Chapter 848 Meng Zhang’s plan for Daqian!
Facing Nangong Tianxia in that state, and the Lei Ze Dragon Riders who were surrounding him with a covetous look in their eyes.
Li Cunxiao really didn't dare to guarantee that he could take over Nangong Tianxia under such circumstances.
Upon hearing this, Meng Zhang looked up at Li Cunxiao, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then turned into a gentle smile.
"Cunxiao, why do you have to do this? On the battlefield, victory and defeat are commonplace. Our Yellow Turban Army's Taiping Guards, and even your Highness' Luowang, have long since discovered that Nangong Tianxia once used this Life-burning Secret Technique, which was even able to suppress the former number one on the World Ranking."
"You were able to force Nangong Tianxia to use his Life-burning Skill again, which is already remarkable. It proves that your bravery is no less than that of the former number one on the World Ranking. This should be a happy event, why are you so depressed?"
"Besides, when did I ever say that I must take Qianyuan City today?"
He put down the battle report in his hand, stood up, helped Li Cunxiao up, and said with a smile.
"Commander-in-chief, Cunxiao knows that his martial arts skills are extraordinary, but he failed to achieve his expected goals, and he can't help but feel guilty."
Li Cunxiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he smiled bitterly.
"Cunxiao, ah Cunxiao, you look at the problem too one-sidedly. I, Meng Zhang, have always been unconventional in marching and fighting. Qianyuan City is just a chess piece in my plan."
"Do you know why I let the Yellow Turban Army besiege Qianyuan City instead of directly sending a large army to press forward and contain the attack?"
Meng Zhang patted Li Cunxiao on the shoulder and smiled.
Li Cunxiao shook his head, curiosity revealed in his eyes.
"Qianyuan City is located at the southern gate of Qianzhou and is an important barrier to the south of the Great Qian Dynasty."
"Therefore, the current Qianyuan City is more like a bait for me, Meng Zhang, and even the Yellow Turban Army. A bait that can continuously attract reinforcements from all sides of the Daqian Dynasty!"
Meng Zhang shook his head and said slowly.
"Look, behind Qianyuan City is a large plain and several important transportation routes. These are the routes that the reinforcements of the Daqian Dynasty must take."
"I deliberately let Qianyuan City remain in danger of being breached in order to lure the Daqian Dynasty to send reinforcements to try to rescue it."
At this point, Meng Zhang's eyes became flickering. He walked to the map, gently ran his finger across the terrain around Qianyuan City, and continued.
"And every time reinforcements arrive, it is an opportunity for our Yellow Turban Army to expand its victory."
"We don't need to attack Qianyuan City to death. We just need to besiege it and make it an isolated city. Even if Nangong Tianxia is brave, he can't resist the desperate situation of no reinforcements and no food and grass."
"Therefore, I have never taken the second place on the world's most powerful list seriously. As long as I want, I can trap him to death in Qianyuan City without any soldiers!"
Meng Zhang looked at Li Cunxiao who seemed to be thinking about something, and smiled slowly.
Although with Nangong Tianxia's strength, plus the Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry under his command, if he was determined to save his life and ignored the safety of Qiandu in the rear and simply abandoned the city and fled.
Relying on the impact of the heavy cavalry of the Lei Ze Dragon Riders, it was not so easy for Meng Zhang to stop him. But as Meng Zhang said, he was confident because he had learned about Nangong Tianxia through Taipingwei and even Luowang's intelligence organization.
The words loyalty and righteousness have been running through his life. He was promoted by the first two emperors of Daqian, and his loyalty to the Daqian royal family is engraved in his bones!
Therefore, as long as Nangong Tianxia, or the Daqian royal family in the rear can see the hope of defending Qianyuan City, Nangong Tianxia will not retreat!
As long as the Daqian court realized that Qianyuan City could be defended and did not order Nangong Tianxia to break out, Meng Zhang would be sure to trap him to death in Qianyuan City!
"General, are you planning to use Qianyuan City as bait to lure out the reinforcements from the Daqian Dynasty, and then annihilate them one by one?"
When Li Cunxiao heard this, a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly realized.
"That's right. Although war is raging in the Daqian Empire, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Daqian still has many soldiers and generals, but as long as we can continue to consume their manpower and weaken their strength, the final victory will belong to our Yellow Turban Army."
"It just so happens that Nangong Tianxia is a man who is brave but lacks wisdom. He thought that by defending Qianyuan City, he could stop my army from advancing northwards. However, he didn't know that this was exactly what I was planning."
Seeing that Li Cunxiao had come to his senses, Meng Zhang nodded and smiled.
After hearing this, Li Cunxiao silently glanced at Meng Zhang opposite him. He felt a sense of admiration for Meng Zhang in his heart and secretly sighed that this group of people were really dirty in their brains.
He obviously didn't expect that Meng Zhang actually had such a far-reaching plan, calculating every detail on the battlefield so accurately. He didn't even focus on this small Qianyuan County from the beginning, but used Qianyuan City to directly plan the entire Daqian Dynasty!
"This plan, Commander-in-Chief, is truly ingenious! Cunxiao is willing to be the vanguard and lead my three thousand Flying Tiger Cavalry to defeat the reinforcements of the Daqian Dynasty one by one!"
He glanced at Meng Zhang, then quickly lowered his head and bowed to Meng Zhang.
"Cunxiao, I know your bravery very well. But the key to this plan lies in patience and timing. We must not only annihilate the reinforcements, but also make the Daqian Dynasty feel heartbroken."
"Therefore, for the next battle, you don't need to rush, just wait quietly!"
Hearing this, Meng Zhang smiled slightly and patted Li Cunxiao on the shoulder.
"Now, all the Taiping Guards and Luowang demons in Qianzhou have taken action and are constantly monitoring the movements of the Daqian Dynasty."
"Once the Daqian Dynasty sends reinforcements, we will be able to respond quickly, intercept them on their way, and annihilate them one by one!"
"As for Nangong Tianxia in Qianyuan City, let him suffer slowly in this isolated city."
After saying that, Meng Zhang turned around and looked at the map. He ran his finger over several important roads behind Qianyuan City and said in a deep voice.
At the same time, under the night sky of Qiandu, the capital of Daqian, the moonlight was as clear as a wash, quietly sprinkling on every inch of land, covering this prosperous and undercurrent capital with a layer of mysterious silver gauze.
Outside the city, the tents of the Tiger Head Heavy Armored Battalion of Daqian's elite force were lined up in an endless stream, with lights on. Soldiers were either patrolling or resting, and the camp was in perfect order.
However, in this heavily guarded military camp, there was a man who quietly left the camp, like a ghost in the dark night, blending silently into the night of the city.
This person was the troublemaker who could be used by Yao Guangxiao before - Yin Jingyi, the commander of the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion, a general who came from a family of generals, looked heroic on the outside, but harbored endless brutality in his heart.
