Chai Lingde stood blankly on the city wall of Nanhuamen City, staring blankly at the camp of Zhao Hai's army below, and also stared blankly at the passage leading to the bottom of the mountain.
In order to prepare for Zhao Hai's attack, they originally dug a lot of trenches on this passage. These trenches were all within the attack range of Nanhuamen City. They wanted to prevent Zhao Hai and others from attacking the city.
If you don't face these trenches, more people will die.
This arrangement seemed really good before, because if Zhao Hai and the others wanted to attack Nanhuamen City, these trenches would be enough for them.
But what makes Chai Lingde stunned now is that in addition to the trenches they dug, there are countless trenches outside the attack range of Nanhuamen City, and these trenches were all dug by Zhao Hai and others, and even
Yu Zhaohai and the others are still digging.
Chai Lingde has been standing blankly on the city wall since he got the news. Only now does he truly understand the horror of Zhao Hai. It's terrible. It's so terrible. It seems that every step of his plan is in Zhao Hai's hands.
As expected, isn’t this scary enough?
Chai Lingde wrote a letter to the city lord, wanting to leave the city and camp at the foot of the mountain. This way he would not have to worry about the water source, and could also hold Zhao Hai back. As for Zhao Hai's attack, Chai Lingde had already planned it.
Inside, Chai Lingde just wanted to keep Zhao Hai and the others out of Zhuhua Mountain, because he was afraid that Zhao Hai and the others would enter the Nanhua city-state and cause destruction.
This plan is good, it can even be said to be very good, but now it looks not good at all, because if they want to attack from the city, they must first fill in the ditch they dug before. This is not good at all.
Difficult, they have their own bed slaves to protect them. Filling those trenches shouldn't kill too many people, but now that Zhao Hai and the others are digging trenches, they have a headache. If they want to go down the mountain, they have to face Zhao Hai and the others.
Those trenches dug by Zhao Hai and the others could not have been blocked by bed slaves. By then, their army of 100,000 people would have to watch Zhao Hai and his army of bed slaves attack. How many of them would survive then?
This is what surprised Chai Lingde. He found that Zhao Hai seemed to know about his plan, so they had already blocked him before they could carry out the plan. Now if Chai Lingde is here
If he had followed his plan, he would have died somehow.
Shangguancheng also walked up to Chai Lingde at this time. He glanced outside the city, sighed, and said in a deep voice: "General. The city lord has replied. He does not agree with our plan and asks us to withdraw to the city.
Retreat to Huanhe City and set up defenses. As long as we can hold on there for about a month, reinforcements from other city-states will arrive, and then we won't have to worry about Zhao Hai and the others."
Chai Lingde nodded. Then he turned to look at Shangguancheng and said, "Okay, let's go back. Even if we leave the city now, it's impossible, so we might as well retreat earlier."
Shangguancheng nodded and said in a deep voice: "Then I will make arrangements for us to retreat as soon as possible. If we wait, we will really have no water, and it will be troublesome to retreat at that time."
Chai Lingde nodded and said: "Okay. Let's make arrangements. We will leave tomorrow. If we can't take away the things in the city, we will not take them with us and burn them directly. We must not keep them for Zhao Hai."
Shangguancheng nodded and said: "Yes, I understand, I will arrange it." Chai Lingde nodded and waved his hand, and Shangguancheng retreated. Chai Lingde turned to look at Zhao Hai again,
He murmured: "I won't make it easy for you, absolutely not."
At this time, the reaction in Nanhuamen City was also noticed by Liu Hong. As soon as he saw the people in Nanhuamen City starting to pack their things, Liu Hong immediately knew that the people in Nanhuamen City were afraid of retreating.
He never thought that the people from Nanhuamen City were going to attack them, so he immediately returned to the camp and asked to see Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai called Liu Hong into the tent and said in a deep voice: "How is it? What's the reaction in Nanhuamen City?"
Liu Hong said in a deep voice: "Leader, they have started to pack up their things and it seems they are going to retreat. What should we do?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "It's good to retreat. If we retreat, we can go directly over Zhuhua Mountain. Liu Hong, you don't have to monitor them now. You can immediately lead your reconnaissance team and go directly over Zhuhua Mountain."
Enter Nanhua City State and draw me a map of Nanhua City State carefully. At the same time, you must also see where their army is retreating. By the way, if there is a suitable ambush location, you must report back immediately.
, go ahead.”
Liu Hong responded, immediately exited the tent, and then led his reconnaissance team to leave the camp. As soon as he left, Zhao Hai immediately called the other generals into the Chinese army's tent.
After everyone sat down, Zhao Hai glanced at everyone and said: "I want to tell you some bad news. I hope everyone is mentally prepared." After saying this, Zhao Hai paused and glanced at everyone. Everyone heard Zhao Hai
When Hai told the bad news, his face became serious and he looked at Zhao Hai intently. Zhao Hai looked at their looks and sighed: "The bad news is that our trenches may have been dug in vain."
