Chapter 174: The two armies clash
The general was pulled out and beaten with twenty military staffs, and Fan Lingyue walked to the map of the army, looked at the place where the army was now, and fell into deep thought. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few days ago, the forbidden army of Great Xia continued to intercept, but the response in the past two days has become slower and slower.
She is sure that in the land of the plains, the Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry will definitely not be afraid of anyone, and the Great Xia Jingwu Gong should not choose to fight the Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry head-on in the plains.
The Great Xia Forbidden Army was tightened before and loosened later, obviously trying to lengthen the distance of the Northern Mongolian army, as for the intention, it was nothing more than to divide and annihilate it, or burn the grain and grass in the army.
The distance of one hundred and twenty miles is not enough for the Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry to reach the dust, and the time is not enough, and the possibility of starting a war is not large, then, the purpose is obvious.
Thinking of this, Fan Lingyue said in a deep voice, "Love is worry-free"
"In" walked into the tent and said respectfully.
"You immediately bring seven thousand light horses over, Great Xia may be paying attention to the grain and grass," Fan Lingyue said with a solemn expression.
"Yes" took the order without worry, and turned around to leave the account.
Leaving without worry, Fan Lingyue stared at the map in front of her and continued to ponder.
The grain and grass in Beimeng are quite sufficient, the Central Plains is rich, and the previous cities have a large number of official warehouse reserves, and their grain and grass are escorted in batches, and the garrison is very strict.
In fact, no matter at any time, grain and grass are the key to war, and this move of Great Xia is not surprising.
However, Daxia Jingwu Gong is a person who uses more soldiers than strange, and this kind of strategy is not like his style.
Fan Lingyue thought of a person, a lifelong opponent.
He and she are the people who know each other best in the world, but unfortunately, they are destined to become rivals.
Fan Lingyue came out of the tent, stood quietly in front of the tent, looking at the scenery of Great Xia, his eyes were firm, in a few months, this prosperous land will no longer belong to Great Xia.
The soldiers of Beimeng, seeing the beautiful shadow in front of the tent, no one dared to go up to disturb them.
The night gradually passed, and at the dawn of the day, a soldier hurried on horseback, and after dismounting, he quickly knelt down and said urgently, "Tell the military division, the Xia army attacked our army's grain transportation team, and two percent of the grain and grass were destroyed, and General Qing sent his subordinates to deliver the letter."
"Got it, let's go down," Fan Lingyue said lightly.
"Yes," the soldier withdrew, and hurried away.
Fan Lingyue's expression was the same as before, there was no change, since he had expected it, there was nothing to be surprised.
The so-called three armies have not moved, grain and grass go first, and destroying the enemy's grain routes or grain teams is indeed a good method.
This march of Northern Mongolia was different from the past, and the grain and grass were escorted in batches, just to prevent this move in Great Xia.
Twenty percent of the grain and grass is not much, so it is worth it to verify the purpose of Great Xia.
When the army was about to pull out of the camp, he hurried back and reported the situation in detail.
After hearing this, Fan Lingyue asked, "How long will it take for the wheat grain in the north to be harvested?"
"In the next three or five days," replied Carefree.
Fan Lingyue nodded, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said softly, "Tighten your precautions in the next few days, Daxia will come over to collect grain and grass."
"Why?" asked him in confusion.
Their vigilance of grain and grass will only become more and more stringent, and even if the sneak attack of Great Xia is successful, it will pay a lot of price, and there is really no need for this.
"They forced us to change our course again," Fan Lingyue said calmly.
Qing Wuwu didn't understand, and Fan Lingyue didn't explain again, just ordered to do it.
She was now almost certain that the person behind this plan was Ning Chen.
The plan ahead is very good, to disrupt the formation of Beimeng with repeated encirclement and suppression, and then, waiting for the opportunity to sneak attack Beimeng's grain and grass.
The first sneak attack, she didn't have time to notice, and it was also the only flaw in Beimeng, but unfortunately, the last step of Daxia was not good enough, and only destroyed two percent of their grain and grass.
The grain and grass in Northern Mongolia are much more abundant than Daxia imagined, and the loss of 20% is nothing.
It's a pity that if the grain and grass in Beimeng are not so sufficient, the loss of grain and grass this time may really force her to change her route.
The wheat grain in the north is ripe, and it is harvest time, and if she wants to gather grain, there are only two paths she can choose.
In the southwest, due to the limitation of land, the wheat grain was planted more and more scattered, and when the army collected, it was too troublesome and the gains outweighed the losses.
The wheat grains due south and southeast are densely planted, and it is easy to collect enough grain and grass to need.
In two directions, Daxia only needs to block one side, and the rest of the directions are not up to her.
The real problem lies in the fate of the grain and grass after harvesting in Beimeng.
Great Xia must have blocked due south, forcing them to go south along the southwest road.
It doesn't seem to be much now, but the southwest direction they are walking in is actually in the northwest of Great Xia.
The further south the road to the northwest, the more mountainous and hilly it became, and at any time of the day, this was the terrain that the cavalry would never want to encounter.
The idea is very good, and the vision is very far, however, there are always changes in the plan, Ning Chen is not in the army, and he can do nothing about the changes at this moment, there is never a perfect plan in the world, and any tricks and tricks need to be repaired in time.
