Chapter 257
Tang Long and Ma Su had no idea that the first support army of the Chu Empire, led by General Ye Yuanhong of the Chu Army, had arrived at Longhu Mountain, and their whereabouts had been exposed early.
"Report!"
"General Ye, we have found out that the man who led an army of 100,000 people to ambush on Longhu Mountain is Tang Long, the great prince of the Tang Dynasty!" The spy quickly found out the news.
When Ye Yuanhong heard this, he laughed wildly and said: "Tang Long? It's this stupid donkey again! Three years ago, Tang Long led the Tang Dynasty's 500,000 soldiers to be killed by our great Chu. Even the city of Jingzhou was lost. In the hands of my great Chu, I didn’t expect that the Tang Dynasty would dare to use this stupid donkey Tang Long this time. God helps my great Chu!”
Ye Yuanhong, the second son of the great general of Da Chu, the brother of Ye Yuanba, the top general of Da Chu, and a first-class official.
Three years ago, his younger brother Ye Yuanba led an army of 300,000 to defeat the Tang Dynasty's army of 500,000 and captured Jingzhou City. Ye Yuanhong knew clearly that the commander of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty was Tang Long.
What Ye Yuanhong never dreamed of was that Tang Long, a stupid ass, would show up again during the war between the two countries.
"General Ye, what should we do next? Are we going to attack the mountain by force?" asked a military general.
Ye Yuanhong waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Send my military order to surround Longhu Mountain with the army and cut off the food, grass and water sources of Tang Long's army. When Tang Long is desperate, he will definitely capture it from the mountain. At that time, the archers will prepare , directly shoot these 100,000 troops at the target!"
"Also, draw out 50,000 troops to set up ambushes around. If the Tang army in Yangzhou City comes to reinforce, they will be caught off guard immediately! Send a cavalry to Jingzhou City and tell Yuanba to always be on guard against the Yangzhou City defenders. If there is any If there is any movement, we will attack from the front and back and destroy all the Tang army in one go!"

Ye Yuanhong is worthy of being a top warrior. He is brave and resourceful. With just one glance, he saw the shortcomings of Tang Long's garrison at Longhu Mountain.
The two hundred thousand troops were too conspicuous. When Ye Yuanhong led the army to surround Longhu Mountain, Tang Long also got the news in time.
"Oh my God! There are so many people in the first wave of Da Chu reinforcements? Sir, Da Chu seems to have surrounded us. What should we do?" Tang Long stared at the densely packed Da Chu army at the foot of Longhu Mountain. tingling.
At present, he only has an army of 100,000 people. According to Tang Long's experience, Dachu's army has at least 200,000 people. If the opponent is besieged for a long time without attacking, it will be greatly detrimental to him.
When Ma Su, a dog-headed military advisor, heard this, he stepped forward and sneered with narrowed eyes: "Your Highness, a mere one or two hundred thousand Chu troops are nothing to be afraid of. The reason why the Chu troops besieged and refused to attack was simply to cut off water and food. This is what we want. When our 100,000-strong army becomes hungry, our combat effectiveness will be greatly improved!"
"At that point, my army of 100,000 will descend from the sky like divine soldiers, all of them brave and good at fighting. The Chu army at the foot of the mountain will be wiped out with a snap of my finger!"
"Sir, you are brilliant, you are brilliant!" After hearing this, Tang Long gradually calmed down as if he had taken a reassurance.
Even when Tang Long looked at the Chu troops at the foot of the mountain, his eyes were full of contempt, as if he was really driven into a panic. He led one hundred thousand soldiers to rush down, but the two hundred thousand Chu troops in front of him were not enough for him to destroy.
"Your Highness, the troops and horses have been reorganized and are ready to send reinforcements to Longhu Mountain at any time!"
At the same time, Meng Tian immediately organized 25,000 golden fire cavalry and came to Tang Yu to report.
Tang Yu asked in a deep voice: "General Meng, has the Chu army launched an attack on Longhu Mountain?"
"According to the report from the spies, this is the first wave of Chu troops. There seems to be 200,000 troops, and the Chu troops are surrounding but not attacking. It seems that they are trying to cut off the eldest prince's food, grass and water sources!" Meng Tian said truthfully.
"It's bad!"
The corner of Tang Yu's mouth twitched fiercely. Thinking about it with his toes, Tang Long must have followed Ma Su's suggestion.
Immediately, Tang Yu continued to ask: "Who is leading the Chu army? He can choose to encircle instead of attack at the first time. This person is by no means simple!"
