Chapter 71: Wang Chen's Calculations (Chapter 1 to ~!) )

What the county town of Donglai County, which was being held, and the camp of the Yellow Turban Army that was surrounding, did not notice that when the old and weak ant annex attack had just been launched, several spectators watched the whole process on a mountain peak not far from the county seat and the camp.

Of course, for the Yellow Turban Army, which was dozens of miles away and did not have sufficient anti-reconnaissance and cavalry strength, it really did not notice the situation of the mountain peak twenty miles away from the camp behind them, and the county town surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army was almost completely surrounded, and it was even more impossible to pass through the blockade of the Yellow Turban Army camp and observe those few people who climbed the peak to observe!

Wang Chen, Poison Island Yanzi, Tai Shici and a few guards stood on the peak to observe the battle situation below.

The group did not even wear conspicuous armor and cloaks directly, but cut them in ordinary black and other colored cloths, and then simple but effective camouflage cloaks, allowing the group to leisurely observe the battlefield below!

……

"It seems that these Yellow Turbans still have some means......"

Seeing that the formation of the Yellow Turban Army was quite complete, and the means of retreating into the camp were also quite methodical, Wang Chen, who put down the telescope in his hand, looked a little solemn, but he still praised the lineup of the Yellow Turban Army.

If you are serious, the old and weak and the Yellow Turban thieves who were sent to death are not counted, but the performance of the Yellow Turban Army still amazes Wang Chen!

The regular Yellow Turban Army I just saw exceeded a thousand in number, and the equipment seemed to be okay, and there were even ten Yellow Turban wrestlers and dozens of cavalry, and the overall combat strength could definitely not be said to be weak.

What made Wang Chen pay attention to was that the performance of the more than 1,000 Yellow Turban Army, under the command of the commander who should be Bian Xi, whether it was pressing the formation as a supervising team, or slowly retreating back to the barracks after being ordered, there was already a hint of an elite and strong army, which was completely incomparable to the small number of Yellow Turban troops that encountered the county town before, or those scattered Yellow Turban thieves who were encircled and suppressed!

The gap between the two sides is like the difference between a new soldier and a veteran who has been on the battlefield, and even Wang Chen suspects that those new young troops pulled out by his command will be directly defeated by a thousand Yellow Turban Army face-to-face......

"The thief army is indeed good, but if it weren't for those old and weak people who were coerced and the Qin Du Lieutenant...... The county soldiers may not lose!"

Hearing Wang Chen's words, Tai Shici, who was on the side, put down the telescope in his hand in some surprise and explained in a low voice.

The facts are in front of him, Tai Shici can't do anything to refer to the deer as a horse, but he is still a little unconvinced, at least he is a little dissatisfied with another major factor in the failure of the county soldiers!

"Not to mention the fact that the county soldiers attacked and retreated, now the enemy army is surrounding the county town!"

Regarding Tai Shici's words, Wang Chen, who had already changed into a set of fish scale armor, didn't care too much, handed the telescope in his hand to the poison island man beside him, and then pointed to the Yellow Turban Army camp surrounding the county town and asked, "Ziyi, if it is according to your opinion, what is the situation of the Yellow Turban Army's camp?"

Facing Wang Chen's closer title, Tai Shici, who was also accustomed to it in the past two days, was not as polite as the first time, but looked at the Yellow Turban Army camp that stretched for several miles, with a cautious look on his face: "The thief army surrounds the county town, which is divided into the main camp and two side camps, targeting the three gates of the county town. And the remaining one of the city gates is leading to the sea, and the Yellow Turban thieves have not blocked it, but from time to time they will be intercepted by those Yellow Turban Thieves, and they can barely let the messengers of the county town sneak out, but the dispatch of the brigade of men and horses cannot be hidden!"

"The camp of the thief army is not impregnable, but the three camps support each other, the really elite soldiers are in the center of the camp, and the periphery is the old and weak and those thieves who take refuge, and the enemy general Bian Xiquan treats them as outcasts."

"What really matters is actually the thousands of headquarters in the thief army, if the county soldiers have not been damaged before, and there is a good general in command, it is good to say, but our current army is only five hundred, even if the enemy army is old and weak and those thieves occupy the majority, there are still tens of thousands of people...... If we insist on attacking head-on, we will probably be wiped out before we can rescue the county!"

After speaking, Tai Shici had a hint of hatred and helplessness on his face, but he didn't say anything false.

In the face of the Yellow Turban Army camp of tens of thousands of people, the rescue force of only 500 people, unless everyone in it is old and weak, and Wang Chen's 500 people are all top elites, otherwise the head of the battalion with tens of thousands of people is in the water!

Tai Shi Ci looked at the Yellow Turban Army camp and the five hundred reinforcements he found, and the gap was definitely not to that qualitative gap.

In the headquarters battalion and the two side battalions, the Yellow Turban Army, which has a total count of 10,000 people, the old and weak and the young and strong who are wrapped up occupy eighty percent, and the remaining Yellow Turban thieves with loose discipline are almost 10,000 people, and the truly elite Yellow Turban Sergeants are only a few thousand, and the comparison between the two sides is absolutely helpless - even if it is any side battalion, there are more than 10,000 people, and even if 500 people are full assault, it is impossible to defeat any side camp in a short time!

As for head-to-head battles......

