After the evil came and left, Zhao Ponu, the deputy commander of the First Legion of the Longxiang Army, walked in. This important general under Huo Quai's command in history has become Bai Qi's important assistant at this time.

can serve under the accounts of the two god generals respectively, and Zhao Ponu can be regarded as a big legend.

"Boss, isn't it too risky to do this?" Zhao Ponu obviously knew about the "Plan B", and his face was still difficult to hide his worries, and said: "The marshal is in danger with his life, which is really a taboo for soldiers. ”

This is not the first time Zhao Ponu has mentioned such words, but Bai Qi just didn't listen.

Sure enough, Bai Qi waved his hand again and said resolutely: "You don't have to persuade anymore, I have made up my mind." Dongchuan County is still too big, and there is only this way to guide the Dali coalition army to a fixed location. ”

The biggest difficulty in the plan is how to make the Dali coalition attack a certain target in accordance with the intentions of Daxia.

Without this, the Praetorian Guard led by Evil Lai would not have been able to set up an ambush in advance.

Yunnan Province is vast, with more than 100 cities, and it is really difficult to do this.

Therefore, the first arrangement made by Bai Qi was to take advantage of the tight battle situation in Shu and transfer the front-line headquarters from Lingxi City to Yongren City in Dongchuan County without a trace.

If Bai Qi guarded Lingxi City, with a hundred dares from the Dali coalition army, they would not dare to attack Lingxi City. Therefore, Wang Meng's so-called "strategic analysis" is nothing more than an early calculation.

This is exactly what Ouyang Shuo trusts Bai Qi.

In addition to the name of "Killing God", Bai Qi also has another combat characteristic that is easy to be ignored by the outside world, that is, Bai Qi's calculation and deduction like a machine. This commander-in-chief, who is "wooden" in the army, spends all day and night pondering the situation of the enemy and us, and constantly deduces the battle situation in his mind in combination with various intelligence.

The Battle of Changping in history is the pinnacle of this kind of deduction.

Devouring and killing is just a façade, or an illusion.

This time, if you want to complete Plan B beautifully, the only way to do so is to "use yourself as bait".

As Zhao Ponu said, this is very risky.

At present, only the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd divisions of the First Army of the Longxiang Army are stationed in Yongren City, and the brigades directly under the First Army are 43,000 people. After removing the auxiliary arms such as engineers, medical troops, and scouts, the real combat soldiers are only about 35,000.

With only more than 30,000 people, relying on a city that is not considered a fortified city, it is unsettling to think about blocking the siege of the enemy's 200,000-strong army.

One is not good, the city is broken by the enemy, and Bai Qi and others will not escape the fate of being captured.

Bai Qi is not a reckless man, there is an accurate calculation behind any decision, he glanced at Zhao Ponu, and said, "While there is still time, you should go and check the city defense in person." Whether you can block the first wave of enemy attacks, those city defenses are the key, and you must not be careless. ”

"No!"

When Zhao Ponu saw it, he could only retreat helplessly.

Under the slightly dim candlelight, Bai Qi was still writing and painting at his desk, and he didn't know what he was planning.

…………

Time flowed like water, and September of the fourth year of Gaia passed quietly.

It has been more than a month since Great Xia took the initiative to provoke a great war that affected the entire wilderness.

In the land of Bashu, Zhong Lingyu is beautiful.

The Danling Basin, where the Sword City is located, covers an area of nearly 40,000 square kilometers, although it is not as vast as the vast Lianzhou Basin, but it is also extremely vast, and you can't see the edge at a glance, with green grass and verdant mountains and trees.

In the center of the basin is the towering swordsman city, which is a bright pearl in Shu.

On October 1, after a fierce battle, the vanguard troops of Daxia took Meishan Pass together and officially entered the Danling Basin, and the army took Meishan Pass as a barrier and set up camp in the south of the Danling Basin.

Fifty miles away from the camp is the Swordsman City, and ten miles away from the southern suburbs of the Swordsman City is the Zhao Yunbu camp, which means that the two military camps are only forty miles apart, and the war is about to break out.

In the afternoon of the next day, the left and right guard troops of Daxia arrived at Meishan Pass, and after entering the pass, they set up camp on both wings of the left and right vanguard battalions.

In this way, the four field regiments of the Great Xia Longxiang Army were set up in the southern suburbs of the Danling Basin one after another, and the camp tents stretched for dozens of miles, occupying almost the entire southern suburbs.

After nearly a month of fierce battles, the four major army corps lost more than 30,000 people in the vanguard troops on the left and right, and the task of protecting the army on the left and right was not as arduous as that of the vanguard troops, but more than 10,000 people were lost.

Counting the garrison troops left in the passes and cities everywhere, only 220,000 troops actually arrived in the Danling Basin. This is still Bai Qi arranged for the two divisions of the First Army to enter Shu and be responsible for supervising the transportation of grain and grass, otherwise, the troops that the Long Xiang Army can really put into the decisive battle will never exceed 200,000.

On the side of Swordsman City, in addition to the 150,000 Praetorian Guards of the Shu Han Dynasty, the 50,000 remnant territory army, and then there is a Praetorian Guard Division responsible for guarding the Swordsman City, with a total strength of about 210,000.

Compared with the two, the two sides seem to be evenly matched, and the Swordsman City can be defended according to the city, with a home advantage, it is really difficult for Great Xia to take the Swordsman City.

Therefore, after the Longxiang army took Meishan Pass and arrived in the Danling Basin, it was not in a hurry to provoke a decisive battle, but built camps and reorganized armaments step by step, and seemed to be ready for a protracted war.

