Chapter 346: Planning a Surprise Attack
Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er rushed to Xiaolianshui City with the medicine slaves, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses led by Hexi Qinwangjun had approached twenty miles outside Xiaolianshui City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the battle in the camp at the western foot of Ganquan Mountain, two hundred miles to the south, is entering a white heat, but at this point, the reality of the Heiyan army can no longer be completely concealed, and it can still be supported at this time, it is the camp of the western foot camp that is layered on top of each other, not just a fortress, and the complex terrain of the mountains at the western foot restricts the development of the main force of the Xiyuan army and hundreds of thousands of Qinwang troops.
It's just that when the Xilu camp can resist and suddenly collapse, no one can predict.
The same is true, the morale of the soldiers and horses of the Qinwang army outside Lianshui City is extraordinarily strong, Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er galloped into Xiaolianshui City, and they could feel that the killing soldiers were as cold as knives, and they invaded the walled city.
In comparison, the morale of the generals in Xiaolianshui City was extremely low.
Ning Chan'er and the others couldn't perceive the existence of the killing army, but they could still feel the extremely oppressive atmosphere when they entered the city. Again, Ning Chan'er's divine sense extended out, sensing that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Breath in all directions around her seemed to be held down by an invisible giant hand, and with her Divine Soul cultivation, she could not shock or sense the Heaven and Earth Yuan Breath around her, and she could also guess how strong the morale of the enemy troops outside the city was.
Seeing Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er walking in, Huang Shuang, the main general of the northern foot camp who was in the big tent, became even more ugly.
Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er, as the guards of Qiushi Village, both returned to Xiaolianshui City, naturally they wanted to escape from the battle - at this time, the wind and rain were shaking, and the Heiyan Army Mansion was about to fall, as the personal disciples of the Great Heavenly Master, Ning Chan'er and Chen Hai (ugly slave) did not say that they were the first to break away from the defense line before the enemy army attacked, which is unreasonable.
Le Yi knew Chen Hai's true identity and knew that it was impossible for Chen Hai to coexist with Hei Yanjun, but his face was not good-looking.
"Senior Brother Huang, Senior Brother Le, the ugly slave has something to say. Chen Hai stepped forward and said in a deep voice, motioning for Huang Shuang and Le Yi to follow him and Ning Chan'er to the quiet room behind the council hall for a secret talk.
Although Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er said that they left Qiushi Village, they did not run away directly after all, but ran to Xiaolianshui City, which was not too ugly.
It's just that Huang Shuang thought that Chen Hai persuaded them to abandon the city and flee, so he reprimanded with a calm face: "Half a month ago, I didn't even know about your existence; ”
Chen Hai stared at Le Yi.
Le Yi also thought that Chen Hai was persuading them to abandon the city and flee, he didn't want to give Chen Hai a chance to speak, and said, "If you have anything to say, you can say it here." ”
Chen Hai looked around, except for the guards of Huang Shuang's side, they were all middle and high-level generals in the Northern Foot Battalion, and said, "Senior Brother Huang Shuang, do you think the situation is still possible to recover?"
"If you want to say this demagogic thing again, don't blame me for being ruthless in military law. Huang Shuang shouted angrily.
"I'm not here to persuade Senior Brother Huang Shuang, Senior Brother Le Yi, to abandon the city and flee, not to persuade you to be a villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death," Chen Hai said, "The purpose of the existence of the Xiaolianshui defense line is to cover the main force as much as possible and retreat to Songdu Mountain to regroup, but now we can't achieve this goal by holding on to Xiaolianshui City. Senior Brother Le Yi, you are willing to sacrifice for the Holy Sect, the only thing you can do at this time is to lead the elite of Xiaolianshui City to assault the southwest bank of Xiaolianshui River, to raid the camp of the Xiyuan Army in Guoziling, and burn its grain and grass, so as to force the Xiyuan Army to shrink into Jiyang, and win some time for the northern retreat of the Black Yan Army of Ganquan Mountain......"
