Chapter 1084, Another Smart-Aleck

Watch in ten minutes

Without considering the flying legion that can ignore the terrain, if you want to send troops from Hanzhong to attack Hubei, there is only one channel you can take, and this channel is the Shangyong Passage.

Shangyong is a county established by Cao Cao, King of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period, at the junction of the four provinces of Henan, Shaanxi, Hubei and Chongqing. It includes Zhushan County, Zhuxi County, Yun County and surrounding areas. Its geographical location is very important.

If the Condor Army wants to enter Hubei directly from Hanzhong, it must pass through Shangyong County, otherwise it can only choose to take a detour from other areas.

In order to guard Shangyong County, the choke point at the junction of the four provinces, the Northern Expedition Alliance deployed heavy troops in Zhuxi County and Yun County for defense, blocking all ground passages for the Condor Army from Hanzhong into Hubei.

From Hanzhong to Hubei, we first follow the river valley through Shiquan County and Hanyin County, and then arrive at Ankang.

After entering Ankang, the originally single river valley passage suddenly splits into two. To the north is the passage from Xunyang County to Yun County, and to the south is the passage from Pingli County, Zhuxi County, and Zhushan County.

The Xunyang County Passage to the north is not suitable for large regiments to march due to its complex terrain. As long as the enemy sends an elite force to guard Yunxian County, the troops attacking Yunxian County through this passage can only look at the city and sigh.

In addition to defending against enemies sneaking in from Xunyang County, Yun County can also defend against enemies sneaking over from the Guanzhong Plain. Therefore, this place has always been a battleground for military strategists. Every force that owns Yun County will deploy a force here. An elite soldier used to prevent enemies from stealing chickens.

Yun County is bordered by the Han River to the south and the Qinling Mountains to the north. The narrowest point is only six kilometers. The terrain is extremely steep. As long as the troops guarding here are not hard-earned, it is absolutely impossible to break through this place just by some troops who have sneaked over.

Precisely because of the existence of Yun County, a checkpoint that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, the only channels from Hanzhong to Hubei are Pingli County and Zhuxi County.

The passage between Pingli County and Zhuxi County is actually what people often call the Shangyong Passage.

Starting from Pingli County, passing through Zhuxi County, Zhushan County, and Fang County, it reaches Tongtuanwan Town in the north of Baokang County.

Heading northeast from Duanwan Town, you can reach Gucheng County in Hubei Province.

Traveling south from Tongtuanwan Town, you can enter Baokang County, then travel east, and finally reach Nanzhang County.

Originally, as long as the Northern Expedition Alliance held Yun County, Zhuxi County, and Zhushan County, there would be no possibility for the Condor Army's ground troops to enter the Hubei region.

However, after Ning Yuan personally led a flying legion to occupy Baokang County and Nanzhang County, their defenders in Zhuxi County and Zhushan County immediately fell into an unfavorable situation of being attacked from both sides. If they were not careful, the entire Shangyong Passage would be destroyed. It will be defeated by the Condor Army's front and rear attacks.

As a local snake in Hubei, Li Yufeng had already figured out all the situations nearby, so after learning that Ning Yuan led the flying army to capture Baokang County and Nanzhang County, he immediately thought of the safety of Shangyong Passage. question.

After sending messengers and scouts to understand the situation ahead, Li Yufeng immediately ordered people to carry up the sand table in Hubei, and then set his sights on Nanzhang County, which was occupied by the Shenying Army.

After staring at Nanzhang County for a long time, Li Yufeng immediately ordered to the soldiers around him: "Send my military order to immediately recruit a part of the army east of the Han River to assemble in Xiangyang, Yicheng and Jingmen.

After arriving at the nearest assembly area, let the troops stand by where they are. No troops are allowed to move out without my order. All senior generals in the army who disobey the order will be executed. "

Because the death sites of Nanzhang, Xiangyang, Yicheng and Jingmen are located in the safe central area, Li Yufeng and others never thought that the Divine Eagle Army would suddenly come in without army support, nor did they expect that the 20,000 elves in Nanzhang County would The defenders could not hold on for even half a day.

The current situation is very passive for them. Li Yufeng does not dare to act rashly until the true intention of the Condor Army is fully understood.

So he could only mobilize his troops and generals while waiting for the scouts sent to bring him back some more detailed information, and then use that information to determine what kind of military action to take next.

