The results of the reconnaissance team's search after a day made Jiang Wei feel a little relieved, and then after resting in Songshan City for one night, he went out of the city with a thousand troops, planning to rush seventy percent of the way on the first day while preserving the physical strength of the soldiers, and the next day, that is, the day of the move, rushed to the outside of Songhe City in one go, and directly launched the siege after a short rest!

Jiang Wei, who had made a plan, did not relax his carelessness, kept the soldiers vigilant along the way, and sent scouts along the road to reconnoiter the surroundings.

But it turned out that he seemed to be a little too nervous, because there were no accidents along the way, and he could be said to have completed the first day of the march unharmed with a thousand men and horses.

"It seems that the other party has really returned to Songhe City......" Jiang Wei thought about it, the siege army outside Shangyuan City was not a joke, not to mention that even the siege tower had already been used, who would dare to ignore such a threat?

Thinking of this, Jiang Wei couldn't help but feel a little relieved, camped overnight, a calm night made his tense nerves more and more relaxed, early in the morning, after letting the soldiers eat a little dry food, the army began to advance again, his marching efficiency was quite stable, according to the plan, it is estimated that before the noon siege, he can still have about an hour to rest and recuperate his troops.

"General, there is Songhe City ahead."

And this is indeed the case, listening to the report of a soldier under his command, although it was before the war, Jiang Wei was still relieved, at least so far, there has been no mistake in the whole plan.

Looking up to confirm the position of the sun in the sky, there was still some time before noon, Jiang Wei waved his hand, signaling the soldiers under his command to sit down on the spot, eat something, rest for a while, and make the last rest before the battle.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a dense sound of breaking the air suddenly penetrated Jiang Wei's ears, and before he could think about it, he saw a rain of arrows in the sky in the distance directly attacking their scattered military formation!

"There is an ambush?!" In the face of this sudden attack, Jiang Wei's troops were caught off guard on the spot, and a salvo caused them obvious casualties, and the already scattered military formation became even more chaotic in an instant.

As a general with troops, Jiang Wei was even more angry at this moment, he never thought that the other party was not ambushed near Songshan City, but near Songhe City!!

"Calm down, everyone! All shield and axe men form a defensive formation to resist the rain of arrows, and the halberd soldiers pay attention to the infantry units that are rushing around! Jiang Wei waved the bronze long sword in his hand to sweep away the arrows that were shooting at him one by one, and gave instructions loudly.

At the same time, his gaze quickly swept over the archer troops standing on the high ground in the distance, "Damn! Is it the terrain, is this archer army hiding under the high ground by taking advantage of the effect of the difference in terrain on the line of sight?! ”

Although he figured out how the archer army came out, Jiang Wei still couldn't let go of it in his heart, "Who is the commander of the army opposite?" How did you choose to fight an ambush in this position? The siege army of Shangyuan City has already been overwhelmed, is he going to ignore it? Abandoning Matsukawa Castle? Or is this army ambushed here the defending force of Eastern Frontier City?! ”

In a moment's time, Jiang Wei thought a lot in his mind, but the other party obviously didn't intend to let him continue to think about it, while the archer troops were exposed and attacked, the shield and axe troops ambushed on the other side also quickly killed!

Guo Zhen, who was wearing a bronze armor, took the lead in rushing to the front of the troops, his eyes swept over Jiang Wei sitting on horseback, Guo Zhen's eyes flashed a trace of disappointment, he was eager to kill the enemy generals who vented his anger It was not this, but anyway, as long as it was the enemy, then kill them all.

There were more troops waiting to ambush him here than Jiang Wei expected, and the moment the shield and axe soldiers on both sides collided together, they almost scattered the military formation that he had managed to stabilize again, and Jiang Wei was so shocked that he hurriedly began to command the shield and axe troops in front to meet the enemy, and at the same time couldn't help but feel even more strange in his heart, "So many troops? Are these outsiders really planning to give up Songhe City? I can't understand that Songhe City is a strategic location, and once they give up, they will have to lose at least half of the advantages they have accumulated in the early stage! Wait, do you mean ......?"

Between the thoughts flickering, Jiang Wei quickly thought of another possibility, "Could it be that the other party saw through His Majesty's strategy and knew that we wanted to attack Songhe City front and back, and knew that we couldn't hold it, so they simply took the initiative to give up Songhe City, and while preserving the troops, they would conduct a wave of ambush warfare against me here, and after the battle, they would directly withdraw to the Eastern Border City and re-arrange?" ”

The more Jiang Wei thought about it, the more he felt that he had guessed correctly, and for a while, the pressure in his heart was also rising, because if the other party did this, wouldn't his situation be in suspense?!

Secretly complained in his heart, here he is facing the entanglement of the enemy, it is not so easy to get rid of it, and the other party is estimated that it will not be so easy to let himself go, and he is on the other side, since he wants to give up Songhe City, then he has to make the other side pay a price, and this army behind is undoubtedly the best choice.

At this point, Jiang Wei could only command his soldiers to resist with all his might, hoping that the siege army of Shangyuan City on the other side could break through Songhe City as soon as possible, and then rush here to support him.

However, Jiang Wei was destined to be disappointed, it is estimated that he couldn't think of it even if he wanted to break his head, Luo Jida had no intention of giving up Songhe City from the beginning, he wanted to destroy all the thousand-strong troops that had outflanked him, and he also had to defend Songhe City, and even he wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack Songshan City.

I saw that at this moment, as noon approached, outside the city wall west of Songhe City, the siege army of Shangyuan City gathered again.

During this period of time, this army would come almost every day, and they would lower their eyelids and brush a wave of existence, but Zhao Pan, who had been appointed by Luo Ji as the general of Songhe City, did not have any trace of relaxation.

After all, his own personality is extremely rigorous, not to mention that two days ago, Luo Ji just called a messenger to bring the news and told him that the siege battle might be in the next two days, so that he could be mentally prepared, and Zhao Pan, who learned the news, was even more unlikely to relax his carelessness.

As for how did Luo Ji know? It's very simple, the focus is on the communication problem of this era, their messages are delayed, and in order to avoid this, there is a very simple way, that is, calculate the schedule in advance, and set a date for everyone to do it together.

And the scouts sent by Luo Ji, after discovering that Jiang Wei's thousand-strong army had left Songshan City, he pondered for a while when he got the news, and it was difficult to conclude that the other party would launch a formal attack in two or three days? This hand can be said to be a victory in the intelligence war.
