Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 867 Surrounding Nanpi, Jia Xu came to help

The eastern suburbs of Fancheng.

Guo Jia spent the whole afternoon getting everything ready.

When Hong Liancheng returned with his troops.

Guo Jia praised Hong Liancheng in front of the frontline soldiers, and then said: "Mr. Hong, you go back to Fancheng to rest. The battle here is under my command."

"Yes."

Hong Liancheng returned to Fancheng with his troops.

Guo Jia stayed to direct.

About ten minutes passed.

The enemy's advance troops arrived.

Just marched into the ambush circle.

Guo Jia then shouted: "Fight!"

Boom boom boom.
Wars with hot weapons always start with artillery.

Blast the enemy into obscurity before using the gun.

The artillery battalion was placed in the rear and could continue the attack.

Round after round.
On the left and right hills, two heavy machine gun companies focused their fire in the middle.

On the front is a large army led by Guo Jia, and the fortifications are extremely strong.The firepower is also very particular.

Under such a defense, it is difficult for the enemy to break through.

Don't talk about rushing over, even getting close is difficult.

The enemy's vanguard troops can't resist after only holding on for a few minutes.

Defeated across the board.

Guo Jia hurriedly said: "Assault team, rush up to me and kill them all..."

"Kill..."

Fifty commandos who had been prepared for a long time, armed with a light machine gun and equipped with four grenades, rushed towards the forward.

The machine guns fired, and the bullets were dense like rain.

There are also troops covering the rear and artillery to provide fire support.

The enemy's troops were quickly wiped out.

Commando is back.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Okay, let's fight like this."

"When the enemy's main force arrives, we will attack more fiercely than before. Push the enemy back. If we hold here, we will be able to hold Fancheng."

"The enemy wants to flank us from Xiling, and it is doomed to fail."

After boosting the morale of the army.

The soldiers all worked hard.

Guo Jia is also full of confidence.

"Sir, there is an urgent letter." A messenger came running.

Guo Jia opened it to look.

This letter was sent by Lu Su.

Lu Su said that now the east and west lines of Xuzhou, and Qiao County in Yuzhou, are threatened by the enemy forces in Yangzhou.If a campaign can be launched to capture Huainan and Shouchun, most of Lu Xun's troops and those stationed in Xuzhou can be transferred to Shouchun, making it easier to garrison.He has already contacted Lu Xun, ready to play a game.However, due to the lack of troops, I want Guo Jia to send troops to attack Yangzhou from Xiling, so as to contain the troops in Yangzhou and buy time for Lu Xun and Lu Su.

After watching it, Guo Jia was very angry: "I just won a few battles, and I can't bear my temper."

He disapproved of the fight.

Because the possibility of failure is very high.

In order to stop Lu Su and Lu Xun, he wrote a letter in his own hand and sent someone to send it.

letter.

Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of both parties clearly.

As the frontline battlefield of the Western Shang Empire, Yangzhou has [-] heavy troops.The rear is Jiangdong, which can continue to provide firearms, ammunition, artillery, and soldiers.Once it changes from a defensive battle to an offensive battle, it is bound to face most of the enemy's forces.

And
Shouchun is an important town in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is not easy to fight.

With Lu Su's first army and Lu Xun's division, the winning rate is almost zero.

The most important thing is that Guo Jia can't get away now.He wants to defend against the enemy troops from Jingzhou.You can't lose Fancheng by attacking Shouchun, that would be more than worth the loss.

After the enemy retreated.

No second round of offensive was launched.

It was the same situation as Gan Ning on the Neijiang River.

"Sir, why haven't the enemies come yet?" Hong Liancheng went back to Fancheng, changed his clothes, and led the guard battalion to the front line.

Guo Jia said: "I have already received the report that the enemy has already arrived five miles away. Before their advance troops, when they fought with us, they were already ready to attack. It may be that our attack was too fierce, which made the opponent a little afraid. "

"Hmph, let them know that China is very powerful."

"Sigh." Guo Jia said regretfully, "I shouldn't have exposed my strength too early."

"We should draw the enemy's main force here, and then attack with all our strength. This way, it will be difficult for them to escape. Now let them realize that our strength is not weaker than theirs, and we have already prepared. I'm afraid..."

"It's better for the last general to lead an army and take the initiative to attack." Hong Liancheng said.

"You are injured, can you still fight?" Guo Jia glanced at his arm.

He was hung with a bandage, and there was blood on the outside of the bandage.

"Sir, the general's injury is fine."

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Don't act rashly. Don't fall into the enemy's trap."

"gentlemen.."

Hong Liancheng was worried that the enemy would flee again, so he said anxiously: "The enemy hastily retreated, how could there be an ambush. The last general only needs one brigade to attack from the front. We can definitely win."

