Chapter Seventy-Six: Attacking and Defending

The more chaotic the world becomes, the fewer and fewer people are responsible. One of the consequences of the cessation of man's duty is that many things will get worse. This situation is applied to the warriors who lead the troops, that is, whether they win or lose many wars, the results will be greater than the original appearance.

Lu Yi's recklessness, Jiang Qi's reckless efforts...... Xu Huang was not to be outdone, and took advantage of the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of Yuan's army to attack the Tugu camp, he weaved a large net that ran for fifteen miles, and wanted to wipe out the 20,000 troops under Yuan Shang and Jiang Qi.

Even if he only has seven or eight thousand soldiers.

When Lu Yi sent him a message from the camp informing him that Yuan Shang and Jiang Qi had gathered their troops and horses to kill north, an idea flashed into Xu Huang's mind like thunder and lightning. He sent someone to inform Lu Yi that the message was only seven words, "General Koji, stick to the camp." ”

The night is the worst enemy for travelers who want to sleep peacefully in the wilderness, but it is the best friend for some people who want to do something unspeakable.

According to the original plan, when Yuan Shang and Jiang Qi led troops to arrive, Xu Huang led the army to fight from the flank, and defeated them with the main force of the Lu Yi Army...... This is not difficult for the Yan soldiers, even if the difference in the combat strength of their soldiers is not much, but just one of them has a heart or no intention, and the combined forces of the Lu Yi Department and the Xu Huang Department can defeat them to the ground, and at least retreat for a hundred miles. If you have more luck, you won't be able to kill Jiang Qi or capture Yuan Shang in the battle formation.

But what is Xu Huang doing now? Turning a blind eye to the big victory at his fingertips, he didn't know what to do with his soldiers and horses!

Although at the beginning of this battle, Lu Yi relied on mental arithmetic and unintentionally shot nearly 1,000 Yuan soldiers on the wall, no matter how outstanding the results were, he could not hide the disadvantage that he only left 8,000 soldiers and horses in the camp, and Jiang Qi, the general of the Yuan army outside the camp, had more than 20,000 soldiers under his subordinates!

Such a difference in the strength of the army cannot be made up for in any way, not even in this camp. The camp is not a city, there is no impregnable defense and there are not tens of thousands of people to support self-sufficiency, they just have a well-built and well-chosen camp, and the camp is a somewhat elaborate army, if it can be carried out in one go. But the bad thing is that Jiang Qi is not the kind of new chick who can be frightened by the fierce offensive.

"The enemy can shoot our soldiers but dare not go out of the camp to meet the battle, Lu Yi has not returned, they have no soldiers."

Even now, Jiang Qi still thinks that Lu Yi has not returned from Tugu. And this is actually the strongest confidence of many Yuan soldiers, Lu Yi's position in the northern army is the same as Yanbei's position in the northern princes, in fact, if you want to hit the morale of the Yuan army, Lu Yi let people carry the banner of Lu Zi and stand behind him and stand on the camp far more powerful than such an ambush, but Lu Yi can't think of it, and others can't think of it.

Jiang Qi said the second half of the sentence correctly, Lu Yi did not dare to go out of the camp to meet the enemy because there were no soldiers in his hands, and the entire 10,000-person camp was now only seven or eight thousand people, and it was possible to win the results of the battle by rushing out and fighting in the night, but once he was unlucky, even if his seven thousand people went out of the city, if he fell into the encirclement and interception of most of the enemy army, it was just to use his head to send meritorious deeds to others.

Can't be stupid!

Lu Yi now has no other way but to stick to the camp according to the sentence sent by Xu Huang and defend it with a limited number of troops. All his hopes were pinned on Xu Huang, no matter what he did, Lu Yi hoped that when he rushed back with his troops, he would not yet become a corpse in the cold.

Jiang Qi stopped the desire of his soldiers to turn around and flee, and threw out the reward again, in his opinion, this camp could be held until tomorrow evening under their strong attack at most, and he could use far more soldiers than the guards in this camp. After ordering the soldiers to retreat three hundred paces, he reorganized the formations of the various units, and only after hastily calculating the casualties did he show a relaxed smile on his face, although the chaos caused by the previous garrison in the camp was great, but in fact it only killed and wounded more than 700 soldiers, which was far from his expectation of this battle.

"Send a message to the son of the rear supervisor, before tomorrow evening, this camp will definitely be breached! Please send him more arrows and meat, and I will reward him for daring to die! ”

Just like Xu Shu's strategy, defending it must be attacked, and the importance of the Tugu camp to the strategy of the Yuan army in Qingzhou is self-evident. This is different from Han Meng in the northern Bohai Leling City, although Han Meng is guarding a city with extremely convenient transportation, but the Yan army only needs to set aside more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to besiege the city, and then can send troops to cross the Yellow River to the south to invade the northern counties of Qingzhou...... Jizhou has not had foreign enemies for a long time, not to mention that Wei County is the capital of the imperial court, and there are Gao Lan's general headquarters stationed, and there are sufficient county soldiers in all parts of Jizhou, but Qingzhou does not!

Previously, in order to fight with Xuzhou, Yuan Shao transferred almost all the elite soldiers in Qingzhou, so that all the counties in Qingzhou were empty shelves, and the northbound battles were all dependent on the return of the new victories in the south for a long time, and as a result, the vanguard was besieged in Leling; And the emptiness of the counties led to the 'Lu Yi' leading troops across the border, running from Jinan to Le'an and disappearing in the eyes of the scouts, if the Yan clan's old skills were repeated in Qingzhou, it would lead to instability in the rear, and the elusive 'Lu Yi' would come out like the most vicious snake at any time to bite hard, who could stand it?

If you want to recover the fallen plains or even cross the Yellow River to the north to attack Jizhou and rescue Han Meng, you must first uproot the camp of Tugu. In fact, every time he thinks of this, Jiang Qi still feels a little lucky, at least what he needs to face is not a strong city like Leling, but this small earthen drum military village. Even if the military village is good, it is still a military village in the end, even if it is firmly defended, when the rear digging battalion catches up and digs out a few tunnels to trap the wall, it can be broken no matter what!

Even if it is a strong attack, according to Jiang Qi's calculations, the casualties that Yuan Gong can bear in order to uproot this military village and the nearly 10,000 soldiers in it are at least 5,000!

Seven hundred casualties, there is no need to have any doubts!

In the blink of an eye, the reorganized subordinates were divided into three formations by Jiang Qi, and concentrated their forces to storm the camp from all directions in turn, and continuously attacked the enemy from several directions of this huge camp by consuming a large number of arrows, making the koji in the camp miserable.

If he leads his troops from the city to suppress the fire, the enemy will retreat and attack again from another direction later; If he ignores the enemy's evasion, Jiang Qi will use a rain of arrows to throw into the camp to drive them away, and once there is a gap, he will send soldiers with a rough wooden ladder to rush and kill, which is difficult to guard.

In just two hours, it can make the Koji Yibu kill and wound more than a thousand, until the sky turns white.
