Chapter 1010: See Through
Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 inforeadx;? The formation of the Ningnan army was rushed and killed by the wind cavalry, and the soldiers scattered and fled, but how could the two legs of people run past the four legs of the war horse, the cavalry dispersed, chasing and killing the Ningnan soldiers who fled in a hurry, and the screams of crying father and mother on the battlefield became one,
Led by Wang Lan, the 10,000 soldiers of the Ningnan Army who attacked Nancheng secretly attacked the city, and finally fled back to their own formation, only about 100 people remained.
On the first night of the battle between the two sides, the eldest grandson Huai'an sent two corps to attack the north and south cities of Qingcheng respectively, but the results were all defeated, two corps commanders, one was captured, one was killed, and the soldiers of the two corps, a full 20,000 people, were almost wiped out.
The eldest grandson Huai'an thought that his tactics were very clever, and invested eight corps of troops in Xicheng to carry out a fierce attack to attract the attention of the defenders in the city, and then divided a small group of strange soldiers, and unknowingly attacked the north and south cities, and caught the defenders in the city by surprise.
But where did he think that his tactics were all in Shangguan Xiu's calculations and the like, and so on, Shangguan Xiu himself couldn't remember how many times he had used them, and he didn't remember how many times he had defended against them.
The eldest grandson Huai'an, a fledgling general, wants to take advantage of Shangguan Xiu, a veteran of a hundred battles, how easy it is to talk about it.
The remnants of the Ningnan Army, who fled back to their own formation, also brought back the bad news of defeat.
Hearing that Wang Lan only escaped back with more than 100 people, and the eldest grandson Huai'an, who was lying on his side in the Chinese military tent with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up from the soft collapse.
The one hundred and tenth Ningnan Army who came back, the highest rank was a battalion lieutenant, the battalion lieutenant had knife wounds on his chest and back, and he was covered in blood.
"What are you talking about," the eldest grandson Huai'an strode to the front of the battalion lieutenant, grabbed him by the collar, lifted it vigorously, and asked sharply: "Your corps, just come back to your hundred or ten people, what about Wang Lan, where is Wang Lan now, let me come to see this king,"
"Lord Wang, general, he ...... General, he was martyred......" The battalion lieutenant said with a crying voice and a trembling voice,
"What," the eldest grandson Huai'an's hand holding the collar of the battalion lieutenant slowly loosened, the general who was still alive just now died in a blink of an eye, the battalion lieutenant choked up and said: "The general took me and others to attack Nancheng, but when we arrived in Nancheng, we fell into the ambush of the Feng Army, in Nancheng, they were all cavalry of the Wind Country, and the brothers didn't even have a chance to fight back, so they were scattered by the cavalry, many brothers ...... Many brothers were trampled to death by the enemy......" In the end, the battalion captain could not cry,
How could this be, how could the wind army do an ambush in advance in Nancheng, could it be that the wind army would not be able to predict the prophet and calculate in advance that it would send troops to attack Nancheng,
Thinking of this, he shuddered and asked urgently: "What about Dong Xu, how is Dong Xu's corps now?"
A general stepped forward and whispered, "Lord Wang, there is no movement in Beicheng now, General Dong may ...... Probably waiting for the time to get started,"
"You can't fight, hurry, send someone over immediately, inform Dong Xu, withdraw the troops immediately, go quickly," the Feng army has obviously calculated all the actions of its own side, if Dong Xu's first department goes to sneak attack again, it will only follow in the footsteps of Wang Lan's first department,
But the eldest grandson Huai'an never expected that Dong Xu's department had long ceased to exist, and they were killed by hundreds of shadow flag personnel in the woods, and none of them escaped back.
After seeing the general take the order and leave, the eldest grandson Huai'an took two steps back like a deflated ball, sat back on the soft collapse, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The battle of Qingcheng was far more difficult to fight than he expected, and now he couldn't help but start to wonder if the wind army was intentionally doing it if his side was progressing so smoothly in the early stage of the battle, and continuously conquered the outer defense line of the Feng Army.
But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not right, the wind army was not without resistance in the outer defense line, just in the first battle between the two sides, the wind army lost six or seven thousand people, will the wind army use the lives of so many soldiers to show weakness?
He was thinking to himself in his heart, and the second bad news came,
"Report-" A spy ran in from outside in a panic, and after entering the Chinese military tent, the spy knelt down on one knee and said urgently: "Lord Wang, something is wrong,"
"What's wrong, say it quickly," Huai'an, the eldest grandson who had just sat down, stood up again like a spring,
"Our army's logistics supply team was attacked, and the grain, grass and baggage transported by the logistics team were ...... ...... all."
"What's going on?"
"All robbed,"
"Ah," the eldest grandson Huai'an took half a minute to come back to his senses, and he screamed, "Who kidnapped it?"
"The Wind Army is the logistics team of our army that is secretly attacked by the main Wind Army,"
"Fart," the eldest grandson Huai'an kicked on the spies' chest, gritted his teeth and said: "The main force of the Wind Army is now in Qingcheng, the main force of the Wind Army you are talking about, is it not possible to fall from the sky, come here, drag this thief who lied about the military situation out for me and behead him,"
"The prince spares his life, the villain's words are true, the prince spares his life......"
The sound of begging for mercy stopped abruptly outside the camp tent, inside the camp tent, the eldest grandson Huai'an's face was gloomy and ugly, and the surrounding generals lowered their heads one by one, and they didn't dare to breathe.
If Wang Lan's entire army was annihilated, it was a basin of cold water poured on the eldest grandson Huai'an, then the attack and robbery of the logistics supply team was a blow to him.
