【two hundred and forty-four chapters】strategies are appropriate to counterattack each other (Part 2)

Ang Lee was stunned: "How did Caozhou Wei know... the Huns would set up defenses on the mountains on both sides? Why did they have to raid the border city at this moment? The Xianbei and the Xiongnu army can directly attack the city, why should they take this trick?"

Ning Nanyou carefully analyzed: "Mr. Li should be very clear in his heart that the alliance between the Xianbei and the Xiongnu is actually not stable. Therefore, after exploring the strength of the border city, Ashanda will definitely send troops to set up ambush around the border city. They will not immediately notify the Xianbei to send troops when there is no need to."

Ang Lee asked again: "But...what do you determine that the Huns would choose to raid at dawn?"

Ning Nanyou carefully analyzed: "Now the defense of the border city garrisons is concentrated in the front gate and behind the city. The troops on both sides are scarce. In order to prevent the enemy from raiding, the entire city defense will not sleep all night, change shifts, and stick to the city wall. However,... the generals change frequently and do not have enough rest, and are prone to sleepiness. The time for loose and preventive measures is morning."

Everyone in the hall was puzzled, and four pairs of eyes were staring at him in unison.

Ning Nanyou continued to explain: "The soldiers in the army will feel that since the enemy has not made any moves all night, they will definitely not attack the city at this time. As long as the Huns march quietly and do a good job of the illusion, there will be no movement along the Canghe River. The lookout soldiers will relax their vigilance first. The defenders on the city wall will also relax due to the fatigue of guarding the city for several nights."

Ang Lee thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.

They guarded the city defense every day with fear, and did not dare to relax at night. They were in trouble all night. Every morning when it was dawn, the soldiers would feel that the night was safe and had successfully survived.

Qian Hui frowned and thought about this matter, and said calmly: "If so... the mountains on both sides of the city need heavy troops to guard it."

Ning Nanyou shook his head and denied him: "No. The heavy army will cause the city to lose most of its strength. If the Huns lay ambushing troops on both sides and attack directly from the main gate of the city defense, we will be passive."

Qian Hui sighed, "Then...what should we do? If the troops in the city cannot withdraw from the mountains on both sides, it is almost impossible to prevent the Xiongnu's sneak attack."

Ning Nanyou curled his lips and said calmly: "Why is it impossible? General Qian, at this moment, you and me, everyone here, have thought about the possibility of the Xiongnu's sneak attack. Since there was a precaution, there must be a solution. There are no more and no more people sent to the mountains, and only twenty people are enough."

Ang Lee was shocked and questioned inexplicably, saying, "What is the fighting method? Only twenty people were sent to ambush the Huns on the east and south sides. How can they repel them?"

Ning Nanyou pointed to the small yellow flags on the hills on both sides of the sand table and said, "The Huns set up an ambush and would definitely walk around the mountain road and enter from the back of the mountain. However, these two sides are closely connected with the mountains, and there is a deep concave gully in the middle. If you want to climb to the top of the ridge, you must cross a cliff, and the terrain is quite steep.

If our people can set up mechanisms on the ridge wall in advance, they can use the terrain between the mountains and the mountains to knock them down from the cliff walls, which can effectively stop them from moving forward. If they choose to climb from places where trees are dense and difficult to walk on the mountain, we can also use these trees as cover.

Hundreds of scarecrows were laid out in the deep forest and put on armor. With this bluff, the Huns thought we had set up heavy troops in the mountains. Taking the opportunity to let these ten soldiers attack continuously from the side and defeat their psychological defense line, they could retreat.

The reason I said that only twenty soldiers were sent to it was because the mountain was steep and dangerous, and too many people entered, so that they could easily find targets. The second was because fewer people were more likely to hide in the dense woods so that they could better attack the Huns ambush."

Qian Hui then suddenly realized: "So that's it... This can reduce losses and repel the Huns' ambush. It's their idea of ​​giving up the raid. But... the officials still have something unknown. If the Huns give up the raid from both sides and attack from the main gate... how should we prevent it?"

Ning Nan sighed, "Did you have been discussing how to defend the city these days?"

Ang Lee looked guilty and said helplessly: "I am very ashamed of this matter. The four of us thought hard about good plans and have not yet found a solution... Although the Xiongnu learned that there were no reinforcements in the border town, they would not allow the Xianbei to go out for the time being. However, relying on the current situation of the border town, even the Xiongnu could not defeat..."

Ning Nan calmed his eyes and brewed for a long time. He pointed to the direction of the main city gate and circled around the surrounding city walls and said, "The walls of the border city are tall and tough. Although Deng Qing has not strengthened the Changming Army's strength in recent years, he has been particularly attentive to the walls around the city walls and spends huge amounts of money to repair them every year. Therefore, the city walls are very solid and difficult to capture.

At that time, the Huns will definitely choose to attack the city with cloud ladders. As long as we prepare enough flammable straw, branches, firewood and other items under the city wall in advance, and then place a jar of strong wine and hot oil under each pier in the city wall.

