Chapter 169: Battle of Pingnan (Part 1) (2)

Yue Peng frowned and said, "Even if he is prepared, we will fight with them. At that time, as long as the defenders in Pingnan County attack and attack the head and tail of the Yuan army with us, we may not have no chance of winning."

"hehe."

Zhao Dongting laughed and said, "Your head-on fighting style is not good. If Jesul thought that our army would plan to attack the city with a small amount of troops, the army would be guarding us, or the commanding camp to take charge of the central army, commanding the troops and the Xingguo Army at the same time. Judging from the strength of both sides, not to mention whether we can win, even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses. At that time, we will no longer be able to compete with the Yuan army in Guangxi, and we will lose all the money."

His military books these days are not in vain.

When Yue Peng heard this, his face changed slightly and he stopped talking.

Zhao Dongting glanced at the generals in the account and said, "The military strategy is right to wait for the enemy and win with strange things. If we want to win this battle with the smallest loss, the most appropriate way is to capture the chief general of the Yuan army, Jesul. As long as Jesul is captured, the heroes of the Yuan army will be without a leader, and then it will be much easier to deal with them. Please think about it, how can we capture Jesul or kill Jesul?"

Yue Peng, Donghe, Zhang Xi and others pondered and thought.

Zhao Dongting was also thinking in his heart, only in this way can he get the opportunity to get close to Jesul.

In such a siege, the generals were most likely to be in the rear and command the entire army. But if he already knew the whereabouts of the Song army, he would inevitably not be able to use the tricks and ask you to get into the trap.

What we need to do now is to make Jesul confident that they will not attack the rear army's commander camp directly.

Suddenly, a bright light shone in Zhao Dongting's eyes.

He came up with a good idea.

Just as he was about to speak, Su Quandang said, "Master, why don't we make a fuss to attack the world?"

Zhao Dongting was slightly surprised because Su Quandang had actually gone with him, and he immediately smiled and said, "Pretending to save the city, is it actually a surprise attack?"

Su Quandang was also a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhao Dongting knew his plan just now, and nodded and said, "It is precisely that the Jesur army gathered at the north gate of the county town. Our army can pretend to want to enter the city from the east gate to assist in the defense, and then use small groups of soldiers to attack Jesur's command camp to capture the thief and king, and the Yuan army will be defeated."

Dongheli heard Su Quandang's words next to him and said in confusion: "Can Najisul sit down and watch us enter the city?"

Su Quandang chuckled and said, "Whether he let us enter the city or not, we can take the lead. If we can get under the city, we can use the emperor's dragon cannon to attack their military formation. At that time, the Yuan army will be in a panic. Xingguo army will attack the left wing of the Yuan thief, and they will attack the front of the Yuan thief. In this situation, Jesul will have to command the overall situation. Just wait for the drum to sound, the position of their commander camp will be exposed."

Dongheli asked again: "What if he led his army to block us before we could even stand in the south?"

"hey-hey."

Su Quandang's eyes showed a cunning look, "If Jesul wants to seize the city, how many troops can he mobilize to stop us? With the emperor's dragon cannon, as long as he can block the army of no more than 20,000, we can swallow them up. Without these 20,000 troops, Jesul's troops will have no advantage. If we do not abandon the city, we will only be able to gradually erode them!"

"Um!"

Zhao Dongting gently patted the sand table and said, "Then let's deploy according to General Su's method."

His eyes swept through the generals in the account again, "In a surprise attack, elite soldiers must be used. Which general is willing to lead the Feilong Army to attack the Yuan Thief Commander's Camp?"

"I'm willing to go!"

"I'm willing to go!"

Unexpectedly, when he said this, Zhang Xizai, Zhang Hongwei, and even Zhao Da and Zhao Hu came from the scene.

The Southern Song Dynasty is now full of morale.

"good."

Zhao Dongting thought for a while and said, "Then Zhao Da and Zhao Hu led the Feilong Army to follow me to take an opportunity to attack the Yuan bandit commander camp, and the rest of the army and horses will be coordinated and mobilized by General Su."

"ah?"

All the generals were stunned, and Su Quandang said anxiously: "Master, it's too dangerous to attack the general camp. You can't go."

Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "Where is not dangerous in war? I will also fight with the Yuan thieves with the army. Even if I wait here, who would dare to predict that the Yuan thieves would not come to attack our commanding camp?"

Su Quandang remained silent.

Zhao Dongting said again: "Just wait for you and the Yuan army to rush forward and attack the general camp, we will be much safer."

He wanted to go so much, but he was actually worried that Zhao Da and Zhao Hu were not cautious enough. The surprise attack on the Jassur's camp should not allow the Yuan army scout to find any trace, otherwise the surprise attack would only turn into a death sentence.

Although the generals did not want Zhao Dongting to take risks, they did not know what to say.

He is right, there is no absolute security in war.

On this night, Zhao Dongting brought Le Wuqian, Zhao Da and Zhao Hu, led 800 flying dragon soldiers to stay at Yeli and continue to approach Pingnan County.

Wen Qi was familiar with the terrain of this area and followed this team.

When it was lightly dawn, they stopped marching and rested in the depths of the mountains, only more than ten miles away from the Yuan army camp.

Su Quandang also led his army to set off, but flags were waving, and he was moving at a rapid speed along the Xun River, no longer hiding, and there was a momentum to rescue the city quickly.

All the generals of the army were solemn, because even if they had good plans, no one dared to say that they would win.

War is changeable, and it is very likely that some subtle accident will cause earth-shaking changes in the entire battle situation.

The Yuan army camped for more than ten miles outside the city from north to south.

The Jasur Commander Camp is located in the center of the military camp, and at this time there are many Yuan army generals gathered in the tent.

A scout hurried to the tent and reported: "General, more than 20,000 Song troops are coming to Pingnan on the east bank of the river in Pingnan County. You can see the personal military flag of the guards, the imperial guard flag in front of the hall, and... there is a stick on the flag, but it is impossible to tell which military horse it is."

"oh?"

Jesul, who was sitting in front of the desk in the inner side of the coach camp, was slightly surprised, "They actually plan to save the city quickly?"

Indeed, two days ago, their inquiry found traces of Zhao Dongting leading his army to Pingnan.

Jesul had originally expected that the Song army would be only more than 20,000, so he would not choose to fight hard. The most likely only was the surprise attack on their rear army. Now he heard the scouts say that the Song army actually gave up seclusion and rushed to Pingnan East Gate, which was naturally unexpected.

"hehe."

Then, Jesul chuckled again, "It seems that the Song army was able to capture Wujin was not due to luck. There are capable people in their army!"