Chen Hai's words were like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.
Huang Shuang and the others looked at each other, but they didn't expect Chen Hai to say such a thing.
Le Yi said in a deep voice: "Yes, the crown prince Yingdan and the British king Yingshu have a deep contradiction, it can be said that if it weren't for the momentum of my Holy Sect, they would have torn their faces and killed them like a river of blood." The grain and grass of the Xiyuan army were destroyed, and the first thing they had to consider was no longer to pursue and kill our army, but to worry about whether the Tiger Ben army led by the crown prince Yingdan and the Ning clan would take the opportunity to sneak attack them - this strategy was feasible. ”
Ning Chan'er couldn't wait to sacrifice the spirit sword and chop Chen Hai into seventeen or eighteen sections, she was counting on Chen Hai to persuade Le Yi and Huang Shuang to abandon the city and escape, but she didn't expect Chen Haier to run over and persuade Huang Shuang and Le Yi to go to death together.
Huang Shuang and Le Yi decided to lead the elite to raid the camp of the West Garden Army in Guoziling, and they had no way to run away after patting their butts, and they were bound to be accompanied by the army to raid Guoziling.
Chen Hai's plan is simple to say, but if you really want to do it, you will definitely die. At this time, along the Xiaolianshui River, there were hundreds of thousands of elite Qinwang troops gathered, how did they pass through the blockade line of these hundreds of thousands of Qinwang troops.
Moreover, the West Garden Army said that the main force poured out of the nest, but Guoziling could not have a little defensive combat power, how many soldiers and horses did they have to lead before they could surprise and force the Guoziling camp of the West Garden Army?
Even if they burned the camp of the Xiyuan Army in Guoziling, burned the grain and grass, and forced the Xiyuan Army to shrink into Jiyang County, wouldn't they just be in the big net of the Xiyuan Army and Zhulu Qinwang's army shrinking into Jiyang County?
At that time, the British King hated them to the bone, hundreds of thousands of elite iron horsemen, Ming Realm, and Dao Dan Realm powerhouses were countless, and they were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of elite armies, how could they escape and ascend to heaven?
Ning Chan'er didn't want to see the Black Yan Army annihilated, but she didn't think that she would have to pay for it, so she glared at Chen Hai softly, thinking that she could only wait and see the situation on the way to the raid to see how to get out.
"Yes, in order to control the Qinwang army of Zhulu, the grain and grass transported from Yanjing are all concentrated in Guoziling first, as long as the grain and grass accumulated in Guoziling can be destroyed, not only the Xiyuan army will throw a mouse, but even the Qinwang army in Hexi and other counties will lose the ability to pursue long-distance with limited grain storage in their hands," Huang Shuang looked at Chen Hai with a look of resolute determination in his pupils, looked around at the left and right generals in the council hall, and asked, "Who wants to go with me?"
All the generals knew that they would die for a lifetime, but there were still more than a dozen people and Le Yi who stood up and were willing to lead Huang Shuang all the way to the elite, cross the Xiaolianshui River, and raid the Guoziling camp of the Xiyuan Army.
"Okay, Xiaolianshui City still needs someone to stay and defend......" Le Yi didn't expect all the generals to go with them to this difficulty, the middle and high-level generals could have a third of them stand up, which was quite surprising to him, and at the same time, of course, there were also generals who needed to stay and lead the army to contain most of the Qinwang soldiers and horses, so that they could quickly arrange their pursuers and attack Guoziling after crossing the Xiaolianshui River.
Chen Hai saw that the dozen or so generals who stood up were not so much going to death as if they heard the news of the death of the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing had already bred despair.
Of course, under the current situation, the sentry horses and war birds of the Xiyuan Army and the Qinwang Army are all over the two or three hundred miles west of Ganquan Mountain, and it can be said that there are two or three hundred miles along the Xiaolianshui River, even if there is a mouse crossing the river, it may be discovered. And in the front of Xiaolianshui City, more than 20 miles away, there are still more than 100,000 elite Qinwang troops mainly cavalry staring there, here 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry out of the city, how can a Dao Dan realm powerhouse like Dong Shou not be aware of it.