"Needless to say..."

Guo Jia waved his hand and said, "Listen to me, stand still."

Hong Liancheng didn't dare to refute any more.

Considering that he was indeed injured, he was not suitable to lead the army in battle, so he said, "Okay, the general will obey."

Stalemate with the enemy for half a day.

What made Guo Jia speechless was.

The enemy army hesitated, and after dark, they all withdrew.Return to Xiling on the same road.And, set an ambush in the jungle 150 miles away.

Guo Jia was inconvenient to pursue, so he could only watch helplessly as the enemy withdrew.

From this moment on, the troops of the Western Shang Empire in Jingzhou never launched a large-scale invasion campaign.At most, dispatch a naval force to compete with Gan Ning, who controls the Neijiang River. Once the troops are lost, they will withdraw immediately.

Simultaneously.

The Western Shang Empire set up strict defenses in Jingzhou, building defensive forts and gun towers.

A road card was also set up to strictly prohibit outsiders from entering.

Of course, the people of Jingzhou were not allowed to leave.

Guo Jia sent an army to recover Xiling.

Let Hong Liancheng stay in Xiling for a long time.

He himself led the main force, stationed in Fancheng, and confronted the enemy.

Hebei.

Nanpi.

The [-] army led by Xu Ding, after crossing the Yellow River, went north from Pingyuan County and fought all the way to Nanpi.

The enemy wanted to resist.

but
Before they had time to dispatch their troops, they received news from Ye City.Jia Xu led the Dongjin Corps and wiped out their [-] main force.

This meant that Nanpi's troops were left alone.

If they were no match for Xu Ding, they would be in a desperate situation.

Take this into consideration.

Nanpi's army, be careful.

Always be on the defensive.

Xu Ding took advantage of the victory and marched to Nanpi, besieging the enemy in Nanpi City.

"Order the three armies to surround Nanpi first, and not to act rashly. Anyone who acts without authorization will be punished with military law. In addition, Jia Xu from Yecheng was ordered to lead the eastward army to gather in Nanpi. After that, we will attack the city together. "Xu Dingchao Dianwei said.

"promise."

Back to the tent.

Xu Ding used the satellite monitoring system to check more than a hundred miles around Nanpi.

Except for Nanpi City, there are about [-] enemy troops.

There are no enemies outside the city.

Xu Ding let out a sigh of relief.

As long as the enemy is besieged within a certain area, the overall situation is still under control.When Jia Xu led the Dongjin Corps and rushed to Nanpi, it could be recovered here.

It is promised not to attack the city.

The enemy did not move either.

It wasn't until Jia Xu's eastward marching regiment approached the south pickup truck at an extremely fast speed that the enemy army got the news from nowhere and became anxious.

They wanted to break through the siege and evacuate by water.

Promises can't make them do what they want.

Immediately ordered the troops surrounding Nanpi to defend their positions at all costs.Completely blockade Nanpi City.

a few days later.

Jia Xu came with the army.

Join Xu Dingjun.

"Your Majesty, I see your Majesty." Inside the camp, Jia Xu bowed.

"Sir, don't be rude." Xu Ding said with a smile: "I heard that you won the victory in Yecheng and wiped out six enemy brigades. Congratulations. In my Huaxia Kingdom, there is no one who can have such resourcefulness and talent except sir. Several people."

"Your Majesty is overrated."

Signal Jia Xu to take a seat.

Xu Ding also sat down and said, "Sir, do you know how many soldiers and horses the Western Shang Empire has lost?"

"Your Majesty is asking everything?"

"Of course."

Jia Xu thought for a while and replied, "It should be 25."

"We wiped out half of the 20 troops sent by the Western Shang Empire in the first batch. The 35 troops sent later lost 15 in Xuzhou and 25 in Yecheng. In addition, Lu Xun repelled the enemy troops in Qiaojun, and Feng Xiao fought in Fancheng. There are [-] people."

"Ah."

Xu Ding has the final say.

There should still be 30 troops left by the Western Merchant Empire in China.

One hundred thousand of them are in Jingxiang.

Fifty thousand are in Shouchun and Huainan in Yangzhou.

The rest are in Jiangdong.

"We have been fighting for more than a year, and the enemy army is fighting more and more. If this continues, we Huaxia may not be able to sustain it. Wenhe, what do you think?" Xu Ding asked.

Jia Xu said: "I suggest that you strengthen the navy!"

"As long as we control the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, the Western Shang Empire will not be able to overcome any storms..."

Jia Xu's suggestion was the same as Xu Ding's.

Immediately, Xu Ding was a little surprised: "Wen He, you have spoken to my heart. This is exactly what I have been thinking about day and night. At present, Gan Ning is still in Fancheng. When the Battle of Fancheng and the Battle of Nanpi are over, he will Build a strong navy."

