    "Man Gou is catching up again! Man Gou is catching up again¡ª¡ª!"

    Accompanied by the nervous shouts of the scouts from the rear army, the official road full of soldiers from the Wu army sitting all over the place seemed to be boiling, and it boiled all of a sudden.  Jumping up, he stuffed the cold steamed buns he had just gnawed into his bosom, quickly drank two handfuls of roadside ditch water, and shouted, "Get on your horse! Get on your horse! Get on the west! Pay attention to the number of people, don't let them go!"  Fall behind!"

    Almost at the same time when Gao Dejie's rear troops remounted their horses and began to retreat westward, on the official road in Guizhou in the east, a clear cavalry of the Qing army appeared, shouting that the tide was coming, and arrows and bullets were raining down.  Generally, the overwhelming attack, a dozen or so Wu army cavalry in the rear team couldn't dodge in time, they were shot like hedgehogs by arrows in an instant, screamed and fell down the official road, Xuan was trampled into meat sauce by the Qing army's iron cavalry, and many other Wu troops  The cavalry was injured by an arrow, gritted their teeth and stepped forward, and fled back to the rear under the cover of their companions' bows and muskets. Finally, there was no large-scale lagging behind.

    "Kill!" Amidst the neat roar, Mite Qing slammed Laita first, swiping his sword frantically to block Wu Jun's arrows, while desperately urging his horse to push towards the Wu Army's rear. The Mite Qing cavalry behind them also looked like madmen,  Howling ghosts and wolves rushed one by one faster than the other, and in the blink of an eye they had already approached the Wu army's rear.  Gao Dejie was forced to have no choice but to turn around and return to his horse. He led his army to charge back and formed a group with Laita's army. There were crowds of people on the narrow official road.  Fighting and slashing on the road like a beast, the sound of killing soaring into the sky reverberated the mountains, and the leaves fell.

    The Qing army launched a comprehensive attack on the second day of May in the 11th year of Kang Mazi. With Prince An Yue Le as the vanguard, Oboi personally led the 220,000 Qing army into Guizhou, and marched into the hinterland of Guizhou in two ways.  .  Because no one thought beforehand that Oboi would collapse so quickly in front of Fatty Lu's tricks, and change his established strategy so quickly to enter Guizhou for a decisive battle, so the generals and soldiers of the Wu army, including Fatty Lu himself, were unavoidably caught off guard and retreated in a hurry  After Zhenyuan City, he was quickly bitten by the Mite Qing army, and was forced to fight and retreat. The road back to the teacher was extremely difficult.

    In view of the fact that the main force of the Qing Dynasty was divided into troops in Zhenyuan Prefecture, they took the road of Shibing and Qingping all the way to Guizhou, and Kaili Avenue all the way to Guizhou, planning to join forces in Guiding. In order to avoid being made dumplings by the Qing army, Gao Dejie had  Hastily dispatched his deputy, Gao Hongchen, to lead 1,500 cavalry ahead, and retreat day and night to garrison at important throats such as Guiding and Zoumaping, to protect the way of retreat, so as not to be dumped by the enemy.  Two thousand cavalry and more than a thousand infantry from Zhenyuan who voluntarily followed the Wu army to Anshun formed the central army, which was handed over to Fatty Lu, and the front, middle and rear armies retreated westward together.

    Gao Dejie has been through the battlefield for a long time, and although his tactics are extremely correct when he leads the army in person, what Gao Dejie didn't expect was that Yue Le, the forward of the mite Qing Dynasty, pulled out 6,000 cavalry from the former army and divided them into four teams.  Give Laita, Mu Zhan, Shuo Nai and Zhao Liangdong the command of the four fierce generals, changing every ten miles, taking turns chasing and taking turns to rest, biting the tail of the Gaode Jie army like four mangy dogs, and biting if they catch up  , Gaode Jiejun returns to the division and runs to the death, Gaode Jiejun retreats again and then changes to another team to chase and kill, so repeatedly, the intention is to slow down the speed of Gaode Jiejun's return to the division, tire the Wu army, wait for the time to wipe out this mite in one fell swoop  The Qing army's disgraced Wu army elite.

    Yue Le's move was very successful. No matter how elite the Jie army was, after a series of hard battles with almost no breaks, the casualty rate rose rapidly. The generals, soldiers and horses were extremely tired, and the speed of withdrawal was forced to slow down.  , It took two days to completely evacuate Zhenyuan Mansion, and was bitten by Laita again as soon as he evacuated to the junction of Zhenyuan Mansion and Duyun Mansion.

    After a bloody battle, he was forced to throw dozens of grenades. After finally killing the Laita army, Gao Dejie didn't even have time to count the casualties of the soldiers, so he immediately yelled: "Quick retreat, full of dogs will be replaced again!"  People are chasing them, so retreat to Qing whistle first, where the terrain is steep, you can stick to it and rest." Wu Jun cavalry agreed one after another, and hurriedly dragged their tired bodies back on their horses, and continued westward along the official road.

    "Where is Lu Yifeng's central army?" Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gao Dejie turned to his deputy and asked.  The deputy replied loudly: "Back to General Zuo, the news is already in the morning, Lord Lu's Chinese army has arrived at Qingwei."

    "Send someone to give him an order to garrison at Xinpaizhai to meet the rear army." Gao Dejie roared, "Tell him, tell him not to be afraid, it's not that he is the rear, the brothers are too tired  , we have to change a group of people.¡±

    Gao Dejie asked Fatty Lu to tell Fatty Lu that it was not without reason to tell Fatty Lu not to be afraid. Since ancient times, the most feared thing among friendly generals is the emergence of people who are greedy for life and fear of death.  There are countless examples of friendly army defeats. Fatty Lu was a civil servant when he first entered the battlefield.??The dog-headed military divisions scolded a bloody head, "Oboi old thief defends Guiyang and confronts us? He wants to defend and let him defend! All the more than 200,000 dogs' grain and grass will be transported from Huguang to Guiyang, without us  Do it, the mountain roads in Guizhou can kill him!"

    On the first day of June, the last Qing army led by Jie Shu arrived in Guiyang.  So far, the main forces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Mite Qing who were preparing to participate in the battle had all arrived on the battlefield. The Yunnan-Guizhou army was 70,000, and the Mite Qing army had more than 180,000 troops stationed in the prefectures and cities along the way to protect the grain roads.  The two warring parties with a total strength of more than 250,000 are facing each other, waiting for the final - the decisive battle!  (To be continued.
