Chapter 1143 If the Snipe and the Clam Don't Fight, Then We Will Catch the Snipe and Eat the Clam! Our only Enemy Is Time!

Yan Wangxi was eager to achieve success and took the lead in opening the prelude to the war. Donghu defended and counterattacked to protect the territory. Xiongnu did not know that the king's court was in danger and was relaxing and stirring up trouble.

The three-way battle made the northeast bank of Nanshui (now Nenjiang River) a mess!

The three-way soldiers did not know that a large number of former herdsmen or Yan soldiers had disguised themselves as herdsmen or Yan soldiers to sneak into the battlefield and conduct reconnaissance around them. There were also pairs of eyes looking far away on the southwest bank of Nanshui.

"Report!" A scout returned on a fishing boat and spoke immediately after landing: "According to our investigation, the Donghu tribe is located in the northeast of the battlefield, with about 200,000 soldiers, the Xiongnu tribe is located in the northwest of the battlefield, with about 100,000 soldiers, and the Yan army is located in the southeast of the battlefield, with 60,000 to 80,000 soldiers."

"The Yan army and the Xiongnu are obviously from a long expedition, and the Donghu tribe is still wearing new clothes."

"The grass on the battlefield ahead has been exposed, which should be a large army that has been confronting and stationed in front for a long time. There are not many bloodstains and corpses on the battlefield, but when our troops were investigating, the Yan army was attacking the Donghu and was defeated, and the Xiongnu rescued the Yan army."

"There are six water beaches (water bubbles) in the southeast of the main battlefield, which are not connected to the river. Lian, the specific depth has not been explored, the water is drinkable, and it is now occupied by the Yan army. "

"The Nenjiang River comes from the north of the battlefield, detours to the west at 50 miles northwest, and then turns northeast here, and then continues to go south. "

Hearing the scout's report, Su Jiao smacked his lips: "I thought the war was almost over, and I was afraid that I would not be able to catch up and reap the benefits. "

"But I never thought that the enemy army had just started a war?"

"The enemy army is too patient!"

There is no city north of Beihoucheng, Xiangping County. After the Yan army went north, even if it broke through the Donghu tribe, it would be difficult to defend the city. It can only continue to go north to find a suitable place to live and build a city.

The marching trend map of the Yan army was given to the Qin army by the people of Yan State, allowing the Qin army to run north along the safe road cleared by the Yan army.

Only 25 days after leaving Beihoucheng, Xiangping County, the Qin army has traveled more than 1,300 miles.

I hurried the whole way just because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to drink a mouthful of hot soup.

And now you tell me that the snipe and the clam haven't started fighting yet?

You snipe and the clam are too lame!

Yang Hu smiled and said, "For our army, this is a good thing."

"Our army has traveled more than 1,300 miles, and the soldiers are so tired that it is not convenient for them to join the battle immediately."

"Now the enemy has just started fighting, and I think it will not end in a short time, which just gives our army a chance to rest!"

"Our army can camp and rest a hundred miles away to accumulate strength."

"When our army rests properly, the 660,000 troops will march north and swallow the enemy in an instant!"

Although it is difficult for Ying Chengjiao to conceal his whereabouts with 660,000 troops marching north, the distance of a hundred miles is far beyond the enemy's reconnaissance range.

It would be wonderful to hide farther away and take a good rest before catching snipes and eating clams!

Su Jiao smiled and nodded: "Captain Yang is right!"

But Ying Chengjiao frowned slightly: "The enemy can wait, but our army cannot."

"The enemy is fighting, and our army is the best possibility."

"But if the enemy does not fight, our army cannot let time pass in vain."

"Our army's biggest enemy in this battle is not Donghu, nor Xiongnu, nor Yan State, but time!"

Ying Chengjiao's army has 660,000 soldiers, Li Mu's army has 170,000 soldiers, a total of 830,000 troops on an expedition of more than a thousand miles on the grassland. Ying Chengjiao can already imagine how collapsed the Hancang is now.

If the Qin army rests here for one more day, it will be a heavy blow to the Qin granary.

