Chapter 1011: The main force came to the aid of the chaotic war
Feng Run ordered the demolition of the houses in Sancha Town and the manufacture of equipment to defend against crossbow arrows, such as baffles, sandbags, mobile bunkers converted from board trucks, etc., "You were the first to plan with the eldest prince to attack Juyang City, you should know what Ding Kui is all about, can you tell me?" he called Lang Chun and asked.
Lang Chun told everything he knew.
"King Shaodian's own sister is here, no wonder there are so many master-level masters. Feng Run seemed to think of something, "No, that Ding Kui is the only seedling of the Ding family, and the Eighth Legion is loyal to the Ding family, so it will definitely make a big move in this direction." ”
"That's right, if you don't defeat the 71st Division, how can you come in the starry night. "Lang Chun is clear.
"Do you think they are using the latest weapons developed by the Shaodian military?" Feng Run thought a lot after figuring out Ding Kui's background.
"Uh. Lang Chun was stunned, "If it is, it will be troublesome." ”
Are you kidding! If the Shaodian military uses crossbows on a large scale, how will this battle be fought in the future as a large number of reinforcements arrive? 3,000 crossbowmen and 5,000 elite cavalry will beat this 40,000-strong army and dare not go out.
If there are 10,000 crossbowmen here today, there is no need for the protection of elite cavalry, and more than 10,000 cavalry rushing forward is not enough for people to stuff their teeth.
"I feel that the enemy's large army is not far from here, and Hengfu City must have contact with the outside world, so Ding Kui will lead the army out to join the enemy's 71st Division. They dare to run here to block us, and there is something strange about how they would rather fight us in the field when they have such a powerful long-range weapon. The more Feng Run thought about it, the more frightened he became.
"But Yushuai's order?" Lang Chun heard the meaning of Feng Run's words.
"Qinglan City, Baiting City, and Xixuan City can't be lost! Port City can be handed over to Yuda people to deal with, Juyang City has nearly 100,000 local troops, and the strength of the besieging city is enough. ”
The Northern Fifth Army Corps was responsible for guarding the four cities of Qinglan, Baiting, Xixuan and Port. Now the 41st Division is in Qinglan City, the 42nd Division is in Baiting City, and the 43rd Division is in Xixuancheng, and there are only more than 2,000 people left in the 50th Division that were originally stationed in Port City and Hump Mountain, and they remain in the reserve camp with the 48th and 49th Divisions, and finally there are more than 20,000 people currently in Sancha Town.
If the cities on the periphery of the occupied area are lost, it will be difficult to fight back, so Feng Run plans to leave the port city alone and concentrate his forces to defend the three outer cities first. If he can't defeat the Eighth Army of Shaodian, he can ask for help, provided that there are enough troops to hold out until reinforcements arrive.
At dusk, Ding Kui withdrew his troops, because Port City sent war horses to respond, so by the time Feng Run reacted, the 71st Division and the Red Army had disappeared.
When Ding Kui returned to Port City, the first thing he did was to send the cavalry left behind to go out of the city to ambush, and the troops of the daytime battle took turns to rest, but unfortunately he didn't wait until midnight to wait for the troops who came to seal Run.
"The enemy in Sancha Town sent cavalry out to drive away the scouts, but there was no sign of marching at all. Zhong Wei personally went to Sancha Town. He didn't contribute to the daytime battle, but he couldn't use his strength, and he watched Lei Feixiang show off.
"I'm scared of you, and I'm guessing I'm going to have to readjust my tactics. Kong Wei was temporarily transferred to Ding Kui's side as a staff officer.
Ding Kui pinched his chin and said, "Order to withdraw the cavalry troops outside the city." ”
"Yes!" Ding Cai ran out of the meeting room.
"The commander of the enemy army is called Feng Run, and he is a cautious person. Ding Kui judged from the tactics of his own army during the day.
"That's right, he's still very calm, let my suspicious soldiers jump around, and wait for me to attack Port City, and then he will use the main force. Dong Ba and Feng Run indirectly fought for a few days.
"Yes, Sister Yan. Ding Kui turned his head to look at Ao Yan, "Please go back to Hengfu City, and come over with Brother Moult and Qian Offering." There is an emergency you managed to inform me. ”
"Good. Ao Yan didn't say much.
She knew that Jiang Tong was in Hengfu City, and she had special means to contact Ding Kui, and he could quickly transfer, so it was most suitable for guarding Hengfu City alone.
"Are you worried that your own Kou will attack Port City?" Ding Kun looked at Ao Yan who was leaving, and guessed a little bit of Ding Kui's thoughts.
"It is very likely that Feng Run will not move, and the one who will deal with us will become the commander of the enemy army, and the one named Yudi can use all the master-level masters; this is not far from the Giant Sheep City and the county town, and the enemy's main force and local army will arrive tomorrow. "Ding Kui is preparing for the worst.
In fact, he was really blinded, Yudi was shocked and angry when he learned of Feng Run's defeat, and immediately ordered Hao Dong and Lang Chun to return to the camp in the war zone, so that the 21st and 22nd divisions would immediately rush to Juyang City, and supervise the local army to build siege equipment overnight, preparing to cross Hump Mountain to attack Port City tomorrow.
Without waiting for Ao Yu and Shi to rush to Port City, Ao Yan brought a surprise to Ding Kui.
The first surprise was that Meng's warships brought a large number of ordnance, and Ao Yan loaded some of them to port the city by the way, including crossbow arrows, bows and arrows, spears, swords, spears, swords and shields and other consumable and fragile ordnance, which solved the logistics supply problem of the port.
The second surprise was the news from Jiang Zhi's order, "Arrive in three days", a few words containing incomparable confidence, normally it takes a day to march from Kada City to Port City.
