Text: Rise from the City_Chapter 117 The two armies face each other
The city of Fanta has been taken, and the sound of chaos is now everywhere in the city. This is the severed head army venting their pent-up emotions after the battle. As for what happened to those ordinary people, Xiao Chen didn't care, as long as those young people were not killed, it would not be a big deal.
The city of Fanta had a population of more than 113,000 people, and three days after the Broken Head army broke through the city, only about 70,000 people remained in the city. More than 40,000 old and infirm men were killed, the rest of the young men were also enslaved, and the women were placed in the camp to serve the severed soldiers.
Today is a good day, and now it has been about twenty days since the army set out. But the record is much stronger than the last time in the west, this time winning five cities in one go. And the last time, it took a few months, but only four cities were taken, and the effort was completely disproportionate to the gain.
Xiao Chen, with several generals under him, was looking at the drawings and studying the next plan of action.
Further west of Fanta City, there are many cities, which do not belong to each other. But when faced with foreign enemies, they are the same enemy. This is a trivial point, but think about it, if the players of the seventeen cities had not united, they would have been destroyed by Fanta City a long time ago.
Of course, it's also because it's an alliance of seventeen players. The big guys don't have many troops, but they are all evenly matched, and no one obeys anyone. In this way, these seventeen players, before the arrival of the Beichen Army, did not destroy Fanta City.
On the contrary, the previous consumption reduced the strength of Fanta City a lot, and also allowed Xiao Chen to take a big advantage. But the next step is a bit tricky, because the seventeen players have too many armies.
According to the report of the spies who were scattered in this area before, each player is about 10,000 troops. In other words, the severed head army led by Xiao Chen will face 200,000 enemy troops, which is a large-scale battle!
In a big battle, you can't say he's good, and you can't say he's bad. Well~ It all depends on the character. If you take advantage of it, you may be able to destroy the main army of the enemy army in one go. But if neither side has the confidence to completely destroy the other, a war of attrition will be fought. Even if you win in the end, it will definitely not be comfortable.
Therefore, Xiao Chen pulled a large group of people over, and he had to sum it up.
"Gongtai, what do you suggest?" After Xiao Chen explained the situation to everyone again, he asked Chen Gong directly. Xiao Chen has always thought that thinking about things with his head is too exhausting, and it is not good for the brain. After all, if you die of hundreds of millions of brain cells in one go, how much better will you be.
Chen Gong smiled and said: "Back to the king, in fact, the easiest way is to separate, but this seems to be a bit difficult to get!" ”
Xiao Chen directly threw Chen Gong a big white eye, Nima, separation? How do you think of it, everyone is all European and American players, hundreds of years ago they were all a family, and they were a yellow person to separate a bunch of white people, how to do it! Can anyone tell me how to go to the discord!
"King, there is still a plan in the future, if this plan is implemented well, maybe we can easily eliminate those Xiyi!" Chen Gong said mysteriously.
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up and said, "Gongtai, if you have a good way, say it earlier." Why don't you come up with a discordant plan to tease the big guy, hurry up and talk about some plan! ”
"The plan was simple! Now our army is still able to mobilize 300,000 soldiers, and now we plan to attack directly from the front with 200,000 troops and fight a battle with the enemy's large army. The rest of the 100,000 horses and horses were divided into two routes, one way 80,000 people detoured into the enemy's territory to attack, and it was recommended that the soldiers on this road advance lightly. ”
"The second way is to transfer out an army of 20,000 slaves, who, like the enemy, are all barbarians of the West. In addition, our army has captured a lot of Xiyi equipment in Fanta City, which can be used for a while. ”
Chen Gong said this, Xiao Chen didn't understand, then he could really find tofu to play. Advance in three ways, one way to contain the front, one way to make a detour to raid the rear of the enemy, and the other way to disguise yourself as an enemy army, wandering back and forth! Oh, this ploy has to be said to be a good ploy! He is worthy of being a famous general among strategists!
"Great King, the last general thinks that what the military advisor said is very true, this plan can definitely give those Xiyi on the other side a headache." Zhang Han stood up and said.
