"You retreat too." Xiao Yuanjing turned around and said to the generals he brought.

The generals nodded one after another, and also bowed to Kong Linghu one by one, and turned around and walked out of the military tent.

Kong Linghu took a bite of the dish and said, "I don't know how much the prince knows about the situation on the front line. Do I need me to report it to the prince again?"

"I must not be accused of reporting. I am much less than General Kong. I am still a junior of General Kong." Xiao Yuanjing said: "What's more, you are not a subordinate of our Yan State, but a partner."

Listening to Xiao Yuanjing's words, Kong Linghu felt relieved, no matter how arrogant he was than Zhou Guo.

Xiao Yuanjing said: "I have basically grasped the situation here, how does General Kong want to fight this battle?"

Kong Linghu heard this and said, "Since the prince knows the situation on the front line, he must also know the place of Niujiao Town?"

Seeing him nodding, Kong Linghu continued: "There is a lot of food in Niujiao Town. As long as we take this place, we can win!"

"The army on both sides has a large number of troops. In my humble opinion, I am afraid that if we continue to fight like this, we may be a protracted war." Kong Linghu continued: "And the opponent's troops are 2 million troops. Our side, plus the 600,000 troops brought by the prince, have reached 2.4 million."

"To be honest, even the entire Kunlun Domain, such a large-scale battle is extremely rare. This will inevitably be a protracted war. In a short period of time, it may be difficult to easily capture the opponent."

Listening to Kong Linghu's words, Xiao Yuanjing nodded at this moment.

He also agreed with what Kong Linghu said, and he had thought about this question before coming here.

His views are not much different from those of Kong Linghu.

Just as the two were chatting and talking, Niujiao Town, sixty miles away from the two armies, welcomed several slightly unusual guests.

Lin Fan and Liu Boqing were walking on the streets of Niujiao Town at this time.

There are not many people on the streets of Niujiao Town. Nan Zhanxiong next to him whispered: "Many people here have moved away secretly, worried that they will be affected by the war. However, there are many elderly and children, which are not convenient for long journeys, so they stay."

Of course, there are not only the elderly and children here.

Many elderly children, or children's parents, have never left.

Lin Fan nodded. In this era, it is not easy to leave his hometown and travel through mountains and rivers.

Lin Fan looked at the street, and there were many expressionless people.

These people looked quite ugly, and Nan Zhanxiong next to him continued: "In fact, half of Niujiao Town is a warehouse."

"This town was a granary specially used by Jiang Kingdom to store grain about four hundred years ago."

"The Jiang Kingdom was once a famous grain-producing country, and it often sold grain to the Yan Kingdom."

"Niujiao was originally the name of this granary. Here, many elite soldiers of Jiang Kingdom were guarding and guarding the girls from many nearby villages met and got married."

"Thirty-five years ago, a powerful minister in Jiang changed the ox horn granary from public to private, and included it in his own name, and sold the food here not only to Yan State, but also to many merchants who came and went to and from exchanges."

"Over time, merchants gathered here, and the exhibition became better and better, and gradually became a small town."

"So half of the town behind this is basically a warehouse for storing grain."

Listening to Nan Zhanxiong telling the history of Niujiao Town next to him, Lin Fan also nodded.

The reason why he came to Liu Boqing and Nan Zhanxiong in person was naturally a little worried about the situation on the front line.

Come and have a look.

Liu Boqing said calmly with his hands behind his back: "Speaking of this Niujiao Town can be used well, there is a way to solve the Zhou army."

Hearing Liu Boqing's words, Lin Fan's eyes lit up and his eyes looked at Liu Boqing.

Liu Boqing said slowly: "Do all the food here secretly, and then let the Zhou army take the bait and come here to station it."

"Cheng Zhichuan got this town. Even if Yan State blocked his food supplies in a short period of time, he would not be in a hurry to fight. He would only devote more energy to blocking the food of Xiao Yuanjing and Kong Linghu's army."

"When he gets Niujiao Town, his grain line has been blocked by us." Liu Boqing said with a smile: "When he sees that the granary here is empty, what expression do you think he will have?"

When Nan Zhanxiong heard this, he thought to himself, "Is it a pity that Lin Fan calls you Master!"

It turns out that it’s not a family, so the saying that you don’t enter the family is correct.

Lin Fan next to him also felt that what Liu Boqing said made sense. He nodded and said, "Since that's the case, Master, why don't you poison these foods and directly poison the two million troops of Zhou?"

Nan Zhanxiong: "..."

Well, this is better than the best.

Liu Boqing shook his head and said, "Where are you going to find poison that can poison two million people? Can you get such a huge dose in a short time?"

Hearing Liu Boqing's words, Lin Fan nodded, then began to think about how feasible the plan Liu Boqing said was.

Lin Fan asked: "There are a lot of food here. At this time, there are many spies from the Zhou army near Niujiao Town. It is probably not easy to destroy these foods quietly."

"It's okay to prepare tinea oil in these granaries in advance. When Cheng Zhichuan arrives, just burn all the food with a fire. Aren't your previous subordinates already preparing to do such a thing?"

Lin Fan did instruct Nan Zhanxiong to send his spies into Niujiao Town before.

If Cheng Zhichuan wants to get this food, it will be ruined.

But what Lin Fan thought at that time was purely using the method of self-protection.

I haven't thought about using it to actively lure Cheng Zhichuan.

However, Lin Fan thought carefully and found that the feasibility of this method is indeed very high!

Lin Fan's eyes flashed a few rays of light and he said, "This method is good!"

...

"How is the situation checking?" Cheng Zhichuan sat in the camp, his mood also showed a bit of anxiety.

The deputy general next to him said, "Report to the general, after investigation, the food in Niujiao Town can at least support our army's food and drink for three months."

Cheng Zhichuan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where is Kong Linghu, is there any news?"
