In his heart, Lin Haotian himself doesn't like to be with the Yan and Red armies, which will make him feel constrained, and at the same time, he will lose his dominant position.

After saying goodbye to Ren Tianxing and Xuanyuan Fang, all the generals under Lin Haotian were puzzled, and asked him why he agreed to Ren Tianxing so easily and continued to divide his troops to the west.

Lin Haotian smiled indifferently and said: "It's not a big deal to touch the You army, if you can fight it, you can fight it, if you can't fight it, you will rescue, if no one comes to help, we will retreat, there is always a way! If we can really hold back the You army and create convenience for the westward advance of the Yan and Red armies, it is not a good thing, after all, the four-nation alliance is a whole, and the number of You troops killed and injured in this attack is not the key, the key is to see if we can directly smash Huaiyang and eliminate the court of You in one fell swoop." ”

The Jin army and the Yan-Chi coalition army, which had just converged in Juan City, quickly divided into two routes and continued to advance westward under Ren Tianxing's proposal.

The Yan-Chi coalition army advanced into Xinfeng County, while the Jin army penetrated Guping County.

Guping County can be called the Loess Plain area, dry, hot, rivers and water sources in the territory are extremely scarce, as far as the eye can see, everywhere you look is a flat fire, all that comes into view is the yellow and bare land, not even a little green can not be seen.

Due to the harsh conditions, although Gupyeong County is large, it is sparsely populated, and there are only a handful of towns in the territory, so it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a barren land.

The Jin army often rushed for a day or two in Guping County, but they couldn't even touch a village, but fortunately, the information of the Jin army's spies was timely, and the water source provided by the whole army was relatively sufficient. Otherwise, if you march in Guping County, you will die of thirst.

In the process of marching, the generals of the Jin army have been worried. Guping County is really too flat, and it is very difficult to find a small hill, once you meet with You's army, you can't even find a place to retreat and be dangerous.

Three days after the Jin army entered Gupyeong, they finally saw the county's first city, Dongguseong.

According to the report of the Jin army spies, the population of Donggucheng is less than 80,000. The defenders are less than 10,000 people, and now when they look at it, the Jin army is a little dumbfounded.

Donggu Castle is said to be a city. In fact, it is similar to a larger town, and the outer city wall is not made of stones, but made of loess, and the height is probably less than two zhang. Such a wall. It is estimated that everyone can push it down with a single push.

Donggu's city defense is equal to nothing, but the defenders inside are not ambiguous at all, that is, they have not surrendered, nor have they run, and the You army of less than 10,000 people is all standing on the earthen wall, with arrows wound, knives out of sheaths, and waiting for the battle.

After watching the situation in Donggu. Lin Haotian and all the generals under his command were happy, this kind of weak and windy small town. It is enough to send a corps formation.

Jin Cheng took the initiative to propose to Lin Haotian that the task of attacking Donggu City could be handed over to the Fifth Army Corps. Lin Haotian didn't think about it, and nodded in agreement on the spot.

Without the assistance of the First Army, Jin Cheng did not dare to be careless, and sent five corps to storm Donggu City from the front.

In terms of the ability to fight alone, the Fifth Army was far inferior to the First Army, but at this time, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and the 50,000 soldiers of the First Army charged forward in unison, with the momentum of swallowing Donggu City in one breath.

Under the onslaught of the First Legion, the You army suffered heavy casualties, and the city defense of thousands of people soon collapsed, and at the same time, the first legion's rushing car broke the gate of Donggu City, and a large number of soldiers of the First Legion entered the city.

I thought that the battle would end here, but the first legion that entered the city quickly retreated in disgrace.

Just when Lin Haotian and Jin Cheng, who were watching the battle, were puzzled, they heard the shouts in Donggu City, and countless people of You Guo who were armed with knives, guns and sticks came out of the city to kill.

Among the people, men and women, old and young, and even women, they slashed and slew the soldiers of the First Legion with short knives or daggers in their hands.

How could the First Legion ever see such a fierce people? Coupled with the large number of opponents, they were caught off guard for a while, dizzy, and frightened, and fled from Donggu City with rolling and crawling.

Seeing this, Jin Cheng's face couldn't be hung up, he was a dignified central army, and he was beaten by the people in a small city to lose his armor, which was a great shame.

He immediately ordered his generals to lead five more corps to meet the soldiers in front, and no matter what, he had to take Donggu City.

