376: Acting according to plan, Liu Yi is dissatisfied!
After occupying Xuan Dou County, Zhao Yun arranged for a trusted lieutenant to manage the entire county temporarily. Fortunately, Xuan Dou County is relatively small and it is the winter season, so nothing major will happen.
But in order to ensure that the city does not lose Zhao Yun, he also left a thousand Youzhou iron cavalry to help guard the city.
The next step is to make a surprise attack on Xiangping City.
Xiangping City is located in the north of Liaodong County, only more than 100 miles away from Wangping County in Xuandu County.
The sudden heavy snowfall made Gongsun Du think that Youzhou would stop sending troops, and his center of defense was also in the west of Xiangping, and he did not arrange guards near Xuandu County at all.
So much so that the scouts sent by Zhao Yun did not find a checkpoint or inspection team until they reached the foot of Xiangping City.
After getting the news, Zhao Yun and Tian Yu got together to discuss countermeasures.
Tian Yu said that the weather is getting colder and colder, and although the soldiers are equipped with sweaters and pants, "Five Seven Zeros" cannot stay in the wild for a long time overnight.
Therefore, he suggested that the attack on Xiangping City should not be like before, and let the soldiers lie in ambush in the field and wait for the opportunity.
After hearing this, Zhao Yun also expressed his approval. Now they hope that Ping County is the base, and both soldiers and war horses can get a good rest, and Wangping County is not too far from Xiangping.
As long as the information is accurate, they can completely attack.
At this time, Zhao Yun pointed to the topographic map, where Gongsun Du laid out the three lines of defense.
"If you send more scouts to visit the horses, it's best to sneak into the city to check the specific situation over there. Xiangping is a big city. Even if Gongsun Du didn't expect us to touch this place, it must be guarded tightly. It seems that we can only wait until Le Only after entering the general’s side will you have the chance to make a surprise attack!”
"The last general will send someone to deliver a letter to the western side of Liaoning, and let General Le Jin begin to feign attack!"
After Tian Yu finished speaking, he turned around and left the room, while Zhao Yun called the captain of the scout camp.
"Let your people expand the scope of the investigation a little more, it is best to sneak into Xiangping City to find out some news about the Liaodong Army's deployment!
After listening to the small school, he also clasped his fists and led the order to assign tasks.
A day later, the scouts who entered the city of Xiangping found a large group of people carrying supplies to the east of the city.
The east of the city is the rear of the Liaodong army. It stands to reason that the city should deliver supplies to the three lines of defense on the west line.
Could it be that Gongsun Du wants to give up Xiangping City?
The leader of the scout team sent someone to follow the food delivery unit to find out where the other side was going to deliver the food supplies.
In addition, they quickly sent someone to send the news here back to Wangping County, and asked the coach Zhao Yun to make a decision.
At the same time, 20,000 soldiers led by Le Jin also launched a feint attack on the first line of defense of the Liaodong Army.
There are also five thousand Youzhou iron cavalry detours to the side and rear of the second or even third line of defense.
The Liaodong side never thought that the opponent who was cold and freezing would not be able to fight, so they didn't take it too seriously at first.
But when the rain of tens of thousands of arrows smashed down from the beginning, they knew that the Youzhou soldiers seemed to be coming for real.
"Hurry up and send someone to Xiangping to ask for help, and it is said that the main force of Youzhou soldiers is attacking!"
The generals who defended the three lines of defense had all seen the strength of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry, and in addition to the cold weather, none of them dared to go out to meet the enemy.
He could only hide in the fortress while waiting for the latest order from Xiangping.
There are also some Liaodong generals who are lucky, feeling that they have a camp to shield the wind and snow, but the soldiers are still cold and can't go to the battlefield, and the other party should not be able to last long.
However, Le Jin led the army to attack for a long time and did not retreat. On the contrary, he built a camp opposite them, and it seemed that he did not intend to return to Liaoxi County.
In Xiangping City, Gongsun Duzheng and Liu Yi continued to discuss the matter of moving supplies. At this time, the latest battle report was sent from the western defense line.
"What! The Youzhou Army actually launched an attack in spite of the severe cold, which is... a bit unreasonable!"
Gongsun Du thought to himself that even if Youzhou's military discipline was strict, the cold weather would still bring a lot of non-combat attrition to the opponent. Wouldn't the opponent's generals be afraid of mutiny?
After reading the battle report, Liu Yi frowned, "My lord, look at this one, this is from the second line of defense, they said that the soldiers of Youzhou seem to be wearing a very special clothing to keep out the cold, is it because of this reason that the other party will Attacking in the harsh winter?
When Gongsun Du heard this, he immediately felt the pressure in his heart. If the severe cold also blocked the footsteps of the Youzhou soldiers from charging, it would only be a matter of time before they attacked Xiangping City.
"General Liu Yi quickly mobilized the soldiers in the city, and he must transfer all the materials in the city to Ping County, Xi'an within five days!
"Send an order to the Western Front, telling them to stick to their respective camps, and not to confront the other side head-on. As long as the camp is not lost, the soldiers of Youzhou still dare not venture in! 99
In order to buy more time for Xiangping City to transfer materials, Gongsun Du can only choose to protect the car and abandon the soldiers....
When Liu Yi heard that Gongsun Du was determined to give up, but Xiangping City was the richest city in Liaodong County, and it was impossible to bring everything to Xi'an Ping County even with the transfer of materials.
Such as the real estate and fertile land here. He agreed to prepare for the retreat in advance, but giving up Xiangping City without any resistance made him a little confused.
So Liu Yi opened his mouth and suggested: "My lord...Although Youzhou soldiers are strong, but...we also have 70,000 or 80,000 people here, and the walls of Xiangping City are thick, so there will be no problem in defending it for a year and a half!"
But Gongsun Du shook his head affirmatively, "Does General Liu Yi still have a chance? Last time, Youzhou Iron Cavalry killed 20,000 of our soldiers with only 5,000 people. Although we have some advantages in defending the city, if the other party only needs 5,000 people How to deal with it if it is not besieged?" 5
"...If the Youzhou Army sends other troops to capture other counties in Liaodong, I'm afraid it will take less than a month, and there will only be an isolated city in Xiangping left in the entire Liaodong County. Lelang County will be in crisis."
Gongsun Du's meaning was very clear. He didn't want to fight head-on with the Youzhou soldiers. He wanted to avoid its edge first. When the main Youzhou soldiers retreated, he was uniting Sanhan, Fuyu and other foreign tribes to counterattack Xiangping City.
In fact, 1.8 Gongsun Du was not a very ambitious prince. He only had the four counties in eastern Liaoning, and attacking western Liaoning was just a momentary fever.
Now that he saw the strength of Youzhou soldiers, he only wanted to preserve his strength, and he no longer wanted to be enemies with the powerful Liu family.
Liu Yi was not stupid, he heard Gongsun Du's thoughts, but he had to retreat without a fight with nearly 100,000 soldiers, which made him feel that the loyal ones were really incompetent.
It's just that he didn't dare to show his dissatisfaction, and as a subordinate, he didn't dare to raise objections, he sighed secretly and took the order to prepare.
Ask for flowers!! Ask for tickets!!!! Ask for custom!!!!!.
