Chapter 325 The King's Ci's Strategies

"My lord, the Guanlong army captured Jiang'an County, Nanping County did not send troops, and the whole city is under martial law." Liu Cheng reported to the king.

"Hmm." Junci replied lightly, everything was within her expectation.

"Five thousand Guanlong troops gathered in Zhijiang City, and they are going to Yidu to support Songzi City." Liu Cheng continued to report, "Qin Commander has followed the general's order and is not allowed to enter or leave the city."

Not long after the Guanlong Army set off, Qin Xiao arrived at Zhijiang City. Without the governor of Lu, Zhijiang City was recaptured by the emperor. Naturally, the Central Guards had the final say. Qin Xiao closed the city gates on the grounds of war and did not allow people to enter or leave. city.

Naturally, they would not open the city gates to the Guan Long army.

"Understood." Junci responded flatly.

Liu Cheng could only ask: "General, what shall we do next?"

"It's enough to defend the city." Jun Ciyun lightly ordered, "For these two days, order the whole army to recharge their batteries."

Two more days?

Liu Cheng didn't ask, and silently retreated to make arrangements.

Unlike Jun Ciping, Zhou Guang laughed out loud when he heard Xu Meng leading troops to attack Nanping County: "Xu Meng, you didn't let me down."

"General, the Southern Dynasty has no tendency to retreat." The subordinate reminded in a low voice.

"No hurry, they won't last long." Zhou Guang's stubble-covered lips evoked a joyful smile, "Order the whole army to prepare and stand by at any time, and go out of the city to kill the enemy!"

Now that Jiang'an County fell and Nanping County did not send troops, Nanping County's attitude is already obvious, that is, to defend Nanping County.

Xu Meng will definitely not insist on attacking the city, and will soon come from the rear. He wants to cooperate with Xu Meng inside and out, and fight Liu Zong!
For this reason, Zhou Guang ordered to increase the food, so that the whole army can have a full meal!
Xu Meng stood guard at the city gate of Nanping County. On the gate, the catapults and archers were on standby, and the cold arrows glowed bloodthirsty.

Frightening them not to go one step further, he single-handedly went forward to declare war, but Nanping County ignored it.

With less than 5000 people, he really couldn't attack the city. Every time a group of people were lost, it would be more dangerous for them.

"The whole army rests for half an hour. Let's go back to Songzi City and rescue the general!"

Half an hour later, Xu Meng led his troops back to assist Songzi City, and the city guard in Nanping County immediately went down to report: "My lord, the Guanlong Army of the Northern Dynasty is attacking Songzi City."

"Okay, order troops immediately!" Nanping County not only has the sheriff, but also the governor of Jingzhou who controls the state's soldiers and horses.

Jingzhou originally belonged to the Southern Dynasty, but now it is divided into two, and one-third of the territory was forcibly taken away by the Northern Dynasty. Historically, the residence of the governor of Jingzhou was in Nanjun City, but he had to guard it in Nanping County. He had long wanted to take back his territory with his own hands.

This time, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The reason why he stood still made Xu Meng think that he only wanted to defend Nanping County, and that he was waiting for Xu Meng and Zhou Guang to encircle Liu Zong's [-] army and fight to the death before he reaped the benefits!
Nanping County has 8000 soldiers and horses. Liu Zong took away [-] Xiangxi troops, plus [-] Song Po troops, about [-] troops.

The governor of Jingzhou left [-] to guard the city, he took [-] away, and waited for more than an hour after Xu Meng left before setting off.

Xu Meng kept his scouts while walking forward, just to guard against Nanping County's move, but the governor of Jingzhou was patient enough to keep the distance extremely far.

It was too close, he watched Liu Zong being besieged, should he save him or not?

Naturally, we have to wait for them to fight hard before sending troops.

On the other hand, after Junci heard that Xu Meng had led his troops back to aid and had joined forces with Zhou Guang to encircle and suppress Liu Zong, Jun Ci remained motionless.