"As long as we have a strong navy, it will be very difficult for the Western Shang Empire to pass the Yangtze River no matter whether it is advancing or retreating. It is even more impossible to drive straight into Hebei as it is now."

"Yes."

Jia Xu stood up, took out a map from his pocket, and put it in front of Xu Ding: "Your Majesty, please take a look. The land on the east of the river is surrounded by the Yangtze River. Every time they send a soldier, a car, or transport luggage, they have to pass through the Yangtze River. To the west of the Yangtze River is Yangzhou. To the north of the Yangtze River is the Yellow Sea. If we have a powerful naval force sailing in these waters, the Western Shang Empire will never dare to act presumptuously."

"Ah."

Xu Ding had already seen the map.

Whether it is Hebei, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, or even Luoyang, water battles are possible.Jiangdong's navy can reach anywhere.

If there is a navy to cut off the Yangtze River, how dare the Western Shang Empire dare to be presumptuous.

"We will start to deal with this matter when we return to Xuchang. It is estimated that the Battle of Fancheng will be over by then, and Gan Ning's navy will be free." Xu Ding said.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Jia Xu nodded in response.

The day after Jia Xu arrived in Nanpi City, the enemy troops stationed in Nanpi City began a large-scale counterattack.In this counterattack, they used [-]% of their military force, and they fought quite fiercely.

However.
Xu Ding was not worried.

Because Jia Xu's eastward marching regiment has come here.

Combined with his army, there are [-] people.

On the other hand, the enemy army is only [-].

The disparity in military strength is so great that the enemy is doomed to have no reinforcements and food if they are sitting in an isolated city.Whether it is a quick fight or a slow fight, it is difficult to have an advantage.

Xu Ding commanded from the rear.

Jia Xu is in command at the front.

While resisting the enemy, the strategy of persuading surrender was also implemented.

On this point, Jia Xu has always held objections.

He felt that the Western Merchant Empire was ambitious, and it was impossible to truly submit to it. Once the opportunity arises, it will definitely rebel.Instead of waiting until then, it is better to kill them all now.

Fight the enemy for several days.

Jia Xu suggested again: "My lord, the army of the Western Shang Empire must not be allowed to surrender to us. This is breeding tigers. We and them are people from two worlds. How can we really surrender?"

"Wenhe is too worried."

Xu Ding said: "The Western Shang Empire's invasion of China was an act of injustice. The people and soldiers of the Western Shang Empire invaded us only after receiving orders from high-level officials. Actually, we don't even know what happened."

"If there is a chance for a truce, I believe they will."

"What's the use of this?"

Jia Xu said: "The people and the soldiers cannot decide the war."

"Have you ever heard a saying that the people can carry a boat, and they can also overturn it. If the Western Shang Empire ignores the people, the morale of the army will be unstable. This will be of great help to us in repelling their army."

Xu Ding said.

Jia Xu continued to retort: ​​"The Western Shang Empire is not in China. They are in another world. No matter how many enemy soldiers we surrender, it will not affect their army."

"Wenhe..."

Xu Ding didn't know what to say.

He said: "Don't argue with me about this matter. When you were in Xuzhou before, you led troops to Hebei. I tried it once with Feng Xiao, and the effect was very good."

"When the enemy is cornered, it is possible to surrender. Why not do it if you can minimize casualties?"

"Furthermore, when we encounter enemy troops in the future, it will be much easier for us to send their people to persuade them to surrender. In the long run, we may be able to win without fighting."

Jia Xu really wanted to say something naive.

Are the soldiers of the Western Shang Empire so easy to deceive?

But
He didn't say it after all.

Now that Xu Ding has decided, let's try it.If not, it's never too late to kill.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "I honor your majesty's imperial decree. We will try our best to persuade the troops of the Western Shang Empire to surrender. We will implement a soft policy."

"That's right." Xu Ding asked, "How is the front line now?"

"Your Majesty, the enemy army is already doomed. As long as we launch another full-scale attack, they will definitely be defeated." Jia Xu said.

"Don't remember to attack in an all-round way. You can send someone to talk to them to see if there is any possibility of the other party returning."

"Yes."

Jia Xu was very reluctant to do this.

However, in order to implement the promised policy, he still obeyed the order.

this day.

Outside Nanpi City.

Jia Xu took the guard battalion to the other side of the moat.Under the cover of the guard battalion, he shouted to the tower: "Listen, people in the city, you are surrounded, as long as I give an order, you will not survive."

"Your Majesty is willing to show mercy and allow you to surrender. If anyone is willing to put down their weapons and open the city gate to welcome them, I, China, will accept them."
