At noon the next day, Bai Yuhao arrived in Yucheng with 8000 troops, and joined Liu Yi and Ji Wushuang, who had arrived in Yucheng to investigate the terrain ahead of schedule.
After meeting, Bai Yuhao asked the whole army to set up camp on the spot, and then gathered several people to discuss the strategy to deal with the army of shuixia state.
"Staff officer Liu, have you found a terrain that can be used to disperse the enemy forces?" Bai Yuhao first asked Liu Yi that if he could not disperse the enemy forces, he would have to put all 8000 troops into the defense. However, even with the garrison troops in Yucheng, they were only 10000. According to the return of the spies, the shuixia state's strength was obviously inferior to that of 20000. Even if he could resist the attack of Xiaguo's army on Yucheng, if shuixia's scattered forces turned to attack Tianlin City, the red dragon army would have no time to separate itself, and might eventually be consumed up. Therefore, his plan was to take the offensive as the defense and take the initiative to attack. However, everything was ready, only the east wind was needed, which was a terrain that could be used to disperse the enemy forces.
"I found it, but it may be difficult." Liu Yi nodded and then the knife.
"Talk about it." Bai Yuhao's eyes coagulated.
"Yucheng is surrounded by rivers on three sides. Therefore, the only direction for shuixia to launch an attack is in the southern sector, which is basically a plain terrain, so it is almost impossible to ambush, let alone disperse the enemy forces. However, I have found a terrain that can be used to cut off the enemy and divide the enemy into two. If we succeed, we will have an advantage Liu Yi pointed to the topographic map around Yucheng and analyzed it.
"Where is it?" Bai immediately asked.
"It is in this area 600 meters in front of the city gate. The soil in this area is soft and close to the river in the West. If there is a way to dig a 10 meter wide gully in this area and introduce the river from Ximen into the gully, the enemy will be cut off. If the enemy troops cross the water directly, it will be suicide. But if you bypass this gully, you will have to We have to make a big circle... " Liu Yi made a detailed description on the topographic map.
"The enemy will never put 20000 troops into the attack completely. It should only send about 5000 vanguard troops. In this way, we will use this gully to cut off the support of the enemy and surround their vanguard army with us. But what's the difference?" Bai Yuhao immediately came up with a detailed strategy. However, he felt that it was not enough for Xiaguo to fight head-on.
"There is a beach in the west near Yucheng, which is easy to ambush and can attack directly from the flank..." Liu Yi points to a regional road on the map.
"Very well, it is impossible for shuixia state to think that we will ambush the main force on the river beach. If the vanguard army of shuixia state attacks the city gate with all its strength, it will be very difficult to guard against the attack from the side. In addition, with the barrier of this gully belt, the vanguard forces of shuixia state who attack the city gate will be captured." Bai Yuhao quickly planned the whole plan.
"However, it is not easy to dig out such a ravine. It seems that it will take a lot of time..." Liu Yunxuan looked at the topographic map and could not help looking at Bai Yuhao road.
"That's the only difficulty." Liu Yi nodded.
"I have my own way, so you don't have to worry about it." Bai Yuhao smiles.
"Commander Qin, you first take 3000 new soldiers into Yucheng to defend with the garrison and attract the enemy. Yunxuan, you are responsible for..." Then, Bai Yuhao began to deploy the planning road.
After the deployment, it was late at night. Bai Yuhao went to the west of Yucheng alone, released three black desire insects and began to work all night.
In a twinkling of an eye, 20000 troops of shuixia state appeared in Yucheng a mile away. The military flag embroidered with the word "shuixia" fluttered in the wind, ready to move and ready to go. There are three commanders in charge of the army, one of whom was the one who pursued Bai Yuhao last time.
At noon, as Bai Yuhao had expected, the army of shuixia Kingdom sent 5000 troops as the vanguard army, led by a commander, and marched toward the gate of Yucheng like a tide, with a fierce attack.
Qin Tongling, who was in charge of the city wall defense, immediately led the army to defend, and used all kinds of defense means, such as arrow rain, rolling stone, tar and so on.
In an instant, under the city wall, there was a fire and smoke everywhere.
The two commanders of shuixia state, who were in the rear, had a stronger defense than expected, and immediately sent another 5000 troops to support them.
But when the 5000 troops of shuixia state rushed to the place less than 600 meters away from Yucheng, all of a sudden, they felt a violent tremor under their feet. Then, the whole ground collapsed and subsided, forming a gully 10 meters wide and 3 meters high and a kilometer long. Then, a strong water force poured into the gully, and in an instant, the whole gully was swept into it Fill up, all of a sudden blocked the support of shuixia troops.
At this time, under the leadership of Liu Yunxuan, the 5000 red dragon army, which had been ambushed on the beach of Ximen River in Yucheng City for a long time, immediately attacked from the flank. It was like a long gun that suddenly attacked the vanguard army of shuixia state. At the same time, the city gate of Yucheng was opened and thousands of troops poured out like a tide.Seeing such a battle, the vanguard army of shuixia state, whose strength was obviously inferior, got flustered.
"Don't panic. The red dragon army is not the opponent of the shuixia army at all. Our support will come up soon and kill it!" The commander of shuixia, who led the army, immediately stabilized his army.
But at this time, a delicate shadow suddenly appeared in the commander of shuixia state. The strong breath of madness level was undoubtedly revealed, which made the commander's face change.
However, before the commander of shuixia Kingdom reacted, a fierce force of ice and cold attacked him. Although the commander of shuixia state was also a master at Tianzong level, he was immediately frozen into an ice sculpture with people and horses because of the huge gap in strength. Then, it broke like glass, and no bones survived.
"The commander is dead! The commander is dead... "
As soon as the leader of the vanguard army of shuixia state died, the vanguard army was like a loose sand and had no desire to fight.
Under the joint leadership of Liu Yunxuan and Ji Wushuang, the vanguard army of shuixia state had no resistance at all.
Because of the barrier of the ravines, the army of shuixia could only watch from the shore, watching the vanguard army devour alive. However, the remaining two commanders of shuixia Kingdom immediately adjusted their forces, quickly integrated their forces, bypassed the ravines, and marched forward.
However, by the time the army of shuixia arrived around the ravine, the vanguard army had been completely destroyed, and the red dragon army had been killed and wounded less than 1000 people
