Four Hundred and Ninety-Eight: Attacking Fengyi County (6)
The sky was already dark, and thick dark clouds came from all directions, piled up densely, and gathered together to cover the sky.
When I looked up, I saw that it was like an upside-down black pot covering the earth. The howling wind blew through the grass, bringing with it bursts of muddy fragrance that was slightly unique to the earth. It had rained heavily a few days ago, and the pitted muddy ground had accumulated Full of unevaporated silt and water.
"Report - traces of marching were found ahead, suspected to be the enemy."
Several scouts reported back one by one. Meng Hun's expression turned serious after hearing this, and Li Yun's eyes were cold and stern, "Have we exposed our traces?"
Meng Hun frowned and sneered, "It may not be that we have been exposed, it is also possible that the enemy has other plans. Go and explore again!"
Scouts were sent out one by one, and news came back one by one. Meng Hun and Li Yun's expressions gradually relaxed.
"Based on our judgment, the march traces were from half a day ago. Judging from this route, they probably didn't notice us..." Meng Hun was riding on a horse. He didn't have time to wash up after several days of marching. He looked a little rough, and there were several deep wrinkles between his eyebrows. Mark of.
Li Yun's situation is better than Meng Hun's. He is still a fresh little meat. Even if it is rougher, it will only make him more flavorful.
Now that he has become the deputy captain of the Pioneer Battalion, Li Yun has become cold and serious.
"The Tsing Yi Army does not have a perfect source of supplies, so it can only rely on plundering local people to maintain military expenditures." Li Yun's eyes flashed with a fanatical fighting spirit. If this is really the latest supply of baggage for the Tsing Yi Army, then they are lucky, and they are destined to have a A good start.
He stretched out his tongue and licked his dry and flaky lips, and said, "I don't know what the situation is in Cheng'an County now, but baggage has always been the lifeblood of the army. If the Tsing Yi Army's supplies to Cheng'an County are cut off, Cheng'an County can be captured even if it is a siege. Down……"
There are four counties in Fengyi County, namely Xiangyang County owned by Jiang Pengji, Cheng'an County, Maolin County and Jiaoping County occupied by the Tsing Yi Army. Among them, Xiangyang County is remote but has the largest area among the four counties. Next is the most prosperous Cheng'an County.
Cheng'an County has a special geographical location. It can be attacked or defended. It has always been the center of Fengyi County. Due to various reasons, it was also the first target of the Tsing Yi Army. Now it has become one of their base camps. It is expected that There are more than 20,000 Tsing Yi troops stationed there.
Although we don’t know the specific situation of the Tsing Yi Army, according to previous spies’ reports, the Tsing Yi Army and the Red Lotus Sect have been fighting for a whole winter and are extremely short of resources in all aspects. Now if their food and grass supplies are intercepted, this can bring great advantages to the Chinese army’s offensive. Comes with great convenience.
Faced with this proposal, Meng Hun was also moved. Now he is the captain of the Pioneer Battalion.
It is up to him to decide whether to pursue the attack or not.
The vanguard battalion is responsible for the pathfinding mission of the entire army. It not only needs to detect the enemy's terrain, but also pay attention to the enemy's movements, disrupt the enemy's layout, and when the situation permits, it must also confront the enemy's vanguard troops to maximize the harvest results.
Now it is discovered that the supply team of the Tsing Yi Army will only cause trouble if they do not seize the opportunity and wait for the baggage to be transported to Ancheng County.
This is not to say that these baggage are powerful pills that can make the Tsing Yi Army go to the sky. This is related to the issue of morale.
If my lord sends troops to the city and the Tsing Yi Army gets this batch of food and grass supplies, their morale will be maintained at a relatively high level. It will be detrimental to oneself to engage in a tug-of-war of attrition with them and delay the time for the Tsing Yi Army to reinforce them.
Without this batch of supplies, the Tsing Yi Army would be exhausted. It would only take a few days of siege for their morale to plummet.
Without morale, the siege will go more smoothly.
Meng Hun believed in the siege equipment made by his lord, and expected that they would produce unexpected results in the first battle. However, it was inevitable that some people would be sacrificed during the siege, and it would be a good thing to reduce the number of soldiers who would die. He quickly made a decision.
"Chase!"
At the same time as he ordered the pursuit, he also sent scouts to pass this order to the Chinese army.
Although the vanguard battalion can wander around, it cannot follow the waves. If it is completely cut off from the Chinese army, it will be like an earthworm with its body cut off, with both ends short. If there is an encounter with the enemy at this time, it cannot take care of both ends. Then I will cry.
Facts have proved that Meng Hun is safer and more conservative than Jiang Pengji.
If Jiang Pengji is allowed to lead the vanguard camp, her style of painting will probably spread wherever she goes. The enemy is where her blade points. No matter how small the mosquito is, she will bite it down. If she sees one, she will kill one, and if she sees two, she will kill a pair... As for what the Chinese Army is, it’s none of my business.
When the enemy comes, take it upon yourself!
Therefore, Wei Ci couldn't understand how such a wandering guy could become one of the world's overlords.
It wasn't until his old master was killed by this man and he joined Peng Ji's camp that he knew the secret.
The vanguard battalion is a mad dog, and the Chinese army and logistics are also a group of militants. If they want to make a sneak attack, they may fall into a trap.
Later, a few counselors were arrested as nannies, and the situation became much better.
However, civil servants and counselors are all hard-working nannies, while military generals are still mad dogs running around with their hooves loose.
The people in the front are fighting while expanding the results, while the nannies in the back are cleaning up the mess everywhere.
It's like an old woman holding a milk bottle and trying hard to call her grandson to drink milk. The naughty grandson always has an expression of "doesn't listen to Wang Ba's chanting".
What can they do?
They are also desperate.
Wei Ci couldn't help but feel pity for Jiang Pengji's former civil servants... Oh, the current team seemed to be equally pitiful.
He secretly glanced at Jiang Pengji, who, upon hearing the news from the scout, showed a look of pity and envy.
"My lord needs to stay in the center of the army, and must not move lightly."
Wei Ci reminded her leisurely, as if reciting a spell.
"I haven't said anything yet." Jiang Pengji ordered the scout who came to report the news to go down, and turned her head and rolled her eyes at Wei Ci.
[Old Driver Lian Meng]: Yes, the host did not say anything, but your eyes clearly betrayed your thoughts.
[Starting Today]: Hahaha, the host just had an envious expression on his face, and suddenly he felt a little soft-hearted.
[Double Monthly Tickets]: Let the warlike host stay in the center of the army obediently, thinking about these literati is scary enough.
[Ask for Monthly Tickets]: I believe that the host is not someone who can be easily constrained, and cannot lead the vanguard camp, but she can take the initiative to attack the city. Who of you is looking forward to the host taking the lead in killing the enemy general when she challenges the generals?
Wei Ci is such a nasty person, he always brings up things that are not related to the topic.
However, he and the audience in the live broadcast room have sharp eyes.
Wei Ci said, "My lord wants to lead the vanguard camp, but this is impossible."
If this lord is allowed to lead the vanguard camp, Wei Ci is really not sure that he can lead the central army to find her position.
Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "How do you know it's impossible if you don't try it?"
Wei Ci pursed her lips and said, "Ci thinks that my lord will not be so willful."
