Chapter 982 Retreating to Advance, Borrowing a Knife to Kill

Chapter 99 Retreating to advance, borrowing a knife to kill

In response to the situation in central Sichuan, Fang Jie issued seven troop deployment orders in a row, but all of them seemed to have nothing to do with the reinforcement of the Emei faction. The Ministry transferred out of Chengdu City.

"Order: Ningbo City Xinxin's Department retreats to Xiangyang City, fully presides over the defense missions of Xiangyang City and its four gate market transfer points! Another: temporarily recruit a team of 10 people to enter the regular regiment to assist Xinxin in stationing Xiangyang City !"

"Order: The 20 disciples who originally guarded the four-gate market in Xiangyang City, led by Wang Qing, will go to Chongqing City to garrison, and the defense of Ningbo City and its 30 defenders will be temporarily handed over to the Sun Commander."

"Order: The Jiangnan Jinhua Town Office dispatched three teams of 10 people to Chongqing City to join the Wangqing Office Department. After the Ministry arrives in Chongqing City, Wangqing will take full command of it!"

"Order: I want to exit the game and go to Chongqing City to assist Wangqing in defending the city. The Wenzhou City Division is temporarily handed over to Xiao Yao and Sun Commander!"

"Order: The Red Face Swordsmanship Special Brigade under the jurisdiction of Quan Geng, the Dust Swordsmanship Special Brigade under the Yuanzi's jurisdiction, the Dugu Nine Swords Special Brigade under the jurisdiction of Ye Shunlong, the Lingjiu Palace Swordsmanship Special Brigade under the jurisdiction of Han Qinglu, and the elites under the jurisdiction of Luo Manzi The special brigade is stationed in Chongqing City!"

"Order: Among the 30 disciples of the Emei Sect who were originally reinforced, 20 people will be withdrawn from Chengdu City to Chongqing City, and join the Wangqing Sect!"

"Order: Destroy everything and bring the killer group of Wangqing Pavilion lore to Shuzhong to do it cheaply!"

After this series of dizzying troop orders were issued, the senior officials of the Wangqing Pavilion naturally had doubts in their hearts, but no matter how doubtful they were, since the order was issued by the leader Fang Jie himself, everyone unconditionally chose to resolutely carry out his order After all, in the eyes of everyone, Fang Jie is a person who can perform miracles. No matter how unreasonable his order may seem, everyone firmly believes that it is reasonable, and they can fully accept it without looking for any reason.

On the bright side, everyone can see that Xinxin's return to defend Xiangyang City is only out of safety considerations for Wangqing Pavilion headquarters, while Fang Jie's other troop movements revolve around Chongqing City. Can't help wondering, the Emei sent to Wangqing Pavilion for help, not to increase troops in Chongqing, but to increase troops in Chengdu City and the central Sichuan area, but Fang Jie turned a blind eye and sent 80 million troops to Chongqing City behind Chengdu City. This is like a reinforcement without direct reinforcement, which is somewhat unfinished.

Of course, some smart people have analyzed that from a strategic point of view, Chongqing City is an important strategic city between Chengdu and Xiangyang, and an important hub connecting Sichuan and Huguang. Once Chongqing City is occupied by hostile forces, then Chengdu City will be completely destroyed. It has become an isolated city, and it will be difficult for Wangqing Pavilion and other factions in the Central Plains to reinforce the central Sichuan area. Therefore, although Fang Jie's move does not seem to directly help the Emei faction, it also protects the other The rear is safe. When the time comes, Wangqing Pavilion can reinforce Shuzhong when it enters, and it can return to the Central Plains when it retreats. There is a huge room for maneuver.

However, ordinary people may not be able to see Fang Jie's deeper intentions. Only the leaders of various ministries who have received the text messages sent by Fang Jie privately can really understand why Fang Jie made such arrangements, especially the Emei faction. Lin, was almost completely aware of Fang Jie's strategic intentions, and because of this, Fang Jie admired him immensely.

In a nutshell, Fang Jie's intention is to deter the hostile forces in central Sichuan to a certain extent by sending troops to defend Chongqing City. But it will not directly scare away the hostile forces, so that the hostile forces will be bold enough to operate within the scope of central Shu.

The trickiness of this can actually be analyzed simply.

