The cicadas chirp in the summer night and the leaves move in the wind, which is quiet and peaceful, but in the county mansion of Liyang City, the harmonious singing of harp and harp can be heard for a long time.
Ning Fan put on a coat, strode out of the room, took a deep breath, and had a gleam in his eyes.
Tomorrow is the last day, and what should come should come.
"Report——"
"What's the matter?"
Ning Fan strode out and saw a figure hurriedly walking in: "General, Yizhou City has reported that a large force of powerful cavalry has attacked the city gate. Please send troops to help immediately!"
"What!"
Ning Fan looked shocked and said quickly: "Where are the generals?"
"Already waiting in the waiting hall."
"lead the way!"
All the way to the county hall, more than ten figures standing on both sides bowed respectfully when they saw Ning Fan.
"See General!"
"No gift!"
Ning Fan looked at the leading general and said in a deep voice: "Xu Kuang, what is the situation in Yizhou City? Is the city destroyed?"
"Back to the general, the current situation is unknown. The soldier who just came to report the news has fainted from exhaustion."
"How many troops do they have?"
"According to the reporter, there are at least ten thousand riders."
"What!"
Ning Fan's face was replaced by a look of shock, and he said with some confusion: "Now, Commander Yun leads hundreds of thousands of troops to press across the south bank of the Li River, and the main force of Li River has already retreated to the north bank. Where did these cavalrymen appear from? Coming?"
"You don't know the end?"
"Xu Kuang, He Zhuang, you two immediately lead 30,000 elites to rush to Yizhou City to support Yizhou City. There is a full supply of our army's equipment in Yizhou City, so there is no room for loss."
"promise!"
The two of them respectfully performed a military salute and strode out of the hall. Ning Fan's expression gradually became calmer. These two are the most capable assistants under Chen Ding. Now that they are transferred out, this Liyang He controlled half of the city.
If the prediction is good, there should be news from Xixiongtu.
…
"Black Ice Platform, 72 piles in northern Li, see you sir!"
"No gift!"
The black man in front of him is the hidden stake in the northern part of Li River, number 72, and now the news of Li River is coming.
With Ning Fan's reminder, Xi Xiongtu immediately responded. First, he deployed heavy troops in the rear army to ambush Da Yan's cavalry who came to attack. He used his elite to resist Da Yan's offensive frontally and engulfed Da Yan's flank strength.
The third layout directly caused Da Yan to suffer heavy losses, losing troops and generals, which can be called a great victory.
However, Ning Fan's plan has obviously not been implemented yet. It is not impossible to completely control Liyang City in one day, given the current situation.
"Send a message to Lin Zhengxiang and ask him to spread the news of Liyang City's recovery to Dali Capital City."
"promise!"
"Enable the list of Yan names. I want to know before dawn how many of our people there are in Liyang City and what positions they have."
"Sir, Master Lin has already ordered his subordinates to bring it."
"oh?"
There was a stern look in Ning Fan's eyes. The branches and organizational structure of Black Ice Platform are extremely close. Lin Zhengxiang is the general person in charge of Black Ice Platform in Li and belongs to the Li brand. Now he wants to activate the company hidden in Da Yan. power.
Hei Bingtai needs to contact the person in charge of Yan Brand, but now, Lin Zhengxiang can actually directly come up with the list of Yan Brand?
What exactly is the problem?
"Sir, Master Lin asked his subordinates to inform him that before you set off, No. 1 has ordered him to connect with Yan Zihao for intelligence interconnection."
"I see!"
Ning Fan's tense expression gradually became calmer. After taking the list, he quickly glanced at it and threw it on top of the candle, turning it into ashes.
"Go down and tell Lin Zhengxiang that he is being watched over at Phoenix Tower."
"Now that we have people in the Phoenix Tower, the information is transmitted to me through the Phoenix Tower, which is more secure."
"yes!"
…
Outside Yizhou City.
Gu Yun personally led 30,000 cavalry to ambush on both sides of the mountains and forests. Zhang Liao was also wearing armor and looking at the ancient road in the distance.
"tread!"
"tread!"
As hurried footsteps sounded, Zhang Liao and Gu Yun looked at each other, and their eyes became excited.
Now that Da Yan's main force and cavalry have been transferred to the front, most of the rear are infantry and standing troops, and their combat strength is far inferior to that of the main force. Therefore, Gu Yun is confident that he can capture Da Yan's 30,000 troops.
"coming."
"Are you ready with enough bows and arrows?"
"General, don't worry. Whether it's bows and arrows or rolling stones and wood, the brothers have been busy for a long time, and they are all ready, enough for these Yan bastards to drink a pot."
"Haha, I would also like to thank Yan Jun for leaving so many weapons and armor in Yizhou City."
"Archers, shoot!"
Following Gu Yun's order, 30,000 cavalrymen suddenly fired arrows together, forming a rain of arrows, pouring overwhelmingly towards the Yan army rushing to support Yizhou City. Immediately afterwards, the horses neighed, and Zhang Liao and Gu The clouds came out and patted the horses.
"Kill!"
Seeing a group of cavalry suddenly emerge from the jungle, Xu Kuang and He Zhuang both had expressions of concentration on their faces, and said in a deep voice: "Get ready to defend against the enemy!"
"ah!"
"puff……"
"General, be careful..."
An arrow accurately shot into He Zhuang's neck. The latter fell straight off his horse. Xu Kuang looked shocked. Now that his side was in chaos, it was difficult to convey the order. But what should he do in the face of these countless cavalry? Resist?
"withdraw!"
"Escape to the mountains and forests on both sides."
"Quickly retreat!"
Xu Kuang raised the spear in his hand and shouted fiercely. He also turned his horse's head in a hurry, but Dali's cavalry had already reached the front of the formation. Facing the chaos of Dayan's infantry, it was undoubtedly a dimensionality reduction attack.
The wave of rolling stones and rain of arrows just now had already shattered the morale of Yan's army. Naturally, the ambush ended in a perfect situation.
"Soldiers, kill!"
"Don't let anyone go!"
"Revenge for my dead people in Dali!"
Gu Yun's eyes were red, and he saw Xu Kuang riding a tall horse in the crowd at a glance, and he jumped directly on the horse. Chai Chong, the vanguard general, also raised his weapon and followed Gu Yun's pace.
…
The sky is bright.
Ning Fan sat in the courtyard all night. He slowly raised his eyes until the small wooden board behind the rockery in the courtyard was pushed open and a figure jumped out.
"Lord, all the 30,000 Yan troops who left the city have been surrounded and annihilated."
"Um!"
"How's the battle damage?"
"More than three thousand riders were killed or injured."
"knew."
Zhang Liao stood aside quietly, while Ning Fan was lost in thought. Although Da Yan lost 30,000 soldiers and horses in the encirclement and reinforcements, it was nothing more than a drop in the bucket for the 300,000 troops in Liyang City.
However, Ning Fan's purpose was not to deplete the troops in Liyang City. After all, it would take half a day to kill the 300,000 people even if they stood still and were killed by Gu Yun's 30,000 cavalry.
His purpose was to get rid of Xu Kuang and He Zhuang and undermine the military morale of Yan Jun. Naturally, his purpose was achieved.
"General, urgent report from outside the city..."
…