Jingwu Gong of Great Xia, the arrangement of troops is a good talent, and the conspiracy and calculation are still inferior.
Now that Da Xia has made a move, it is up to her to respond.
In the Great Xia Forbidden Military Camp, Jingwu Gong sat in the tent, and the six generals below sat on both sides, discussing the future war.
Now the 160,000 forbidden army, divided into two steps, together to block the Northern Mongolian army, the other side led by the bloody marquis, has made a detour to the south in advance to block the way to Northern Mongolia again.
Jingwu Gong listened to the opinions of the generals, his brows were tightly locked, their current position was in the plain area, and it was really unwise to deal with the Northern Mongolian Iron Cavalry.
Although the Great Xia Forbidden Army is the elite of the elite, it still has little chance of winning against the Northern Mongolian iron cavalry like a torrent of iron on the plain.
Northern Mongolia has no reinforcements and is unwilling to fight hard, and Daxia has lost too much, and it can't be defeated again.
The current situation is still dominated by Northern Mongolia, and the only combat power that can compete with Northern Mongolia head-on is the 160,000 forbidden army, but they can't grasp the marching route of Northern Mongolia, and their interception is too passive.
Zhiming Hou provided a good way, however, it was very difficult to execute, this first surprise attack, although the harvest was not small, the loss was also not small, the reaction speed of the Northern Mongolian army was very fast, and there were iron cavalry echoes, which was much more difficult to deal with than previously expected.
The first surprise attack could not be said to be a success or a failure, it can only be said that the result was not ideal.
"Gong, do you want to continue to send troops to intercept the grain transportation team in Northern Mongolia?" asked a Qingjia general below.
"Go on, but be careful, Beimeng should have set up an ambush," Jingwu Gong reminded.
"The last general understands," General Qingjia hugged his fists.
In the southern Xinjiang of Great Xia, a beautiful and lovely girl walked on the street, asking for directions as she walked.
"Uncle, how do you get to Taiyue City?"
The girl looked very likable and had a good attitude, and the old man who was asked for directions pointed enthusiastically, and then asked, "The girl is not from Great Xia, is she?"
"Uncle, how do you know?" asked Ah Man strangely.
"Hehe, the girl's dress is very unfamiliar, not like the customs of Great Xia," the old man laughed.
"Oh" Aman looked at herself, she didn't pay much attention.
"Is this the first time the girl has come to southern Xinjiang?" the old man asked.
"No, I've been here before," Man shook his head.
The old man smiled and persuaded, "Girl, since you have come to southern Xinjiang, it is best to change your clothes, it will save you a lot of trouble."
Aman nodded thoughtfully, but she didn't have any trouble.
Ah Man didn't know that any trouble she encountered, and before the trouble could be found, it was solved by someone who was secretly following.
Otherwise, whose beautiful girl can wander on the street unharmed for so many days, and when she has no money, she will pick up silver for no reason.
Picking it up once is luck, picking it up twice is luck, and picking it up three times should always be suspicious.
Half a day later, Ah Man changed out of the clothes he wore in the palace, even took off the bits and pieces of headdress on his head, simply put on an emerald skirt, and began to walk again, asking for directions.
"Auntie, how do you get to Taiyue City?"
"What a peugeot girl," said the old woman with a smile.
"Thank you, Auntie, for the compliment, how do you get to Taiyue City?" Aman continued.
"Why did the girl come out alone, and what about the family?" the old woman asked, taking Ah Man's little hand and touching it.
"I came out to find someone, and I sneaked out, how can I get to Taiyue City?" asked Ah Man with perseverance.
"Come on, girl, Auntie's house is next to you, go and sit, it's not too late to take a sip of tea and hurry" The old woman was overjoyed when she saw the hunt, and enthusiastically dragged Ah Man to the alley.
Ah Man felt a little thirsty, so he obediently followed forward.
She didn't know that there was an alley called Yanjie Willow Lane, and there was an aunt called the old bustard.
The head of the guard who followed secretly was straight, and the little princess didn't feel that something was wrong?
The old woman's makeup was not even recognizable to her mother, and she knew at a glance that it was not a good family.
Unfortunately, Ah Man didn't feel it, because she had never seen any smoke street and willow lane, let alone what an old bustard was.
In the past, there was a barbarian king to protect him, and even the barbarian palace rarely came out, and he didn't know anything about the outside world.
Later, she secretly ran out with Ning Chen, but she came into contact with a lot of things, but those were all things that Ning Chen was willing to let her see.
"Come, girl, take a sip of tea," the old woman poured a cup of tea and handed it over, smiling like a broken flower.
"Thank you, Auntie," Aman took the tea and said politely.
"Is the person the girl is looking for?" asked the old woman as she sat down, poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and asked.
"I don't know," Man shook his head.
"What is the name of the girl she is looking for?" said the old woman, in a roundabout way.
"His name is Ning Chen" Ah Man replied, after speaking, he thought about it, and continued uncertainly, "It seems to be the confidant of Great Xia."
"Poof"
Hearing this, the tea that the old woman had not swallowed suddenly squirted out.