Wang Ping also stood up and suggested: "My lord, I think this strategy of the military advisor can be completely connected with the divisive plan. The Servant Army disguises itself as one of the forces in the enemy alliance and goes to fight other people's cities, making a lot of hype along the way. In this way, the pressure on the main forces of our army's frontal offensive can be reduced by at least half! ”
"Well, very good! Very good! Let's follow this plan! With a wave of Xiao Chen's hand, the next deployment of the whole army was completely decided.
"Zhang Han listens to the order! This king has appointed you as the commander of an army of 200,000 men, with full authority over the armies of the frontal battlefield! ”
"No! The last will obey! ”
"Wang Ping! This king has commanded you to command an army of 80,000, of which 20,000 are iron horsemen and 60,000 light soldiers. Take a detour to kill me in the rear of the enemy army, whether you are attacking the city or looting the logistics, as long as you don't kill me so many soldiers! ”
"No! The last will be ordered! ”
"That's right! Meng Qi and Luo Cheng, both of you are with Zijun and obey Zijun's command. ”
Ma Chao and Luo Cheng immediately clasped their fists and saluted: "No! The last will obey! ”
"Hmmm! Well? What about this servant army, there are no one who can understand English among our generals! Xiao Chen was suddenly entangled, because after an order, he found that the most critical slave army actually had no general to command.
Needless to say, Zhang Han is a famous general of the Qin State, and he is the most experienced in frontal battles. Therefore, the commander of the 200,000 army attacking head-on is none other than him.
Wang Ping, who made a detour to play the raid battle, was also crucial, even if they couldn't take the city, it was still easy to cause some trouble for the enemy. If you can cut off all the grain and grass of the enemy army, then it is called bull fork domineering.
But there is no way for this slave army to play trickery in the city, and it is still okay for small generals like Luo Cheng, Zhang Jian, and Chen Zhi to charge into battle. But it is unsettling to let them lead the army to carry out the most important part of the plan.
Besides, several of them have been by Xiao Chen's side all year round, and they have led the slave army there. I know a few Chinese characters, and I can speak a lot of Chinese. But this English is terrible, and it seems that they don't know how to draw a yet.
It is said that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and today Xiao Chen can be regarded as believing this sentence.
Just when Xiao Chen was worried about the commander of the slave army, a herald ran over.
"King Qiqi, General Lin Hu is leading 50,000 horses and horses ten miles west of the camp, and he will arrive later!" When the herald had finished reporting the news, he got up and left.
But in the big tent of the Chinese army, a group of generals and bigwigs were dumbfounded. No! Didn't Lin Hu listen to the army led by Li Zhaoliang and send it? How did you get to us now? What is the situation!
Could it be that the generals are at odds? With the worst thoughts, Xiao Chen led a group of unknown generals towards the west gate of Fanta City.
Looking at the army slowly approaching in the distance, it was like a long dragon across the land. Countless flags, swaying their wonderful bodies in the spring breeze, grinning. Tens of thousands of strong men in red armor were armed with swords and shields, or carrying long ges or longbows diagonally.
It didn't take long for the vanguard of the army to come to the west gate of Fanta City, and Li Hu also arrived.
"The last general, Lin Hu, see the king!" Lin Hu quickly ran over and saluted.
Xiao Chen said expressionlessly: "Lin Hu, what's the matter?" Why did you come to our army with your army, Li Zhaoliang? Did you two make a fuss? ”
A series of questions immediately made Lin Hu dumbfounded. What's the situation? Is there anything wrong with coming by yourself? How can there be so many problems?
I was puzzled, but Lin Hu still replied truthfully: "King Qiqi, the last general, Li Zhaoliang, led 70,000 horses all the way to the north to attack. Along the way, I took four cities in a row before I came to Huanan City. After being informed by the general of the city's defenders, the last general knew that the king had led the army to Fanta City. The last general led these 50,000 people to run over! ”
Forehead... Well, we were wrong!
Xiao Chen coughed awkwardly twice, and then continued: "In that case, doesn't that mean that Li Zhaoliang is just south of our Fanta City?" ”
"Back to the king! Yes, but it's a little farther away. The last general set out from the city of Dingxing and marched south for several days before encountering a hostile city. In the next few days, the end will take several cities within a few hundred miles south of Huanan City. It stands to reason that we should now be in the northwest direction of Dingxing City, and the distance should be more than four hundred miles! ”
"Four hundred miles? That's a little too far, isn't it? Xiao Chen was shocked on the spot, you must know that the current Donglin County and Annan County of Beichen Kingdom are only three hundred miles long, and only more than a hundred miles wide.
