After two days of delay in Guangchang, Han Hai had to admit that he could not defeat Guangchang. Although Guangchang's defenders were almost half-dead, these temporary resisters were far inferior to their troops in terms of tactical qualities and individual skills, they still defended for two days with sufficient weapons. Unfortunately, they had no time. Behind him, Wei Dongsheng's troops from Gaoyang were less than one day away from him. What is even more worrying is that another Northern Expedition Army from Yizhou City was only two days away from him. If they continued to fight here, they could not defeat Guangchang, but they would definitely surround these two armies in Guangchang.

When you go deep into the enemy's confidant place to fight, what you fear most is to be bound by the enemy to a city and a place. Once you cannot exert the combat mobility of the cavalry, you will not be far from destruction.

"Let's go!" Looking at the dilapidated low city wall in Guangchang, Han Hai lifted the reins of the horse and rode away in disappointment. Behind him, the Guangchang defenders cheered loudly.

Han Xiao's blood-filled face showed an expression of ecstasy expression. He threw away the knife in his hand, screamed and jumped. It's been two days. For him, these two days, he was wandering between life and death. On the first day, he relied on the young and strong men from various weapons workshops in Guangchang to block the enemy's attack, but the casualties were heavy. The next day, when he saw that the city was about to break through, the miners who were urgently recruited from the Guangchang mine arrived in time and again blocked the opponent outside the city.

After he survived, his opponent couldn't stand it anymore. Han Xiao was ecstatic and survived. It means that he was going to be promoted. Everyone knows the great significance of defending Guangchang to the Northern Army.

Two days later, Park Dem-meng and Wei Dongsheng appeared in Guangchang.

"Governor Han, I did a pretty job this time!" Park Dee slapped Han Xiao's shoulder hard. Guangchang was able to save him, which surprised him. "The governor will definitely have a heavy reward. I have sent someone to rush to Xingling to report the victory for you, brother."

"Thank you, General Park!" Han Xiao changed into the new official uniform and smiled. "This is the result of the efforts of Guangchang's military and civilians and their concerted efforts. General Park, this time Guangchang suffered heavy blood. More than 2,000 young and strong people died in battle alone, but finally they saved all the ordnance workshops here."

"Well, this is the most important thing!" Park Deok nodded violently. "There is a serious war ahead, and the weapons consumed. If Guangchang is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable. Although the enemy retreats now, the enemy cavalry is coming and going like the wind, and we still cannot relax our guard. I will leave you two thousand soldiers here, and you still need strong guard to prevent Han Hai from taking a back shot. That would be extremely happy and sad!"

"Yes. General Park, I won't be able to save you any trouble." Han Xiao nodded vigorously. He took the most difficult time, so he naturally would not be careless and would ruin the credit he received again.

Compared to Han Xiao's brilliant brilliance, Wei Dongsheng was like an eggplant beaten by frost. The five western counties suffered heavy losses. He, the Gaoyang garrison, must be responsible.

The three of them walked into the Guangchang garrison yamen. Park Dem-ming spread out the military map and saved Guangchang. The rest was to find a way to annihilate the enemy.

"It is obvious that this enemy army will not attack and guard Yan Mi's city. If Guangchang was not too important, they would not have come to make such an attempt. Besides, Guangchang's troops are too few, and it also gives the enemy this opportunity!" Park Deok smiled and said, "How could Han Hai have thought that a 500-man army would collapse here."

Han Xiao laughed proudly.

"If you can't defeat Guangchang, they will inevitably rush to the hinterland of Yizhou. The vast Yizhou Basin gave them extremely favorable combat conditions and could not defeat the county town, but they can destroy the residences, kill the villagers, and create panic. This is Han Hai's idea. Think about it, if this guy leads this group of cavalry to Xingling Land for a walk, what impact will it have on the Governor's Office in the North?" Park Demeng asked.

Both Wei Dongsheng and Han Xiao changed their colors.

"General Park must have made arrangements long ago, right?" Wei Dongsheng asked in a dry voice.

Park De nodded violently and pointed at a black dot on the military map, "When I was rushing to Guangchang, I had sent three thousand people to Yangqu County. After strangling this point, I cut off the main road of the Mengqi cavalry entering the Yizhou Basin and limit their range of activities to the west of Yangqu. As long as Yangqu is not lost, we will have enough time to clean up the Mengqi cavalry, step by step, compress their activity space bit by bit, and finally squeeze them into a small space, and then start the final decisive battle to completely defeat them."

Seeing Park Demeng's fingers drew a small circle on the map, Wei Dongsheng finally showed a smile on his face, "This is a good idea, but the people in this area are about to suffer. This Meng cavalry came from the Bayankala Valley and could not carry enough food and grass. He must plunder all the way to fight to support the war."

