Chapter 118: Killing people in pits doesn't pay for their lives

The army outside the city retreated in an orderly manner.

Lu Yao immediately sent scouts to follow. Mo Yo waited for a scout to report, and the enemy retreated ten miles back and camped, without the slightest sign of withdrawal, and it was suspected that he was preparing to attack again.

"Alliance leader, the situation is not good." I ate the sweet potato, worriedly pulling my gaze away from the scout.

Lu Yao smiled indifferently. He understood the meaning of my words about eating sweet potatoes, not that the situation in Yingchuan City was not good, but that the situation of the thief running this strange army was not good.

In ancient large-scale operations, large camps were often set up about 20 to 30 miles away from the target. First, it can prevent the opponent from sending troops to attack their own grain and grass. Second, it can also avoid that once the battlefield in front is lost, the other party will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, so that there is no room for turnaround.

Now the enemy army has retreated ten miles to recuperate. It's an awkward distance. The thief ran fast and led the army to sneak attack.

Too soon, the enemy's headquarters will be able to turn around in a short time. Whether the 5,000 cavalry can complete the task at that time is another matter, and it is already a fluke that half of them can be withdrawn. Too late, the situation in Yingchuan City was urgent, and it was impossible to guarantee that the battle damage would remain at a low level.

"Don't worry, the situation is the opposite now. We have a lot of time. And time is running out for them. Lu Yao explained with a smile, looking light.

I ate sweet potatoes and the others looked at each other and pondered.

"I see." Shenxiao Sword suddenly realized that his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Lu Yao.

The enemy retreated, apparently with no intention of stopping. Then comes the final showdown. Either the enemy took Yingchuan with the advantage of numbers and morale, or the thief ran quickly and succeeded in time to burn the enemy's grain and grass to complete the turnaround.

When the grain and grass are burned, the morale of the enemy will inevitably drop greatly, and when a wave of counterattacks is launched, the situation will be completely reversed. At that time, the advantage of one's own numbers and morale was fully capable of chasing and grabbing people's heads like rabbits. In exchange for less than 10,000 troops, it can be written into a textbook at all.

Now that I think about it, the game-breaking method that everyone discussed together before is compared with the alliance leader's game-breaking method...... It's embarrassing.

At this time, I ate sweet potatoes and others also figured out the meaning of Lu Yao's words. Their faces were suddenly hot, and they became more and more convinced by Lu Yao, and they wanted to pry Lu Yao's head open to see the brain circuits. How many steps would it take to come up with such a detailed and cost-effective strategy.

Lu Yao took in the changes in the expressions on everyone's faces and smiled slightly. Actually, this is not a complicated strategy. The fundamental reason is that the Huaxia Alliance despises itself on the surface, but in fact attaches great importance to it. This gave him the opportunity to make a plan and use the Taiping Technique and special classes to create miraculous results.

You have black technology, I have artifacts and special forces.

It wasn't until noon that a dense army once again poured out of the city. Ten catapults rushed to the front line in a grand manner. Dozens of carts followed, surrounded by thousands of soldiers, loaded with stone bullets.

"They seem to be planning to get serious." I ate sweet potatoes and smacked my mouth, looking worried.

A cart loaded with about ten stone bullets, which were held in place with ropes, looked like a hill from a distance. Dozens of carts add up, and the number of stone bullets is fully hundreds, almost filling the urn city. If the target is higher, at least a tenth of the city will be affected.

Shenxiao Jian and the others also looked solemn. Anyone who thought that hundreds of stone bullets would smash the east gate into thousands of holes and almost fill it up, they would shudder. It's all about crushing with high technology.

"Can you really defend Yingchuan?"

A thought came to everyone's minds. I couldn't help but persuade out loud when I ate sweet potatoes: "Alliance leader, let's go out of the city and face them head-on." If this continues, Yingchuan City will have to be smashed. ”

"Yes, Alliance Leader." Shenxiao Jian also persuaded on the side: "Those stone bullets are smashed, even if they can't kill a few people, it will have a great impact on the morale of the whole army." When the time comes, they will attack the city again, and it will take at least three or five soldiers to stop one of them. ”

"Yes, take advantage of their audacity to let the catapults go ahead, and I will lead the troops out of the city with a wave of rhythm and destroy those catapults." Loyalty and righteousness are unparalleled, and the fighting spirit is high, and he takes the initiative to ask for battle.

