MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 320 The whereabouts of the enemy (plus more)

  Bai Qingzhi handed over the command of the frontal battlefield to one of his lieutenants, and then personally led the guards to the left city wall.

   Sure enough, from the left city wall, he clearly saw the Hu soldiers who were holding torches and trying to cross the mountains and enter the hinterland of the Central Plains.

   "These sons of a bitch!" After seeing the marching route of those Hu soldiers, Bai Qingzhi couldn't hold back his curse.

why?

  Because these Hu soldiers, the route they took happened to be on the edge of the range of Juyongguan soldiers. If the Dingbei Army in Juyongguan did not leave the city, these Hu soldiers would not have to worry about being shot by random arrows at all.

   On the contrary, if the soldiers of the Dingbei Army in Juyongguan go out to pursue them, these barbarians can quickly get into the depths of the mountains and forests.

  They carry torches with them. If they get into the woods, it is more convenient to follow the road than the North Army, and it is not easy to step on the air. The second thing is to use the torches to hit the east and west, or even simply use the dead grass and leaves in the mountains to set fire.

  If they lure the enemy deep, and then risk their lives to ignite the vegetation in the mountains, the Dingbei Army in charge of the pursuit will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

   If one fails, even Juyongguan and surrounding villages will be engulfed by wildfires.

   Even so, the Dingbei Army can't just leave these Hu soldiers alone.

  If they are really allowed to enter the hinterland of the Central Plains close to the edge of Juyongguan, the people in the northern border who live on the other side of Juyongguan will be in great trouble.

  He immediately ordered his guards, "Send an order to General Gu, ordering him to take 3,000 soldiers and horses out of the south gate immediately, and then quickly go to the exit of the mountain to intercept these Hu soldiers who are climbing the mountain."

   You can’t search and intercept directly in the mountains, so let them go to the mountain pass. Anyway, the Dingbei Army must not send these guys to the northern border to burn, kill and loot.

  The personal guard responded "Yes" and ran out to send the order. Yang Xiaotao, who happened to be fighting the enemy next to General Gu, heard it, and immediately grabbed him, and ordered him to write notes and catch pigeons.

They brought the pigeons to the northern border this time, and the note was written for Ye Anlan. Yang Xiaotao did this because firstly, she wanted Ye Anlan to be able to grasp the progress of the war here as soon as possible, and secondly, she also hoped that Ye Anlan could By the way, help those Dingbei Army soldiers who are going to intercept and kill the Fanshan Huren.

   After finishing this task, she rejoined the fierce battle in front of her.

  The siege equipment that has been repaired, she mustered all her strength and kept throwing boulders or rolling logs down.

   Those boulders and rolling logs that others need to move in groups of several people or with the help of tools, she can easily throw them under the city wall just by embracing her hands.

As for those barbarian archers who came prepared to target Yang Xiaotao, Yang Xiaotao said that it was great to have practiced lightness kung fu. Even if she was targeted by several archers who were sitting on the sidelines at the same time, she would still be able to take risks every time. barely avoided.

In addition, there are quite a few of Ye's personal guards around her. These people know that Yang Xiaotao, as the person who threatens the Hu people the most on the battlefield, will definitely become the person who is second only to Bai Qingzhi and the most likely to be targeted by the Hu people, so They specially dispatched a few people to guard Yang Xiaotao's side to help her defend against the barbarian's swords and arrows.

  Especially those barbarians who had already climbed the city wall, Yang Xiaotao was never approached by them once.

  ＊＊＊

  Juyongguan Pass was raging with war, and outside Youzhou City inside the pass, Ye Anlan received the carrier pigeon from Yang Xiaotao at dawn.

  Untied the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and asked someone to take the pigeon down to feed and water. Ye Anlan took out the small note in the bamboo tube, and quickly scanned it at ten lines at a glance.

   "Ah Jing, something happened." Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Li Jing who came out of the tent next door, and Ye Anlan handed over the small note, "The barbarians sent another group of soldiers to cross the mountain and enter the pass."

  Li Jing frowned slightly, "If you go over the mountain, is there a entrance for them to enter the northern border, right in front of us on the left?"

  Ye Anlan nodded, "It seems that we have to be more vigilant."

  Although there are only two thousand barbarians in the area, they should not have the guts to attack their tens of thousands of transport convoy head-on, but if the other party looks for an opportunity to set fire or something, they will still be in trouble.

Li Jing frowned and thought for a moment, "From here to Juyongguan, we have to pass through two canyons and a stone bridge. In terms of time, the other party has time to set up an ambush in the last canyon, or directly destroy the stone bridge. If this is the case, we are afraid It is very difficult to send supplies to Juyongguan in time.”

  Ye Anlan hurriedly pulled out the map, "It's true! No, we can't let them do it first!"

  Li Jing: ...He knew right away that this girl is going to act alone again (_)

  He asked knowingly, "You want to block them at the exit of the mountain in advance?"

Ye Anlan nodded, "They entered the mountain from the west side, if they want to bypass the Dingbei Army guarding the west side and transfer to the east side to leave the mountain, then they must take a detour, that is to say, we have the advantage in terms of time. "

Because she has been to Juyongguan once, Ye Anlan has a good understanding of the topography there. She pointed to the dark line on the map leading to the location of Juyongguan, "This road is rugged, and there are high mountains on both sides. In the dense forest, the Dingbei Army will not send people to guard this road, so as long as you are careful, the Hu people can sneak across this road from the place where the Juyongguan defenders can't see, from the west to the east. , to perfectly avoid the Dingbei Army guarding the mountain pass on the west side."

  Li Jing said: "Maybe the Northern Army should have sent people to guard the mountain pass in the east for a long time?"

"Not at all." Ye Anlan broke Li Jing's beautiful fantasy, "The mountain exit we are talking about is actually not a narrow exit, but a relatively flat hillside. Such a large area, Dingbei Army At least 5,000 soldiers have to be sent there to take care of every part of the mountain pass with eyes.”

   One side is five thousand, and two sides is ten thousand. Where did the Dingbei Army have so many people waiting there?

   Not to mention that this is just "watching", watching and blocking, these are two completely different concepts.

  If the Dingbei Army really only sent 5,000 people to guard, then there is a high probability that they will be concentrated and break through because of too scattered troops, and then fall into an embarrassing situation where they can be seen but cannot be stopped.

  Considering the cost-effectiveness, the Dingbei Army only set up three watchtowers in these two places, and then dispatched less than a hundred people every day to guard the six watchtowers on both sides of Juyongguan.

  Once there is an urgent military situation, the Dingbei Army soldiers guarding the watchtower will light the beacon to notify their other comrades.

  Although this method is difficult to prevent small groups of Hu people from sneaking in, at least, a team of more than 500 Hu people cannot enter quietly without alerting the Dingbei Army on the watchtower.

  Ye Anlan told Li Jing concisely the information she got from Bai Qingzhi and Bai Ruiwen.

  Li Jing pondered for a while when he heard the words, "Since that's the case, why don't we ask General Song Weisong to come over."
