eyes, but at this moment, he was also very helpless.

If they don't retreat, it will not only be Huang Chengjian who will die, but even their headquarters will become a victim of the opponent's conspiracy, thus annihilating the entire army that invaded Nantes province.

Zheng Yuanyun didn't want to die.

Although he has to admit, he is very clear in his heart that the huge advantage he accumulated in the early stage has disappeared after the matter has developed to this point.

It's not that he doesn't want to take back the half a million elite soldiers, but that he can no longer take them back.

It has already been attacked, and the soldiers are allowed to retreat again. The losses this time around cannot be small.

What's more, if he wanted to get out of the way now, he really couldn't take Huang Chengjian's safety into consideration, and even had to use Huang Chengjian's side to hold back the enemy, so that he could take the opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield.

Right now, Zheng Yuanyun has really reached the point of helplessness.

If his order had been earlier, or Huang Chengjian's attack had been later, and the troops could have been preserved and not entered the battle, this would have been a better result.

If that's the case, he still has nearly 800,000 elite troops in his hand, which is enough to besiege the city.

It's a pity that Huang Chengjian has already moved, so the only thing Zheng Yuanyun can count on now is the less than 300,000 troops on hand.

No matter how confident he is in his soldiers, he doesn't think that each of these 300,000 soldiers can reach the point of one against ten, and even beat the opponent's superior number with inferior forces.

If he wanted to protect himself, he had no choice but to retreat. He could only go to join the 500,000 reinforcements who were coming, so that Zheng Yuanyun could carry out the siege strategy that he regretted again.

But it also depends on whether Ouyang Lixing will order to break open the blocked Tianyuan City while he is away, and then make supplements.

Once the fighter plane is missed, it may never be found again.

Zheng Yuanyun knew this truth very well, but what could he do at this time?

The only way he could volt was to ignore the questioning gazes of his generals and insist on giving the order to retreat.

At this time, he didn't have time to explain, and he didn't want to explain at all. After all, it was his mistake in decision-making that caused the current situation.

Are you going to blame Huang Chengjian?

The other party was just faithfully carrying out his orders, and might even become a victim to save his life. At this time, Huang Chengjian was tragic, and he was also sympathized by other generals. Zheng Yuanyun just wanted to throw the blame away. It was also impossible to throw the pot on Huang Chengjian.

Therefore, he could only curse angrily from the bottom of his heart, cursing the group of generals who were questioning even though they had saved their lives.

In any case, he is still the supreme commander of the Qingyang Empire here, and his orders will still be executed immediately.

So, no matter what, the order to retreat reached the ears of every soldier, and the troops of the Qingyang Empire finally retreated for the first time after entering Nantes Province.

"Master Chief, they seem to be retreating!"

Above Tianyuan City, although the Qingyang Empire's retreat was well concealed, the opponent was not a fool, and they could still see a clue from the long silent frontal battlefield.

Ouyang smiled and drank the tea in his hand.

retreat?

After all, Zheng Yuanyun still had some foresight, he knew that if he didn't withdraw, there would be only one ending waiting for him.

That is - die!

So he withdrew, and his retreat would directly lead to the annihilation of the entire army at the left city gate.

How could Ouyang Lixing not know that his left city gate was being stormed by the opponent?

But just like Zheng Yuanyun knew very well that Ouyang Lixing would not reveal such a big flaw to let himself take advantage of it, the left city gate is indeed a fake city gate.

As long as Zheng Yuanyun was half a minute late, Ouyang Lixing was almost about to order the troops to go out through the only gate on the right side that was not closed, and attack Zheng Yuanyun's base camp.

Zheng Yuanyun thought he was hiding it well, but in fact, how many troops he had in his hands and how much battle damage he had, these had always been calculated in Ouyang Lixing's mind.

When he heard a large number of enemy troops appearing outside the city gate on the left, Ouyang Lixing already knew that Zheng Yuanyun's troops were close to empty. At this time, it was also a good choice to go out and fight the opponent to the death.

But Zheng Yuanyun ran away at this time.

It has to be said that this person's perception of danger is not so slow, and he still feels something is wrong.

But it doesn't matter, after all, this person only has the last 300,000 troops at the moment, is it still afraid that he will fly out of Nantes province?

Chen Ming had repeatedly assured him that his elder brother Chen Ze had already arranged everything so that Zheng Yuanyun would not receive any reinforcements.

In this way, it is time to beat the dog in the water.

"Proceed with the order, there is no need to hide at the left city gate, and wipe out the invading enemies as quickly as possible. Then, we have more important things to do."
