Chapter 511

In fact, the number of mercenaries today is far less than 3000. After leaving a temporary auxiliary barracks and a cold front company outside the city to take charge of the 7000 Jiaozhi soldiers just captured, the number of mercenaries in the east city building is only about 2300.

Not at home, but at such a disadvantage, Kong Quanxin really doesn't have the confidence to win for how long. Normally, at this time, he should send someone to report to Yang Chendong and ask the main force to arrive quickly, so that the burden on his shoulder can be put down. But he didn't do it. At least in his opinion, things haven't reached that critical time.

Kong Quanxin, who is ready for battle, has even prepared a lot of bows and arrows, so that he can save some bullets at a critical time and prepare for counterattack. But what he saw was completely different from what he thought.

The Jiaozhi soldiers didn't mean to rush forward, but they were hundreds of meters away from the East Tower and stared at themselves. There's a big picture that I won't move if you don't move.

"What are they doing?" Kong Quanxin felt that he could not see through the current situation. Then he ordered the scouts to look around to see if the other party had any conspiracy. At the same time, he sent someone to find a way to contact the security agents in Hanoi. He needed to master more information about the city.

The scouts were sent out. They looked around with binoculars that could see far, and the results were really confusing. Feidan didn't see any signs of the transfer of Jiaozhi soldiers around. On the contrary, he saw many carriages coming out of the west gate.

Soon, the agents of the Security Bureau also contacted them. The agents brought more accurate information. The Jiaozhi army even began to retreat. It seems that it clearly has no intention to fight in Hanoi.

"What are they doing?" Rao Shikong was very open-minded, but after receiving these war reports, he still felt that Zhang Er couldn't touch his head.

"Battalion commander, report the matter to the sixth young master." even the long Tiance couldn't figure out the truth. But he did know that one person must be able to think through, that is Yang Chendong.

"OK." Kong nodded wholeheartedly. After all, the development of the matter was somewhat beyond his expectation. That is, there were such great changes. Of course, we should report the matter to the sixth young master. The next step is to stop the war. Just listen to the order.

In this way, the fast horse scouts came out of the east gate and went straight to the main mercenary force coming from the North Belt city.

Under the leadership of Yang Chendong, the main force of mercenaries moving forward while training shooting skills did not move forward very fast.

On the one hand, he wanted to see if Kong Quanxin's Third Battalion had the strength to fight alone and capture Hanoi city; Secondly, the specifications of this batch of bullets are slightly different because of the urgent requirements, which directly leads to the reduction of accuracy. He wants to issue a document to require chiembedded Arsenal to ensure both efficiency and quality. After that, it can only increase the number of shooting to make up for the target hit rate.

Fortunately, in the past three days of training, after each soldier fired at least 100 bullets, the target hitting rate has been significantly improved, which makes him relax. At this time, the Scout sent by Kong Quanxin rushed over. In fact, they were only forty miles away from Hanoi.

The sudden arrival of the Scout inevitably made Yang Chendong have too many conjectures. He thought the most likely one was to ask for help, so he saw the scout for the first time and learned about what happened in Hanoi.

"Jiaozhi soldiers are retreating outside the city. Is this news accurate?" after listening to the report of the scout, Yang Chendong also showed a puzzled look, but he hid well and others didn't find it.

"Back to the sixth young master, the matter was double confirmed by the special agents of the Security Bureau stationed in Hanoi City in addition to the Scouts of our third battalion. Moreover, our battalion commander also said that after occupying the east city, there was no big battle to fight except a wave of fierce counterattack by the Jiaozhi army at the beginning."

The Scout cleverly didn't answer yes or no, but reported some information he knew truthfully.

"OK, I see. Go down and have a rest first." Yang Chendong nodded. With the above evidence, the Jiaozhi army is really going to withdraw. This also makes him have to sigh. As the commander of Jiaozhi army, his courage to break his wrists is admirable.

Yang Chendong was ready to fight the main force of Jiaozhi army in Hanoi. At that time, with his powerful weapons in his hands, he can ensure that the result of this war will completely defeat the Jiaozhi army. If it comes, the victory and defeat of Jiaozhi will be seen in the first war. But now it seems that things are far from that simple.

Although we still don't know why the Jiaozhi army wants to give up their capital, even if there is such a good thing, if we don't take advantage of the victory and attack, such a good opportunity is really wasted.

