Samoko was overjoyed when he heard this and asked Xing Daorong if he had any clever ideas.
Xing Daorong said proudly: "The terrain of Linyuan City is low. Your Majesty only needs to send a few thousand men and horses to break open the Yuanshui embankment. When the water floods the city, I don't believe that Liao Li can survive."
Water irrigation Linyuan...
Shamoko was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized what he was doing, clapped his hands and shouted out his clever idea.
Xing Daorong was very proud of himself.
Just when the two were excited and proud, a barbarian soldier suddenly entered and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Yuannan City. A large number of Yan troops have been found in the east of the city and are rushing towards Yuannan City."
"What?"
Shamoko was shocked and rushed toward the map on the desk.
Yuannan City is located dozens of miles upstream of Linyuan. Previously, Shamoko led the Wuxi barbarians to rebel and attacked and killed them all along the Yuan River. After capturing Yuannan City, they continued eastward to besiege Linyuan.
"Didn't the scout say that Yan Liang's army was marching towards Longyang City? Why did it suddenly appear in Yuannan City?" Samoko looked surprised and puzzled.
Longyang City is located downstream of Linyuan and is the only way for the Yan Army to pass along the Yuan River to rescue Linyuan. It had been captured by Shamoko before, and a line of defense was built there in an attempt to block Yan Army's reinforcements.
Xing Daorong looked at the map for a long time, then sneered: "After the Yan army entered Yuankou, they must have attacked Longyang under the banner of attacking Longyang, but secretly went south to Yiyang, westward from Lianshui, and suddenly went north and directly inserted into our army.
Behind you."
Shamoko analyzed Xing Daorong's words and thought about it for a long time before he understood it. His thick eyebrows could not help but frown more tightly. He gritted his teeth and said: "People say that this Yan Liang is cunning and cunning, and he can use soldiers like a god. I didn't believe it before, but I didn't expect it to be true."
in this way."
Xing Daorong showed disdain and snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty, how many defenders do you have left in Yuannan?" he asked.
"Probably more than two thousand."
Xing Daorong thought for a while and then said: "If Yuannan City is lost, our army will be cut off from its return. Fortunately, there are still two thousand soldiers in the city, which is enough to withstand a burst of enemy attacks. I think the king will personally lead an army.
Go immediately to rescue Yuannan, and by the way, you can defeat Yan Liang's sneak attack army, and you will definitely severely weaken the enemy's spirit."
Shamo nodded repeatedly, deeply convinced.
After thinking for a moment, Samo then said: "If this king leads his army away, what will happen to Linyuan City?"
Xing Daorong smiled and said: "If the king believes in Rong, he only needs to give Rong five thousand soldiers and horses, and Rong will flood the city. When the king returns from victory, it will be the day when Rong will dedicate Linyuan City to the king."
Xing Daorong is full of confidence and determined to win.
Shamoko was overjoyed and readily agreed to Xing Daorong's plan.
At that moment, Shamoko left five thousand soldiers and horses for Xing Daorong to continue attacking the city, while he himself led fifteen thousand barbarians up the Yuan River and headed straight for Yuannan City.
…
Twenty miles east of Yuannan City.
In the dense forest, Yan Liang held a piece of wild grass in the corner of his mouth, his razor-sharp eyes passed through the layers of leaves, and he stared at the narrow dirt road along the water like an eagle.
Pa~~
Yan Liang slapped his arm fiercely, and a huge fat mosquito was killed in the palm of his hand.
"Damn it, it's already autumn, and there are still such big mosquitoes."
Yan Liang, who grew up in the north, quickly adapted to the southern climate, but the only thing that made it difficult for him to adapt was the damn mosquitoes.
The soldiers from Jingzhou on the left and right were holding back their laughter as they watched their lord beating and scolding mosquitoes. Having lived in Jingzhou for a long time, they seemed to have developed immunity to mosquitoes and had long been accustomed to the pain of being sucked blood.
In the dense forest, Yan Liang and his seven thousand soldiers had been lying in wait for three whole hours.
There are still a thousand soldiers who are setting up camp outside Yuannan City at the moment. The whole camp has planted flags, pretending to be a huge army and preparing to attack the city with a large army.
This is Ma Su's plan.
Zhou Cang led 2,000 soldiers and horses to pretend to attack Longyang, while Yan Liang led 8,000 main troops to Yiyang, then went westward from the Huo River to raid Yuannan City on the side of Samoko.
However, after Yan Liang led his army to successfully insert into the rear of the barbarian army, he made slight adjustments to the plan temporarily.
Yan Liang decided not to focus on attacking Yuannan City, but to set up an ambush halfway to ambush Samoko's reinforcements.
Yan Liang has absolute self-confidence. Although Samoko is brave, he lacks resourceful counselors around him. Knowing that the rear is in danger, he will rush to rescue without hesitation.
Yan Liang is best at surrounding areas and calling for reinforcements.
Time passed by, the sun was setting in the west, and Yan Liang's arms were covered with blood from mosquito bites.
On the dirt road along the water, there was still no sign of the barbarian soldiers. Apart from the chirping of birds and insects, and the sound of the rolling water, everything was still so quiet.
The seven thousand soldiers hidden in the forest were still heartbroken and did not feel anxious at all.
Following Yan Liang, they fought in the south and north, and they had long developed a strong military spirit. They were not afraid of enemies as powerful as Cao Cao and Liu Bei, let alone mere barbarians.
No one questioned Yan Liang's judgment. Everyone had only one belief in their hearts, and that was to wait patiently.