If the Wangqing Pavilion directly increases its troops in Chengdu City, then there are only two changes in the situation. One is that out of consideration for their own interests, the foreign forces of all parties and their sects jump over the wall and fight to the death with the Emei faction and the Wangqing Pavilion that sent reinforcements. , In this way, everyone may end up with a lose-lose result, and no one can gain more benefits in the national war.

The other is that the foreign forces and their sects swallowed their anger, avoided their edge, bypassed the central Sichuan area and chose other routes to enter the Central Plains.

However, the possibility of such a change is extremely small, because the Western Regions have no choice but to enter the central Shu, and if the Dali Kingdom chooses the eastward route, it will encounter extremely strong defenses too early. The Rattan Armored Southern Barbarian Kingdom also won't get any benefits, and may even suffer big losses from the special operations methods of Yaowang Valley and Wanshou Villa. As for Mongolia, as I said before, Long Xiaotian, who has already made a strategic decision It is no longer possible to temporarily change the course.

Therefore, Wangqing Pavilion's direct reinforcement of Chengdu City is actually tantamount to driving itself and the hostile forces to a dead end. At that time, the two sides will definitely fight to the death. As a result, it has a very serious impact on the development of Wangqing Pavilion itself.

And obviously, if Wangqing Pavilion is not so reckless and just sends troops to guard Chongqing City to the east of Chengdu, Fang Jie and Wangqing Pavilion are quite afraid of decadent Xueshao, Long Xiaotian and others, they will never dare to attack at will I believe that the Duan family of Dali also has this kind of fear. Otherwise, the Dali Kingdom of Xixia will not only go north to attack the middle of Shu and dare not venture into the Central Plains. Then, in the next period of time, the middle of Shu The region became the stage where the three forces of Xixia, Western Regions, and Mongolia competed.

Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned forces of the three countries, there are also the fourth party forces of the Central Dynasty belonging to the Emei Sect and the Qingcheng Sect. However, Fang Jie privately sent a text message to Feng Lin, no matter how the other three parties perform on stage, let them Just watch the show on the sidelines, and just keep the three-acre land in Chengdu City and its nearby Mount Qingcheng and Mount Emei. Anyway, as long as Feng Lin can maintain restraint, hide in the area of ​​Chengdu City and unite with the Qingcheng faction and the remaining [-] Wangqing The disciples of the pavilion are strictly on guard, the enemy will definitely have nothing to do with her for a while.

Fang Jie even pointed out that as long as Feng Lin does not go out of the city and does not take the initiative to provoke the other three forces, then the three forces will definitely not take the initiative to follow Feng Lin and her Emei faction. Feng Lin asked the reason At the time, Fang Jie only made a simple analogy: "Four people are fighting each other, and one of them is the weakest person who can only parry and who is temporarily without any threat, surrounded by the other three. Should people fight each other and eliminate the other two threatening enemies first, or should they destroy the non-threatening enemy in the middle first at the expense of others?"

Fang Jie did not give the answer to this question, but not to mention the clever Feng Lin, even ordinary people can easily come up with the answer to this question - of course, first destroy the other two threatening enemies, and then Then slowly clean up the weak enemy in the middle!

Obviously, the Emei faction is the poor guy surrounded in the middle, and any of the other three forces will first think about how to drive the other two forces out of Sichuan, and then turn around to deal with the Emei faction after the overall situation is settled. As a result, the Emei faction, the land snakes entrenched in the central Sichuan area, has nothing to do with themselves. At least for a period of time, before the three forces have decided the winner or loser, the Emei faction can sit back and watch the show with peace of mind.

And this is the fundamental reason why Fang Jie didn't directly send troops to Chengdu City, but retreated and stationed in Chongqing City!
The so-called step back, Fang Jie only took this step back, and the three forces far to the west have a certain space, and in order to compete for this limited space, they have to fight with each other to see who has a harder fist, and wait for them After a fight that hurt both sides, Wangqing Pavilion united with Emei Sect, Qingcheng Sect, Ancient Tomb Sect, Quanzhen Sect, and even brought in Yaowanggu from Nanman Kingdom, and went to the central Sichuan area to clean up the mess!

Presumably at that time, the leaders of the sects belonging to the three forces will definitely beat their chests and regret it, but that is all for later. At least for now, the leaders and senior officials of the sects belonging to the three forces will not see Fang Jie for a while. Even when they learned that Wangqing Pavilion only sent troops to Chongqing City and did not reinforce Chengdu City, the leaders were still secretly thankful in their hearts, hoping to avoid a direct conflict with Wangqing Pavilion.

