Chapter 2116 Xiao Yuanjing arrived
At this time, Cheng Zhichuan also appeared in Niujiao Town.
Niujiao Town has a large amount of food and supplies.
At this time, he was fighting with Kong Linghu's army, and it would be difficult to decide the outcome in a short period of time. If he wanted to cut off Kong Linghu's grain line, could Kong Linghu and Xiao Yuanjing watch the food behind him transport into the army?
The two of them must be writing this article.
But these are the second best. As long as you find a way to take down Niujiao Town first, the large amount of grain reserves inside will definitely be enough to support your entire army to defeat this battle.
This has to talk about the experience of Lin Fan and Cheng Zhichuan.
Cheng Zhichuan is experienced and knows that once the two sides cannot conquer for a long time, they will inevitably fall into a complete deadlock.
At that time, naturally, there will be more food on the side, and you will win.
"Also remember to make preparations in secret, don't let Kong Linghu notice it. It's best to be able to control Niujiao Town quietly and do it."
Cheng Zhichuan's experience in the battlefield is actually the difference between Lin Fan and him in this regard.
When Lin Fan or Nan Zhanxiong collects almost all information, he first collects all kinds of information, and then classifies it in a unified manner, and is it useful to filter it?
Cheng Zhichuan is different. His spies mainly use military intelligence as the first element to collect intelligence.
As a big grain owner, Niujiao Town has long been eyeing it.
But I didn't want to grab food directly before.
After all, Kong Linghu was from their Zhou army before, so there was no great pressure on food.
At that time, Yan State had no ability to block their food line. Thanks for being able to withstand the pressure on the front line. How could there be any remaining soldiers to block the front line?
But now, isn't this the situation different?
...
At this time, in Kong Linghu's army camp, he was sitting inside, and a spy sent by Nan Zhanxiong stood respectfully. The spy probably reported the situation of Niujiao Town not far away to Kong Linghu.
Although Nan Zhanxiong had already made preparations in Niujiao Town, he had to notify Kong Linghu.
Without Kong Linghu's help, it would be difficult to occupy the food in Niujiao Town just by relying on the spies under his command.
When Kong Linghu heard this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the location of Niujiao Town marked on the marching map. He said, "I didn't expect that there would be so many grain reserves in this Niujiao Town."
When talking about this, Kong Linghu also showed a solemn look on his face.
He crossed the camp back and forth, thinking about the situation on the front line at this time.
"Come here, pay close attention to the movements of Cheng Zhichuan's army. In particular, if Cheng Zhichuan sends people to Niujiao Town, report immediately. If the existing Cheng Zhichuan army has the intention to rush to Niujiao Town, send troops to intercept them immediately!"
At this time, the Zhou soldiers besieged Kong Linghu's army camp had also been ordered to retreat.
Kong Linghu looked at the map in front of him, with a heavy look on his face.
"It's an adult."
Looking at the war map in front of him, Kong Linghu was quite depressed. He knew that no matter what, the days of the two armies would be getting closer.
Especially, no matter which side, as long as you have thought about Niujiao Town, you have sent troops.
Then, it is the time for the two armies to fight decisively.
Kong Linghu took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
Although Cheng Zhichuan's army had withdrawn, the atmosphere became even more solemn in everyone's hearts.
Although Cheng Zhichuan's army failed to break through Kong Linghu's camp this time.
But in this attack, whether it was Cheng Zhichuan or Kong Linghu.
The damages between the two armies were quite large.
The soldiers under both sides suffered heavy casualties.
The army in Cheng Zhichuan's hands is fine. They are all Zhou's army and have strong internal cohesion.
But on Kong Linghu's side, there were Jiang and Wu countries mixed together.
In this guard battle, Kong Linghu was worried that the soldiers of Wu would be bad, so he let his soldiers of Jiang take over.
This time, the casualties were basically all soldiers of Jiang State, which was not a trivial matter. The soldiers of Jiang State below would inevitably have complaints about him, the commander.
"Why."
Kong Linghu sighed heavily.
Sure enough, the next morning, I don’t know if it was the spy that Zhou State planted him to make the effect. In short, the soldiers of Jiang State all complained about Kong Linghu at this time.
After all, the soldiers who died and injured this time have been in the army for a long time, and there are always some comrades in the army.
The soldiers of Jiang Kingdom looked at their comrades who were killed and injured, while those of Wu Kingdom were as good as those who were fine. Can they feel good?
The most important thing is that the commander of the army is Kong Linghu, the general of Jiang State. Logically speaking, Kong Linghu has to favor them no matter how he does it, right?
Now, it’s better not to favor them, but instead turn your elbows out.
How else can Kong Linghu explain this?
There is no explanation either.
Not long after, Xiao Yuanjing was wearing armor and led a 600,000 army of dusty troops, and finally arrived.
Kong Linghu and his generals went out to greet him.
At this time, there were only more than ten generals and hundreds of personal guards behind Xiao Yuanjing.
The 600,000 army stayed twenty miles away and did not directly join Kong Linghu's army.
"Prince Zhen, I have long admired Daqi, and now I have seen him. He is indeed a hero-born boy." Kong Linghu quickly stepped forward to greet him. Although he was the General of Jiang State before, he was now relied on Yan State to have a meal, and his attitude was always to be expressed.
Xiao Yuanjing also hurriedly replied, saying, "I heard about General Kong's name for a long time."
After the two of them pretended to be polite, Kong Linghu welcomed Xiao Yuanjing into the army camp.
Xiao Yuanjing ordered his personal guards to rest on the spot, and followed Kong Linghu into the military camp with his subordinate Yan generals.
When he arrived at the camp, Kong Linghu prepared various dishes and fine wines early.
"Prince, I must be tired of running around along the way. Let's try the good wine and dishes I prepared first." Kong Linghu sat down with a gesture of invitation.
Xiao Yuanjing sat down: "The battle is coming, so I will be spared if I drink, and I can eat vegetables. I heard about the situation before I came."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yuanjing glanced at Kong Linghu's subordinates around him.
Kong Linghu smiled. This was the first time the two met, and they were not familiar with each other. He knew what Xiao Yuanjing meant, so he waved his hand: "You all leave first, by the way, before leaving, you must not forget the rules."
The generals under Kong Linghu all came up with a smile, and toasted Xiao Yuanjing with a bowl of wine, which was a meeting, and then walked out of the military tent.
