Call of the Deer

Chapter 502 Ming Xiu Plank Road, Darkness Chen Cang

(Dear book friends, Fengshang has resumed updating since today. I hope you can support me and finish writing this book with me!)

In the northeast of Suzhou, outside the city of Lingchuan, one hundred thousand Beiming soldiers were divided into three groups, approaching the city.

Wu Qi, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Underworld Army's Conquest to the South, sits in the central army, forms a rivalry with Huo Qubing and Xu Da, and stares at Lingchuan City.

A hundred miles north of Lingchuan City, there is an important pass called Feiyunjian; this Feiyunjian is a one-day trail that can directly pass through Qinzhou, Suzhou and Liuzhou, and its strategic location is very important.

At this moment, Feiyunjian is guarded by the general Man Chong, under the command of Pingzhou King, to ensure the northern gate of Suzhou.

In the city of Lingchuan, there was a strong evil spirit, and hundreds of thousands of people were dispersed. The two prefectures of Pingzhou and Qinzhou continued to send reinforcements.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, the important counselors under the King of East Qin, came together to make suggestions for this protracted war.

The king of Pingzhou, Chen Baxian, and the king of Suzhou, Liuyu, came to the front line to personally supervise the battle;
The main general of Lingchuan City is Tan Daoji, the only general under Liu Yu's command, who is said to be unparalleled in defense and fortified the Great Wall.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Liu Yu sat on the main seat, facing Chen Baxian, and below were Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and his counselor Gan Luo.

"You two soldiers, now that Chen Jun of the Northern Underworld Army is out, how should we defend ourselves?"

Endless melancholy flashed in Liu Yu's dark eyes, and he asked Fang Mou and Du Duan for advice.

"I would like to tell the King of Suzhou that the Beiming Army's aggressive attack this time must be aimed at taking down Suzhou and Pingzhou;
And Lingchuan City is the gateway to Suzhou, so there must be no loss. My lord has sent reinforcements, and I hope that the king can defend Lingchuan City for seven days. Then it's time for me to counterattack! "

Fang Xuanling stood up, cupped his hands and said to Liu Yu, but there was a trace of solemnity on his face.

When Liu Yu and Chen Baxian heard the words, their faces changed slightly, and they had already begun to think about the authenticity of Li Shimin's reinforcements in their hearts.

"It doesn't matter if it takes seven days. Although the Northern Dark Army is coming in menacingly, our army is in danger of a city. Just seven days, it's easy!"

For a moment, King Pingzhou nodded slightly when he heard the ugly face, and said quite proudly.

Not to mention that the city of Lingchuan is high and deep, but the [-] army in the city is enough for the Beiming army to drink a pot, and there are more than [-] troops in Feiyunjian.

"In this case, it depends on the two kings. It only takes seven days, and the outcome of the battle will be decided!"

Du Ruhui also nodded, his words were full of confidence, as if he had some trump card.

Outside Lingchuan City, inside the barracks of the Northern Underworld Army.

"Boss, the city of Lingchuan is high and deep, if you want to take it by force, I'm afraid you won't lose much!"

Di Qing sat in the second place from the lower left, with a tanned face with sharp edges and corners, and a serious expression, and said to Wu Qi.

"What Hanchen said is very true. Yuchun, I heard that you fought against Suzhou general Tan Daoji before. How is this man's ability? Why don't you tell me?"

Wu Qiqi nodded, then turned his head to look at Chang Yuchun, who was second from the bottom right.

"Boss, this Tan Daoji's ability to use troops is really good, but compared to a certain family, he is slightly weaker, but this person is especially good at defensive warfare. I am afraid it is not appropriate to attack Lingchuan City!"

Chang Yuchun stood up, his words were a little arrogant, but there was a trace of seriousness in his eyes, it seemed that things were not as simple as he said.

"Tiande, attack Lingchuan City, what do you think?"

Wu Qi was expressionless, lost in thought, and then looked at Xu Da who was the next first.

