Shangguan Yuanrang strode into the Chinese military tent from the outside. When he saw tea on the table in front of Liang Qi, he didn't ask any questions. He picked it up and drank it in one gulp. After drinking, he wiped his mouth and said, "I just received news from Yancheng. Du Ji's envoy came to Yancheng again to request an armistice in our country."

"Oh!" Liang Qi looked at the map and responded absently without raising his head.

"Aren't you curious about the outcome of the negotiation?" Shangguan Yuanrang asked curiously with wide eyes.

"What good are the words of a dead person?" Liang Qi muttered.

Shangguan Yuanrang was startled and asked suspiciously: "How did you know that the king killed the envoy Du Ji?"

Liang Qi finally raised his head, glanced at Shangguan Yuanrang with a half-smile, and said: "Under the current situation, with the king's temper, he will definitely kill the envoy to show the king's determination in this battle!"

Shangguan Yuanrang curled his lips, sat down opposite Liang Qi, and said while pouring tea: "You guessed it right, the king did kill the Du Ji envoy, and ordered our army to fight quickly and strike as many blows as possible Du Jijun's main force." After a pause, he asked again: "What are your plans for the battle at hand?"

Liang Qi pondered without saying a word. Shangguan Yuanrang immediately responded: "You definitely won't do a frontal attack."

"Haha!" Liang Qi laughed and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"You have always been cunning, and you like to use tricks in battles. You will not confront the enemy head-on unless you have to, not to mention that there is still a tough battle ahead of you." Shangguan Yuanrang analyzed mercilessly while drinking tea.

Regarding Shangguan Yuan Rang's comments, Liang Qi accepted it with a smile and said quietly: "If I can get victory at the smallest cost, I can do whatever it takes!" After a pause, he added: "Yuan Rang still remembers Chuan Zhen. What tactics did the coalition forces use to break through Ba Pass?”

Shangguan Yuanrang was stunned at first, then shocked again, and said in horror: "You want to use plague to destroy the city?"

Liang Qi shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Unless you have a better way."

Shangguan Yuanrang frowned and said, "It is reported that there are still 20,000 Tia people in the town."

Liang Qi lowered his head, looked at the map and said, "What does their life and death have to do with our army?"

After all, Shangguan Yuanrang was born as a ranger, and he still had the boldness and righteousness of a ranger, which was different from a cold-blooded orthodox general like Liang Qi. He shook his head like a rattle and said: "I do not agree with the use of plague tactics. It is too inhumane. Moreover, if it is not controlled well, our soldiers will suffer the consequences, and it may eventually spread to the entire Tibet." Ya.”

Liang Qi held his chin, as if he was thinking carefully about Shangguan Yuanrang's words. After a long silence, he said: "Although the defense of Val Town is weak, the defenders number 30,000, and they are all elite. Its commander He is also the brother of Marshal Du Jijun, which shows how much Du Jijun attaches great importance to this place. If our army attacks by force, even if we can finally capture the town of Vaal, the losses will be huge. How can we fight the main force of Du Jijun next? "

Shangguan Yuanrang remained silent. Val Town is very small, but similarly, a small town is also more conducive to defense. With 30,000 elites guarding this small town, it is indeed not easy to capture. He scratched his hair in embarrassment and asked, "Liang Qi, isn't there any other better way?"

Liang Qi smiled slightly and said: "There is a way, but..." He deliberately stopped talking in the middle of the sentence.

Shangguan Yuanrang is impatient and is most afraid of being offended. He said anxiously: "If you have anything to say, you should finish it in one breath!"

"That's it." Liang Qi spread the map in his hand on the table, stretched out his hand to point and said seriously: "Our army also has another tactic, which is to bypass Val Town and go straight to Tia City, but besiege Tia City. Du Ji's army has more than 100,000 people. It is difficult for our army to defeat it with just one blow. However, if we cannot defeat the opponent, our army will be in danger of losing supplies and even suffer from Du Ji's army. The base army’s front and rear attacks.”

"Yes!" Shangguan Yuanrang nodded while listening to the analysis, agreeing with Shangguan Yuanrang's statement, "So?"

"So, if our army wants to bypass Val Town and go straight to Tia City, it must get in touch with the defenders in Tia City. I want to know exactly how many troops there are in Tia City and their combat strength. How, and then estimate the possibility of success by integrating internal and external forces.”

"Yes! That makes sense." Shangguan Yuanrang continued to nod. After waiting for a while, he didn't hear anything more from Liang Qi. He raised his head curiously and said, "You continue talking..." While speaking, he was looking at Liang Qi. Qi Zai looked at him eagerly and was stunned for a moment. Shangguan Yuanrang immediately understood what Liang Qi meant. He wondered: "You want me to break through the encirclement of Du Ji's army, rush into Tia City, and contact the people inside." Guards?"

When Liang Qi heard this, he put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying, "The one who knows me is Yuan Rang!"

"Get the hell out of here, you're trying to hurt me again!" Shangguan Yuanrang no longer felt angry at this time, but had the urge to laugh. He knew that Liang Qi's suggestion to the king that he should go out with the army was definitely not a good thing, and the calculations would eventually fall on him.

