Chapter 284 The battle report comes up to draw a big cake
Several brothers he knew from Jingkou were all present. Wang Mi stretched his muscles and then turned to Liu Yu: "Jinnu, how is the situation in Xiangyang City?"
"There is still an hour before dawn, how can we spend this time?"
In front of Liu Yu and others, Wang Mi stopped bluffing and exposed all his bosses.
Jinu stroked his chin, and Zhiyuan would ask about the situation in Xiangyang City. This was something Liu Yu had already thought of.
However, where to start talking about this topic is really difficult.
Liu Yu, who was always quick to talk to others, did not speak immediately. Wang Mi felt that the guess in his heart had been confirmed 70% to 80%.
"Slave, is something bad going on?"
"How can this be?"
"Zhiyuan, you are too worried!"
"The situation on the Xiangyang City Tower is so critical. If the slaves and others can escape safely, what do we have to fear?"
He Mai became more and more excited as he spoke. He turned around and pointed towards the Xiangyang Tower: "Our offensive is so fierce now, and the battle situation is completely in our favor. Why do you have to say such depressing words!"
In He Mai's view, the current Beifu soldiers were in full swing and in good condition. He really couldn't figure out why Wang Mi had such worrying remarks.
Doesn't this shake the morale of the military?
Furthermore, there is absolutely no such possibility.
"What Secretary Wang said is absolutely true. My subordinates believe that the Di Qin defenders may be leaving the city to fight soon!"
Liu Yu said this, which somewhat surprised everyone. Even Tan Pingzhi, who rushed down from the tower with him, opened his eyes wide and looked at him in confusion.
"Ji Nu, why do you say this?"
"We just rushed all the way down, it was obviously very smooth!"
"Based on this, the two of us thought of going together!"
He Mai excitedly took Lao Tan's hand, what a bosom friend!
Finally found!
Like He Mai, Lao Tan was also a born optimist. He only saw them beating the Di Qin soldiers on the tower to pieces before him, and Liu Yu returned victorious, but he never imagined that in Xiangyang
The hundreds of thousands of troops in the city will definitely not sit still and wait to die after learning that they have suffered such a heavy loss.
A larger-scale battle is approaching!
"We can't simply think like this. Di Qin has a strong military force. The reason why they haven't left the city to fight now is just because they were knocked unconscious by our continuous offensive."
"However, such a good situation will definitely not last. Once they figure out our strength, I think it is almost done now. The Di Qin soldiers in the city will definitely counterattack. By then, it will be difficult for us to handle
Got it!"
The current situation of the Beifu soldiers can be said to be a dilemma. If Liu Yu and the others had not been sent to attack the city and cause such chaos, the Qin army might have discovered their true and false intentions and left the city to sweep them away.
It can be said that Liu Yu and his team's feat of climbing the city bought time for the Beifu soldiers below the city to a large extent.
Before there were sound fortifications under the city, such a group of fierce men dared to climb up the edge of the dilapidated turret and fight. Not only did they inflict a heavy blow to the Qin soldiers, but they were also able to escape intact.
Anyone who sees this situation will have a question mark in their head.
"In your opinion, what kind of arrangements will Fu Rui and the others make next?"
In fact, Wang Mi has already begun to think about retreating. The Beifu soldiers near Qiaoshan have not yet arrived, and he has to find a way out for the people he leads.
We can't let these people die in battle outside Xiangyang City!
"I think they will soon send a small group of cavalry out of the city to test. However, because there are so many soldiers in Xiangyang City, they don't care at all about stalemate with us."
"You mean, in the next step, Di Qin will not release all the cavalry to compete with us?" Wang Mi held his breath nervously. The answer to this question is very important and will affect the next one.
The strategic direction of time.
Liu Yu also realized the seriousness of the problem and was very cautious when answering the questions.
"According to my observation, when the first wave of cavalry comes out, the number of cavalry should not be large. Because the Qin soldiers in the city still think that there are many Beifu soldiers outside the city. It is for this reason that the Qin soldiers have not sent out cavalry for a long time.
Challenge out of town."
"According to common sense, they should have sent troops long ago!"
"So, I think they will send a small group of cavalry out of the city to test out the Beifu soldiers at the beginning. We must seize this opportunity and take the initiative!"
Liu Yu's analysis was clear and logical, and all aspects were taken into consideration. Wang Mi felt that there was no need for him to add anything more.
"Ji Nu, in your opinion, how can we take the initiative?"
Wang Mi rubbed his hands, his confidence was recovering. This was his biggest concern, and based on his understanding of Liu Yu's temperament, the fact that he could say such a thing proved that he probably had a solution.
"Use the only cavalry we have now to teach these Di Qin cavalry a lesson. This battle must be fought cleanly and neatly, and we must win heartily. Only in this way can Di Qin be slightly afraid of our strength and dare not
Let’s go out of the city easily to challenge!”
"At least when they send the next wave of troops to fight, they will always give it more thought. As long as they can delay the Qin soldiers, our goal will be achieved."
Everyone's so-called goal is actually the same, that is, as long as the energy is used up until Xie Xuan's army arrives, they will be considered victorious.
"But we only have a few hundred cavalry!"
"How to win?"
He Mai has another major characteristic.
When you are optimistic, you are really optimistic without a bottom line. If you are pessimistic, it is also a melancholy pool with no bottom.
There is almost no transition between optimism and pessimism. The transition from this state to that state is almost instantaneous.
For example, now, everyone present was encouraged by Liu Yu, and their confidence gradually recovered. However, he, a blindly confident optimist, suddenly became worried.
Could it be that Lao Liu, Lao Tan and other serious generals who lead troops don't know that there are only 500 cavalry now!
"What happened to hundreds of people?"
"Very few?"
Wang Mi questioned He Mai in a questioning tone: "Isn't this the number of cavalry in a regular army?"
No way!
If someone wants to participate in military planning, he doesn't even know this basic common sense!
He Mai was quite shocked, he really didn't know about this.
"In other words, the cavalry in Xiangyang City will not exceed 10,000 at most?"
"Of course, how many do you think there are?" Wang Mi laughed angrily at him.
He also said that others were talking on paper, but in Wang Mi's opinion, the Master He in front of him was the best at drawing big cakes on paper!
The behavior of everyone present fully demonstrated He Mai's ignorance on this issue. He lowered his head in shame: "I thought there were only half of the cavalry in the city!"
"Didn't I always say that Di Qin's cavalry was large in number and well-equipped? In the past, when I looked at the battle reports, I always said that Di Qin's cavalry was reduced to 100,000!"
