With Baihe as the boundary, the north and south banks are all set up with camps.
Both sides sent small groups of troops, and you came and went for testing.
The Tatars came and went in a hurry, but Fu Mingyuan couldn't help but frown. The Tatars came too fast and left too fast. It didn't seem like they were here to inquire about something, but more like they were here to confirm something.
“Have you seen and remembered the terrain and army formation clearly?”
Twenty miles away, Khan, who had been sitting for most of the day, suddenly turned his head, and behind him, there was Hundreds of Tatar officers all stood in awe.
In summer, the vegetation is plentiful, and no one can be seen here at all from several miles away.
And among them, the leading general, after hearing this, immediately stepped forward and nodded: "The left army is indeed the Gu family army, and the right army is Qin Bohuai, with a jade face... Gu Nanxi is in charge of the central army."< br>
Central The faces of the Tatar officers were all excited: "The defense map is real!"
Being able to accurately know the opponent's defense map, plus the fact that our own troops far exceed the opponent's, even if Gu Nanxi is on the opposite side, this battle will be difficult. Our side must win!
Khan's hands tightly grasped the armrests of the chair, his forehead jumped slightly, and he took several rough breaths before suppressing his inner excitement: "How are the troop arrangements going?"
"Gu Jiajun's kitchen pits are more than expected. And it seems to be deliberately letting us see it, without any concealment."
Not only did the Khan's face not show a trace of disappointment, but he became more and more excited. : "Gu Hai is like this! If the Zuo Army's number is really as many as one hundred thousand as he later claimed, he will only reduce it, not increase it!"
"Khan, are we doing everything as planned? Act?" The officers were killed one by one and were eager to try.
The Khan wiped his face and gritted his teeth and said: "Let's wait for a few more days and wait for news from King Zuo Xian!"
At this moment, King Zuo Xian also received the spy's reward, I couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Haha, Gu Nanxi will definitely die this time! Yunzhou is ours!"
Wanyan Wushu was also very happy: "Gu Nanxi planned to let Gu Hai raid Wuzhou and cut off our logistics. She must not have expected that her troop distribution and layout would clearly fall into our eyes!"
< br>“Our people I have been lying in wait there for a long time, just waiting for Gu Hai to cross the river, and I can catch the turtle in the jar!"
Wanyan Wushu really wanted to laugh out loud, this was the most exciting battle he had ever fought, the opponent's All actions are under your control!
King Zuo Xian had already sent people to ambush the two places, just waiting for Gu Hai to divide his troops, he could swallow them all.
At the same time, Wanyan Wushu will take a detour with 30,000 cavalry to Fuming Town!
Thirty thousand cavalry are enough to block Gu Nanxi's supply line!
Now everyone is waiting, waiting for Gu Hai to fall into the trap, waiting for Gu Nanxi to run out of ammunition and food!
Gu Nanxi only brought ten days of rations. The two wise kings and the Khan wanted to try their best to delay this war as far back as possible, the more beneficial it would be for their own side!
In order to confuse Gu Nanxi, the Khan who stayed behind in the Chinese army would launch small-scale attacks from time to time.
"Father, if the news that Zuojun Gu Hai is trapped reaches Gu Nanxi, what should we do?"
King Zuo Xian smiled with an inscrutable look on his face: "Isn't that better? They don't have enough troops. If Gu Nanxi divides his troops to help the Zuo army, the Khan will send his troops south! The three times difference in strength, even if Gu Nanxi There is no way to save it!”
Because they knew Gu Nanxi’s strategic layout, this time, the Tatars directly attacked the Chinese army with 250,000 troops, with King Xian on the left leading 150,000 troops, and King Xian on the right leading 10 Ten thousand.
It can be said that this time the Tatars and the Emperor of Zhou laid a dragnet against Gu Nanxi and all the Yunzhou generals.
When Gu Nanxi realizes that there is no backup or supplies, it will be at least twenty days later.
By then, the army, which has been hungry for more than ten days, will have no fighting power at all! The grassland soldiers gathered by Gu Nanxi will turn into sharp knives and bite Gu Nanxi back!
Looking at hundreds of years, no army can maintain combat effectiveness after starving for half a month.
...In the Yunzhou Central Army tent, Gu Nanxi looked at the map and fell into deep thought.
This is the seventh day of the confrontation between the two armies. There is no news about Gu Hai's raid from the left army, but Qin Bohuai from the right army replies that everything is normal.
The messenger sent to the seven towns in Yunzhou has not returned yet, and I don’t know if the reinforcements have arrived?
In the past few days, neither Yunzhou nor the Tatars have made large-scale troop mobilizations.
Early in the morning, both sides sent people to scold each other across the river, and the scolding was very unpleasant.
The day before yesterday, the Khan sent an envoy to give himself a set of women's clothes, which meant that he would abide by women's ethics and return to his house to wash his hands and make soup.
Gu Nanxi gave him a scimitar in return, with the name of the Khan's favorite sixth prince engraved on it.
The sixth prince was buried in the sea of fire when Gu Nanxi burned Chi'erla.
This scimitar is one of the trophies.
The Khan was so angry that he drew his sword on the spot and wanted to fight Gu Nanxi to the death, but was stopped by many Tatar officers in the Chinese army, so he gave up.
Thinking of this, Gu Nanxi felt vaguely uneasy.
I was waiting for news about Gu Hai, so what was Tatar waiting for?
Gu Nanxi sat down, took out the defense map, and looked at it carefully.
There is no problem with the central army, the left army, and the right army. The only weakness is reinforcements and logistics.
Did the Tatars send a surprise force to go behind the Yunzhou army and raid the seven towns of Yunzhou?
However, even if the quality of the Dazhou reinforcements is not as good as that of the Yunzhou army, the number of reinforcements is a full 50,000, and with the convenience of a city wall, if you want to capture them, you must send at least 80,000 troops!
Such a large mobilization of troops cannot be hidden from so many eyes of the Yunzhou army!
So, what do the Tatars want to do?
"Come here, increase the provocation against the Tatars!" Gu Nanxi decided to increase the provocation. If the other party holds back, it means there must be fraud.
Until noon, whether the Yunzhou army sent small groups to cause nuisance or engage in scolding, Khan did not send any troops, and the entire Tatar camp remained the same as the previous days.
The weather became more and more dull, with dark clouds floating in the sky, but it never rained.
Ordinary people have noticed this sense of depression that the storm is coming, but the Tatars have not attacked.
Many grassland soldiers became restless.
Gu Nanxi couldn't sit still anymore and would go out of the military tent from time to time to look at the movement on the left.
Obviously it was so far away and nothing could be seen, but Gu Nanxi really had no choice but to wait in the military tent any longer.
"There must be some omissions! What went wrong?" Gu Nanxi thought hard.
My instinct told me that we should carry out a decisive battle as soon as possible, because there was only enough food and grass to last the army for two or three days.
But reason told me that this was not possible. Once the Chinese army made a big move, the left side would be easily exposed. Gu Hai and Gu Jiajun would be exposed, and all the previous layouts would be in vain!
Gu Nanxi couldn't sit still, but she didn't know that Gu Hai and Gu Jiajun were also in a dangerous situation.
