So that's what Feng King meant. The generals all nodded, feeling that Tang Yin's analysis was reasonable. Since the other party had taken the initiative to deliver them to their doorstep, they wouldn't take the advantage of this.
According to Tang Yin's orders, the walls of the Dragon Head Fortress should be filled with the banners of Zhen Country. The armies of Feng, Yu, An and Huan should all leave, and those standing on the walls should be all from the Zhen Soldier.
In truth, it was just as Tang Yin had expected, the Chastity Army was indeed reinforcements, and did not know that the Dragon Head Fortress had changed hands. Firstly, this battle had happened too quickly, and secondly, it was also the most important point, the allied army had completely annihilated the defending army without letting a single person escape, thus completely sealing off the news of the Dragon Head Stronghold's fall.
When the allied forces attacked, they didn't use any large siege weapons, and the defense of the stronghold wasn't damaged at all. The city walls were filled with chastity flags, and the soldiers standing on guard were also chastity soldiers.
If it was daytime, reinforcements might have been able to see the blood that had not been washed clean. However, it was now late at night. Even if there was a torch, the range of view was very limited.
When all the reinforcements from Zhen Country had entered the fortress and the city gate was closed, suddenly, sounds of fighting and killing came from all around the fortress. When all the reinforcements from Zhen Country had entered the fortress, and the city gate was closed from all directions.
The reinforcements didn't understand what was going on. Their faces were filled with astonishment and confusion. They were completely at a loss when they saw the allied army that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
There was no battle, and there was no need to fight anymore. The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. If they really fought, the close to a hundred thousand soldiers could easily stomp these three thousand men into meat patties.
Under the good advice of the Chastity Army's soldiers, the three thousand reinforcements did not resist, and finally put down their weapons and surrendered.
Surrendering to the support army was just a small interlude, but Tang Yin was acutely aware of the possibility. Since these reinforcements had no idea about the loss of the Dragon's Head Fortress, could there be more reinforcements on their way?
If they captured as many of the Chastity Army as possible, it would greatly deplete the military strength of the entire Dragon Lake County.
Understanding this point, he immediately ordered Le Tian and Ai Jia to send a message to the main force of the Alliance Army behind him, telling them to temporarily camp out and not to enter Dragon Lake County, in order to attract more reinforcements to the Dragon Head Fortress.
Tang Yin's strategy had a miraculous effect. In the two days that the allied army was stationed at the Dragon Head Fortress, they had to face five more reinforcements, some with thousands of people, some with hundreds of people, adding together, it was close to twenty thousand.
It was not until the third day that the news of the stronghold's fall spread throughout Dragon Lake County.
Seeing that there were no longer any allied troops coming, Tang Yin allowed the main force of the allied army to enter the Dragon Lake County. They divided up some of their troops to be stationed at the Dragon Head Fortress to guard the captives.
Currently in Dragon Lake County, two of the three counties had basically become empty counties. All of the military forces were concentrated in Xinyu County. The western advance of the allied army was smooth. It only took them four days to approach Xinyu County.
This was the last line of defense for the Xi Tang, and the entire county's forces had already exceeded three hundred thousand. This three hundred thousand strong army was scattered across the Huaning and city gates.
These two cities were like the two horns that grew from Xi Tang. If the allied army ignored these two cities and went straight for Xi Tang, then the Zhen Country side could attack from three sides, surrounding and attacking the allied army.
Therefore, even though the Xi Tang were already close at hand, the allied army could only deal with them steadily, and wanted to take down the two cities, Huaning and Tong Cheng first.
After discussing how to attack Huaning and Tong Cheng, the four nation's rulers and five nation's generals were gathered together to discuss tactics and strategy.
Li Xin was the first to state his stance, and said: "Our army has a million people, and according to the information we have obtained, the number of people in Huaning and the number of people in the city doesn't exceed two hundred thousand. Our army can split into two paths, advance side by side, and take out the Huaning and the city through one, and after taking down the two cities, attack the Xi Tang from both sides."
He spoke with full confidence and confidence, and right now, the alliance army did indeed have this kind of strength.
Tang Yin smiled indifferently and asked: "Split your troops into two? How should he divide it? Who's going with whom? "
The tactic that Li Xin spoke of was not something that he came up with himself, but the result of a discussion with the Generals s under him. Hearing Tang Yin's question, he leisurely said. "Amongst us five armies, Feng Army and the brothers Zhen Jun have the highest combat power. I think Feng Army and Yu Army are still the same as before. The An, Huan, and Zhen armies are still on the same path; the former takes Huaning, the latter takes the city, and the two armies' fighting strength is the same. Taking down these two cities should also be an easy task. "
Tang Yin did not answer right away. Instead, he looked down and stared at the map, his finger constantly pointing at it.
Although the troops of the Feng and Yu armies were small, their Huaning was still weaker than that of Tong Cheng's. Li Xin had clearly thought over this carefully.
