Chapter 282: Burning the City

The night is quiet and sparsely populated, Heyang City, the main general camp.

The city was well defended, and on the top of the city, torches flickered, emitting a faint light, scattered on the city walls, soldiers in armor, and patrols patrolled the camp back and forth, without the slightest sign of slackness.

In the past few days, the Yan army has continued to attack the city, and the city wall of Heyang City is in dilapidation, seriously damaged, and there is no time to retouch, and many blood-stained wall bricks are hanging in the air, looking precarious.

The Jin army defending the city, the vicissitudes of life have a little worried, but they are a little unyielding and stubborn, and they have the tenacious character of the Jin people.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Lun Jian sat in the candlelight, and with the light of translucent, he browsed in detail the news that spies had come from all sides in recent days, and the letters all described the battlefield situation in Longlin County.

Wang Lun kept flipping through it quickly, and his beautiful face gradually became heavy. In the letters, there was a lot of news, but there was nothing to make her happy, all bad news from all over the world.

The whole county of Yanghe County fell, and the Yan army broke into Merin County. The Yan army frequently dispatched troops, and Qingyang City was in a precarious situation. News came from Jinyang City, and the emperor ordered the rapid annihilation of the Yan army of Longlin County, and cooperated with Northern Zhao and other countries in advance to implement the plan of the Five Kingdoms to destroy the Song Dynasty. These three things made Wang Lun feel too much pressure on his shoulders.

According to the current situation, if she continues to defend the city, the Yan army in the Molin County area alone is enough to cut off the retreat and grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops in Longlin County, but the Jin army can't support the wall in the mud, and she can't do any of these three things at present.

In recent days, in the face of the Yan army's continuous siege of the city, she continued to strictly order the generals of the five cities to defend the city and step up the training of the guards.

But now the news that comes back shows that Yanghe County was lost, the Yan army invaded Molin County, and there was a crisis in Qingyang City.

The Yan army entered Merlin County, and Wang Lunkey, as a general, had an unshirkable responsibility, but this would not make her despair, at least Mu Xiaotian had already been dispatched.

The Yan army attacked Merlin County in front, and Mu Xiaotian arrived in Yanghe County, and he would soon take back Yanghe County.

The problem that worries her comes from Qingyang City, the Yan army's siege method, which looks stupid and clumsy, but for the cavalry, it is the most effective, and the cavalry can rush up the city wall without any scruples and break through the city.

The most unfavorable situation for the Jin army was that the 350,000 guards guarded five cities, among which Heyangcheng, which was opposite the Yan army, and Qingyang City, which was opposite the northern army, had the most soldiers left, with as many as 80,000 each.

And the Northern Army of Dayan has more than 200,000 people, if the cavalry charges into Qingyang City, captures Qingyang City, and annihilates the defenders of Qingyang City, there is almost no doubt.

The annihilation of the 80,000 Jin army is undoubtedly worse for the Jin army, which is not strong at present.

Wang Lunkey does not underestimate the Jin army, but he also does not despise the Yan army, how to solve the problem of Qingyang City, so that she is restless and does not think about tea and dinner.

But there is still no effective method

In the dead of night, before she was resting, the spies came with the news that the Yan army had attacked the camp.

Hearing this, Wang Lunjian first thought of Qingyang City, because, among all the current news, Qingyang City is the most dangerous, if the Yan army attacks the camp, Qingyang City will be broken by the Yan army first, and there is basically no need to doubt it.

However, according to the spies' report, it was not Qingyang City that was attacked, but the Mu Xiaotian Legion, which had already led the army to leave.

At first, Wang Lunjian still didn't understand why the Yan army was willing to seek near and far, and went all the way to pursue Mu Xiaotian's army, but when the spies finished narrating the situation, Wang Lunkey was completely angry.

She personally sent Mu Xiaotian to lead the army out of the city, and before leaving, she reminded Mu Xiaotian many times of the importance of obstructing and even annihilating the Yan army in Yanghe County.

In the past two days, if it weren't for the Yan army's continuous attack on the city and continuous attacks, she would have been disturbed and restless, and she would definitely pay attention to Mu Xiaotian's army, but it's a pity.

Fortunately, the spy said, the Yan army suddenly withdrew inexplicably, and the Mu Xiaotian army lost tens of thousands of cavalry, but it was not completely annihilated.

However, Mu Xiaotian did not go to Yanghe County, which meant that Yanghe County had completely fallen and would be difficult to recover in a short period of time. The Yan army that entered Merlin County will be able to attack the city and plunder the land without any pressure.

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, Mu Xiaotian, the bastard, had completely ruined her plan, which might put Jin Guo in a passive position of being beaten everywhere.

It's a pity that the affairs of Mu Xiaotian's army have become endless and more complicated after all, so that Wang Lunkey, who has no sleep, completely loses the idea of resting.

It's not because she was thinking about how to punish Mu Xiaotian and other generals, but it was really strange what Mu Xiaotian's army suffered tonight, overnight, the Yan army attacked the camp three times.

The first two times, she also couldn't guess the intentions of the Yan army, when she learned that the Yan army attacked the camp for the third time, Mu Xiaotian was furious, led the army to chase out of the camp, and was unfortunately surrounded in the end, she finally knew the intentions of the Yan army.

Two birds with one stone, absolutely two birds with one stone, the Yan army's plan is not small, not only has the idea of annihilating the Mu Xiaotian army, but also calculates the cavalry of the five cities, and definitely wants to annihilate the reinforcements sent by himself.