She was sitting on the main seat, with her sword in her hand, she was gently wiping the blade of the sword with deerskin, a beam of silver light reflected on her face, her expressionless face was calm and pretentious.

"General, aren't we going yet?" Liu Cheng didn't question Junci, but he didn't understand why Junci was still calm at this moment.

Xu Meng and Zhou Guang have joined forces to encircle and suppress Liu Zong. There is indeed a huge difference in military strength, but the Guanlong Army has a geographical advantage. No matter what, the winner will be determined in one day and one night. Although the news has just come, it took time on the road.

They set off at this moment and arrived at Songzi City at dawn, and the battle between the two armies was almost over.

"No hurry." After wiping the blade, Junci changed the cotton cloth and dipped some sword oil on it, spreading it evenly, "When will the Guanlong army from the rear arrive in Yidu?"

"Should be able to arrive tonight." The mention of Liucheng made him even more puzzled.

Jun Ci sent Qin Xiao to Zhijiang City. He thought it was purely to stop Guan Long's army, but after only blocking for a day and a half, Qin Xiao opened the city gate when Guan Long's army was impatient and couldn't help but want to attack, and let them enter Zhijiang City.

If you enter Zhijiang City at noon, you will definitely arrive at Yidu tonight.

"When they arrive, they will let people in. If they want to leave the city, there is no need to stop them." Jun Ci oiled the sword lovingly, and ordered without haste.

"promise!"

Liu Cheng scratched his heart and lungs, and after following Jun Ci's instructions, he couldn't help but went to find Huo Qingqu, he was too impatient to know the cause and effect.

Huo Qingqu was much smarter than them. After hearing Liu Cheng's words, he pondered for a long time before he said: "The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind. The general always likes to be the eagle that hunts the oriole."

After such a bit of dialing, Liu Cheng also suddenly realized: "There are still people lurking behind Zhou Guang and Liu Zong."

Zhou Guang and Liu Zong are praying mantises or cicadas, while the oriole is...

"Inspector of Jingzhou!" Liu Cheng wanted to understand everything thoroughly, his eyes lit up, and he sighed in admiration, "The general is indeed so talented!"

She tried her best to divide the Long Army of Nanjun Chengguan into two in order to promote such a situation that is beneficial to them, and she counted everyone's thoughts.

As long as Xu Meng leads an army of [-] troops across Jiang'an County to Nanping County, he probably won't be in a hurry to return to Songzi City, and it is very likely that he will storm Nanping County.

Even if Xu Meng still chooses to return to Songzi City in the end, his 3 army, plus Zhou Guang's [-] army, and Liu Zong's [-] people, [-] are Song Po's people. With the tacit understanding between Zhou Guang and Xu Meng, who are formidable enemies and occupying a favorable location, this war will soon end.

Now Xu Meng is leading 5000 people, working together with Zhou Guang, with the disparity in combat power, it is not easy to win.

Followed by a Jingzhou governor with evil intentions, Jingzhou governor waited for the two armies to fight, and when both sides were hurt, he could easily take Songzi City, and he could take the credit of personally capturing Songzi City, and pretended to be Liu Zong's life-saving benefactor.

However, the governor of Jingzhou might not have expected that Zhou Guang's other five thousand Guanlong troops would also come.

The Great War will continue, and this is the real fight to the death.

The last profit is waiting to harvest their resignation!
"Liu Zong originally had an army of [-], and the Inspector of Jingzhou will lead the troops again. I'm afraid the disparity in strength between the two sides will be too large." Liu Cheng was still worried.

"It's true that they are many people, but their hearts are not in the same place." Huo Qingqu was not worried at all about being out of Junci's control.

Liu Zong dragged the 1-wing army and lost to Zhou Guang's [-] people. If the governor of Jingzhou joined him again, one army and three forces, no matter how many people there are, it would be meaningless.

There are few people in Zhou Guang, but he is the only one who obeys. The two sides are truly evenly matched!
