Chapter 767: Burn Your Boats and Fight to the Death. In This Battle, We Must Get Food From Qin! A Letter From the Court Has Arrived!

chaos!

The northwest of Neihuang City has become a mess!

Group after group of Qin army soldiers and horses continued to divide their forces, join forces, and move forward.

Often, a Yan army scout would just report that a Qin army had arrived at a certain city, and then another scout would return and report that the Qin army had begun to besiege another city.

Yan Dan's eyes hurt from looking at the huge battlefield that affected Julu County, Dong County and a small part of Handan County.

The different trajectories of sometimes more than a dozen or sometimes dozens of Qin armies overloaded Yan Dan's brain, and he often even looked at one thing and lost sight of the other.

The flying speed did not give Yan Dan more time to think, forcing Yan Dan to issue orders quickly.

If it weren't for midsummer now, Yan Dan's head would probably be smoking!

"Bang!"

The anxious Yan Dan punched the map of Kun and asked angrily: "What on earth does Lord Qin Changan want?!"

"The Qin army often only besieged the city for a day or even half a day, and then quickly withdrew upon seeing our army. This would only make the county magistrates of various cities look down upon the Qin army, making it easier for our army to persuade the county magistrates to surrender."

"With Lord Qin Changan's fighting style, how can he capture the city?"

Yan Badger said quietly: "The strength of a country does not depend on its immediate victory or defeat."

"Strength or weakness does not depend on a momentary advance or retreat."

"Today, thirteen cities including Yanghu, Tunshi, Lieren, and Chengxiang have fallen into the hands of the Qin army."

"The only ones taken by our army were the seven cities including Yuancheng, Beiqiu, and Liao."

Yan Badger's voice was not loud, but it pierced Yan Dan's heart like a sharp blade.

Even if Ying Chengyu's troops ran away when they saw the Yan army, how could the county magistrates be fooled by appearances?

In today's world, whether Qin or Yan is stronger, whether Ying Chengyu or Yan Dan is better at fighting, can they not know it in their minds?

Are you saying that Ying Chengyu’s tactics can’t capture the city?

But in fact, Ying Chengyu captured many more cities than our army!

Yan Dan clenched his right fist tightly, then slowly released it, kneeling down facing Yan Badger and bowing his head: "This battle is related to the rise and fall of my great Yan!"

"Whether our country, Dayan, can wipe out decades of decline and become stronger all depends on this battle!"

"If Vice-General Yan has any good ideas, I hope that Vice-General Yan will teach the orphans!"

Looking at Yan Dan kneeling on the ground, all the generals were filled with astonishment.

The swallow badger even made everyone numb!

Although Yan Badger had long heard that Yan Dan would kneel down to greet Ju Wu, Tian Guang and other talented people he valued every time.

But Yan Badger really didn't expect that Yan Dan would kneel down to him as the deputy general as the coach!

Yan Badger is not someone like Tian Guang who only cares about enjoying respect without caring about the consequences.

Yan Badger knows very well how terrifying it is to be treated with such a heavy courtesy by the prince of a country!

Without even listening to what Yan Dan said behind him, Yan Badger glided to the side of Yan Dan as quickly as possible and helped Yan Dan up with all his strength: "Prince, please get up! Please get up quickly!"

"The prince is the commander-in-chief of this army, and the last general is also the deputy-general of this army."

"To give advice to the commander and help our Dayan win is exactly what a general should do!"

"Prince, you don't have to be like this!"

After being forcibly dragged to his feet, Yan Dan looked at Yan Badger with a promising look: "Does Deputy General Yan really have a good plan?"

Yan Badger no longer dared to be weird and just touch up the damage, and said seriously: "It's not a good strategy, it's just a bad strategy!"

Looking at the map of Kun, Yan Badger said in a deep voice: "At the beginning of this battle, I thought that Qin Chang'an Lord intended to seize the northern cities of our army, so as to cut off our army's supplies and trap our army within the territory of Qin. ”

"But after the battle to this day, I think that Lord Qin Chang'an may not care about the gains and losses of a city or a place at all."

"In the eyes of Lord Qin Chang'an, all the old Zhao cities in the north of Neihuang City are just bait to lure our army!"

"Qin Chang'an Lord only cares about whether these baits can induce our army to split up and fight with him, but he doesn't care whether these cities will come under our army's rule!"

Yan Dan frowned when he heard this: "Jun Qin Changan, this is..."

Suddenly, the situation of several wars such as Qin Qi's defeat of Chu appeared in Yan Dan's mind.

Yan Dan said with an ugly face: "Qin Chang'an Lord has made the battlefield extremely complicated, so complicated that I can't control it."

"If this is the case, our army will be full of flaws and can be killed by the Qin army at will?!"

This is the basic military training that many generals will encounter when they first engage in large-scale combat.

For example, Ying Chengyu was given similar military training by Pang Nuan and Xiang Yan in different ways.

This style of play does not involve any tactics, tactics, or any earth-shattering strategies and strategies.

What they were fighting was only the basic skills of the generals on both sides, such as their ability to control large armies and their ability to understand large-scale battlefields.

This is the simplest way to play, but it is also the most difficult way to play!

Yan Badger nodded slowly: "I thought that was the case."

"Although the prince is older than Lord Qin Chang'an, his experience in conquering the battlefield is far inferior to Lord Qin Chang'an."

"I think many of Qin Changan Lord's actions are all to induce our army to divide our troops on a large scale and attack various cities like the Qin army, so that the battlefield environment becomes more and more complicated."

"Then Lord Qin Changan can rely on his rich experience to defeat our army!"

