Chapter 129: Last Stand

Before the Fuguo Army could clean up the mess, Qifan Army led by Dadan Maki took nearly 10,000 cows and headed straight for the 200,000 troops of Commander Chu.

Facing the fierce enemy, Chu Muyun did not even think about it and immediately ordered the army to retreat to the Nujiang River. He wanted the troops to wade through the Nujiang River so that they could avoid being attacked by the Qifan Fire Bull Formation.

But when the Chu army retreated to the border of Nujiang River, it was already in the evening, and the river water had risen to a depth and was close to the high. If you force cross the river at this time, it would be too late. Nearly half of the troops would be exposed to the river bank, allowing the Qifan army to attack wantonly, and the losses would be extremely heavy.

Chu Muyun looked at the dark soldiers of the Pingfan Restoration Army standing on the river bank. Although he still looked calm on the surface, he was extremely anxious. What should he do at this time? Should he let the soldiers fight to the death with Qifan's Fire Bulls? He knew that there was no chance of winning at all, and he could only let his soldiers die in vain.

But the current situation is that there is a fire on one side and deep water on the other side. The soldiers of the Fuguo Army were either burned to death or drowned, and they were destined to be unable to escape. What should I do? Will I, Chu Muyun, be buried on the banks of the Nujiang River today?

Commander Chu Muyun thought while calling General Mu, and used a branch to draw out a formation of troops on the soft sand on the riverside to prepare for the enemy.

Suddenly, his hand holding the branch stopped in the air. A thought flashed in his mind, which made him realize it suddenly. He immediately made up his mind. He stood up from the ground and asked General Mu to immediately attract dozens of soldiers.

Commander Chu quickly explained these soldiers and asked them to immediately convey his instructions separately and let the entire army execute the instructions according to the instructions, so that the soldiers of the army should not be mistaken.

The Qifan army was getting closer and closer. General Dadan Mamu could already see the Chu family army standing densely on the Nujiang River from afar, with no way out and could only wait for death. He thought to himself that it would be fine now, and the opportunity to wipe out the Chu family army and capture Chu Muyun, the King of Jingbei, was right in front of him. While he secretly admired Deyong Khan's clever plan in his heart, he couldn't help but smile with a smug smile.

When the Qifan troops advanced less than a hundred feet away from the riverside, General Dadan Maki waved his hand and the Qifan troops stopped advancing. The soldiers concentrated the yaks in front of the formation and prepared to ignite.

In order to completely strangle the Chu army here, the Qifan army has made great efforts this time. Even if they burn tens of thousands of yaks to death, they will do whatever they want. They have only one purpose, which is to use this to severely damage the Chu army and destroy it here.

With General Dadan Maki's order, nearly 10,000 yaks were ignited in an instant. In a burst of sensational howls, the yak herd rolled up flames and black smoke like a torrent and rushed towards the Chu family army on the river bank.

General Dadan Maki looked at the group of fire cattle rushing towards the Chu army with pride, hoping that they would instantly crush the Chu army opposite.

General Dadan Maki looked up at the Chu family army camp in the distance, but he did not see the scene of the Chu family army fleeing in a panic. He strangely found that the Fuguo Army standing on the west bank of Nujiang River was still maintaining a complete formation in the face of the roaring fire cattle herd, and the entire team was lined up neatly and stood still.

Did the Chu family army have already decided to die and even give up resistance? He is a little confused.

Immediately afterwards, the attacking drums sounded in the Qifan camp, and more than 100,000 Qifan soldiers followed the yaks and rushed to the river bank with victory shouts. These Qifan soldiers did not want to rush up to fight with the Chu army, but just wanted to rush forward to kill the remaining soldiers and clean up the battlefield.

In a blink of an eye, the yak herd with flames and rolling black smoke covered all the Chu family army in front of the river. For a moment, nothing could be seen except the fire and smoke that covered the sky and the sun.

The yaks rushing in front had already crossed the river bank and rushed into the Nujiang River. The Qifan soldiers who were charging behind the yaks saw that there were no remnants of the Chu family army positions crushed by the yaks, and they didn't even see any corpses.

Did the Chu family army disappear out of thin air? The Qifan soldiers who were charging in front slowed down their pace of progress with confusion, a little surprised.

At this time, thousands of Chu family soldiers suddenly emerged from the underground on the river beach, holding swords and guns toward the Qifan soldiers who rushed forward. Suddenly, the sound of killing on the Nujiang River was shocked by the sound of killing. The Qifan army charged forward was caught off guard and had no power to resist. They had to throw away their armor and collapse thousands of miles away.

The 200,000 Chu army that emerged from the ground repelled the charge of Qifan army like a tide. The fierce counterattack made the Qifan army unable to resist and retreated step by step. They were chased by the Chu army for more than ten miles, with countless casualties. It was not until the Qifan army, who was pressing the formation in the rear, blocked the Chu army with arrow rain, that both sides stopped their troops and put out the battle.

In this battle, more than 30,000 soldiers were killed, and the Chu army turned defeat into victory, and its morale was greatly boosted. Dadan Maki, who was watching the battle in front of the formation, could not understand why the situation suddenly reversed.

It turned out that Chu Muyun found that the sand on the river bank was relatively loose and it was easier to dig a pit, so he immediately ordered the soldiers of the entire army to dig a trench in front of his own queue. The trench did not need to be dug deep, but only one foot wide and half a person deep, so as to ensure that the person could squat in it and hide.

The soldiers immediately dug trenches on the beach in front of their queue with swords and guns, and kept lined up in front of the trenches. When the enemy's herd of fire cattle rushed to the front, they stepped into the trenches in front of them and hid. When the herd of fire cattle crossed the river and rushed into the Nujiang River, they fell into the water and drowned, they suddenly came out of the trenches, and attacked the Qifan army that was chasing them.

After the great victory, the morale of the Fuguo Army was high and the fighting spirit was high. That night, General Mu Tianju brought several of his generals to the tent of Commander Chu with confidence, and requested to launch an attack on the Qifan Army in the early morning of the next day to eliminate the Qifan Army.

But everyone found that Commander Chu was sitting in the central army tent with a sad face. General Mu walked forward in confusion and asked Commander Chu why he was worried.

Commander Chu sighed and said, "Today we have lost the opportunity to eliminate this reinforcements from the Creed Affiliate. The military book says that one move will decline again, and three times will be exhausted. Tomorrow we will launch another attack, it will be difficult to quickly eliminate Dadan Mamu's troops."

Commander Chu turned his head and asked everyone: "Did you find out that the troops led by Dadan Maki were surrounded by Jinyang County without attacking it, unlike those who came to rescue it, and it seemed that they had other plans. I suspect that this was going to set up a pocket array for us and encircle our army here, so it is not easy to stay here for a long time."
