Volume 3 Good and Evil Temporarily All Depend on Man Chapter 164 Defeated
The Central Route Army and the Eastern Route Army did not choose to march together, but adopted the method of attacking from both sides, one north and one south, and the troops were already under Jiyang City.
The two armies each had 30,000 people, and they were all stationed about ten miles away from Jiyang City, which was just the right distance to ensure that they could approach Jiyang City within a few breaths when they launched a charge, and they would not be attacked by the Jiyang City garrison.
Of course, the garrison of Jiyang City could rush to their camp within a few breaths, but neither of these armies seemed to care.
After all, they have two large armies, if the Lunan army really dares to go out of the city, the other army will occupy Jiyang City as quickly as possible and cut off the back road of the Lunan army.
Although Tang Yi had dispatched Wu Neng and Qi Sheng back to defend Jiyang City, neither of the two armies had yet returned.
Qi Sheng's three thousand elites are not a problem, after all, they are far away, and they have to pass through the enemy-occupied area, and it is normal to come back late, but it is strange to Tang Yi that Wu Neng, who is not too far away, has not been able to come back at the specified time.
Wang Meng had already tried several times on Xiaobai, but the enemy had already blocked the surroundings of Jiyang City with a super-large bed crossbow, and even Xiaobai's speed could not fly out of the city.
Don't say it's a little white, the enemy army doesn't know what is arranged underground, and even the ground shield technique of the narrow ghost can't leave the range of Jiyang City, and they are now completely trapped in Jiyang City.
Moreover, the two armies have been fighting for three days, but they have never attacked, not even provoked, and they have trained in the camp every day, as if the nearby Jiyang City is not their enemy, but an ordinary city.
"Do you want to encircle the point to send reinforcements?" Tang Yi stood on the city wall and frowned slightly, the other party's behavior was too much like a siege point to send reinforcements, but it was just ......
Does the Wanluo Realm have such a tactic as encircling the point to send reinforcements? It seems that I have never heard of it, nor has it ever used such a tactic in that classic battle, and the soldiers of the Wanluo Realm prefer to attack by force.
Moreover, there are no reinforcements in Jiyang City, only the 10,000 troops sent to Lu Xi to hand over, and the 10,000 troops that Wu Neng has not yet brought back, and in addition, there are only 3,000 elites of Qi Sheng.
These can indeed be regarded as reinforcements, but all the horses of the Central Route Army and the East Route Army are here now, and they only surround the north and south gates, and there are no enemy troops in the east and west gates.
With the speed of these warriors, it was indeed enough to rush to the two city gates within a few breaths, but the army in the city also had enough time to welcome Wu Neng Qisheng into the city, and the prerequisite for encircling the point to send reinforcements was not established.
'What are these people waiting for so long to attack the city?'
After Tang Yi closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, he said to the tested gang leaders and newly promoted generals beside him: "We can't wait any longer, we have to test it once." ”
"Big brother, how can you be tempted?" It was still Wang Meng who spoke, only he had the best relationship with Tang Yi here, so he was the only one who was the most suitable to ask questions.
Now there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses in Jiyang City, of which 10,000 are surrendered by the Western Route Army, and these people are not loyal enough to be entrusted with the heavy task.
It's just that in this extraordinary time, there seems to be no other way than to believe in these people.
After Tang Yi glanced at the people around him, he said, "Gang Master Xu, Gang Master Zhao, the two of you will take twenty people who break the Dao Realm, and then allocate 15,000 soldiers and horses for you, and you will go to attack the Eastern Route Army."
The rest of the people and I went to harass the Northern Route Army.
Remember, you don't have to fight hard, just figure out the purpose of the enemy's insistence.
WANG Meng,
After the war breaks out later, you immediately ride Xiaobai out of Jiyang City and go to Luxi to see what the situation is, why Wu Neng hasn't brought anyone back until now.
Remember, be sure to wait until the fight has started, when the enemy has no time to control the oversized bed crossbow, and if you can't do anything, it's important to save your life. ”
Gang Leader Xu, Gang Leader Zhao and others were the people who performed better in this siege battle, and these people could already be trusted, so Tang Yi entrusted the heavy task to the two of them.
Of course, the main reason is that Tang Yi's subordinates have no generals available, so they can only use these Dao Breaking Realm helpers, at least these people can suppress the army and keep the rebels from rebelling.
After assigning the task, Tang Yi immediately gathered the 20,000 troops, of which he divided the 18,000 Lunan army and the 7,000 surrender army to the two gang leaders, and he took the 5,000 surrender army himself.
As for the remaining 2,000 Lunan troops, they will cooperate with several other generals to defend Jiyang City, in case the war is unfavorable, the army can still retreat to the city in time, otherwise if Jiyang City is lost, the army will become a homeless lonely ghost.
After assigning the task, the two armies immediately left the city.
However, the two armies did not choose to go out of the city from the north and south city gates, but took the east and west city gates separately, and after Tang Yi led the 5,000 troops out of the east city gate, they immediately rushed all the way to the camp of the North Route Army.
When Tang Yi was puzzled, after the army reached a distance of three or four miles outside the North Route military camp, the North Route Army did not seem to have reacted, and still hid in the military camp to cultivate with peace of mind.
Although he had doubts, Tang Yi would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and after asking his soldiers to evacuate at any time, he immediately led the army to charge.
