Chapter 1371 Dilemma(1/2)
It is already early summer, and the weather in Shuzhou has become slightly hotter.
Fortunately, the beauty of this place is that it feels painful when it is sunny, but as long as you walk two steps into the shade of the tree, coolness will enter your heart.
Cao Lie and Ye Xiaoqian and his team did not go back to the Ning Army camp in Meishan directly, but went to see Dan Tai.
Cao Lie was standing on the high slope at this time, looking at the battle situation in the distance.
At this time, the winner is probably about to be decided.
The war began yesterday. Mo Xiyan, Sun Zuoyi and others gathered tens of thousands of horse gang disciples, pretending but with great momentum, heading towards the flank of the Ning army. In this way, they really deceived Yan Yusheng, the general of the Shuzhou army.
The fight last night was all night, but the men from the horse gang were bluffing and shouting, but they didn't really charge.
However, the Shuzhou Army thought there was a chance to attack on both sides, so it was considered a full outing.
More than 100,000 people, under Yan Yusheng's leadership, attacked towards the front of Dan Tai's imprisonment.
Dan Tai ordered to defend to the death, which made the enemy illusion that the Ning army was not able to fight back. After fighting this night, Dan Tai asked the Ning army to retreat a little at the right time, giving the Shuzhou army a greater illusion that the Ning army could no longer withstand the pressure on both sides.
When it was dawn, Yan Yusheng thought the time for a decisive battle had come and ordered the entire army to attack fiercely.
But at this time, the horse gang team had already moved behind the Shuzhou army.
If the people who crossed the horse gang in the Dantai camp could not let them fight, they could win by bluffing and not let them participate in the battle.
This is to express gratitude to the horse gang, and the second is to not want to make things difficult for the people in the horse gang.
No one knows how many people from the Shuzhou Army have intimate connections with the horse gang.
If the horse gang members really charge, on the battlefield, when acquaintances meet, fellow villagers meet, and relatives meet, the situation will become complicated.
Not to mention whether the people in the horse gang are really determined to fight side by side with Ning Jun, just saying that this complex relationship may change the direction of the battle.
Dan Tai's siege made Mo Xiyan's team, with a large number of Ning army battle flags, go around behind the Shuzhou army and capture the Shuzhou army's camp.
The Ning army battle flag was filled with the Shuzhou army camp, and then shouted loudly. In this way, the morale of the Shuzhou army was already collapsed shortly after the dawn of genius.
The capture of the camp means that they are already in a siege.
I originally thought they were besieging Ning Jun, but I found that Ning Jun double-teamed them.
After this battle, morale was broken first, and then the formation was broken.
Ning Army, who was suppressed by Shuzhou Army for a night, launched a counterattack at dawn.
And at this time, Dan Tai chose to make an appropriate counterattack and also took advantage of the sunshine.
They charged against the sun, and the Shuzhou army fought against the sun, which would have some impact.
After a fierce attack by Ning's army, the Shuzhou army began to retreat.
However, the base camp was gone, and they dared not forget to rush into the camp, so they ran away in a mess.
On the hillside, looking at the Ning army's attack like a flood in the morning sun, Cao Lie breathed out a long sigh.
It's satisfying to watch.
Ye Xiaoqian sat not far away from him, grabbed a few hairy grass and weaving rabbits, and looked pretty.
"Why don't you watch such a magnificent battlefield?"
Cao Liewen.
Ye Xiaoqian weaving his furry rabbit, and answered casually: "Don't you think it's better than the magnificent on the battlefield if you can play with furry grass without worry?"
Cao Lie couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this. Ye Xiaoqian's words were like Ning Jun fighting desperately, fighting to conquer the world, and then bringing the ending.
“Yes… creating beauty.”
Cao Lie put down Qianliyan, grabbed a few hairy grass, and weaved it like Ye Xiaoqian.
Ye Xiaoqian turned his head and looked at the one Cao Lie made up, then laughed with a thud.
The thing Cao Lie crafted looks a bit inappropriate.
"It's probably about to end."
Cao Lie raised his head and looked at the battlefield again, then looked at the maohair he had woven and threw it away casually: "Bored!"
Ye Xiaoqianxiao said, "Don't throw it away first. It looks interesting. I'll make a turtle shell now. It's quite appropriate to insert the thing you made into the turtle shell."
Cao Lie: "Get out..."
At this moment, they heard the sound of the Ning army's war drums launching the general attack.