Repeatedly browsing the letters on the desk, the Yan Army's Central Army and the Northern Army continue to transfer troops, at present, it seems that there is such a possibility, otherwise, the Yan Army will not attack the camp three times in a row, completely angering Mu Xiaotian, and at the same time, a new deployment has begun.

She had to admire the perseverance and determination of the generals of the Yan army, the cunning of their behavior, and the strictness of their thoughts, at present, if the Yan army acted according to the plan, it would undoubtedly put her in a dilemma, and she couldn't help but be angry in her heart, and secretly scolded Mu Xiaotian for being a bastard.

If she can't think of a good way to rescue Mu Xiaotian's army, the 100,000 Jin Kingdom soldiers will all be annihilated, but the Yan army will not suffer much losses, and this battle will undoubtedly seriously affect the momentum of the Jin army.

At the same time, the problems faced by Qingyang City will also be infinitely magnified, and whether to save or not to save has become a crucial and important decision that affects the battle situation.

Sleepless all night, refreshed in the past, delicate and beautiful female general, her face was full of tiredness, her heart rate seemed to be crisp, and she was helpless.

Fortunately, after detailed calculation, Wang Lunjian also has a simple idea in his heart, which may not be mature, but it is the only way at present.

Mu Xiaotian, she didn't want to save it, the other party had already destroyed the Jin army's defense line, and ten Mu Xiaotian couldn't get back the current losses of the Jin army. But there are still tens of thousands of cavalry under Mu Xiaotian's command, which is the most elite cavalry in the Jin Kingdom at present, and if he doesn't lend a hand, the loss is too great.

At dawn, Wang Lunjian summoned Gu Yue, Hou Ran and other generals into the big tent, hoping to brainstorm and solve the current dilemma.

Gu Yue and the others came to the big tent and saw Wang Lunkey's tired face, so they knew that the general had not slept all night, something important must have happened, otherwise, at dawn, everyone would be summoned into the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss the military situation.

Several generals, after reading the letter sent by Wang Lunkey, suddenly their expressions became strange, shocked, surprised, angry, Hou Ran couldn't help but slam the letter on the table, and shouted: "General, Mu Xiaotian, this bastard who has not done enough to do more than defeat, he does not go to Yanghe County, but is attacked and surrounded by the Yan army. ”

"I know, blame me for looking down on Mu Xiaotian" Wang Lunjian said depressedly, at the beginning, Gu Yue reminded her that if she sent Mu Xiaotian away, the other party would definitely not carry out the order, and sure enough, he was in a word. "Although Mu Xiaotian is a bastard and should be cut with a thousand knives, if you don't save him, the Jin army will lose tens of thousands of troops."

Wang Lunkey is distressed only by the 100,000 Jin army, and she is lazy to deal with Mu Xiaotian, if she rescues Mu Xiaotian, she will also send Mu Xiaotian to prison with her own hands, so that the other party can experience the punishment of the criminal law.

"General, at present, the Yan army is not only besieging Mu Xiaotian, but also may capture Qingyang City at any time, and the situation is very unfavorable to us" Gu Yue said. Unexpectedly, overnight, the original stalemate between the two sides would become complicated, completely deviating from the pre-expectation and developing in a direction that was unfavorable to the Jin army.

"Qingyang City, I have a solution, no matter how many people the Yan army has, if they attack Qingyang City, I want him to die without a place to be buried." Wang Lun clenched his silver teeth, his face was full of anger, and he said categorically: "Tell me, how to save Mu Xiaotian, if you can't save him, you must find a way to annihilate the 100,000 cavalry of the Yan army, otherwise, I am unwilling." ”

"The last general asked to personally lead the troops to annihilate the nest of the Yan army." Liu Dashan bowed his hand and asked for help. According to his conjecture, since the Yan army set a trap and ambushed the Mu Xiaotian army, and was ready to ambush the reinforcements sent by Heyang City, he thought that the Yan army camp would definitely be very dense, unlike the usual strict defense.

At this moment, attacking the Yan army camp can solve the urgent need.

"The Yan army camp is as tightly defended as an iron bucket, and attacking the Yan army camp is tantamount to looking for death. However, in my plan, the Yan army camp must be attacked. Wang Lun said, then his eyes swept over everyone, and he said in a resolute tone: "Under the current circumstances, I want to give up the five cities of Heyang and retreat to Taihu County. ”

"General, why, let's defend the five cities of Heyang, the Yan army is difficult to move an inch, even if there is a crisis in Qingyang City, it is not impossible to solve, giving up the five cities of Heyang means that the defense line of the five cities is self-defeating, and our efforts and sacrifices for days will be completely destroyed." Gu Yue asked, the location of the five cities of Heyang is very important, and there is absolutely no room for loss, giving up the five cities of Heyang means giving up Longlin County, and the loss is huge.

The importance of the five cities of Heyang, Wang Lun is not unclear, but Mu Xiaotian completely disrupted her plan, if she didn't want to try to annihilate the main force of the Yan army, it would be no surprise that Merlin County would fall, and Qingyang City would be breached, it was also a matter of time, not to mention, Mu Xiaotian's army would lose in vain.

"Do you know how I plan to deal with the Yan army in Qingyang City?" asked Wang Lunkey, who swept over the generals.

"Please speak up"

"A tooth for a tooth," Wang Lun said fiercely.

"Does the general want to catch turtles in the urn?"

"Burning the City"