More importantly, it is almost June now.

The temperature is dropping!

Looking at the smoke rising in the distance, Ying Chengjiao thought for a moment and then turned to look at the Donghu surrendered generals: "Which general is familiar with the geographical advantages of this place?"

Ha Tujin immediately rode forward and bowed solemnly: "God! My tribe is 500 miles northeast of here."

"I am quite familiar with this place!"

Following Ha Tujin, several Donghu generals rode forward.

Seeing this, Ying Chengjiao smiled and nodded: "Very good!"

"Captain Peng Yue!" Ying Chengjiao turned his head and looked at Peng Yue and said: "In the battle of Fukouxing and the battle of attacking Chu, you led the army to invade the enemy's territory and harass the enemy with guerrilla warfare."

"In this battle, do you dare to lead the army into the enemy's territory again and block the enemy's retreat for our army?"

Peng Yue's heart trembled a little.

I used to be a fisherman. There are many rivers and lakes in this place. I seem to be very suitable for fighting here.

But I am a real southerner, and this is the real northernmost land, where the geographical conditions and customs are completely different!

However, facing Ying Chengjiao's expectant eyes, Peng Yue still bowed solemnly: "I am willing to lead the way for the commander!"

Ying Chengjiao smiled and nodded: "Very good!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and book in 16, 9, and forum!

Then Ying Chengjiao ordered solemnly: "Pass on my order!"

"Fake lieutenant Ha Tujin, fake lieutenant... and other six lieutenants all obey the command of lieutenant Peng Yue, and transfer 17,000 elite soldiers to lieutenant Peng Yue, totaling 70,000 troops."

"Order lieutenant Peng Yue to lead his troops across the Nanshui River, bypass eastward and sneak into Xia Si A Lin (Lesser Khingan Mountains), and go north along Xia Si A Lin to the south bank of Jingqili River (now the south bank of Konstantinovka, Russia), and then encircle westward for 200 miles, and set up defenses along the way."

"If you encounter the Donghu tribe, first order the fake lieutenants to try to surrender, if they are unwilling to return to Qin?"

"Plow it!"

The encirclement Ying Chengjiao handed over to Peng Yue was as wide as 800 miles!

Peng Yue had never tried such a vast combat radius!

But Peng Yue also knew that Donghu was sparsely populated, and it was normal not to meet a single person within a hundred miles. If you want to fight in Donghu, you must adapt to large-scale battles.

Looking at Ha Tujin and others, Peng Yue made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "This order is very difficult. I ask the commander to allocate at least 500 Daqin military academy students who are above the first grade of Donghu language as helpers."

"In this way, I will be able to complete the order!"

Although Ha Tujin and others have shown their loyalty to the Qin State, and even claimed that Ying Chengjiao is a god, Peng Yue always believes that those who are not of my race must have different hearts!

Peng Yue needs a group of loyal, victorious, good style, unyielding and core generals who can adapt to the combat environment of Donghu as the cornerstone of the middle and grassroots, and then use them to firmly control the troops of various units in the hands of Daqin.

Ying Chengjiao said without hesitation: "I agree!"

"I don't need your troops to harass us for a long time, nor do I need you to defeat the enemy in one battle. I just need you to hide your troops in this area. Once you find the enemy deserters or get my order, you will rush out and surround them, so that the enemy will not dare to escape to the northeast."

"In this way, it is a full order!"

Peng Yue breathed a sigh of relief and bowed loudly: "I will obey your order!"

Ying Chengjiao continued: "Order!"

"All After two days of rest, Wei Qianghuai, Duwei Renxiao, and Duwei Yanghu marched westward to Jin'alin (Daxing'anling Mountains), and sneaked northward for 200 miles in the Jin'alin Mountains, waiting for the order from this general! "

"Before receiving the order from this general, if you encounter the enemy, you should stay put and let them pass freely."

Qianghuai and the other two bowed without hesitation: "Yes!"

After thinking for a while, Ying Chengjiao continued: "The rest of the troops will go south to the water beach for 120 miles and set up camp to rest!"