He thought it would work, but the other Chastity Army generals were anxious. Others might not know the true strength of the two armies, but they knew it like the back of their hands and had fought with them before. The soldiers of the two armies all looked impressive, but in reality, they were not even able to withstand a single blow.
Unfortunately, the Chastity Army didn't have a monarch speaking up for them, so they could only fight for it on their own.
Kong Qing took a deep breath and was about to voice his opposition, but at this time, the Pingyuan Army Commander Xiao Muqing spoke out first, "We need to split our forces into two sides, to take out Huaning and the city.
Although Li Xin was valiant and extraordinary, he was not broad-minded. Hearing that Xiao Muqing had mercilessly rejected his tactic, his face immediately darkened as he sneered and asked in a strange tone, "Oh? That means the General Xiao has a better strategy to defeat the enemy? "
In Xiao Muqing's eyes, other than Tang Yin, who was the ruler of a country, there was no one else who could stand up to him.2
He smiled slightly and said: "Rather than splitting up our forces, it would be better to attack a city together, regardless of striking down Huaning or clearing up the city, we can obtain the Xi Tang afterwards. Of course, this is just a bluff, the goal is to attract the Chastity Army from another city to come and help us, as long as they leave the city, I can immediately kill them and bring them out of the city!"
Tang Yin listened and nodded his head. He felt that Xiao Muqing's tactics were much more reliable than Li Xin's.
With their million strong army, be it fighting Huaning or clearing the city, they could easily take down this city. If they split up their forces to take over these two cities, the battle might not be easy.
Li Xin was unconvinced. "What if the other city does not send reinforcements?"
Xiao Muqing laughed, and said: "If that's the case, then it's even simpler, our attack can become a real battle, and we can take down the Xi Tang in one go!"
"But ?" Li Xin still wanted to argue, but at this time, Yue Ze heard that Xiao Muqing's tactics were more plausible. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Little brother Li, we are the king, let the generals handle trivial matters such as arranging troops, arranging troops, and fighting battles, why must we interfere?"
"That's right!" Ling Shuang also spoke up in a low voice: "Elder Royal Brother Yue is right, we can't argue over these generals who are used to war!"
Yue Ze and Ling Shuang's persuasion allowed Li Xin to have a way out of the stage. He pretended to be unconcerned and shrugged his shoulders, then said: "Royal Brother, Sister Wang, you're right." While he was speaking, he looked at Tang Yin and asked, "What do you think, Younger Royal Brother Tang?"
Tang Yin casually replied: "Let's just follow Muqing's tactics! Our army will obtain Huaning first, then advance towards Xi Tang. If the Chastity Army from Tong Cheng city save us, we will turn around and attack, and if not, we will take the opportunity to take over our Xi Tang! "
"Good!" Since Younger Royal Brother Tang agrees, then it's decided. " Li Xin nodded.
"One more thing." Yue Ze opened his mouth and said: "Everyone heard, right? The Chuan Country And Mo Country Second Army has already destroyed the Chastity Army in the Stone Horse County, and they are currently advancing towards the Xi Tang as well!"
"Humph!" Li Xin laughed coldly and said: "I did! If it weren't for the fact that the Chuan Country And Mo Country transferred the four hundred thousand troops stationed here into the Zhen Country, how could they possibly have broken through the army of chastity? "
The battle between Allied Army of Chuan Country And Mo Country and the Zhen Country in the Stone Horse County was extremely intense. Both sides originally had four hundred thousand opponents fighting each other, but after the addition of the Zhen Country's local army, the balance of victory began to tilt in the direction of the Chastity Army.
In a situation of helplessness, the Chuan Mo Alliance had no choice but to hastily transfer their own two hundred thousand reserve troops to alleviate the current precarious situation. With the participation of Chuan Mo's total 400,000 reserve troops, the Chuan Mo Alliance once again had an overwhelming advantage. The two sides engaged in a decisive battle in front of each other in Ishima County. This battle lasted for five full days. The Chastity Army was defeated, and the Chuan Mo Army emerged victorious.
The battle was intense and the scale was huge. The total number of casualties on both sides was more than four hundred thousand. The entire battlefield stretched for dozens of miles. Corpses piled up like mountains, and blood flowed like rivers.
Even the commander of Zhen Country, Tian Huanyu, had died a terrible death in the midst of the battle.
After this battle, with Tian Huaiyu leading the four hundred thousand Zhen Country s and two hundred thousand local army, all of them collapsed and suffered heavy casualties.
In the following westward journey, the chastity army who had their strength greatly weakened could no longer effectively block them, as they had always been pursued and beaten up by the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Mo Country. Now, the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Mo Country had already passed through the Stone Horse County and entered the Linqiao County, so as long as they passed through the Linqiao County, they could still go straight for the Xi Tang.
