Chapter 153: Don't Count on Reinforcements
Detian's army was like a rainbow, and before reaching Kaichuan City, the guards of several small towns along the way abandoned the town and fled after hearing the news, except for a small sneak attack, basically no large-scale battles were fought.
Kaichuan is a plain terrain, according to the Tanmalai newspaper, the army stationed here is led by Yu Chengzong, the captain of Wanli State, with a total strength of about 100,000. Except for the cavalry of the 5,000 Chinese Army of Taiwei Mansion, most of the rest are the divisions of King Qin who went to Beijing from all over Wanli. In addition, the 30,000 troops that Lin Lu withdrew were also added later, and Han Mengyu also had 10,000 troops, but according to reports, these 10,000 troops were only stationed and did not listen to Wanli's dispatch. So now Kaichuan's army has reached 110,000. This Yu Chengzong is a figure that Si Yulin knew when he was in command of the Detian Army, he is over seventy years old, and he is the elder of the three dynasties of the Wanli Kingdom, and most of the generals of the Wanli Kingdom have served as soldiers under him. It can be said that he is a grandmaster-level veteran general in Wanli's ** matter. But it is precisely because of its great influence in the Wanli **** world, coupled with the fact that it is straightforward, more than once with Xiandao on the top of the court, and it is strongly opposed to Wanli's invasion of Detian's plan. Therefore, Hamdao scattered him and sent him to Kaichuan City. And Wanli Kingdom was defeated again and again in this battle, and it was actually defeated to Kaichuan City, which was guarded by Yu Chengzong, and if it was defeated again, it was on the verge of losing the country, and it had to be reused for Chengzong. The order given by Hamdao to Yu Chengzong was to defend Kaicheon and wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Iwakuni.
Si Yulin, Li Shu, and Mingyun rode out of the camp to observe Yu Chengzong's fortifications on a small hill, and couldn't help but admire, sure enough, Jiang was old and spicy. Although the subordinates are all temporary miscellaneous troops, but from the camp and the deployment situation, it is completely in line with the style of a veteran, the barracks are scattered, a temporary wooden wall is enclosed around the camp, there is a ditch before the wooden wall, and the horses are still scattered outside the ditch, and the carts and watchtowers behind the wooden wall are faintly seen.
Si Yulin grimaced, turned his head to face Li Shu, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, it seems that Yu Chengzong is planning to defend to the death, to buy time for Wanli Kingdom to organize a new army." ”
Li Shu still set his eyes on the city defense of Kaichuan City, and said slowly: "Wanli is a big country and a strong country, and the reason why it will be defeated again and again is mainly the fault of the leading generals. The advantage of our army is that the offensive is fierce and as urgent as wind and thunder, which makes Wanli Guo at a loss and unable to organize for a while. If you are so consumed with Yu Chengzong, it will not be a blessing for our army...... Our army is deep into the enemy's territory, the supply line is very long, and the Pan army is eyeing the tiger in the wilderness, as long as our army misses, I am afraid that we will immediately send troops. ”
Si Yulin didn't say anything for a while, this was their biggest worry, and after a while, Si Yulin continued: "So we must quickly clear Yu Chengzong's army and approach the capital of Wanli. In this way, our army forced the surrender of Wanli Kingdom and eliminated the threat of invasion by the Pan army in the west. ”
Li slashed "um".
Shenyun frowned and interjected: "I'm afraid that our army will have to pay a great price, this Yu Chengzong is not easy to match." ”
Si Yulin and Li Qi stopped talking, and raised their eyes to look at the walls and tents of Kaichuan City.
"And ......," Stygian's words slurred a little, hesitating whether to tell or not, "I found an unclear piece of information,"
Si Yulin raised his eyebrows on the side, if this kid didn't have very accurate information, he would generally not tell him in vain, so he couldn't help but reveal the unclear information, the problem here must be quite strict.
"There are reinforcements in Iwa, it seems to be ......!"
Reinforcements?
It's not surprising that Panguo sent reinforcements, and Han Mengyu's aid to Wan was a foreshadowing. Looking at the appearance of the dark clouds wanting to talk and resting, could it be that this reinforcement is extremely vast?
"It is reported that there seems to be only one ...... reinforcements."
