"We can first enter Mengguan City and disintegrate it from the inside. Although there are more than 60 powerful men in the Mengguan City, most of them are level one, level two, and level three. There are only a dozen of the above, and we can deal with them one by one," Huang Long said.
"This city is huge. We should follow the Jinlong brothers' idea and surround it first and attack the city gates on all sides to test the combat effectiveness of Meng Guanbang's defending team, and then deal with it in a targeted manner according to the situation. Now, we still have to be cautious. Some, don’t occupy Mengguan City too quickly and expose your strength." Huang Ling said.
"I have an idea. We can openly unite with Mang Guan Bang and ask Mang Guan Bang's new army to attack from the northwest of Meng Guan State. As long as the Xiong Mang brothers attack from the northwest of Meng Guan State, the pressure from Meng Guan State will be reduced. will increase immediately, and it is possible to surrender in accordance with the requirements of the Jinlong brothers." Jinshan said.
"Xiong Mang's place is indeed the last straw to crush Meng Guan State, but we can't use it yet. Now, Meng Guan State and Mang Guan State are subordinate states of Tianguan Divine Kingdom, and it is not appropriate to start a war between the two states. If there is a real war. If so, it may immediately attract the attention of Tianguan Divine Kingdom." Huang Ling said.
"It is indeed difficult to force the Mengguan State to surrender according to our ideas, but if the Mengguan State surrenders according to our ideas, there will be many benefits. The most critical thing now is the combat effectiveness of the Mengguan State defenders. , if its combat effectiveness is strong, it will be very difficult for us to achieve our goal." Huang Long said.
"Yes, this can only be judged through battle. Only a fierce battle between Yunxi State's expedition team and Meng Guan State's city defense team can determine the attitude of Meng Guan State's leader and enable us to formulate a suitable plan. Strategy and tactics. Okay, let's go back!" Huang Ling said.
Jinshan flew a small circle over Mengguan City again, and then flew east.
At this time, the Eighth Alliance Army and the Ninth Alliance Army of the Yunxi State led by Jin Long had arrived at Mengguan City and quickly attacked the East Gate and South City Gate.
According to Jin Long's plan, the Eighth Alliance Army mainly attacked the East City Gate, and the Ninth Alliance Army mainly attacked the South City Gate, leaving the North City Gate and the West City Gate for Meng Guanbang's team to escape.
Although Jin Long made a surrender request to the leader of Meng Guan State, Jin Long estimated that the leader of Meng Guan State would not surrender easily. At most, he would escape from Meng Guan City when he could no longer resist.
Therefore, he formulated a package plan to drive away the Mengguan State defenders, occupy Mengguan City, and then force the leader of Mengguan State to surrender on the basis of occupying Mengguan City.
If the leader of Mengguan State never surrenders, then he will occupy the territory of Mengguan State to the maximum extent and expand the territory of Yunxi State.
Therefore, Jinlong's plan is to first force the leader of Mengguan State to surrender, secondly to occupy Mengguan City, and thirdly to occupy a large amount of territory in Mengguan State and expand the territory of Yunxi State.
Of course, it is impossible to achieve all three goals.
As the saying goes, the only way to achieve great things is to get them. The main purpose of Jinlong is to occupy a large amount of territory in Mengguan State and expand the territory of Yunxi State.
But in order to hide this real purpose, he made a strong request for the surrender of the Mengguan State.
This request not only showed the strength of Yunxi State's expeditionary army, but also showed the firm confidence of Yunxi State's expeditionary army, which put heavy psychological pressure on the leader of Mengguan State.
This also made the leader of Mengguan State not rush to send troops to block Yunxi State's army, but decided to stick to Mengguan City.
Huang Ling called Jinlong's plan the method of defeating the enemy, which is to conquer the opponent through strategy and strive for the maximum benefit for his own actions.
Now, Yunxi State's army has successfully crossed the three-hundred-mile territory of Mengguan State and reached Mengguan City without spending a single soldier. It can be said to be the first victory of the Golden Dragon Plan.
"Hahaha, we finally arrived at Mengguan City and achieved the first step of our goal. The Eighth Alliance Army and the Ninth Alliance Army, you attack the east city gate and the south city gate respectively to test the combat effectiveness of Mengguan City's defense team." Jinlongzhuan The voice ordered.
Following Jin Long's order, the two coalition forces immediately launched an attack.
The Eighth Alliance Army had ten legions, and they lined up around the east gate of Mengguan City to attack from far to near, gradually approaching the east gate.
The twelve legions of the Ninth Alliance Army lined up along the southern city wall and city gate and launched an attack at the same time.
Two hours later, except for the dead men, all the mengguanbang troops who relied on trench defense outside the east city gate retreated back inside the mengguan city wall. The eighth coalition army completely occupied the various trenches outside the east city gate and began to to attack the east city gate.
However, the trenches outside the south city gate were very dense and strong, and there were more soldiers stationed in Mengguan City, which almost completely blocked the attack of the Ninth Alliance Army.
It was not until all the Meng Guanbang soldiers outside the east city gate retreated into the city that they gradually gave up resistance and retreated into the city.
Although this peripheral battle only lasted for more than two hours, both sides used a lot of troops.
Meng Guanbang's troops made full use of the various trenches around the city and carried out very fierce resistance.
The Yunxi Bang expedition team also used the attack formation more skillfully, exerting a strong collective effect, destroying the trenches of the Mengguan City defenders bit by bit, forcing the defenders outside the East and South Gates of Mengguan City to attack. The city team retreated step by step.
Jinshan took Huang Ling and Huang Long to carefully observe the fighting situation of the Eighth Alliance Army and the Ninth Alliance Army.