Righteous Iron Blood and Moon and White Star glanced at each other, and they both saw approval in each other's eyes. The two of them kept silent in a tacit understanding, and moved to the side of me eating sweet potatoes without a trace, expressing their meaning with practical actions.

Lu Yao swept over these bigwigs in his previous life and smiled dumbly: "Your ideas are good, but your vision is not long-term enough. Let me ask you, is Yingchuan ours? ”

I ate sweet potatoes and others were confused and shook their heads blankly.

Yingchuan was indeed taken from the Yellow Turban Army by the Mutual Aid Alliance, but the ownership is still the imperial court, and it has nothing to do with them. But what does this have to do with the current critical situation?

"Since it's not ours, what does it have to do with us being destroyed?" Lu Yao asked again.

Several people shook their heads again.

"That's fine. All we need is to wait until the thieves run and burn their food. Before that, it didn't matter even if they occupied Yingchuan. And there's a more important point. Lu Yao suddenly smiled mysteriously.

I ate sweet potatoes and waited for others to suddenly feel an inexplicable chill. This weird smile is too terrifying.

"Yingchuan is not an ordinary small city." Lu Yao said slowly with deep meaning.

"Not your average town?"

I ate sweet potatoes and waited for others to frown and think again. It's embarrassing to talk to a great god, and it always takes a lot of brain cells to understand.

It didn't take long for Yue Baixing to suddenly shake his head with a bitter face and said, "I kind of understand." Alliance leader, I have to say that whoever goes against you is definitely dying. It's just a pit that doesn't pay for people's lives."

"Skystar, what do you mean?" Shenxiao Sword pulled Yue Tianxing and asked urgently. He really couldn't think of what the alliance leader was trying to say.

Several other people also cast their eyes on the face of Yue Baixing, full of anticipation.

Yue Baixing smiled bitterly: "To put it in detail, it is the alliance leader who has laid a dead end for those people outside the city, the kind of death without life. If you think about it carefully, what is the most famous in Yingchuan City? ”

When I mentioned it here, I was not stupid to eat sweet potatoes and others, and I immediately understood. So everyone looked at Lu Yao with a little more fear in their eyes.

The leader of the alliance is terrible.

"Yes, from the very beginning I laid them a dead end with no solution." Lu Yao smiled faintly, and directly affirmed Yue Tianxing's guess: "In the eyes of those of them, the mutual aid alliance is only supported by me alone. So I didn't plan to show up at first, so they didn't dare to give it a go. ”

After a pause, he looked approvingly at me eating sweet potatoes, and said with a smile: "You have done a very good job, first to consume their sharpness, and then use their inner line lurking in the mutual aid alliance to make them suspicious, and withdraw the troops halfway." This in turn consumed their sharpness and completely damaged their morale. ”

"When they came to their senses, they were angry and wanted to launch a general attack, and then you stood up and let their sharpness lower again. When the alliance leader used military tactics to deter them, their morale had dropped again, and they were no longer a strong army. After being calculated several times, they will inevitably become angry and desperate to be ruthless. I ate sweet potatoes and smiled evilly and rushed to replenish them.

In the end, they were allowed to destroy Yingchuan, causing the disgust of those NPC warriors. Then...... Tsk, not to mention that they want to earn some meritorious prestige, even if they are not wanted by the imperial court, even if they have a big face. Loyal and righteous laughed and finished the last piece of the puzzle.

The crowd laughed and laughed very happily.

There's nothing quite like watching your competitors get deflated.

What about Yingchuan giving it to them. As long as the thief runs quickly to complete the task, he can recapture Yingchuan at any time, and by the way, he can harvest a wave of heads heartily, and it will not cost too much, and in the end, the competitors will get nothing, and they may even be forced to not even keep the territory.

High, really high.

I eat sweet potatoes and the others have completely lost the mind to compete with Lu Yao secretly. This battle alone is enough to prove that Lu Yao is far ahead of everyone.

Lu Yao smiled with relief and led Zhao Yun to the stairs: "Okay, they're about to start going crazy, hurry up and flash people now." Don't forget to set up suspicious soldiers. You don't need me to teach this, do you? ”

"Slow down, let's take care of this little thing." I ate sweet potatoes and the others laughed, and immediately arranged to go separately.
