Chapter 1457: Rob Tenzin's Decision

Lob Tenzin received the order to retreat yesterday.

When he first received Qinpu's order, he was a little reluctant.

If they withdraw like this, they will be handing over large tracts of land to others.

Although Daqian is strong, he doesn't want to retreat without a fight!

However, due to Qinpu's order, no matter how unwilling he was, he had to retreat.

Lob Tenzin came to a high ground and looked down at the surrounding terrain.

"What a great place to defend!"

As Lobsang Tenzin spoke, he could not help but sigh, "We have an army of more than 100,000 people and we have a favorable location. Why can't we defend it?"

After listening to what Lobtenzin said, several people around him also sighed.

A few years ago, their troops were heading straight for Daqian, and they wanted Daqian to cede Liangzhou and Liaozhou.

However, in just a few years, they had to give up large tracts of land and retreat without a fight, even though they clearly had the strength to fight and could clearly hold on.

This is a huge shame for a general!

"General, why don't you write another letter to King Chinpu to try to gain his support?"

At this time, a Xiqu general behind him said unwillingly: "We are retreating like this. What is the point of us defending for these years?"

"Yes! General, let's fight for it again! We have just sent so many cattle, sheep and silver to Daqian, and now they want to retreat. If that's the case, what are we still sending those things for?"

"King Chinpu may just be confused for a moment. We are willing to sign a military order to the king. If we cannot hold on, we will let the king deal with us!"

"I am also willing to sign a military order!"

"And I……"

At once, several generals behind Robdanzeng spoke up.

Don't want to retreat!

They don't want to retreat!

They are confident they can hold on.

Even if Daqian is strong, they will be able to hold on by relying on their geographical advantages.

As long as Daqian is defeated, he may not dare to launch another attack on Xiqu in the next few years.

After listening to the persuasion of several people, Lob Tenzin also began to waver.

Or, try again?

"Report..."

At this moment, a messenger came galloping on his horse.

The messenger's voice was drawn out.

Arriving at the foot of the high ground, the messenger quickly dismounted and hurriedly ran to the high ground, shouting: "Urgent report! Send an urgent report to the Qiang King..."

Send an urgent message to King Qiang?

Hearing the messenger's words, the people on the high ground couldn't help but frown slightly.

Why is King Fa Qiang here to cause trouble again?

Didn’t they just send an additional 15,000 troops towards Ganci?

What's going on? Does King Fa Qiang think that 15,000 soldiers are too few?

While several people were secretly puzzled, the messenger climbed up the high ground with great effort and came to Luo Budanzeng breathlessly, "Ganci has fallen..."

As he said this, the messenger quickly took out the parchment scroll in his arms and handed it to Rob Tenzin.

Lobu Tenzin's face changed drastically. He hurriedly took the parchment and unfolded it.

The others also gathered around anxiously.

When they saw the contents on the parchment scroll, several people suddenly became panicked.

Puwang surrenders!

Ganci fell!

Suzan was captured!

Every line of text is bad news!

Damn Puwang, how dare he surrender to the enemy?

"Asshole! I will tear that bastard Puwang into pieces!"

Robdanzeng roared in rage, murderous intent surging from his whole body.

Ganci was lost!

The enemy's army will soon arrive at the city of Kampot!

Once Gongbu falls, their supply lines will be cut off at any time!

By then, the 200,000 troops on the other side will be easy prey for the enemy!

If their 200,000-strong army were wiped out, Xiqu would see no hope at all.

retreat!

Must retreat!

At this time, we cannot gamble on how many troops they will send back to defeat the enemy forces.

Once you lose the bet, everything is over!

"Somebody come!"

Lobsang Tenzin's face was filled with anger, and he shouted, "Pass the order down, all troops should prepare to retreat immediately! Tell Ximoduo to lead his troops to rescue Gongbu immediately!"

"Yes!"

The messenger did not dare to delay and immediately went forward to deliver the message.

"Go back to camp!"

Without saying anything more, Lobdanzeng quickly led several generals back to the camp to discuss the retreat.

After returning to the camp, Lob Tenzin immediately summoned all the generals.

Now, no one is talking about trying to avoid withdrawing troops.

They only need to discuss one issue now!

How to withdraw troops!

If they retreat rashly, the enemy will surely press on.

When their army is halfway across the river, launch a surprise attack from the rear.

At that time, all they could do was cry.

Everyone discussed from the afternoon to the evening, and finally decided on a plan to retreat.

Advance openly and retreat secretly!

First display an offensive posture so that the enemy cannot figure out their intentions and dare not act rashly.

When the enemy is hesitant, they can withdraw quietly.

As long as they retreat to the other side of the river, they can send a small number of troops to rely on the natural barrier to guard several key points that are convenient for crossing the river, making it impossible for the pursuing enemy troops to cross the river.

Their main force can reinforce Gongbu and seize the opportunity to defeat the enemy forces attacking Gongbu.

Early the next morning, Lob Tenzin began to make intensive preparations.

"Report, urgent report..."

Just as Lob Tenzin was making as careful arrangements as possible, an urgent report came from outside.

Hearing this voice, Lob Tenzin's heart skipped a beat.

Although he hadn't seen the messenger yet, he already had a bad feeling.

At this time, please don't let any bad news come!

Soon, the messenger rushed in, "Send an urgent report to the Qiang King! The enemy's vanguard of about 10,000 cavalry has reached Gongbu, please send troops back to Gongbu as soon as possible!"

"what?"

Lob Tenzin stood up suddenly.

What a great speed!

The enemy has reached Gongbu!

It would take a whole day for the messenger to run over from Gongbu!

In other words, Gongbu is now most likely surrounded by enemy forces!

Even if there is the latest news from Gongbu, I'm afraid it won't be able to be spread out!

Damn!

How could the enemy be so fast?

Lobtenzin was breathing rapidly, his face full of grief and anger.

Puwang!

It’s all Puwang’s fault!
