"Report! General, Pinghe County was attacked by the Ning Army and the east city gate has been lost. The general is asking the general to send reinforcements as soon as possible!"

"Report! Anguan was captured by the Ning army last night. Only a few hundred of the two thousand defenders retreated in panic. The life or death of the leading general is unknown."

"Report! General Zuoying Guan has an urgent message. A large-scale Ning army has been mobilized in front of Zuoying. It seems that there is an attack plan. General Guan asked for instructions whether to hold on or take the initiative to attack!"

"Report! Report urgently from the right camp. There seems to be a large number of Liang soldiers appearing around."

"Report..."

…

This is Haiyundao, where the Long Army Duguxin's army is stationed. Since the last defeat, Duguxin has been hammered here like a nail for more than half a year, not taking a step forward but not retreating an inch.

In fact, Dugu Xin has been very comfortable in the past six months. He is not in a hurry to attack the Ning army to win. On the contrary, he only needs to defend the Haiyun Road and several states. What really wants a quick victory is the Ning army on the opposite side.

But today, the uncle was very busy. Countless military reports were delivered to his desk from the front line like snowflakes. Almost all the dozens of military camps and garrisoned cities set up by the Long Army on the border were attacked by the Ning Army.

sudden attack.

Up to now, half of the military camps have been captured by the Ning army, and as many generals have been killed in the battle. The Long army is completely at a disadvantage.

This was obviously a long-planned sneak attack by the Chang family.

Dugu Xin walked back and forth in the tent with a sad face, and shouted in a gloomy voice:

"Why, can anyone tell why the Chang family is attacking like crazy! This is not like Chang Hantang's style of play!"

"One by one, let's talk!"

There were several generals in the military tent. Seeing Dugu Xin's anger, they were all so frightened that they became silent. How could they know the reason for Ning's sudden attack?

This time, the Ning Army's offensive methods were nothing new. They relied on their superiority in numbers and combat effectiveness to defeat military camps head-on, with almost no casualties.

This would never be allowed to the aging Chang Hantang, so Duguxin found this offensive very strange.

Duguxin's right-hand man, Longxi military general Xu Zhichen, said softly from the side:

"General, is it possible that the Long Army is short of rations and urgently needs a victory to stabilize its morale, so Chang Hantang made this move?"

"Well, that's possible."

Dugu Xin frowned slightly and said softly: "Grain has always been the weak point of the Ning Army. The purpose of attacking us may also be to occupy our granary and occupy the general's grain."

"Hmm~"

Xu Zhichen also nodded, this is the most likely.

"This makes sense." Dugu Xin said with a happy smile: "Since Ning Jun wants to win quickly, we might as well slow down a little and see if they can't calm down and reveal any flaws.

"

Xu Zhichen raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean, general?"

"Hehe~"

Dugu Xin's face was filled with a treacherous smile: "Inform the entire army to stick to the city and not leave the house. Doesn't Ning Jun want a quick victory? Then we just let him attack one city and one place to exhaust their physical strength.

"

"promise!"

Xu Zhichen nodded in response. Although there were not enough troops to fight against the Long Army, wouldn't it be more than enough to defend the city?

Finally, Dugu Xin raised a finger and said casually: "As long as Ning's army stops having food and grass, they won't have the energy to fight again. By then we can turn defeat into victory!"

"Hehe~"

Xu Zhichen also laughed out loud and said with a ferocious smile: "General, you are really clever~"

…

Night falls slowly, and summer comes late in the Central Plains. There is still a breeze in the night sky, which is very pleasant and comfortable blowing on the cheeks. However, the moonlight today is very dark, and it is almost impossible to see any light.

There is a fire dragon shining in the darkness on the vast wild plain. The fire dragon continues to spread along the river into the distance. This is the camp where the Chang family's army has set up, stretching for more than ten miles.

Looking around, the fire dragon winds endlessly, which is spectacular, and the Ningjun camp is full of power!

But if you look carefully, you will find that there are no traces of people moving in such a large military camp, and there is not even a trace of noise. There is only the light of the fire swaying slightly in the military tents.

The military camp, which was more than ten miles long, was already empty.

In an open field less than ten miles away from the Ning army camp, there is a group of elite cavalry with as many as five thousand people hidden.

The cavalry stood on horseback with stern eyes, hiding their figures in the night, without lighting a torch.

Who knows if there are any Long Army spies nearby? The torches are too conspicuous in the darkness.

The leader, Chang Huaiyi, fell to the rear with a calm expression, paying attention to the movements around him.

Chang Huaiyi personally commanded the troops to attack the Long Army this time. He did not disappoint Chang Hantang. This battle was very fruitful. As many as 30,000 to 40,000 Long Army soldiers were annihilated, and a lot of military supplies were seized.

However, the current Ning army was obviously not in the mood to check how many supplies had been seized. Instead, they quickly turned and retreated, losing all their luggage.

The soldiers lowered their horses and stood silently, holding guns on their horses. A faint murderous aura emerged in the night.

Except for the elite group under Chang Huaiyi, the rest of the Ning army on all fronts had already retreated. At this time, they may have gone dozens of miles. Chang Huaiyi stepped forward to lead the army and cut off the rear.

A cavalry general walked up to Chang Huaiyi and asked cautiously:

"General, why do we quietly retreat when we clearly have a great victory? Isn't this a bit unreasonable?

At the end of last night, I noticed that the strength of the Long Army was not large. If we pursue the victory, we can achieve greater results."

The general was very puzzled. Shouldn't he take advantage of your illness to kill you at this time? It would be better to gather the troops and catch the Long army by surprise.

Chang Huaiyi glanced at him with an indifferent expression and said lightly:

"Just follow the orders, you don't have to worry about anything else."

"promise!"

The subordinate immediately stood up straight and said no more nonsense. He heard the indifference in Chang Huaiyi's tone and knew that there must be interests and dangers that they did not understand.

"Da da da~"

I don't know how long it took, but a group of scouts shot over from a distance, and a series of horse hooves sounded very clear.

Chang Huaiyi looked at the visitor and asked in a deep voice:

"How about it?"

The scout said breathlessly: "General, the several large camps in front of the Long Army have been inspected. There is no sign of secretly sending troops for the time being. Everything is as usual."

"good!"

Chang Huaiyi's hanging heart finally relaxed, he waved his hand and shouted:

"The army retreats! Pay attention to the surrounding areas!"

Chang Huaiyi was afraid that the Long army would find something strange and secretly attack him from behind.

"No~"

"promise!"

In response to the cheers one after another, thousands of Chang family elites disappeared into the dark night, and the army rushed all the way towards Tianning Road.

Chang Huaiyi took one last look at the burning camp and said coldly:
Chapter completed!
