Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 371 There is an ambush behind

The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month is the small year.

In the early morning, the light snow that had been falling all night finally stopped, covering the ground with a thin layer of jade quilt, which was somewhat dazzling under the cold sunlight.

The Jinzhou army broke camp and started marching again.

This is already the northern part of Nanyuan County, less than thirty miles away from Nanhe Posthouse in Anping County.

"The army will be able to reach Linshui before noon. It is already deep winter and the Linshui River has already frozen. We can directly launch an attack on Nanheyi!"

As Yuan Yanxi saw that he was getting closer and closer to the place where he had been defeated before, he couldn't help but feel excited again.

"General Feng, why don't you let my 20,000 men lead the charge and test the Liu family's bottom line first! I don't believe that the Liu family dares to send out elite troops to fight the enemy this time!"

"Even if they send elite troops, these 20,000 people can at least hold out for a while with our Jinzhou soldiers supervising the battle! As long as you tie them up and send a large army to encircle their retreat, these elite troops of the Liu family will be unable to escape even if they have wings!"

He couldn't help but ask Feng Boshan for a fight again.

"Don't be impatient, Third Prince! When we get to the shore of the Linshui River, let's take a good rest and then attack together! Besides, most of your 20,000 men are surrendered soldiers who may not be able to withstand the attack of the two guards of the Liu family! It would be better to use them as cannon fodder for siege in the future!"

Feng Boshan did not agree, so Yuan Yanxi could only return in disappointment.

The army marched about ten miles and was getting closer and closer to the Linshui River.

The scouts of the Jinzhou Army kept reporting the military intelligence they had obtained to Feng Boshan.

"Report to the commander-in-chief! There are no enemy troops south of the Lin River!"

"Report to the commander-in-chief! The cold water has frozen solid. We can walk across it directly!"

"Report to the commander-in-chief! No trace of the enemy has been found within a ten-mile radius around the army!"

"Report to the commander! Nanheyi Town is deserted, and no trace of enemy troops has been found within a ten-mile radius!"

Feng Boshan listened to the military report and thought to himself: Did the Liu family really give up Nanheyi? Or are they going to use the same old trick again?

Just as Feng Boshan was thinking about what the Liu family was up to, someone suddenly came to report:

"Oh no! Sir Commander! Our rear guard has been attacked!"

Feng Boshan was stunned: "The rear guard!? How many enemy troops are there?"

"They are all over the mountains and plains, and they can be counted! I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of them!"

Feng Boshan suddenly became angry:

"Nonsense! How many soldiers does the Liu family have in total? Besides, even if the Liu family arranged an ambush in advance, it is impossible for it to exceed 10,000! Otherwise, how could they escape our scouts! Unless they arranged it in the snow last night! But how could they march on such a cold winter night? How could they arrange an ambush!"

The informant said helplessly, "But the enemy army does exceed 10,000 people! Sir, if you don't send reinforcements, the rear guard will collapse!"

Soon, Feng Boshan had to believe that what the person who reported the news said was true.

Under the attack of the Liu family's ambush troops, the Jinzhou Army's rear division of 16,000 people was quickly defeated.

There was nothing that could be done about it, because the Jinzhou army had never expected that the Liu family would abandon the fortified city and launch an attack, and at that, they would launch an attack from their rear.

Moreover, the Liu family has also invested a considerable amount of military force, which looks like tens of thousands of people.

When Feng Boshan arrived with reinforcements, the Liu family's troops had already defeated more than 30,000 people from two divisions of the Jinzhou Army, and were still attacking fiercely to the north.

"White helmets, white armor, and white capes! No wonder the scouts didn't find them! They are so dressed up that they hide in the snow, it's really hard to find them!"

"There is ice and snow on the armor and cloak. It is obvious that they have been in the snow for quite a while. How come these people from Yunzhou are not as cold-resistant as us people from Jinzhou? They can even resist freezing! Aren't they afraid of freezing their hands and feet?"

Feng Boshan looked at the Liu family soldiers coming to kill him, and finally figured out some things! But at the same time, there were some things that he couldn't figure out.

However, for now, we still have to stabilize the morale of the troops.

"Men of Jinzhou! These people of Yunzhou are already at the end of their strength! Moreover, fighting in the cold winter! We, the people of Jinzhou, have the advantage!"

"Follow me and kill them! Let them see clearly who is the overlord of the village!"

It must be said that the Jinzhou Army, born in a bitter cold land, once their blood is aroused, their combat power will rise sharply!

The reinforcements were so fierce that even the previously defeated troops quickly regained their confidence and began to counterattack.

A fierce head-on battle began.
