A few days later, Liyang Tun has become a huge military camp. The original 10,000 troops, plus the 30,000 troops brought by Xu Xiao, already have 40,000 troops stationed inside and outside the camp. The huge number is heart-wrenching.
Surprised, the officers' shouts echoed everywhere.
This place was originally just a fortress, but in the process of continuous expansion, eight fortresses were eventually connected together to form a huge military camp, and even developed step by step to look like a small city.
Originally, due to the loss of Yong'an Fort, Bianqing Fort, and Guning Fort, this camp had become tasteless and it was a pity to abandon it. However, due to the recapture of these three forts, it once again formed a horned force with Liyang Tun.
The importance of location has returned again.
As the outpost of Wuyuan's defense line, with Li Yang in hand, Wuyuan as the command base at the rear is indestructible.
If the soldiers and horses of Xirong dare to bypass this place again and directly threaten Wuyuan, the soldiers and horses of this place will always become a thorn in the side of Xirong's army, like a thorn in the throat.
And this place is destined to become an extremely important tug of war in this thousand-mile battlefield.
Especially on the Xirong side, the troops of the Daqian Dynasty have not yet arrived. Even if they arrive, they will be the same as those of the Wei Dynasty. Therefore, they want to seize this last opportunity to fight for more.
The advantages.
At this time, on the top of the city of Liyangtun, soldiers were standing ready. A middle-aged man with a tall stature was wearing strong armor, holding a sword hilt in his right hand, and looking into the distance with a determined expression. This man was Xu Zhenzhi, Duke of Northern Liang.
Brother, Xu Xiao who is personally stationed at Baima.
Although Xu Xiao's record is not bad, Xu Zhen knows that my younger brother is a talented person. The reason why he has fought so few defeats and committed fewer non-war crimes is that he is several times worse than others.
Fight with strength, and if you lose, you won't get anything!
After watching for a while, Xu Xiao suddenly laughed, which made the generals in front of him feel surprised.
The two people had only known each other for a few days, and of course they might be strangers to each other. Xu Xiao directly called Zhang Liao Wenyuan, which was one of Xu Xiao's methods to withdraw from the relationship between the two.
"General Wenyuan, how is the situation?" Xu Xiao immediately asked expectantly before going to the city.
Zhang Liao suddenly sighed and said: "General Xu, you can go to the city now!"
"According to the intelligence, Chaksi has not passed the Fourth Fort this morning, but now at noon, he has not yet reached the rear of your Liyangtun camp. This person delayed the military plane like this. It seems that just as the military advisor said, it is too late.
He is just a reckless man, arrogant since he was a child, but he can live forever. Although Zhuna's army is small, but the general is capable. Although your army is large, but all the generals are united and united, and there is no strong city in hand, they will definitely be able to defeat a single enemy.
10. There is no doubt that we will win this battle!" Xu Xiao whispered confidently.
Moreover, the relationship between the Holy See and the kingdoms is inherently full of conflicts. It's just that these kingdoms are still forced to tolerate it as a last resort.
"That's too bad. This will definitely leave enough time for the reinforcements to turn around. Just hold on to the city with the seven of you!" Xu Xiao said with a smile.
"Let's go!" Xu Xiao glanced at the thousands of cavalrymen galloping in from the south gate, and immediately greeted them.
"Why is the general laughing?" a general asked curiously.
Furthermore, Xu Xiao is really worried that if Xirong's appearance of conflict is a lie, then we must really retreat headlong and not seek death!
"The general is wise!" The generals immediately responded respectfully and excitedly, their faces becoming more upright.
There are rules and regulations. If something happens because we obey military orders, even Wang Yu will not protect me.
About two hours later, loud horn sounds sounded. Xu Xiao and Zhang Liao at the top of the city suddenly stared at each other, and they finally arrived.
There is indeed no problem with the Xirong Army, but Chaksi is not a capable person. Although Chaksi has a good reputation in the Central Plains Dynasty, judging from the results of the intelligence collected by the Dark Knight Division on this person, it is absolutely
Not a capable person.
The situation between the Central Plains dynasties was very upright, and each had its own interests and ideas.
"Haha!" I saw a strong woman with a majestic body and a dignified appearance jumped up from the horse and said mockingly: "Then Xirong is really boring. They even have the same military orders, and they are not at all slow. Seven hundred thousand little
The army only retreated to Shiwai in one afternoon. According to someone's estimate, it might take several hours for me to arrive!"
Although we keep claiming that the Xirong are barbarians, just like the Xirong also have some bad names for the Central Plains, what does that name mean? Among the Xirong, there is no one who can compare to them.
But the situation in Xirong, among the small and large kingdoms, is several times simpler than that in the Central Plains. It's just because there is no Holy See below to suppress it, so it can still suppress it. But, even if
The Holy See cannot be suppressed at all times, and the tiger has not even taken a nap!
Xiao Wei's hope for the time being is low. Although Xiao Cang's soldiers are not convinced, they are at least as weak as Xiao Wei. Even many soldiers are still unable to fight. This is extremely important for Xiao Qin and Xiao Wu who are facing the shortage of Xirong troops.
.
Zhang Liao rolled his eyes and said without any expectation: "General Xu, there are so few internal conflicts in Xirong. I am planning to lead your seven thousand men to stay here, so that I can still carry out a surprise attack. What does he think?"
Since the various forces have elected two deputy commanders to lead the entire army before Gu Qingzhu, then the generals above must abide by military orders.
"Excuse me, but I must obey the deputy commander's orders!" Zhang Liao said confidently.
"That's bad, let's go!" Xu Xiao smiled slightly, and the two of them immediately returned to the tower again together.
Xu Xiao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced to the east for no reason, with a trace of expectation flashing in his eyes. What I said was half true and half false. If the reinforcements could turn back in time, I would still be unsafe outside.
"Yes, the deputy commander has made it clear a long time ago that if we hold on to the city, there may be no problems within Xirong, but there are also many talents. Moreover, it is not a small army of 700,000 people, but a mere 7,000 people. Gao Zheng is wavering. That kind of division of troops
It is beneficial at all, but once he is too determined to retreat, it will be troublesome. I know that Wenyuan's martial arts are weak, and I want to defeat these Xirong barbarians, but please be patient. When the troops and horses of the Central Plains Dynasty are ready, you will be there.
Fight out of the city and cooperate with the outside!" Xu Xiao comforted him while stopping him.
"Haha, Wen Yuan really knows that a small body is divided into many layers. He fights for personal reasons, unlike the famous generals in ancient times!" Xu Xiao immediately praised.
"Prefect, General Zhang is back!" At that time, a captain ran over and said.
