Chapter 142: Turning Side in the Battlefield
The subordinate said, "General, we have discussed this for many days and there is no problem with this deployment. The only problem is the Nanyang Army. If the Nanyang Army rebels, we will be in a passive position."
Ji Ping sighed deeply: "How could I not know? But our forces are too few."
This time he only had 100,000 men, while the Yilin Army was said to have 1 million men. Even if this number was exaggerated, it wouldn't be too much.
As for the Ningzhou Army, they were indeed brave, but their combat capabilities were really poor. To be frank, Ji Ping was confident that one of his Lu Family Army soldiers could defeat five Ningzhou Army soldiers, and if they were at the level of a squad leader, they could defeat ten of them.
Not to mention the Nanyang Army. The two sides have fought together, and Ji Ping looks down on the Nanyang Army, from top to bottom.
The soldier's combat effectiveness is not as good as his Lord Lu. Lord Lu is a civil servant, but he is not weak at all in training.
At this moment, Lu Chenyang sneezed, "It must be because I am too charming. Someone is thinking about me again."
Therefore, we have to rely on them to fight against the Yilin Army. They have already tied down the Yilin Army and really don't have too many troops to defend against the Nanyang Army.
Ji Ping pondered for a moment and said, "Send scouts out to meet the coach and see where they are."
The deputy general understood that this was the hope that reinforcements would arrive so that they could launch a general attack together and they wouldn't have to worry about the Nanyang Army making any small moves.
The deputy general immediately sent soldiers to meet Yan Xing from several directions.
Ji Ping sighed, "I hope it's not too late."
If Yan Xing arrived with reinforcements and they launched a general attack, he would be 80% sure that they could successfully capture Ningzhou.
If Yan Xing wasn't there, the situation would be very uncertain.
The battlefield changes rapidly, and it is impossible for everything to go according to his plan.
The scouts sent out had no news yet, but the Yilin army attacked the city again. After several battles, the Ningzhou army suffered heavy losses.
Liu Yi was getting a little restless. He was old, but not stupid. If the Ningzhou army continued to deplete, not to mention the Yilin army, he was afraid that the Prince of Nanyang and Lu Chenyang would divide up his Ningzhou.
Therefore, Liu Yi hoped to repel the Yilin Army as soon as possible so that the Ningzhou Army could retain its combat effectiveness. The Yilin Army was a jackal, the King of Nanyang and Lu Chenyang were tigers and leopards, and his Ningzhou was a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Liu Yi said he was trembling.
Liu Yi came to urge him, and Zhang Zhi also came to urge him.
Ji Ping had no choice but to agree to start the general attack plan.
The general offensive began smoothly, with the Lu family army fighting bravely. Ji Ping, a master of military strategy, invested a large amount of supplies and equipment, tying down most of the main force of the Yilin Army to the greatest extent possible, causing heavy losses to the Yilin Army.
The Yilin Army could not hold out and finally ordered a retreat.
Ji Ping had already arranged their escape route, leaving a way for them to retreat. The road they were retreating on was guarded by the Nanyang Army, and as long as they went that way, they would run into the Nanyang Army.
As for how many enemies the Nanyang Army can destroy, that is the Nanyang Army's business.
Ji Ping did not order any further pursuit.
However, when Ji Ping looked at the speed of the Yilin Army's retreat, he clearly felt that something was wrong. They were retreating too fast.
It was obvious that he was not blocked at all and escaped unhindered!
Ji Ping gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Zhi!"
Zhang Zhi still tricked them and let the Yilin Army escape!
Ji Ping gnashed his teeth in anger. The Yilin Army was made up of ordinary people. If they raised their arms and called on the people who couldn't make a living to join them, the Yilin Army could revive at any time.
It means they fought in vain!
Ji Ping has never felt so breath-suffocating before!
Suddenly someone shouted, "General! It's the Nanyang Army, they're attacking us."
Ji Ping was shocked and felt a chill in his heart.
The Nanyang Army also had this idea in mind, hoping to reap the benefits!
Without time to think, Ji Ping immediately shouted: "Set up the formation! Repel the enemy!"
Ji Ping stared at the battlefield in front of him with a gloomy look. Lu Chenyang wanted to occupy Ningzhou, and he absolutely, absolutely had to help him hold it! He wanted to contribute to Lu Chenyang's future great cause!
No one can stand in the way of Lord Lu!
Zhang Zhi didn't expect that the Lu family army still had such combat effectiveness after just having a big battle with the Yilin army.
He frowned deeply and ordered, "We must wipe out the Lu family army! Once we've wiped out the Lu family army, I'll report back to everyone for the credit!"
That's a nice thing to say, but that's the Lu family army. The Lu family army is well-equipped with weapons!
The weapons in the hands of the Lu family army are the best among the Yilin Army, Nanyang Army, and Ningzhou Army, and can even be said to be the best among all the armies in Dagan.
On the battlefield, the difference between having weapons and not having them is huge. What's even more insane is that the Lu family army not only has weapons, but also armor, and almost everyone has it!
