Chapter 417 Start Siege

*
According to Su Qi's order, Han Dong only brought 3000 troops, and quietly lay in ambush in the mountains to the east.

In the afternoon, sure enough, a small group of Yan troops entered the mountain quietly.

The cold winter didn't move, and it wasn't until it got dark that he ordered people to make some noise, creating the illusion that there were many of them in the mountains, and then deliberately led the Yan army to walk along the small paths in the mountains.

The small group of Yan troops followed the movement for most of the night, but they didn't see where the people went, but they found that there were several small roads in the mountain that could go all the way to the south. The leader thought, could it be from here, Can you go around too?
Because it was midnight, looking at the previous movement, there should be Su's army in the mountain, maybe they were planning to do some tricks, so he didn't go further, but led people back along the small roads overnight.

"Your Majesty, the Su family army seems to be ambushing in the mountains to the east. We were worried about fraud, so we did not continue to follow, but we found that there are several trails in the mountains, which should lead to the outside of Wangbei City. We will continue to investigate tomorrow. ?”

When Yan Xuning heard the report, he pondered for a while: "Go early tomorrow morning, and find out if it is really possible to get out of the North City. How is the terrain in the mountains?"

"The mountain in the east is relatively barren, and there are still a lot of farmland. It seems that the mountain people here are farming. So the terrain is relatively better than the mountain in the west. The terrain in the west is steep, and there is almost no place to pass." road.

"Okay, quickly find out the situation in the mountains to the east, it's best to find out how many people they sent to hide there." Yan Xuning ordered.

"Yes."

Yan Xuning looked down at the map on the table, looking across the North City from here, apart from taking the official road from the north gate of the tower to the south gate, the only way to go is in the mountains to the east.There is a mark on the map to pass here, which means that this place is passable.

There are two reasons why the Su family army now occupies Wangbei City. One is to rely on the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain of Wangbei City to delay the time as much as possible.The second is that when they have no way to retreat, they can temporarily retreat to the mountains.

So they entered the mountain at this moment, I am afraid that they may not necessarily create an ambush, but are probably preparing for a retreat.

Now there are less than 20 people left in the 8 army of the Su family army. If you fight recklessly, you will only have a dead end.He didn't know the purpose of this new general, but judging from his ability to withdraw from Mengzhou city after burning Mo city without hesitation, he should be a decisive person and intends to preserve the Su family army.

Therefore, he speculated that his combat goal should be conservative.

The battle in Mocheng was just to hold him back.

Yan Xuning sneered, it's a pity, no matter what the other party's purpose is, he won't give him another chance!If the Su family's army is not destroyed, his timing to go south to attack Chang'an City will be delayed. He will never capture Chang'an before the reinforcements from Mu Beicheng arrive. In that case, his many years of planning will be in vain!
If you miss this opportunity and wait for the next one, you don't know when it will be!

The next day, Yan Xuning sent people to the mountains to continue the investigation, and on the other hand, he directly ordered 3 people to attack the city.

He wants to see if the other party intends to retreat without a fight, or fight him head-on to the death! !
