Qiuchi and Dayue Kingdom did not attack again, but chose to cook.
Right under their noses.
Seeing the enemy so arrogant, Qin Qihu was the first one who couldn't hold back, "Brother, the enemy simply doesn't take us seriously! Do you want me to lead the Blood Clothes Army and take advantage of the opportunity when they are cooking to charge and kill them?"
"The enemy is waiting for us to charge and kill them!"
Yun Zheng shook his head slightly, and reminded Qin Qihu solemnly: "I remind you again, the Blood-Cloaked Army must not act without authorization! Now, hide the Blood-Cloaked Army well! When it's time to send out the Blood-Cloaked Army, you will have to fight!"
He has been hiding the Blood Shirt Army.
The Blood-Clothed Army is his trump card and cannot be exposed to the enemy so early.
Once the Blood-Clothed Army goes into battle, they will either inflict heavy losses on the enemy, or reverse the situation on the battlefield, or even secure victory in one fell swoop.
Before this, he was worried that the soldiers who raided the enemy army would fall into the hands of the enemy and would not be able to withstand the torture and would tell others about the Bloody Shirt Army.
That's why he ordered Qin Qihu and Deng Bao to launch a feint attack.
...
...
Otherwise, how could he not seize the previous opportunity to consume some of Qiuchi's troops and show Qiuchi a warning first?
Facing Yun Zheng's extremely serious gaze, Qin Qihu couldn't help but laugh dryly, "I remember your instructions. Am I itching to do something?"
"Itchy hands, easy!"
Yun Zheng smiled, "If you really want to do it, I can allocate 300 guards to you and let you go to the two wings to participate in the battle! Specialized in killing the enemy's fierce generals."
"well!"
Qin Qihu agreed repeatedly and said carelessly: "As long as I don't have to watch the fun, it's fine!"
“…”
Looking at Qin Qihu's appearance, Yun Zheng couldn't help but smile helplessly.
This guy is such a warmonger!
With a powerful enemy at the doorstep, is he still afraid that he won't have a battle to fight?
This guy is born to be a brave warrior.
I don't know how much effort it will take to train him into a capable general.
Later, Qiuchi and Dayue attacked their wings again.
The troops in front of them also pressed forward.
However, the enemy troops stopped when they were about 200 feet away from their defense line.
It seemed that there was no intention of attacking at all.
The enemy's actions immediately left Yun Zheng a little confused.
What is the enemy trying to do?
Could it be that you want to delay it until night and launch a night attack?
But they are relying on sections of city walls for defense, so a night attack by the enemy wouldn't make much sense, right?
How strange!
What exactly is the enemy commander up to?
Seeing that the enemy had no plans to attack, Yun Zheng could only order the soldiers from all units to be on high alert and take turns to rest.
Since the enemy is not in a hurry, they certainly can't be in a hurry either.
Yun Zheng would take out his clairvoyance every once in a while to observe the enemy's activities.
At this distance, through clairvoyance, you can clearly see the enemy's every move.
However, there seemed to be nothing unusual in the enemy's ranks.
Some soldiers were just lying on the ground to rest, some were wiping their weapons, and some were on high alert, guarding against any sudden attack from them.
It was obvious that the enemy was bound to attack.
Judging from the enemy's posture, it is more likely that they will attack after dark.
Putting down his clairvoyance, Yun Zheng began to think again. If he and the enemy commander were to switch positions, how would he be able to break through the enemy's defense line with the least casualties possible?
What advantages could the enemy gain by attacking at night?
Just as Yun Zheng was thinking secretly, Tong Gang and Deng Bao came over together.
"Your Highness, the enemy doesn't have many people. Should we take the initiative to attack?"
Deng Bao's eyes flashed with fighting spirit, and he analyzed to himself: "The enemy's camp is still five or six miles away, and the troops they have deployed on the front line are no more than 30,000. If we take the initiative to attack, we will have a chance to eat up these 30,000 people!"
"nonsense!"
Yun Zheng glared at Deng Bao unhappily, "I am 100% sure that I can defeat these 30,000 enemy troops! But if we defeat these 30,000 enemy troops, how many of us will be left?"
It is not difficult to defeat these 30,000 enemy troops.
Yun Zheng was even confident that he could keep his own casualties to less than half of the enemy's.
But they only have so many people, and it would definitely not be worthwhile to exchange personnel with the enemy.
Even if one of them could be exchanged for three enemy soldiers, he felt it was not worth it!
Unless you exchange it for the vassal army!
If we use their elite troops to exchange for it, it would be a huge loss.
Facing Yun Zheng's gaze, Deng Bao couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
Tong Gang smiled at Deng Bao and asked tentatively, "Your Highness, if we lead a group of elite cavalry to attack the enemy camp, we should have a chance to burn their food supplies, right?"
“There is a chance.”
Yun Zheng did not deny this, "But similarly, the people we sent to burn the enemy's food supplies may also end up being wiped out!"
If you want to burn the enemy's food supplies, you must break through the enemy's cavalry in front of you.
As soon as they move, the cavalry from the enemy camp will surely rush forward first, and the camp in the rear will also be well prepared for defense.
Even if he sent out all of Deng Bao's troops and the 5,000 cavalry left by Feng Yu, he might not be able to break through the enemy's layers of defense in one fell swoop.
Even if they really succeeded in burning the enemy's food supplies, there would probably be only a few of the 15,000 elite cavalry left.
Burning food and grass is indeed a tried and tested method.
But we must also consider the actual situation, and more importantly, our own casualties.
Faced with the problems pointed out by Yun Zheng, Tong Gang was suddenly speechless.
"Okay, don't even think about taking the initiative yet."
Yun Zheng extinguished their thoughts and said, "If you have the time, you might as well think about how to attack if you were the enemy's commander!"
Listening to Yun Zheng's words, the two couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
How to attack?
Is there any better way besides brute force?
They were thinking, and Yun Zheng was also thinking.
As he was thinking, Yun Zheng's heart suddenly moved, and he picked up the clairvoyance again and began to carefully observe the situation in the enemy's formation.
As the clairvoyance continued to move, Yun Zheng finally locked onto the soldiers behind the enemy's formation.
Those soldiers are collecting hay!
In an instant, Yun Zheng confirmed his guess.
Fire horse charges!
No wonder the enemy waited to attack at night!
It turns out that he is waiting for them here!
The enemy commander is quite smart.
In this situation, using fire horses to charge the formation can minimize their casualties as much as possible and also cause some chaos to the Northern Palace Army.
As long as the Northern Army is in chaos, the enemy can quickly rush in through various gaps at such a short distance.
Damn it!
This is to use your own methods to deal with yourself!
Fortunately, I thought of this.
If the enemy really rushed in with this kind of tactics, I would be so angry that I would vomit blood.
"The enemy should be charging with their fire horses!"
Yun Zheng put down his clairvoyance and looked at Tong Gang and Deng Bao, "Now you can think about how to break the enemy's plan! It would be best if we can make the enemy suffer the consequences of their own actions!"
