The messy Shimen battlefield cleaning work was about to end. After counting, one hundred and nine sergeants were injured and killed.

With less than half a century of war losses, the invincible Southern Army was completely defeated. It seemed like a fantasy for Lao Liao and the other officers.

Such a victory is really shocking!

But only Zhao Ping'an frowned. The data was not good enough, at least not as good as Zhao Ping'an expected.

It was fine that I felt something was wrong at the time, so I issued a strict order: No fighting and annihilation!

Otherwise, defeat and annihilation are different concepts.

Before this, the Southern Army had never lost a large scale, and if the morale was rising and the struggle was dying, Shimen Town would definitely win if it fought to the death.

But the price will definitely not be too small, at least you can't fight without being trimmed in the short term.

Simply put, if you fight and annihilate, just the battle of Shimen Town, you will likely hit the "stop loss line" that Zhao Ping'an set for himself.

Unless it is used to determine the final battle, in addition, 10% of the battle is discipline. Once this requirement is touched and there is no extremely special strategic purpose, no matter how confident the battle is, it must be evacuated to the safe area first, and then re-analyze and evaluate before entering a new battle.

The key point is that if the injury is mild, such as cutting a hole in the arm and bleeding a little bit, this is nothing. In principle, it will not affect a person's emotions. You don't need to wait for the wound to heal and you can let go of this matter soon.

But the injury is too severe, such as breaking two fingers or half of the teeth, even if it takes a long time to recover from the injury, confidence and morale will not be able to return to the past in the short term.

This is human nature.

Then, the army formed based on people will certainly not be able to escape this human logic to a certain extent.

Try not to violate common sense and rules, to a certain extent, it is a clear understanding of the world and a clear human relationship on the battlefield. It is also an application of the correct word "maintaining the right and attacking the strange".

And now, based on decisive on-site corrections.

Based on the "Basic Rules of the Battlefield" formulated by Zhao Ping'an, although Zhao Ping'an doesn't know what to do for the time being, he is very sure: since the requirements for stopping the troops have not yet been touched, it means that he can still follow the table and continue to advance carefully to test the cards.

Yes, it's a test card.

The surprise attack on Guangzhou is just a strategic direction, but this strategy requires dozens of tactics to form. In terms of tactics, Zhao Ping'an still maintains a steady playing style, biting the right way to defend the right and attack the strange ones. Before the final decisive battle, he must strictly control the damage...

The Southern Army’s tent.

Core decision-making levels such as Nong Zhigao Huang Shimi are also facing difficulties.

"The battle loss is nearly 40%!"

Huang Wei's army, who was sent to block the Shimen area at that time, collapsed in less than half a day. The war damage was so serious that it had a great impact on the Southern Army, which had not suffered any losses since the Guangyuan's initiation.

As big as Guangzhou was about to break, it was impossible for Guangdong and Guangxi to appear in the territory of Guangdong and Guangxi to threaten the main force of the Southern Army, Nong Zhigao felt bad and had a vague plan to retreat.

"Master, are you really planning to retreat?"

Military advisor Huang Shimi was anxious: "It seems that Guangzhou will be destroyed in five days at most. If we leave now, we will fight all the way and besiege Guangzhou for more than a month. Wouldn't it be in vain?"

If you want to destroy Guangzhou to the death, you will naturally have the selfish intentions of Huang Shimi, but if you put aside this point, you can't say that Huang Shimi is unreasonable.

Judging from military theory and the information collected currently scattered in various places, this mysterious team that appeared in the southwest of Shimen could not be Di Qing's main force.

It's still the same point of view. Even if Di Qing is extremely talented in military affairs, he can drive the army to the Shimen in an impossible time when others cannot detect it.

However, it is impossible for the army that has just arrived at the battlefield to enter the decisive battle.

After squeezing his eyebrows and thinking for a long time, Nong Zhigao still maintained his original view: Before taking Guangzhou, it is impossible for Guangdong and Guangxi to have a team that could threaten the main force of the Southern Army.

All the capable teams deployed by the Song army in Guangdong and Guangxi were basically harvested by Nong Zhigao and Nong Zhizhong's troops in the rear.

Don't be too easy!

Luck is unstoppable. Who would have thought that they would take the initiative to disperse in various cities, not run away, and wait for the Southern Army to harvest separately?

