Chapter 14 Planning
"What kind of weapon, it's so powerful?" Feng Yi asked in surprise.
"That weapon didn't have a name, we all called it the Heavenly Machine Crossbow, and after the military advisor gave us the blueprints, it took us thousands of craftsmen to make it, and we worked day and night to create ten pairs, and each pair required hundreds of people to control. However, that power, a crossbow shot, can directly pierce those invulnerable eagle barbarian cavalry. “
"The battle lasted for half a day, it was very fierce, and in the end, the Eagle Barbarian cavalry suffered more than 1,000 casualties, which was an unprecedented defeat, so they had to evacuate. However, although we were victorious, we suffered more than 5,000 casualties, and it was only a miserable victory. “
"If there is no military advisor and the Heavenly Machine God Crossbow, I'm afraid it won't just be as simple as five thousand dead and wounded. The Eagle Barbarian cavalry is simply a massacre for us, and the people in the city are panicking, plus there are countless cavalry outside the city attacking the city, and the city is broken sooner or later!"
Feng Yi was even more angry in his heart, and couldn't help but think of Sister Nu Ai, without her recommendation of Mr. Guangli, I'm afraid that Daxia would not be able to support it until now?
It's just that I don't know if she is exposed now by Yu Hanxun's side?
"Is there any news of Nu Ai?" Feng Yi couldn't help but ask.
When the second marquis heard this, a strange look appeared on his face, and after a while, he still said: "According to the report from the spies, Yu Hanxiao accepted the Nine Sons Demon Mother as a concubine a few months ago, and held a wedding and a swearing-in meeting in Yuge City at the same time. ”
"Nine Sons Demon Mother?" Feng Yi reacted instantly, now that Nuqi is dead, the only one who can bear this name is Sister Nu Ai. She fell into the clutches of the devil, and she must have lived like a year, Feng Yi only hated that she had no strength and could save her immediately.
The second marquis knew the young master's thoughts, so he didn't say much about Nu Ai, but said, "This is not over yet." Seeing that it was not possible to attack from the sky, he directly wanted to use the tactics of the sea of people to level the gate of Lu Zhongcheng, he first ordered 100,000 cavalry to attack, and killed us under the city wall, the blood flowed like a river, and the corpses were piled up, almost higher than the city wall. “
"However, our Great Xia Army is not a coward, and they resist stubbornly one by one, but they just don't let them get up. “
Seeing that the strong attack could not work, Yu Hanxiao had another treacherous plan, and even put the ordinary people of many tribes in the Western Regions in front, while their army followed behind, using the people as shields. Many of these tribes have a lot of ties to our Great Xia, and when we saw them in the city, we were furious, and almost all of them asked to go to war, even if they fought for their lives, to save them. “
Feng Yi nodded when he heard this, the reason why Great Xia is now at a disadvantage, and there are still many rangers and tribes who come to defect, is because of the tyranny of the Cold Country, and Great Xia has won the hearts of the people. These people seem ordinary, but they represent the expectations of all the anti-cold forces for Great Xia, and they must be saved.
However, the military advisor still ordered that the city gate should not be opened, and violators would be executed. The second marquis sighed.
"What?" Feng Yi said in shock, "Are all the people dead?"
The second marquis did not answer, but said: "The order of the military advisor seems to be unkind, but it is indeed the only way. Later, the spies came to report that tens of thousands of cavalry had been ambushed around the people, and once we left the city, not only could we not save them, but even we would definitely not be able to come back. “
Feng Yi was silent when he heard this, but in this way, Daxia's reputation will inevitably fall, and Yu Hanxiao's plan is really killing two birds with one stone.
Later, the second marquis said some things after that, all of which were extremely tragic, but relying on Mr. Guangli's strategy and the hard work of everyone in Great Xia, he still held Lu Zhongcheng and waited until the arrival of Fengyi.
As soon as they entered, they saw wounded soldiers all over the ground, the bloody spirit lingered, and many people stood up to treat the wounded, and Lu Zhongcheng had entered the state of all the soldiers.
However, when everyone in Daxia saw the arrival of the young master, they cheered one after another, and even tears appeared in their eyes, and now Feng Yi has become their backbone, and the arrival of Feng Yi completely calmed the infinite fear and panic in everyone's hearts, and even the fear on the faces of ordinary people disappeared completely, and they all stood up and shouted at the young master.
Feng Yi sighed in his heart, comforted the people, and arranged for Dai'e and Yingsleeve to stay, and quickly walked into Tianchi Palace. Now that Great Xia is in danger, we have to discuss countermeasures quickly.
Tianchi Palace is already the location of the high-level meeting of Great Xia, including the lords of various countries such as Bo Mi and Ji Tianmu, as well as generals such as the Great Marquis and the Second Marquis, as well as the leaders of the rangers such as Bai Fu, who have been discussing here almost day and night, of course, sitting in the center is Mr. Guangli, who is now the military advisor of Great Xia. His prestige is sky-high, second only to Fengyi.
As soon as Feng Yi entered, everyone stood up one after another and said in surprise: "Your Royal Highness the Young Master?"
Feng Yi waved his hand to let everyone sit down and asked about the situation. Everyone spoke one after another, and after listening to Feng Yi, he realized that the situation was far worse than he imagined.
