Temujin frowned even more tightly. Of course he had already thought of what Ogedei said, but he did not think that Qin Hao would place all his hopes on the Fire Bull Formation. After all, although the advantages of the Fire Bull Formation are obvious, they are also
It also has great limitations.
Having already lost to the Fire Bull Formation in the first battle of Dragon City, Temujin would naturally take strict precautions against the Fire Bull Formation and would never give Qin Hao a chance to use the Fire Bull Formation.
"Your Majesty, if what I predict is true, Qin Hao will use all dirty means to force us out of the city, and we only need to ignore it and delay it for half a month."
Wokuotai's eyes were full of confidence, as if he had really seen through all the fog.
Although Temujin did not think that Qin Hao's trump card was the Fire Ox Formation, but since he could not guess Qin Hao's other trump cards, he could only use the Fire Ox Formation as a precaution, and the best way was to hold on tight.
.
After all, no matter how great the impact of the Fire Bull Formation is, it can only destroy a camp made of wood. It is absolutely impossible for a flesh and blood body to break through a city wall made of huge rocks.
Wo Kuotai's guess was quite accurate. A few hours later, what he expected happened.
"Report...to report to Your Majesty, Qin Hao sent another tactical book and a gift box."
Temujin saw that the Han envoy did not appear, so he asked: "Where is the Han envoy?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the Han envoy dropped his things and ran away."
Temujin suppressed his bad premonition and opened the gift box first, and what he took out was a pink woman's dress.
When the generals of Yuan and Meng saw this, they were in an uproar. This was obviously scolding Temujin for being a woman. All of a sudden, everyone angrily cursed Qin Haodu, and clamored to go out of the city to fight to the death with the Han army.
Temujin unraveled the tactics with an expressionless face. The contents were almost as he expected, and they were all insulting words.
After reading this, Temujin not only did not feel the slightest anger, but actually felt a little bit happy in his heart. This proved that his strategy of switching from offense to defense was correct, which is why Qin Hao was so eager to force him to go out of the city to fight.
"Shut up, everyone. This trick of giving women clothes was already used by Wang Mang during the battle in Sizhou.
At that time, Wang Mang was helpless against the Qin general Su Dingfang, so he came up with this method to force Su Dingfang to fight. I never thought that Qin Hao would use such a trick to deal with me."
Temujin had a sneer and disdain on his face. In his opinion, Qin Hao had either regressed or had no other options at all and began to seek medical treatment in a hurry.
Although dressing up in women's clothing had never been an insult to Temujin, knowing that Qin Hao was really forcing him to fight, it was naturally impossible for him to actually leave the city.
Zhebie, Wo Kuotai and others looked at each other in confusion, and finally shouted in unison: "Your Majesty is wise."
The next day.
"Report...to report to your majesty, the Han army is outside the city, outside the city..."
Seeing the hesitant look of the soldiers, Temujin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and asked quickly: "What are the Han troops doing outside the city?"
"The heads of our soldiers are being used to build a temple outside the city."
"What?"
Like an enraged lion, Temujin suddenly stood up, his chest heaving and his body trembling.
Temujin did not expect that not only did the Han army dare to build a Jingguan in Dragon City, but now Qin Hao even built a Jingguan in front of him. This made Temujin almost unable to restrain his anger, but in the end he was forced to
He suppressed it because he knew that Qin Hao was deliberately irritating him.
The generals of Yuan and Meng looked at each other. They were also very angry about this matter, but no one dared to stand up and speak.
After a while, Temujin gritted his teeth and said: "Qin Hao has reached the end of his skills and has begun to seek medical treatment urgently. If you pass on the order, all the ministries don't need to pay attention to it. All you have to do is defend the city."
"promise."
On the other side, outside the city, Zhao Yun was building the Jingguan with great anxiety, but no enemy troops came out until the pyramid was built. Zhao Yun was completely relieved and quickly withdrew his troops to report truthfully to Qin Hao.
After listening to Zhao Yun's report, Qin Hao and Wang Meng looked at each other without any surprise, as if they had already guessed it.
"As the military advisers expected, Temujin did not dare to leave the city. He only wanted to delay time. Our best opportunity has also come."
Qin Hao's eyes were full of energy, and he ordered with a smile: "Send the order, the whole army marches to Guyuan County, and must capture Guyuan County in the shortest possible time before Temujin reacts."
"promise."
Following Qin Hao's order, the 150,000-strong army directly crossed the main force of Yuan and Meng and marched towards Guyuan County in the southwest, one of the ten counties in Ningxia.
"Report...to report to Your Majesty that the Han army has moved to the southwest."
Temujin frowned when he heard this, and then quickly walked to the map. After looking at it for a while, he suddenly showed a sneer.
"It seems that Qin Hao is eyeing Guyuan County."
After hearing what Temujin said, all the generals could not help but turn pale with shock. Zhebie even said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there is a large granary in Guyuan County. If it is attacked by the Han army, our army will
Reduce food and fodder for twenty days."
The total amount of twenty days of food and grass may not sound like much, but after you know that it is twenty days of food and grass for an army of 400,000, this is not a small number.
You must know that the grain reserves of the Yuanmeng army in Hetao now only have two months of grain left in total. The reason why they are so eager to capture Yinshan City is to seize the grain depot of Yinshan City to alleviate the grain crisis.
"Your Majesty, Qin Hao must not be allowed to capture Guyuan County."
"Yes, our food and supplies are not rich at all, but something will happen in the first few months."
…
All the generals came forward one after another and expressed their intention to rescue Guyuan County. Seeing this, Wo Kuotai stood up with a smile and said: "Everyone, Guyuan County has fifty thousand defenders, how can it be so easy to capture? Besides, there are no Han soldiers in the army.
There are not many siege engines.
On the surface, the Han army wanted to attack Guyuan County, but in fact it was just a way to lure our army out of the city. Have you forgotten the women's clothes and the view outside the city?"
Upon hearing this, all the generals suddenly understood and no longer mentioned the matter of rescuing the city to aid Guyuan County.
Temujin looked deeply to the southwest. Guyuan County with 50,000 defenders was not that easy to fight, so he agreed with Ogodei's words and thought that Qin Hao just wanted to force him to go out of the city for a decisive battle, but for some reason he felt that
I always have a bad feeling.
Twenty miles outside Guyuan County.
Xue Rengui came to Qin Hao with a happy face and reported: "My lord, General Ding Yanping has escorted the catapult and has arrived from Yinchuan County."
Qin Hao's eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly asked: "How long does it take to arrive? How many catapults have been brought here?"
"General Ding Yanping's departure time is still ahead of us. It is estimated that he will arrive in half a day. This time he has brought a hundred vehicles and thirty wells."
"Great. Send an order to the whole army to repair for one day and attack the city tomorrow."
