CHAPTER XXV

--- Year of the Rooster is coming! Xiao Yu wishes you all: happiness and good health! Family reunion! Happy New Year! The money is rolling in! Good luck in the Year of the Rooster! Whatever you want! ---

A month later, he entered the Holy City.

"Crazy Saga died. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Qingying said as she opened her mouth and looked up at the people in the room in astonishment.

When Nangong Hong and Qi Ziming heard this, they looked at each other, looked at each other and didn't speak, obviously they didn't expect this to happen.

"What else did my cousin say?" Huangfu Qianchong asked.

Qingying pursed the corners of his mouth, calmed down and continued to look at the letter in his hand, "Senior brother said, the mad army is now temporarily commanded by Crazy Lan. Tianyou's various strongholds were extremely well defended, but he didn't see the slightest intention of fighting, and he guessed that it was the death of Crazy Sa, which had an impact on them, so he temporarily suspended his troops. Senior brother said that there is no need to worry about the eastern army, let us concentrate on the westward expedition."

Huangfu Qianchong nodded and suddenly stood up, he paced back and forth in the room, thought for a long time, turned his head to look at the two marshals and Qingying and asked, "What do you think, how about we take advantage of this time to attack Tianyou?" ”

Nangong Hong didn't have to think about it before he intuitively said, "No! The mourning soldiers will win, not to mention that although the other party has no will to fight, it is in a state of strict defense, so it is better not to act rashly for the time being. ”

Qi Ziming took over the words and agreed, "Yes! Moreover, if the army is withdrawn here, it will give Yan Yan a chance. ”

Huangfu Qianchong nodded, and actually agreed in his heart, but they had taken too long to enter the Holy City, and they had made no progress at all.

In fact, he didn't really want to fight the mad army in his heart, after all, the current marshal of the mad army was Langlan and Kongyu. Not to mention Kongyu's friendship with them, he was more worried about Qingying's mood.

Huangfu Qianchong glanced up at Qingying thinking about it, and saw that her expression didn't seem to have changed, and she was still thinking about something seriously.

"Qingying? Do you have any ideas? Huangfu Qianchong asked.

Qingying came back to his senses, saw that the three of them were looking at him, and smiled lightly, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking, if you want to divide your forces to attack Tianyou, is there any way to keep the capital side from being affected." ”

Huangfu Qianchong was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he was surprised in his heart, Qingying would actually want to fight with Tianyou?

Qingying looked up just in time to see his expression, and pursed the corners of his mouth shallowly, giving him a reassuring look.

In fact, she said in her heart that it was impossible not to contradict. Kong Yu is his most important friend after all!

Now, if she is immediately allowed to fight against Kongyu, I'm afraid I will still resist, right? But what can they do if they are in different positions?

The war is definitely going to be fought. It's been so long, and she's been prepared for a long time, if it really comes to the moment when she has to face it, she won't run away, and she doesn't want Kongyu to escape.

Everything in the world can only stand by breaking, and only by fighting can the war be stopped.

Their hearts all wish for peace, but if war is the way to bring peace, then war!

Qingying sighed and said helplessly, "After all, we haven't made much progress here, it's not a way to spend so much, even with Jinlong's support, it's not the best strategy to drag it out for a long time, not to mention that if it drags on like this, I'm afraid it will affect the morale of the army......" she said and shook her head, "And Chi Yan's side doesn't know what the situation is......"

Before Qingying's words fell, Feng Luochen walked in, and as he walked, he said, "Your Highness, there's a letter from Chi Yan!" ”

The four people in the room immediately came to their senses, and Huangfu Qianchong glanced at Qingying, and Qingying hurriedly followed and took a closer look.

"How?" Huangfu Qianchong asked eagerly.

"It's a handwritten letter from Marshal Mandelk, who is now attacking and defending anxiously, asking me if I have any way to support."