"Hu Mang, immediately convey the order. The army set out at full speed and rushed to Hanoi." that is, there was a good opportunity to chase the enemy. Of course, Yang Chendong would not let go, and made a decision at the first time.

When the order was issued, the main force of mercenaries, who had been on their way slowly, moved forward at a rapid pace. The army of nearly 60000 people, like a long snake, went straight into Hanoi, the capital of the country.

Forty miles away, just less than four hours, nearly 60000 people arrived. Outside the city, Kong Quanxin, commander of the Third Battalion, is here with a group of officers to welcome Yang Chendong.

When seeing Yang Chendong on horseback from a distance, Kong Quanxin and others maintained an upright posture and paid a standard military salute.

Yang Chendong turned over and dismounted. After returning to a military salute, he shook hands with Kong Quanxin and others respectively, and then said in a very positive tone, "you've worked hard. You'll be rewarded later. Now let's talk about the situation in the city."

When he heard the reward for meritorious service, Kong grinned wholeheartedly. "Young master Xie Liu affirmed that the situation in the city is very obvious now. The Jiaozhi army in the city is indeed retreating. The news from the security agency is that the current Jiaozhi state is not Prince Li Yuanlong in charge of the overall situation, but the old king Li Li has the power. It is also the decision made by the old king to withdraw from Jiaozhi and go west to the city."

"Oh? Li Li's decision." Yang Chendong nodded after listening. In this way, everything will work.

Who is Li Li? But he was the one who dared to pull his wrist at them in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty. Such people are not only sharp and fierce, but also have a very comparable view of the overall situation. Such people often make decisions about military risks. But in fact, behind such military actions, there are often hidden secrets.

All the way, Yang Chendong, who was riding on his horse, finally wanted to understand the purpose of Jiaozhi army. I have to say that this is indeed a clever trick to change passivity into initiative. It's just a pity that if you want to use this move against mercenaries and yourself, it's still too weak.

Kong Quanxin still didn't want to understand the purpose of Li Li's doing this. When he saw Yang Chendong thinking, he couldn't help asking, "sixth young master, what do you think Jiaozhi army is doing this for?"

"Why? Of course, he doesn't want to be led by our nose. He wants to jump out and beat us." Yang Chendong smiled with a confident look on his face.

"Jump outside and hit us?" Kong Quanxin still didn't understand. Not only him, but also Luo Po, head of the second regiment of Lengfeng, who followed behind Yang Chendong, and Chen Bo, commander of the second battalion. They also looked puzzled.

"Take the map." Yang Chendong knew that he didn't make it clear to the officers below. When they fought, they had no bottom in their hearts, so he waved and asked Hu mang to take the hand-painted cross toe map drawn by the people below.

Several officers grabbed a corner of the map and unfolded it. Then Yang Chendong pointed to Hanoi, the capital of Jiaozhi state, and said: "We are here now. Xiyu city is in the northwest of Hanoi, and the distance between the two sides is less than 200 Li. Compared with Hanoi City, which is the capital of the country, Xiyu city is the only place for us to go to the West and North. If we don't solve here, we can't rest assured to go to these two directions, otherwise we will face the danger of cutting off military supplies and food at any time."

After these words, Luo Po and others nodded one after another. Obviously, they agreed with Yang Chendong's judgment and analysis.

Next, Yang Chendong pointed to the map and said: "Hanoi city is a cross toe country, but at the same time, the environment here is also very complex. It's far from like quyi city and Beidai city we conquered before. Now there are many cities and roads leading to Hanoi city. In other words, if we occupy here, we may be attacked from all directions. Although I haven't found out what the old man Li Li thinks Yes, but he must be able to play the encirclement tactics, and our manpower needs to defend possible enemies in all directions. In addition, it is difficult to solve such a mess in Hanoi. "

While motioning Hu mang to put the map away, Yang Chendong looked at Luo Po and asked, "what's up? You can put forward any ideas and opinions."

In the face of Yang Chendong's encouraging eyes, commander Luo Po just hesitated and said what he was worried about, "Report to the sixth young master, the siege can't threaten us for the time being. We'll wait until the other party settles down. But the civil unrest in Hanoi must be solved. To solve the problem of chaos, we must first solve the problem of eating, and food has become the top priority of all things."