The setting sun is setting in the west, and the golden afterglow shines on the dense forest, passing through the layers of leaves, and scattering fine pieces of golden color on the ground.
Just after Yan Liang swatted a damn mosquito to death again, his ears suddenly stood up almost instinctively.
The keen perception of a top military general allowed him to hear some kind of unusual movement among the birdsong and insects.
Yan Liang stood up abruptly and glanced at Hu Che'er beside him.
Hu Che'er understood, so he lay down on the ground and put his ear to the wet ground to listen.
After listening for a long time, Hu Che'er jumped up and shouted excitedly: "Lord, a large number of people are coming this way, at least more than 10,000 people."
Hu Che'er's ability is really amazing. Not only can he hear the direction in which the enemy is coming, but he can also hear the number.
"There are more than 10,000 people. It seems that the barbarians are coming in full force this time, which is good." Yan Liang sneered, and the murderous aura around him was already billowing.
The soldiers on the left and right were infected by Yan Liang's killing power, and their hearts, as calm as water, began to beat faster in the blink of an eye, and their blood for battle was burning crazily.
"Send the order, the barbarian army is coming, the whole army is ready to fight!" Yan Liang shouted with a sword in his hand.
"My lord has orders, prepare to fight——"
"Prepare to fight——"
The whispers, like ripples, were passed down layer by layer. In an instant, all the seven thousand soldiers were tensed up and tightly grasped the swords and guns in their hands.
The strange sound in his ears became heavier and heavier. It was the sound of rapid footsteps and the sound of weapons rubbing against each other.
Under the gaze of a pair of bloodthirsty eyes, a barbarian army appeared in the field of vision.
Those ferocious barbarian soldiers with disheveled hair and wearing leather armor hurriedly ran past the dirt road outside the dense forest. After a rough sweep, there were indeed ten thousand of them.
The hurried barbarian soldiers were only focused on heading towards Yuannan and were completely unaware that there were countless bloodshot eyes in the dense forest, staring at them like hungry beasts.
A sneer flashed across Yan Liang's lips, and his eyes, like those of a god of death, quietly watched the barbarian soldiers passing by.
The sharp eyes suddenly moved slightly.
However, I saw an enemy general passing by an enemy group. Under the huge banner, the enemy general had a face as bloody as his face and protruding blue eyes. He was carrying an iron caltrop and had two bows on his belt. He looked very majestic.
The enemy general who showed off his power was presumably the Barbarian King of Wuxi, Samoko.
After discovering the enemy's leader, Yan Liang was not in a hurry to attack and continued to stand still, even though most of the barbarian troops entered the ambush circle he had carefully laid without any precautions.
In a short time, all the 15,000-strong Long Snake Barbarians were trapped in the net.
The time has come.
"Pooh--"
Yan Liang spat out the weeds in his mouth, turned his majestic body onto his horse, thrust his sword in front of him, and said sternly: "I, the generals of the Yan family army, follow our generals to kill the generals, so that these rebellious barbarians can have a good look at our Han people."
The strength of our warriors——"
When the order was given, Yan Liang rode his horse like lightning, like a black lightning bolt, to kill the generals first.
A loud horn sounded immediately, and the seven thousand warriors who were ambushed in the forest rushed out screaming like wild beasts coming out of their cages.
Angry shouts of killing rose into the sky, countless birds flew away in fright, and a flood of soldiers rushed out of the dense forest, like hungry wolves, and pounced on the frightened barbarians.
Fifteen thousand barbarian soldiers, who had been traveling for a whole day, were already physically exhausted, but now they were suddenly attacked, and their spirits were severely damaged.
Before the barbarian soldiers, who were both physically and mentally damaged, could react, the Han'er's shining blade in the forest had already struck at their heads.
The screams suddenly started.
The experienced officers and soldiers of the Yan Army had long understood the essence of an ambush. As soon as the ambush started, they concentrated heavy troops and cut the barbarian army into two sections.
The barbarian army, unable to look at each other from head to tail, was cut into several sections, and soon fell into the unfavorable situation of fighting on its own.
A sudden change occurred, and Samoko was also horrified.
Originally full of momentum, he was full of confidence and wanted to rush to Yuannan City, attack with his own defenders inside and outside the city, and kill all the enemy soldiers who sneaked up on him.
What frightened him was that the enemy had already arrived and he would lead his troops to help, setting up an ambush halfway along the road.
Seeing that his army was in chaos and his barbarian soldiers were being wantonly killed by Han'er, Shamoko became angry.
He roared, waved the caltrops in his hands, turned around on horseback and charged into the rebel army, killing like a beast, trying to reverse the unfavorable situation.
Where the iron caltrops passed by, countless enemy soldiers were blasted to the point where their brains exploded. In the blink of an eye, Shamoko was covered in blood, looking as ferocious and terrifying as a crazy beast.
With his own bravery, Shamoko charged all the way and reconnected several cut off barbarian troops.
The barbarian king's killing spree did not last long. More than ten steps away, those eagle-like eyes had locked onto him.
Yan Liang, who had cut off countless heads of barbarians with his long sword, finally found the target of the enemy leader.
With a ferocious light in his eyes, and with a loud shout, Yan Liang rode his horse like the wind, cutting through the chaos of the army, and roared towards Shamoko.
"Junior Brother Sha, give your grandpa a knife from me -"
Amidst the long roar, the blood-drinking sword in his hand has already attacked Samoko head-on with the power of Mount Tai. (To be continued.