It's no use, the people in Nanhuamen City are probably going to retreat."
When Zhao Hai said this, everyone was stunned. Then they understood immediately that Zhao Haixue was teasing them. The people in Nanhuamen City were about to retreat. In other words, Zhao Hai's plan was successful.
The people couldn't hold on any longer and were about to run away. They took down Nanhuamen City without spending a single soldier!
When they thought of this, everyone couldn't help but get excited. Zhao Hai looked at them and laughed loudly and said: "Okay, everyone, tell me to stop digging trenches. Those who are tired should come back and rest for two days."
Come on, then we can go over Zhuhua Mountain, let’s make arrangements.”
Everyone responded at the same time, then stood up, gave Zhao Hai a fist, turned and left, but their hearts were extremely excited. You must know that most of these generals had participated in the last Nianjiu and Shengyuan.
During the great battle, they were blocked from Nanhuamen City and finally returned with a disastrous defeat.
At that time, they thought of many ways and used many tricks, but Nanhuamen City was like an iron bar. No matter what they thought of, they just remained unmoved. But what about now? Now Zhao Hai has not spent a single soldier.
It only took less than a month for the people in Nanhuamen City to evacuate on their own. They didn't even get a single injured person. This gap was really too big.
Many generals are feeling bitter now. They really have no choice but to smile bitterly. They were defeated so miserably last time because they couldn't capture Nanhuamen City. If they had used Zhao Hai's moves last time,
The water supply to Nanhua City Gate was also cut off, and the opponent had only two choices: to leave the city for a decisive battle, or to withdraw from Nanhua Gate City and get out of the way of Zhuhua Mountain. No matter which outcome, they would not be defeated so miserably.
The gap, the gap is too big. Compared with Nian Yijiu's ability in military command, compared with Zhao Hai, the gap is really too big. They don't even want to admit it.
Now Zhao Hai and his army have stopped digging trenches. On the contrary, they have begun to prepare for filling the trenches. When the soldiers heard that the newly dug trenches would be filled in again, they did not complain at all. They had no reason.
To complain and defeat the enemy if you can dig trenches, who is willing to fight the enemy with a knife? Now when the soldiers heard that the enemies in Nanhuamen City were retreating, they won, and they were all very happy.
But you know that the last time the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Anti-Holy Court Alliance were defeated at Nanhuamen City, there were countless casualties. They were a little worried about the battle here in Nanhuamen City before, but now they heard that the battle was over.
, they won, how could they be unhappy about this.
Chai Lingde was no longer in the mood to care about what Zhao Hai and the others thought. They packed up their things for the day, and left Nanhuamen City directly the next day, retreating to Nanhua City State, preparing to go to Huanhe City in a
Organize a line of defense to block Zhao Hai's attack.
Zhao Hai soon knew the news of Chai Lingde's departure. Needless to say, he only needed to see the soaring fire in Nanhuamen City to know that Chai Lingde and the others could not take away some large weapons.
They could only burn it, and the sky-high flames were naturally a signal to let them know that they had retreated.
After Zhao Hai saw the fire, he also sent Wukong-level experts to take a look in the sky and found that the defenders in Nanhuamen City had indeed left, but the city was now a sea of fire and no one could get in.
Zhao Hai was not in a hurry and began to let the army slowly fill in the trenches dug by them and the defenders in Nanhuamen City. At the same time, he also asked the army to dig a river for the water flowing out of the cave.
, so that the water can flow to other places without blocking their way, and it will not form a river at the foot of Zhuhua Mountain when they come back, which would be troublesome, so what he has to do is not yet
There is no need to rush over Zhuhua Mountain, just wait.
After several days of filling trenches and digging river channels, their way forward was finally clear, and the fire in Nanhuamen City was extinguished. Zhao Hai and the others could finally leave.
These days, Zhao Hai also received some news from Liu Hong and the others. They did not find a suitable location for an ambush, but the terrain map was drawn. At the same time, they also discovered Chai Lingde's goal. They established a base in Huanhe City.
It's a rather troublesome thing to have a line of defense.
Huanhe City is on the other side of the Huanhe River. The current of the Huanhe River is very fast, and the water surface is very wide and deep. Except for using boats and bridges, it is impossible for soldiers to wade across the river. Originally, there were rivers on the Huanhe River.
There is a bridge, it is an iron lock bridge, but the iron lock bridge has been demolished by Chai Lingde and the others, making it even more difficult for Zhao Hai and the others to cross.
In addition to demolishing bridges, Chai Lingde also did another thing, which was to rob food! That’s right, Chai Lingde just robbed food, and it wasn’t other people’s food that he robbed, but the people of Nanhua city-state and Huanhe River.
In other words, Chai Lingde ordered that all the food of his people be robbed, and he also abandoned them on the Huanhe River. This news really surprised Zhao Hai, and he also