"Commander, our army should not forcefully attack Lingchuan City. It is said that there is a Feiyun Stream thirty miles north of Lingchuan City. If you pass through this stream, you will be able to drive straight in, hit Huanglong, and enter Suzhou!
Our army may wish to feign an attack first, and secretly send an army to capture Feiyunjian, and then wait for an opportunity to go deep into Suzhou and attack it wantonly. It will cause chaos for the Suzhou army. Cooperate inside and outside, and quickly capture the entire territory of Suzhou! "

Xu Da is worthy of being a top general, and he already has the princess' plan for Suzhou, and he talks about it with eloquence.

"Brother Xu, I'm afraid this plan won't work. Huo Mou has scouted the scouts to investigate Feiyunjian before. According to the scouts' reports, Feiyunjian has been closely guarded by the generals under the command of King Pingzhou;

So this Feiyunjian is as tough as Lingchuan City! "

Huo Qubing was originally a brave general who was good at long-distance raids, so he had this idea before. It's a pity that there are capable people in the enemy army, and they have already taken down Feiyunjian one step ahead of the Beiming army.

"Oh, Qubing, please tell us about the situation of the enemy army in Feiyunjian in detail, and see if there is an opportunity to take advantage of it!"

Wu Qi frowned when he heard this, and looked at Huo Qubing.

"There are 2 defenders in Feiyunjian, led by Man Chong himself. The defense is tight. There are heavy guards in the Jian. It's not easy to get chestnuts out of the fire!"

Feiyunjian was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and coupled with the fact that the number one general under the command of Pingzhou King was stationed, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven if he wanted to take it lightly!

"Lingchuan City is the gateway to Suzhou, and Feiyunjian is an important military location, so this commander not only wants to capture Lingchuan City, but also Feiyunjian!"

"Huo Qubing and Di Qing obey the order, and order you two to lead an army of [-] to Feiyunjian immediately. It must be very powerful."

"Xu Da, Yang Yanzhao, and Yang Yande listen to the order and order you three to lead an army of [-] to go south immediately and approach Pingzhou. You must reach Pingzhou within three days!"

Then Wu Qi left Huo Qubing and Xu Da behind, and began to arrange tactical strategies. Soon Xu Da and Huo Qubing led the army to leave the Northern Dark Army barracks.

On the second day, the stoves of the Northern Underworld Army suddenly decreased by as much as [-]%. Looking at the stoves, I am afraid that there are more than [-] enemy troops outside the city behind.

The third person, the stove of the Beiming Army was halved again, and this phenomenon was immediately noticed by Tan Daoji in Lingchuan City.

"Report to the lord, I will ask Tan Daoji to see you at the end!"

"Oh, it's Daoji. I don't know what to report. Could it be that the Northern Underworld Army has begun to attack the city?"

Seeing Tan Daoji coming to see him, Liu Yu asked with a smile on his dark eyes.

"Report to the lord, the general finds out that the stove outside the city was reduced by half yesterday, and half is reduced today. I'm afraid there is some conspiracy in it!"

Tan Daoji immediately told Liu Yu what he had discovered, and Liu Yu's face immediately changed when he heard this.

"You said that the stove of the Beiming army has been reduced by half yesterday? Is there a fraud in it?"

"Come here, immediately invite King Pingzhou, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Gan Luo to meet this king!"

Liu Yusheng was always suspicious, and when he saw that something was wrong, he immediately changed his color, and directly sent someone to invite Chen Baxian, Fang Mou Duan and others to come to discuss matters.

Soon, Chen Baxian and others arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, and after hearing Tan Daoji's report, their expressions changed.

"King of Suzhou, in Fang's opinion, this plan to reduce the number of stoves is Wu Qi's original intention to set up a suspicious formation to disturb our army's sight, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the city, catching our army by surprise; or sending troops to attack Feiyunjian. !"

Fang Xuanling thinks he is very intelligent, but he is not sure about this strategy to reduce the stove. After all, both Feiyunjian and Lingchuan City are very important, and one can open the gate of Suzhou.

