The Invincible Sixth Prince

Chapter 413: Stealing food?

In the following days, Yun Zheng tried to divert Bei Huan's attention every day.

Either send cavalry from Gubian to pretend to raid somewhere, or send a large number of scouts to conduct reconnaissance everywhere.

Anyway, he is ready to attack at any time.

Yunzheng's series of unusual behaviors naturally attracted Ga Yao's attention.

Jia Yao would send out several teams of spies every day to check the movements of the army near Gu.

But Yun Zheng's series of actions were so unorganized that Jia Yao couldn't tell what Yun Zheng wanted to do.

However, she also suspected that Yun Zheng was disturbing her vision.

She still felt that Yun Zheng might surprise King You Xian and attack him.

Although King Youxian is now stronger than King Zuoxian.

But Yunzheng is a guy who doesn't act according to common sense.

She even suspected that Yun Zheng might attack the 30,000 troops facing them.

However, relatively speaking, this possibility is smaller.

After all, the combat power of their 30,000 elite cavalry is there.

And Yunzheng has always liked to use cunning strategies to win, and he likes to cause great casualties to the enemy at a very low cost.

As long as the 30,000 of them do not divide their troops, the possibility of Yunzheng directly attacking the 30,000 of them is very small.

It's not like Jiayao didn't think about attacking those sent by Yunzheng.

However, Yun Zheng was obviously on guard against her attack, and she couldn't find a good opportunity to strike.

There is too little cover on the grassland.

Especially near the Three Sides City.

Except for Yanhui Mountain, there are no big mountains at all.

The so-called mountains here are basically dirt slopes.

Under such circumstances, if the enemy sends scouts to find a place with slightly higher ground, their movements can be seen from a distance of more than ten miles.

By the time their army ran over, the enemy troops had already fled.

If you want to intercept and kill the enemy, the best way is to outflank them.

But the enemy troops are now backing Gubian, and they can't outflank them at all.

Headache!

Huge headache!

Gayao rubbed his head, suddenly missing Bambu very much.

If his mentor was still alive and he could help him think about it, he wouldn't have such a headache now.

We have to be wary of Yunzheng, we have to deal with Boluan, and we have to be wary of that bastard Huluo!

Her two brothers are also restless now.

It’s already this time, and I’m still thinking about fighting for power!

I really don’t know what they are thinking!

When Yun Zheng calls, everyone will be taken over by Yun Zheng, and there will be no need to argue!

"Ugh……"

Jiayao sighed heavily again, feeling powerless in his heart.

She felt that Beihuan was like a small boat in the torrent.

It could be swallowed up by the torrent at any time.

At this moment, the voice of a soldier sounded outside the tent: "Princess, the spy is reporting urgently!"

"Come in!"

Ga Yao was instantly out of his thoughts.

As soon as the soldiers came in, they hurriedly said: "A large number of enemy troops are escorting grain and grass towards the Qingbian direction!"

"March towards Qingbian?"

Ga Yao's heart suddenly jumped.

Is Yunzheng going to send people to Qingbian?

Yunzheng got the news of Alutai's death and wanted to take action against Alutai's tribe?

Or is it that Yunzheng just wants to occupy Qingbian?

However, no matter what, as long as Yunzheng sends people to escort grain and grass to Qingbian, they will have a chance!

If you can seize the enemy's food and grass, that would be the best!

Even if you can't grab it, you can still find a way to burn their food and grass!

The troops and horses have not moved, the food and grass go first!

Burning food and grass once will slow down the enemy's offensive for a long time!

This is an opportunity!

When she first had the idea of ​​​​withdrawing from Three Sides City, wasn't it because she wanted to rob the enemy of food and grass by lengthening the enemy's front line?

Fight to feed war!

"Immediately send more spies in the direction of clearing the border and find out the enemy's situation as soon as possible!"

Ga Yao quickly issued the order.

Two days later, Gayao received the exact news brought back by the spies.

The enemy's vanguard force escorting grain and fodder was about 10,000 people.

Among them, cavalry and infantry should account for half each.

The amount of grain and grass they escorted was not particularly large, but it was enough to feed 10,000 horses for at least two months.

Moreover, the marching speed of the enemy's troops escorting grain and grass is much faster than the normal marching speed of the troops escorting grain and grass.

However, the enemy forces were also very cautious.

The enemy army constantly sent out scouts to conduct reconnaissance in all directions.