"This... In fact, although the distance between them is about 400 li, the number of cities in the middle is not much. Hmm~ The last general came all the way to the south, knowing that Huanan City was only four hostile cities. Lin Hu looked relaxed.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. By the way, is Bruce here? ”
"Lao Bu! Boo! Boo! As soon as Lin Hu heard Xiao Chen's question, he turned his head and shouted loudly behind him.
After Lin Hu shouted a few words, he saw a guy wearing red armor, but no weapon in his hand, and a cauldron on his back ran out.
"See the king, the generals!" Bruce said with a look of courtesy.
Xiao Chen frowned fiercely, and then said in surprise: "Bruce? ”
Bruce nodded his head and admitted the fact!!
"What's the situation with you, is it fashionable for generals to wear firehead military uniforms now?" Xiao Chen asked with a little confusion.
Bruce swayed back and forth for a long time, his hands pointing back and forth, and his mouth half-cut and half-pulled. But none of the people around me understood it, everyone was from Earth, and they didn't understand Martian yet.
Seeing Bruce's embarrassed and overwhelmed back and forth, Lin Hu had no choice but to answer for him: "King Qiqi, what about this Bruce general, he accidentally did something wrong a few days ago, so now he is punished as a firehead for a few months." ”
"Eh, what a bad thing, the punishment is so severe!" Wang Ping's mouth next to him was faster than Xiao Chen's.
"Nothing, nothing!" Bruce said stiffly and awkwardly in the Chinese he had just learned.
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, he changed the topic with a righteous face: "King, what are you looking for me?" ”
Speaking of business, Xiao Chen also put away his smiling look and said to Bruce: "Let's go, let's talk about it after we enter the city." ”
Subsequently, the generals gathered here from the Beichen Kingdom followed Xiao Chen into Fanta City.
Entering the city lord's mansion, a dozen or so people found a stool to sit down, and then began to listen to the instructions of their own king. And Bruce quickly understood why his boss was looking for him, and after doing it for a long time, it turned out that his opportunity to make a career had come.
Under Xiao Chen's explanation, Bruce also understood the cause and effect of the whole thing. The Master of the Army has come up with a great idea for his boss, and this plan requires the use of a large number of servants. However, the boss of his own family was struggling to find a future who knew English to lead these servant armies to accomplish this great and sacred task.
So, he came to Fanta City at the most opportune time, and this opportunity to make a contribution was directly smashed on his head.
Bruce has always carried out his boss's orders to the end, not to mention that this order is related to his future. So, Bruce answered without any opinion. Although it penetrates deep into the belly of the enemy army, it looks quite dangerous. But that's just looking dangerous, in fact, I'm leading an army to deceive people.
However, unlike ordinary scammers, people cheat money, but they cheat the city.
Bruce's arrival made the whole plan perfect, and then a dozen people came to the hall for a small dinner.
The next morning, Zhang Han, Chen Zhi, Zhang Jian and other Beichen generals summoned 200,000 soldiers to the school grounds. Then the oath meeting began, and with so many armies gathered, the seventeen player alliances in the west, and the spies scattered in Fanta City naturally discovered it.
The 200,000 men and horses quickly assembled in the school field, and the soldiers lined up in neat columns, swords and flags.
After that, it didn't take long for the army to slowly drive out of the school field and head west. The long formation of the army is like a dragon, the flag covers the sky and the sun, and the yellow smoke billows all the way, which is very spectacular.
And just when Zhang Han led the army out of Fanta City, a strong sweat also ran out of a hut in the city.
As soon as he left the city gate, he ran quickly to the west. If Xiao Chen sees this, he will definitely be happy for a while, hurry up and report the news, this king will definitely play you like a monkey.
But why doesn't this spy have a horse? Is he going to run back to his lair like this?
Xiao Chen doesn't mind that spy, does he also want to study for a marathon and run underground to deliver news to his own country!
The 200,000-strong army that had set out head-on had already left, while the 100,000 men and horses in charge of the raid and the deception of the city could only wait until night fell before they could embark on the journey.
