Chapter 998 - The battle situation brightens the hole cards
"What? Stop the siege!"
Ding Kui was discussing government affairs with Liu Yu and was a little surprised by the news reported by Ding Caiyu.
"Yes, the enemy has dismantled and pulled all the trebuchets away, and only the patrols are left in the siege positions to watch over us. Ding Cai further recounted what he saw on the city wall.
"Let's go. Ding Kui took Liu Yu to the city tower together.
Just after talking with the Kraken Emperor last night, today's army has retreated? It is impossible for the two countries to collude, and the most likely thing is that the war between the two countries is tightened elsewhere.
"Master, the enemy army was still attacking the city in the morning, and suddenly retreated near noon, and his subordinates were worried that the enemy army was cheating, so they did not send people out of the city to check. "Zhong Wei is the commander of the city.
Ding Kui looked down at the city, and only saw twenty or thirty of his own troops walking far away from the city gate, and the fog was thick in the farther away, and he couldn't see it clearly.
"Well, I'll go and have a look with Grandpa Kun. After speaking, Ding Kui glanced at Ding Kun, and then flew to the north. Before they could approach their camp, Xia Fan and Blue-Eyed Mask blocked their way.
"City Lord Ding will stop blaming us for being rude. Xia Fan said.
"Hehe, don't be like this, after all, I have known each other, and I should send you off when you leave. Ding Kui reluctantly stopped.
"The little hairy boy is playing tricks in front of the old body, feeling that we are leaving, you can send someone out of the city to try. "The wolf-faced woman doesn't eat Ding Kui's set at all.
Knowing that there are five sixth-level combat power in his country, Ding Kui is inconvenient to take Ding Kun to break through, and said stupidly: "The two of you don't have much blood on your hands, maybe you will be friends when you meet in the future, why don't you be honest with each other if it's not an important matter?"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Ding Juma to be such an interesting person, although he is full of nonsense, but it sounds like there is some truth, we were friends a month ago, and it is difficult to say that we will not be allies in the future. Blue-eyed masked smiled, "But the military order on the battlefield is the greatest, and you are also a person in the army, so why waste your tongue." ”
"I don't mean to embarrass the two of you, or let's exchange news like this, the Meng Kingdom has formed an alliance with me, and is about to launch a fierce attack on your army, and you won't be able to go back if you don't leave." Ding Kui pulled up Helian Yu's banner as a tiger skin.
The Siren Emperor did not promise him to intensify the attack on his own army, but his own people did not know.
Xia Fan and Blue-Eyed Mask looked at each other hesitantly, and Xia Fan said, "You don't have to lie to us, even if Meng Guo really attacks us, we are not afraid." ”
Ding Kui raised his palm to stop Xia Fan from continuing, "Okay, some words are over, see you later!" After speaking, he turned around and retreated to Hengfu City, leaving Xia Fan and Blue-Eyed Mask to look at each other.
Back on the city tower, Ding Kun asked, "Is what the young master said true? Everyone else looked at Ding Kui with surprised eyes.
"Half-truths. Ding Kui smiled, "Now we can be sure that Jikou's change has nothing to do with the Meng Kingdom, it should be the arrival of reinforcements from the kingdom, and it is not ruled out that the enemy has any conspiracy." ”
"Conspiracy? If we defend the city and don't take the initiative, it's useless to let the enemy play any conspiracy. "Zhong Wei has deduced a variety of tactics of his own army.
"My country has been sending local troops to attack Hengfu City, and their main force is going to attack Nanqiu County, once it is changed from attack to defense, nearly 100,000 local troops here can be pulled to guard the pass, and it is not in the interests of our own army to be dragged here. Liu Yu analyzed, "This time, our country dispatched five sixth-level combat power to defeat us, and it is normal to want to change tactics, but risks and opportunities coexist." ”
Ding Kui asked, "What are the risks and opportunities?"
"Five Level 6 fighters can decide the outcome on other battlefields, even if the Eighth Legion encounters it, it will be difficult to win, and there is a chance to inflict heavy damage on our reinforcements along the way.
The risk is that our sixth-level combat power will rush out with our soldiers, at least they will be able to sweep through the Giant Sheep City area, provided that their sixth-level combat power goes elsewhere.
In general, the enemy is more active than us, and the hundreds of thousands of people and ladies in the city are our burden, and our risk is far greater than that of the enemy. ”
"Qianyou, immediately notify Nanjing City, and let the Southern Demon Branch remind the troops near Nanqiu County to be careful of the enemy's high-end combat power sneak attack. Ding Kui immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Qianyou didn't say much, and immediately flew towards the Magic Guild.
"Grandpa Kun, please ask Ding Yu, Ao Yan and Qian to come over. Ding Kui thought about it and instructed Ding Kun.
Liu Yu asked, "Do you want to take the initiative?"
"There's no other way, we have to fight out!" Ding Kui turned his head to look north, "Blue-eyed Kamen and Xia Fan are still there, if you are not mistaken, Zhan Jie is also there, but Hao Dong and Lang Chun should have been transferred, if those two people run to the Boundary City, Lord Zhang and they will be in danger." ”
"But what if this is a trap set by the enemy? There are more than 10,000 soldiers in the city, and they can't afford to lose too much. Zhong Wei strongly advised.
"You!" Ding Kui pointed at Zhong Wei, "Go and ask the City Lord Qian to come over." ”
Ding Kun whispered in Ding Kui's ear, "You don't plan to use that, do you?" Ding Kui nodded silently.
At this time and then, Ding Kui did not expect his country to use so much strength to fight, and sent more than 400,000 troops before and after, and there were six known sixth-level combat powers;
"How many crossbows are there?" he asked as soon as he saw Qian Bu.
"Uh," Qian Bu thought quickly, "not counting the two thousand remaining in the special operations battalion." ”
"Assigned to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Infantry Battalions, from now on these four battalions will be reorganized into the 1st to 4th Battalions of the Strong Crossbow, and the remaining infantry battalions will be gradually reorganized to fill the vacancies. Ding Kui said without hesitation.
The old man didn't expect Ding Kui's attitude to suddenly reverse, so he asked more out of caution: "Do you have to take it all out?"
"The money offering is also back, we can't be suppressed here in vain, we have to fight out, and we have to drag the enemy's high-end combat power to the death. Oh, everyone, listen to me. ”
At this time, Ao Yu, Ao Yan and Shi Jiang all rushed to the city tower, and Ding Kui signaled Ao Yan to set up a soundproof magic array and gather his subordinates to discuss tactics.
Suddenly, the suspension bridge of Hengfu City was lowered, the closed city gate slowly opened with the rotation of the winch, and the heavily armed Lei Feixiang took the lead on the suspension bridge, followed by the eight hundred officers and soldiers of the special operations battalion.
"Huh, they really dare to come out!" Xia Fan had been observing the movements of Hengfu City.
"Withdraw, the main force of the local army has been transferred, and we will retreat to the camp at the mouth of the swamp. Blue-Eyed Masquerade waved his magic wand and put away the fog of the battlefield.
The moisture quickly dissipated in the sunlight, revealing an empty camp of our own army.
The special operations battalion all walked across the suspension bridge, "Column up in a phalanx, advance at a uniform speed!" Lei Feixiang ignored the changes in the enemy, still carried out the original military order, and personally commanded the special operations battalion to launch an attack.
