In Caocun Town, when the reinforcements from Suzhou arrived here, they received news that Guo Ruowen's army had been wiped out and Guo Ruowen had died in battle.

The leaders of the Suzhou Department, Buer and Tai Jiujiu, were speechless.

Too fast, less than a day, more than 20,000 troops were wiped out.

Originally, Buhl and Tai planned to retreat immediately, first to Suzhou, and then to retreat to Henan.

Anyway, he didn't want to fight with Hua Jun anymore, and would rather give up the territory to Hua Jun.

He didn't think much about what Hua Jun would do if he chased after him in the future.

However, when they were just about to set off, Wanyan Yechen's order was sent to them again.

Wanyan Yechen asked them to stay, act on the spot, and put some restraints on the troops of the Hua Army.

Seeing this kind of order, Bull and Tai almost finished scolding Yan Yechen in front of the entire army.

This kind of order is simply to let them stay in place and wait to die.

After all, Hua Jun knew how to concentrate his forces when attacking Guo Ruowen, and there was no reason not to do so when attacking him.

Originally, his weapons and equipment were much worse than that of the Hua Army, and now he may still have to face the superior strength of the Hua Army. How to fight this battle?

What made him helpless was that Wanyan Yechen was two levels higher than him and had the power to give him orders during the war.

If he doesn't execute it, he will be punished in the future.

In addition, the reason for delaying Hua Jun was to buy time for the Hauge Department, which was related to the overall situation, and he did not dare to be too self-willed, which affected the overall plan of the headquarters.

"Sir, this place can't be left. Now there is only one division opposite us, and we can sneak away quietly. When the enemy's reinforcements arrive, we can't leave if we want to."

Bull and Tai's subordinates persuaded.

"I understand the truth, but can I resist?"

Bull and Tai said helplessly.

"We will send spies out, and we will withdraw as soon as there are reinforcements from the Chinese army. If not, we will be here for a while, which can be regarded as a mission to the superiors."

Bull and Tai struggled for a long time, and finally chose a compromise plan.

On the battlefield, the weaker side often needs to face some such nonsense choices.

To Bull and Tai's slight relief, the news from the spies came back in his favor.

After annihilating Guo Ruowen, Xu Yuxian's 24th Division and Duan Qiming's 25th Division did not come in his direction, but chose to go north.

It seemed that they wanted to intercept reinforcements from the Shangqiu area.

Unbeknownst to Bull and Tai, however, a cavalry force was already attacking them.

When the Qing army deployed and mobilized other troops, the Hua army was also constantly mobilizing troops.

At this time, the Hua army had been divided into several units, the largest of which was Liu Hansan's headquarters, with about 50,000 people, and their direction was Xuzhou.

They were going outside of Xuzhou city to frighten the Qing army in the city, so that they would not dare to move.

The other troops went to the surrounding area to destroy the reinforcements of the Qing army.

One of them, led by Qian Sule, went to Taierzhuang to try to annihilate Shang Kexi from Linyi.

The 24th Division and the 25th Division headed north to prevent possible enemy troops from the direction of Shangqiu, and shoulder the task of blocking the main force of Hauge.

They want to take Xuzhou before Hauge arrives in Xuzhou.

Hauge cannot be allowed to enter Xuzhou, and after Hauge and Wanyan Yechen meet, Xuzhou will not be easy to fight.

If you really want to fight, it is possible to fight, but it will pay a heavy price.

Far from the current plan, the enemy is divided and surrounded, and the superior forces are continuously concentrated in local areas to encircle and annihilate the enemy.

In order to eliminate as much as possible the living forces of the Qing army, Hua Jun formulated such a complicated plan.

All the divisions are marching as planned, and a cavalry force of about 10,000 people has quietly moved to Cao Village, preparing to cooperate with the 26th Division to take down the Buer and Tai divisions.

On the plains, the mobility of the cavalry was fully exploited.

By the time Buhl and Tai's troops discovered the Chinese cavalry, the distance between the two sides was only more than twenty miles.

For the cavalry, it only took an hour.

Before Bull and Tai had time to make up their minds, the Chinese cavalry had already reached their left, waiting for an opportunity.

"The leader is Arhattu? This traitor."

When Buhl and Tai learned that the cavalry leader of the Chinese army was Arhattu, he was instantly angry.

Because, he and Arhattu know each other, and they are also old friends.

It is a pity that Arhattu surrendered to Dahua with Mandahai, which was regarded as a great shame by them.

He didn't expect that Alhattu had now become the commander of the Chinese cavalry division.

This official is not small, and belongs to the middle and high-level officials in the Chinese army.

Bull and Tai could imagine how much Arhattu had done to harm the interests of the Qing Dynasty in order to climb to this position. Otherwise, Dahua would not be able to entrust him with a heavy responsibility.

"General, this is an opportunity. If we can show affection to Alhattu, move it with reason, and let him return to his betrayal. Then our two forces unite to attack Dahua's 26th Division, wouldn't we be able to wipe out countless enemies, Make great achievements?"

Bull and Tai's subordinate Erdmond suggested.

This......

Bull and Ty get tangled.

"A traitor like him, I disdain to be with him."

Bull and Tai said he still didn't want to forgive each other.

"

My lord, times have changed, do you think we are still the invincible Qing Dynasty? Right now we need to let go of all pride and use all the power at our disposal.

In this regard, Dahua has done much better than us. If Wu Changqing were like us, he would never forgive him for surrendering his subjects to rebellion. How could he develop in a short period of time, and how could he have so many talents to help him make plans and govern the place.

Except for the few elders, all the civil servants and generals under his command have basically taken refuge with us in the Qing Dynasty, and they are all second ministers.

His policy towards surrendering ministers and traitors has a fatal attraction to those scumbags. Looking back, how many people in our army have defected and surrendered since our army and Dahua fought?

These are all because of their generosity.

Alhattu is hateful, but so what, as long as he is willing to help us now, what has happened before is not important. What's more, if adults really hate this person.

You can use it first, and when the Huajun is completely defeated in the future, or when the situation is stabilized, it is not too late to turn over the old accounts with him.

I suspect that this is what Dahua's Wu Changqing planned.

After he has completely pacified the world, there will be time to liquidate those people. "

Erdmond persuaded earnestly, he did not understand the meaning of his own little fragile pride.

It was their unforgiveness towards the traitors that led those Manchu generals and soldiers who had surrendered to Dahua to give their lives to Dahua.

"I'm afraid, he's not willing to work for Qing anymore."

Bull and Tai sighed.

"It depends on people. I am willing to go to the Huajun barracks in person and persuade Arhattu in person."

Erdmond volunteered, ready to go on an adventure.

It's no good without taking risks. It's normal to fight against Hua Jun, they are not opponents.

The situation is not as good as people, forcing them to start using strategies.
