June 15.

Both sides of the war even stopped their attacks temporarily, the male Jia people hid in the village, and the soldiers of Daliang occupied the cities along the river in Hebei and did not move. Even Xiao Hanbu, the most popular tiger army, gave up the plan to attack Jiangling and Pyeongchang, like a tiger hiding in the dense forest. Hold back.

Only Xiangzhou City has become a lonely enclave, surrounded by the Xuanjia Army, but the Xiangzhou defenders are not worried, because they have enough food to eat for two years; They were well equipped enough and had a low casualty rate. After several fierce battles, no more than 3,000 people were wounded, while at least 20,000 were wounded.

Xiangzhou City, iron wall.

In fact, in addition to Xiangzhou, there is another city that is being surrounded, and that is Bohai City.

But the strategic position here is too low, whether it is Wanyan Trout or Huo Zizhen, they don't pay too much attention to it.

Just look at Du Shunnan, the new commander of Dizhou, and Tang Qi, the temporary fourth division of the Shence Army, who are making a small fight there.

Having said that, for Du Shunnan and Tang Qi, they both felt that the situation was not good. Tang Qi didn't dare to surround him, and Du Shunnan didn't dare to send troops easily, and the two sides were actually consumed.

Tang Qi buried the pot outside the city to make rice, and wisps of cooking smoke rose; Du Shunnan lit a cooking smoke in the city, echoing outside the city.

Sometimes such an interesting scene happens, Du Shunnan stands at the head of the city with a rice bowl, looking at the Liang Dynasty camp in the distance, and eating with the Liang Dynasty soldiers. Perhaps at this time, Tang Qi also looked at him with a rice bowl.

This kind of stalemate, which is easy on the surface, is actually hidden in the murderous intention, and the heart of the main general has been tense.

I don't know when the opponent will make a move, maybe as soon as he makes a move, he will immediately break the balance, and he will be between life and death.

——

After many on-site explorations, Tang Yuan finally made up his mind to set up an ambush in Ningjin, preparing to ambush a cavalry battalion of the enemy.

He had fully grasped the enemy disposition in several nearby villages, where the infantry was hidden, and a cavalry battalion of five hundred men was ready to echo.

"Looking at the deployment of the enemy army, if we break into the village and fight them in the streets, it will be purely self-defeating." Tang Yuan pointed to the sand table and said, "I have decided, I will personally lead the troops and hook out the enemy's cavalry battalion." Zhang Nu led his troops to an ambush. ”

Nalan Xin added: "The only thing to worry about now is that the enemy army will not come out. ”

"If we don't come out, we won't have anything to lose." Tang Yuan said.

Tang Hu said: "What is there to worry about, if they don't come out, we will set fire to the village." ”

Zhang Nu said angrily: "Tang Hu, what nonsense are you talking about. The village is full of Han people, how do you burn it? ”

Tang Yuan waved his hand, signaling Zhang Nu not to be angry, and said, "In my military tent, I have always advocated speaking freely, it doesn't matter if you say the wrong thing, after all, in the end, I and the prison army will make the final decision."

Never block everyone's words, because I don't know who will come up with a wonderful idea to change the tide of battle.

For example, the method mentioned by Tang Hu just now was originally a method, but the disadvantage was that it was not practical. The enemy has long thought of this, and they take advantage of our 'unbearable' and 'unable', which is why this tactic is arranged.

Utterly despicable.

However, their tactics are actually quite exquisite, and in the face of this spider web layout, the large army is coming, and they can't use it. If they are surrounded and do not fight, the reinforcements around them can quickly come closer. In the end, there was a scuffle with us in a narrow place, and the scuffle was what the men wanted to see. They are not good at formation, but they are well equipped and have strong individual combat capabilities.

What's worse is that if we increase our troops, they will continue to increase our troops, and in the end the whole of Hebei will be a pot of porridge. That's a complete mess. ”

After analyzing the overall situation, Tang Yuan looked at everyone, and all sides were like ashes. Only Nalan Xin didn't think so, looking left and right.

Tang Yuan knocked on the sand table and continued, "Don't be discouraged, everyone. No tactics are without shortcomings, and now our problems, including those considered by Marshal Huo Zizhen, are the same. Looking for a way to break the 'spider web'. If our action is successful, we may be able to provide Huo Dashuai with some ideas. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

Tang Yuan didn't look at them and continued: "We have two hundred cavalry now, and the biggest characteristic of cavalry is that they can run fast. We passed through the village, and as long as we engaged the infantry in their village and fought a little more lively, there was a good chance that their cavalry battalion would come to our aid. We'll run again then.

With the combat style of the male Jiaren, he will definitely chase it out. When the time comes, I will introduce them to this hill.

Don't be in a hurry to shoot, after all, we have too few arrows, three hundred infantry, each of them can only get five arrows, all counted, but fifteen hundred rounds. Estimating the distance, it is about fifty paces, and ten arrows at this distance can kill a heavy cavalry.

Let's assume that after five rounds of arrows, they can kill one hundred and fifteen enemies, then they still have three hundred and fifty people left.

When the time came, our 200 cavalry turned around and fought them in the valley. At this time, three hundred infantry rushed out and surrounded them with long ge, mo, spear, spear, and all kinds of long weapons.

As long as their cavalry is not allowed to run, the characteristics of cavalry will not be brought into play. If we can eat a cavalry battalion in one bite, then our equipment will be greatly improved, and everyone will be cavalry by then.

Heavy cavalry! ”

Tang Yuan had been designing this set of tactics for many days, and there were many problems in front of him, and there was a possibility of deviation in any link. What's even more deadly is that all this is Tang Yuan's speculation, as a rookie egg, his speculation can be somewhat practical, which is very doubtful.

But you can't just keep it going, otherwise food will be a big problem.

Now Tang Yuan believes that it is necessary to raise troops by war.

The food of Tang Qi's troops could be transported from the south bank of the river on a bamboo raft, but he could not get any support on his side.

The specific details were discussed for more than two hours, and finally decided to act tonight.

"Nalan Xin, don't follow, you leave Nahetutu to me, you lead thirty militiamen, watch the county order here, as for the city gate, just send two people to guard it." Once the enemy is killed, don't hesitate to run away. This time, I left you a good horse. ”

Nalan Xin thought about it for a while, and finally agreed.

It was getting dark.

Tang Yuan ordered all the cavalry to put on the military uniforms of the men. However, these military uniforms have been modified, and once the fight starts, you can change back into the Liang Dynasty military uniform with a stretch of hand. Otherwise, everyone will dress the same, and you won't hurt yourself.

Tang Yuan looked a little excited, and asked the soldiers to prepare more torches, but at first he didn't let them be used. He said that when he arrived in Ningjin and suddenly came out, it would be more deterrent.

In the past few days, he has been able to understand the nearby road conditions, and Tang Yuan took the lead and rushed to the front.

Far away, there are male sentries roaring. I couldn't understand what he was saying.

Tang Yuan asked Nahetutu to deal with it, but Nahetutu said: "I don't know what the code is, so I can only be blind." ”

Tang Yuan: "You entangle with him for a while, and if you can't get through, shoot him directly." ”

Nahetutu shook his head.

Tang Yuan's face was expressionless, and he drew a strong bow.

"Bang!"