Now the only team that can fight in Guangdong and Guangxi, and that Nong Zhigao can see is Lu Shijie and Zhao Ping'an's troops. Those two scholars are weird. The real combat power is always a secret, but the ability to escape and detour is almost unparalleled in the world.

In addition, Chen Bingbing Su Jian and Zhang Zhong's troops in the northeast of Guangzhou.

Under normal circumstances, those teams are not in the eyes of Nong Zhigao. Unfortunately, they are not in chaos at this time. They can always hold troops not far from Guangzhou. With just this deployment and courage, they cannot rudely classify others as a mob.

The round combat power of Su Jian and Zhang Zhong can indeed be ignored, but the key is that once there are truly elites who can fight, after one or two tough battles turn over the morale, the third-rate army of Su Jian and Zhang Zhong's troops will be upgraded to second-rate, and they can fight with the wind.

Therefore, the most core key in decision-making is: which god was the one who defeated Huang Wei’s army west of Yushimen?

"It makes no sense..."

Nong Zhigao has always walked around, neither Di Qing’s main force, so he really can’t think of a team that can make Huang Weijun feel cold in less than half a day?

It’s useless to think about it and guess. Anyway, it’s impossible to be Di Qing’s main force.

"The most likely Zhao Ping'an's troops are Zhao Ping'an's troops. They are now the only team in Guangdong and Guangxi that is capable of defeating Huang Wei's army!"

In the end, Nong Zhigao came to this conclusion.

Huang Shimi has a similar mentality to all traitors, so she wants to take Guangzhou away because she cannot call the name of Donghuamen, which is an alternative way of "returning home in glory".

Huang Shimi immediately suggested: "The King Mingjian is indeed the most likely Zhao Ping'an's army. Although they are difficult to deal with, they are known for their marching and escape, and are not enough to threaten our main force. When Yu Shimen encounters, they are fighting for their lives. They want to use Huang Wei's major casualties to create the illusion of "the aggressive main force of Di Qing". The real purpose makes us mistakenly think that Di Qing has arrived, and they want to break the siege of Guangzhou!"

Among the generals under his subordinates, one of them stomped his feet impatiently: "Grandma, Zhao Ping'an's troops are the best, so we don't have to look for them, otherwise this name will be really annoying. I just wait for the king to give the order, and I will use him to sacrifice the flag this time!"

"but……"

Nong Zhigao still hesitated, assuming it was Zhao Ping'an's troops, but the result of their heavy blow to Huang Weijun was still too shocking.

According to Huang Wei, this is not a strategy, and there is no ambush like the right time and place, it is just a hard-core positional battle where the two armies meet.

"Don't hesitate anymore. The fighter's opportunity is fleeting. Even if Zhao Ping'an came in full swing, there was nothing to ambush around Guangzhou. Moreover, he must have suffered a lot of casualties when he fought Huang Wei's army to that point. The only way for us to recover our morale is to take revenge for noon. We immediately sent two elite troops to attack the stone gate from left to right, and completely ate the team that was trying to "surround Wei and save Zhao". At the very least, they would beat them like a betrayal dog to escape. Then the morale that Huang Wei's army lost came back." Huang Shimi said.

This is true. If you don’t want to annihilate Zhao Ping’an’s troops, just fight away and take down Guangzhou, the lost morale will come back.

In fact, if Zhao Ping'an and the others really had it, even if they gave up Guangzhou now and suppressed all 15,000 six soldiers, it would be only a matter of 50,000 people.

They are really too capable of escaping. Zhijiang Nong Zhizhong's evaluation is: It is really difficult to keep them unless twenty troops are completely surrounded by ambush on all sides.

However, if the entire army is adopted to suppress the enemy, if the battle cannot be over in the short term, the city of Guangzhou will be breathing, and Su Jian and Zhang Zhong's troops seize the opportunity to bring supplies to Guangzhou, then the Guangzhou grand strategy will be completely declared to be a failure, and Di Qing will not be able to do anything before he can.

"Okay, things have come to this point, Guangzhou really cannot give up easily. I decided to send two armies to attack the Shimen in two groups, and further test the reality of Zhao Ping'an's surprise attack. Which two generals are willing to go to conquer them?" Nong Zhigao said.

"I'll go! I'll go... I'll be willing to go..."

Even after experiencing Huang Wei's defeat, it was a morale trend accumulated over a long period of time, and the defeated generals have not yet begun to complain about spreading.

This led to a rainbow of momentum in the entire tent...
