Chapter 270

Tongbai County is a small basin in the southeast corner of Nanyang Prefecture. Lu Xiangsheng's army and Cao Bianjiao's cavalry have been entangled here for several days.

At the moment, Lu Xiangsheng is both excited and worried.

"Was it true that half of the cavalry of the thief army was transferred yesterday evening? Are you sure you were transferred, not circuitous? "

"Back to the supervisor, the sentry sent didn't return until after midnight. I'm afraid the thief army has passed Biyang and left in a hurry."

"Supervisor, this is a god given opportunity!"

Xu Jiang Huadun, the staff member, was overjoyed. He knew that the commander had always wanted to encircle and annihilate or seriously destroy the 10000 cavalry soldiers against the thieves, which lured them to Tongbai, but the other party was always cruising around the periphery, leaving them no chance.

However, now the other party's cavalry has been reduced by half, and the threat should be reduced by at least more than half, which makes them feel at ease and bold to divide their troops. If they can divide their troops, they will have the opportunity to detour and ambush.

"Ah! It's true, but the thief army's intention to send cavalry North at this time is self-evident, and sun Boxiong's situation is mostly worrying! "

Lu Xiangsheng stood up with his hands on his back. At a glance, he saw what the cavalry were doing. He also woke up and understood Qin Huan's plot.

"Supervisor, I'm afraid we can't care about Supervisor sun. We can only rely on them. What our army can do now is to take the opportunity to eat the 5000 cavalry, otherwise we'll miss this time. It's estimated that there will be no such good opportunity in the future."

Xu Jianghua quickly reminded that he was also worried that Lu Xiangsheng would be emotional. He directly waved his troops eastward to attack Xinye. In this way, sun chuanting was safe, but they would face danger again.

"Well, with sun Boya's strategy, it should not be so easily surrounded."

Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand and said.

The ten thousand cavalry of the thief army are too threatening. Now he has the opportunity, he will not miss it.

After all, without these 10000 cavalry, would he and sun chuanting be so tied up?

Immediately, the two planned against the map and decided to divide the troops into three ways. They went to attack Tongbai County in a fair and bright way. They hurried eastward quietly and stayed in place all the way to see how the other cavalry responded.

………

Cao Bianjiao was really confused when he learned that the officers and soldiers were divided. For a moment, he didn't know whether to rescue Tongbai County, or to stop the other party from sneaking into Xinye, or to stay in place and stare at the officers and soldiers in the camp.

Because he didn't know which of the three routes was the real elite border army and which two routes were recruits?

"Commander, I think the more than 30000 Ming troops left in the camp are definitely a mob. Most of them want to deliberately attract us to rescue, so that the real elite of the border troops can sneak into Xinye. After all, Xinye is only 200 miles away from here. There is no cavalry to stop it. The army can attack for up to three days."

"I don't think it's so simple, but the king said that Lu Xiangsheng is an old fox. Maybe he just wants us to think so, so he sent those mobs pretending to be elite soldiers to sneak into Xinye, so as to attract us to intercept."

Seeing the following captains arguing endlessly, Cao Bianjiao was as big as a fight for a time.

He is a good player and a qualified general who strictly implements the commander-in-chief's orders, but he is not a handsome talent. He is really helpless in the face of such empty, real and varied tactics.

The only thing to understand is that the other party must want to encircle and annihilate them or hit them hard.

As for how to inflict heavy casualties and how to encircle and annihilate, I can't guess at all. What's urgent is to scratch my ears and cheeks.

At the same time, sun chuanting under Nanyang city was also anxious.

He did not expect that all the anti thief soldiers and horses had been transferred away, but some young and strong boys had stubbornly carried their two-day fierce attack.

Hundreds of cannons collapsed the wall for a while, but the morale of the other party still didn't collapse.

"Commander, those female cavalry are really hateful. In the end, if you want to break Nanyang City, I'm afraid you must get rid of them first."

"Why don't you know that? But they always refused to fight head-on. It's not easy to solve it? "

Sun chuanting was also gnashing his teeth at the two thousand female cavalry soldiers. If they hadn't been eyeing around for two days, he couldn't let go and attack the city with all his strength. I'm afraid they would have attacked it long ago.

Even he could only attack from one side. If there were not hundreds of cannons and saw the hope of breaking the city, he would have taken people away.

After all, as a commander who has experienced a long war and is familiar with military books, he can't see that their situation is actually very dangerous. If they are not good, they may be destroyed.

So when he came, he was surprised. If he didn't hit, he quickly ran away and never entangled under Nanyang city.

"Commander, why don't you lead troops to attack their camp tonight?"

"It won't work. The other party's camp is 40 miles away. Our every move is under their surveillance. It's impossible to make a sneak attack. I'm afraid they'll know as soon as we leave the camp."

Sun chuanting shook his head. When he first came, he thought about it, and even tried every means. Finally, he was rejected one by one.

The reason is that the villages near Nanyang are too dense. Even if you can hide from each other and leave the camp quietly, you will be found halfway.

"Send the order, the army will withdraw and return to the camp, set out tomorrow and return to Ruzhou!"

Although he was no longer reconciled and lost five thousand troops and horses in vain, sun chuanting dared not delay any longer. He looked at the broken city wall that was still fighting fiercely and ordered decisively.

"The supervisor can't do it. Maybe he'll attack it if he works harder. Isn't it a waste of previous efforts to withdraw troops now?"

"Yes, sir, the last general is willing to take the dead to kill himself. He must take the gap before dark."

All the generals were shocked and advised one after another. Obviously, they were unwilling to retreat like this.

"The governor has made up his mind. You don't have to say more!" Sun chuanting's face obviously flashed a touch of hesitation, but then he firmly waved his hand. All the generals sighed, but they didn't dare to say more.

The next day, early in the morning, the army went to the north, faster than before.

Xiaocui had already received Qin Huan's order that they should try their best to entangle each other, so she immediately followed up with cavalry.

On the way, he rushed and killed several times regardless of casualties, but he still couldn't stop the march of the army.

Seeing that the other party was so eager to entangle them, sun chuanting immediately understood that the Chinese army was afraid that it was not redeploying troops and wanted to encircle and annihilate them.

While worried, he also stopped caring about those casualties and let the cavalry wash and disturb, and the army moved forward quickly.

But the next day, five thousand Pro guard cavalry came in a hurry.