However, in Feng Lin's view, there must be a prerequisite for Fang Jie's plan to kill with a knife, that is-the Mongolian forces to which Long Xiaotian belongs will invade the central Shu area!
Obviously, if there are only two power states fighting each other in the central Shu area, it will be difficult to form a check and balance situation. The two parties may even reach some kind of cooperation agreement to jointly attack Chengdu City. Therefore, only if the Mongolian powers also participate, this plan can work as expected However, Feng Lin never thought that the Mongolian forces would look through the Qinling Mountains and go south to attack the central Shu area. No matter how you look at it, the Mongolian country, which uses rangers as its main force, gave up its advantages in arms and ran across mountains and rivers to Shu. There is really no reason to come from the central region.

In fact, not only Feng Lin had such doubts, but Fang Jie who made the plan also felt that what Long Xiaotian did was really illogical. If he was Long Xiaotian, he would definitely take the northward route and capture Yinchuan. Xu Tu Taiyuan finally firmly controlled the north of the Yellow River in his own hands. However, Fang Jie got the exact news from the poisonous lady. After the arrangement, if it wasn't for this, Fang Jie would never have believed that Long Xiaotian would make such an unimaginable decision.

Only the two of them know about the "deal" between Fang Jie and the poisonous lady. He believes that the poisonous lady, who has a deep hatred for Long Xiaotian, will definitely not lie about the military situation in this matter, so although he finds it incredible, he still firmly believes that the poisonous lady The lady's information will not be wrong.

Therefore, this information can only be enjoyed by him alone. He didn't tell Feng Lin, but just ordered the other party to act according to his own arrangements. In case of any accidents, the army of Wangqing Pavilion will be stationed in Chongqing City to make a show. It is also possible to temporarily change the plan and quickly reinforce Chengdu City. At the very least, it can ensure that Mount Emei, the base of the Emei faction, will not be captured by the enemy.

After receiving this promise, although Feng Lin still had doubts in her heart, out of Fang Jie's complete trust, she did not raise any objections. Instead, according to Fang Jie's arrangement, she began to shrink the defense line in the central Shu area and rearranged The strength of the army is to deploy heavy troops to defend Qingcheng Mountain, Emei Mountain and Chengdu City, and simply give up other areas. Any Western Regions and Dali Kingdoms that have broken into the territory have their own territories in the central Shu area.

At the beginning, the Western Regions and Dali were able to enclose their respective territories with relative restraint, but as they kept enclosing each other, some contradictions and conflicts inevitably occurred between the two sides.

In particular, the Western Regions Kingdom, which has two sects joining forces, naturally has a greater appetite than Dali Kingdom, and the Xuedaomen and Dalun Temple are only temporarily cooperating because they are in the same camp, and they are still wary of each other in private. Each of them always thought about how to make good use of the troops of the Western Regions to seek their own interests. Therefore, in the process of enclosing the land, the two factions led the Western Regions to separate the land. The headquarters of the Dalun Temple, which was developing in the southeast direction, inevitably had a conflict of interest with the Dali Kingdom of Xixia.

Therefore, in this enclosure movement, Dalun Temple first confronted the Dali Duan family. While the armies of the two factions were fighting on the frontal battlefield, the players of the two factions dispersed in units of hundreds of people. A protracted guerrilla war has been waged in the wild suburbs!
In the early stage of this guerrilla war, Dalun Temple, who was at a disadvantage in physical skills and numbers, suffered a lot. However, on the NPC battlefield, a series of troops from the Western Regions with various tantric martial arts will be defeated. The NPC soldiers of the Xixia Kingdom returned home in a big defeat, and finally saved a little loss and face for Dalun Temple.

The troops of the Western Regions are all Tantric monks and soldiers. The only difference lies in the martial arts and weapons they use. The martial arts skills mastered by these Tantric monks and soldiers are all derived from Dalun Temple and Xuedaomen. It is impossible to have the top martial arts of sects such as Dragon Elephant Wisdom Kung Fu, at most it is the sun moon wheel monk soldier holding a pair of copper wheels who has mastered the advanced martial arts of the Dalun Temple, the sun moon wheel method.

