You Jun came fast and went faster, like a whirlwind and clouds, and in the blink of an eye, he ran out of Chongcheng and headed north.

You Jun is gone, but the damage left to Lingcheng cannot be extinguished for a long time, and in less than three hours, almost every household in Lingcheng has the sound of crying, and almost every family has someone who died under You Jun's knife......

As for the 200,000 You army commanded by Nie Lin, he didn't care about other things, and had only one goal, and that was the golden capital Wancheng.

If he did not lead the army to evacuate Lingcheng at this time, but stayed and garrisoned, it would be a huge trouble for the main force of the Jin army that was retreating towards Lingcheng. But the battle situation was not if, Nie Lin led the army to Bocheng, and the next morning, the main force of the Jin army led by Lin Haotian arrived in Lingcheng.

After entering the city, when people saw the scene of the mess in the city, they were also shocked, and they did not understand what was going on here.

Soon, the remnants of the defeated generals who had escaped the catastrophe and hid in various parts of the city heard that their army had arrived, and they all came out and told the generals of the Jin army everything that happened in the mausoleum.

After hearing this, all the Jin generals were a little dazed, You Jun actually attacked Lingcheng, when did they enter the Jin Kingdom? How did they march faster than their own? Besides, since they had already captured Lingcheng, why didn't they stay behind and unite with You Yan's main army to flank their own side?

There are so many questions in this that people don't know.

Lin Haotian was able to calm his breath, his mind was still calm at this time, and he asked the defenders of Lingcheng: "How many enemy troops are there?

A soldier replied: "The enemy army is about 200,000 strong, and when they leave the city, they are heading north!"

So many people, and it's northward again...... Lin Haotian's mind was flexible, and after pondering carefully, he already understood the general idea in his heart. He looked around at the generals. Said firmly: "These 200,000 You troops are not here to block the retreat of our army, but to attack the capital. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone inhaled together, no wonder the other party only rested in Lingcheng for three hours and ran in a hurry, it turned out that their target was Wancheng.

Chu Lianyu also felt that Lin Haotian's analysis was reasonable, and he hurriedly said, "My lord." The capital is empty, and now I am afraid it will be difficult to parry the 200,000 You army!"

What he said was the truth, in order to resist the invasion of the You Yan coalition army, Zhao Yu almost gave Lin Haotian all the soldiers that could be warned, and now the basic ones who remain in the capital are the Jin State Reserve Army, that is, all the recruits who have just joined the army, have not undergone systematic training, and have no experience in fighting, even so. Its strength was less than 50,000.

With only such a small number of troops, and no combat effectiveness, it is impossible to resist the 200,000 You army that is extremely ferocious.

Lin Haotian frowned and was silent, but his mind was running rapidly, thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of him. It is impossible to count on the capital to protect itself, and it is even more difficult for your own army to go to reinforcements. That will attract the main force of the You Yan coalition army together, and the troops will come to the city when they fall. You don't have any room to maneuver.

The generals looked at Lin Haotian from the side, and people also had their own thoughts in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it easily, now it is a matter of the survival of the capital, and it is also related to the life and death of the Jin Kingdom, and everyone can only wait for Lin Haotian to make a decision.

It was a long time. Lin Haotian looked at Shao Lin and said, "Immediately send a message to all counties in the north, organize local armies, and find a way to block You Ren no matter what." In addition, all cities were also notified to lay out their city defenses and do a good job of defense. Be sure to keep the enemy out of the city!"

"Yes, my lord!" Shao Lin hurriedly surrendered.

Then, Lin Haotian looked at Jin Cheng again and said: "Jin Cheng, you lead the remaining soldiers of the Fifth Army to chase the enemy, if you can, you will fight, if you can't, you will also drag the enemy army to the death, and you must not let them advance to the capital!"

"Yes, my lord!" Jin Cheng intervened.

Chu Lianyu asked, "My lord, what about us?"

Lin Haotian didn't answer immediately, but asked the defenders of Lingcheng: "How much grain and grass is there in the city?"

The defenders looked at each other, and finally bowed their heads in unison and stammered, "No...... No, the granaries were all looted by the You army, and the people in the city were also looted by the You army, and many people died......"