It is impossible to quietly cross the small Lianshui River.
The raiding soldiers and horses that crossed the Xiaolianshui River should also be divided into two routes, one positive and one strange.
The Zheng concentrated the only 30,000 cavalry in Xiaolianshui City, crossed the Xiaolianshui River from the gap on the north side, and raided the camp of the Qinwang Army in Hexi at the Stone Rat Ridge on the west bank of the Xiaolianshui River, attracting the vision of a part of the Qinwang Army at the northwest foot of Ganquan Mountain, and at the same time tearing apart the reconnaissance and monitoring network composed of sentinel horses and spirit birds of the Xiyuan Army and the Qinwang Army.
The real wonder soldiers, the number of people should not be large, and they need to be controlled at about 3,000 people, so that it is possible not to be found before arriving at Guoziling, but the combat power of these 3,000 strange soldiers must also be strong enough to suddenly tear through the defense of the Guoziling camp and ensure that the grain and grass of the Xiyuan Army can be burned before they are annihilated.
After another day of fierce fighting, the camps on the periphery of the Xilu camp were all broken by the Xiyuan army, and after a large number of defensive seals of the Heiyan army were consumed, the power of the intensive use of war birds and heavenly chariots became more and more powerful, and the Xilu camp was in danger.
The climate was disturbed by the breath of heaven and earth, a heavy snow, a heavy rain, but in an instant it was frozen tightly, and the thunder shook in the cold winter, reflecting the sword qi vertically and horizontally, as if the heavens and the earth were going to crack.
The army of the three Qinwang was divided into three directions, southwest, and northwest, and approached Xiaolianshui City, and standing on the city wall, you could hear the whistling sound of the large group of green cunning horses.
There are 80,000 defenders in Xiaolianshui City, even if they cast a spell, a thick fog rises up, wrapping the entire Xiaolianshui City, but it is impossible for 30,000 cavalry to quietly get out of the city.
Although the powerhouse of the Dao Dan Realm could not vibrate or sense the Heaven and Earth Yuan Breath at this time, his divine sense extended out, and he could still perceive the subtle movements within a radius of twenty or thirty miles.
Therefore, 30,000 cavalry went out of the city from the north gate of Xiaolianshui City, and 30,000 elite cavalry on the opposite bank moved north in parallel.
Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er did not need to command the troops and horses, so they could observe the movements of the Qinwang army from a closer distance, and it was precisely the main force of the Qinwang army in Hexi led by Dong Shou who was moving north parallel to the 30,000 cavalry here.
In his early years, Dong Shou was ordered to lead his troops to reinforce Yanjing, and transferred 20,000 elites from the Yulong battalion, and then successively transferred elites from Hexi within three years, increasing the strength of Hexi Qinwang's army to 40,000.
These 40,000 horses are mainly cavalry, among which there are as many as 6,000 elite Dao soldiers who have cultivated as disciples in the middle and late stages of the Xuan Realm and used green cunning horses as war horses, and they are also the fundamental combat power of Qin Muhou Dong Shouyizhi's foothold within the Dong clan, plus the other soldiers and horses are the elite children of the Du clan, the Chai clan, the Jiang clan and other clans, and the combat power is so strong that it can be said that it is far above the 30,000 cavalry of the Heiyan Army out of Xiaolianshui City.
The only thing that can be gratifying is that Hexi is preparing to use troops against Hechuan, whether it is from Liquan or the craftsman battalion under the jurisdiction of the Hexi Metropolitan Guard's General's Mansion, the crossbows, chariots and a large number of strong war birds are all given priority to ensure the needs of soldiers and horses in Hexi.
Fortunately, Dong Shou was violent and suspicious by nature, and did not dare to suddenly cross the Xiaolianshui River and launch a surprise attack on this side.
