Chapter 225: Detour and Confrontation

"There are another three thousand soldiers of the Chu army crossing the river and planning to meet with the thousands of Chu soldiers who retreated to Tuanshan Town to rest and recuperate?"

He was dropped twice in a row, losing nearly 6,000 soldiers. The foolish man was not here to joke this time. When the players and soldiers who were lucky enough to be trapped in the seal and fled, they reported the situation they encountered, from the players to the NPC, the coalition was soon shocked and suddenly realized. It turned out that the Chu army had already planned and arranged things. They were neither to lure the enemy nor attack food and grass, but to do it in a real way.

Flying a kite using a very strange means.

Using the weak to fight the strong, kite flow is indeed a good tactic. Eat a little of you today, eat a little of you, withdraw after eating, rest and come back again. Even if you have several times the strength of the troops, you cannot withstand such torture.

The Chu army obviously realized that things were just three times. The first coalition was beaten unexpectedly. The second coalition was too few soldiers to pursue the enemy, which was considered underestimating the enemy. However, the third time, the coalition obviously would not send thousands of soldiers to die.

Therefore, the Chu army quickly drew another 3,000 soldiers from the city to reinforce, so that there would be no absolute gap in military strength and would continue to chew more with less.

This plan is quite good. If the coalition forces sent another 10,000 soldiers this time, it would probably be gnawed again. In this way, the 16,000 coalition forces would be gnawed, and the total number of coalition forces coming this time was only 60,000. In addition, the coalition forces would have to leave thousands of soldiers to prevent the Chu army and players from attacking food and grass. At that time, 40,000 soldiers would attack the city guarded by 15,000 soldiers, and the danger of the Han River of the Chu army fighting at home was there, and it would not be impossible to fight a stalemate.

The army was bound to win the southern expedition, and it was obviously not what the coalition forces wanted to see. Moreover, the more stalemate, the more unfavorable it was for the coalition, because the Chu army in the western expedition might return to aid urgently - of course, the coalition forces would not. The order given by the Chu Palace to the Western Expedition Army was "no need to return". In addition, the supply of food and grass and food security of the offensive side in the away game was also a problem. The Chu army sent troops at dusk. Until now, the night had already arrived, so it was definitely impossible to rule out the possibility of attacking food and grass at night.

So the coalition quickly and decisively made a decision - to leave 10,000 soldiers to guard the granary, and the remaining 44,000 soldiers immediately attacked the Chu army, divided into two groups, and 34,000 people from one group immediately attacked the Chu army. If the Chu army still wanted to use the old method to play kite flow, then fight a decisive battle with the Chu army, and the other 10,000 teams attacked by detour. If the Chu army dared to fight outside the city, then they would cut off the Chu army's retreat, and the troops encircled, and wiped out the Chu army outside the city.

"Ah, the enemy is powerful, and there are other troops trying to seize our retreat," Xiao Ye was also quite straightforward when the coalition forces marched a mile away. "Let's retreat and leave the players of the [miku Guard] here to cut off the rear. [Nine Princess] just said hello to them. Let's first fight against more than 10,000 enemy troops who were surrounded by the side - the old way."

The reconnaissance players in Fancheng have long been flying in the air to observe the enemy's probable forces. Similarly, the coalition forces are the same. The intelligence of the two sides to the opponent's forces comes relatively quickly. Although there are occasional confrontations between players in the air, most skills require certain skill movements, even when they meet on narrow roads, they often pass by each other. Players have not yet come up with effective methods of air confrontation. Of course, everything cannot be done too much. Don't think of reconnaissance when you get close to the NPC camp or city, because you will be shot into a hedgehog in the air by the NPC crossbow. At the same time, the NPC archers can also shoot you down like a bird in the wild, so it still has to.

As Xiao Ye wished, the Chu army quickly retreated and met with reinforcements. He took advantage of his home court to be very familiar with the terrain. The Chu army marched rapidly in a short time, and quickly circled half a circle along the west bank of the Baihe River, facing the 10,000 troops down the river bank. However, the enemy was also prepared this time. Seeing the Chu army's four or five thousand troops retreated quickly and met with reinforcements, then came straight to the 10,000 troops, he also decided to retreat very decisively, stopping in the middle of Tuanshan Town and Baihe Village, five or six miles away from Baihe Village, and only two or three miles away from Tuanshan Town. It can be said that if the Tuanshan Town army wants to reinforce, it will arrive in a blink of an eye.

If the Chu army tried to eat their troops here, then the tens of thousands of troops still in Tuanshan Town would quickly rush from the west to the east, and meet with them before the war here ended to fight a decisive battle. The 10,000 army was not something that could be eaten after eating for a while. The first few times were few soldiers, and the formation was easily broken through. When there were more soldiers, once a solid defensive formation was set up in the front and the rear was supported, even if the Chu army used the previous strange method of dividing the enemy, eight thousand to five thousand, it would be impossible to deal with them in the sealed space in a short time. If the Chu army tried to attack grain, the result would be the same and would be entangled here.

