Chapter 1237: Your Deception of Coming and Going
Yu Di came to inquire about the details of the battle for the first time and found a problem: "According to your statement, Tan Shang is not here. β
He didn't care why Xie Peng was working hard, whether Ding Kui was more powerful than before, but he was more concerned about the composition of the other party's personnel.
"I've been paying attention to the neighborhood, and there is indeed no one in ambush, I'm afraid Tan Shang is really not in Matu City. Kou Zimo also noticed this.
Hao Dong calmed down and analyzed: "The current weather is suitable for the battle of the water magician, and if he wants to make a move, we will definitely not have good fruit to eat."
If he is not here, he can only be in Kwai Hecheng, which shows that Ding Kui has no intention of giving up Kwai Hecheng, and with today's actions, he may really have a plot against the acting marshal. β
Yudi lowered his head and stared at his toes, deducing quickly in his heart. It was inconvenient for him to get rid of these sixth-level combat power, so he could only use other methods to concentrate.
"We didn't see Tan Shang when we came from Kwai Hecheng, what did he hide in the city for?" Yan Ce didn't understand, "He is the weak side over there, and it is unlikely that he will use the forbidden spell to sneak attack, at most, it will confuse our vision and make us make wrong judgments." β
"Yes, the enemy's purpose is to confuse us!" Yu Di raised his head, "We can't be led by the nose, instead of trying our best to guess what the enemy thinks, let the enemy guess us." β
Hao Dong sat up straight and asked, "What good can you do?" In fact, he didn't have too high expectations in his heart, he had never seen Yu Di take advantage of Ding Kui.
"The enemy can mobilize troops and horses, and so can we, now transfer 10,000 people from the North Battalion to the South Battalion, and then I will send the North 22nd Division to the south with great fanfare, ostensibly to support the North 2nd Army, but in fact let them return to the South Camp at night. Yu Di's tone became more and more firm.
"Well, a false shot can scare Ding Kui, and the troops who sneak attack are afraid of being counter-sneak attacked, so at least it can put psychological pressure on Ding Kui. Hao Dong thinks this is feasible.
The army moved, and the northern and southern camps had soldiers and horses moving south, and some soldiers sprinkled water on the perimeter of the barracks, turning the wooden fence into an ice wall, mainly to defend against the new weapons of the Shaodian armyβ*.
The Shaodian Army did not react, and Yudi was not worried that they did not know that the scouts of their own army within the scope of Matu City were not the opponents of the Shaodian Army.
Yudi did not simply mobilize the two divisions, but also let the other divisions run back and forth between the north and south camps, so he should let the soldiers run to warm up and save some firewood in the camp.
In this way, he can pretend to cover up the actions of the North 22nd Division, and use fake actions to cover up fake actions, Yudi is trying his best to deceive Ding Kui.
The large-scale transfer did not end until nightfall, and it was dark, so be careful of Ding Kui!
No one wants to fight with Ding Kui at night, someone has specially counted that Ding Kui kills more people at night than during the day, indicating that Ding Kui is the darling of the demon clan and is good at fighting at night.
Of course, this is a deliberate attempt to discredit Ding Kui's statement, and the people of his country can't wait for the big alliance to send someone to clean up Ding Kui as a demon.
When Ding Kui heard this, he said disdainfully: "Then I will kill more of my own people during the day in the future." β
"There seems to be movement from the enemy. Kou Zimo first noticed the problem.
In order to prevent Ding Kui from leading a night attack, the three sixth-level combat power of his army arranged to be on duty at night in turn, so that they could at least discover the enemy's whereabouts in advance.
Kou Zimo was in the middle of the class, and because there was no movement, he ran out for a walk, and it was this time that he found that there was a fire in the west of Matu City, and it seemed that a large number of troops were marching.
Yu Di habitually asked: "How many people are there in the enemy army to the west?"
"How do I know!" Kou Zimo showed a look of disgust.
The west side of Matu City is considered the rear of the enemy, and it is very dangerous to reconnoiter to the enemy's rear, even the big archers may not be able to retreat with their whole body, don't forget that the "darling of the demon clan" is here.
Yu Di sank his face but did not dare to attack, and said to himself: "Could it be that we can go around Aoi Castle from the west? This will avoid our eyes and ears? No, no, no, it is possible for them to go around to the north to attack the northern camp." β
He said he didn't want to be led by the nose by the enemy. But once the enemy moved, he had to react passively.
"Someone, I've ordered the North Battalion to strengthen its vigilance, especially to the west and north. β
At the same time, the own army of Aoi Castle made a similar discovery.
"The enemy army only entered the city in the evening, and now the enemy army is out of the city?" Dai Gu was confused.
He could confirm the news from Yudi that the enemy army south of Matu City had entered Aoi Castle right under his nose.
The strength of the 2nd Northern Army was still intact, and he was not afraid of 20,000 or 30,000 enemy troops coming to steal the camp, but why did the enemy march at night when he was so good?
"Could it be that the enemy army is trying to escape?" Gong Yelei analyzed according to normal logic, "The enemy army is not coming to Beijun to fight with our army, it is likely to be to grab some property, and now that he has succeeded, why continue to fight hard with our army? Ding Kui is going to withdraw his army!"
