Chapter 1251: Variables

readx;? Chapter 1251 Variables

Along with Jun Qiming, there were thousands of soldiers of the Ningnan Army. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info they have no choice but to defect with Jun Qiming, otherwise, the burning Jieya Town will become their burial place.

As for the Yong champion of the Jun family, it is very good, and none of the remaining dozens of people are willing to defect. Shangguan Xiu also did not order them to be put to death, but temporarily imprisoned them.

The third war against Ningnan is different from the previous two, this time it is a battle of reunification, and it is impossible for the Feng army to kill all the people of Ningnan, for the sake of long-term peace and stability after reunification, the Feng army must be benevolent, even if it cannot resolve the hatred between the two countries, at least it cannot add new hatred.

Shangguan Xiu himself is not a brutal person, his brutality is conditional, mainly depending on whether he can meet the needs of his country.

If the bloody killing can be beneficial to his country, he can choose to slaughter without hesitation, whether the target of the slaughter is the enemy army or ordinary people, if the killing is not beneficial to the country, but is harmful, of course he will try his best to avoid it.

If the ruling body of the Wind Country is compared to a huge machine, then Shangguan Xiu is the strongest screw on this machine, everything he does is to maintain this machine from destruction, and all the political reforms and scientific and technological innovations he has made are to maintain the perfect and long-term operation of this machine.

Looking at Shangguan Xiu's style of governance, he is a typical reformist, but in his bones, he is an unswerving conservative.

The gendarmerie led by Shangguan Xiu successfully attacked Jieya and burned the rear materials of the main force of the Ningnan Army, which was undoubtedly worse for the Ningnan Army, which was already short of supplies.

The lack of materials had an impact on the Ningnan Army at the beginning, but with the gradual intensification of the Feng Army's offensive and the fierce fighting being extended day by day, the disadvantage of the lack of materials in the Ningnan Army was gradually revealed.

The first to show weakness was the artillery. The ammunition of the artillery is becoming more and more scarce, and the artillery of the Ningnan Army, which used to have the capital to fight against the artillery of the Feng Army, is now muted and placed on the battlefield, which has completely become a frightening ornament.

After the artillery ammunition was tight, it didn't take long for the infantry to also start to run out of ammunition.

In the past, the ammunition of the infantry was unlimited, and the ammunition of paper shells was distributed unlimitedly, as long as the soldiers could survive on the battlefield, as long as they could continue to fight, they could have as much ammunition as they wanted.

But now, the Ningnan Army even has to make a quota of paper shell bullets, from the beginning of the daily distribution of 10 bullets per person, gradually reduced to 8 bullets per person per day, 5 bullets, and even finally became only 3 shell bullets per person per day.

The shortage of ammunition has dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Ningnan army, but when even the military rations have to be rationed, the morale of the Ningnan army has completely fallen to the bottom.

Without ammunition, the soldiers can still bite the bullet and fight with the attacking wind army, but they can only eat two meals a day, one meal, and let the soldiers go to the battlefield hungry, which is too fatal.

The breakdown of logistical supplies has led to a rapid decline in the combat strength of the Ningnan Army and a sharp drop in morale, and if it continues like this, there is a danger that the entire army will collapse. Under such circumstances, the Ningnan army, which was fighting in the city-state of Volo, planned to secretly send a batch of supplies to Duki to temporarily alleviate the urgent needs of their own army.

The 200,000-strong army commanded by Ye Nantian firmly restrained Cai Huang's Fifth Army and Hailey's Jinsk City-State Army on the frontal battlefield, and secretly sent a corps to avoid the main battlefield of both sides, transported a large amount of materials, and went all the way south, intending to enter the territory of Duki unknowingly.

This supply team of the Ningnan Army, composed of a corps, successfully avoided the eyes of the Wind Army, and without the Fifth Army and the Jinsk City-State Army undetecting, they went all the way south and entered the territory of Novi City.