The Chu army naturally understood this truth. Therefore, when they saw that the 10,000 coalition troops were stationed, they decided to retreat very decisively. With the help of their familiarity with the home court, they quickly circled back to the south of Tuanshan Town. Under the fierce attack of 30,000 to 40,000 NPC soldiers, the pressure on the player legion was quite high. If it weren't for the various convenient healing magic that NPC soldiers did not have and could add various buffs, then if the 50,000 players would have been defeated long ago when they fought against 30,000 NPCs. Now, they have also retreated, retreated for two or three miles, and if they retreated for another two or three miles, they can drink the water from the Han River.

Due to the rapid rewinding of the Chu soldiers, the battlefield was in a stalemate again. It was not that the coalition forces did not have confidence in defeating the Chu army, but because the two consecutive ambush battles before putting the coalition forces in a considerable psychological pressure. The Chu army now looks like they are retreating step by step, and there must be other conspiracies. The most likely conspiracy is to lure the enemy into deep and defeat them one by one. So looking at the darkness of the night, the coalition soldiers and players did not take too fierce offensive posture, it is better to join forces. More than 80% of the defenders' home advantage is more obvious. Although the guest army is strong, they do not want to lose troops at will.

.In fact, the Chu army quickly migrated military in the area west of Baihe north of the Han River, and attacked by detour and forced back 10,000 coalition forces to retreat. This has shown the Chu army's strong ability to grasp the terrain in this area, making the coalition forces dare not take it lightly, because maybe the Chu army will delay the players for a while and take a larger detour to attack, attack food or carry out previous divisions and encirclements, plus kites, or other tricks. The night provides a good convenience for this detour, and the coalition forces fighting away have to be guarded against this. The two sides formed a stalemate south of Tuanshan Town.

The coalition forces quickly made a decision to prevent the Chu army from attacking the granary at night and moved their headquarters to Tuanshan Town, together with the food and grass of the entire army and most of the soldiers. More than 50,000 soldiers gathered together. Even if there was such a strange division method as before, I would not believe that more than 10,000 Chu army could still eat it at night. If you dare to chew it, I can use the strength of the entire army to entangle you and siege it here.

So a very strange situation quickly appeared on the battlefield outside Fancheng, that is, the coalition forces with absolute advantage in military strength were timid and cautious in front of the Chu army, which had absolute disadvantage in military strength, and kept closely monitoring. There were constantly patrolling coalition players over the entire battlefield. The Chu army, which had absolute disadvantage in numbers, cooperated very well and showed a domineering situation that "I just don't retreat tonight, but I just want to attack at night." The two sides confronted each other in the night.

"When it's dawn, the whole army will suppress you. It's clear that you still have tricks."

When the two sides confronted each other for a few hours, late at night, a coalition general arranged the soldiers to guard and finally returned to the tent to sleep, he said angrily.

In the face of absolute military force, all tactics are clouds.

However, what he didn't expect was that he could no longer wait for dawn.

"Well, although the night is rich and most of the enemies have already moved to Tuanshan Town, these few miles are really scary..." Behind the high river embankment in the east of Baihe Village, Xiao Ye looked at the coalition patrol players who flew through the sky at all times, and the coalition soldiers who had been staying in Baihe Village who had not moved to Tuanshan Town not far away, and complained in a low voice, "This outfit is too conspicuous."

"..." Shana almost couldn't help laughing in the night when she heard his last words.

"But it seems that it is not as expected," Xiao Ye whispered again, "The enemy does not dare to be careless, so even if the large army transfers, they have been sending soldiers and players to patrol all over the world within a few miles near the battlefield. Once the suspicious Chu** team is around two or three miles, more than a thousand left behind will immediately rush to stop it, and even the army of Tuanshan Town will come immediately."

"Yeah." Shana looked up and looked at the patrol players flying through the sky, and whispered, "They were not careless."

Shana certainly understood how difficult it was to lurk along the way. In fact, since the Chu army pursued the coalition forces' 10,000 team and chased each other between Baihe Village and Tuanshan Town, they did not retreat with the army afterwards. They lurked in the night for a long time before taking action. This caution is necessary. Once this action fails, they will become sinners in the whole city.

"But who would have thought that Chu soldiers would not be able to be, nor would Chu players not be able to be large numbers," Shana whispered again, "What about the two of us that would have required dozens or even hundreds of people to be busy for a long time?"

"Well, let's do it, Asami and Kuroko should be ready to start acting at any time." Xiao Ye also smiled, quickly switched to the transformation state, and a unique disk appeared on his arm, "Then, let's start first."
