The Third Division of the 20th Army suffered a decisive defeat. The first division defeated thousands of Qin troops in Tianjiaping, Xiyangping, and Huangshiping like a broken bamboo. They abandoned the city and fled in just half a day. The brilliant victory made the third division, which was the second wave of attack echelon, jealous. At the same time, the attention paid to the Qin Army immediately dropped by several levels. They passed the troops of the First Division who were being repaired and rushed towards Lubin at a lightning speed. The First Division had already made the first contribution, so they naturally wanted to win. Lubin, with a greater and heavier feat, pinned the First Division down. The troops of the Third Division advancing at high speed were seriously out of touch. The baggage and artillery were all dragged behind by light cavalry and infantry. What they never expected was that Xu Yahua, who was in Lubin at this time, was not thinking about defense, but offense. Qian Zhongyi ambushed 3,000 infantry on both sides of the main road to Lubin, launched a surprise attack on the 3rd Division, and inserted cavalry to defeat the logistics equipment of the 3rd Division. After the attack, the Third Division, which had been struggling to hold on, suddenly collapsed and fled all the way back to Tianjiaping. Qian Zhongyi, who had won a great victory, did not pursue him. He just dragged away the discarded artillery and other baggage of the Third Division. Back to Lubin. "You bastard, you have disgraced the Twentieth Army." Li Mingjun, who rushed to Tianjiaping after hearing the news, kicked He Jun, the commander of the third division, to the ground with a black face, and pulled out his knife with a choking sound. , "I'll kill you." "Commander Li." Yan Wei, the first division commander, took a step forward and hugged Li Mingjun's sword-holding hand tightly, "Commander Li, the Han army has its own military laws. He Jun underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, losing troops and generals. He himself There are military sanctions, and the commander must not lynch." Guo Fu, the deputy commander of the Second Division led by Li Mingjun, also grabbed Li Mingjun's hand, "Commander, now is not the past, the commander of the army cannot kill generals and soldiers at will. "Deputy Guo is Li Mingjun's confidant, and his words also calmed Li Mingjun down. With a clang, he threw the saber to the ground heavily. "Come here, take He Jun first. I will take care of you with my own military law, Guo Fu. Now you go and act as the commander of the third division, gather the troops and rectify the morale of the army. It is just a defeat, nothing. This battle has just begun. Here!" Li Mingjun said through gritted teeth. Finally, the Twentieth Army got a chance to show its face. It was well prepared to make a splash, but the First Division took advantage of it and captured three fortresses in half a day. The progress was so smooth that even the military region was extremely surprised, but this joy Before the energy had passed, he was slapped hard on the face by the third division. Now Yan Haibo and Ding Wei must be gearing up to replace themselves. The 20th Army established after the Western Zhao army was reorganized was led by Li Mingjun, but it had no combat effectiveness. Compared with other armies of the Han army, there is a big gap in willpower. This in itself makes Li Youjun feel inferior. After two years of hard work, he feels that the 20th Army is no worse than other armies. The only difference is some prominent soldiers. It was just a battle achievement. After winning the battle of Lubin, the 20th Army could hold its head high and become one of the elite soldiers and generals of the Han Army. But now, the Second Division was completely screwed up. Within the Tianjiaping Fortress, half of the roof of a house was smashed through by a cannonball. The military officers above the level of the 20th Army all stood upright with serious faces. Li Mingjun looked at everyone with a livid face. Even the First Division, which had just won a great victory, also looked heavy and proud. They still understand the principle that one loses and everyone loses, and judging from the current situation, their victory is not enough to make up for the losses of the third division. "Commander, the losses of the combat troops of the Third Division are not great. They have gathered nearly 5,000 men now. It's just that the engineering troops and other baggage troops that were dragged behind suffered heavy losses. A large number of divine machine crossbows and the second-hand troops assigned to the Third Division have suffered heavy losses." All ten artillery pieces are gone. They must have been taken away by the Qin army," Guo Fu said as he hurried over. With a bang, Li Mingjun kicked over a chair with only three legs left in front of him, "Asshole." Everyone lowered their heads. "I will personally command the Second Division as the vanguard and set off for Lubin immediately. I will arrive at Lubin today. The shame of the Third Division can only be washed away with blood. Yan Wei, can the First Division still fight?" Li Mingjun growled lowly. "Commander, the First Division can enter the battle at any time." Yan Wei said loudly. "Very good, the first division is the backup echelon of the second division, and the third division stays at Tianjiaping. Guo Fu, you stay here to reorganize the third division. Once completed, immediately go to Lubin, and at the same time, send it to the military region. Messenger, tell Commander Xu that if I, Li Mingjun, can't take down Lu Bin, I will give him his head. " "Commander, please let the last general lead the second encounter. The commander should stay in Tianjiaping to take charge." Guo Fu. Take a step forward and say. Li Mingjun shook his head, "No, I will go in person. No need to say more, this is an order, not a discussion with you. This is not a war discussion meeting, but a battle deployment. Everyone, go down and prepare for battle." "Yes!" Noise in the house?A thunderous roar. Jiang Fu sat on the ground and put on the clean armor one by one. The previous steel knife was a bit curled, but this was the fine steel