Chapter 1076 The big snake came out of the hole

Looking at Yanzhou City, which was very close at hand, Mr. Shen's eyes were burning.

He looked back at Su Ding, and said in a low voice: "If Yanzhou is under such a heavy pressure, the troops of Dongping Prefecture and Yizhou will not move..."

Su Ding understood, bowed slightly and said: "Then there is no need to worry about the strength of the troops on both sides..."

"good."

Mr. Shen said slowly: "In the past few days, I have to pay attention to the movements of the entire Yanzhou Prefecture."

"Ling Su is not here, and the entire battle situation in Yanzhou City is under your control."

The day before yesterday, Ling Su had already been dispatched to Jining Prefecture by Shen Yi.

In Jining Prefecture, keep an eye on possible reinforcements from Dongping Prefecture.

If the enemies on the left and right sides of Yanzhou remain motionless after this round, then Shen Yi will order Ling Su and Xue Wei to gather the troops from Jining Prefecture and Feixian County, gather under Yanzhou City, and attack Yanzhou by force.

Su Ding bowed his head respectfully and said: "I will obey your orders!"

Master Shen once again looked at the battlefield, looking at the dark black armor guards under the torches, and said solemnly: "My artillery camp will also be under your command for the time being."

"This Zhong Ming is a rare fierce general. You have to be careful, don't let him charge too hard. It would be a pity if he died here."

Su Ding bowed his head again and said, "The general will understand!"

Shen Yi took a last look at the Yanzhou battlefield, then left the front line of the battlefield with his hands behind his back, and returned to his temporary tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, a familiar figure had been waiting for Shen Yi for a long time. After seeing Shen Yi, he immediately stood up, bowed his head and saluted: "Si Zheng."

Master Shen sat on the main seat, looked up at him, and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Luo Siwu."

After Luo Yong was sent back to Jiankang by Shen Yi to report the letter at the end of last year, the emperor stayed in Jiankang, and then gave him a vacation and asked him to go back to his hometown for the New Year.

It wasn't until the spring of this year that he left Jiankang and returned to work in the newspaper office next to Shen Yi.

Now, it has been several months since Shen Yi returned to the north, but in the past few months, Luo Yong has tried his best to restore the northern mansion newspaper department, trying to integrate the remaining information of the mansion newspaper department.

Until now, the two met for the first time.

Luo Yong lowered his head slightly, with a respectful expression: "It's been a long time since we last met."

Master Shen poured him a cup of hot water, pointed to the chair opposite him, and said with a smile: "Sit down and drink a cup of hot water, and talk slowly."

Luo Yong responded, sat opposite Shen Yi, took a sip of tea, and said, "Sizheng, when we were in Jiankang, my subordinates went to see Siwu Lin, some single-threaded spies in the hands of Siwu Lin, my subordinates In the past few months, I have been running around in the territory of the Qi people, and those who can take over have already taken over."

After a pause, he said: "However, almost all of the Di News Division's intelligence network in Qi Ren territory has been severely damaged. There are only a few informants who have never participated in intelligence activities. So far, nothing has happened."

Hearing these words, even Shen Yi frowned. He lowered his head and took a sip of water, and said slowly: "A matter in Xuzhou has such huge implications."

Luo Yong hesitated for a moment and continued: "However, almost nothing happens to spies who have single-line contact, which means..."

Shen Yi's face was calm: "It means that there is something wrong inside the mansion's newspaper department."

Luo Yong nodded first, and then replied: "It should not be that he took the initiative to rebel, but because the things in Xuzhou were exposed, he was captured by the people of Qi, and he couldn't bear the torture, so he told all the things he knew."

"Most people in the Dibao Division were implicated, mostly because of this."

Luo Yong lowered his eyebrows and said, "And those surviving one-lines were originally in contact with Siwu Lin, that is to say..."

"Siwu Lin is fine."

Mr. Shen nodded and said, "I have never doubted this."

He looked at Luo Yong, and said: "Di Baodi's intelligence network in Northern Qi was destroyed, so there is no need to spend energy on arranging it in a short time, and use the intelligence of the inner guard first."

"During this time, I need you to coordinate the intelligence of the entire Yanzhou government."

"Whether it's the Qi people in Dongping Prefecture or the Qi people in Yizhou, if there is any movement, I will know within twelve hours."

Luo Yong lowered his head, then he looked at Shen Yi, and said, "Sizheng, General Xue in Fei County has too many troops."

"Therefore, the army in Fei County should have been discovered by the Qi people. The Qi army in Yizhou will most likely not take any action, even if there is..."