Here in Novi City, it's not too far from Dookie. But the Ningnan army never dreamed that here in Novi City, there was an ambush army, led by Assino Walde, the city-state army of Solan.

Of course, there is a reason why the Solan city-state army is here.

In the early stage of the battlefield of Volo, with the participation of the Ningnan army, the army of the city-state of Solan was defeated and collapsed, and the army of 100,000 suffered nearly half of the casualties.

Later, the Wind Army entered the war, and the Solan City-State Army finally found the backbone and followed the Wind Army and the Jinsk City-State to launch a counterattack against the Ningnan Army.

However, in the first confrontation between the Wind Army and the Ningnan Army, the Solan City-State Army, which was a friendly army, was defeated by the Ningnan Army.

The rout of the Solan city-state army also greatly affected the morale of the Feng army and the Jinsk city-state army, Cai Huang immediately made a decision, ordered the withdrawal of the army, took the initiative to retreat, and gave up this head-to-head confrontation between the two sides. The first battle was like this, which can be described as a disadvantage.

After the war, Cai Huang didn't blame Asino, after all, he was not his subordinate, but the son of the lord of the city-state of Solan, and he couldn't say anything about him.

However, after this battle, Cai Huang also saw that the cavalry of the Solan city-state may be very powerful, but the infantry is really a rabble, completely vulnerable, and his own side is fighting side by side with the Solan city-state army, which is too involved, which is equivalent to carrying a big burden.

He simply divided the army of the city-state of Solan led by Asino and let him lead the army to attack the city of Volo.

Volo City is the main city of the Volo City-State, and has now been recaptured by the Volo City-State, taking advantage of the opportunity of their own side to contain the main force of the Ningnan Army, if they can capture the Volo City in one fell swoop, it can also greatly boost the morale of their own soldiers and deal a heavy blow to the morale of the enemy.

Asino promised well in front of Cai Huang, patting his chest and making a guarantee that he would inevitably capture Volo City in one fell swoop.

But when Asino led his army north to the city of Volo, he suddenly changed his mind. Volo City is the main city of the Volo city-state, once it is captured by its own side, can the Ningnan army fight back?

If the Ningnan army counterattacks, it will not be able to hold it at all, and then it will be a loss of troops, an army of 100,000, and now there are only about 50,000 people left, where can it withstand another big defeat.

The son of the lord simply ordered the army to go south and attack Novi instead.

First of all, Novi City is not the main city of the city-state of Volo, and its strategic and political significance is not so great, even if it is captured by the city-state army of Solan, the Ningnan army may not bite it like a mad dog. Secondly, there is a treasure in Novi City, there is a large amount of jade in it, and the capture of Novi City can make the Solan City-State army make a lot of money, and again, Novi City is very close to Duki, if you are in danger here, you can ask for help like Shangguan Xiu as soon as possible, it can be said that safety is guaranteed.

After weighing the pros and cons, Arsino decisively chose to abandon the city of Volo and attack Novi instead. However, in order to explain the past to Cai Huang, he divided his troops, divided 10,000 troops, took all the heavy weapons in the army, and continued to march towards Volo City. Anyway, no matter whether he can defeat Volo City in the end, he did send troops to fight, and the Wind Army can't blame him for anything.

He himself led the main force of 40,000 Solan city-state troops, and deliberately changed his military uniform and went south in civilian clothes, intending to hide the eyes and ears of the Ningnan army and the city-state of Volo, and suddenly appeared under the city of Novi City to take the enemy army defending the city by surprise.

If possible, he could also send people into the city first, and come to meet with the outside.

Assino's self-inflicted cleverness happened to bring him and the supply team of the Ningnan Army into a confrontation near Novi City. With such a coincidence, I don't know if Ning Nanjun is too unlucky, or Aceno is too lucky.

If the supply team of the Ningnan Army did not appear near Novi City, Asino might not have fought it, and there was a high probability that he would try to avoid it, after all, he had already been frightened by the Ningnan Army.