Without the assistance of artillery, relying only on the tactics of crowds to rush upwards is not only too large in casualties, but also very limited in threat to the defenders.
Now he urgently needs the artillery from the rear to be transported up, and use the artillery to blow up the city defense of Qingcheng, so as to start a face-to-face white-knuckle battle with the wind army, so that the advantage of his own people can be fully reflected, but at this time, the logistics force had an accident, and his mood can be imagined, as if he was being burned by fire.
This is not the last bad news, after more than half an hour, the herald who went to Beicheng to convey the general's order hurriedly ran back,
He went to the woods where Dong Xu was hiding, but he didn't see anyone in the woods at all, more precisely, he didn't see any living people, in the forest, there were corpses all over the ground, and the blood was about to stain the ground red, and the soldiers of the entire corps died in the forest outside the north of Qingcheng.
The ensuing bad news made the eldest grandson Huai'an dizzy for a while, his body shook twice, and he sat back on the soft collapse, his original gloomy face had now become pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his cheeks.
Just on the first day of the battle, the entire 200,000 soldiers on their side lost 50,000 people, which is not like a war, but more like ordering the soldiers to jump into the abyss, the bottomless abyss,
Qingcheng, inside the city gate tower,
Shangguan Xiu was lying on a recliner tiredly, with his eyes closed, seemingly sleeping, but his fingers were rhythmically tapping slowly on the chair, and next to him, a chair was also placed, and sitting on the chair was the eldest grandson Feifeng,
Jiang Seal and other generals stood around the square table, which was covered with maps, and people were making tactical discussions while comparing on the map.
The reason why Shangguan Xiu placed Changsun Feifeng in the city gate tower was that he was worried that if she was left in the city, someone would take the opportunity to rescue her, and second, Shangguan Xiu also wanted her to see with her own eyes how the 200,000 Ningnan Army was wiped out, so as to hit Changsun Feifeng's psychological defense, and third, and the most critical point, if you really can't resist the attack of the Ningnan Army, you can push Changsun Feifeng out and use her to blackmail the Ningnan Army to suspend the attack and win a respite for yourself.
At this time, the eldest grandson Feifeng sat on the chair in an orderly manner, but her eyes and ears were not idle, staring at everything around her, and listening attentively to the deployment of the wind army,
The dark flag spy was like a marquee, in and out of the city gate tower, and a dark flag spy came to Zhang Xiao's advance and handed him the note.
Zhang Xiao glanced down at the note, bent down, and said to Shangguan Xiu: "Your Highness, the 10,000 enemy troops who attacked Beicheng have now been wiped out, and the enemy commander has been captured by Lord Duan Qi and brought back to the city,"
Hearing his words, Shangguan Xiu didn't react, his fingers were still rhythmically beating on the recliner, and he only hummed softly, and the generals of the Jiang Leopard were all happy, and made marks on the map, recording the locations and numbers of Ningnan Army killed.
The eldest grandson Feifeng naturally heard Zhang Xiao's words, her face changed slightly, and her hand shrunk into a cuff clenched into a fist, a corps, tens of thousands of soldiers, were all killed, and they didn't even hear the sound of battle, the shadow flag of Shura Hall was really terrifying,
It didn't take long for another secret flag spy to bring in a note and hand it to Zhang Xiao, who looked at it, smiled leisurely, bowed his head and said: "Your Highness, the 10,000 enemy troops who attacked Nancheng are now all wiped out, and the enemy commander was killed by General Wang Xu,"
"Hmm," Shangguan Xiu still replied lightly,
Jiang Leopard smiled and said: "Your Highness is like a god, tonight the people of Ningnan are really as expected by His Highness, and they divided their troops to attack the southern and northern cities,"
The other generals also nodded one after another, gave a high thumbs up, and praised in unison: "Your Highness is wise, our army will win,"
Shangguan Xiu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at everyone, and scolded with a smile: "Flamboyant tongue, all patting their consciences and saying, am I wise, or the enemy commander is too stupid, such a simple tactic of attacking the east and west, can't you see it, if you can't even see through this, then don't fight in the army, it's better to go home as soon as possible to farm and hold the child,"
Hearing this, all the generals of the Feng Army present laughed,
Of course, they can see through the tactics of the Ningnan people, attacking the city at night, which is not conducive to attack and defense, the Ningnan army is still in Xicheng here to do an overnight siege, you have to say that the Ningnan people are forced to be anxious and want to fight with their own side, the actual situation is not like that at all, after most of the night, the offensive of the Ningnan army is thunder and rain, like a decent general attack, not launched once, Ningnan people want to contain their main force here in Xicheng The intention is too obvious, it is difficult not to be seen through,
The generals knew the tactics of the Ningnan people, but they didn't say anything, and gave all the credit to Shangguan Xiu, but Shangguan Xiu was not greedy for merit, and broke their minds in one word.
Many generals are afraid that the ability of their subordinates is stronger than their own, and they do their best to take all the credit on themselves, so as to show their extraordinary ability, but Shangguan Xiu is an outlier, but whenever he gets merit, he is as much as possible to his subordinates, even if he does not have any merit, he doesn't care, follow such generals to fight, how can the generals below not be full of energy, the morale of the generals is up, and the soldiers at the bottom will naturally follow the morale of the brave to win, the two armies fight, the fight is morale, a morale-full, united army, can sweep the enemy army, invincible, which just brings greater and more merit to Shangguan Xiu,
is not greedy for merit, it is precisely the biggest greed, Shangguan Xiu's merits and prestige that no one can match in the Wind Country, this is how it has been accumulated,
