Chapter 767: Enemy Secrets

Mobile reading

That is to say, the current enemy has not yet figured out the situation of our army. Pinshu.com Yue Jinyan thought of this and hurriedly asked, "How many enemies are there?" The adjutant general recalled and said, "From the discussion of the enemy, I learned that they originally had 150,000 soldiers, but in the first two cities, some soldiers were consumed and some were sent to stay to defend the city, and it is estimated that there are only about 100,000. ”

Yue Jinyan listened to the words of the deputy general, and his heart was shocked, as early as the afternoon, he guessed that there were about seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses in the camp he was looking at, but he didn't expect that there were more than he guessed. Then this battle will be even more difficult to fight. Moreover, excluding those who are unwell because of the hurry, there are only about 50,000 people in the city who are healthy enough to fight.

And there are twice as many enemies as there are on this side. Thinking of this, Yue Jinyan was even more thoughtless, you said that if he let him do business, he must have no problem. But for leading troops to fight, Yue Jinyan was still a little tender.

Yue Jinyan looked at the adjutant general and told him to take a good rest, then turned around and asked the opinion of the Lord Shoucheng.

Although the Lord Shoucheng looked down on Yue Jinyan and Huangkou Xiao'er leading the troops to fight before, if Yue Jinyan didn't ask himself about this matter, he really wouldn't let him go to the battlefield, but at this time, Yue Jinyan had already asked himself. proves that Yue Jinyan will not be arrogant. The Lord Shoucheng looked at Yue Jinyan's gaze with a little more appreciation.

Yue Jinyan didn't care. The Lord Defender of the Castle said what he thought, and he will fight tomorrow after repairing it. As soon as the lord of the castle guard finished speaking, the lieutenant general said as if he remembered something, "The enemy is preparing to take the city tomorrow, and it is too late to repair it." When the Lord Shoucheng heard what the lieutenant general said, his brows furrowed.

Yue Jinyan walked to the simulated battlefield and looked at the confrontation between the two sides, now that there are many enemies and we are outnumbered, if it is a hard fight, it will definitely not work. The Lord Defender looked at the injured lieutenant general and couldn't help but think, since the enemy will invade tomorrow, why don't we sneak attack in the middle of the night? The Lord Shoucheng thought of this, and said to Yue Jinyan.

In fact, as early as when the Lord Shoucheng set his eyes on the deputy general, Yue Jinyan had already thought of it, and nodded his head by default, so he ordered the Lord Shoucheng to pick a hundred soldiers who were good at fighting for himself. When the third watch is over, take the soldiers out of the city, and then the city keeper can take the rest of the soldiers to answer in the city.

The Lord Shoucheng was extremely satisfied with Yue Jinyan's arrangement, and it was good to try how many taels Yue Jinyan had. But in Yue Jinyan's thoughts, he simply wanted to delay the time first, so that he could buy more time to take a countermeasure. After the city defender went down, Yue Jinyan was also making preparations, and he could see the terrain outside the city clearly from the simulated battlefield. And what I have to do now is to familiarize myself with these terrains, and only in the middle of the night can the sneak attack be successful.

Just after the third watch, Yue Jinyan took the soldiers who had already been selected to leave in batches, and a group of ten people entered the enemy's camped camp from all directions.

Yue Jinyan cautiously evaded the enemy's reconnaissance, and then lit a fire in the enemy's grain depot, and then ran away with the people. The same is true for soldiers in several other directions.

When the enemy saw that the good military rations would catch fire, it must have been the work of those Central Plains talents. The enemy will lead the way and drop things. He ordered the men to settle down how much grain and grass had been lost, and how much grain and grass was left to eat for a few days. And Yue Jinyan looked at the soldiers who had all returned safely, and the soldiers were overjoyed when they learned that their sneak attack was successful, and their momentum was much stronger than during the day.

Yue Jinyan was not overly happy, he still frowned, this sneak attack was a win, but we still have two cities in the hands of the enemy. Yue Jinyan said to the soldiers, "Have a good rest, there is still a battle to fight tomorrow, and you can only be happy after driving the enemy back to your hometown." ”

Yue Jinyan returned to his room and thought about what to do next after the sneak attack, a savage and rough person like the enemy would definitely be furious when he was sneak attacked, and if he sent troops at that time, he was afraid that he would not be able to win. Yue Jinyan thought that the sturdy young people in the city now had a lot of seniority, and he might be able to persuade them to join the army.

Thinking of this, Yue Jinyan asked the people below to order to go to recruit troops early tomorrow morning, and recruit troops in the nearby city.

Although he himself knew that it was unrealistic to recruit troops on the spot, and even if they did, they would not be able to recruit much, and at least they would increase some troops. But it is also necessary to do so, and the aim is to get healthy young men in the city to join in the protection of their country.

Next, we have to think carefully about how to fight this battle, and the war is nothing more than the right time, place and people, since the time has not yet been expected. But this location can still be used well, Yue Jinyan thought about it so far, now we are in the city, the enemy is outside the city, if we really fight our army can still retreat to the city, we can fight with the enemy.

On the enemy's side, in addition to advancing our army, the retreat is open space. Thinking of this, Yue Jinyan was shocked, but he was thoughtful for an instant.

Since the enemy's retreat is an open space, then our army can use this to encircle the enemy. However, the number of our troops is not as large as the enemy's number, and it is not easy to encircle it.

Yue Jinyan thought of this, and once again picked up the topography map of the city that the Lord Guarding the City had given him to study. Although the city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is no natural danger now, and it is too late to deploy it.

If the enemy is put in order tomorrow, he will come to give our army a blow, our army will definitely suffer, Yue Jinyan looked at the only reservoir on the terrain map in the city, and saw that it would not rain in the past few days, how to make use of this location, where are our advantages, Yue Jinyan frowned and kept walking.

Suddenly, Yue Jinyan had a flash of inspiration, and it was not uncommon for him to win more with less in history. I often see in my books that many armies have defeated battles that were supposed to be lost with one enemy and one hundred. Now our advantage lies in a strange word, and the enemy does not yet know the number of our reinforcements, and if we use this to bluff, we may have a different harvest. But how do you highlight this strange word?

In the afternoon of the next day, the people who had brought people to conscript came back to report that less than 20,000 had been recruited on the spot, and that less than 15,000 had been recruited. After hearing this, Yue Jinyan sighed and waved his hand to let them go down, which was what he expected. Yue Jinyan thought for a while, and secretly had an idea in his heart.

Yue Jinyan went to patrol the camp outside the city, and calculated in his heart, there are only a little more than 60,000 people on his side, as the saying goes, five times the number of troops can attack the city, but the enemy only has 150,000 people, but let the army spies tell them that it is more than 300,000, and the enemy officially used this to create a "momentum", at best, there are only more than 100,000 people, if there is no five times the number of soldiers, it is not easy to win this siege battle.

The enemy also knew that he could take the first two cities faster because he was caught off guard by our army.

That's why they won.
