Li Yunyi's side ran all the way, connecting the two cities. The White Tiger City is calm here, Ye Xiangfo has a defensive posture, the three cities have heavy troops, the walls are thick and the city is high, and all kinds of military and defensive ordnance are sufficient.

The Eastern Qi side knew very well that if it was to be attacked, it would be a hard battle, and it would not be able to be attacked in a short time, and it would suffer heavy losses.

The Eastern Qi side had already occupied such a large piece of territory, so the commander of the Eastern Qi ordered to stop the attack and stabilize the swallowed territory first. This kind of war between dynasties can't end in a short time, and if you want to become fat in one bite, you can only choke to death.

The commander of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, Baili Yuan, is in his fifties this year, the Grandmaster Realm, and leads the position of the Generalissimo of the Eastern Qi. This battle with Nanchu made him famous all over the world, the original Baili Yuan statement was not prominent, and the battle between Dongqi and Nanchu more than ten years ago was not led by him, but his father Bailifu.

His father died of illness eight years ago, and he got to where he is today step by step, and the promotion process was smooth, and he didn't encounter any ups and downs along the way, and he didn't have particularly dazzling achievements. Many people say that he relied on his father's residual power and support to climb to today's point step by step.

Facts have proved that the tiger father has no dog son, and Baili Yuan can sit in today's position, although it has something to do with his father, but he himself has real talent and learning, and His Majesty the Emperor of Eastern Qi is a wise man.

Guangyu City, more than a hundred miles away from White Tiger City, is a big city. Baili Yuan lives here, and the courtyard where he lives is not guarded by too many military guards, and it is empty inside, which seems very quiet and elegant.

He was not wearing armor, but a cyan robe, and he looked like a rich idler. He was in the study with his hands behind his back, looking at the map on the wall, he had been looking at it for more than an hour, and there was a middle-aged man in a black robe standing in the study, who didn't dare to say a word, and followed the map.

After another incense stick, Bai Liyuan looked away, and with a trace of worry in his eyes, he asked, "Lao Jin, there is no news from the dark soul side?"

The black-robed man arched his hand and said, "Dashuai, there is no return yet." Da Shuai...... What are you worried about?"

Bai Liyuan looked out the window and said, "Ye Xiangfo threw a piece of fat meat for us to eat, he must have asked for something." He is now holding on but showing no signs of a counteroffensive. Then his intention is obvious, to lengthen our battle line and cut off our food channel, this is a dignified and upright plan, and I will do the same. I didn't worry about anything, I just waited for him to make a move, and after he was sure of his means, I was able to fight back. ”

The black-robed middle-aged man nodded, he firmly believed in Bailiyuan's judgment, because Bailiyuan's judgment had never been wrong. He arched his hand and said, "Marshal, go and ask for it." ”

The black-robed man walked out, Baili Yuan continued to look at the map, and after more than half an hour, the black-robed man hurriedly walked in, his face a little solemn.

Bai Liyuan glanced over, the sadness in his eyes disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Lao Jin, don't be so flustered, the sky can't fall." I'm afraid that Ye Xiangfo won't make a move, but if he does, I'm not afraid. Let's talk about it, how many cavalry did Ye Xiangfo send, and where did they attack?"

"Handsome and smart!"

Lao Jin showed admiration on his face, and he said: "Great Marshal, I just received the news that Liufeng City has been lost, the army and people in the city have been killed, and all the grain and grass have been burned. In addition, there may be an accident on the side of Yingchun City, because the people of the dark soul over there have not been summoned for a day, and many of the spies arranged by the dark soul over there have disappeared. They estimated that the enemy's army was kept at more than 200,000 and not more than 400,000, all of which were cavalry. According to the deployment of military forces on Ye Xiangfo's side, they guessed that the cavalry should be composed of cavalry from the major vassal states of Southern Chu. Look, this is information from the dark spirit. ”

"Flowing Wind City?"

Baili Yuan took a piece of information and looked at it carefully, and after a while, he looked at the map, looked at it for a while, and said: "As I expected, Ye Xiangfo wants to cut off our grain route, and the cavalry of the major vassal states adds up to two or three hundred thousand. After breaking the Flowing Wind City, I went all the way to Yingchun City, and it is estimated that Yingchun City will not be guaranteed. Next, I will raid the two cities of Shama and Fuchun, and maybe even attack the Changtie City of my Eastern Qi. ”

Lao Jin looked at the map, his face became more solemn, and he said: "Dashuai, Shama and Fuchun have hoarded a large amount of grain and grass, if these two cities are lost, our army will have problems supplying food in a short time, and if Changtie City is lost again, our army will face the crisis of running out of food." ”

"Huh!"

Bai Liyuan smiled and said, "Since we have discovered it, there will naturally be no problem." Ye made a dangerous move to the Buddha soldiers, allowing hundreds of thousands of cavalry to penetrate deep into my rear, and I naturally had to swallow these hundreds of thousands of cavalry. It's a pity that these hundreds of thousands of cavalry are not the main cavalry of Southern Chu, but the major vassal states. Could it be that Ye Xiangfo wants to borrow a knife to kill people, and if we destroy these hundreds of thousands of cavalry with our hands, if they can win, by the way, the major vassal states of Southern Chu will also be swallowed?"

"It's possible!"

Lao Jin Shen thought so: "The layout of the battle before Guanye Xiangfo was one step and three steps. These cavalry should be the elite of the major vassal states, and once they are lost, the major vassal states will definitely be greatly damaged. In case they can win, the Southern Chu army will turn around, and all the vassal states will be easily destroyed. ”

"No matter!"

