The next morning, the roosters crowed and the sky was filled with morning glow.
Wang Hao came to the top of the city and was about to start patrolling the city.
He suddenly discovered that there were fewer Xiliang troops outside the city today than yesterday.
""Hmm?"
Wang Hao couldn't help but feel suspicious.
According to common sense, the attack of the Western Liang Army should be more fierce.
It was good enough that he didn't transfer troops to Yong County, how could he transfer the troops from Yong County?
Something is wrong! It
's too wrong! Something must be wrong when things are abnormal!
Wang Hao couldn't help but be curious, what on earth stimulated Beigong Boyu to make him transfer troops away overnight!
Or, did the disappeared troops suddenly have some tasks?
But......, then again.
For Beigong Boyu
, what else is more important than taking Yong County?
For a moment!
Wang Hao fell into deep thought
"" My lord, what are you thinking about?"
Gao Lan, who had just finished patrolling the city, saw Wang Hao standing there and asked curiously.
He followed Wang Hao's gaze.
At this moment, he also frowned:"My lord, the Xiliang army seems to be......",
Wang Hao took a deep breath:"You also discovered it?"
Gao Lan nodded:"Yes! There are at least 10,000 fewer soldiers. Could it be that they were transferred away due to some emergency?"
Wang Hao shook his head and frowned,"Unlikely! For Beigong Boyu, the biggest task at present is to capture Yong County before the imperial army comes to support!"
"He should have concentrated his forces in Yong County. How could he transfer troops away from Yong County?"
"This doesn't make sense!"
Gao Lan nodded in agreement:"That's right! Something is wrong, could it be that something urgent has suddenly happened?"
Wang Hao glanced at Gao Lan, his lips slightly raised:"Your idea is correct, there must be external factors that prompted the Xiliang Army to make adjustments, but we don't know what these external factors are yet!"
"Could it be reinforcements from the imperial court?"
Gao Lan's eyes widened in disbelief.
"How do you say that?"
Wang Hao also had this question.......But
I have never convinced myself
"It's very simple!"
Gao Lan blurted out:"When the imperial court reinforcements arrive, Beigong Boyu will naturally support Meiyang. Isn't it normal to mobilize troops?"
"No!"
Wang Hao shook his head and denied it immediately:"Once the imperial army arrives, it will be a force that can fight against the main force of Xiliang. They sent 10,000 people to support Meiyang, which will not have much effect at all!"
"If it were me!"
Wang Hao took a deep breath and pointed at himself:"After learning that the imperial army was coming to support, I would definitely retreat, first to Chencang, and then return to Liangzhou, to hold the strategic location in order to protect myself!"
"That’s right!"
Gao Lan nodded in agreement:"The imperial court has a large army. Not to mention Li Wenhou’s 20,000 elite cavalry, even if all the elite troops of Xiliang were pressed forward, they might not be able to gain an advantage!"
"Rather than sending 10,000 people to support Meiyang and delay time, it would be more practical to lead the army back to Liangzhou and control all the important roads to protect themselves!"
"But......"
Gao Lan frowned:"If it's not like this, then what is it?"
Wang Hao shook his head and said,"I don't know much, but I believe that the answer will appear in a short time." Gao
Lan exclaimed in surprise:"My lord, why are you so sure!" Wang Hao raised his lips slightly and whispered:"It's very simple! Beigong Boyu would rather sacrifice his strength in Yong County than adjust his strategy, which proves that this matter is imminent!" Gao
Lan suddenly realized:"My lord is wise!"
Wang Hao waved his hand:"Okay, stop flattering, hurry up and deploy, something may happen today."
Gao Lan:"Yes!"
I don't know how.
Wang Hao called Li Le and said:"Li Junhou!"
Li Le stepped forward:"My lord!"
Wang Hao thought about it, and finally ordered:"You go to the north gate quickly and tell Zhang He to gather the cavalry, but if there is any situation, be ready to be dispatched at any time, and don't make any mistakes!"
Li Le bowed and saluted:"Yes!"
At that moment!
He went straight to the north gate without hesitation.
Today's Wang Hao didn't care about patrolling the city.
He was thinking all the time.
What was that external factor?
What stimulated Beigong Boyu to make such an adjustment?
The West Gate lost 10,000 people, so what about the other three gates?
"Two cows!"
"exist!"
"Go to the other three gates and ask if the troops attacking the city today have decreased? How many troops have been lost?"
"" Yes!"
Li Erniu received the order and turned to leave.
After a while, the news came back that the troops in the other three gates had been reduced.......But not as serious as the west gate.
Probably all together, there are only 10,000 people.
In other words, the entire force attacking Yong County was reduced by 20,000 people at once.
That's a full 20,000 people!
It has to attract Wang Hao's attention!
Where did they go?
Wang Hao didn't know!
But......, one thing is certain!
For the overall situation, it must not be a good thing!
Wang Hao pondered!
Suddenly!
Woowoowoo, woo
The horn of attack sounded.
The Xiliang soldiers launched another fierce attack.
But unfortunately, their acting skills were really poor.
Wang Hao could feel at a glance that the intensity of their attack had changed a lot.
If yesterday was a violent storm, then today, at best, it was just a heavy rain after a storm.
Although the intensity of the attack is still strong, it is far from what it should be expected!
Something is wrong!
Even more wrong!
If the troops were transferred to support Meiyang.
Then, Beigong Boyu's attack should be more fierce.
He must take Yong County in the shortest time possible to stabilize the situation.
But now......, the intensity of the attack not only did not increase, but weakened a lot!
So, what was the point of his attack on Yong County?.........，..........
Wang Hao racked his brains but couldn't come up with an answer!
Just at this moment.
Gao Lan suddenly pointed to the outside of the city not far away:"My lord, look at the north gate!"
Wang Hao turned his head hurriedly.
He saw dust all over the sky, there must be a troop of soldiers and horses rushing here.
Immediately!
A rumbling sound of a hole in the ground was heard.
Experience told Wang Hao that the army must be cavalry, and there were quite a few of them!
Could it be the Xiliang Cavalry?
No!
Absolutely impossible!
But if it wasn't the Xiliang Cavalry, who could it be?
Wang Hao looked closely.
As the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer.
In the stirring smoke and dust, there seemed to be a large flag fluttering in the wind.
This flag......
Wang Hao was so familiar with this place. It was the fifth battalion of the Northern Army of the imperial court!
The Tunqi Battalion!
""My lord, it's the Tunqi Battalion!"
Gao Lan shouted excitedly,"My lord, it's the reinforcements sent by the court. Haha, we've finally got what we've been waiting for!"
But what about Wang Hao?
There was no happiness on his face, but a hint of worry.
Because, at this moment, the elite troops of Xiliang who were attacking suddenly began to withdraw.
As they retreated, they shouted:
"Oh no! It's the imperial reinforcements, run!"
"Everyone run, these are reinforcements from the imperial court!"
"The imperial reinforcements are coming, run!"
"......"Although they fled in panic,
Wang Hao saw it clearly.
The elite military organization of Xiliang was not disrupted at all by this sudden support.
Could it be......，
"Not good!"
Wang Hao suddenly realized:"This is a plan to lure the enemy, the Tunqiying has fallen into the trap!"
