Chapter 184 Eight Hundred Miles of Unquenchable Beacon Fire, Water Poor Places Have Their Own Clouds (2)

After receiving the two letters and reports in the Khitan camp, Yelu Naer took a cursory glance, and then a look of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and he handed the letter to the left and right, "The marshal has long expected that Li Congjing will come to attack Yannan, and has ordered Kuchi Yesuer to send troops to support, this support army has reached sixty miles away, and it will be here from time to time!" ”

Both left and right were overjoyed, and some people danced with their eyebrows: "The big handsome is really a clever calculation, now that we are stuck in the inner camp, the Tang army will definitely not be able to attack for a while, and the reinforcements of General Kuchi and Su'er will also arrive, and then we will be able to gather and annihilate the Tang army here!" ”

"Exactly!" Yelu Naer rubbed his hands again and again, "After defeating the Jizhou army, the marshal has also led his troops back to help, since he calculates that Li Congjing will come to attack Yannan, he will naturally not let Li Congjing go." With such a three-sided attack, the Tang army will be defeated! ”

"Handsome and wise!" At the same time, in the north of Jizhou City, Yelu Xiangyin is also accepting the flattery of the staff generals, although Jizhou City is close at hand, but Yelu Xiangyin has ordered the army to retreat, although the troops are coming to the city and not attacking the city, but to return to Yannan.

Yelu wanted to look at Jizhou City with a hidden hand, and said hesitantly: "Jizhou City is a pie left to me by Li Congjing, in the case of heavy casualties of the Jizhou army, Jizhou City is like a beauty without clothes, it looks easy to take down." Li Congjing just wants to lure me to attack this city, so that I can ignore Yannan, hum, the idea of the erector is not bad, but unfortunately, although Jizhou City is coveted, I am not the mad dog who pounced on the bones when he saw it, it is of great significance to take Jizhou City, but the loss of Yannan, the loss can not be made up for in any case, which is more important, how can I not tell the difference? ”

The Jizhou rout army is retreating into the city, and you can see that the city of Jizhou is busy, and it looks very panicked, such a city that seems to be within reach, Yelu wants to hide at this time and restrain his desires.

"There is a big and small benefit, and there is a saying in the Central Plains, which is called giving up the fish and taking the bear's paw, which is a breakthrough. Although Jizhou City is important, it is not worth mentioning compared to Li Congjing. As long as Li Congjing can be defeated this time, Jizhou will be in my Great Khitan bag sooner or later, so there is no need to rush at this time. Yelu wanted to hide the last word, the army pursued here, originally aimed at Jizhou City, and now suddenly wants to withdraw the army, so naturally he has to give the soldiers an explanation.

Li Congjing got two pieces of information, one of which was that Kuchi Yesuer's reinforcements were about to arrive, and this information made Li Congjing, who was preparing to attack the inner camp in Yannan with all his might, frown. He asked the generals to return to their original positions, and returned to the military tent with Mo Li and a few other henchmen, and after telling everyone the news, he said slowly: "The Yingzhou reinforcements are coming, if they are allowed to join forces with the Khitan army in the inner camp, the Khitan inner camp will definitely not be able to conquer, how to deal with it, what can you do?" ”

The shock caused by this news to everyone is beyond words.

The army went north to attack Yannan, which was the result of careful arrangement, although it was expected that Yelu Xiangyin would be aware of it, but in the case of Yelu Xiangyin being dragged by the Jizhou army, he was destined to not be able to return to Yannan in time, and in this time difference, the Tang army was able to break through the Yannan Khitan camp. In Li Congjing's original arrangement, Ma Huaiyuan retreated into the city of Jizhou after showing weakness and "fleeing", luring Yelu to hide the siege of the city, and he relied on the strong city and the help of Peng Zushan in the city, so it was not difficult to hold on, so that he could wait for the hundred battle army that broke through Yannan to come back. If Yelu Xiangyin did not attack Jizhou, and did not matter, Li Congjing only needed the Jizhou army to drag Yelu Xiangyin for a day or two, so that he could take Yannan before Yelu Xiangyin returned to aid Yannan. This is a trap, as long as Yelu Yuyin starts to pursue the Jizhou army, he has already fallen into a trap, no matter how early or late he awakens, it will not help.

But right now, the Yingzhou Khitan army came too early. According to their itinerary, it is very likely that Yelu Xiangyin gave an order to Kuchi Yesu'er before deciding to pursue Ma Huaiyuan, otherwise the Khitan army in Yingzhou would not have come so quickly.

This is also too incredible, because it means that before pursuing Ma Huaiyuan, Yelu wanted to hide that the Tang army might come to attack Yannan!

"It can't be! How could Yelu Hidden expect that we were coming to attack Yannan?! When talking about this issue, Meng Ping first expressed his dissent.

"How Yelu wants to know it, I can't know at the moment, but that's the case, otherwise, I can't explain why the reinforcements from Yingzhou came so quickly!" Li Congjing said in a deep voice, in the face of the facts, all assumptions became meaningless, "The question at the moment is, if Yelu Yuyin has already expected that we will come to attack Yannan, why does he still leave Yannan and pursue the Jizhou army?" ”

At this time, Yelu wanted to hide in Yannan, so how could he take the initiative to leave Yannan and divide his troops to pursue the Jizhou army, so that Yannan's forces would be weakened?