The two of them stood up and looked over there. Ye Xiaoqian said he didn't care, but when he heard the inspiring war drum, he couldn't help but look at it.
Then they realized that it was not the sound of the general attack drums, but the sound of victory.
On that large open space, the Ning army soldiers knocked their breastplate with their cross-cutting swords.
Bang, bang, bang!
Bang, bang, bang!
Such a sound is even more exciting than the sound of a war drum, as if there is something extremely joyful in the body, and it is about to break through the body and rush out.
Cao Lie breathed a long sigh again, and then smiled and said, "After this battle, the southwest of Shuzhou will be settled."
Ye Xiaoqian nodded: "We can go back and report to this person."
Cao Lie nodded, he opened his arms and embraced his own pleasure in a posture of embracing the whole world.
A month later, Meishan Camp.
Li Chi and Xiahou Zhuo were watching the Ning army soldiers practice, and a messenger came from the northwest of Shuzhou.
At this moment, calculating the days, the people in the Meishan camp of the Shuzhou Army had been besieged by the Ning Army for nearly eleven months.
Such a long time was enough to make the military food and grass reserves in Shuzhou worry them.
But they couldn't wait for supplies, nor could they wait for any good news.
The news that Li Chi was waiting for was not very good.
Shen Shanhu sent someone to send it back from the northwest direction, and said that the Shuzhou Army General Li Sansheng led his army to guard Yagui Pass to death. Relying on the unparalleled dangerous terrain, he had blocked the Ning army for more than two months.
The duck neck is divided into two parts, east and west, with a canyon of forty or fifty miles in the middle.
There are mountains and steep mountains on both sides of the canyon. If Ning army came from the northwest, if they wanted to come over, they had to conquer the duck neck gate in the west. If Shen Shanhu's team wanted to join Tang Anchen's team, they had to conquer the duck neck gate in the east.
But this place is really special.
In the canyon that costs dozens of miles, there are food and supplies reserved by the Shuzhou army. What's more special is that even if there is no rescue or supply, there is no need to worry about not having enough food before the Shuzhou army stationed at the passes on both sides of the place collapses completely.
Because there is still a very wide area in the forty or fifty-mile canyon of Yakouguan, and only this area has a relatively gentle hillside on both sides of this area.
The key is that you can't get around from other places.
The food grown here and the pigs and sheep raised in captivity can basically meet the material needs of the defenders.
Chen Shanhu said in the letter that it will take some time to break the duck neck joints on both sides.
Li Chi took a pen and wrote a reply to Chen Shanhu, telling her that there is no need to force the city to conquer as soon as possible. If it cannot be broken, it can be blocked outside the duck neck.
Even if basic self-sufficiency can be achieved in the canyon, their weapons reserves must not be too long-lasting.
Therefore, an uninterrupted feint attack strategy can be adopted to force the defenders to consume their feather arrows.
After writing the reply, Li Chi asked someone to send it to Chen Shanhu as soon as possible. When he looked up, he happened to see Cao Lie and Ye Xiaoqian and the others back.
Before that, Li Chi had already received news, two copies in total, one was written by Cao Lie and the other was written by Dan Tai Jujing.
The sender always walks faster than the team. Everyone in the Ningjun camp of Meishan already knows what has been decided in the southwest of Shuzhou.
When Yu Jiuling saw Cao Lie and the others come back, he couldn't help laughing: "Boss, you are not wrong. That guy is really fat."
Li Chi laughed.
Cao Lie looked so lively and happily when he was in Yuzhou, but in fact he was in a depressed mood.
It was not only because he set standards for himself, but also because he had taken in Prince Wu’s only son before.
At this time, all these troubles are gone, so of course I will be fat back.
Everyone greeted the crowd, and laughter came soon after.
However, on the side of the Meishan Camp of the Shuzhou Army, it was lifeless.
It has been almost eleven months. Although Pei Jinglun makes people distribute food as planned every day, the reserves are already a little panicked.
This kind of panic does not mean that the food is about to be eaten up and will be hungry tomorrow.
But it is known that the food is still enough for the first half of the year, and it has been accurately calculated, and it is still enough for half a year.
It's like the enemy doesn't need to tell you when you will fail, but you already know that there is still an exact half year before failure.
Pei Jinglun stood at the highest point of Meishan and looked towards Meicheng with his clairvoyance.
Every day he would stand here for a while, hoping to see reinforcements coming from Meicheng.
However, the hope of every day will not delay until the next day before disappointment.
This has become a habit, but he still hasn't been used to being disappointed every day.
To be continued...