Huangfu Qianchong's face immediately sank when he heard this, "Support? Do you want to divide your troops? We're going to have an impact, right? "They were still discussing this issue just now, and they were already worried that they would let Yan Yan take advantage of the loophole. However, if you don't support it, it's always not good. After all, Tianyou's side is also Chi Yan has been restraining him, allowing Liuyu to take a breath, and this is the current situation.

Huangfu Qianchong was conflicted and a little embarrassed.

"No, maybe it's a turning point!" Qingying thought for a while, then suddenly raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Maybe this will break the current deadlock!" ”

"How?" Nangong Hong asked.

Qingying nodded, "Go the other way!" ”

"Qingying, if you have any ideas, just say it! Don't sell it? Huangfu Qianchong waved his hand, impatient.

Qingying smiled, walked to the topographical sand table in the room, picked up the flag at the foot of the table and placed it in the palm of his hand, and then carefully looked at the positions of the various forces in the sand table, and thought about it again before slowly saying-

"At present, if there is no mistake or omission in the information we are investigating, Yan Yan's troop deployment at this time is like this. There are about 150,000 people in the valley mouth, 100,000 people in the capital, and the rest of the towns have their own distributions, but as the purpose of defending the city, it will not affect the layout of the capital. There is also the strength of the army at the junction of Pojun Mountain with Chi Yan, about 200,000, and 30,000 people out of the valley pass. ”

She paused as she spoke, and then said, "And on our side, except for the defenders who stayed behind to guard the Falling Cloud Canyon, the Kauer Valley, and the towns along the way. At present, there are 70,000 troops on the periphery of the capital and 130,000 on the periphery of the city. There were about 350,000 people on Chiyan's side. And out of the valley pass line, we did not send troops. ”

After Qingying finished speaking, he looked up at everyone and came to a conclusion, "In terms of troops, on the side of Pojun Mountain, Chi Yan fought against Yan Yan's 200,000 army with 350,000 people, because Yan Yan occupies a favorable position, so in general, the two sides are actually evenly matched.

On the side of the valley mouth, our 130,000 army is against its 150,000, and when we enter the capital, it is 70,000 against 100,000, which is slightly less in number and does not have an advantage in geography, so on the side of the capital, it is indeed Yan Yan who has a slight advantage. If we're going to send troops to help, that's all there is here. ”

Feng Luochen became even more confused after hearing this, "In this case, if we divide our troops to support Chi Yan, the capital will be even more down, doesn't it just give Yan Yan a chance?" In this way, let alone take back the capital, right? ”

"Falling dust, listen to Qingying first." Huangfu Qianchong smiled and shook his head.

Feng Luochen realized that he was too anxious, and couldn't help touching his nose.

Qingying pursed the corners of her mouth shallowly, and continued, "At first glance, this is indeed the case, but there is a flaw in Yan Yan's troop layout!" And this gap is also where we have not sent troops now -- out of the valley pass. ”

"Our original plan was to take the capital, and then go north to attack Guguan and join forces with Chiyan. In addition, the capital is very important to the people of Liuyu, so we have a strong belief in winning the capital. The Yan people also know this, so they will send heavy troops to defend here, as long as they hold the capital, the blow to Liuyu's military heart is very big. They calculated that we must take the capital first, so they didn't arrange too many manpower at the Valley Pass.

If we transfer our troops, go the opposite way, and directly divide our troops to attack out of Guguan, then Yanyan's layout will be disrupted by us.

Because Yan Yan has insufficient defenders at the Guguan Pass, as long as we divide more than 60,000 troops and go straight to the Guguan, they will definitely send reinforcements. And the troops they can deploy are only the troops on the front line of the capital.

Therefore, when we sent troops to support, Yan Yan also had to transfer troops to block it, and as a result, there was no change for the line in the capital. In other words, our division of troops to support Yan Yan will not affect us.

Of course, that's true, but when I say 'do the opposite', I mean something else......"