"I will definitely try my best to bypass Fei County."

Shen Yi nodded.

"I see."

………………

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

In the past three days, the attack on Yanzhou has never stopped.

However, neither the Qi army in Yizhou nor Dongping Prefecture made any move to support Yanzhou.

Shen Yi had no choice but to temporarily abandon the tactic of encircling the spot to fight for aid. He ordered Xue Wei and Ling Su through the Dibao Division to order all the Huai'an troops to move closer to Yanzhou.

At the same time, the intensity of Yanzhou's attack also began to gradually escalate.

From the very beginning, only ten thousand-household battalions were put into the battlefield. Up to now, there are basically [-] thousand-household battalions going into the battlefield every day.

In three days, the Chinese army under Shen Yi and the left and right armies had all approached Yanzhou.

The entire Huai'an army, except for the vanguard army, is already in place.

All preparations have been made for the general attack on Yanzhou.

This morning, Ling Su returned to the main army with about 1 soldiers from the Right Route Army. He himself also came to the tent of the Chinese Army, bowed his head and cupped his fists at Shen Yi: "Mr. Shen!"

Shen Yi rubbed his temples, and said in a deep voice: "Breaking the gate of Yanzhou is no longer a problem. The problem is how to take down Yanzhou at the least cost after entering the street fighting."

Ling Su thought for a while and said, "Mr. Shen, the crossbow is more useful in street fighting."

"But how to fight, we can only talk about it after entering Yanzhou City."

Shen Yi nodded.

He has led troops for so many years, so he naturally knows this truth. Many things on the battlefield cannot be escaped on paper. They must be considered in the actual combat stage.

Say it more bluntly.

Things on the battlefield, many times can only grasp a general direction, grand strategy, but when it comes to tactics and even actual combat, you can only rely on front-line command to conduct temporary operations.

If Shen Yi, the coach, forcibly intervenes, and Master Shen takes it for granted, it will inevitably become another "advantage is mine".

"How to fight, you can discuss with General Su, but the time for a full-scale attack on the city."

Shen Yi thought for a while, then said in a deep voice, "It will be tomorrow."

"Don't wait for Xue Wei."

"We must try our best to solve the battle as quickly as possible, and we cannot give the Qi people time to reinforce it."

Ling Su bowed his head respectfully, cupped his fists and said, "Your subordinate obeys!"

…………

The next day, the siege of Yanzhou finally officially escalated to a white-hot stage.

The Huai'an Army's strength of about [-] troops surrounded the entire Yanzhou.

However, the main attack is still from the south of the city.

Because these days, the Huai'an army has been attacking the south, and the entire southern city wall and city gate have been bombed to pieces.

It is easier to break through to the south.

Su Ding personally commanded this battle, while Ling Su was in charge of the other three sides to prevent the defenders in Yanzhou from breaking through.

However, at this time, when Shen Yi deployed his troops, he deliberately reduced the deployment of troops in the north. In the entire north of Yanzhou, there were only less than 5000 people.

This is a typical open side, allowing the Yanzhou defenders to break out from the north.

Because according to Shen Yi's estimation, there are too many defenders in Yanzhou City. If they fight to the end and let these Qi people fight like trapped beasts, then the casualties of the Huai'an army will definitely not be small.

Now Shen Yi mainly wants to win Yanzhou and have a foothold in Shandong that can be used as his home base. Therefore, Yanzhou City is relatively more important to him.

Unlike the night raids that started every night in the previous period, in this siege battle, the Huai'an army began to attack from the morning.

However, Shen Yi did not go to the front line to watch the battle.

Escalating the intensity means a large number of people will die.

Under such circumstances, if Shen Yi went to the front again, too many casualties would affect his judgment of the entire battlefield situation.

In comparison, sitting in the military tent at this time, facing the numbers one by one, would make him more rational.

From day to night, Shen Yi sat in the Chinese army tent for the whole day.

Documents and battle reports, like pieces of paper, flew to his desk.

In the evening, Luo Yong rushed to Shen Yi, lowered his head and clasped his fists and said: "Sizheng, all the troops from Dongping Prefecture and Yizhou around Yanzhou have left the city!"

When Master Shen heard the words, he was startled for a moment, and then his mind exploded like a light, and he suddenly understood.

"turn out to be…"

Master Shen let out a foul breath and murmured.

"There is such a reason for surrounding the spot to fight for aid..."

I was discharged from the hospital yesterday!I can finally sleep in the house. I slept for a whole day today, so the update is late. I will return to normal updates and quality soon, thank you guys!
