Volume 13 The Angry Waves of the South China Sea - Dongou Volume Chapter 5 Iron Wall

……

In the north of Dongou Kingdom, under a hill, the military camp of 200,000 Qin troops is stationed here, and the company camp is more than ten miles, *** brilliant, majestic and magnificent!

And in Fusu's handsome tent, it is also *** clear, and all the generals are gathering to discuss matters!

Fusu looked at the simple map drawn by the villagers and scout detectives in recent days, and said with some frowns: "Princess, since my army entered the Dongou border for three days, it has not encountered the attack of a single soldier in Dongou, and it has also run away from the people, it seems that this Dongou people are planning to play cat and mouse tricks with us!" What do you think?"

Li Xin looked at the map and said: "This area is full of mountains, one mountain is one mountain, one mountain is on the edge of another, plus the jungle is dense, the grass and trees are tall and long, once the Ouyue people hide in the mountains, we are afraid it will be difficult to find their traces!"

Ren Huan nodded and said, "Yes." According to the current situation, the people of Ouyue know that hard fighting is definitely not the opponent of our army, so they are strong and clear, and escape into the mountains! Since they don't want to fight with us, then we have to use tricks to force them out, or lure them out!"

Fusu nodded and said, "What General Ren said is reasonable, but there is a good way?" Ren Huan frowned, and said with a wry smile, "There is no way for the time being, Rong Weijiang will think about it again!"

Fusu touched his head and suddenly remembered: "I remember that in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese devils often used the method of encirclement by iron walls to deal with the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army. Wouldn't that be the case today?"

Fusu clapped his palms happily and said, "Princess, this monarch has a way!" The generals were overjoyed and said, "Will the plan be released?"

Fu Su said with a smile: "This move of this monarch is called 'Iron Wall Encirclement'! Generals, please see, the east of Dongou Kingdom is the sea, and the south is Minyue Kingdom, so there is not much room for return!" We changed the way of fighting, divided the 200,000 army into two roads, from the north and west to the hinterland of the East Ou country, and the army of each road was divided into a number of branches, taking care of each other in turn to clear the hinterland step by step for the camp to advance, due to the large number of our army, and the enemy still has little room for turning, in such a tight way, the encirclement will inevitably shrink smaller and smaller, and finally force the Ouyue people to take the initiative to go out of the mountains and fight a decisive battle with us!

Of course, in order to prevent the Ouyue people from escaping from the gaps in the various departments of our army, all departments must send more scouts and guerrillas into the mountains and forests to closely monitor the movements of the Ouyue people, and at the same time, all the important passes that pass through are either guarded by heavy troops or all blocked, so as to limit the scope of the activities of the Dongou people, so that no matter how tightly the hundreds of thousands of Ouyue people are hidden, I am afraid that it will not take more than a month for us to force them out!"

Li Xin was overjoyed when he heard this: "Wonderful! In a situation where our army has a heavy army and the enemy has little room for return, this method is indeed the safest and most effective!"

A lieutenant asked: "Then what if the people of Ouyue see that the situation is not good and flee to Minyue?" Ren Huan smiled and said: "No, although Dongou and Minyue are both Yue people, but the relationship between these two countries is not good, there are often conflicts, Minyue should not let Dongou people enter!"

Even if the Minyue Kingdom saw that the Great Qin Army was pressing the border, and felt the chill of the lips and teeth and cooperated with the Dongou Kingdom to let the Dongou people withdraw into its territory, then wouldn't we also smoothly enter and occupy the Dongou border and achieve the first goal!"

The crowd was enlightened. Let's call it wonderful!

Su smiled: "Okay, then do it!" The commander of the Western Route Army will be General Ren, and I will give you another 50,000 'wolf teeth, strange soldiers', they are the best at going deep behind and spying on intelligence, with their help, they will definitely be able to force out the Dongou people faster!" Whoa!" Let the hustle and bustle!

……

The next day, the 200,000 Qin army was divided into two groups, one north and one west, and they were approaching the eastern Ou Kingdom, pressing step by step. The way of searching layer by layer is advancing towards the hinterland of Dongou step by step.

According to the deployment of Fusu: the Qin army in the north and the west were divided into seven armies: six branch armies were divided into seven armies with 10,000 people each, searching and advancing every 50 miles, and the middle route army was 40,000 people away, remotely commanding all major powers, and as many as 200,000 Qin troops spread a large net on a 700-mile-long front, and a large number of secret agents were scattered on every ravine and every mountain, and a strict search was carried out.

