Chapter 1091: The Battle of the New Year (Part I)

On the night of January 14, 4879, the last day of the armistice, the war clouds were gathering in Nanqiu County, and the scouts were secretly fighting at the junction of the two armies, and both sides sent magicians to help reconnoiter the military situation.

However, Ding Kui did not stay in the military camp of Baiqiu Town, and it was the battalions and regiments of the Red Army that disappeared with him.

Jiang Zhi made a rare appearance in Baiqiu Town, followed by the 71st Division, and half of the Eighth Army Corps was assembled in place.

As soon as he arrived, he summoned all the generals to raise the account.

"General Dong, please lead the 71st Division to ......"

"General Luo, please lead the 77th Division to ......"

"General Shu, please lead the 78th Division to ......"

Give orders in an orderly manner.

"Zhang Dingyuan, Lin Xuanmo, listen to orders. ”

"Humble duty!" the two staff officers came out together to take the order.

"The two of you command the 74th and 75th divisions to strictly guard this large camp, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without our military order, and those who violate the order will be immediately beheaded. ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Dingyuan and Lin Xuanmo both breathed a sigh of relief.

In such a tense atmosphere, with so many troops, there will definitely be a big battle, and the commander of the Zhengyin Division is not there, and if they want to lead the troops to carry out the arduous task, they are not confident, but fortunately it is only a defensive task.

There is also a high-pressure atmosphere in the city of Nanqiu, where anyone who walks on the streets must apply for a pass pass or else be arrested, or even killed on the spot.

"Your Excellency, the first part of the Northern Fourth Army has been assembled. ”

"The camp of the northern part of the county has made an urgent report, an hour ago to repel dozens of enemy scout teams, and each team is accompanied by a magician. ”

"Chunlu City reported that a large number of enemy troops went upstream to the Chunlu River. ”

"It was reported that the Chunlu River ferry did not come back on time. ”

“......”

"Chunlu River?" Yu Di walked to the sand table with questions, "Hmph, does the enemy want to repeat the old trick?"

The last time the Shaodian Army recovered Chunlu City was in April 74, when it was the rainy season, Jin Man planned to flood Chunlu City, and Yu Di didn't know that Ding Kui and Ao Yu contributed a lot.

Gong Yelei leaned over and said, "It's starting to rain lightly outside." ”

"Oh?" Yu Di turned sharply to look out the window, "Could it be that the enemy has the ability to call the wind and rain?"

"It occasionally rains at this time of year, and my subordinates know the local climate. "Gongyelei has done his homework.

"Then Spring Dew City must be guarded, the chief of staff must remind them. Order, prepare more rafts and kayaks, and let Shuizhai send an underwater force to the county seat to stand by. ”

Yudi did not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, suffered a big loss like the Meng people, and prepared in advance for the enemy's water attack.

"If the enemy really attacks with water, he will have to wait for the water to retreat before he can enter the city, so send some more magicians to Chunlu City to prevent the enemy from dispatching master-level masters. Gongyelei suggested.

"Yes, you can arrange it. "Yudi is more concerned about the attack plan of the Northern Fourth Army.

This time he made a big move, and it was a joint operation with the navy, vowing to take the Shaodian army by surprise.

After the recent scout war, some movements of the Shaodian army were detected by their own army, such as the Jiaxin City defenders were replaced by the 80th and 111th divisions, and the Xining City defenders were the 72nd and 76th divisions.

In the early morning of 15 January, a mist rose on the surface of the Tongyuan River, and a large number of warships suddenly drilled out of the white mist.

"Report to the marshal, the enemy naval army is attacking the river bank, and the east of Dingjiang City is also threatened. "The scout is coming.

Kong Cheng led a group of generals to the east of the city and climbed to the highest place of the city tower.

"Hehe, at least a hundred medium-sized warships, and there are large and huge warships on the river in the distance. ”

A white-robed magician stood in front of Kong Cheng, and it was Dong Xun, the deputy head of the Southern Demon Branch.

He actually came to Dingjiang City, which shows that the Shaodian Army expects great changes here.

"The enemy should not have expected that this move is exactly what we wanted, and Kong Mou, on behalf of the whole army, would like to thank Master Dong for coming here. Kong Cheng thanked Dong Xun again.

There is a forbidden law that can stabilize the morale of the army, even in the face of the enemy's elite troops, the soldiers under the enemy ship are not panicked at all, this is the proof.

It wasn't long before another scout arrived, tens of thousands of enemy troops were coming from the southwest, and the defenders outside the city were rapidly retreating.

Kong Cheng ordered: "Notify Xining City immediately, and ask friendly troops to prepare for support." ”

"Huh?" Dong Xun looked up at the sky, "It's going to rain." ”

Sure enough, before the enemy could approach the city, the rain fell like hemp, and the fog on the river was dispersed.

"Hahaha, the sky is as people wish, the sky is as people wish!" Kong Cheng laughed, if he knew that something important had to be said three times, he would definitely shout "Heaven is as people wish" again.

The rainy weather is not conducive to the siege of the city, especially the siege of the navy, the attack power of the ranged troops will be weakened, and the pressure on the Kong army to defend the city will be much less.

"It's coming. Dong Xun squinted at the north.

Kong Cheng turned his head to look, but he couldn't see anything, and then raised his telescope, only then did he find a black spot in the upper reaches of the Tongyuan River.

Hua Song once again commanded the ship to go south, in addition to rescuing the Kong family's army, he also wanted to avenge the defeat of Yixue many times.

The naval forces of their own country stopped attacking the other shore and turned the bow of the ship to sail towards the center of the river, apparently knowing that the opponent on the water was coming.