In addition to the cloud ladder and seven miles away from the border town, Ashanda will definitely prepare tens of thousands of stone throwers and archers like the last time. Therefore, there are also enough iron shields and stone guards on the city wall to avoid their frontal siege."

Ang Lee's tense expression slowly relaxed, and he said as if he was relieved: "There is less water in the city, but there is a lot of oil for the kitchen. There is also enough spirits. It is indeed possible to deploy defenses as Caozhouwei said... In this way, it can indeed relieve the Xiongnu's attack."

Ning Nanyou changed his tone and when everyone was a little relaxed, he poured a pot of cold water and said: "It's just... even if these methods are used in a row, they can only temporarily suppress the Huns for a while, not a long-term solution. Reinforcements still need to arrive in three or four days. According to my calculations, the Huns will attack the city in the morning of the next day. The generals in the city are exhausted and cannot fill their stomachs... Whether we can survive these three days is the question we really need to think about."

Qian Hui looked bleak: "This matter is unsolvable. As Caozhouwei said just now, Ang Li and I have led two teams out of the city. But the surrounding mountains are indeed full of scouts and patrolmen from the Xiongnu. We cannot find a way to go to the neighboring county to borrow grain or go into the mountains to find water..."

Ning Nan sighed: "If there is no food or water source, the status of the soldiers in the army will decline sharply..."

After these words, everyone bowed their heads and lamented.

At this moment, a firm and beautiful female voice came from outside the conference hall: "Everyone... I have a way to solve the problem of food and water."

Ning Nanyou was stunned and looked up at the corridor outside the conference hall. He saw Jiang Chengjia wearing a simple and elegant curly skirt, standing among the bright lights, with a calm expression.

Ang Lee asked in surprise: "Mrs. Shao? What kind of trick do you have to solve this problem?"

Jiang Chengjia slowly entered, walked to the center of the hall, saluted the five people slightly, then turned to Ang Lee and replied softly, "Mr. Li, are you willing to believe me once."

Ang Lee nodded and said, "I am willing to believe in Mrs. Shao, but...the mountains around the border town are blocked...there is no longer a way to the outside world. What can you do to transport life-saving food and water to the military and civilians in the city?"

Jiang Chengjia raised his eyebrows and did not answer him directly: "Sir Li, since you believe me, you might as well leave this matter to me. As for what method I want to use... you don't need to look at it."

Ning Nan was full of doubts and stared at the girl without saying a word.

Qian Hui and Zhao Fu looked at each other, wondering what Jiang Chengjia was trying to do.

Even Ning Nan's worries cannot be solved. What will she do to solve this problem?

Bai Weijun's eyes were staring at this beautiful girl, and she felt a sense of firmness in her heart.

"Since Mrs. Shao said that, it's better... let's believe her once. Everyone, the lady is resourceful. Thanks to her, she can only get the Huns back without fighting six days ago... Maybe she really has any good ways?"

The young commander's eyes shone with a light, and there was a hint of affirmation in his eyes that looked at the girl, and it was even a little hot.

Jiang Chengjia was stunned, but he did not expect that among the five people present, Bai Weizhang spoke up to express his attitude first.

Ning Nan paused slightly, looked up at Bai Weimeng, and read a hint of lingering and passion from his eyes.

His eyes darkened and he felt a little unhappy.

He felt a hint of threat from this person's expression and expression.

Bai Weizhang... Nowadays, his attitude towards Jiang Chengjia is getting more and more different. He agrees with her opinions, and even listens to her orders alone.

Jiang Chengjia didn't notice Bai Wei's intention at all. After a moment of pause, he bowed to him and thanked him: "Thank you for your trust in Commander Bai."

She turned to look at the others.

Qian Hui and Zhao Fu pondered for a moment and agreed: "We wish to believe in Mrs. Shao."

Ang Lee hesitated for a moment, looked at Jiang Chengjia with uncertain eyes. Seeing that her eyes were very calm and firm, he moved slightly, gritted his teeth and said with determination: "Since both generals and the leader are willing to believe Mrs. Shao, then I... am willing to believe it too."

After gaining everyone's approval, Jiang Chengjia smiled and bowed to them again.

After everyone dispersed from the conference hall, Ning Nanyou grabbed Jiang Chengjia's sleeve, stopped in the courtyard, and asked quietly: "What are you thinking? The surroundings of the city are surrounded by water. How can you transport water and grain into it?"

Jiang Chengjia said with a lip voice: "Don't you believe me?"

Ning Nan was stunned and said helplessly: "It's not that I don't believe you. But I think this is impossible."

Jiang Chengjia snorted: "How do you know it's impossible?"

Ning Nanyou was stunned again and sighed: "How is it possible?"

Jiang Chengjia insisted on not saying: "I have my own way, so don't ask too much."

After she finished speaking, she pulled her sleeves and ran towards the end of the corridor, ignoring Ning Nanyou's call.

Lu Xun walked out of the hidden place, pushed the wheelchair under Lang Jun, and said in confusion: "What kind of method did the lady think of? How could she definitely transport food and water?"

Ning Nanyou stared at his left back, shook his head and said, "I don't know what she is trying to do?"

He smiled helplessly, "She is always like this, weird and unpredictable."