Baili Yuan said in a deep voice: "Pass my military order, let all the troops in Shama City evacuate, hide the grain and grass on the spot, don't worry about what can't be hidden, all the troops will go to Fuchun City to gather." Let the nearby armies also go to Fuchun City. If the enemy cavalry attacks, give me ten days to hold on to Fuchun City. In addition, let the armies of Yongle City and Guangfeng City rush to Changtie City as quickly as possible, so that they can not hold out. Also, you let the eight or nine grandmasters sitting on the western front of the country, including the grandmasters of Changtie City, take the flying beasts to Fuchun City. After the loss of Fuchun City, let those grandmasters not have to fight to the death and retreat to Changtie City. ”

Baili Yuan paused for a moment and continued to order: "Order, let Zhang Fengming lead 400,000 cavalry to chase and kill this cavalry, and at the same time let the 200,000 cavalry of the reserve battalion on the western front of the country go out to cooperate with Zhang Fengming." There are also fifteen grandmasters who are mobilized to Zhang Fengming, and you tell Zhang Fengming that if you can't swallow this cavalry, let him come to see him. ”

Lao Jin thought for a while and asked, "Marshal, the intelligence has not been fully investigated, so this is the time to send troops?"

"There's nothing to probe and not probe!"

Baili Yuan waved his big hand and said: "Since the dark soul is sure that the cavalry of the Southern Chu headquarters has not moved, the cavalry mobilized by Ye Xiang Buddha can only be the cavalry of the major vassal states, adding up to about 300,000. Give Zhang Fengming 600,000 cavalry, as well as the intelligence support of the dark soul, and occupy the area on our side. If he can't swallow 300,000 cavalry, then what's the point of his life? ”

"Whoa!"

Lao Jin thought about it and didn't say anything more. He is a staff member of the army, and his role is to fill in the gaps for Bailiyuan, since Bailiyuan has made a decision, he will not question anything, although it can be implemented.

Two hours later, ten cavalry detachments scattered out of the camp north of the city, and the target was not to the east, but to the north and south, but these cavalry ran for a distance, and all converged towards the east. After two more hours, the 400,000 cavalry gathered together and galloped in a straight line toward the east.

Although the cavalry on the Eastern Qi side was scattered out of the camp, such a large transfer still attracted the attention of the Southern Chu side, and the news was summarized one after another, and finally presented to Ye Xiangfo.

Ye Xiangfo was still in the City Lord's Mansion in White Tiger City, and after receiving the news, he bowed his head slightly and said: "Baili Yuan reacted faster than I imagined, and this time it is estimated that the main cavalry was dispatched, at least 400,000." ”

"Yes!"

There was an old man standing beside Ye Xiangfo, who was actually the new head of Chu Yu Pavilion, Zou Hui. Outsiders don't know about Zou Hui's secret coming here.

He said: "Guogong, Li Yunyi's side only broke through two cities, since Baili Yuan has reacted, it will be difficult for the remaining three cities to attack, Bai Li Yuan may have guessed the number of troops on Li Yunyi's side, and it is estimated that more than 600,000 cavalry will be mobilized to encircle and suppress." ”

"It doesn't matter!"

Ye Xiangfo smiled and said, "I don't know if Li Yunyi can break through the remaining cities, but the old man believes that he has the ability to bring back 300,000 cavalry." You send a military order to the past, so that he doesn't have to deliberately attack the remaining three cities, and try to hold off the cavalry that is going to encircle them, so that he can do whatever he wants. However, there is a premise that the military strength should be conserved as much as possible, and it should not be consumed too much. ”

"Uh......"

Zou Hui was stunned, Ye Xiangfo trusted Li Yunyi so much? That is the rear of the enemy, the number of enemy encirclement and suppression must be double or even several times, and let Li Yunyi adapt to the situation, which means that Li Yunyi can play as much as he wants...

He paused, his eyes shining, and he asked aloud: "Guogong, is it false that you sent Li Yunyi to cut off the grain route of Eastern Qi? The real intention is to divert the tiger from the mountain?

"There's such a layer of intention!"

Ye Xiangfo said: "Water has no normality, and soldiers are impermanent. No art of war can be fixed in form, and improvisation is the right principle. If Li Yunyi can break through the five cities, then the Eastern Qi army will be short of food, and we will launch a large-scale counterattack. If it can't be broken, Dongqi will definitely send cavalry to encircle and suppress, and our side can make another deployment. With hundreds of thousands of cavalry in Eastern Qi, we will be much more mobile, but there is not much difference in the military strength of the two sides, so this battle has to be fought slowly. Fighting, you must not be in a hurry, wait for the opportunity if you don't have the opportunity, slowly create opportunities, and when you have the opportunity, you can take a bite, reverse little by little, gather the general trend, and finally break the enemy in one fell swoop. ”

Zou Hui nodded and said with emotion: "The strong people in Eastern Shenzhou are like clouds, and there has always been no shortage of generals who are charging into battle. Handsome talents are very scarce, and they are like chess players for the handsome, one step at a time, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles, and their subordinates are still far from the realm of the national prince. ”

"Handsome is there!"

Ye Xiangfo said with a smile: "For example, Sima Yue and Ram Qiu are both handsome, but excellent handsome talents are sometimes born and need talent. That kid in Jingguo, the old man looks like a top handsome talent, this time he performs, if he performs well, we can slowly reverse this war, if he performs against the sky, we may be able to reverse this battle soon. ”
