Chapter 228: Strategizing

"Lord Chen is right, if Yan Pingqiu's 100,000 troops attack Yanyun County, then we won't be able to gain a foothold here at all." Zhuge Xiaosheng said.

"And we have to fight alone, we can't expect the emperor to reinforce a single soldier." Wei Yuntian said.

"Yuntian, haven't you seen the current situation clearly? Wanyan Pingqiu is a wolf, Li Wanjiang is a tiger, no matter who they come in the future, it will be a catastrophe for us! Chen Jisheng said with a smile.

"There is a wolf in front of you who wants to enter the door, and there is a tiger in the back, it seems like this situation, but what can I do?" Ye Baiqing sighed.

"Death and life! Although the current situation is still grim, we started well, this battle has subdued a little fox, the future is nothing more than wolves to fight wolves, tigers to fight tigers, tigers will not bite at present, let's fight wolves first. "Xiao Chen has always been so optimistic.

"You may not be able to kill a wolf, but you may be able to block them." Zhuge Little Life Man took the map of Yanyun County and pointed to Niutou Mountain, "Master Zhishen, what do you think?" ”

"There is no other way for the sake of today, if they come, they can only fight them to the death here!" Li Tanhanami.

"Master, how many soldiers and horses do you have in Niutou Mountain?" Wei Yuntian asked.

"Hehe, there are only more than 500 monks and soldiers in the poor monks, plus the local defenders, there are only 2,000 people in the so-so, but there are also some dead and wounded, and now there are 1,500 or 6." With only 2,000 men, Li Tanhua was able to hold Niutou Mountain for more than a month, and Wu Luolan's 20,000 Xian Xiao cavalry attacked many times, but they couldn't defeat it.

But he only had such a few people, but he didn't dare to take the initiative to attack, so he could only rely on the natural danger of Niutou Mountain to take a defensive position.

Now Xiao Chen has more than 10,000 people, and the combined scale of the Niutou Mountain defenders is more than 12,000, as long as it is properly arranged, it is enough to fight!

"But the northern border is so long, what if Wanyan Pingqiu makes a detour from the east? We can't have troops to defend it now, and there are not enough troops to defend such a long border. Yue Zhonglin said.

"There is a big river from west to east, leading directly to the North Sea, and the narrowest part of the river is more than 100 meters, and it is not easy for them to cross the river, but this is about to enter the cold winter, once the river freezes, they will also walk on the ground." Ye Baiqing said.

"In that case, they will have to make a great detour, and it will not be easy for an army of 100,000 to march in winter, especially when it snows and their horses have no grass to eat, so they will need a lot of baggage to follow, and the movement will be quite slow." Wei Yuntian said.

"Now that Yanyun County has almost been looted by Uroran, especially the cleanest in the northern states, there is hardly a grain left, what will his 100,000 army eat when he enters Yanyun County? If he doesn't have to transport it from their country, how can he keep such a long grain route? We can send troops to get him at any time! Lin Yue said.

"Well, he went south this time to plunder the territory, but the occupation of those almost empty cities is actually of no value at all, no one has no food and no things, what is he doing with it? Unless he moves the entire kingdom of Moxian over so that he can gain a foothold. Zhuge Xiaosheng's opinion is the same as that of Wu Luolan.

"And among these 100,000 people, at least 60,000 are soldiers from other tribes, these tribes are all with their own ghosts, and they are not in harmony with him, if they get cheap, it's okay, if they find that there is no advantage to take advantage of, I'm afraid that they will be scattered immediately." Li Tanhanami.

"So now that he finishes Yan Pingqiu, whether he will send troops is still between the two?" Xiao Chen asked the key to the question in one sentence.

"I think he's still hesitating, otherwise he should have sent troops long ago, and wouldn't have waited until winter." Zhuge Xiaosheng said.

"Is there a possibility, you say?" Xiao Chen suddenly had a whim, "The purpose of his gathering of this 100,000 army is not actually to go south, but to destroy Xian Xiao?" ”

"I don't rule out this possibility, Xian Xiao was originally very incompatible with their Mo Qi, but in recent years, it has gradually grown stronger, which is indeed a big threat to their Mo Qi country." Li Tanhanami.

"Then why didn't he take advantage of Uroran to bring the troops out and directly lead the troops to fight Xianyu?" Wei Yuntian asked.

"I think this is also the cunning of Wanyan Pingqiu, although Uroran brought out 20,000 elite soldiers, but Xian Xiao still has 40,000 or 50,000 troops, even if he exerts all the strength of the whole country, it is not easy to quickly defeat the strong Xian Xiao, in case there is a fight, what should Wu Luolan do if he leads his troops back to attack him?" Zhuge Xiaosheng said.

"So if he wants to destroy Xian Xiao, he must first deal with the 20,000 people of Uroran, who looted a lot of property from Yanyun County, which made the other tribes quite jealous, but no one can take the initiative to come out and rob openly, so when Yan Ping Qiu raised his arms and united everyone to send troops in the name of going south, they all gladly agreed."

"He can find an excuse to start a war with Uloran, and then divide those huge fortunes evenly with the big guys, as long as the big guys laugh and accept it, it will be tantamount to openly fighting against Xianxiao, and then he proposes to jointly send troops to destroy Xianxiao, and everyone will agree......"

"What Brother Zhuge has seen is extremely true!" Li Tanhua praised the case, "If I were to finish Yan Pingqiu, I would do the same." ”

"No wonder Uloran is reluctant to withdraw from the army, I'm afraid she also expected this situation, right?" Xiao Chen said.

"Well, so this little prince is very remarkable, if everything is carried out according to her plan, Wanyan Pingqiu can't do anything about her." Zhuge Xiaosheng smiled slightly, "It's a pity that her plan hasn't changed quickly, she has actually failed from the beginning, and there are ......three reasons for this."

"First, she is too anxious, if she wants to realize this big plan, first of all, she should have full control of Xianxiao's power, so that she has no worries; second, she failed to occupy the most critical place, Niutou Mountain, which caused her to lose ground now; The third is that I didn't expect Ben Shuai to lead his troops out of the customs and give her such a sudden! Xiao Chen said.

"Boss Wise!" The big guys gave Xiao Chen a thumbs up together.

"Otherwise, can you be your boss?" Xiao Chen smiled proudly.

"Why do I get more and more confused the more I listen! So after Yan Pingqiu, will he send troops to attack us? Or will he attack that Uloran? "Wei Yuntian's IQ is not low, but in front of these people's sperm, it is slightly inferior and can't keep up with the rhythm.

"We are only analyzing the situation now, but we can't draw a definite conclusion, because the situation will change at any time, we assume that Wanyan Pingqiu will attack Uroran, but this does not mean that he will not attack us, maybe it is possible to take advantage of the situation to go south and occupy the important place of Niutou Mountain first." Zhuge Xiaosheng said.

"It's entirely possible." Li Tanhua nodded yes.

"Is there still a possibility that Wanyan Pingqiu and Wu Luolan will reach some kind of agreement, and then join forces to attack us together?" Ye Baiqing said.