At the same time, countless grains and grass materials were continuously transported to the front line from the cities of Dongchuan County or Jiangyang County through more than 200,000 laborers temporarily requisitioned.

The Great Xia Army is not in a hurry, and Feng Qingyang is not in a hurry.

Yesterday, Emperor Chen and the others had already given Feng Qingyang a word of approval, saying that as soon as the decisive battle started, they would dispatch an army of 100,000 to suddenly descend on the Swordsman City and kill Daxia by surprise.

With 100,000 troops to help, the total strength of the Great Xia army on the opposite side was crushed, and there was a strong city to defend, Feng Qingyang had nothing to worry about, he just had to wait patiently for the Great Xia army to take the initiative to attack.

The most important thing is that Emperor Chen finally revealed the long-planned "Dali Plan" to Feng Qingyang, once the Dali coalition army broke through Dongchuan County and cut off the back road of the Great Xia army, then the Swordsman City could really sit back and relax.

Not only that, even the cities that Great Xia is now fighting, Feng Qingyang can also take them back one by one, maybe he can also use this to absorb the opposite Long Xiang army, so that the strength of Swordsman City will not decrease but rise.

Thinking like this, Feng Qingyang was secretly refreshed in his heart.

"Old fox, I'm going to pull your fox tail off this time." Feng Qingyang looked into the distance, and seemed to have seen the moment of revenge, which was really wonderful.

In this way, the two warring sides form a situation of confrontation, that is, they do not know who will break the deadlock.

The variables of the war are in Dali, in Dongchuan County.

Just as the Long Xiang Army was confronting Swordsman City, a piece of news suddenly pierced the sky over the wilderness.

October 3rd, an ordinary day, was destined to go down in the annals of wilderness.

On the morning of this day, the 200,000 allied forces composed of Yuncheng, the Dali Imperial Court and the [Xiao League] brazenly crossed the border and invaded Dongchuan County, Yunnan Province, Great Xia, and took the initiative to provoke a war with Great Xia.

The 200,000-strong army swept across the border like a flood of annihilation, frantically pouring into the territory of Dongchuan County, setting off a continuous cloud of gunsmoke, and the front of the army was directed at Yongin City, which was located in the northernmost part of Dongchuan County.

The coalition forces even played a high-profile war slogan of "grasping the white rise alive" with great momentum.

In the face of such a large army, the prefectures and counties of Dongchuan County, which had just been removed from the garrison division, could only tremble under the iron hooves of the enemy. Of course, even if the garrison division is not removed, I am afraid that it will be a mantis arm as a car.

After receiving the news, the prefects and county commanders in Dongchuan County, as local parents, were either ready to die generously, or they had the intention of surrendering the city.

For the sworn enemy of Daxia, the Dali coalition army did not have a trace of mercy.

Wherever the army passed, there was wolf smoke, and the lives were devastated, and the blood flowed like a river like the end times. This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the people of Daxia, who have gradually become accustomed to peaceful days.

Fortunately, the Dali coalition army was in a hurry, and they wanted to surround Yongren City before Bai Qi could react, so they didn't want to delay time on the way, otherwise, they might have to spoil Dongchuan County into something.

In contrast, the Great Xia Army can really be called a division of benevolence and righteousness.

……………

As soon as the news of the Dali coalition army came out, the entire wilderness shook violently, shocking the eyeballs of the ground.

"Are Dali crazy, they dare to take the initiative to provoke Daxia?"

Seeing the victory of the Great Xia Army in Shudi, the players in China already believed that Great Xia would be able to capture the Swordsman City, where did they think that a Dali coalition army would emerge at this time.

"Cloud City, what is that place?"

Cloud City, which led this battle, was not known to the outside world at all, and its nationality was unknown, and many spectators were inexplicable.

"Haha, there's a good show to watch now, this is the first time that Great Xia has been invaded by the enemy, right? I don't know how King Xia will be angry when he says that he has no clothes, I'm afraid that he will bleed thousands of miles......"

Who doesn't know Ouyang Shuo's temperament, if he suffers a loss, he will definitely be beaten back.

"Dare to touch the tiger's buttocks, Xiao Mutuo has a kind, just by virtue of this, I am convinced!" At this time, Xiao Mutuo, the lord of Cloud City, was "famous in a fight" and completely became famous in the wilderness.

"Hehe, sit back and wait for the tiger to wield its might!"

Although the Dali coalition army is mighty, the outside world is not very worried about Daxia, and those who know a little bit about it know that the capital of Daxia is still guarding three Praetorian Guard legions.

After a series of battles, the Great Xia Praetorian Guard has long become synonymous with the strongest troops in the wilderness.

"As soon as the Praetorian guards come out, who will compete!"

There are Janissaries in Great Xia, just like there is a Dinghai God Needle.

It is precisely because of this that the outside world is generally not optimistic about the Dali coalition that suddenly appeared in the field of vision.

But at this moment, news kept coming.

Almost at the same time, in the five major provinces of Kyoto, Donghai, Jiangnan, Jingchu and Kansai, the army stationed on the border of the [Yanhuang League] changed its previous passive defense and began to move frequently to provoke on the border.

Looking at the direction of the wind, [Yanhuang League] seems to be preparing to attack in an all-out way.

This has doubled the pressure on the Great Xia allies such as Stubborn Stone City and Western Chu, and the army's morale is unstable.

Undoubtedly, the [Yanhuang Alliance] did not mean to drink alcohol, but to use all-out pressure on the Great Xia allies to contain the Great Xia Praetorian Guard and prevent it from reinforcing Dongchuan County.
