Chapter 162: The momentum is like thunder, breaking its unpreparedness
"Your Majesty, I believe that since the champion has occupied the key point of Youbeiping County, the rear army should follow up in time to consolidate the advantage."
The speaker was Gongsun Hong.
Wei Qing has the power to make suggestions, and so do other civil and military officials.
It cannot be that just because they are not military strategists and have not seen Huo Qubing’s skill before, they dare not even say anything.
After Gongsun Hong finished speaking, his attention turned to Wei Qing: "At this moment, the army is following up to create pressure on the opponent. By cooperating with Huo Hou, we can take the opportunity to expand the results. General Wei suggested not to send troops and let Huo Hou's three thousand troops be independent
Is it too bold to fight?"
He used a tone of asking for advice rather than questioning.
In fact, at this time, everyone felt as if a fire had been lit in their hearts, and their emotions were very agitated.
The champion's use of troops made the officials look forward to it with astonishment. They also set their sights on Wei Qing.
Wei Qing said: "It is recommended to postpone sending troops. Firstly, it is because of my judgment of the war situation. Secondly, with the march speed of Qubing, I am afraid it will be too late to send troops at this time."
In the scene where the emperor promotes the manifestation of the national destiny, Huo Qubing has already made new moves after breaking through Youbeiping County.
He did not delay in the city, but tidied up his troops and went out of the city again.
The Han army that was originally controlled in the city was able to regain control of Youbeiping County because of Huo Qubing's capture of the city. After receiving Huo Qubing's order, they closed the city gates and turned to defend with all their strength.
"Your Majesty can send people directly to reinforce and strengthen your control over Youbeiping County."
Wei Qing said: "Qubing can't stay in the city and give up the advantage of flexible use of troops, so he will attack again."
The night is beginning to fall.
Far outside the city of Youbeiping County, Huo Qubing activated his power.
The several military strategies carried in his sea-knowledge war book are shining brightly. After being connected in a series of schemes, their power is superimposed and rising steadily.
Suddenly, a qi force dispersed, and the three thousand soldiers behind Huo Qubing were all covered by the qi force.
He took his troops and disappeared outside Youbeiping County again.
Without a trace.
Mysterious military skills that can be hidden from the sky.
————
The border between Shanggu County and Yuyang County.
Above Xiongguan, Xiong Yan stared at Zhao Xin with squinted eyes and said unceremoniously: "General Zhao, have you ever thought about the fact that you have repeatedly surrendered between the Han and the Huns. Without great achievements, the situation will be very difficult. In this case, why not take the risk?
?
In other words, General Zhao doesn't even have the courage to take risks?"
He was still trying to persuade Zhao Xin to send troops with him to attack Huo Qubing and the Han army.
He pointedly pointed at Zhao Xin's repeated surrenders between the Han and the Huns, which made Zhao Xin shocked and angry, and looked at Xiong Yan suddenly.
"General Zhao didn't dare to leave the city, was he afraid of Huo Qubing's troops?"
Xiong Yan said coldly: "We can be divided into two armies, front and rear. I am in the front and you are in the back.
If we encounter the champion, how about General Zhao sitting back and watching me fight with his troops before deciding whether to take action?"
"Where do you get the confidence to think you can beat him?" Xin Zhao said in a deep voice.
Xiong Yan whispered softly: "Then you know that we have been preparing for many years, so why do you dare to launch it now?
It is precisely because he is famous all over the world in his two battles that I have to take the initiative to defeat him. Without this determination to win, how could we rashly take action and fight against the big man?
Our goal is to divide and subvert the entire Han Dynasty, let alone a champion? In my eyes, he is nothing more than that..."
At this moment, in the city gate below, a scout ran up quickly with an eager look on his face:
"Major General, the situation has changed.
You Beiping County was captured by a Han army that suddenly appeared, and the city fell into the hands of the Han army half an hour ago."
Xiong Yan was stunned for a moment, confused for a moment: "Han Army? Where did the Han Army come from?"
He reacted for a moment, and then the shock in his eyes slowly became apparent: "The champion's men?
How did he cross Yuyang and attack Youbeiping County directly?"
When Xin Zhao heard what the scout said, an idea immediately came to his mind:
"The target of Huo Qubing's attack is Youbeiping County! The route he took cannot be Yuyang and Shanggu...
With the loss of Youbeiping County, the Yuyang Pass was attacked from the front and back by the Han army. Its advantage was lost and it became an isolated pass..."
The more Xin Zhao thought about it, the paler his face turned.
The way the champion used his troops made him feel inexplicably terrified.
Xiong Yan quickly figured out the key and swayed.
But his pride and vigor were still there, and he said angrily: "How could he attack Youbeiping County? Are all the scouts dead? Where did he go?"
Xiong Yan said as he walked very quickly down the city.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the main hall of a mansion in the city was lit with bright lights.
Xiong Yan, Zhao Xin, and seven or eight new faces, both civilized and military.
The leader of everyone is a tall and thin middle-aged man wearing a dark green robe.
He was wearing a hood, and his face was shrouded in a strange aura, making it somewhat blurry.
But with Xiong Yan's pride, he still respects this person respectfully.
It is not difficult to see that this person must have a very high status within Huainan and the secret forces.
There was also a map placed in front of everyone.
"You Beiping County!"
