Chapter 1484: Trump card unit _1
Xu Erlang pointed at the map and said, ”
“Songshan County is one of yang bu’s second line of defense. If they can protect it, then the grain in Qingzhou can be transported to the South.
“With Songshan County as the center, the entire Northwest can be the back of our Army, supporting our fight against the Yunzhou rebel army.”
Miao Youfang looked over. On the map, Xu Erlang used a charcoal pencil to draw out the city walls occupied by the Yunzhou Army. Songshan County ” was like a nail, embedded in the Northwest of the rebel Army’s line of advancement.
“If you draw it like this, I’ll understand the importance of Songshan. “I was still wondering why administrator yang placed so much importance on such a small and broken County, even though you often say that it’s an important stronghold of the defense line.”
“But I don’t know what’s important, hero Miao. Isn’t it clear at a glance?”
Miao Youfang nodded as he watched.
“As expected of second lang. You are a scholar from the Yun Lu Academy. This great swordsman is greatly comforted.”
“Read more books when you have time to improve your rhetorics.” Xu Erlang replied with a calm expression.
He was quite experienced in dealing with boorish martial artists.
He would not get angry easily.
Xu Erlang continued, ”
unless the Yunzhou rebel army is completely defeated at Dongling and Wan County, and has no choice but to send more troops into the battlefield, Zhuo Haoran will not withdraw his troops. He will wait for reinforcements.
Dongling, Wan County, and Songshan County formed the second line of defense.
“Then what should we do?” Miao Youfang asked.
“The grain in the city and Zi Zhong who is guarding the city are still sufficient, so naturally they will not come out and wait for yang bu’s reinforcements.” Xu niannian muttered, ”
provided that the battles in Dongling and Wan County are not too intense.
“What if it’s very tragic?” Miao Youfang asked.
“Then be prepared to fight a protracted war without any help.” Xu niannian sighed.
Dongling and Wanjun were more important than Songshan County.
Fortunately, before he left, sun Xuanji had given him a large number of heavy firearms, including cannons, ballistae, ballistae, and handguns. These were all useful for defending a city.
As for kerosene, rolling wood, and other supplies, Songshan County was rich and had a huge reserve.
The DA Feng Army had the confidence to fight a protracted war.
As he spoke, he summoned a Centurion and ordered, ”
send Scouts out from the west side of the city. Bring pickaxes and shovels and sneaked along the pine River. We’ll wait for the enemy’s supply route.
When the centurion left with his orders, Miao Youfang took the initiative to analyze, ”
“You want to cut off the enemy’s provisions before the reinforcements arrive?”
A few days ago, he had led the cavalry to charge into the camp and killed indiscriminately, burning the rebel Army’s grain. Even if the fire was finally extinguished, the remaining grain would not last for a few days.
Xu niannian chuckled and said, ”
“No, I’m going to destroy the main road and delay the enemy’s reinforcements. Then, I’ll anger Zhuo Haoran and force him to attack the city. This way, we might be able to take down Zhuo Haoran’s Army before the rebel Army’s reinforcements arrive.”
Marching to war was inevitably accompanied by the transportation of grain and military equipment, and these things were dependent on carriages.
The normal progress of the vehicle depended on the road.
A route filled with holes would greatly slow down the speed of the reinforcements.
brother Miao, you’ve just gone through a tough battle. Go and eat some meat. You still have to keep watch at night.
Xu niannian rubbed his swollen temples and exhaled. “I’m also going to rest for a while.”
He had not slept for a day and a night.
After sending Miao Youfang away, Xu Erlang fell asleep in his light armor. The hard and disgusting equipment did not hinder him at all, and he fell asleep very quickly.
This was due to the experience of going up north to help the demon barbarians. At that time, the Allied forces of Da Feng and the demon barbarians were scattered, and the remaining forces were scattered everywhere, facing danger at any time.
As a result, he had cultivated a divine technique that allowed him to fall asleep quickly even while wearing armor.
“Dong Dong Dong …”
The dense and heavy sound of the drum woke Xu Erlang up. He opened his eyes abruptly and jumped up from the simple bed. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the water clock by the bed. The time was 5:45.
The night before dawn.
He ran out of the Barbican with his standard military knife. The sky was dark, and the torches on the city wall burned brightly in the cold night.
Miao Youfang, who was rushing in the direction of the Barbican, met eyes with Xu Erlang and grinned.
“That guy is a madman. He actually attacked the city. Isn’t this just what we want? we don’t even need to try to goad him.”
As Xu Erlang walked toward the battlements, he said with a frown, ”
“Zhuo Haoran is hot-tempered and impulsive, so he’s easily goaded into action. However, we haven’t goaded him into action yet, and he’s no ordinary person. He should know that the remaining forces are not enough to attack the city.
“There’s something strange about this.”
“What’s so strange about it?” asked Miao Youfang.
I’m not a supervisor, how would I know … Xu Xinian came to the battlements and looked into the distance cautiously. With the help of the flames from the cannons fired from the top of the city wall, he saw a dense Army approaching the city.
“Is he trying to destroy both Jade and common stone?”
Xu Erlang frowned.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, he suddenly pounced to the left. A Cannonball whizzed and exploded at his hiding spot. The flames swept up the air waves and gravel, spraying in all directions.
Miao Youfang’s Qi surged and blocked the hot air flow, allowing Xu Erlang to escape the fate of being seriously injured.
“F * ck his mother!”
Xu Erlang crawled up with cold sweat all over his body. He bent his waist and ran towards the horse track while shouting, ”
“The catapults are firing oil for illumination.
