Chapter 237 Shrinking, a Surprise Attack Strategy

"So fast?"

Now that the reinforcements from the New Kingdom had arrived, they didn't dare to hesitate any longer, so they could only ask for money to withdraw.

Not long after, Hu Cheer arrived with soldiers from the New Kingdom, and at the same time a large number of craftsmen entered You County.

After Hu Che'er accepted the city defense, he began to let craftsmen repair the city. At the same time, Ximen Bao also took office and became the county magistrate of Xin County.

The entire interior of Xinguo was quickly mobilized. Meng Ben's conscription was proceeding rapidly, and some newly recruited recruits were directly thrown into the camp. There were not many defenders in the middle counties. Concentrated in Nan County and Xin County You County.

On the other side, Tian Dan also went straight to Yun County with his troops.

In Yun County at this moment, Ye Gong was standing on the city wall taking the lead. Outside Yun County, there were tens of thousands of people in all directions.

"Stick to the city, if you keep the city, you can live; if you can't keep it, everyone will die, keep the city!"

Ye Gong roared with a saber in his hand. The troops gathered from the other counties really played a good role at this moment. The siege from all directions was repelled wave after wave by the defenders.

The war is in full swing. Not far away, two players from Hejian County are mainly in charge of the command. One is called Paohui, and the other is called I am not fat. The combined strength of the two countries is also thirty thousand. If General Ye The troops in the three cities were scattered, and basically each city had only more than 500 soldiers, and it was impossible to defend against the attack of [-] soldiers, so he decided on the fly to concentrate all the troops in Yun County.

"Who is the general who defends the city in this new country? So able to resist? The siege of [-] soldiers was carried down by him?"

I'm not a fat man: "Let's take down Yun County first. The other two cities have already been taken down. We can't wait for reinforcements from the New Kingdom to come."

Pao Hui pondered for a while: "I think this Yun county is a bit difficult to take down, so I just surround the area and send reinforcements. Xinguo will definitely send reinforcements over."

"good idea."

Both of them were action factions, and immediately left only a small number of troops to besiege Yun County, and then led a large army to go directly to the road leading to Xinguo.

The terrain of Hejian County is not as clear as that of Pingyuan County at a glance. There are also many mountains. There are many mountains and forests on both sides of the official road. The official roads in ancient times were not roads, and they were far worse than modern expressways. Yes, there is a wilderness around, it would be nice to have an inn.

Tian Dan was leading the soldiers and marched along the official road, but he was also extremely cautious. There were scouts in front of him to explore the way. This was basically the rule of the march. Ambush, that's it.

What's more, Tian Dan is also a master who specializes in ambush warfare. When he rescued Shui County, he used the method of encircling Wei and saving Zhao to directly destroy Ye Guo, so he would not understand this truth.

The scouts searched all the way, and Tian Dan also led the army to the entrance of Hejian County. There was a hilly mountain range in front, not high, but the ups and downs were erratic, and the road ahead also forked.

At this time, the scout came to report: "Commander, we have to pass through a valley ahead, which is closer to Yun County. The other is a road, but we need to detour."

The terrain of the valley is generally taboo when marching, and many times you will encounter ambushes.

Tian Dan didn't even think about it, and directly ordered: "Take the road."

The troops behind followed him around the turn, none marching towards the valley ahead.

Pao Hui and I are not fat people waited and waited, but they couldn't wait for Tian Dan's army, so they couldn't help frowning.

"No, there must be supporters in Xinguo."

"They won't change their marching route, right?"

While he was doubting, the scout came to report.

"Report, Your Majesty, the New Kingdom's reinforcements diverted and went directly to Yun County. Our siege troops were driven away, and the New Kingdom's reinforcements entered Yun County."

"what?"

Paohui and I were not a fat man and were taken aback, the other party really switched directions.

"What should we do now?"

"The 5000 people in Yun County are very difficult to fight. Now that there are more reinforcements, Yun County can't be defeated. Let's withdraw troops first, and then take down Shui County. This neutral country is a vassal of Xin Kingdom, so we can't let it poke in the back. knife."

"it is good."

The two men withdrew their troops and returned.

……

The war progressed quickly. Under the rescue of Bai Qi, all officials and people in Beixian County successfully withdrew from Beixian County with important supplies and retreated into Qinglong Pass. With Qinglong Pass, the army of Pingyuan County wanted to It's impossible to get in.

Hu Che'er's reinforcements from Youxian County arrived very quickly. The Yasukuni players immediately withdrew their troops when they saw that they were unable to attack. At the same time, Yun County in Hejian County was unable to attack for a long time under Ye Gong's defense, and Tian Dan also brought reinforcements. arrived.

It was originally aimed at Xinguo's attack from all directions, but it was not expected to be directly resolved by Xinguo. The whole body showed a shrinking posture, and did not intend to come out to pick up the station.

In the afternoon, the Baron and the others had another video call.

"how is the situation?"

The Baron of the Storm said directly.

"The east side has not been defeated. The opponent has already set up defenses in You County, and reinforcements have arrived from behind. I can't defeat it."

Qingyun said first.

"We can't take down here either. Xinguo has a total of three cities in Hejian County. We took down two of them. The other one, Yun County, is too difficult to take down. Now we plan to take down Shui County first."

Baron Guangfeng frowned: "Our Pingyuan County is not doing well either. The other party simply gave up on Bei County and retreated to Linchuan County."

"Damn it, this Ren Woxing is really too cunning, he actually shrinks back."

Chushui Furong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "It seems that he wants to increase the size of the country. He has made breakthroughs in technology or military strength, and it will be difficult to fight at that time."

"Then what should we do? The terrain in Linchuan County is so good that it shrinks like a tortoise shell, and you can't get in at all."

Contemptuous of the world, he suddenly said: "My counselor Ning Yue gave a suggestion. He said that there is a last method, which is called surprise soldiers, and directly attack Huanglong. The number of troops deployed in the county will inevitably decrease, so we simply integrate the elite cavalry, bypass these checkpoints, directly attack the opponent's capital, and knock down Nan County."

This strategy is indeed very vicious.

In Chinese history, when Zhuge Liang made the Northern Expedition during the Three Kingdoms period, Wei Yan once made a plan, "Today, we will leave five thousand elite soldiers and five thousand grains, go straight from Baozhong, follow the Qinling Mountains to the east, and go north at midnight, but only ten days You can go to Chang'an. '

A surprise attack on Chang'an from Ziwu Valley, but Zhuge Liang did not use it.

When Zhu Di raised his army, he used [-] cavalry to attack Jinan, but it was a pity that Tie Xuan used the portrait of Taizu to make him lose his temper. Later, Zhu Di also bypassed Jinan.

But now, Ning Yue came up with exactly the same strategy.
