Chapter 206: The march is blocked

In the north, after Di Qing and Huo Qubing spent nearly a month to eliminate and occupy Bernsey Germany, they encountered a big problem before preparing to join the navy.

Because after the two led their troops into the east, they found that the speed of advancement suddenly slowed down several times, and sometimes they did not advance so much within a day.

The reason is that there are too many waters, rivers, lakes and wetlands everywhere on this land. Entering it is like entering a water world.

To be honest, if you don’t come here with a different purpose and look at it, the scenery here is particularly unique and has a different scenery.

The grass family vegetation above the head is covered with waters, and the golden feathers are rippling with the wind and waves. From a distance, they look like a golden sea.

Among them, various water birds disappeared and disappeared. The gusts of wind blew, shocking a piece of water birds. Their wings blew, causing the entire golden ocean to rise up with golden snowflakes that seemed to rise from the ground, flying in all directions.

If you look down from the sky, you will find that this golden ocean is actually mixed with streams of streams and waves, like bloodlines being arranged horizontally.

If you are in it, if you carry a beauty and sail on it, go with the flow, let it float, and warm up a pot of fine wine; suddenly, wherever your heart arises, you will recite poems with the moon and dance with the beauty. Think about it, what a pleasant feeling it would be!

It is precisely because of such a beautiful scenery and such a developed water system that may have a lot of charm for outsiders, but it is not very good for the army of Xia.

With such a developed water area, the Xia army was struggling and difficult to move forward. In addition, the enemy troops familiar with the place were elusive and harassed from time to time, Di Qing and Huo Qubing felt that it was very rare to maintain the army without retreating at this time.

Even if the Xia army has powerful weapons, it is useless to face such a scene. Even if the enemy's harassment can only be painless, it is still annoying.

"General Di, there are many water systems here, and the general's cavalry is really unable to perform its effectiveness. It's really annoying." Huo Qubing looked at a small enemy troops coming to attack but failed and retreated into the grass, complaining to Di Qing beside him.

When Lu Su saw Di Qing ordering his subordinates not to pursue him, he turned around and said, "General Huo said so much. Now that our army has just entered this place, we have such a dilemma. Finally, I know why the Bernsey Germany, which was just captured by our army, has an army far superior to this place, so why can only stop outside the waters?"

"General, this will not be a solution. Our army will be dragged down by the enemy sooner or later." After returning to Huo Qubing's words, Lu Su suggested to Di Qing, who had already finished working, "I would recommend that you withdraw from here first and then make plans."

Di Qing had not responded to Lu Su's suggestion, and Huo Qubing immediately waved his hand and refused, sure enough, "No! How can you retreat before the battle? From now on, our army in Daxia has never been able to do this, and it is absolutely impossible to retreat!"

The reason why Di Qing did not respond to Lu Su's suggestion just now was that he was thinking about this question. Of course, he also knew that it was inappropriate to continue moving forward. For the sake of the present, the best way is to withdraw from this water area first, just like Lu Su's suggestion, so that the army can rest for a while.

However, as Huo Qubing said, the Xia army has been fighting for so many years, but there has never been any incident of retreating on its own before fighting with the enemy.

If Di Qing ordered his troops to retreat, he didn't know what other uninformed people would think of him. If their army was about them, they might say that they were incompetent!

But if he continues to move forward, he still doesn't know what difficulties he will encounter. Di Qing dared not carry the countless lives of this army into this place. By then, he would be unable to get through it even if he died.

After thinking for a while, Di Qing quickly made a decision. He raised his head and looked at Huo Qubing firmly and said, "General Huo, no matter what, the life and death of our army are the most important, so let's withdraw first."

When Huo Qubing heard Di Qing's words and saw the other party's firm eyes again, he turned his head to look at the weeds around him that were more than twice as tall as a human. When he was about to agree...

"Life and death?" Liu Qi, who was beside Huo Qubing, retorted: "General Di, even if our army is moving slowly and there is still some insignificant harassment, it is still a bit exaggerated to say that it is related to our army's life and death."

It’s not that Liu Qi knew that Lu Su’s suggestion was correct, but when he saw the two of them seemingly making things difficult for their generals, he still refuted: “It may be difficult to move forward, but as long as he persists, I believe that sooner or later I can defeat the enemy.”

When the other three people heard Liu Ji's words, they looked at him in surprise. It seemed that they had known Liu Qi for the first time. Unexpectedly, Liu Qi would say such "unwise" words at this time.

But in a blink of an eye, the three of them knew Liu Qi’s intention, just to speak for their own general, and it was also related to Liu Qi’s “strike” issue.

"Okay, Chief of Staff." After Huo Qubing figured it out, he looked at you and looked at Di Qing and Lu Su who had not spoken for a moment. Then he turned around, patted Liu Ji on the shoulder, and said lightly: "As General Di said, our army will withdraw from here first."

Afterwards, Huo Qubing ignored the two people behind him and walked straight past Liu Qi, loudly ordered: "The Cavalry Division obeyed the order: Stop moving forward and exit the waters on the same route."

Di Qing and Lu Su felt helpless when they saw this. Liu Qi's hand really pushed them to the opposite of Huo Qubing and the entire cavalry division, but the result was good. I just didn't know whether Liu Qi was talking to them or making things difficult for them.

The advancement of the two divisions was difficult, but it was very fast when they retreated. In less than a day, the two divisions retreated to the boundary of the waters, which was the original border of Bernsey Germany.

The situation here has been reported to Li Jing and Liu Ji. Just as Di Qing, Huo Qubing and others were waiting for new instructions on the spot, they did not expect that Li Jing and Liu Ji would arrive in person.

"The last general will meet the general, Chief of Staff!" The four of them and the camp gate welcomed the arrival of Li Jing and Liu Ji.

After returning to the camp tent and each of them sat down, Li Jing first said: "I and the Chief of General Staff know about your situation."

After saying this, Li Jing looked around the four people and then said, "This place is dangerous, and it is a good idea to withdraw temporarily. You don't have to worry." This comforted the four people, so that they didn't have to worry about something that didn't happen.

"That's true." Liu Ji saw Li Jing say this and then said: "Before coming here, the general had sent someone to contact the sea army. I believe that the support will arrive soon, and further..."

When Liu Ji said this, he glanced at Li Jing. After seeing him nodded, he did not say what was the solution in the curious eyes of the four people. Instead, he asked the four people: "Generals, do you know that our army has this available army?"

When the four of them saw Liu Ji ask, the "Available Army" must not be the Second Division defending the important area behind them, so they couldn't help but think about where they had such an army that they didn't know.
