Chapter 285: Swap
On a foggy day, the vanguard of the first wave of the Nantianmen Army was in trouble. It was originally Nezha's troops who launched a surprise attack from the north of the demon clan coalition, that is, directly in front of the battle between the two sides. Sweeping all the way to the eyeliner placed by the Bull Demon King.
In less than a stick of incense, the entire demon clan alliance had already received the order to prepare for battle. Naturally, the monkey also received.
"It is the troops under Nezha that have been dispatched, the commander is the Growth Heavenly King, and our front is now the Owl March. In this direction of attack, we are at the rear. This style of play seems to be different from what we expected. ”
Now it is only a feint attack force, and the real main force has not yet appeared. It may or may not be directly behind us. ”
"Not realistic. The monkey shook his head and said, "If their main force really went around in such a big circle, there is no reason why our scouts didn't find out." ”
"Then what do you think their strategy is?" asked Yeon-hee.
Turning his face sideways and glancing at White Frost, the monkey said, "I think that White Frost's previous statement may have become a reality." Although both armies want to end this battle quickly, after all, they are old enemies for thousands of years, and there is no reason for them to fully trust each other. So, in the end, I can only play according to the normal one. After all...... No one wants to be served by the other party at this opportunity. ”
Nezha's troops appeared, and the marching army that happened to be deployed in front could only meet the battle.
I don't know if Nezha's troops are not suitable for the fighting style of the Growth Heavenly King, or if the Owl Marching Army, who is good at forced marching, is really handy with this kind of suspicious formation, and in the first wave of exchanges, the Owl Marching Army occupies an absolute advantage.
According to the battle report received by the monkey, Nezha's troops adopted the same style of play as Ling Chi at first, smashing the eyeliner laid by the Bull Demon King layer by layer, and slowly advancing.
Such tactics tend to be conservative, and at the same time, they completely expose themselves to their opponents. The attack took advantage of the super mobility of the marching army, and divided half of the troops directly into the rear of the opponent's vanguard army. This move can be said to have made the vanguard troops of Nantianmen miserable. Even morale has been compromised.
The vanguard broke into the suspicious formation laid by the Bull Demon King, which meant that it was deep in the enemy's formation. Caution is indeed required in this case. But what I encountered was the march of the owl.
On the one hand, it was circumvented, and on the other hand, the style of play was also erratic, and a wave of arrows retreated, and it would never fight hard with the Nantianmen vanguard army. Coupled with the suspicious formation, the vanguard troops were basically left with only the share of being beaten.
Losses are rising little by little.
Of course, as an overall tactic, Nantianmen is quite smooth. The main thing is that the Owl March is not going to fight hard, which means that the troops can continue to penetrate deep under the condition of bearing losses.
Of course, no one knows where it goes. Follow the map of the pawns received by the monkeys. As long as they walked another twenty miles, they would directly encounter the main force of the Bull Demon Army Headquarters.
The Bull Demon King's style of play is different from that of the Owl March.
Without receiving a military order, the monkey could only sit in his cabin and watch the battle report over and over again...... I didn't seem to find anything out of the ordinary.
The monkeys were a little confused.
"Isn't that wonderful?" said Baishuang, "which means that they can't talk to each other, so they can only fight seriously." ”
"Really?" the monkey fox looked at her suspiciously.
Li Jing and the Bull Demon King, these two guys will fight seriously?
Perhaps, believing this, is it really one foot in the trap?
It seems that there is no conspiracy, and it is the most terrifying.
Raising his head, the monkey said expressionlessly: "Pass the order, everyone be vigilant." We sent our own scouts, even if the Bull Demon Army had already provided information, we had to probe it again. ”
"No!" the bull leader took the order and hurried out.
Crowded into the cabin, the generals of the new army were silent one by one.
Time passed bit by bit, and the monkey repeatedly proofread the information provided by the Bull Demon Army, and found that there was no difference between what he had obtained directly.
"What's the problem?"
The monkey never figured it out, but he didn't dare to take it lightly.
Military orders continued to be issued one after another, and the formations and movements of all parties were constantly adjusted. Only the monkey is on standby.
As time passed, gradually, the Bull Demon King seemed to have begun to adjust his tactics.
The Red Dragon Army and the Lion Camel Army received orders to attack from the left and right flanks and break through the inner encirclement of the Nantianmen Army. At the same time, two other armies of the Nantianmen Army also appeared, namely the troops on the left flank led by the Heavenly King of the Holding Kingdom, and the Tianhe Water Army on the right flank under the command of Zhu Gangguan. The direction of attack of these two armies, judging from intelligence, is directly hitting the headquarters of the Bull Demon Army.
