Li Cunqiao bowed his head and said, "Not bad. Today's forces are strong and we are weak. The Khitan army of 500,000 people. Even if it's filled with human lives. It can also pile up a broad avenue that goes directly to the wall of Yanjing City. If the prince blindly besieges Yanjing. Sooner or later, this city will become a prison for the king."

Duan Mingyu intersected his fists." Smack. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Yanjing can't help but fight. Fight and fail. Storage. Do you have any ideas?"

Li Cunqiao said: "To solve this problem. Then there's only one way. Yanjing must attack. But the prince can't go with all his might."

Duan Mingyu was stunned. Think for a moment. Tentatively, he said, "The meaning of the deposit is that the soldiers are divided into two ways. This ....... with the strength of my hands...... If the army is divided again. I'm afraid ......."

Li Cunqiao said: "I know. In this way. What a great pressure our army is under. That would be an uphill battle. A bitter war. But...... It has to be. The main army of the prince must not be consumed by attacking the city. As everyone knows. The cost of siege is too large. 100,000 defenders of Yanjing. Even if we go with all our might, we won't be able to attack it. Once you can't attack it. At that time, the Khitan reinforcements will attack me. And what to resist. Take 10,000 steps back. Even if we lay down Yanjing. How many main forces are left. The remaining 500,000 Khitans are on the near side. Even if we take it, will we be able to hold it? I'm afraid it's changed hands in an instant."

Li Cunqiao arched his hand. The siege will be tough. But this burden. The prince must hand it over. The plan is in the people. Success is in the sky. Rajah. There is no panacea. There is no foolproof plan to take advantage of the situation and not suffer losses."

Duan Mingyu lowered his head and pondered for a moment. The muscles on his face twitched slightly. Slowly raise your head. Looking at Li Cunqiao. said: "So. The pawn is divided into two ways. This king gallops the army outside. What to do. Do something."

Li Cunqiao said: "Eliminate the peripheral troops of the Khitan reinforcements as much as possible. Cut off his wings. In the end, it was forced to fight. One battle can be done."

"Cut off the wings."

Duan Mingyu's eyes flashed. Vaguely understood something. Asked, "Cut off the wings...... Could it be the Yandi Han General?"

"Not bad. Although the Khitan reinforcements had 500,000 men. But there were more than 100,000 Han troops among them. The prince can start from the Han army. Once the Han army could not afford this casualty. Then their hearts won't be all on the Khitan side. But make it pay enough casualties. The prince will have to put more thought into it."

"That's not a problem. I'll let them know what a certain family is up to." Duan Mingyu pondered for a moment and then said decisively.

Li Cunqiao saw that Duan Mingyu already understood. I couldn't help but smile on my face: "Not bad. Although the Khitan army of 500,000 is strong. But then they will be greatly discounted. But the prince must not be careless at that time. Most of us are southern soldiers. Not tolerant of the cold of the north. When I sent the troops, I didn't know that I was too confident. I thought that Yanjing could be won overnight. Still lack of experience in the northern winter. I didn't bring too many winter coats. The tent is the thin marching tent used by the Southern army. As soon as the ice and snow are shining, the cold wind is biting. The combat power will be greatly reduced. 300,000 troops. It's horrific to do wartime. But this behemoth eats horses and feeds them. How much supply is needed. We have a long front. And the geography of the north. The Khitan soldiers and horses are far more familiar than us. Just send troops to cut off our supply lines. When the time comes, we will have no food or grass. and there is no warm robe. That will crush without a fight. So the prince has to take the initiative."

Duan Mingyu nodded repeatedly. And again: "After months of rectification. We have already mastered the cities of several states that we have won. If the Khitans don't want to fight me. Then the king can adopt another tactic. The enemy advances and I retreat. The enemy is stationed in our harassment. The enemy is tired and I fight. When the enemy retreats, I chase. Drag down the enemy with guerrilla tactics. Big strides and retreats. Lure the enemy deeper. Concentrate your forces. Individual breaks. Destroy enemy forces in a campaign war. In this way. Jerod was in pain. will definitely take the initiative to fight me. The third step is to officially duel the male and female. And the final battle will only be won. Can't be defeated."

This tactic was not invented by the great man. But it was systematically sorted out and summarized in Duan Mingyu's hands. Carry forward the essence of ancient and modern guerrilla warfare and sports warfare. This tactic. The nephew is suitable for Duan Mingyu's current situation.

The Li family has been sitting in Hedong for generations. With the Khitans are also long-term professors. Li Cunmiao Danfan conquered Mobei. The strength has never been so stretched as it is now. So in his usual fighting mindset . It is difficult to jump out of the confines of combat experience formed over many years at once. But his opponents. Those desert tribes are masters of guerrilla warfare and sports warfare. Although the Hedong Army has won many victories. But it's hard to get rid of these enemies. It's a different place at the moment. Then understand these strategies and tactics. It's easier to understand than ordinary people.

So Li Cunqiao only closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He has already comprehended the essence of this movement warfare and guerrilla warfare. To put it mildly. Although the essence of this guerrilla warfare and sports warfare was told to him by Duan Mingyu. His comprehension was far above Duan Mingyu. I couldn't help laughing out loud: "The prince is resourceful. He is really a minister of the country. There is a good solution. The Khitan army of 500,000 is not to be feared."

The plan has been decided. Xu Jing's 50,000 soldiers and horses and 30,000 soldiers and horses of the three feudal domains were stationed under Yanjing City. but they will not besiege the city. It's just to prevent the soldiers and horses in Yanjing City from going out of the city to attack and harass the army. It looks like he's ready to leave the nest. But it made Yelufeng, who was guarding the city, very puzzled. But since Xu Jing didn't come to attack. Jerodon will not rush out of the city to attack. In case of fraud. Or suffer a big loss. Lost Yanjing City. Then his sins will be great. So these 80,000 horses really contained the 100,000 defenders in the city.

And Duan Mingyu personally led an army of more than 200,000 troops. Straight to the periphery of Qi County. More than 200,000 people were stationed in a small county. Confronted the Khitan 500,000 reinforcements on the opposite side. Yelu Deguang learned that Duan Mingyu personally led a large army to rescue Qi County. Can't help but be ecstatic. Yang Tian laughed and said, "Duan Mingyu is also faint. actually went out to save Qi County. Doesn't he know that Youzhou Yanjing City is the place he must get? Can't beat Youzhou. He was rooted in the county for a year, and a certain family was also happy to see it. Hahaha......"

The third prince, Yelu Lihu, is also happy. Hurriedly out of work. He clasped his fists and saluted: "Second Emperor Brother. Zhao Wang Duan Mingyu went to aid Qi County. It's a rare opportunity. The end will be thought of. The imperial brother should immediately send a group of men and horses to bypass Qi County. Block Duan Mingyu's way back to his teacher. The imperial brother personally led the army to Youzhou. If you can wipe out the people besieging Youzhou. Victory in World War I. That's naturally best. If you can't. It can also make Duan Mingyu lead a group of remnants to roam outside like lonely ghosts. It's hard to go home back to."
