Soon after, Guishan received a reply from the leader of Xingguan State.
Guishan smiled and said: "The leader of Xingguan State has heard back and agrees that the Yunxi State team will enter Xingguan State to resist Sha Guan State. However, after the battle is won, they must withdraw from Xingguan State, and then Xingguan State will join Yunxi State." Make an alliance.”
"Okay, send a message to Jinlong, speed up, and go straight into Xingguan City. Kang Guanbang's team and Du Guanbang's team are waiting at the border and will not enter Xingguanbang for the time being." Huang Ling said.
Guishan immediately sent a message to Jinlong, asking Jinlong to lead the Yunxi State's Sixth Alliance Army, Seventh Alliance Army, and Eighth Alliance Army to speed up and penetrate Xingguan City. And asked Jinlong to notify Kang Guanbang's team and Du Guanbang's team to wait at their respective borders and suspend entry into Xingguanbang's territory.
After Jinlong received Guishan's message, he was stunned for a moment, and then said secretly: "That's good, let's turn one step into two steps. First, let Kang Guanbang's team and Du Guanbang's team attract the northern Xingguanbang coalition and Xingguanbang's troops from the outside. Eastern Allied Forces. After we help the coalition forces defending Xingguan City to eliminate the Sha Guanbang team, we will take the opportunity to occupy Xingguan City and control the entire Xingguan State."
After thinking clearly, Jin Long sent a message to Kang Guanbang Banshuai and Du Guanbang's Marshal of the Western Alliance, explaining his plan in detail, and asked Kang Guanbang's southern coalition and Du Guanbang's western coalition to pay attention to the Xingguanbang team and prevent it from going to Xingguan City.
"Hahaha, Marshal Jinlong continues to adopt the strategy of dividing and attacking this time. He wants us to keep the northern Xingguanbang coalition forces at the northern border of Xingguanbang, and wants Du Guanbang's troops to keep the eastern Xingguanbang coalition forces at the eastern border of Xingguanbang. He led the Yunxi State troops directly into Xingguan City, first eliminated the Sha Guan State troops, and then took the opportunity to occupy Xingguan City. This is both a split-attack strategy and a very clever heart-breaking tactic. It's wonderful!" Banshuai closed. He said after receiving the message from Jin Long.
After receiving the message from Jin Long, Marshal Du Guanbang of the western coalition also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Our main task is to detain the eastern coalition of Xingguan State and prevent the eastern coalition of Xingguan State from returning to Xingguan City. I Originally, we thought that we would attack Xingguan State together with all our strength, and we were still thinking about how to deploy it more smoothly and effectively. But now we are attacking separately and trying to reduce large-scale battles. Okay, very good! Marshal Jinlong’s plan is very good. Exquisite!"
After Jinlong finished transmitting messages to Commander Kang Guanbang and Marshal Du Guanbang of the western coalition forces, he immediately sent a message to the marshals of the three coalition forces of Yunxi State, asking them to once again encourage the soldiers to increase their forward speed and penetrate directly into Xingguan City in the south, striving to advance within three days. It appears around Xingguan City.
The news that the three major coalition forces of Yunxi State went south to Xingguan State and vigorously assisted Xingguan State in resisting Sha Guan State's invasion quickly spread to many places.
The Sha Guanbang team surrounding Xingguan City also received the news.
Marshal Huang Niu said: "Yunxi State is a small state in the north of Tianguan Kingdom. They actually sent three coalition forces to assist Xingguan State. From this, we can see that the relationship between Yunxi State and Xingguan State is very good. But I seriously doubt the number of soldiers of the three major coalition forces of Yunxi State. These three major coalition forces should only be called small coalition forces. The real size should be only a small coalition army. The total number of soldiers is only 100,000 at most. Therefore, my plan is to temporarily evacuate Xingguan City. Go to the north of Xingguan City to ambush the Yunxi State team that came from afar, catch them off guard, and cleanly eliminate the Yunxi State team, and also give other divine states of Tianguan Divine Kingdom a show of strength, and call them other divine states of Tianguan Divine Kingdom. They don’t dare to come back to support Xingguan State.”
"Hello, Marshal! We will resolutely implement the Marshal's order." Sha Guanbang's generals all said with fists in their hands.
Following Marshal Sha Guanbang's orders, Sha Guanbang's troops gradually left the area around Xingguan City, leaving only one legion to monitor three miles north of Xingguan City.
Seeing Sha Guanbang's team gradually withdrawing from Xingguan City, Guishan said: "The news that Yunxi Bang's team came to support Xingguan Bang has spread to many places, and Sha Guanbang's team must have also received the news. Now, Sha Guanbang's team has come to support Xingguan Bang." The Bang team gradually left Xingguan City and gathered more than ten miles north of Xingguan City. It is obvious that they are going to concentrate their efforts to fight against the Yunxi Bang aid team. We need to follow them and call the team led by Jin Long to pay attention."
"This is very good. This will prevent our team from looking for them to fight for a decisive battle. By the way, after we grasp the accurate situation, we can notify the Xingguan City defensive coalition forces to come out and attack the Sha Guanbang team together with the Yunxi Bang team. Fight and win." Huang Long said.
"If our team can take advantage of the situation and enter Xingguan City after flanking Sha Guanbang's team, that would be perfect!" Jinshan said.