But without waiting for the soldiers under his command to take the order, Lin Haotian stopped him, and then said to Jin Cheng: "Jin Cheng, it is a pity that the people who are so strong and have such a strong temperament are killed all!"

Lin Haotian knew that no matter how fierce the people of Donggu were, they were not regular troops after all, and they could be caught off guard by the First Legion, but if the Tenth and Fifth Legions showed their true skills, I am afraid that none of these people would survive.

After that, Lin Haotian smiled, looked ahead, and said, "The You army in the city is almost dead, you order the first army to retreat, and the rest of the matter will be solved by me." ”

Jin Cheng stared at Lin Haotian in confusion for a moment, and finally nodded to the generals around him, instructing them to withdraw their troops, and then, he asked, "How do you plan to subdue these Diao people?"

Lin Haotian was happy and said: "How to appease Youren, I don't know how to appease Youren, but there is someone who is much more powerful than me!"

Jin Cheng knew who the person he was talking about was, it was Hong Hao, who helped Jin Guo successfully subdue hundreds of thousands of people.

Lin Haotian first sent the Jin army to return all the people of You who rushed outside the city back to the city with a sharp arrow array, and then repeated the old trick and sent Hong Hao again to persuade the people of You to move to Jin.

In his mind, the conditions in Guping County were so bad, there was a world of difference between them and Jin Guo, Hong Hao's persuasion should be very smooth, but things were the opposite.

Hong Hao entered the city under the protection of the Jin army, and tried his best to convince a single person.

In fact, it is also easy to understand that the poorer and more isolated the place, the narrower people's horizons will be. Compared with the people of Canglin County, the people of Guping County have never seen the prosperity outside, nor do they know the prosperity of the world, and the people here have lived in their own one-third of an acre of land almost all their lives, and have very little contact with the outside world. Now that they are leaving their hometown and going to the distant and unknown kingdom of Jin, people's fear is far greater than their yearning.

Hong Hao said wildly. But it couldn't resonate with people at all, and the means of coercion and inducement were also used, but people were not moved at all, and in the end there was really no way, he could only withdraw from the city and return to Lin Haotian.

After listening to Hong Hao's reply, Lin Haotian's face immediately turned cold. The first is that Qi Honghao is not doing things well, and the second is that the people here don't know what to do.

If it had been before, he might have ordered the slaughter of the city on the spot. But now he won't do that, slaughtering this city today, tomorrow all the people of You will have to hate the Jin army to the bone, and then try to persuade You people to move to Jin. There is no possibility.

He suppressed his anger. waved his hand to Hong Hao, and said with a smile: "I failed to convince the people here, it is not Mr. Hong Hao's fault, it is because they are short-sighted, and they don't know what to do." ”

Seeing that the adults did not blame themselves, Hong Hao also breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed and retired.

After he left, Lin Haotian sent an order to the generals. Enter the city at once, and put martial law on the whole city. If there is a resistance, the main thing is to disperse, and when it is absolutely necessary, no killer is allowed.

The golden generals took the order, led the armies, and rushed into the city like a whirlwind.

The Jin army of 200,000 people almost filled the small Donggu city in the blink of an eye, and during the period when the Jin army entered the city, there were naturally people who resisted desperately, but their resistance was insignificant in front of the army of 200,000.

Soon, the swift Jin army controlled the whole city, and the streets and alleys in the city were all under martial law, and the city lord of Donggu City was also captured by the demon warriors at home. Then, Lin Haotian and 200,000 Jin troops also entered the city.

The 200,000 Jin troops all entered Donggu City, and there were no streets in the city anymore.

Lin Haotian went directly to the City Lord's Mansion, in Donggu City, the City Lord's Mansion was the most luxurious building, but even so, it was just a few large earthen houses built in a larger courtyard.

The interior of the City Lord's Mansion is not bad, at least all kinds of home furnishings are readily available. Lin Haotian sat down in the lobby of the main room, and after sitting down, he shook his clothes, the dust was flying, and the yellow sand and gravel fell around his body.

Lin Haotian had just sat down in the City Lord's Mansion not long ago, and before he had time to take a sip of tea, at this time, Shao Lin hurriedly walked in from outside, saluted Lin Haotian, and hurriedly said, "My lord, there is an urgent military situation!"

"What's wrong?" Lin Haotian looked at Shao Lin and asked slowly.

"My lord, I just got the news that Chen Bo, the general of You Guo, has led 400,000 You troops into the territory of Guping County. Shao Lin walked up to Lin Haotian and whispered with a solemn face.

