Chapter 149: A plan to break the city
Xiao Aotian lowered his hand beside him and said: "The handsome man is serious, what is this Rovich, how can he compare with your old man's achievements, he just occupies the right time and place, and his luck is also quite good, otherwise he is not worthy of carrying shoes for your old man with his little hair!"
Ye Ling Yan waved his hand, " Aotian, we can't lose in front of the enemy to find the reason, this time the commander is defeated, the commander is not a person who can't afford to let go, Bayan Zhuoer seems to be able to put down first, we can't delay the time here, tomorrow at dawn, your Praetorian Guard will leave 100,000 cavalry to continue to monitor Bayan Zhuoer City, waiting for Shi Da's deputy marshal of the infantry to come, our cavalry is indeed not suitable for attacking the city, before the marshal was too conceited, this Bayan Zhuoer or handed over to Shi Da's deputy marshal of the infantry to solve it, the rest of the Praetorian Guards and Xiao cavalry will continue to go north with Ben Shuai, tomorrow at dawn we have been here for four days, can no longer tossγ β
"The last general commands!"
"Wait!"
Xiao Aotian was stopped by a crisp voice as soon as he received the order, Ye Lingyan couldn't help but turn around, only to find that Ye Yuxian had also come over, and he was very unhappy in his heart, "Xian'er, don't mess around, hurry back, military affairs, not the place where you should come!"
Before Ye Yuxian could speak, Lin Ruofeng said: "Dashuai, don't worry, listen to what General Ye has to say first, I brought her here, I hope Dashuai will not be punished!"
Seeing Lin Ruofeng speak, Ye Ling Yan knew that this should not be nonsense at the very least, but he still reprimanded Lin Ruofeng: "General Lin! How can you bring it here at will!"
The night rain fairy pouted, feeling a little aggrieved in her heart. Obviously not used to Ye Lingyi's ruthless appearance, Lin Ruofeng clenched his fists and said, "Handsome." Let's listen to General Ye first, and if there is any punishment after that, Lin Ruofeng is willing to bear it. β
Seeing that Lin Ruofeng was so persistent, Ye Lingyan couldn't be too ruthless, so he could only say: "Okay, let's talk quickly, the soldiers are fast, and it's going to be dawn soon!"
Seeing that Ye Ling Yan was relieved, Ye Yuxian hurriedly said, "Dashuai." Please forgive the last general, you are too anxious to go on this expedition, eager to win, blindly conceited, this defeat is a good thing for you, a big battle is about to begin, this Bayan Zhuoer is a wake-up call to the commander!"
Lin Ruofeng was dizzy, this night rain fairy really didn't look at the time, Ye Ling Yan was originally angry. I'm not going to let you speak, I'm finally trying to give you a chance to speak, you're here to block the night.........
Ye Lingyan frowned, that is, he was broad-minded. Resisted the anger in his heart, if someone else came over, Ye Yuxian would have been pulled down and beheaded, plus Ye Yuxian was his most beloved little daughter after all. Just now I promised to let her speak, and Ye Ling, who had always been a promise, pressed down the anxiety in her heart. He glanced at her impatiently, his patience was running out.
Fortunately, the night rain fairy is not stunned. Instead of wasting all his time educating his father, Ye Yuxian avoided the eyes of Ye Lingyan, Lin Ruofeng, and Xiao Aotian, looked at Bayan Zhuoer from afar, and said in a low voice: "Dashuai, have you ever thought about these two things: fire and main trunk canal?"
Ye Ling was stunned for a moment, the main trunk canal is a small tributary of the Yellow River that crosses Bayan Zhuoer City, he naturally knows that the Yellow River water is indeed very fast, but if you want to flood Bayan Zhuoer with water, it is completely impossible, thinking of blocking the Yellow River to bring water over, the amount of work is not ordinarily large, and it is not the flood season of the Yellow River, the water of the Yellow River is not too high, so even if the tools are complete and the army of millions is not necessarily too effective.
Xiao Aotian also said, "General Night, what's the use of you mentioning these two things?"
The Night Rain Immortal said mysteriously: "Haven't you noticed that there are many wooden structures inside the Rakshasa Kingdom, and there are a lot of animal skins and furs outside, what a good ignition material! The Xiao cavalry army has a lot of black oil discovered by General Lin Ruofeng, this kind of black oil is a little bit, and it is difficult to extinguish, when the time comes, the archers who are dyed in the Xiao cavalry army will make rockets, and when the time comes, ten thousand arrows will be fired together, then Bayan Zhuoer City will definitely be a burning city!"
Ye Ling was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's not that I haven't thought about the fire attack, but although it is easy to ignite in Bayan Zhuoer City, don't forget, there is such a big main canal in Bayan Zhuoer City, the main trunk canal is about 1 li (less than 400 meters) wide, and there is the support of the Yellow River, the fire attack effect is really not big, there is a main trunk canal, even if Bayan Zhuoer is attacked by fire, no, the main trunk canal!" Ye Lingyan seemed to suddenly think of something, and his eyes looked at the Night Rain Fairy with a sparkling eye.
"You want to block the main trunk canal?!"