"This is exactly what I want to say!" Park Deung sneered: "Han Hai did not understand our Yizhou, so he was destined to be dead and alive this time. Now, thinking about it, the militia reserve plan formulated by the governor was really far-sighted. At the beginning, we were all worried that a large number of weapons would cause turmoil among the people. Now it seems that it is a wonderful piece of chess piece. Han Hai wants to fight with war, hehe, it is the end of October, and the crops in the fields have long been harvested into the warehouse, and he wants to get food.

, we must go to fight the villages. Are the villages in Yizhou so easy to fight? The five western counties were killed because they were caught off guard and had no time to react. There is no such good thing now. All parts of Yizhou have entered the highest state of alert, and all villages are on guard, and all small villages have been abandoned. The population and grain are all concentrated in larger villages. Each county is also gathering some young and strong people. Han Hai will be mercilessly squeezed by Yizhou, where our whole nation is soldiers."

"You see, when the first snow in Yizhou comes, this Mengqi will fall on the land of Yizhou. Their blood and corpses will make our crops grow more lush in the coming year!" Pu Demeng's face showed his murderous aura, "They have committed in the five western counties, they must be returned to us ten times. Han Guard, you are still stationed in Guangchang, this is the key part of our Northern Expedition Army, and there is no mistake at all."

"Yes, General Park."

"General Wei, you lead your troops to move east of Xiangyang Qu. Remember, don't be rash, you must do every step, step by step, and don't give your opponent any opportunity to take advantage of. The opponent is a cavalry, and comparing speed with the opponent is a humiliation."

"I will understand it."

"I led my troops west of Xiangyangqu, and our two troops slowly squeezed the enemy into this area. In this process, Han Hai must be unwilling to be restrained and will definitely find a gap to attack and block them."

"yes!"

"I think the governor should have a response, and the reinforcements from Xingling should be on the way." Park Demeng took a deep breath. He had reported his response to Xingling immediately. In the past two days, the reply from Xingling should have arrived.

"Go to fight!" patted Wei Dongsheng on the shoulder, "Don't worry about the past. If you destroy this Mengqi, you will naturally lose your merits!"

Two days after leaving Guangchang, Park Demeng received a reply from Xingling. A cavalry of two thousand people set out from Xingling and would come to help the Yizhou camp annihilate the invading enemy. However, what surprised him was that the commander of this cavalry was actually Hong Niangzi. According to Yun Zhao's instructions, he would accept Hong Niangzi's command.

Hong Niangzi is the woman of the governor, the future heroine of the Northern Army. Park Dem-meng has no psychological barrier to accepting her command, but he is worried that Hong Niangzi will overthrow his strategy. He heard that this woman, who is also a bandit, is extremely brave and is best at attacking. What if she insists on fighting against her opponent? First, the Yizhou camp cannot compete with her opponent's strength at all, and it is difficult to find the opponent's main force for a while. Second, there are only two thousand cavalry reinforcements, and I am afraid that they will not be able to fight head-on with their opponents. These two thousand cavalry are all new recruits who have never fought.

This worry gradually disappeared with the meeting between Yang Qu and Hong Niangzi. Hong Niang asked Park Demeng to continue to command the squeezing battle against the Meng Qi, and she only led the cavalry in this area and cooperated with infantry to slowly squeeze the opponent to the final decisive battle. "These two thousand cavalry cannot fight a big battle, and the squid cavalry is almost the same!" Hong Niangzi did not hide his attitude towards these two thousand cavalry. "It is impossible to be reborn without fighting a few battles. I can only take it slowly. This battle will still be with you as the protagonist, and I will be the supporting role!"

"Thank you, General Yan!" Park Demeng bowed deeply. With the words of Hong Niang, he was relieved.

Han Hai's days are getting harder and harder. Now it seems that the two days delayed in Guangchang are fatal. The opponent has already mastered Yang Qu. His opponent is obviously very difficult. He is not eager to find his main force to fight, but he tied the door first and then slowly squeezed it step by step. These days, Han Hai has clearly felt pressure from all directions. He has already felt suffocating. What worries him the most is food and grass. In order to travel through the Bayanla Mountain, the army did not carry too much food and grass. In the five western counties, he did not feel the pressure brought by the food and grass problem, because fighting and grabbing at the same time was originally the tradition of the Mongolian army, but now, this situation of solving supplies through war and raising war has begun to suffer great challenges. It is difficult to get it back to Han Jiang. Even if he succeeds occasionally, the food and grass that occupy the pit is just a drop in the bucket for a cavalry with thousands of people.

He did not expect that Yizhou was like this. It looked like an ordinary village. Not only did it build a wall, but there were also large pits several meters wide dug inside the wall. These pits were filled with water and were usually used to raise fish and shrimps. In wartime, it became a natural moat. What was most annoying was that these moats were actually dug into the wall and could not be seen from the outside. When fighting a village, his subordinates suffered a great loss. They broke the wall and many cavalrymen who rushed up fell into the pit and were drowned.

In addition to these complete defensive facilities, all the villagers here hold weapons. A village with hundreds of people can actually take out dozens of strong bows, which also made him suffer a lot. Every time he hit a village, he would have to pay a huge price.