When Lin Haotian heard this, his face remained unchanged, and he didn't seem surprised at all, he shrugged his shoulders and said lightly: "The soldiers will come to block, the water will come to cover the earth, and the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road! This time, we will have a head-to-head confrontation with the Central Army of You Guo!"

From the bottom of his heart, Lin Haotian really wanted to fight an evenly matched decisive battle with You Jun to repay the humiliation of You Jun sweeping the Jin Kingdom and thwarting the Chifeng Army at the beginning.

At this time, Shao Lin said: "My lord, we should ask for help from the Yan-Chi Alliance Army and the New Red Army immediately, so that the armies of these three countries must rush to Guping to reinforce and assist us." ”

Lin Haotian didn't refuse again, nodded and replied, "Okay! I'll pass the book to Liegong." He said so, but he didn't think so in his heart, and he didn't think that the armies of the Yan, Chi, and Xinchi could really rush to Guping to reinforce him.

Of course, in order to reassure the generals under his command, he still wrote letters to Ren Tianxing, Xuanyuan Fang, and Song Hao respectively, asking the three armies to join forces to help as soon as possible.

Sure enough, but the development of things was exactly the same as Lin Haotian expected, his letters were sent to the Yan-Chi Alliance Army and the New Red Army respectively, and the replies received were different, but the meaning was the same, that is, they could not come to help in a short time.

Ren Tianxing and Xuanyuan Fang's reply was that the Yan-Chi coalition army was attacking Wuyi City in Xinfeng County, and the defenders in it were very numerous, with nearly 100,000 of them.

Song Hao's reply is that the grain and grass consumed by the Jin army before were very huge, and now the new Red Army is waiting for a batch of new materials to be transported from the Red Army, which is related to the overall logistics support of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, which is extremely important, and the New Red Army must be escorted in person, otherwise there will be an accident on the way, and the Four Nations Alliance Army will be in danger.

All in all, each army has its own excuses and has important things to do. It is impossible to get out of it and rush to Gupyeong-gun in a short period of time.

After reading the replies of the three people, Lin Haotian didn't say anything, but Shao Lin on the side was already angry. There was a gold star in front of him, and he almost broke out and cursed.

He looked at Lin Haotian and muttered, "The alliance of the three kingdoms is originally one, but how can the three kingdoms of Yan, Chi, and Xinchi be selfish to such a degree?"

Lin Haotian said with a smile: "Although the three kingdoms of Yan, Chi, and Xinchi will not be able to save us from death, they will never rescue us too timely. Fighting with the main force of the You army is not child's play. Our own injuries are inevitable, and instead of this, it is better to use us to consume each other with You Jun first. When the two sides are almost fighting, the three armies will come to clean up the mess, so that they can save their own troops. It can also greatly wear down the You Army and our Jin Army. It's a triple win. If I were one of those, I would do the same!"

He knew that for the Four-Nation Alliance, You Guo was the enemy, but for the Yan, Chi, and Xinchi Kingdoms, how could Jin Guo not be the enemy in the future?

"My lord, instead of waiting for the You army to attack, we should make an attack. In this way, at least the initiative can be taken. It can also surpass You Jun in terms of morale. Shao Lin asked what Lin Haotian meant.

"Well! Since this is the case, our army will take the initiative to attack and fight a tough battle with You's army!"

Lin Haotian was not as nervous as Shao Lin, and there was no fear of the enemy in his dictionary, at this time, the war between the two sides was in the middle, Lin Haotian's body was in turmoil, and his blood began to boil and hurt.

Under Lin Haotian's order, the Jin army left Donggucheng and continued to march westward, preparing for a decisive battle with the Central Army of Youguo, which was coming in reverse, in Guping County.

But to Shao Lin's surprise and Lin Haotian's great disappointment, You Guo's central army deliberately avoided the route of the Jin army's westward advance, and instead ran from Guping County and Xinfeng County to Canglin County.

You Jun's sudden diversion was something that Lin Haotian and even Ren Tianxing, Xuanyuan Fang, Song Hao and others did not expect.

In addition to the Jin army led by Lin Haotian, the Three Kingdoms Alliance is unwilling to fight head-on with the main force of the You army, and conversely, why is it not the case with the You army?

You Guo's general Chen Bo also made careful considerations, the Jin army and the Yan-Chi coalition army were divided into two routes, advancing together, of course he could choose one of them to fight, but if he thought about it carefully, no matter which coalition army he chosen, the battle would not be easy to fight.

