Chapter 168
The two sections of the line of defense are two high slopes, and two cavalry cavalry ambushed by tigers and leopards. Each cavalry carries several quiveres and nearly a hundred arrows with feathers!
Behind the line of defense, the white-robed army lined up.

Every thirty steps, a giant bed crossbow is placed, covered by a tent, mysterious and terrifying!
The first step of Zhao Yuankai's tactics is to fight long-range consumption.

The bed crossbow played the leading role, and the tiger and leopard rider played the supporting role. In the first encounter, Yuan Shichong's army was cut in half!
Of course.

In Zhao Yuankai's tactical layout, there is a variable with great hidden dangers.

That is, after Yuan Shichong raised his troops to the south, he did not engage in a frontal attack, but divided his troops into two groups, making a roundabout encirclement, and directly staggered the frontal strike range of the bed crossbow!
This possibility is actually not great.

the reason is simple.

First, Yuan Shichong did not know the existence of the bed crossbow!

Second, the position of the defense line chosen by Zhao Yuankai, the flank terrain is towering, and he wants to double-team the road with a large section of climbing.

Third, if Yuan Shichong does have iron chain cavalry, and Zhao Yuankai's exposed main line is in a shrinking defensive position outside the city, Yuan Shichong will most likely choose to attack head-on!

Of course.

Variables are also within the scope of Zhao Yuankai's consideration.

Once Yuan Shichong is double-teamed, he should turn the bed crossbow urgently. Although the bed crossbow is heavy, half of the white-robed army has entered the realm of martial arts!
Moreover, the Tianzi Division, who is at the core of the fan-shaped defense, has not changed much, and can fully cope with it!

only……

The tiger and leopard riders will face too much pressure!
And the greatest possibility.

That is, Yuan Shichong will split up two forces to meet the tiger and leopard cavalry on the flanks, and pull out Zhao Yuankai's two flank support!

Then the real main force is still the main force of the white-robed army that is attacking Zhao Yuankai head-on!

This does not require the Divine Crossbow Battalion to change.

However, the pressure on the tiger and leopard riders is still not small.

……

……

Xihe County.

at this time.

The entire Xihe Corridor to the north of Xihe County is densely packed with soldiers and horses!
The [-]th army of the Beirong, after implanting the ten tiger generals of the Yuanmen, completely obeyed the orders of the Yuan family of the Yanmen!

Wu Tingzhi, the prince of Beirong, was forced to stay by Yuan Shichong's side, handed over the military talisman, and his military power was completely emptied!

Yuan Shichong's march was extremely fast.

When passing through Xihe County, he didn't make any stops, and went straight fifty miles south, and at midnight, Chen Bing was on the banks of the Motuo River, twenty miles away from Shangjun, to take his last rest before the war!
Although the main forces of the two armies did not confront each other head-on.

But the war has already begun.

Since Tianzi Division Chen Bing went to the county, the intelligence personnel of the two sides, such as scouts and scouts, had countless small-scale confrontations between Shangjun and Xihe!
But this confrontation came to an abrupt end two days ago.

Because Zhao Yuankai of Chen Bing Shangjun directly changed the strategy of the battle, focusing on defense!

And this allowed Yuan Shichong to obtain a lot of information!
now.

The moon is full of stars.

In the tent of the commander in chief of Yuan Zhuo's army, a topographic map of Bingzhou was drawn on the tiger skin, and there was a sand table map of Shangjun of Bingzhou on the table!
The Yuan family of Yanmen has been in Bingzhou for 800 years!

They are all too familiar with Bingzhou, especially Shangjun, the capital city!

In the tent, Yuan Shichong has a tiger head and black armor, and the ten tiger generals of the Yuan family line up on both sides.

Only Wu Tingzhi was not in the camp.

"Emperor Wudi is a bit interesting today. The tactic of defending and waiting for reinforcements is not to retreat to the county town, but to place the troops outside the city!"

Yuan Shili frowned, looked at the information in his hand, and said in doubt.

Then, he went on to analyze:
"And looking at Emperor Tianwu's Chen Bing's land, it's a good defensive position. It's flat in the middle, with high slopes on both sides, just enough for his more than 3 soldiers to lay down an effective defensive front!"

"If there is no accident, there must be cavalry ambushed on this flank. It should be the tiger and leopard cavalry equipped with saddles and stirrups."

"Patriarch, Emperor Tianwu seems to want to have a touch with us, and then retreat back to Shangjun City!"

"Otherwise, his reinforcements are already on the way, and he is not afraid of our flanking at all!"

"But no matter what, Emperor Tianwu's troops are outside the county town. This is our great opportunity!"

It is indeed a big opportunity!
The Yanmen Yuan family is different from others.

Their strategy is also clear.

Siege of cities and villages is second, and the most important point is to eliminate the main force of the Han Dynasty!
Yuan Shichong frowned and listened to Yuan Shili's words very seriously.

Among the ten tiger generals of the Yuan clan, he admires Yuan Shili the most. Although his cultivation level is not high, he is familiar with the art of war and has excellent plans!
But Yuan Shichong did not agree with these words!

"My Yuan family of Yanmen has endured the layout of Yanmen for a hundred years. Farming, smelting iron, and the heavy cavalry built by iron cables will sweep the world!"

"His stirrups and saddles allow the cavalry to free their hands and increase their combat power several times. Emperor Tianwu is very superstitious about his tiger and leopard cavalry. They are deployed on the high slopes on the flanks. I must have predicted that my troops will divide into two groups!"

"However, heavy cavalry with iron cables is a secret of my Yuan Clan, and Emperor Tianwu doesn't even know about it."

"So this time I'm going to attack his line of defense head-on!"

"As for his flank, divide it into [-] cavalry, as long as it is involved!"

"Shili, what do you think?"

Yuan Shichong asked.

Yuan Shili pondered for a moment, nodded and said:
"Patriarch, I think it is feasible!"

"It's safe to divide the troops into two groups, but after meeting the tiger and leopard cavalry, we can't keep them if they want to run away."

"And at this time, the white-robed army, the main force of Tianwu Emperor's infantry, has time to retreat back to the county. At that time, we can only fight the siege."

"Although the Han Dynasty fell apart, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses. If the follow-up Xiliang army really comes to reinforce them, it will be troublesome!"

however.

After Yuan Shili said these words, his brows were still furrowed.

He always felt that something was wrong and felt uneasy, but he still couldn't figure out why he was uneasy.

After thinking about it, he still couldn't help mentioning:
"Patriarch, logically speaking, Emperor Tianwu should have retreated to the county town. Outside Chen Bing's city... it's always weird!"

"There are two possibilities, either reinforcements are behind, or Emperor Wu was too conceited that day!"

"The little Emperor Tianwu's successive victories must be inflated. In addition, he only knows that the Yuan family of Yanmen can borrow 20 troops from Beirong, but he doesn't know that we have [-] heavy cavalry!"

"Pass down the order, two hours later, without waiting for dawn, directly march south!"

Yuan Shichong shouted with red eyes.

He is very confident, extremely confident!

As long as Emperor Tianwu's soldiers and horses are not in the county, his iron chain heavy cavalry will shock the world in one battle, and directly push Tianwu Emperor's more than 3 emperors!
at any cost!

Regardless of any casualties!

……

……

Shang County.

The emperor's division commander camp.

A quarter of an hour ago.

The scouts came to report that there was a large army going south from Xihe County, and the earth was shaking!
 One watch owed, five watches tomorrow, Dingyanmen!

  Good night, sweet dreams