knife distributed to the officers above. Jiang Fu found a piece of bluestone and used a kettle with him. The water inside has been poured, and the ground is grinding. If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. Jiang Fu did not dare to neglect his own weapons. The news that the Third Division had suffered a major defeat had spread by this time. From time to time, Jiang Fu could see groups of dejected soldiers of the Second Division retreating from the front. Some even had empty hands and did not even take weapons. This made Jiang Fu Evil fire burst out from Fu's heart. Damn it, the Twentieth Army had lost their face. When they fought at Lotte Creek, Crab and his entire team of 3,000 people would die. He did not throw away his last weapon. To this day, Jiang Fu still remembers that when he crawled out of the gap, what he saw was an extremely brutal fighting scene, and he died without humiliation. Jiang Fu gritted his teeth as he sharpened the knife. The sound of the military bugle suddenly sounded, and Jiang Fu jumped up. It was the assembly call, the assembly call of the First Division, and it was about to attack again. Jiang Fu returned his sword to its sheath and strode towards his troops. "Gather, we are going to attack. Let's go wipe the ass of the second division bastard." He shouted loudly. The troops of the First Division are now scattered in Tianjiaping, Xiyangping and Huangshiping. It will take time to assemble. The three fortresses they left behind will be handed over to the withdrawn Third Division to take over and assemble their own troops in Jiangfu. When the troops squinted and handed over their defense to the ashamed-faced officer of the Third Division in front of them, the troops of the Second Division were already setting out singing war songs. As the commander of the first battalion, Jiang Fu had already received the order. This time they rushed to Lubin as the second batch of teams. Different from Tianjiaping Fortress, Lubin's defense system is more complete and taller and stronger. Judging from the Qin army's generals easily defeating the third division, the opponent's general is also an extremely difficult figure. This battle is not Not big. Jiang Fu didn't know who Lu Bin's enemy general was, but Li Mingjun knew very well. Xu Yahua, Meng Tian's confidant and favorite general, was once considered by Meng Tian as his successor. With such a great reputation, he was a true scholar, and he just dared to do so. Using three thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry to attack an entire division of the Twentieth Army shows the courage of this person. You must know that the formal establishment of each division of the Han Army is close to 10,000, even after deducting engineers and artillery. , crossbowmen and other auxiliary arms, there are as many as 7,000 soldiers in formal combat. Sure enough, as Commander Xu said, no matter how elite you are on the training field, you may not be of any use. Only after fighting a few battles can you see the difference. At first, I thought Commander Xu was biased against the 20th Army, but now that I think about it, This is really good advice. The Third Division is usually very lively during training, but when it comes to the battlefield, the general's formation is absolutely useless. First, he is proud and underestimates the enemy, and then breaks up and is unable to gather up. In fact, He Jun did not panic at that time, regardless of The baggage troops trailing behind only need to gather his soldiers and deal with the opponent for a period of time to see through the enemy's weakness. Not to mention turning defeat into victory, at least the defeat will not be as miserable as it is now. For an army that has been defeated, it is more laborious to restore their combat effectiveness and courage than to train them from new recruits into elite soldiers. The psychological shadow cannot be eliminated in a short time. "Commander, Commander, urgent order from the headquarters!" Li Mingjun, who was riding his horse, heard the shouts from behind and felt a faint sense of ominousness in his heart. He halted his horse, turned around, and looked at the messenger who came to report, "What new orders does the headquarters have?" he asked in a deep voice. "Commander Li, the headquarters ordered that the 20th Army immediately stop attacking Lubin and return to Tianjiaping Fortress for repairs." The messenger gave a military salute on his horse and said loudly. My heart sank. I was really afraid of what would happen, but was it just a defeat that made Commander Xu lose his trust in the 20th Army? "Why do you want to stop advancing? Our 20th Army is not without the strength to fight." He shouted angrily. "Commander Li, I don't know, I'm just passing orders." The person who came was the staff officer of the headquarters. Looking at Li Mingjun's angry face, he whispered. "Who will take over our attack? The Fifth Army or the Sixth Army?" The commander of the Fifth Army is Ding Wei, and the commander of the Sixth Army is Yan Haibo. These two are senior generals from the Fufeng clan and direct descendants of the King of Han. This time, they also lined up behind him as the second echelon. "Commander Li, as far as my subordinates know, neither the Fifth Army nor the Sixth Army has received orders, nor has it been heard who will be sent to replace the 20th Army. The command from the headquarters is to stop the attack," the staff officer said. "What do you want to do, Commander?" Li Mingjun was surprised. Not only was Li Mingjun dumbfounded, Xu Yuan also looked angry in the First Military Region Headquarters. The Twentieth Army had suffered such a big loss. With Xu Yuan¡¯s temperament, he would not recover his capital.It was almost as uncomfortable as eating a fly, but the person sitting above him made him unable to think or do anything, because this person was the supreme ruler of the Han Dynasty. "Your Majesty, I originally wanted to take down Lubin before talking about it." He said helplessly. "That's almost it. The purpose of showing force has been achieved. There is no need to make any more sacrifices. Some things can be obtained in other ways." Gao Yuan said. (To be continued.)?¡