"My lord, in my opinion, this Wu Qi is probably going to attack Feiyunjian. Although Feiyunjian is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are not many defenders."

Gan Luo also expressed his opinion. After all, Lingchuan City and Feiyunjian cannot be lost easily.

"For today's plan, how should our army respond?"

Liu Yu's face was extremely ugly, he looked around, and then asked.

"Report, according to the report from the scouts, Huo Qubing, the general of the Northern Underworld Army, is stationed outside Feiyunjian, intending to attack Feiyunjian!"

At this moment, a scout suddenly came to report, which made Liu Yu's expression change drastically.

"How many troops does Huo Qubing have?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the soldiers under Huo Qubing's command may not be less than [-] troops."

"Brother Jinu, according to my humble opinion, you might as well send an army to support Feiyunjian, after all, we must prevent problems before they happen!"

Pingzhou King Chen Ba was full of worry and favor at first, so he began to persuade him.

"Brother Chen's words are very true. If that's the case, then the king will send another [-] troops to Feiyunjian for support!"

"Report, report to Your Majesty, General Xu Da of the Northern Underworld Army led his army to the south, and seems to be heading for Pingzhou!"

At this moment, a scout came to report in a hurry, and now Chen Baxian was dumbfounded, and hurriedly asked.

"What? You said that Xu Da led his army to the south and went straight to Pingzhou? How is this possible?"

"Brother Jinu, this time the king is out with all his strength, but my defense in Pingzhou is very empty. Now that Xu Da suddenly goes south, Pingzhou is in danger. What should I do? No, I have to send my troops back. aid!"

Rao Chen Baxian had always seen Mount Tai sitting firmly, but now seeing Xu Da rushing to Pingzhou, it is difficult to maintain the state of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him without changing his face.

"Brother Chen, this must be Wu Qi's trick, you must not be fooled, he just wants to divide the defenders of Lingchuan City."

Liu Yu knew very well in his heart at this time that this was Wu Qi's trick, but he was helpless.

"Hey, brother Jinu, if it's not a trick, and the army of the Northern Darkness attacks east and west, and the fake show is real, then wouldn't our Pingzhou be in danger?"

At this time, how could Chen Baxian listen to Liu Yu's "faithful advice"?It's already like returning home.

"Hey, since that's the case, Brother Chen will send his troops back to help!"

At this point, Liu Yu can only let Chen Ba go and stay.

Soon, Chen Baxian led an army of [-] out of the city, and went south by way;

And Liu Yu once again sent [-] troops to Feiyunjian, leaving only [-] troops in Lingchuan City.

As for the mobilization of the defenders of Lingchuan City, Wu Qi couldn't hide it from Wu Qi, and Wu Qi got the news very quickly.

"Everyone, Chen Baxian is still caught in a certain scheme, and has already led his army south to support Pingzhou, so tonight at midnight, Xingye will attack!"

In the Beiming Army's tent, Wu Qi said with joy when he saw that his scheme had succeeded.

"The last general takes orders!"

When Chang Yuchun, Yuwen Chengdu, and Cheng Yaojin heard the words, their complexions froze, and there was eager joy in their eyes.

At the same time, the East Qin King also sent his generals Li Guangbi and Nan Qiyun to lead an army of [-] to support Suzhou!

"Guang Bi, this time Wu Qi's army is coming very aggressively. I hope the king of Suzhou can use his troops carefully and insist on our army's arrival, otherwise Suzhou will be in danger!"

Nan Qiyun rode on a war horse and marched side by side with Li Guangbi, with a worried expression on his face.

"Haha, it's okay, Liu Yu's general Tan Daoji is good at defensive battles, and he can definitely defend in just seven days!"

Li Guangbi knew Tan Daoji better than Nan Qiyun, so he casually chuckled and didn't care.

Immediately, an army of [-] marched towards Suzhou mightily. (to be continued!)
