"How many troops do Xiao Xiu and Brother Yeluhan still have on hand now?"

Looking at the location of Yaowo Fort on the map, Ye Mingsheng asked his "chief of staff" He Jingyun:

Facing Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, He Jingyun recalled it for a while, and then said:

"These two people initially numbered more than 2,000 people, but we have annihilated more than 500 people. Adding in the stragglers who have not yet taken a turn, they now have no more than 1,500 people at most..."

·······”

Ye Mingsheng heard this and asked again:

"General He, what do you think about the attack on Yaowo Fort?"

Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, He Jingyun immediately understood what he was thinking, pondered for a moment and said:

"Sir, Xiao Xiu and Brother Yeluhan still have at least 500 cavalry in their hands. Their strength cannot be underestimated. It will not be easy to annihilate them all. If we want to fight, we must fight quickly!"

After receiving the advice, Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly. With a decision in his mind, he looked at his generals and immediately ordered:

"The whole army attacks and gets to Yaowo Fort before dark! We will launch an attack at 10 o'clock tomorrow!"

"yes!"

The generals responded loudly, all gearing up, with passionate fighting spirit bursting out of their eyes.

The continuous victory over the Khitans in the past few days has allowed Ye Mingsheng's newly formed army to accumulate a lot of self-confidence. Everyone is eager to chop off more Khitan heads in exchange for military exploits.

Under Ye Mingsheng's order, the three thousand Zhenwu Army in Mentougou began a high-intensity march. Two hours later they arrived at their destination - Yaowobao.

Although it is called Yaowobao, it is actually a small village. Normally, there are about a thousand villagers living here. But now that the Khitan people are attacking, these villagers living in the village have also run in.

I took refuge in the nearby mountains...

Perhaps they took a fancy to Yaowo Fort because its accessible terrain made it easier to deliver messages and gather the defeated troops, so the two defeated Khitan generals, Xiao Xiu and Yelu Hange, chose Yaowo Fort as the location for the round.

For the Khitans in Yaowo Fort, the surprise attack by Ye Mingsheng's troops was like a divine weapon descending from heaven. It made them extremely panicked, and a pessimistic atmosphere permeated the village.

In the past two days, they were divided into several groups and looted in all directions. In the face of Ye Mingsheng's absolutely superior force, they were beaten and howled like ghosts and wolves. They fled for their lives. As soon as they reached Yaowou Fort, they had not yet fully breathed, but they were beaten by Ye Mingsheng again.

Ming Sheng's troops caught up.

Fortunately, Ye Mingsheng's 3,000 soldiers and horses arrived at Yaowo Fort when the night was getting darker. In addition, after the high-intensity march, his men were tired and the horses were exhausted, so it was not suitable for fighting at night.

Otherwise, Ye Mingsheng really wants to give it a try and launch an offensive now to see if he can win the Wainwo Fort in one go...

Although it is a pity that they cannot launch a night attack, now that they have arrived at Yaowo Fort, can these more than a thousand Khitans still escape?

Ye Mingsheng has already observed that although the village of Yaowobao has defensive buildings such as walls and wooden piles, they are extremely simple. The walls are actually small earthen walls in the countryside. The highest point is about eight feet, which is generally

At about six or seven feet high, this earthen wall could serve as a defense against bandits who lacked firearms, and the caravans could also be of some use.

But when they met the regular army under Ye Mingsheng, the earthen wall played a better role than nothing, giving the Khitan people guarding inside some comfort...

Seeing this situation, a happy smile appeared on Ye Mingsheng's face. Based on the current situation and the disparity in the strength of the two sides, he was confident that he would start the battle at Chenshi, attack the stronghold at noon, and end the battle before sunset.

As long as these more than a thousand defeated Khitan soldiers are annihilated, only more than two thousand Yeluyan will be left in Xinfa County. If Yeluyan knows better, he will go back to the Songmo area, otherwise Ye Mingsheng will send troops to Xinfa

Faxian, don’t mind giving him a ride!

The satisfied Ye Mingsheng washed up early and got ready to rest. He will get up early tomorrow morning and command the army to break into the city and annihilate the thieves!

But strangely enough, Ye Mingsheng, who had been riding a horse for a long time, was obviously very tired physically and his head was also very sleepy. He was in a state where he could fall asleep just by touching the bed.

But Ye Mingsheng was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He felt as if he had missed some threat, but he still couldn't figure out where this threat came from...

·

Just when Ye Mingsheng was thinking hard, his right eyelid suddenly jumped up without any warning while he was lying on the bed. This sign undoubtedly made Ye Mingsheng's bad premonition become more intense.

When he was on Earth, Ye Mingsheng was a staunch atheist and believed that science could explain everything. But when something supernatural like time travel happened to him, his firmness in science was shaken.

Ye Mingsheng, who was feeling a little heavy, thought for a moment and then put on a robe and asked his soldiers to light a few candles in the tent. Under the light of the candles, he observed Fengzhou again.

map.

Ye Mingsheng felt that the things he missed in calculations were likely to be reflected on the map...

Is the threat coming from behind?

no!

Since An Zhirong's caravan was supposed to go through Qumaling, although it was attacked several times by the Shiwei people, they were all blocked by Zhu Shou and Yuan Song's tribe in Qumaling without exception, and the attack by the Shiwei people was not affected.

to the normal operation of the caravan.

Does the threat come from within?

Ye Mingsheng felt that it was not the case. Under his series of operations, He Jingyun had all his subordinates dispersed at the grassroots level and became a lonely man. Now he can be said to be very honest and has lost his original ambition. He can safely consider himself "

chief of staff"

Although Ye Mingsheng has not yet taken action against the local officials in Fengzhou, Gu Sansi, who was appointed by him, is indeed very capable. Under his various methods of coaxing and dividing, coercion and inducement, the local officialdom of Fengzhou has already shown a transformation.

With the new situation in mind, officials have gradually begun to unite around Ye Mingsheng and work for Ye Mingsheng!

Since this threat does not come from the rear or from the inside, where does it come from?

Ye Mingsheng thought hard, and then Ye Tie walked into Ye Mingsheng's tent with a bowl of chicken soup and two white flour buns, and greeted Ye Mingsheng:

"Master, you're still up so late, are you hungry?"
