Chapter 686: The prisoner army is done!

North of Lijiang River.

Dali Military Camp.

In the commander's tent, Phoenix Station brought the latest news about Liyang City, which shocked Xi Xiongtu. With only 30,000 troops, they actually captured Liyang City?

Although the letter did not specify what method was used, Shen Yu could tell that the entire Liyang City was now under his control.

"Commander Xi, Mr. Shen said that Yunxi has now ordered Chen Ding to lead his army south. However, Liyang City is under his control. Now there are 100,000 troops going south. Please make plans in advance!"

"really!"

"Um!"

Seeing the subordinates of Phoenix Tower nodding heavily, Xi Xiongtu also took a deep breath and quickly ordered people to carry the sand table. After the generals gathered around him, he said: "Everyone, if Lord Shen's news is true, now Liyang City’s 100,000 troops are already on the way.”

"Here, Xiaosong Ridge is the only way for them to pass through, and it is also an excellent ambush point!"

"Now, most of our main force in Da Li has crossed the river and will fight to the death with Da Yan here."

"If we can swallow the 100,000 troops coming from Liyang City, it will definitely give Dayan a heavy blow and completely collapse Yunxi's strategy of encircling our army."

"The handsome and wise man!"

Xi Xiongtu looked at the sand table and said in a deep voice: "There are many trees in Xiaosong Ridge. I ordered people to ambush in the jungle in advance and let the 100,000 troops from Liyang City pass. Then the main force of our army came up. In Xiaosong Ridge, The ambush troops broke out in one fell swoop!”

"Commander, what if Yunxi sends troops to help?"

"hehe!"

Xi Xiongtu smiled and said calmly: "If our army moves, Yunxi will definitely not sit still and wait for death. They will definitely send troops to attack our rear or even directly attack our camp."

"Send the order and destroy all the ships on both sides of the Li River."

"This time, we will fight with our last resort!"

"Xiao Shuai, isn't it too risky?"

"How can my army of 300,000 defeat Da Yan's army of one million without taking risks?"

"yes……"

…

Time flies and it is three days.

In the past three days, the situation in Dali was unpredictable. First, Xi Xiongtu set up an ambush in Xiaosong Ridge and annihilated Da Yan's 100,000 troops in one fell swoop. Then Da Yan's commander Yunxi attacked Da Li's camp with fire!

Immediately afterwards, Xi Xiongtu directly destroyed all the ships on the river and led his army northward, directly exposing Dali to Yan's army's cavalry and cutting off Yan's army's food route.

As a result, Da Yan was facing a dilemma as he had no boat to cross the river.

Yanjun camp.

Next to Yun Xi stood several staff members, gathered around the sand table, with a deep look of confusion in their eyes.

"Everyone, please tell me, where does Xi Xiong Tu's confidence come from?"

"Now, although he has cut off our army's food route, the remaining food in our army is enough to last for ten days. On the other hand, the main force in Dali not only has to face the fierce pursuit of our army, but also faces the danger of a surprise attack from Liyang. ”

"Isn't he afraid of being attacked from both sides?"

As soon as these words came out, an older staff member also frowned: "This matter is indeed a bit strange. It stands to reason that Xi Xiongtu is a veteran who has always played steadily and steadily. This is the first time I have seen such an aggressive style of play. ”

"Commander, could they be plotting against Liyang City?"

"Liyang?"

Yun Xi was stunned for a moment and shook his head slightly: "Even if the 100,000 troops in Liyang are now surrounded and annihilated by them, there are still 200,000 troops in Liyang City, and Chen Ding is personally in charge!"

"Now after several battles, Xi Xiongtu only has more than 200,000 main troops under his command. How can he attack Liyang?"

"yes!"

"What exactly is Xi Xiongtu doing?"

"Commander, what if we ignore the main force of the Li army and forcefully cross the Li River to attack Xueyue City?"

"It's not that easy!"

Yun Xi shook his head, looked at the sand table and said: "The Li River is a natural danger. Now that Xi Xiong Tu has destroyed all the ships, it will not be easy for our army to cross the river on a large scale."

"Besides, Dali will never be unprepared. There will definitely be a large army guarding the south of the Li River."

"Going south rashly will push our army into danger."

Yun Xi paced back and forth, his eyes glancing back and forth between the sand table and the map. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Send the order, order Chen Ding to lead his army south and attack the main force of the Li army."

"At any cost, I will trap Xi Xiongtu to death in Libei."

"promise!"

…

Liyang City.

Zhang Liao and Yu Huatian stood together in the lobby. Ning Yan was holding a plate of fruit and serving Ning Fan.

"My lord, Yunxi is already in a hurry now. The main force of the drama commander continues to move northward and has now passed the Xiaosong Ridge area."

"Um!"

Ning Fan smiled and said calmly: "If my prediction is correct, Da Yan will definitely let us send troops from north to south to block the main force of Xi Xiong Tu. Then Yun Xi led his army north to besiege Xi Shuai in one fell swoop. The army!”

"But Yunxi never would have thought that Liyang City has now fallen into our hands."

"My lord, Han Sheng and General Yunchang have arrived in the north of Liyang City. When should we take action?"

"Tonight!"

"Instruct Han Sheng and Yun Chang to lead an army to attack Liyang City tonight."

"promise!"

"Wen Yuan, please order the army to get ready to go. Since Yunxi wants us to make a move, we cannot remain indifferent."

"As you command!"

…

Liyang City.

Prison.

Figures walked out one after another, with a bit of excitement in their eyes.

"General, do you really mean what you say?"

"Really set us free?"

Zhang Han was wearing armor, with a touch of power on his body, and said calmly: "I have said that you are all death row prisoners and should be executed according to the law."

"Of course, Japan will give you a chance today."

"As long as you earn enough military merits for your crimes, I will not only let you go free, but I will also report to the court and grant you titles and titles."

"Thank you, General!"

One after another, figures looked at Zhang Han with excitement and inexplicable excitement, and saluted respectfully.

"Stop talking nonsense, each person receives a set of armor and follows me out of the city!"

"promise!"

In just three days, Zhang Han had gathered nearly 10,000 prisoners from the surrounding city and organized them together for pre-war training.

For these prisoners, being able to breathe a breath of fresh air outside is already a huge profit. If they can fight hard on the battlefield and save a life, it will be a huge profit and everyone's morale will be high!

After some mobilization, Zhang Han named it the Prisoner Army!

"Generals!"

"You remember, now that you have all committed crimes and made meritorious deeds, I will allow you to be reborn from the ashes and change your mind. I hope you will not make mistakes."

"In our prison army, we have made the following military orders."

"Kill those who run away from battle!"

"Anyone who shakes the morale of the army will be killed!"

"Those who do not respect orders will be killed!"

"Kill anyone who leaves the camp without permission!"

"do you understand?"

"clear!"

"Out of town!"

Zhang Han led an army of 10,000 prisoners out of the city in a mighty manner. No one knew where he was going. Five people knew where he belonged, so they set out on the journey from this city.