Tai Shi Ci didn't mention this stubble at all, he was one of the later generals, and his vision had not yet reached that range, and at the same time, he believed that Wang Chen, the acting county lieutenant, would not be so stupid!

"Ziyi is right, even if it is a stealing camp, five hundred people will not be able to shake the overall situation, unless there is a ...... in the city to take care of it."

Wang Chen nodded, affirmed Tai Shi Ci's inference, and said the most reasonable speculation of the normal situation, but suddenly stopped talking, and shook his head at the same time as Tai Shi Ci.

What is the situation in the county town, Wang Chen knows it clearly now!

Counting on the "famous general" Qin Duwei who pretended to be sick, or which county guard with mediocre ability will take care of it in time, the risk of coming to the inside and outside is too high, maybe he won't play well and just mess up - looking at Tai Shici's expression, you know that if you want to rely on the county defenders to cooperate with each other, failure is not a small probability, but a very likely occurrence!

After all, there are only a few famous military generals in Qingzhou who can be remembered by Wang Chen, Tai Shici is now barely on his own side, and the enemy general Bian Xi is also one, and the defending generals in the county town are difficult to say!

Anyway, according to Wang Chen's opinion, he is really not optimistic about the loss of almost half of the county soldiers in the previous battle, and the rest are the county defenders who rely on the families of the major families and the young and strong people who stand on the city wall......

"So, sir, what do you mean?"

Hearing Wang Chen's words, Tai Shici asked cautiously.

As a messenger, Tai Shici is now barely a member of Wang Chen's command, but it is impossible to give orders directly, how to rescue the county depends on how Wang Chen acts!

"Don't worry! The county town must be saved, but how to save it is one thing!"

Regarding Tai Shici's inquiry, Wang Chen did not immediately explain, but said something mysteriously, and then looked in the direction of the Yellow Turban Army headquarters camp, and his slightly narrowed eyes looked extremely cold: "You must know that sometimes the benefits of 'many people' are very great, but it will also bring corresponding troubles!"

“……”

Wang Chen's words that didn't seem to have the slightest clue, Tai Shi Ci didn't know how to continue.

Standing beside Wang Chen, Poison Island Gentle, who had always maintained a quiet posture, looked thoughtfully at the direction of the Yellow Turban Army camp, but had a clue in his heart about Wang Chen's thoughts......

……

Later, Wang Chen, Poison Island Son, and Tai Shici, who walked down the peak, came to a valley on the edge of the peak.

The valley was distinctly remote, devoid of any human villages or inhabitants, and with the exception of a log cabin miles away that had long since been deserted, only the occasional wild beast nested here.

But now, in the valley that is not too big, hundreds of soldiers in armor have become the new masters here, and after expelling or hunting the nesting beasts, a temporary camp has been rebuilt, and with the help of the creek in the valley, hundreds of tents and stables for nearly a hundred horses have been built by the stream, and now except for the soldiers who occasionally sit down to rest and drink, no one dares to disobey the order to light a fire to cook—at this distance, hundreds of people are lighting a fire to cook, The Yellow Turban Army camp, which is not an idiot, will definitely find out that something is wrong!

Therefore, there was no fire in the temporary camp at all, many soldiers were dressed and sat and rested, and those cavalry even appeased their precious war horses from time to time, or took out high-end horse food such as cooked soybeans to feed the baby war horses......

"Your Excellency!"

Seeing Wang Chen, Poison Island and Tai Shici and his party coming down, Wang Leopard, who led the team to inspect, saw it as soon as possible, and then respectfully came up to salute Wang Chen.

"Hmm!"

Regarding Wang Bao's respectful salute, Wang Chen nodded and signaled that there was no need to be polite.

Unlike a month ago, after experiencing many small-scale battles and personally killing dozens of Yellow Turban thieves, Wang Bao now does not seem to have the pattern of the head of the family before, but reveals a kind of fierce and murderous temperament all over his body, and is definitely an excellent middle-level officer.

For example, now, managing the camp of more than 500 people, Wang Bao is already very handy, not only according to the study and practice of the military book to camp, but also the sentry and horse exploration arranged are also in order!

"Wang Bao, how is the trimming now?"

Wang Chen motioned to Wang Bao not to be polite, looked at the situation in the camp, and nodded to the saluting soldiers before opening his mouth to ask Wang Bao who was standing on the side.

"My lord, it's been repairing for most of the day!"

Hearing Wang Chen's question, Wang Leopard, who followed Wang Chen, was in high spirits, and reported the news to his family master very seriously, and said affirmatively: "The soldiers have enough strength, and they can now be put into battle......

"Don't be in such a hurry! Let the soldiers use dry food and have a good rest, the battle will have to wait for a while!"

Wang Chen did not give an order immediately, but waved his hand to let Wang Bao tell those soldiers to rest well.

Wang Bao was a little puzzled by the repair order issued by Wang Chen, and even guessed his master's plan, but he didn't ask anything again, so he took people down and ordered, so that the soldiers who had just arrived in the valley during the day just today were well prepared and waited for the battle order that Wang Chen might give at any time.

Not only did Wang Bao and the soldiers below have guessed, and began to silently use the prepared dry food, and began to sort out their armor and blades, Poison Island and Tai Shici were also obviously aware of Wang Chen's plan to make a big move......