Moreover, the 5,000 cavalrymen of the front army were always about ten miles in front of the 5,000 infantrymen guarding the grain.

On the enemy's left front, there were five or six thousand cavalry supporting them.

Obviously, Yun Zheng was also wary of them robbing food.

After getting the exact news, Gayao's mind suddenly became active.

Enough food for 10,000 horses for two months!

For Daqian, this little food may not be much.

But to them, these grains and grass are very precious!

What they lack most now is food and grass!

We must find a way to snatch this food and grass!

Ga Yao worked hard to think of countermeasures.

As he thought about it, Ga Yao couldn't help but feel something in his heart.

When Daqian built the Three-Border City, in order to facilitate the transportation of grain and grass, he spent a lot of manpower and financial resources to build official roads between the Three-Border City and paved them with gravel.

However, this kind of official way has both advantages and disadvantages for escorting grain and grass.

On the grassland today, it is time for the ice and snow to melt.

It's wet and muddy in many places.

The enemy is in a hurry to escort grain and grass, so they must choose to take the official route.

But the official road is only one foot wide.

It can accommodate up to two flatbed trucks carrying supplies passing side by side.

As a result, the enemy's team escorting grain and grass will definitely be very long!

This is their chance!

After pondering for a moment, Jia Yao asked again: "Where is the enemy's grain escort team? How long will it take to reach Qingbian?"

The spy immediately reported: "According to the enemy's current speed, the grain and grass can be transported to Qingbian within three days!"

Within three days?

That’s really fast!

There is not much time left for them to snatch food and grass!

However, you can still give the enemy a little more time.

The enemy's escort was already moving quickly, and the enemy's soldiers must have been exhausted.

The farther back they go, the more tired the enemy troops become!

When the enemy's troops are exhausted, they will attack again!

In this way, casualties should be much smaller!

Thinking of this, Jia Yao was no longer impatient and began to slowly think about countermeasures.

After thinking quietly for more than an hour, Gayao sent an order to ask He Asu and Hu Luo to come see him.

When the two arrived, Gayao immediately informed them of the situation.

When they heard that they were going to rob food and grass, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Beihuan is not without troops now.

I just can’t afford it!

As long as he has enough food and grass, Beihuan can quickly recruit a new army and fight to the death with Daqian.

Jia Yao did not waste any time with them and quickly issued the order.

"He Asu, your troops will break out of the camp tomorrow and march towards the headquarters of King Youxian to attract the attention of the enemy's scouts! Tomorrow and night, five thousand people will be left to guard the camp. You will personally lead the other five thousand people to attack the enemy's camp at night. Close the left wing, and when it gets bright the day after tomorrow, pretend to attack the enemy's left wing!"

"I will personally lead 7,000 people and set out tomorrow night. At dawn the day after tomorrow, I will quickly move in diagonally to cut off the cavalry on the enemy's left wing from the other groups of people and horses, and with your cavalry on the enemy's left wing. Form a pincer attack!"

"Once the enemy's left cavalry retreats, you immediately lead your troops closer to ours!"

"Huluo, tomorrow night, five thousand people will be left to guard the camp. You will personally lead the remaining five thousand people. You will lead your troops to Qingbian overnight and hide your troops at Qingbian! As soon as it gets dark, your troops will immediately attack the enemy. Launch a surprise attack, and this princess will coordinate your attack!"

Gayao's ambitions are great.

Not only did he want to rob Dagan of grain and grass, he also wanted to eat all the soldiers who were guarding the grain and the five thousand cavalry in front!

The view on the grassland is so wide.

Large groups of cavalry move like a moving hill.

It's too easy to be discovered if you move during the day.

If you want to snatch food and grass, the best way is to move at night, and then rely on the speed of the cavalry to quickly kill the enemy without giving the enemy a chance to burn food and grass!

He Asu thought for a moment and then asked: "What if the enemy's cavalry on the left wing does not retreat?"

Jia Yao replied: "If they don't retreat, your troops will attack directly! At that time, I will detach thousands of troops to intercept the cavalry in front of the grain escort team, and Huluo will take the opportunity to attack..."

If the five thousand cavalry on the enemy's left flank had not retreated, their casualties would certainly have been much greater.

However, correspondingly, the enemy's casualties will also increase.

The best-case scenario is that the enemy's left-wing cavalry realizes that it is trapped in a double-team situation and retreats quickly...