In this way, the Dongou State, which was only half the size of Zhejiang Province, had little room for return, and was pressed by the Qin army step by step towards the hinterland of Dongou Province.

From the third day, the confrontations between the Qin army and the scattered Dongou Yue soldiers gradually increased, although it was only a small force, but it also made the Qin generals very excited, because this shows that the living space of the Dongou people is shrinking step by step, and it also shows that the patience of the Dongou people is gradually exhausted!

Therefore, seeing that this method was effective, the Qin army adjusted the formation slightly, stabilized the rear that had been cleared, and continued to advance, during the march, the Qin army either burned all the dangerous passes and mountain roads with fire or blocked them with rocks, and some important passes, roads, and towns were guarded by heavy troops; Moreover, the Qin army will set up a beacon tower every ten miles, guarded by 100 people, contact each other, and call the police, anyway, the Qin army has a lot of soldiers, so this arrangement will not waste many troops!

In this way, the Qin army gradually occupied Dongou and established a very strict early warning and counterattack system!

Gradually, the Yue people, whose living space was greatly compressed, couldn't help it, and gathered a few slightly larger forces to launch a whirlwind-like assault on the Qin army from all directions, but the complete early warning system of the Qin army found this large-scale counterattack of the Yue people. The Qin army, which had a huge advantage in numbers, easily smashed the Yue people's hard counterattack, and continued to advance slowly but firmly towards the hinterland of Dongou!

In just one month, the territory of Dongou State was reduced by half, and the Qin army also left a huge military force of as many as 70,000 or 80,000 people and a strict early warning system on the occupied land, firmly locking the passage for the Yue people to break through to the north and west! And the remnants of the Zuoou army and civilians were blocked in a narrow area less than 200 miles wide from east to west and less than 250 miles long from north to south!

The generals of the Qin army became more and more excited, according to this situation, in less than half a month, more than 100,000 Dongou soldiers and civilians would definitely be forced to show their original form and fight a decisive battle with the Qin army! As a result, the Qin troops from all walks of life became more and more courageous, and while continuing to advance forward, they treated and mobilized some Yi people who did not participate in the Dongou rebellion to act as the Qin people's guides and eyeliners in accordance with the instructions of the Su, and began to compress the living space of the Dongou people more effectively!

……

Wenling Mountains, Qilao Peaks, Guyue Cave!

This is a huge cave group, half of the natural formation, half of the artificially dug out, is the most secret place of the Dongou people and the gathering place of materials, the main force of the Dongou Yue soldiers of 20,000 people and about 30,000 civilians are hiding here, waiting for the order to send troops!

In addition to the cold and cold moonlight, the mountains and forests at night have become a paradise for hungry wolves and night owls, and at the same time, the ancient moon cave has already been lit with blazing torches, illuminating the cave as bright as day!

In the middle of a gorgeously decorated, decorated with precious animal skins in the cave, there are more than ten people who distribute shawls in it, one in the middle, about thirty years, bare-faced, tall, wearing a rare light silver armor, looks majestic, especially the square face of the national character with a pair of bright eyes is even more vigorous! This is the jaw sleeve shake of the Dongou Yue people!

In his hands, it is the elders of the six departments of Dongou and the well-known generals of his subordinates, all of whom are wearing loose hair and jackets made of animal skins, with fierce faces and strong bodies, completely in the style of a barbarian!

The face of the tiger was gloomy, and the tiger sat on the king's chair with a precious tiger skin, looking at everyone with a gloomy face, and the gloomy voice couldn't help but make the generals under his command a little frightened and depressed: "The tactics adopted by the Qin army are very strange, unheard of and unseen for us, but they are very effective!" Now it's only been a month, and half of my Dongou land has been lost! If you don't want to find a way, I'm afraid that in less than ten days, the Qin army will advance to the front line of Qilao Peak, and our army will probably have to fight a head-on battle with the Qin army! Elders, generals, do you have any way to retreat from the enemy?"

The elders and generals looked at each other, speechless for a long time, and one of the elders suddenly said dissatisfied: "The Qin State is inevitably too deceitful, and the previous battles may not be all our faults, and our army took the initiative to retreat, but they are chasing after them and vowing to kill me, which is really annoying!"