In terms of other weapons, there are the Red Lotus Saber Monk who has mastered the intermediate martial arts Red Lotus Sword Technique, the Ming King Sword Monk who uses the Immovable King Ming Sword, and the Demon Subduing Monk who uses the Vajra Subduing Demon Pestle with extremely powerful attack power. In terms of unarmed skills, Tantric boxers mainly focus on Tantric Mahamudra.

The arms of Dali Kingdom are basically a hodgepodge of various arms, such as spearmen, scimitar guards, rangers, horse archers, archers, swordsmen, swordsmen, ax throwers, etc., etc., it stands to reason , as long as so many arms are properly deployed on the battlefield, they should be able to take advantage of the advantages of each other to gain the initiative, or simply not deploying to disrupt the battle, it may also make the opponent at a loss.

But in fact, due to the fact that the Dali Kingdom has too many types of troops, and they are facing the monks and soldiers of the Western Regions with special martial arts, their actual overall combat capabilities cannot be fully utilized. Only the NPC halls of the Xixia Yipintang have one or two The middle-level special martial arts unit can gain a certain advantage in the fight with the monks and soldiers of the Western Regions, but the Xixia Yipintang is like the artillery of the Western Army. It is a special unit and its number is very limited.

Therefore, it is conceivable that almost everyone has an elementary or intermediate level of Tantric martial arts soldiers from the Western Regions, how easy it will be to deal with ordinary soldiers. This is also the main reason why the soldiers of the Dali Kingdom lost to the soldiers of the Western Regions. With the passage of time, after the Dali Duan Clan is able to recruit troops in the middle of Shu, the unfavorable situation of the NPC battles will change, because at that time the Dali Duan Clan will definitely spend a lot of money to get all the Xixia first-rank people to deal with Monk soldiers of the Western Regions.

Just as the enclosure movement in central Shu was in full swing, the Xingxiu faction and the Mongolian forces it belonged to also launched operations according to Long Xiaotian's plan. A large number of Xingxiu faction masters disguised themselves and sneaked into Guangyuan and Hanzhong towns. , a large number of Mongolian cavalry secretly crossed Chencang, starting from Ya'an Town, and quickly marched along the two sides of the Qinling Mountains to the two towns where the masters of the Xingxiu School settled. Except for Long Xiaotian and those direct descendants of the Xingxiu faction, no one knew about it.

A few days later, a moderate battle broke out in Guangyuan Town. The cause was not that the masters of the Xingxiu faction who sneaked into the city wanted to seize Guangyuan Town in advance, but that an enclosure team from the Blood Knife Sect had arrived here. After entering the city, a bloody clean-up was carried out on all the players in the city who were not from the Western Regions. As a result, the clean-up was carried out by the masters of the Xingxiu faction, and the two sides fought directly without saying a word.

The situation of a large number of hostile players in Guangyuan Town was quickly reported to the head of the sect by the personnel of both sides. Needless to say, the first reaction of Decadent Blood was surprise, followed by anger, and felt that the hands of the Xingxiu faction The stretch is too long, and they dared to attack Lanzhou City on a large scale, and at the same time send people to secretly control Guangyuan Town in Sichuan. If it wasn't for the fact that the team under the Xuedaomen's enclosure happened to encounter the opponent, I'm afraid everyone would still be killed by the dragon at this moment. Xiaotian was kept in the dark.

In view of this, he didn't know that the siege of Lanzhou City was just a smoke bomb released by Long Xiaotian. He immediately ordered all the ministries in the northern Shu area to gather in Guangyuan Town immediately, and asked the ministries to strengthen the defense and surveillance of that area. In order to prevent the Mongolian forces on the other side of the Qinling Mountains from sneaking into Sichuan.

At the same time, Long Xiaotian was also making his own arrangements.

Since the secret control of Guangyuan Town, the plan to wait for the arrival of large troops and then cooperate with the outside has been aborted, Long Xiaotian felt that there was no need to continue hiding, and immediately ordered the first batch of hundreds of people who had already sneaked into the mountain area on the south side of the Qinling Mountains. The disciples of the Wanxingxu sect came out of the mountain and outflanked the Xuedaomen's troops attacking Guangyuan Town from the rear. After annihilating the opponent, they immediately entered the city to rest and garrison, ready to deal with the next battle at any time.

Long Xiaotian had only one request for this group of defenders - defend the city at all costs, wait for the arrival of the Mongolian army, accumulate time for occupying the city by the way, and obtain the conditions for clearing troops as soon as possible!