"These brutes!" the faces of the generals of the Jin army turned blue with anger, and their clenched fists gurgled one by one.

Lin Haotian is not surprised, if he is the chief general of the You Army, he will also let his subordinates do what they do. He nodded and said, "There is no food in Lingcheng, our army can't hold it, and we have to retreat!"

"My lord, are you retreating north?"

"Retreat to the east!" Lin Haotian said: "The capital is empty, we can no longer lead the main force of the You Yan coalition army to the direction of the capital." ”

"What do you mean by ......"

"Our army is fighting with the enemy in the three counties of Changyu, Heze, and Duling. Lin Haotian said categorically.

"But ......," Chu Lianyu said in embarrassment, "the strength of our army is too small. ”

At present, their strength is more than 200,000 including the local army, and after sending 30,000 or 40,000 officers and soldiers of the Fifth Army, there are only 200,000 people left, and among these 200,000 people, half of them are wooden troops, and only the remaining 100,000 Jin troops of the Fourth Army are really sure to compete with the enemy, while the You Yan coalition army has more than 600,000 troops, and the gap in strength between the two sides is too great.

Of course, Lin Haotian knew how big the difference in strength between the two armies was, and he also understood how difficult this battle would be, but now there was no other way but to do so.

Others can show worried expressions, but Lin Haotian, as the commander of the First Army, cannot, no matter how bottomless he is in his heart, he has to show full confidence. At a disadvantage, if the confidence of the soldiers collapses again, it will be completely hopeless.

He smiled calmly and said: "No matter how big the disadvantage is, we have not experienced it, when the Muchi coalition army was in the beginning, we sent dozens of troops to attack my Dajin, and the result was not a big defeat that we killed? The current situation is much better than then, at least all the counties and counties are still under our control." ”

Chu Lianyu sighed secretly, the adults only say the good, not the bad, how can the combat effectiveness of the Muchi Coalition Army be comparable to the You Yan Coalition Army? But he also understood what Lin Haotian meant, he was cheering up the generals.

Although he didn't break it, his brow was still furrowed.

Chu Lianyu's support was very important to Lin Haotian, who patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Lianyu, I said before that it is up to you to formulate a big strategy and guide the general direction, and it is up to me to fight against the enemy and hand over the short army." I have faith in you, and you have to have faith in me!"

Chu Lianyu was amused by his words, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Since the adult has made a decision, the last general will naturally swear to defend the adult's decision!"

"En!" Lin Haotian nodded, looked around at the generals again, and asked, "What do you think about the generals?"

The generals were in high spirits, and they all intervened to give salutes, and said in unison: "The last general is hereby dispatched by the adults!"

After the Jin army arrived in Lingcheng, it changed its strategy, gave up retreating to the north, and instead marched to the east, based on the three eastern counties, and fought with the main force of the You Yan coalition army.

Ren Tianxing and Chu Chen naturally pursued the main force of the Jin Army, and their goal was also very clear, that is, to completely annihilate the main force of the Jin Army and capture Lin Haotian in one fell swoop.

To go to the three eastern counties, you must first pass through Changyu County, most of which are mountainous, and it is not easy to march, and the speed of the Jin army has begun to slow down.

On the way, Chu Lianyu said to Lin Haotian: "My lord, the mountains of Changyu County are vertical and horizontal, and there are mountains and forests all over the place, how about our army fighting the enemy here?"

Lin Haotian also thought so, but he couldn't find a suitable tactic for a while. Ren Tianxing, the commander of the Youyan coalition army, is extremely good at using troops and strategizing, and the strength of his own side to fight head-on is insufficient, and it is unlikely that he wants to set up an ambush to lure the enemy into a plan. He pondered for a long time and asked, "Can our army take advantage of the danger of the Wang River to fight a water battle with the other side?"

He clearly remembered that the last time he led the army to fight the Wang River, it was also very difficult.

This time, before Chu Lianyu could speak, a strategist named Chen Ping on the side shook his head again and again, waved his hands, and said urgently: "My lord, this plan is not appropriate!" (to be continued......