After the army roared into the camp tent of the North Route Army, the North Route Army reacted and began to show sporadic resistance, which was not at all as good as an army of 30,000 people, even if it was an army of 300,000 people.
Seeing this, Tang Yi immediately ordered people to wave his army to cover the kill, snatched all the super crossbows and bows, and captured the people of the Northern Route Army as much as possible.
The battle went smoothly and ended very quickly, and after just over half an hour, the battle was over.
The battle between the two gang leaders on the other side ended faster, and when Tang Yi was still cleaning the battlefield, the two gang leaders over there rushed over in person.
"Mr. Tang, this ...... Shall we win?" The two gang leaders still had disbelieving expressions on their faces at this time, the Western Route Army was also too weak, their 15,000 army only covered up in one wave, and the other party didn't even dare to resist and ran away.
But instead of leaving behind the oversized bed crossbows, the two men smashed them to pieces.
Tang Yi didn't think that he could get that thing in advance, so it was difficult to say anything about the two of them, but fortunately, the Northern Route Army still got seven or eight bed crossbows.
It's just that this bed crossbow doesn't seem to be the same as the super large bed crossbow, it's not very big, and it's hard to imagine that it can stop Xiaobai with the power of this thing.
Except for these bed crossbows, which were not too big, the rest of the supplies were not looted in the camp of the Northern Route Army, and not even a famous general was found in the entire camp.
They are all ordinary soldiers whose realms are not but the two realms of Dao Heart and Dao, and occasionally there are a few people who have attained the Dao realm, but they are very rare and very rare.
said that this was the invincible Northern Route Army, and Tang Yi didn't believe it when he killed him, so he transferred those people who had attained the Dao realm to inquire about it, and only after asking did he know that these two battalions of soldiers and horses were the Northern Route Army and the East Route Army?
The two routes, with a total of 60,000 troops, had already been broken into pieces and entered Luxi to search for Tang Yi in Luxi
's 20,000 troops went, and they were just the leading party of the major cities in southern Lunan who defected to the Northern Route Army, and were placed here to confuse Tang Yi and others.
After listening to these people's words, Tang Yi clenched his fists vigorously and paced back and forth irritably.
Originally, he was supposed to defeat the soldiers with a stratagem, but now it is good, and he was deceived by the Northern Route Army and the Western Route Army, and he only found out after three days of killing Luxi.
"The army immediately went to Luxi, after all, the enemy has 60,000 troops, and our army is likely to be wiped out, so this time it is not forced, everyone volunteered. But ......"
Tang Yi glanced at everyone expressionlessly, and said coldly: "If we wait for the end of the war and our side wins a complete victory, those who have not gone there will not be qualified to share the fruits of victory."
Of course, Tang can't give him privileges to those who are willing to go, but he will definitely give him the greatest benefit within the scope of the wolf soul law. ”
Tang Yi left the crowd, walked to a large open space outside the North Route Army camp, and said in a loud voice: "Brothers, if you want to go, come out and gather immediately!"
"General Wu saved my life, count me as one. ”
"Brothers are in crisis, how can we not go to the rescue?
"Everyone is gone, if we don't go, doesn't it seem that we are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Lunan's 8,000-strong army stood up without the slightest hesitation.
Although the Western Route Army was a little hesitant to surrender troops, thousands of people still came out, and the number was still increasing.
"Hey, is it only them who have men in Lunan, and we Luxi are all cowards?"
"That's it, we can't be like the group of cowards in Luzhong, they have nothing to boast about except relying on their own cultivation to be high, the gang is bigger, and the relationship with Confucianism is closer?"
"What's the matter, only you Luxi and Lunan have men, and Luzhong is all cowardly?
In the end, out of the 20,000 troops outside the city, only more than 1,300 people chose to stay, and the rest all decided to follow Tang Yi to Luxi.
And those who broke the Dao Realm, except for the four who were unwilling to go, the rest of the thirty-two people in total all decided to follow Tang Yi to Luxi.
Tang Yi, the remaining 2,000 troops in the city, did not take it with him, but let them continue to hold on to Jiyang City.
The army left Jiyang City, but after walking forty or fifty miles, three or four ragged deserters rushed in, and as soon as the deserters saw the Lunan army, they immediately rushed in crying.
"Mr. Tang, General Wu has been defeated, completely defeated. In just over an hour, the 20,000-strong army was wiped out.
When we escaped, the enemy army was in pursuit, and the two generals Wu were afraid that they would ...... Even...... It's also more auspicious!"
The 20,000 army was wiped out? Tang Yi frowned slightly, the strength of the 20,000 army may not be very strong, but with Wu Neng and the two of them leading, can it really be defeated so completely?
"Mr. Tang, let's ...... Do you want to go to Luxi?" asked a gang leader beside Tang Yi in a low voice.
If Wu Neng's army has been destroyed, then even if the 20,000 people go, it doesn't seem to be of much use, and the strength of the 20,000 army is not as good as the 20,000 troops under Wu Neng's command.
"Come on! These people are enemy spies, quickly take them down to military law!"
Tang Yi is not a ruthless person, but he also knows that if this matter is indecisive, if he does not wait for the Northern Route Army to attack, the morale of the 20,000 troops will be scattered, even if they retreat to Jiyang City, they will not be able to hold the city.