Another elder shook his head and said, "You can't say that, for a big country like Qin, it doesn't matter if you lose some property and population, the important thing is that your dignity can't be violated!" Now that the King of Qin is unifying the world, it is when he is complacent and unfinished, but our army takes the initiative to attack Thailand, which makes the King of Qin angry and seeks his own death! At that time, I advised you not to covet petty profits and send troops easily, but now that the Qin army is overwhelmed, what's the use of regretting!?"

Hearing this, he waved his hand and said, "Elder Ji Yang and Elder Qi An, now is not the time to regret or complain to each other. The most important thing now is to unite and come up with a way to retreat from the enemy! Otherwise, I am afraid that the collapse of the Dongou Kingdom, which I have inherited for more than a hundred years, is just around the corner! In this way, if we are dead, what face will we have to see our ancestors!"

Hearing this, Su An frowned and said, "If you want to retreat from the enemy army, it's difficult!" Originally, we planned to clear the wilderness and retreat into the mountains, so as to lengthen the enemy's supply line, and secondly, the Qin army could not find the main force of our army for a decisive battle, and then sent a large number of guerrillas to attack its grain routes and camps. However, now the Qin army has adopted such a strange and effective method to compress the room for regression of our army and people little by little, which can be described as very vicious! The day before yesterday, several tentative attacks on the scale of 1,000 people were quickly discovered by the Qin army's scouts and beacon towers, and the Qin troops from all walks of life rushed up and down and returned defeated, in the face of the Qin army's such a dense and impregnable combat method, I am afraid that there is only one way to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, and there is no other way!"

Another elder, Anka, heard this: "Just kidding, the main force of the Qin army that can be mobilized at any time is at least more than 100,000 people, and the total number of our army is less than 30,000. Let's think about it again and see what the tricks are!"

Ji Yang smiled bitterly: "Strange tricks? The Qin army has a beacon tower every ten miles, and there are rangers and scouts everywhere, and the size of our army will be discovered by it if it is a little larger, and there is no way to use it!"

Su An thought for a while and said: "Now if we don't want to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, there are only two ways, first, quickly send someone to contact the king of Geyue, express our surrender, and let him accept us and others!"

As soon as these words came out, it immediately caused an uproar like stabbing a hornet's nest, and Anka stood up when he heard the words and said: "No, surrender nothing, don't even think about it!" Min Yue is our enemy, we are the descendants of the great Yue King Goujian, how can we descend to him as a sideline! I don't agree!"

The rest of the crowd is also against it, and they will not approve of it!

Even the donkey frowned and said, "This proposal is not advisable, what other suggestions does the elder have?"

Su An smiled bitterly: "There is another way, that is, to break through to the west and defect to the South Vietnamese tribes, I am of the same origin as the same clan, they should take us in!"

"No, we Dongou people have lived here for generations, how can we abandon our homeland and let the Qin army ravage! Moreover, the Qin army has a large army every fifty miles, and there is its main force every one hundred and fifty miles, and our army and civilians have a total of 50,000, the scale is too large, and the speed is too slow. The odds are too small to be advisable!" Ji Yang jumped out again!

Su An shook his head and said: "Since everyone is unwilling to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, and they are unwilling to claim vassal to Minyue, then there is only one way to break through to the west!" And since it is a breakthrough, you must not drag your family with your mouth, if you only use 20,000 elite soldiers to break through the Qin army at night, you should be able to fight a bloody way, as long as you don't love to fight, the number of successful breakthroughs should be fifty or fifty! If you don't agree with this, then you don't approve of it, and you have to wait for death!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately stared at each other and were dumbfounded!

He didn't say anything at this time, his eyes were on a sheepskin map on the stone wall on the right, and he thought hard.

Su An was a little anxious and said: "My king, now that the situation is critical, how to deal with Gu Xiu, please make a quick decision, if you delay any longer, the Qin army will become more and more tightly surrounded, I'm afraid we will only be helpless to let the Qin army strangle and be helpless!"

Mao Hu, the general under the wing, suddenly got up and said: "It's a big deal to fight with the Qin army, anyway, it is not okay for me to surrender to Minyue, and it is even more impossible to leave my wife and children and homeland and break through alone, none of our Yue men are afraid of death, my king, please give an order, let us fight to the death with the Qin army!"

"Yes, fight with Qin Jun!" The crowd was passionate, like a group of trapped beasts!