This time, Yu Hanxiao brought nearly 300,000 troops, in addition to the most elite Jiuli barbarian cavalry, there are countless beast soldiers sent by Yu Hanxun, the momentum is huge, although the first few attacks have failed, but their main force is still there, and the next time they attack, they will inevitably be more ferocious and unstoppable than the previous ones.
"Lord Bomi, when I came, I saw that the war had affected many people in the city, and at this time, I should pacify them. If the people in the city were panicked, the army would not have the heart to fight. Feng Yi said.
Bo Mi and the others nodded, they naturally knew this truth, so they said: "Young master, the old minister will send someone to protect the people." “
Feng Yi asked everyone again, and the generals were filled with indignation, and they all said that since there was no place to escape, it was better to simply go out of the city to fight, and the loudest voices for the battle were the rangers such as the Immortal Dead and Bai Fu. One of them is not afraid of death, the other has been hiding for many years, cowering, and today they were beaten to the door of the house by others, and they were very worn, and the resentment in their hearts was difficult to express in words.
Feng Yi was silent, he couldn't help but look at the eldest marquis, at this moment, Ji Shisheng didn't speak, just watched quietly.
And his gaze has been staring at the sitting military advisor, Mr. Guangli!
Feng Yi knew in his heart, turned his head, saluted Mr. Guangli, and said, "Strategist, thanks to you in the past few months, we have been able to resist the army of the Cold Country. I wonder if you have a way to retreat from the enemy?"
After hearing this, Mr. Guangli was silent, he lowered his head, and the whole person shrank in his robe, and he couldn't even see his expression clearly.
He didn't speak, but the generals on the side couldn't help it, and shouted one after another: "Your Royal Highness the young master, why don't you need to talk about it." The military advisor was reluctant to send troops before, just because the young master was not there, and now that you are back, it will naturally be time for the decisive battle, we have been impatient to wait for a long time, open the city gate, and let those cold country turtle grandsons take a look at the Tianwei of our Great Xia!"
But no matter how much the crowd shouted, Mr. Guangli just didn't speak.
Feng Yi knew that he had a conspiracy, and it seemed that he didn't say it now, but he was afraid that he would disagree with everyone and cause public anger.
"Strategist, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"
After a while, Mr. Guangli let out a deep voice, and there was no joy or anger in his tone, as if he was just saying something inconsequential.
"Young master, everyone, there is only one sentence below, avoid the enemy's edge and attack him unprepared!"
When the people heard this, they were puzzled. They all thought to themselves: "What does the military advisor mean by this?" but some people have already heard that the military advisor is still reluctant to fight, and just wants to retreat into the city. One by one, they were angry, but in front of the young master, it was not easy to show it.
Feng Yi knew everyone's thoughts and asked, "What does the military advisor mean, or can't he fight a decisive battle with the Han Kingdom?"
"Exactly!" Mr. Guangli cherished the words like gold.
"What does it mean to be unprepared?" Feng Yi asked, in fact, this was not only his doubt, but also the doubt in the hearts of everyone present.
"I can't say it now, we'll see in half a day!" Mr. Guangli said.
When everyone heard this, there was an uproar, although everyone was used to the problem of the military advisor, but at this time, they still had to sell the guanzi, and everyone was a little displeased.
Feng Yi sat down and said, "Okay, just wait for half a day!" He vaguely felt that the military advisor must be secretly planning, but the time has not yet come.
When the generals saw that the young master was like this, it was not easy to have a seizure, so they could only sit down with their temperament and wait anxiously one by one.
Half a day later, just when everyone was about to attack, several spies suddenly rushed in from outside the hall, knelt down and said: "See His Royal Highness the young master, return to the military division, the southern barbarian king Huandou really led the army to attack Xirong." “
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised. The first strange thing is that they are all in danger, why did the military advisor send someone to inquire about Xirong's news? The second strange thing is that although Xirong and Nanban have split, they are both Jiuli clan after all, so why did the two of them actually fight?
Feng Yi glanced at each other with the eldest marquis, the second marquis and the others, their hearts were beating, and they vaguely understood what the military advisor wanted to do?
This time, Yu Hanxiao led a large army to attack, and Daxia was definitely not an opponent, if he rushed to battle, it would be tantamount to looking for death. But the enemy is menacing, and for no reason he will not retreat. At such times, the only way to find a way is to go beyond the battlefield.
And this breakthrough, the war between Huandou and Xirong, is the best opportunity!
Although Xirong is loyal to the Han country, after all, it is too far away and has always been outside and is not taken seriously. If we can subdue them this time and help them defeat Huandou, it will definitely be a great help. After all, no one dares to underestimate Xirong's Gu poison.
What's more, after repelling Huandou, the gateway to the Southern Barbarians is in front of him, and Yu Hanxiao will never give up his base camp in order to attack Great Xia.
Feng Yi admired in his heart, at this juncture of life and death crisis, he could have such a plan, which was beyond ordinary people!
Feng Yi explained slightly, everyone was surprised, and then they were amazed, they were also famous generals in the army, so they naturally knew the value of this strategy.
"You don't have to be too happy first, if you want the plan to succeed, you have to take the initiative!"