At this time, thousands of sails stood upstream, thousands of flags fluttered, and countless warships went down the river.

The Shaodian Navy put on a pincer formation.

Smaller ships protrude forward on both sides.

The larger ships gathered in the middle, advancing in thick arrays.

"Hmph, you invaded our state with a national naval army before, and I was outnumbered and suffered many defeats. This time my allies have arrived, and it's time for me to outnumber. Hua Song raised his eyebrows this time, and wanted to clear the name of the general of the defeated army in one fell swoop.

In fact, what he said was a bit exaggerated, his country only let part of the navy cooperate with the Jiangzhou naval army to fight, and did not send the whole country's naval army.

There was also tension on the shore, and a big battle was about to break out.

A full 40,000 of their own troops drove to the foot of Dingjiang City, and nearly a thousand magicians flew in the air.

They attacked the city in two ways, all the way to the south gate and the west gate, looking at the posture to capture Dingjiang City in one go.

Originally, there was another way in Yudi's plan, that is, the navy, which was responsible for attacking the east gate.

The combined efforts of the three groups have an overwhelming advantage over the Kong family's army.

It's just that the plan can't catch up with the changes, just as Yu Di could predict that Dingjiang City would increase its defensive power, but he didn't expect the Nannuma Prefecture Navy to increase and rush to Dingjiang City.

Xining City.

"The enemy chose Dingjiang City, I thought they were coming back here. Hua Mo received a message from Dingjiang City.

"I've won! Hehe, talking counts, I'm going to fight this time. "Ma is happy to be gearing up, as if he has made a big profit.

"You!" Hua Song glared angrily.

"What am I, I have a note. Ma Zhi took out a note, raised it in front of Hua Mo, and quickly put it away.

Hua Mo's right hand moved, and finally couldn't help but grab it, "Hmph, haven't you learned to respect the old and respect the virtuous?"

"Next time, the next time the little brother will respect the elderly. Ma Zhi finished speaking and walked away.

These two made a bet, betting on which place their army would invade, Huamo betting on Xining City, and Ma Ju betting on Dingjiang City, and whoever won had the right to go out of the city to fight first.

In less than a stick of incense, the 76th Division was assembled, went out from the east gate, and went to Dingjiang City for rescue.

Nanqiu County,

"Is there any movement in the upper reaches of the Chunlu River?" Yu Di felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and always felt that Ding Kui's side was too calm.

During the armistice, people often came out to make shocks in Baiqiu Town, but now that the war has been restarted, Ding Kui has no reason to endure loneliness.

"Not yet, and even the flow of the river has not changed. Gong Yelei is in charge of the enemy situation on the southern front, "Why don't you send troops to fight Baiqiu Town?"

"Well, it works. The order was given to the North 22nd Division to tentatively attack Baiqiu Town. ”

Seeing that Ding Kui didn't come, Yu Di simply took the initiative to provoke him, which was a bit of a scareless taste.

The battle reports from the northern front came back one after another, and his face became more and more gloomy, "Hmph, the Shaodian National Water Army is just like a thundering frog, it will only be noisy and annoying." ”

"Lord Qiqi," a staff officer hurriedly came, "the enemy naval forces used new warships to ram our giant ships at a very fast speed, and then there was a violent explosion, and now five huge ships have been damaged. ”

"What?"

Yudi didn't expect the news on the northern front to be even more disturbing.

Gong Yelei couldn't help but shout: "A new warship that will explode? No, you don't know, the Shaodian Navy has this kind of ship." This time, the enemy army is prepared, do you know our plan?"

The chief of staff is well-informed, and he knows the origin of the new ship of the Shaodian Army as soon as he hears it.

"No way, only a few people know about our plan, and it won't be leaked. Ordered Shuizhai to immediately increase the number of troops, and the enemy naval army must be defeated. Yudi was in a hurry.

His plan was to capture Dingjiang City in a short period of time, and then look for the flaws in the Shaodian army to attack.

If you clench your fist and smash it out, you can't hit the stone, and if the stone doesn't break, your fist will be broken. For this reason, he deliberately chose Dingjiang City as the target of attack, that is, he liked that the Confucian army was weak and the naval army could help in the war.

Now that the attack of the naval army is blocked, and there is still the danger of being defeated, how can he not be in a hurry?

"Report! Traces of the enemy have been found outside the camp in the north of the county. ”

"It's coming!" Yudi perked up.

He is not afraid that the Shaodian army will make a big move, but he is afraid that there will be no movement, and the enemy hidden in the shadows is the most terrifying.

A magician battle broke out in the sky above Dingjiang Castle.

Dong Xun didn't come alone, he also brought some of the magicians who were transferred to the Twelve Legions, plus the original Kong Family's army, there are also nearly a thousand magicians in the city.

Xing Bao personally wrote a military order to Dong Xun, the fact that recruits cannot participate in the war does not mean that the legion cannot participate in the war, and the battle of the magician is equivalent to the battle of the Twelve Legions.

Ban Tu, who was hidden in the group of magicians, kicked the iron plate, but he didn't expect that the other party also had a forbidden law, and he was still the most suitable forbidden law for defending the city, and he was restrained to death.

It cannot be said that the earth system is the water system, but on a certain occasion, the siege and defense of the city are more obvious.

In the afternoon, the Shaodian Army appeared on the back of the attacking West Gate, and the 76th Division rushed to the west of Dingjiang City.

Ma Ju did not choose to go around to the north and enter the city, but directly attacked his own army and fought the enemy in the western suburbs.

The commander of his army will have to withdraw his troops to the west, and the troops and horses will be divided into two lines.

The 76th Division did not rashly attack its own army in the south, nor did it enter the city, but built a camp outside the west gate.