During the Battle of Fukouxing, Ying Chengyu dragged Li Mu into Xingdao, a low-level battlefield with many restrictions, and used his rich experience to defeat Li Mu and win.

Today, Ying Chengxuan dragged Yan Dan into the high-end battlefield of the large-scale rapid response battle of the large corps, and once again tried to use his rich experience to defeat Yan Dan.

In Ying Chengyu's view, he was bullying the weak and afraid of the strong!

But after Yan Dan was silent for a few breaths, he smiled in relief: "As expected of Gu's old friend!"

"There are many people in our Dayan Dynasty who don't believe that Gu is qualified to be our Dayan coach."

"Qin Chang'an Lord has gone all out even before meeting Gu, and even treats Gu as a general!"

"It's a pity..." Yan Dan looked at the map of Kun in front of him and said feebly: "Old friends Gu Rang, I let you all down."

Yan Badger and other generals hurriedly handed over their hands: "The prince must not say such things."

"Our army will win!"

As his eyes flicked over the chess pieces, Yan Dan knew very clearly that he was really not capable of dealing with such a complicated war.

If the fight continues like this, Yan Dan can only lead the Yan army to a dead end, and it will also ruin the chance of victory that Yan has finally waited for!

After struggling for more than ten breaths, Yan Dan was heartbroken and shouted in a deep voice: "Pass the solitary order!"

"The envoy continues to lobby the cities in the north and try his best to open up a transportation route for our army."

"All troops and horses must abandon the northern cities!"

"If there is a city that has been captured, take all the food and grass in the city and return!"

Gongsun Gao hurriedly whispered: "If we only rely on envoys..."

Yan Dan waved his sleeves: "Since our army can't take it, then we won't take it."

"I have little experience and am really incapable of fighting separately with Lord Qin Chang'an."

"Instead of being divided and attacked by Lord Qin Chang'an and constantly weakening our army, we should concentrate our forces and fight the Qin army to the death!"

"Let me tell the whole army again that our army's supply line can no longer be maintained."

"The food in the camp is the last food reserve for our army."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar: "No!"

"Food is the foundation of an army. Soldiers go out to fight just to have enough to eat and drink. If our army cannot even guarantee the food and grass for our soldiers, how can our soldiers dare to fight!"

"The general believes that there is no need to inform the entire army about the lack of food!"

However, Yan Dan said firmly: "You don't need to remonstrate anymore!"

"My mind has been made up!"

"Tell me that Dayan's warriors have plenty of food and grass!"

"It's just not in our army's supply camp, but in the Qin army's supply camp."

"I hope you all will be brave enough to defeat the Qin army!"

"Contribute food to Qin!"

——

The next day.

At the top of Tun's city, a scout raised his hands and shouted: "Commander, the Yan army dispersed yesterday to send troops to all the Yan troops."

"The generals of the Yan army's central army said directly in the barracks that the supply of supplies has been cut off."

"If you want to get food, you can only defeat our army and eat our army's grain!"

Jingpo and other remaining captains suddenly showed angry expressions on their faces: "Eating our army's grain? How arrogant!"

"Although our army is outnumbered now, the Yan army is in ruins! How dare Prince Dan of Yan issue such an order!"

"Prince Yan Dan intends to defeat our army quickly? Prince Yan stabbed my king first and humiliated our army behind. I will definitely kill this person!"

Ying Chengyu's eyes finally left the Kunyu map and turned to the direction of Neihuang. A hint of sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth: "The last general of the Yan Kingdom, the hope for the rise of the Yan Kingdom."

"That's it?"

"The most I can do is divide our troops into thirty-six groups."

"Can't you bear it anymore?"

After all, the number of troops under Ying Chengyu's command was less than 200,000, so the style of play used by Ying Chengyu could only be regarded as a youth version of large army tactics, and its complexity was much weaker than when Ying Chengyu and Xiang Yan fought.

Ying Chengyu thought this would be an appetizer he gave to Yan Dan.

Ying Chengyu didn't expect that this appetizer would almost choke Yan Dan to death!

The corner of Jingpo's mouth twitched slightly, and he cursed in his heart: "Although Chu Shangzhu and Yan Guo have died."

"The coach won't humiliate Chu Shangzhu Guoyan like this, right?"

Compare Yan Dan, a young man who set foot on the battlefield for the first time, with the Shangzhu State of Chu who had been fighting for a lifetime.

This is definitely the biggest humiliation Xiang Yan has ever received!

But it doesn't matter whether Xiang Yan is humiliated or not.

Anyway, Xiang Yan is not his son-in-law!

Jing Po smiled and handed over his hand: "It seems that the battle situation is as expected by the coach."

"Prince Dan of Yan wants to join forces for a decisive battle!"

Ying Chengzhen frowned slightly: "I would rather Prince Yan Dan fight with me for a few more days."

"Although our army is elite, it has been on the march for a long time and has gone through fierce battles, and it has become exhausted."

"In this battle, our army is outnumbered and the enemy's force is overwhelming."

"If it were a direct confrontation..."

While pondering, Ying Chengyu suddenly asked: "Is there any military report from General Pi Li Xin's department?"

The hexagram master immediately said: "Not yet. As of the last military report, General Pi Li Xin has detoured into Hengshan County and is expected to join our army in six days."

Ying Chengyu said in a broken voice: "I am sending an order to General Li Xin. There is no need to join forces with this general."

"Transfer directly to Julu County and cooperate with our army's troops to attack the Yan army's troops."

"Tell Li Xin to run for me, general!"

A messenger suddenly handed over his hand: "Wei!"

But before the messenger could leave, a scout hurried onto the city and shouted in a low voice: "Commander!"

"The troops are arriving from the DPRK!"