Huang Long said: "It can be seen from the battles in the southeast that although the soldiers of Yunxi State are not as good as those of Meng Guan State, they use the formations better and play the role of attack formations. Meng Guan State's team Although there are strong and complex trenches that can be used, the soldiers fight alone and rarely fight in groups, so they sacrifice more. Another point is that the soldiers of Yunxi State have a higher fighting passion and a stronger fighting will, while the Mongolian soldiers The Guanbang soldiers have relatively low fighting passion and dare not leave the trenches or take the initiative to attack. From these two points, our team has a slight advantage, but to successfully attack the city gate, we need to find some way."
"Jinshan, you send a message to Jinlong and ask him to order the team to suspend the attack and station themselves on the southeast and southeast sides of the city to monitor the movements of the Mengguan City team," Huang Ling said.
Jinshan then sent a message to Jinlong, asking Jinlong to order the troops to suspend the attack and station them separately for surveillance.
After Jinlong received the message from Jinshan, he immediately ordered the Eighth Alliance Army and the Ninth Alliance Army to stop the attack, retreat 200 meters to camp and repair, and monitor the movements in Mengguan City.
The Mengguan City defenders all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Yunxi Bang's army suddenly stop attacking and retreat 200 meters.
Today, they first resisted hard in the trenches outside the city, and then retreated into the city and then defended with all their strength on the city wall, which had exhausted their strength.
Now that the Yunxi Bang team has withdrawn, they can also take a rest, so they are naturally very happy.
But when the leader of Mengguan State heard that Yunxi State's troops retreated 200 meters and took up positions, he began to beat drums in his heart.
Because he was worried that Yunxi Bang's troops would move to the North City Gate and West City Gate to attack, he also drove his troops outside the North City Gate and West City Gate into the city.
If that were the case, Yunxi Bang's team would completely surround Mengguan City, making Mengguan City an isolated city, and would eventually lead to chaos without a fight.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered half of the soldiers in the South City to be transferred outside the West City to strengthen the defense of the West City Gate, and half of the soldiers in the East City to be transferred outside the North City Gate to strengthen the defense of the North City Gate, leaving only half of the soldiers to continue guarding the East City Gate. and the west gate.
Jinshan saw the changes in the ranks in Mengguan City from the air and said: "The leader of Mengguan State has added 40,000 soldiers to the north and west of the city. I'm afraid he is worried that we will attack. Since he is so afraid of us attacking the west gate and north city Door, then let’s go attack it and see what he is worried about!”
"We can pretend to attack the west city gate and the north city gate, but we still have to take the opportunity to attack the south city gate and the east city gate to make him worry about his head and tail." Huang Long said.
"According to our previous statistics, the number of soldiers inside and outside the four gates of Mengguan City is about the same. Now if 40,000 soldiers from the South City Gate and East City Gate are drawn out to enrich the West City Gate and North City Gate, that means that the South City Gate and There are still 20,000 soldiers defending the East City Gate, and more than 60,000 soldiers defending the North City Gate and West City Gate respectively. This situation shows that Meng Guanbang attaches great importance to the North City Gate and the West City Gate, and is worried that we will capture them again. . It can be seen from this that the North City Gate and the West City Gate are the lifeline of Mengguan City. They are not willing to lose them easily and will always guard them with heavy troops. In this case, we will send some soldiers to feint attack. However, we cannot attack the North City at the same time. The city gate and the west city gate should be attacked one by one, leaving an escape channel for them. Okay, inform Jinlong that the attack will stop today. At noon tomorrow, the Eighth Alliance Army will continue to attack the east city gate, and the four legions of the Ninth Alliance Army will attack the south gate. The eight legions at the city gate pretended to attack the west gate," Huang Ling said.
"The key targets of this arrangement are the East City Gate and the West City Gate. The South City Gate is considered a non-key point. Should we break through from the South City Gate?" Huang Long said.
"Yes. I focused on observing the South City Gate today. If we want to enter the city, I'm afraid we have to find a way from the South City Gate. According to my observation, the South City Gate is the tallest and widest, and it looks really difficult to attack from the outside. . But if you observe carefully, you can find that the South City Gate is not as strong as other city gates, and the defense inside is relatively loose. As long as our soldiers use attack formations to attack repeatedly as a unit, we can attack within an hour. Open the city gate. Of course, we are just giving it a try tomorrow, it is better not to rush to attack the city gate!" Huang Ling said.
Jinshan then conveyed Huang Ling's intention to Jinlong again, asking Jinlong to organize a team to attack the east, south and west gates of Mengguan City at noon tomorrow, but they must mainly use feint attacks to further weaken the fighting will of Mengguanbang's soldiers. , and continued to force the leader of Mengguan State to surrender.
After Jinlong received the message from Jinshan, he sent an order to all coalition forces to continue repairing and prepare for the battle at noon tomorrow.
After the leader of the Mengguan State mobilized the soldiers from the East City Gate and the South City Gate to strengthen the defenses of the North City Gate and the West City Gate, he summoned the top men of the Mengguan State to discuss the next step.
A strong man with a late third-level cultivation in the Divine Disciple Realm first said: "Dear Lord, I suggest that the troops on the northwest border be withdrawn immediately. If Mengguan City cannot be protected, what is the point of us guarding the northwest border? Do we Do you want to retreat there? Our only task now is to protect Mengguan City and repel Yunxi Bang’s attack."
Another strong man who had perfected the third level of the Divine Disciple realm also said: "Bang leader, you can no longer hesitate, you must immediately withdraw the northwest border defense team. Now, only the northwest border defense team can save Meng Guanbang, you can no longer hesitate Got it!"
After listening to the words of the two high-level powerhouses of the third level of the Divine Disciple Realm, all the high-level powerhouses of the Meng Guan State present said in unison: "Please, the leader of the state, immediately withdraw the northwest border defense army and fight the final battle!"
