Liang Chong found Zhongwan City on the map, drew a circle with a pen as a mark, and then said: "After the Meng army gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to capture Zhongwan City, there were three suitable marching routes. The first route was to the south. It takes half a day's walk along the road to reach Shapu City. Once Shapu City is defeated, we will be next to us. As long as we separate several divisions of troops and add the defenders of Xiaxuan Pass to encircle them on all sides, the Xiaxuan Pass Blockade Camp will be restored again. Once it was destroyed, the Meng army's retreat would be clear.
The second route is to the west, which only takes half a day to drive. Zengxi City will be exposed to enemy attacks. Taking Zengxi City will threaten the hinterland of Huashan County, and many cities will be in danger of being attacked.
The third route goes straight to the southwest, and is half farther than the other two routes. It can reach Huairou City. Taking Huairou City will open up a road to Tunchang County. If the enemy's main force goes around to the rear of the Zhongdi First Army, The last three cities in Nanqiu County will lose their geographical advantages, which will add great hidden dangers to the southern defense zone."
"Will the enemy commander divide his troops into three groups?" Zhang Jie felt a little guilty when facing the "female general goddess" and was not confident enough when judging her strategic intentions.
"It's not easy to judge. There are many influencing factors, but I estimate that the enemy will at least divide their forces into two groups. If they are more prudent, they will definitely divide their forces and go south. When they attack Shapu City, they will also attack us." Liang Chong naturally understood the division commander. thoughts.
"The main force of our army must come from the north. The blocking camp at Bianfeng Pass must be a key point in the struggle between the enemy and us. The blocking camp is basically set up to strictly guard against the east, so it is easier to attack from the west. Most of the Mongolian troops defend If we don't stay, we will be recaptured by our army sooner or later. Then our place will become the only obstacle for the Meng army to return to the occupied area. If we are not removed, the enemy commander will have trouble sleeping and eating." Ding Kui interjected to express his views on the situation of the battle. analysis.
"What you all mean is that the Meng army will come. As long as it comes, it is bound to win. They will not just send one or two divisions to fight with us. They will definitely send overwhelming forces. The instructions given to us by the base camp are to be ready at any time. Preparations for retreat should be based on the expectation that we will face an enemy force several times our own, allowing us to leave the Duguan Camp despite the huge disparity in strength.
The problem is that our division has just arrived at the front line, and it would be a bit embarrassing to retreat without fighting the first battle we face. The frontiers have to block the main camp and desperately block the enemy's main force, but when it comes to me, they have to run away in despair. , I, Zhang Jie, have never done anything like this in the many years I have led troops in combat." Zhang Jie was conflicted in his heart. He did not want his group of new soldiers to suffer heavy losses, but he also did not want to fight such a useless battle.
"Can we go to Shapu City and hold on to Shapu City to delay the enemy?" Ding Kui showed his childish side.
"No." Liang Chong immediately opposed Ding Kui's suggestion. "The terrain of Shapu City is not dangerous. Although the city defense has been reinforced in the past year, it may face more than two legions of enemy troops, with an additional 10,000 to 20,000 defenders. There is no difference between the two armies, and it also makes it easier for the enemy to concentrate all their efforts to destroy us."
"We can't retreat even if we want to go to Shapu City. I don't want to lead a group of recruits who have just entered the battlefield into a desperate situation. Liangchong, call all the captains over for discussion. You also have to think carefully about what we should do next; Ding Kui, you go back first, let the troops rest and recuperate, and do not leak the military information discussed here." Zhang Jie is going to convene a military meeting to make a plan for the next move.
Back in the camp, Ao Yu saw Ding Kui looking distracted, so he asked: "Why? Are you unhappy that we didn't kill anyone today?"
"You think I am you, thinking about killing people all day long, so why would you use the bounty?" Ding Kui said contemptuously, "If you are not careful this time, you and I will be killed."
, it’s someone else who’s happy.”
"Hey, even you are worried about being killed by others, then the situation must be very bad." Ao Yu couldn't learn about human intrigues, but he learned one thing, which was to study Ding Kui's reaction, and found that only Ding Kui would worry
Things are basically very difficult.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to be quite clever," Ao Yu's words surprised Ding Kui, "The situation is indeed not good. If we block other people's way of survival, they will definitely use their full strength to deal with us.
The key battle in the Nanzhao Prefecture War Zone started near us. Both sides invested more than one million troops. There are only 10,000 people in our division here. The enemy can crush us into powder at any time. Our boss is not running and fighting yet.
Find a balance between them." He was not worried that telling Ao Yu the situation would violate Zhang Jie's military orders, because the soldiers and he were one, and telling the soldiers was not considered telling others.
"Just run away if you can't beat him. What balance point do you need to find?" Ao Yu couldn't understand after saying too much. In his heart, it was not a shame to be unable to defeat a powerful side.
"You, the grandson of the Azure Dragon God, can't be justified in running away without even meeting the enemy."
"It depends on who the enemy is. If he is as powerful as the magician who sealed me, I will definitely not meet him and will definitely run away as soon as possible."
"Of course it's not that powerful, it's just that there are many more people than us."
"Then you have to run away. I won't do such a disadvantageous thing by fighting with less."
"Okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't discuss this with you. You still have to run. The question is how to run. Don't mention this to others. Just know it in your heart." Ding Kui was defeated by Ao Yu again.
Stupid and straight.
######
There were seven or eight white-robed magicians in the sky above the Shaodian Army's frontier camp at Guanduguan. They were all casting magic to attack the military camp. More than half of the Lindi 16th Division responsible for garrisoning here had been killed and wounded, and all of their magician group had been killed.
The disparity in magical power between the two sides was so great that the magicians of the Shaodian Army could not even escape, and no one chose to surrender.
"One stick of incense, and I'll give you one more stick of incense. If you haven't captured the enemy's camp yet, ask the commander of the Sixth Army to come and see you." Helianyu frowned slightly.
She once again saw the tenacity of the Shaodian Army, but this time it was the local army, which was somewhat beyond her expectation.
"When the final general attacked the Duguan camp at Xiaxuan Pass, the enemy troops also defended to the end, and no one surrendered." Hong Jin followed He Lianyu dejectedly, and must have received a lot of scolding from He Lianyu.
"Kill them all if they don't surrender. Will you still be soft-hearted? No wonder you have never been able to advance to the elite corps. You will be scared if the enemy resists even a little bit." He Lianyu didn't give Hong Jin any good looks.
She sent Hong Jin to Xiaxuan Pass in the hope that the Ninth Army Corps could cause havoc in Huashan County and contain some of the Shaodian Army's troops. She didn't expect that Hong Jin would be driven back so quickly, forcing her to make strategic decisions.