Ye Yuxian nodded, Ye Ling Yan deserved to be the Great Zhao Military God, she thought about the strategy for four or five days, and only mentioned the beginning, Ye Ling Yan could understand her thoughts so quickly. "Yes, it is a very huge project to block the Yellow River, but it is quite simple to block the main trunk canal, we only need to block the interface between the main trunk canal and the Yellow River, only less than 1 mile wide gap, it is not too difficult, 100,000 cavalry one person to throw a sack of soil is almost the same, half an hour can be completed, after the Yellow River is blocked, because of the topography, the water of the main trunk canal will inevitably flow into the Yellow River downstream, so that from the beginning of our army to block the Yellow River interface to the main trunk canal drying up, the total process is definitely not more than 1 hourγ β
Ye Lingxian nodded, after hearing Ye Yuxian's plan, the heart that had been put down became active again, Ye Yuxian's strategy is excellent, if it is implemented well, then this Bayan Zhuoer can really attack it, however, Ye Lingyan saw that Ye Yuxian seemed to be still unsatisfied, but his heart was even more happy, and he hurriedly said: "Night General, is there any follow-up strategy, hurry up and say it!"
Ye Yuxian nodded, "The previous ones are actually just foreshadowing, and the latter is the focus, before the time of Bayan Zhuoer, the last general understood the geographical structure and internal structure of Bayan Zhuoer from the mouth of General Lin Ruofeng's spies, so the last general asked Lin Ruofeng to send three thousand Xiao cavalry troops to return to Tianluo Pass quickly and transport the special black oil prepared by the Xiao cavalry auxiliary barracks, and just now these three thousand Xiao cavalry troops have brought back the black oil. β
"The end will think like this, we will first drain the water of the main trunk canal, and then when the sky is just dawning, the Xiao cavalry dispatched 50,000 cavalry, under the cover of the Praetorian Guard infantry as close as possible to the city wall, the range of the Xiao cavalry cavalry has reached almost 2500 meters after learning to twist the archery, as long as it is close to the city wall 500 meters, basically the east, west and north of the three city walls together with arrows, most of the area of Bayan Zhuoer will be covered by the rockets in the hands of the Xiao cavalry, this black oil is on fire, it is very difficult to extinguish, plus most of the Bayan Zhuoer City is a wooden structure, and there are many cow and sheep fur hanging outside, which can soon cause a monstrous fire in Bayan Zhuoer CityAt this time, the water in the main canal dried up again, and no matter how powerful Narovich was, it was difficult to have the power to return to heaven. β
Xiao Aotian couldn't help but look sideways at this 20-year-old girl after hearing Ye Yuxian's plan, but Xiao Aotian was one of the few old and stable generals in the Praetorian Guard, and he quickly discovered the loophole, " General Night, your strategy is indeed a superior strategy, the old man admires it very much, it is really a hero out of a young man, but I don't know that General Night has not thought about it, the city wall is a pure brick and stone structure, and it is not afraid of fire, after the fire in this city, the city wall is still safe, at least 100,000 soldiers can be squeezed out, and the fire attack will burn countless Rakshasa soldiers to death, but the city wall is still in the hands of the Rakshasas, we still can't capture Bayan Zhuoer City!"
Night Rain Fairy said to Xiao Aotian unhurriedly: "Old General Xiao, don't worry, this is just the first step, that's right, when the time comes, burn and kill some of the Rakshasa soldiers, after the chaos, these chaotic soldiers will definitely crowd the city wall after they find that the main trunk canal is dry, and the soldiers that can be accommodated on the city wall are limited, and they will definitely be in a pot of porridge at that time, and then our second strategy can come into play." β
Ye Lingyan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Is General Night trying to use the Water Gate?"
Ye Ling Yan was originally good at using soldiers, and it was not surprising that Ye Yuxian could guess his strategy, "Yes, when the main canal and river dry up, the east and west water gates will definitely be exposed, and then our key offensive direction will be on these two water gates." β
"But this Rovich is very cautious, thinking that when he sees that the water level begins to drop, he will definitely start to mobilize the elite of the Rakshasa soldiers to defend tightly, and we have to use a small strategy, when the time comes, the west water gate will take the lead in attacking, and the attack intensity is moderate, and General Lin Ruofeng will lead the 30,000 cavalry of the Xiao cavalry army to follow behind, follow closer, to create a scene where the Xiao cavalry army is fully protecting the Praetorian Guards attacking the water gate, and the marshal will personally lead another part of the Praetorian Guards to the east where we have not attacked decently these days, and then the west water gate will attack for a while, The marshal suddenly led the Praetorian Guard, which was originally a cavalry, to quickly approach the water gate in the east, and strive to attack the water gate in the east, the bigger the movement, the better, the best marshal can personally break the water gate in the east, Rovitch is suspicious by nature, so virtual and real, he will definitely think that the East Water Gate is the main force of your attack this time, when the ordinary Rakshasa soldiers are already in chaos, and there must not be many soldiers he can call, at that time he must mobilize his elite to fully support the East Water Gate. β
"At this time, it is the time for General Lin Ruofeng's Xiao cavalry to play, quickly replace the original attack of the Praetorian Guard, General Chen Gu has broken through the first-class, think about the enemy, although the enemy has a sense, but until now it is not very clear who it is, so this is also our opportunity, the Xiao cavalry army with General Chen Gu to break the West Water Gate first, when the time comes, the Xiao cavalry will rush into Bayan Zhuoer City along the main trunk canal, with the combat effectiveness of the Xiao cavalry, Bayan Zhuoer City is at your fingertips!"