"There's only one explanation." Mo Li spoke slowly, he looked directly at Li Congjing, his eyes were a little terrifying, "Yelu wants to divide his troops to pursue the Jizhou army, and he will expose the weakened Yannan to us, it is intentional!" ”

"Don't drive, mean, Yelu wants to hide a trap for me and others?" Wang Pu was surprised, "He divided his troops to the south, just to lure us and others to attack Yannan?" ”

"If you don't show the enemy weakness, how can you lure the enemy to attack? If you don't show your enemies for profit, how can you lure them to grow up? Mo Li's voice became deeper and lower, "Yelu wants to do this, the plan is not small!" He could have guarded Yannan without moving, and with his strength and defense, he could easily make us and others work in vain, and he would have achieved the goal of entangling us in Lulong. And what he is doing now shows that he does not want to fight a tepid war, that is to say, Yelu wants to hide that he is not satisfied with defense, he wants to attack, and he intends to completely defeat our army! ”

Li Congjing groaned: "The situation is clear, Yannan is a trap, and it is the fat that Yelu wants to hide to tempt us!" However, now that we have bitten the fat, Yelu is bound to make the next move. At present, it is difficult for the Khitan inner camp to conquer in one fell swoop, and the Khitan camp state reinforcements are coming, and it will be difficult for us to win. Since Yelu Xiangyin chose the battlefield in Yannan, he must have been on the way back at this time, and they will attack from three sides, and our situation is indeed not good. ”

This attack on Yannan, Li Congjing did not make up his mind at the beginning, if there were no ten thousand horsemen Khitan to rescue Yelu Gemeng who was trapped in Ma Huaiyuan's ambush, revealing Yannan with insufficient troops, Li Congjing would not have rushed hundreds of miles. If Li Congjing did not come to attack Yannan, but ambushed Yelu Gemeng with Ma Huaiyuan, there would be no current predicament.

However, in the final analysis, Li Congjing, like Yelu Xiangyin, has strong self-confidence and even conceit, and is not satisfied with small fights, but wants to completely defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.

The cleverness of Yelu Wanting to hide is that when he saw that Li Congjing had not appeared for a long time, he keenly caught Li Congjing's plan and the possibility of attacking Yannan, and then he took the initiative to expose the flaws and lure Li Congjing to lead the army to attack Yannan, turning this possibility into a reality!

The transition between hunter and prey on the battlefield is sometimes so fast that it can be unexpected.

The reason why Li Congjing did not convene a meeting with the generals, but first had a secret conversation with Mo Li and others, was also because he considered that after this news spread, it would cause unnecessary panic in the whole army, he looked at everyone and asked again: "If the situation is like this, what can I do?" ”

Mo Li and the others pondered for a while, sighed faintly, and said to Li Congjing, who was serious but not flustered: "For today's plan, I'm afraid there is only ......."

Looking at the army class, in the eyes of awe left and right, Yelu wanted to hide but looked indifferent, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

His generals and staff, because of his remarks on this trip, thought that he had really thought about conquering Jizhou City before, and gave up temporarily at this time, because he guessed that Li Congjing was going to attack Yannan.

In reality, that's not the case at all!

There are some things that Yelu Yuyin will not tell his subordinates and staff members who serve him, because they are just pawns in his hands, tools he uses to make achievements, not his friends.

In Yelu's plan to hide, he never thought about attacking Jizhou City at all!

Even the purpose of his southward pursuit of the Jizhou army this time was not what he told everyone, to find out Li Congjing's back hand and details.

He has his plan and layout, and this layout is known only to him. And those who only need to do what he commands him to do have no need or wisdom to understand what is in his heart.

He looked at Jizhou City coldly, looked at the Khitan army of the class division, and the arrogance and conceit in his eyes were undiscoverable to anyone, but they were real. The way he looked at these things, these people's eyes were like the sky overlooking the earth, without the slightest temperature, like looking at pigs and dogs.

It's arrogant, but he has the capital to be arrogant. He didn't think that the sentient beings in front of him had the need for him to pay attention, he only valued a very small number of people who deserved his attention, such as Yelu Abaoji.

Facing the north, raising his chin slightly, Yelu wanted to hide his expression with a cold and arrogant expression, and said to himself: "Li Congjing, although you are young, you are ambitious, and there is nothing wrong with this. But if you are conceited about your talent and think that you can control everything, that is just laughing and generous. The reason why you won streaks before was not because you were strong, but simply because your opponent was too weak. In front of the truly strong, you will realize that you are nothing more than a joke. In the face of such a strong person, you will know how stupid you are and how failed you are. ”

"You want to support Bohai, you want to eat my army in Yannan and Yingzhou, and you can't wait for a moment, in order not to be dragged by me in Lulong, you have exhausted your efforts. But alas, you are destined to be dragged here by me, and your life will be here too! ”
