Huang Rong hurriedly ran to Dongfang Haotian's tent.

Dongfang Haotian, who was studying the military map and deducing the sand table, saw Huang Rong's anxious face.

So, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "Rong'er, what happened, you are so anxious." ”

Huang Rong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That day, when the barbarian tribe moved south, I felt a little suspicious, so I asked Tianluo's people to pay attention and followed. ”

Just now, I received a message from Tianluo's flying pigeon, and the barbarians turned out to be looking for reinforcements.

About five hundred miles away from us, there is a barbarian tribe called Blackwater.

There were more than a million people, and there were 200,000 armored warriors.

This time, the Heishui tribe has gathered all 200,000 troops, plus 20,000 troops from Nanshan and other tribes, and is ready to wash our Shaoyang City in blood.

Please prepare early!"

Two hundred and twenty thousand barbarians?

Even Dongfang Haotian, who had become very calm, couldn't help but be shocked after listening to it.

This was the largest military operation of the barbarian army in nearly two decades.

Compared to that, the pressure on him from the 100,000 bandit army was ten times greater!

Even if his own Great Xia Corps was one against the barbarian army, it would only be able to offset the 70,000 barbarian army.

The other three infantry regiments are all newly recruited new troops, and they don't have much combat effectiveness at all.

I'm afraid it's not even as good as the armies of other places in Qingyang Mansion, let alone compared to the powerful barbarian army.

As for the Tianwei Battalion and the Wushuang Battalion, there are only 2,000 veterans who can be reused, and their combat effectiveness is at most comparable to that of the barbarian army.

The other 3,000 new troops have not even had time to match the war horses, and they have no combat effectiveness at all.

This is a war with a huge disparity of more than 100,000 troops!

Even if it is protected by a city wall, it is more than lucky.

It seems that he has slaughtered the barbarian tribes a little too hard.

It completely aroused the wrath of the barbarian tribes.

Fang Haotian came back to his senses, his tone was serious, and he asked, "Is the source accurate?"

For such a big thing, it has to be figured out whether it is right or not.

Huang Rong Zhengse said: "The Tianluo members who went with me are all first-class martial arts masters. They arrested some barbarians, tortured and interrogated, and the information they obtained was absolutely true. ”

"Herald!" Dongfang Haotian shouted.

"My lord, please command!"

"The order is to go down, and all the centaurs will return to Summer City immediately, and there must be no mistake. ”

The Southern Wilderness Jungle is not able to stay, and can only return temporarily.

"Yes, my lord!"

The herald hurried out and informed the soldiers of the battalions.

Under the rapid march, in less than four days, everyone rushed back to Xia City.

......

As soon as he returned to Xiacheng, Dongfang Haotian summoned Xu Shu, Pan Feng, Hu Yanzhuo, Huo Quzhi, Guo Jing, Mu Yingxiong, and Mu Ying.

After everyone arrived, Dongfang Hao genius said: "Tianluo came to report, the barbarians have gathered an army of 220,000 and are coming to our Shaoyang City. ”

"Huh?" As soon as these words came out, everyone present was taken aback.

Two hundred and twenty thousand troops is an astronomical number for the current Shaoyang City.

Dongfang Haotian summoned the generals, and his mood was better.

Mu Yingxiong, an indigenous resident, had a worried face.

Born and raised in Qingyang Mansion, he naturally knew the combat effectiveness of the barbarian army, as well as their ferocity.

In the face of 220,000 barbarian troops, the horror of the entire Shaoyang City will be a river of blood.

His first reaction was to say: "220,000 barbarian troops, we can't win no matter what, even if we defend the city, we can't hold their offensive."

The lord should hurry up as the lord of Shaoyang City to send a letter to the capital to ask for help, and ask the lord of the mansion to immediately organize reinforcements to support. ”

Dongfang Haotian sighed and said with a wry smile: "Not to mention the book, plus it takes a long time to gather reinforcements and deploy military funds, during this time, the barbarian army has already broken through Shaoyang City and washed it in blood."

With the semi-autonomous state of Qingyang Mansion and the current gloomy situation, do you think the Mansion Master will send reinforcements?"

After listening, Mu Yingxiong's face was ugly, like a deflated ball.

At this time, he realized that Dongfang Haotian's words were the truth.

Qingyang Mansion is basically a chaotic situation of separate affairs, how can the mansion owner spend effort to support.

Huo Quzhi was suddenly arrogant, and said: "Lord, no matter how many barbarian troops he comes, there is a general, and he will ensure the safety of Shaoyang City." ”

Mu Yingxiong said: "General Huo, the barbarian army is not comparable to the bandit army, the combat effectiveness is strong, even if you can fight against 10,000 barbarian troops alone, it is a drop in the bucket."

The last general suggested that we withdraw from Shaoyang City. ”

Hearing this, Pan Feng's fiery temper instantly came up, and he said angrily: "Mu Yingxiong, your grandmother is a bear, twice the enemy army attacked, you suggested running away as soon as possible, spineless guy." ”

"Soldiers, it is glory to die on the battlefield. ”

Even Mu Ying blushed a little for her father.

She is not afraid of death, but enjoys the feeling of fighting on the battlefield and fighting on the battlefield.

Mu Yingxiong was struggling.

Strictly speaking, he wasn't really a soldier.

It's only been a few months since I joined the army.

His philosophy has always been to keep Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, and not to fight a war that he knows is invincible.

Dongfang Haotian said in a deep voice: "Shaoyang City is the foundation of our forces, if it is washed in blood, even the people will be gone, and it will become a dead domain, and our foundation will be destroyed."

A long time of hard work was in vain.

Therefore, Shaoyang City must not be given up unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

At this time, Dongfang Haotian set his eyes on Xu Shu, the only adviser in his camp.

I saw him, always confident, smiling and silent.

Dongfang Haotian was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "Seeing the relaxed look of the military advisor, is there a corresponding strategy?" ”

Xu Shu didn't answer directly, but asked: "Has the lord heard the story of 'encircling Wei to save Zhao'?" ”

Dongfang Haotian was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have naturally heard this story. ”

"Wai Wei to save Zhao?"

Mu Yingxiong and Mu Ying are not from Huaxia, so they naturally look confused.

During the Warring States Period, Wei attacked Zhao.

The state of Qi used the method of besieging the capital of Wei to force Wei to withdraw its troops from Handan, and saved Zhao.

Encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao is also a very wonderful kind of resourcefulness in the 36 strategies.

The brilliance of it lies in the way of reverse thinking, with the method of seeking the near and far on the surface, bypassing the superficial phenomenon of the problem, and solving the problem from the source of things, so as to achieve a magical effect of victory.

At this time, Dongfang Haotian suddenly realized for a while, and said: "The meaning of the military advisor is that we should send an army to attack the base camp of the Blackwater Tribe?"

Xu Shu stroked his mustache and said with a smile: "Yes, it was the surprise attack on the base camp of the Blackwater Tribe that forced the barbarian army to return, so that Shaoyang City could be saved." ”

"This plan is also the only way to solve this crisis, otherwise, when the 220,000 barbarian army attacks, we can only destroy the city and die, or abandon the city and flee. ”