Ding Kui immediately adjusted the strength of the defenders, the 71st Division and the Protector Red Army were each responsible for the two city walls, and the Magician Regiment and the sixth-level combat power were in the center as the firefighting team, and they had to hold on for two more days no matter what.
When Ao Yu came to Port City, he complained to Ding Kui, "Can't you let me sleep well and come back?"
However, this night is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.
Qinglan City was attacked in the second half of the night, and the banner of the 72nd Division and the 73rd Division of the Eighth Army of the Shaodian Kingdom was unfurled under the city, and there were no less than five hundred magicians flying in the sky, as well as an ice dragon tens of meters long.
There is no doubt that the main force of the Eighth Legion has been killed, and even the chief magician Tan Shang is also in the siege sequence.
Feng Run received the news that Qinglan City was broken when the sky was bright, and immediately ordered the expansion of the military fortress in Sancha Town, and ordered all the soldiers and horses of the reserve battalion to come to Sancha Town to assemble. He knew very well about the next move of the Shaodian Army, and he would definitely come to rescue Port City.
As soon as the headquarters of the Eighth Legion moved into Qinglan City, there was a quarrel inside.
"Old General Hua, you can't be too greedy! We didn't rob this Qinglan City with you, are you embarrassed to dispute Koucheng with us?"
Boss Dong is not here, and the qualifications of Hua Mo in the Eighth Army are old, who dares to accuse him to his face?
"Xiao Qiao said it well! The 72nd and 73rd divisions should have a reasonable rest after a tired night, and the 78th division is ready to go, just waiting for the chief of staff to give an order, and the subordinates can go to Port City for lunch!"
And there's more than one.
"My subordinates want to ask the chief of staff a question, is the 77th Division raised by the queen mother? Why has it always been a reserve? Is it discriminating against someone Luo?
"Presumptuous! How do you talk to the chief of staff? Don't you know how hard it will take to get here? My subordinates have only warmed up, and they should let us rush to Port City for lunch. The white-haired Bloomer stood in the middle of the hall with his helmet in his hand.
In the meeting hall of the original city lord's mansion, only Wang Chou was eating alone, and everyone else gathered in front of Jiang Zhi.
"Can you stop arguing first?" Jiang Zhi looked helpless, "The situation of the enemy army is unknown, and it is not yet time to decide who to attack." ”
"You can rest assured, no matter what the enemy's situation is, the 80th Division is willing to open the way for the army, and if it can't be done, its subordinates will ask for punishment. Qiao Meng was eager to write down the military order immediately.
"I'm afraid it's not easy!" Tan Shanggang approached the conference hall, "Hengfu City summoned that Ding Kui and Dong Ba repelled tens of thousands of their own troops in Sanchahe Town, but their own army was still entrenched in Sancha Town. ”
Immediately, a staff officer rolled out a map between Qinglan City and Port City, Jiang Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to check, and several division commanders who had just quarreled also surrounded him.
"Well, this is the only way to Port City, and even if we set off now, it will be almost noon, and the enemy army can build a simple camp, and there are tens of thousands of troops among them, and it will be difficult to take it in a hurry. Jiang Zhi quickly found out the location of Sancha Town.
"Boss Dong and Little Marquis can repel tens of thousands of enemy troops in the field, and they must be able to hold the port city, maybe we don't have to rush there. "Elder Bloomer has a big picture.
"I can go over and see how it's going to be. Tan Shang proposed. The magic power of the main force of the Eighth Legion is sufficient, and it does not have much impact on him to leave in a short time.
Luo Tao, Shu Li, Qiao Meng and others looked at Tan Shang enviously.
"Our purpose is to repel the Jikou in Nanqiu County, not simply to hit Port City, and our army has already appeared, the next attack will lose its suddenness, it is best to fight more and fight less to minimize the losses of our army. Let's all sum it up. Jiang Zhi's prestige is not enough, so he can only coordinate everyone to reach a consensus.
Shu Li said slowly: "It's nothing more than three choices, connect Port City, capture Xixuan City or Baiting City. It is best to connect Port City and then retake the Giant Sheep City and force the enemy army to fight a decisive battle with our army. ”
"I'll see it!" Wang Chou had already eaten his stomach, "We are operating in the southernmost part of the country, attracting the main force of the enemy army, which can reduce the pressure on the northern boundary city, and when the Kong army arrives, the enemy will be difficult to take care of the north and south." ”
"Do you have any other opinions?" Jiang Zhi agreed with this style of play.
Qiao Meng raised a hand and said, "Yes, my subordinates asked to take the lead." ”
The chamber crackled again.
Jiang Zhi looked at Tan Shang with a pleading look, Tan Shang thought, the temperature in the conference hall dropped sharply, and a piece of cold ice appeared in Tan Shang's hand, "Don't make any noise, listen to the arrangement of the chief of staff, come and eat this ice if you are not convinced, whoever eats it within ten breaths will have the right of first choice." ”
The division commanders were silent, thinking in their hearts whether they could eat the ice cubes in ten breaths. The ice was the size of a bucket, and it could be broken within ten breaths, but it was impossible to eat it.
The young chief of staff can ignore it, but the face of the forbidden magician has to be given, and this world still has the final say.
"In this way, I will make arrangements based on everyone's opinions, the 77th and 78th Divisions will go to attack Sancha Town, and if not, they will set up camp and confront each other; the 80th Division is responsible for feints to attack Baiting City and Xixuan City, and if the enemy's main force rescues them, they can withdraw to Qinglan City; Master Tan will go to Port City to understand the situation, and the rest of the troops will stay here with me. ”