The supply team of the Ningnan Army appeared near Novi City, and escorted a large number of carriages, all of which were full of large boxes, which created an illusion for Aceno, and the Ningnan people had carried all the jade in Novi City, and it is estimated that not even a piece of jade could be found in Novi City.

One of the reasons why Asino came to attack Novi City was to take a fancy to the real money here, and now that the people of Ningnan want to carry away all the treasures in the city, what is the point of him occupying such an empty city?

The generals under him also gave him advice, and all the strategies of everyone boiled down to one word, fight!

Don't look at the Ningnan army's team is very large, but most of them are carriages, not many troops, at best there is only one corps, and their own side uses four corps to fight one corps of Ningnan people, even if the difference in combat strength is huge, there is no reason why it cannot win.

What's more, the reason why the soldiers are willing to follow him into the city-state of Volo to fight is because they want to make a lot of money, if this war is over, their soldiers have not caught any loot, and after returning to the city-state of Solan, the soldiers' support for him will also be sharply reduced.

The opinions of the generals below were listened to by Asino, and he finally made up his mind to fight this battle with the Ningnan army.

With no artillery on board, the Solan city-state army was unable to engage the Ningnan army at long distances. Arsinoo is also very smart, at least he knows how to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

He first sent thousands of soldiers to quietly detour to the front of the Ningnan army, and then these thousands of people disguised themselves as the people of the fleeing Woluo city-state and took the lead in approaching the Ningnan army.

In terms of physical appearance, there is no difference between the city-state of Solan and the city-state of Volo, both are of the Besa ethnic group, and their language is also in Besa.

These thousands of Solan city-state troops were dressed in civilian clothes, and while running towards the ranks of the Ningnan army, they screamed again and again: "The wind army is coming!

The chief general of the Ningnan Army is named Wang Cheng and is a corps commander. Suddenly seeing the many people of the city-state of Volo running in front of him, he frowned secretly and asked the subordinates around him who were proficient in Besa, "What are they shouting?"

The translator hurriedly said: "General, the people seem to be shouting, the wind army is coming!"

"Wind Army?" Wang Cheng frowned, and muttered in his heart: Where did the Wind Army come from? According to his own report, the Wind Army is on the main battlefield in the middle of Volo, and I have not heard that the Wind Army has transferred troops from Duji into the city-state of Volo!

The appearance of the wind army in front of their own route is not a trivial matter, what they are escorting now is the supply of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the Duki battlefield, which is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and there can be no slightest difference.

Wang Cheng pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Bring all the fleeing people in front of you, and ask where the Feng army appears and how many troops there are, and our army is ready to hide and avoid!"

"Yes, General!" everyone around them agreed.

There was not the slightest doubt about the identities of these exiles, but Wang Cheng could not be blamed for negligence, according to the report of the Ningnan army, there should indeed be no enemies in the south of the city-state of Voro.

The Wind Army and the Jinsk City-State Army were both engaged in the main battlefield with General Zuo Ye Nantian, while the Solan City-State Army was disgusted by the Wind Army and let the Wind Army deliberately take it away to attack Volo City.

Wang Cheng is not an immortal after all, how could he not know the prophet and calculate in advance that the army of the city-state of Solan who was going to attack Volo City would divide the main force and quietly go south to attack Novi City.

This is the variable on the battlefield, no matter how accurate the intelligence is, it is not as fast as the variable.

The Ningnan army gathered the fleeing civilians together and asked them for news about the Feng army. As a result, after these fugitive people approached the Ningnan Army, they suddenly showed a short knife hidden in their underwear and poisoned the officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army who were close at hand.

The performance of the Solan city-state army in firearms battles was not very good, but it was a good hand at hand-to-hand combat, and these thousands of people were carefully selected by Asino to be masters of hand-to-hand combat, and as soon as they made a move, they killed a large part of the Ningnan army.

At the same time that thousands of Solan city-state troops suddenly attacked, Asino led a main army of more than 30,000 people, and suddenly appeared from the left and right flanks of the Ningnan army and the rear flank, and launched a siege on it.