After arranging all the things he could think of, Li Yufeng waited quietly in the meeting hall.

Seeing the serious expression on Li Yufeng's face, the soldiers who had been following him did not dare to say anything. They could only pour out the cold tea and replace it with fresh tea.

In this way, Li Yufeng drank cup after cup of tea, and went to the toilet when he felt the need to urinate.

He didn't know exactly how many cups of tea he drank or how many times he went to the toilet. As the sky grew dark, several flying scouts returned one after another and brought him a series of detailed information.

"Your Majesty, Tongtuan Bay Town is still under the control of our army. The enemy once sent troops to attack Tongtuan Bay Town, but because there were relatively few people, they failed.

After the town of Tongtuanwan was attacked, our allied forces stationed in Fang County immediately sent 30,000 people to the emergency rescue of Tongtuanwan Town.

After the second wave of enemies that attacked Duanwan Town saw our reinforcements arriving, they stopped attacking and all of them retreated to Baokang County. "

"Your Majesty, at noon today, a large number of ships and countless mermaid troops appeared on the river south of Yichang.

After the mermaid troops appeared, they immediately rushed to the river bank and launched a fierce attack on our stronghold stationed by the river.

After more than two hours of fierce fighting, our troops guarding the river bank were outnumbered and finally had to retreat to the city behind.

Now the enemy has successfully landed on the north bank of the Yangtze River and established several large camps.

When we rushed to the Yichang area, the vanguard troops sent by His Majesty Zhao Guangfu to support Yichang were already on the road and were expected to arrive there at noon tomorrow. "

"Your Majesty, the enemy's troops stationed in Pingli County suddenly launched an attack on our allied troops stationed in Zhuxi County at noon today.

Although the enemy did not launch a large-scale siege, they used trebuchets to bombard Zhuxi County indiscriminately for a whole afternoon.

Facing the enemy's trebuchet offensive, our Allies immediately responded in kind.

The enemy and we began to stop fighting only after nightfall. According to reports from spies, except for the loss of hundreds of trebuchets each, the loss of soldiers was negligible. "

"Report, Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Shangnan County.

At noon today, a force of 100,000 from the Shenying Army left Wuguan and headed straight for Shangnan County. The enemy has already set up camp five kilometers away from Shangnan County. "

"Report, Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Luoyang.

At noon today, the Condor Army suddenly sent troops from Tongguan to attack Hangu Pass where our allies were stationed.

After the enemy and we fought a tragic trebuchet battle, the Condor Army retreated to a place ten kilometers away from Hangu Pass to set up camp. The enemy and we temporarily stopped their troops. "

"Report, Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Zhengzhou.

At noon today, the orc army of the Dashi Kingdom in Heze suddenly launched a fierce attack on our allied defense line stationed in the Kaifeng area. At present, the orc army has captured Lankao County in the east of Kaifeng. "

"Report, Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the Shangqiu area.

At noon today, a large number of suspicious troops suddenly appeared in the southern area of ​​​​Shangqiu. Those troops were flying different flags and ranged in size from hundreds to thousands of people.

After they appeared in the southern area of ​​Shangqiu, they did not launch an attack on our allied defense lines. Instead, they kept attacking the villages outside Shangqiu. Whether it was population, livestock or food, they were all among their targets.

Our allied forces stationed in Shangqiu took the initiative several times to annihilate those bandit armies, but those bandit armies were all cavalry. They were not suitable for direct confrontation with our allied forces. After receiving the news that our allied forces were dispatched, they He would immediately gallop on his horse and run away.

Under the harassment of the bandit army, the people outside Shangqiu all fled towards Kaifeng and Xuchang, and now a small wave of refugees has initially formed. "

...

After listening to the more detailed information brought back by the scouts, Li Yufeng's expression became even heavier. He held the empty teacup in his hand and drank several sips, but he didn't realize that there was no tea in the teacup. .

Staring at the sand table in front of him, Li Yufeng's brows knitted together and his eyes wandered.

Through a series of intelligence brought back by the scouts, Li Yufeng could conclude that the Condor Army was not fooling around this time, and that they must have planned it in advance.

The attack on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau should be a strategy used by the Shenying Army to divert the tiger away from the mountain. Its purpose is to divert the main force of the Northern Expedition Alliance away from the area north of the Yangtze River.