The monkey's brows furrowed.
"What is this for? Put us aside to watch the play, and when the fight is over, give us war exploits for nothing?"
The monkey didn't believe it, and none of the demon generals in the cabin believed it.
The hydra that was sent out disguised as "Big Red" made a big circle, and due to the heavy fog, sometimes it was directly close to the battlefield to observe. Outcome...... When he returned to the cabin, he put the situation he saw on the monkey's sand table one by one, exactly the same as the information given by the Bull Demon Army.
Time ticked by.
In the blink of an eye, the war had been going on for two hours.
Even the elite troops of the Bull Demon King had already participated in the battle, but the new army of the monkeys was still left alone in the rear.
The more the monkey thinks about this, the more wrong it becomes, but there seems to be no better way. Every time I sent someone to ask the Bull Demon King, the reply I got was "don't move".
Another soldier of the Bull Demon Army who was in charge of delivering military information visited the Monkey's flagship and stood outside the cabin to deliver the latest battle report.
Yanxi flipped through it casually and walked in.
"Li Jing's main force appeared. ”
"Huh?" the monkey touched his chin and said, "The main troops of the army that day, this is all right?"
"Yes, all on the battlefield. ”
"You say...... Is it possible for them to get another unit from the Tianhe Water Army to come over and use it as a killing move?"
"It shouldn't be possible. Yanxi shook her head lightly and said, "The fog is only this one, not all places. If there had been a fleet approaching, we should have found out long ago. Also, the headquarters of the Tianhe Navy is now being confronted by the Jiao Demon King. According to the information we have received now, the headquarters of the Tianhe Water Army has not divided its troops. ”
The "big red", who had circled around the battlefield again, hurriedly walked in, did not greet anyone, took a glass of water on the side of the sand table and drank it all, and then began to move the chess pieces on the sand table as the objects of each army.
After putting it out, he chirped and said, "The latest." ”
Taking the drawings in Yanxi's hand, the monkey frowned and proofread. Suddenly, the monkey's face changed, as if he realized something, and his gaze kept going back and forth between the drawings and the sandbox.
"What's wrong?" asked White Frost, craned her neck.
The monkey handed the drawings in his hand to Yanxi. Yanxi also hurriedly took a closer look.
The demon generals around them also refreshed themselves one by one.
Pointing to the two dots on the sand table, the monkey asked softly, "This place, are you sure that the current layout is like this?"
"Do you think I'm going to be wrong?" "Big Red" asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, the monkey snorted and laughed.
"What's wrong?"
Stretched out his finger and pointed to the two dots on the sand table and said, "According to the intelligence, the Heavenly Army is attacking." But it didn't say that the Celestial Army had torn the gap. Moreover, these two points will not be torn apart normally. ”
"What does that mean?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it means...... The Bull Demon King sold our new army. ”
"Huh?" the eyes of the people in the cabin widened.
Before the demon generals present could figure it out, the monkey had already spoken: "Pass the order, all the warships will move forward at full speed!"
"Where are you going?"
"If you go to the frontal battlefield, just rush straight over! Also, you don't have to report this matter to the Bull Demon Army!"
......
The monkeys' instincts weren't wrong, they were indeed sold.
After giving the order, the new army set sail at full speed as fast as it could, and rushed in the direction of the frontal battlefield regardless of it.
However, they were supposed to be in the position where the flagship of the Bull Demon Army should have appeared, and they didn't even see half of the Bull Demon Army's warship. When it should have encountered the rear fleet of the Owl March, half of them were also not seen.
The entire battlefield was empty, as if only the new army was in it.
When they were about to cross the middle line of the battlefield, what appeared in the fog was the main force of the mighty and boundless Nantianmen Fleet.
Even Li Jing stood on the flagship, looking at the monkeys on the deck from afar.
As soon as he turned around, the Tianhe Navy fleet led by Zhu Gangguan was already behind him......
......
There is nothing wrong with the intelligence, and there is nothing wrong with the reconnaissance of the hydra, the mistake is that this battlefield is too small.
In the fog, as long as the two sides did not bite completely, the fleet at full speed across the entire battlefield would only be less than half an hour. And Li Jing and the Bull Demon King, taking advantage of the gap between less than two intelligences, took the initiative to give a gap in the defense line, and then the two armies staggered and exchanged positions.
Thereupon...... The new army, which was in the rear, was completely encircled.
