Chapter 1030: The Method of Breaking the City
After knowing that his army was trapped in Hejian County, Yuan Shang was still a little worried.
However, not long after, Xu Huang, Taishi Ci and others brought 20,000 cavalrymen to Jizhou.
With the support of Xu Huang, Tai Shi Ci and others, Yuan Shang, who was still a little anxious, was completely relieved.
The troops under him were only about 50,000. No matter how many people there were, he could not support so many soldiers in Jizhou.
But the arrival of Xu Huang, Taishi Ci and others is different.
At least Yuan Shangke knew that Liu Zheng had sent people to support Jizhou, and their chances of defending Jizhou were greatly increased.
However, before the army of Xu Huang, Tai Shi Ci and others arrived at the Hejianjiao support front, a major war was breaking out here in Hejian County.
After several consecutive attacks, they failed to conquer Lecheng County.
Yuan Xi and these Wuhuan people also began to become more and more impetuous.
After several attacks failed to capture the city, the Wuwan people couldn't stand it either.
Many soldiers died, but they did not get any benefits.
"Yuan Xi! I trust you and came to Jizhou with you. What's going on now?"
Tadun angrily questioned Yuan Xi.
The current Wuhuan is no longer the same as the previous few years.
The earlier Wuhuan tribe was divided into several small tribes, each forming its own formation.
But later, after they unified the enemy to Yuan Shao, some other small tribes were incorporated.
After Qiu Liju became the Khan of Wuhuan, he brought some benefits to the Wuhuan people, at least integrating the entire Wuhuan army, which made the Wuhuan people stronger for a while.
However, Qiu Liju was old and felt that he was unable to do anything a few years ago and his health was getting worse day by day. After becoming the Shanyu of Wuhuan, he died of illness a few years later.
A young son was left behind.
Lou Ban was in charge of these Wuhuan soldiers and horses, and Qiu Liju had another follower, this was Tadun, who was the actual leader of the Wuhuan people.
Although Lou Ban is nominal king, Lou Ban is still young and does not have much ability to take charge. In addition, nomadic people believe that the strong are respected.
Tadun is better in the hearts of the Wuwan people. For the Wuwan people, only by obeying Tadun's command can he lead Wuwan and move towards glory.
The army of tens of thousands of Wuhuans is now obeying Tadun, so Tadun naturally wants to give them an explanation.
At this moment, listening to Tadun’s complaints, Yuan Xi himself was also not having a good time.
A hint of gloom appeared on his face that was not old from time to time.
Faced with several unfavorable situations, Yuan Xi wanted to change, but judging from the current situation, it was difficult.
He looked at Tian Feng, the strategist whom he relied on the most.
Tian Feng is the number one strategist under Yuan Xi. It was Tian Feng that Yuan Xi was able to live in a corner of Youzhou and never been eliminated.
Tian Feng felt the look that Yuan Xi had cast for him and knew it was his turn to speak.
"Lord, there is not a complete solution to destroy this Lecheng County. It's just that we need to sacrifice some people."
In the past few days, the two sides have lost a lot of people. If Tian Feng had stood up early to speak, he was afraid that the sacrificed people would not have sacrificed in vain.
But now, it's not too late.
"What are Mr. Tian Feng's tricks?"
Yuan Xi hurriedly asked Tian Feng, and even Tadun, who had originally accused Yuan Xi, was attracted by Tian Feng's words.
He also raised his head and looked at Tian Feng, wanting to see what Tian Feng was talking about.
Then Tian Feng knew that he could not delay any longer, so he said everything he wanted to say.
"Lord, General Tadun, you are thinking about breaking the city. Since that's the case, the purpose should not be so obvious."
"You can change your mind. There are nearly 20,000 troops in Lecheng County and 30,000 troops outside the city. The troops gathered in Hejian County should be all the troops under Yuan Shang."
"If we aim to deal with the people here in Hejian or the people in Jizhou, it will be beneficial to us to eliminate their troops."
"Since we can't deal with these defenders in the city, why not change the target and point our spearhead at the tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city."
Tian Feng said this to Tadun and Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi frowned.
He muttered softly.
"We're going to target people outside the city?"
"Yes, the defenders in the city rely on the strength of the city walls. It is not easy for us to fight over it. Even if we can really defeat it, the losses will be great. However, the 30,000 soldiers outside the city have no advantage. They only have a simple camp outside the city."
The men led by Wen Chou came to support Lecheng County, but because Lecheng County was surrounded by Yuan Xi's men, it was impossible for Wen Chou to run into the city.
So I have been looking for a relatively high terrain outside the city and temporarily set up camps. The purpose is to use the high places of the mountains to reduce the lethality brought to them by the enemy cavalry.
Wen Chou himself is also a cavalryman, and he knows a little bit about how to deal with cavalry.
However, despite this, Wen Chou was still not sure about facing tens of thousands of enemy troops.
And this is even better for Tian Feng to know.
Tian Feng’s advice to Yuan Xi and Tadun was to first attack the people of Wen Chou.
"Well? What Mr. Tian Feng said is indeed reasonable. Anyway, our goal is not just a Hejian. Since it is the entire Jizhou, it is perfect to kill all the troops and horses, and it is absolutely okay to destroy these people outside the city first."
"Yes, General Tadun, you retreat your army from outside the city and head straight to the army outside the city. I expected that the troops in the city would definitely leave the city to support the troops under the full attack of our army. Then we will use a backhand strike and return to the city."
Before Wen Chou's reinforcements came, Tian Feng might not have been able to think of such a move for them, and attack the world.
But now that Wen Chou appears, it gives Yuan Xi and others a chance.
After all, this plan is perfect.
If Jiang Qi in the city comes out of the city to support him, then Yuan Xi and Tadun will use the cavalry to quickly counterattack Lecheng County and enter the city.
If Jiang Qi didn't come out of the city, they might as well kill the soldiers and horses outside the city.
After directly defeating the 30,000 troops outside the city, Jizhou, which had no troops, became a treasure for Yuan Xi.
As soon as the plan was released, it immediately received the approval of Yuan Xi and Tadun.