—————

The Condor Army first used the illusion that it was bound to capture the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to make Ye Ziqing and others think that they were determined to open up the channel between the Sichuan Basin and Vietnam County. After forming an encirclement of Guangxi and Hunan, they started from Yunnan-Guizhou. Plateau and Vietnam counties launched a full-scale attack on those two areas.

After losing Shanxi and Shaanxi, the Northern Expedition Alliance only had Henan, Hubei, Hunan and Guangxi as its territory.

If Guangxi and Hunan fail, they will face the embarrassing situation of being attacked from three sides by the Condor Army.

Therefore, in order to prevent this situation from happening, they will definitely fully support the Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance and strive to help the Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance defend the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.

Ning Yuan knew that the army of the Northern Expedition Alliance that could support the Alliance of Ten Thousand Beasts must be mainly player armies, so he simply worked hard and used the Tenglong Army as bait to lure a large number of player armies from the Northern Expedition Alliance to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.

After all the main players of the Northern Expedition Alliance arrive on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, the Divine Eagle Army will immediately cut off the Yangtze River waterway and cut off the connection between the north and south sides of the Yangtze River, and then launch a full-scale attack on Hubei and Henan. Taking advantage of the absence of the main players of the Northern Expedition Alliance, they will attack the Yangtze River in one fell swoop. These two areas were conquered.

As early as when the Condor Army did not send many main troops to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu guessed that there must be a fraud, because if the Condor Army was really determined to win the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, they would not hide so many troops. elite army.

Although it was somewhat of an afterthought that he had only fully realized it now, Li Yufeng was still secretly glad that he did not follow Li Yufeng and others to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Otherwise, when he was not in his home base, the Condor Army's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain and attack the east and attack the west would have been real. It's possible to succeed.

However, although Li Yufeng stayed, the current situation was still very unfavorable to them because the Shenying Army's current offensive was very abnormal.

After carefully analyzing all the information brought back by the scouts for a while, Li Yufeng set his sights on Zhengzhou and Xiangyang.

Regardless of the fact that the Condor Army is now adopting a multi-point blooming tactic, its troops have been divided into multiple channels to launch a comprehensive attack on the areas controlled by the Northern Expedition Alliance.

However, in Li Yufeng's view, the Condor Army does not yet have the strength to make all attack routes the main attack points. Therefore, the Condor Army is most likely to use a virtual and real strategy.

Counting the orc army of the Dashi Kingdom and the various bandit cavalry, the Condor Army was now divided into seven groups and launched a comprehensive attack on the Northern Expedition Alliance's defense line.

Regarding these seven attack routes, the first one Li Yufeng eliminated was Hangu Pass east of Tongguan.

Hangu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it also has a restricted airspace. The Northern Expedition Alliance has deployed heavy troops there. Even if millions of Condor troops attack Hangu Pass, they will never be able to capture it in a short time, so it must be there. It was the false attack route of the Condor Army's bluff.

Next is Shangnan County southeast of Tongguan.

Although Shangnan County is not as steep as Tongguan, it is still a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

After the Condor Army captured the Guanzhong Plain, the Northern Expedition Alliance began another round of heightening and reinforcement of Shangnan County.

Ziziqing and others deployed more elite troops in Shangnan County than those at Hangu Pass. They stocked up enough food in the city for the troops to eat for two years and dug a large number of deep wells. They were not afraid of the enemy at all. siege.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for the Condor Army to break through Shangnan County in a short period of time, because the Condor Army that rushed out from Tongguan should also be a feint attack.

After excluding these two places, there are actually only two real main attack points for the Shenying Army. One is the Hubei area on the east side of the Shangyong Passage, and the other is the Henan area on the west side of the Dashi Kingdom.

The Condor Army's attack on Hubei is now divided into three lines. One is the ground army attacking Zhuxi County from Pingli County, the other is the Condor Air Force that has captured Baokang County and Nanzhang County, and the other is the Condor Air Force that has already captured Yichang County. The Condor Navy successfully landed on the south coast.

Bai Ze, the commander of the White Dragon Legion, the attacking legion, has 10,000 light cavalry, 10,000 elven archers, 10,000 elven rangers, 10,000 condor guards, 20,000 siege infantry, and 20,000 heavy armor. Infantry, twenty thousand dwarf infantry, two thousand heavy cavalry.