The middle-aged man's voice was hoarse, as if it contained supernatural power, sounding like a heavy drum in the void.
"Youbeiping County is occupied by the Han army, so we can't respond and cooperate."
The middle-aged man looked at Xiong Yan and said: "We have been preparing for many years, and our plans must not be ruined because of the loss of Youbeiping County."
Xiong Yan had recovered from the shock of the capture of Youbeiping County and responded: "I have figured out how the champion can attack Youbeiping County.
He should have advanced from outside Beiguan. The road was smooth and unobstructed, allowing him to reach the fastest speed and easily avoid our detection. So he passed Yuyang faster than we expected and headed straight for the road behind us.
Right Beiping County.
You Beiping County was unprepared and was succeeded by one blow.
This man does have some skills in using troops."
Xiong Yan stared at the terrain map in front of him with blazing eyes: "The attack on Youbeiping County was a strategic move.
After occupying such an important place, he only needs to stand firm and wait for reinforcements to form a pincer attack with the Han army and besiege our Yuyang County Pass."
He added: "But according to the news we have learned, the champion has only three thousand soldiers and horses.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Our advantage is that we are fully prepared. The Han army would never have imagined how long we had prepared for this day and how many arrangements we had made in various cities along the route.
He rashly broke into our deployment area, and although he destroyed Beiping County, we only need to launch our deployment, and we will be able to recapture Youbeiping County before the Han army approaches."
Xiong Yan stood up and said respectfully to the middle-aged man:
"Please allow me to lead the troops to attack, cooperate with our arrangements, and take back Youbeiping County.
I will be more careful this time and never give the Han army a chance."
Bing Zun hummed in a low voice.
The emperor of the Han Dynasty or the champion prince really didn't know what they had planned as a trump card.
"It seems that part of the arrangement is to be started in advance, and Youbeiping County must get it back."
The middle-aged man said slowly: "The champion has three thousand elite troops under his command. How many troops do you want to bring?"
Xiong Yan did not try to be brave. He thought carefully and said, "I want Bing Zun to give me 200 of his personal guards. With another 6,000 troops, I can be sure to recapture Youbeiping County."
Bing Zun nodded slightly: "Go ahead and be quick."
Xiong Yan immediately turned around and went out to dispatch troops.
After Xiong Yan left, Bing Zun looked at Zhao Xin:
"Although he has good talent, he lacks experience. He may make mistakes against a champion who uses his troops like a god, and we don't have many generals to fight with."
Xin Zhao also understood.
This mysterious soldier wanted to follow Xiong Yan and add the Hun soldiers and horses under his command, one behind the other, to form a double insurance to deal with the champion.
Because Youbeiping County is too important, they must take it back, otherwise the entire plan will be blocked.
Their two teams totaled 16,000 people, and Bing Zun obviously had other means to cooperate, so they were confident of dealing with Huo Qubing's 3,000 men.
Half an hour later, the night became dark.
The east city gate of Xiongguan in Yuyang County opened, and Xiong Yan rode out with great momentum.
The troops behind him followed each other and ran towards Beiping County on the right, preparing to start a battle to seize the city.
————
Huo Qubing led the entire army and left Youbeiping County and headed west, which is the direction of Shanggu County and Yuyang County.
Behind him, one on the left and one on the right, were still two generals, Tong Xuan and Zhang Cigong.
At this time, both of their eyes were shining, and their momentum was soaring.
Tong Xuan and Zhang Cigong followed Huo Qubing all the way. When they knew that the target was Youbeiping County, they also understood the strategic significance of doing so.
On the way here, they also thought over and over again without a good idea, but Huo Qubing was able to break the situation by taking action, so the two of them couldn't help but be surprised.
At this time, a group of people rushed out of the city again, like tigers coming out of the gate, ready to bite their opponents again.
Each soldier's eyes were shining, desperately suppressing his fighting spirit, waiting for the moment to take action.
"Huo Hou wants to attack Yuyang Xiongguan?" Tong Xuan asked.
"Yeah. But you need to have some strategic attacks, and you can't be reckless."
"That's what the Marquis said."
Tong Xuan said excitedly: "What are we going to do?"
Huo Qubing said while riding: "If you were Huainan and those secret forces, knowing that we had occupied Youbeiping County, would you be willing to have your arrangements for many years destroyed by us and wait for failure?"
Tong Xuan said loudly: "Of course I won't give in. I will definitely try to recapture Youbeiping County, otherwise all the years of planning will be in vain.
Especially my big Han soldiers and horses may come from Beiguan at any time and form a pincer attack with us.
There is not much time left for them, so they need to be fast enough and launch a counterattack against us immediately. Try to retake Beiping County and stabilize the situation."
"That's right.
If they want to take back Youbeiping County, they must send troops from Xiongguan, the nearest Yuyang County."
Tong Xuan and Zhang Cigong looked at each other, and Huo Qubing's next battle plan was very clear.
If they stay in Youbeiping County and wait for the opponent to attack, they can only consolidate their current results.
What Huo Qubing wants is to expand the results and defeat the enemy.
So after they judged the opponent's trend, they came to block it!
"Let's go and teach those rebels how to fight." Huo Qubing said calmly.
Three thousand strong troops, under his leadership, rushed towards Yuyang County and Shanggu County.