"Alas!" Liang Qi sighed and said, "Du Ji's army has been besieging Tia City for nearly two years. A tight company camp has been set up outside the city, with no gaps to penetrate, and there are more than 100,000 troops stationed there. Others It is impossible to break through the encirclement of Du Ji's army. In the whole world, you are the only one who can do this. "

After a pause, he took a deep breath and continued: "Of course, if Yuan Rang feels that he can't do it, then there is no need to force it. We will discuss the plague tactics..."

Shangguan Yuanrang rolled his eyes at Liang Qi angrily, stood up straight, picked up the helmet on the table, put it on his head, and said as he walked out: "You don't need to provoke me with words, I won't take advantage of you. One set! Tomorrow, I go to Tia City. What does a mere company mean? What can hundreds of thousands of barbarians do to me? "

Looking at Shangguan Yuanrang's leaving figure, Liang Qi chuckled, then lowered his head, and looked at the map intently. His fingers kept tracing on it, and he muttered something. He didn't know what he was mumbling. What.

The next day, the Sanshui Army launched a feint attack on Val Town, while Shangguan Yuanrang was preparing to leave for Tia City.

Liang Qi originally wanted to send Shangguan Yuanrang thousands of people and a translator who was proficient in Tiya language, but Shangguan Yuanrang refused. After breaking through the encirclement of more than 100,000 people, only a few thousand people could not help much, but were still a burden. As for Language is not a problem. Just by reading books, the relationship between Tiya and Ningguo is so good, and there are certainly many Tiya people who are proficient in the language of the Haotian Empire.

Before Shangguan Yuanrang left, Liang Qi specifically told him that after successfully entering the city of Tia, he must ask Qingti about the situation of the runner-up army. As long as the combat power of the tier-two army can reach 30% of his own combat power, he can easily bypass Val. Town, it is feasible to cooperate with the Tia army inside and outside to attack the main force of Duji army.

Shangguan Yuanrang carefully wrote down Liang Qi's instructions, and then he alone, without any troops, bypassed Var Town and went to Tia City.

The west of Vaal Town was under the control of Du Ji's army. Shangguan Yuanrang's journey westward was not peaceful, and he encountered small groups of Du Ji's army from time to time. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, he captured and killed a small leader of Du Jijun and put on Du Jijun's armor. This did bring him a lot of convenience. When he met Du Jijun again, as long as he didn't speak , you can get through smoothly.

Shangguan Yuanrang traveled all the way west, sleeping in the open air, traveling day and night, and soon arrived at Tia City.

Before seeing the city of Tia, he first saw the Duji army camp outside the city.

Perhaps the Duji army has been fighting under the city of Tia for too long. After a long period of continuous construction and repair, the company and battalion have become densely packed and connected, as if they have built a circle outside the city of Tia. Within the city wall, there are even several tall and solemn temples built within the company camp, where Du Jijun can pray and seek blessings after rest. There are also altars and other buildings to commemorate the spirits of fallen soldiers. The huge company The camp has become several connected villages and towns.

After Shangguan Yuanrang took a look, he urged his horse to move forward slowly. As he got closer and closer to Du Jijun's company camp, the outline of Tia City inside gradually became clearer.

The city of Tia is the capital of Tia. The city wall is strong and high, and there is a wide moat on the outside. Looking inside the city, many cylindrical tower buildings are much taller than the city wall. You can see them outside the city, especially Shangguan Yuanrang estimated that the tower in the center of the city must be at least ten feet tall, soaring straight into the sky. It was so frighteningly tall that it was hard to imagine how such a tall tower was built.

He watched while walking, and unknowingly he was approaching the camp of Du Jijun.

He was continuing to walk forward when a ten-man cavalry squad came over quickly. When Shangguan Yuanrang approached, the cavalrymen reined in their horses and asked: "Which regiment are you from? (Dukei) language)"

Shangguan Yuanrang didn't understand. He looked around at the ten cavalrymen, said nothing, and continued to move forward with his chest held high.

"Hey! We asked which regiment you are from! Are you deaf? (Dukei language)" A Duki cavalryman urged his horse to Shangguan Yuanrang and tapped his helmet with the whip in his hand.

Because Du Ji's helmet had a face protector, Du Jijun couldn't see Shangguan Yuanrang's appearance, nor did he recognize that he was not a Du Ji.

Shangguan Yuanrang tilted his head, and without any warning, he suddenly raised his hand, snatched the opponent's riding crop away, and threw it to the ground.

"Ah!" Unexpectedly, he was so arrogant and dared to snatch his riding whip away. The Duji cavalryman screamed strangely and raised his fist to hit him.

But before his fist could be punched out, Shangguan Yuanrang slammed his feet into the stirrups, and he and his horse passed by the Duji cavalryman. Before the other party could recover, Shangguan Yuanrang, who had already rushed over, suddenly He reached back and grabbed the Duki cavalryman by the back of his neck. He didn't see how hard he was. He just lifted it lightly and picked it up in his hand. Then he threw it outwards, and there was a thud in his ears. There was a muffled sound, and the cavalryman flew out and hit a companion behind him. They both screamed and fell off their horses.