Huang Ling said thoughtfully: "Judging from the actions of Sha Guanbang's team, they are going north to attack Yunxi Bang's team. This is indeed what we want. But we want to use this to guard Xingguanbang in Xingguan City. It may not be possible to attract the coalition forces from the city, because the leader of Xingguan State is both ambitious and timid and cunning. He will not casually order the coalition forces defending the city to come out to fight. Besides, we have only provided them with some intelligence, and they are very likely to I still don’t believe it. If we want to attract the coalition forces defending the city from Xingguan City and let our team take the opportunity to enter the city, we must think of some other ways."
"Yes, judging from what the leader of Xingguan State did in the past, it will be very difficult for us to get the Xingguan City defenders to leave Xingguan City. If we quickly annihilate the Sha Guan State team, the defenders of Xingguan City will It is even more impossible for the coalition forces not to come out. If we want to take advantage of the opportunity of annihilating Sha Guanbang's team to attract Xingguan State's defending coalition forces, we must use some strong medicine!" Kameyama said.
"I have an idea. Although Sha Guanbang's team went north to fight us, we can completely avoid fighting and not fight Sha Guanbang's team north of Xingguan City. We can go back to the south of Xingguan City and capture Sha Guanbang's team first. We will take back the territory of Xingguan State, and then consider a decisive battle with Sha Guanbang's team. Do you think what Sha Guanbang's team will think after we avoid the battle and return to the south of Xingguan City? Will they think that it is because of us? The team's combat effectiveness is weak and they dare not fight with them head-on, so they fled to the occupied area of Sha Guanbang's team to cause trouble? There is also the leader of Xingguan State. He may also think that our combat effectiveness is not strong and he does not dare to fight with Sha Guanbang. The Guanbang team will fight hard. If this is the case, we will occupy the southern territory of Xingguanbang bit by bit, sink the foundation deeply, and then destroy the Sha Guanbang team or force the Sha Guanbang team to surrender to us. By then, even if we cannot occupy Xingguan City, we will be able to gradually control Xingguan State." Jinshan said.
"This is also a method, but this method is very inconsistent with our previous plan! In addition, if this method is adopted, the strength of our three coalition forces will not be enough, because we entered the southern part of Xingguan State and occupied the entire Xingguan State The southern region will need a lot of combat power in the future, such as guarding several passes in the Hongmeng Mountains and guarding against the coalition forces stationed on the east and west sides of Xingguan State. If these places occupy a lot of our strength, we will not be able to eliminate Sha Guanbang's troops. It has fighting strength!" Huang Long said.
"The method proposed by Brother Jinshan will take longer, and it does require more combat power. I also thought of a method. Now, Sha Guanbang's team is heading north to face us, but their team only has a few hundred thousand people. It is impossible for our soldiers to defeat our team, but why do they do this? I think the commander-in-chief of Sha Guanbang misjudged our strength. The team that Sha Guanbang invaded Xingguanbang was called the five major coalition forces, but before There are only more than 200,000 soldiers, and now there are only hundreds of thousands of soldiers. It can be seen from this that a coalition of Sha Guanbang may have 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers. Therefore, the commander of Sha Guanbang's team probably also thinks that we The three major coalition forces of China only have more than 100,000 soldiers, so they dare to go north to fight us. In this case, we will divide our troops into two groups. The first group will lead two coalition forces led by Brother Jin Long to secretly detour to the south of Xingguan City to ambush, and the second group will We will directly command a coalition army to fight against Sha Guanbang's team. We will use these 100,000 soldiers to slowly deal with Sha Guanbang's team, neither a big victory nor a big defeat, so as to attract the coalition forces defending Xingguan City to come out to join the battle. If Xingguan City When the coalition forces defending Guancheng came out of the city, Brother Jinlong led the ambush team to quickly occupy Xingguan City and control the leader of Xingguan State and a number of high-level experts. Then we would destroy Sha Guanbang's team or force Sha Guanbang's soldiers to surrender. "Guishan said.
Huang Ling's eyes lit up after hearing what Guishan said, and he said: "We are on the verge of an arrow now, and we can only take one step at a time. There are three ways now. The first one is to concentrate our three coalition forces and march north to fight us. All Sha Guanbang’s teams were wiped out, but this failed to attract the Xingguan City defending coalition, and we could not take the opportunity to enter Xingguan City and control Xingguan State. Our team could follow Xingguan Bang’s requirements after wiping out Sha Guanbang’s teams. Retreat. If this is the case, we will be very passive and will not be able to realize our original plan at all. The second way is to go back to the south of Xingguan City and occupy the southern part of Xingguan State first, and thus cut off the invasion of Xingguan State The Shaguanbang team has contact with the local Shaguanbang, forcing them to surrender to us, and then gradually develop forces to control Xingguanbang based on the southern part of Xingguanbang. However, this method will take a longer time and is inconsistent with our original plan. There are some contradictions. The third one is that the troops are divided into two groups. One group fights with the Sha Guanbang team heading north to fight us, attracting the Xingguan City defending coalition forces to come out to join the battle. The other group takes the opportunity to occupy Xingguan City and control Xingguan State. In comparison, Yan, the third of these three methods is more advantageous. Okay, Brother Jinshan, you fly north quickly and meet Brother Jinlong. And Brother Guishan, you send a message to Jinlong and ask him to order the team to postpone their advance. Wait for our arrival.”
After hearing this, Jinshan accelerated his flying speed and flew to the north.
Guishan sent a message to Jinlong, asking Jinlong to order the three coalition forces of Yunxi State to suspend their advance and hide and wait for the arrival of Emperor Ling.
Jin Long received the message from Guishan and was very suspicious, but he still immediately ordered the three coalition forces to suspend their advance and hide on the spot, waiting for new orders.