Dai Gu disagreed, and said: "If our army had just arrived at that time, such an analysis would be very reasonable, but now that the Northern First Army has been destroyed, and the Northern Third Army has only the strength to protect itself, Ding Kui will repel my soldiers and horses again, then there will be no soldiers and horses to stop his invasion in the short term, and he will not give up such a good opportunity." β
"I'll go see what's going on. Ban Di stood up, expecting that it would be better to investigate the truth than to analyze it for a long time.
This time, both Dai Gu and Gong Yelei were in favor of letting Ban Di go to reconnoitre.
The wind and snow were much lighter tonight, and there were occasional snowflakes falling in the sky, and the wind was not strong, and even the snow that bent the treetops could not blow.
Banda effortlessly stretched out the ice shield and flew freely in the wind and snow, as if he had become the master of the sky, each snowflake transmitting his perception.
When he was about to fly over Aoi Castle, a chill suddenly rose in his heart, a bad omen! He immediately slowed down, and his spiritual power spread out in all directions.
Sure enough, when he swept over the castle tower, he collided with another spiritual force.
Forbidden law for the enemy!
"Hehe, there's a guest visiting!"
A blue light flashed from the castle tower, and a figure rose at the same time as the voice.
"So you're hiding here. Ban Di recognized the owner of that spiritual power, Tan Shang. He had fought with Tan Shang in Nanqiu County, and they were all familiar with each other.
"Master Ban, there are troops of the Eighth Legion here, how can I say that I am hiding here? Tan Shang also stretched out the ice shield and floated in the air.
These two are both water forbidden magicians, and they have no advantages or disadvantages in the wind and snow, and they are a pair that are on par.
"There's an action tonight? I need to bother you to sit in person in the middle of the night. "He knew that he couldn't easily find out the enemy tonight.
"Yes, I'm going to attack your camp, do you think I'll let you go?" Tan Shang has been fighting with the army for many years, don't think about it so easy to get words out of his mouth.
Ban Tu retreated some distance, not daring to be careless, after all, this place was closer to the enemy camp, and the helpers of the others came faster.
"I don't know what you're capable of? You can't keep me. "He doesn't lose momentum.
"Then try it!" Tan Shang turned his hand and took out his magic wand, and the magic core of the wand head suddenly lit up.
Next is the practice of water magic, the two forbidden spells are about the same, only to see the blue light flashing in the air, ice arrows, ice spikes, ice balls, etc. flying sideways, basically using low-level magic.
From a visual point of view, they played very well, almost all the magic that turned water into ice appeared, and the two of them were almost the same in terms of the level of manipulating the energy of heaven and earth, and they would not abandon the active ice elemental energy.
Judging from the actual combat effect, they all hit 0 damage, and the forbidden law with close strength beat each other, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a few days and nights.
The towers of the city were lit with fire and noise, and it seemed that soldiers had gathered.
"I'm leaving, do you want to come along?" said Ban Tu.
"The victory is not scored, leave off!" Tan Shang had no intention of stopping.
When Ban Di heard this, he became even more determined to go, and blew up an ice blast in front of Tan Shang, and then turned his head and flew away.
Tan Shang relentlessly chased after him, constantly shooting ice arrows in an attempt to slow down Ban Di's speed.
The two chased and fled, flying out of a distance, and seeing that it was impossible for the Shaodian army to run over, Ban Tu confirmed that it was safe, so he turned back and fought again.
Sailors to sailors, who is afraid of whom!
After about half an hour of fierce fighting, Tan Shang probably realized that he couldn't get a result, and said, "You wait here, I'll call a helper." β
"Just call, I'm going to clean up together. β
The two of them stopped after the last trick in their mouths, Tan Shang flew back to Kwai Hecheng, where would Ban Tu be stupid and wait, and naturally flew back to the camp.
"Ding Kui really wants to withdraw!" Gong Yelei was even more determined to his thoughts after listening to Ban Di's narration.
"Tonight's matter is full of suspicions, you said that Tan Shang deliberately prevented Master Ban from probing the military situation, then why did you let our army scouts detect the enemy army out of the city at night? Isn't it easier for Tan Shang to clean up a few scouts, Ding Kui is good at deception, and he used the trick of fake retreat and real ambush in Beiluan County. "Dai Gu has palpitations.
His idea is very simple, there is no time limit to drive Ding Kui away, as long as he stabilizes his position and retains the strength of the Northern Route Army, sooner or later he can force Ding Kui to take the initiative to withdraw, and there is no need to take huge risks for a little result.
Thinking that he took the initiative to fight but lost the Northern First Army, his heart was like being stabbed with a sword, and the pain made him often unable to sleep at night.
No matter what happened to the Shaodian army, Dai Gu stood still, stood firm in the barracks, and refused to send troops out at night.
Gong Yelei has no basis to argue, it is his duty to make suggestions, and the final decision has to be made on his behalf. He recorded everything and submitted it to the General Staff after the war, and let the General Staff decide whether it was right or wrong.
This is the right of the Chief of Staff, and it is the reason why all commanders-in-chief cannot ignore the Chief of Staff.
The Shaodian Guoding family has such a great influence in the army, which is related to their long-term control of the General Staff, and it is up to them to endorse who fights well or not.
Finally staying up until dawn, Gong Yelei took the initiative to apply to lead the scouts out of the camp to personally inquire about the situation of the enemy army, and the agent did not refuse.
Gong Yelei took a hundred cavalry, and after leaving the camp, he went straight to the south gate of Kwai Hop City, not observing secretly like ordinary scouts, but walking the avenue in a dignified manner.
The hundred cavalry were afraid that an enemy army would emerge somewhere and take their back route.