There is a Jin army in the Jin army, which is famous for its courage and good fighting, and it was famous for fighting Vajra, and it also successfully resisted the invasion of millions of coalition troops at the beginning, and its combat power was not at all below the You army.

Although the combat power of the Yan army may not be stronger than that of the You army, it is well-equipped, there are many large-scale combat equipment, and the overall coordination ability is also strong, and it is good at doing clan warfare.

In the confrontation with these two coalition forces, Chen Bo was not sure of victory, and he chose to choose, and he chose the New Red Army.

First of all, the strength of the New Red Army is the weakest, and if it fights with it, the battle will be much easier to fight, and secondly, the New Red Army is extremely cruel to the Youren, killing innocents indiscriminately, and doing all kinds of evil in Youguo, and the soldiers of the You Army also hate Anshun in their hearts, but once they gain power, they will intensify their revenge on the New Red Army of Youguo.

Due to these considerations, Chen Bo decided to take a risky move, avoiding the Jin army and the Yan-Chi coalition army, and inserting Canglin between Guping and Xinfeng counties, and directly attacking the new Red army that was cowering in Canglin County.

Chen Bo's use of troops can really be called incredible, and he is extremely bold.

Between the two counties, it is easy to be attacked from both sides by the Jin army and the Yan-Chi coalition army, and once the two armies attack from the north and south, the 400,000 You Central Army will be wiped out.

But in fact, it turned out that Chen Bo was right, the internal intrigue and contradictions of the four-nation coalition army had no coordination at all, for the You Central Army between Guping County and Xinfeng County, the Jin army did not pay attention, and the Yan-Chi coalition army did not pay attention, and the mighty 400,000 You army passed smoothly under the noses of the Jin army and the Yan-Chi coalition army, like a knife, straight into Canglin County.

By the time the New Red Army got the emergency military information, the Central Army of You led by Chen Bo had also entered the territory of Canglin County and was like a whirlwind, approaching the camp of the two armies.

Hearing the news of the sudden attack by the You Army, Song Hao was panicked, and the two of them still didn't understand that the main force of the You Army was supposed to be fighting with the Jin Army? Why did it suddenly appear in Canglin County? Could it be that it fell from the sky?

I don't understand it, Song Hao is not Lin Haotian, and he doesn't have the courage and confidence of Lin Haotian to dare to go head-to-head with the 400,000 You army.

The two urgently sent a letter to Lin Haotian, Ren Tianxing, and Xuanyuan Fang, asking them to withdraw as soon as possible to rescue the New Red Army.

The gold and water take turns, and they turn so fast. The current New Red Army is simply a copy of the previous Jin Army, rescuing everywhere, not daring to defeat the You Army.

After receiving the distress letter from the two of them, Ren Tianxing scoffed, rubbed a ball casually, and threw it away. Compared to this, Xuanyuan Fang seemed less ruthless, Ren Tianxing's attitude made him frown, and asked, "Doesn't Brother Ren plan to rescue the New Red Army?"

"How to save?" Ren Tianxing asked: "Now that the two armies of you and I have advanced to the hinterland of Xinfeng County, how much time will we have to delay when we return to Canglin County to rescue now? How many central armies will you have to gather in these delayed times? Besides, if we retreat now, will the local army of Xinfeng County let us leave safely? Our army has so much baggage, once the You army pursues and kills, how much will we lose? This time, we should teach the new Red Army a lesson, and let them understand that it is not so safe to be a turtle with a shrunken head in the back. Against You Jun, they can fight if they can, and if they can't fight, they are also to blame, no wonder others!"

Ren Tianxing's consideration is also very practical, he and Lin Haotian basically have the same idea, the destruction of You must be done quickly, and the Imperial Court of You must not be allowed to have enough time to gather the army from all over the country, so that the battle against You will be difficult.

In addition, the Yan army's baggage is too much, siege equipment, opponent equipment, etc., these large weapons improve the combat power of the Yan army, but also make its action extremely slow, as Ren Tianxing himself said, now the Yan army wants to withdraw from Xinfeng County, and the baggage in the army is easy to suffer from the sneak attack of the local army of Xinfeng County.

For various considerations, Ren Tianxing gave up rescuing the New Red Army, but he was not worried that the New Red Army would really be scattered or even annihilated by the You Army, because Canglin County and the territory of the source of the New Red Army's reserve army bordered, and the reserve army of the New Red Army could enter the county at any time.

Lin Haotian, who also received a distress call, reacted diametrically opposite. (To be continued......)
