Chapter 919 Battle at Chang''an (5)


    Wang Fang turned to look at Li Meng.


    ??Although the two of them are stationed together, Li Meng has some clan connections with Li Jue after all, so in this matter, Li Meng''s decision is the final and most important.


    ?Li Meng was about to open his mouth several times, but he forced himself to hold it back. Before coming to Sucheng, Li Jue repeatedly told him not to be greedy for merit and just be able to defend. Therefore, Li Meng had to put aside his own personal factors and follow Li Jue''s arrangements.


    More than a thousand cavalry, because of their horses, once they stopped and spread out, they covered a large area. Within the line of sight of Li Meng and Wang Fang, they could see the horses even from such a long distance. They were all good horses, the soldiers were all covered with good armor, and their weapons were sharp, flashing coldly from time to time in the sun. Looking at the movements of these soldiers on and off the horse, they are smooth and skillful, and each of them is an agile man. The tough temperament revealed by being in battle can be clearly seen.


    ??Li Meng tried his best to get rid of the shackles of a low-level general and figure out the deeper meaning of Li Jue''s orders...


    At present, these Bingzhou cavalry are so impressive. In addition to their own excellent combat power, will they have any other support?


    ??If there were only more than a thousand cavalry in front of him, Li Meng would not be afraid. Cavalry is not good at attacking cities anyway. In addition, he also has nearly a thousand cavalry. If he fights hard in the wild, he may not be that weak.


    But is it worth it and is it necessary?


    ??It is easy to send cavalry out of the city now. Winning the battle will of course improve the morale of your soldiers a lot, but what if...


    ??And the current state of laziness of these Bingzhou cavalry is displayed deliberately? In the smoke and dust behind the cavalry that has not yet dissipated, how far are the follow-up infantry of these cavalry, and how many are there?


    ??If you lose the cavalry under Xiliang''s command, how much loyalty can you have if you rely solely on these infantry temporarily mobilized from the Sanfu area? How long can it hold out under the enemy''s attack?


    ?Thousands of thoughts kept spinning and colliding in Li Meng''s head, causing Li Meng to feel a slight pain in his head, and it was a bit difficult to make a decision.


    ??Wang Fang waited for a long time, and when he saw that Li Meng remained silent, he couldn''t bear it any longer, and asked loudly: "How about it? Do you want to go out of the city to fight?"


    “No fight!” Li Meng subconsciously opened his mouth and said these two words.


    As soon as these two words were spoken, Li Meng suddenly panicked, as if he had exposed something inadvertently. Without looking at Wang Fang''s gaze, he increased his volume and waved his hands, as if this could give him The words added some weight, "We can''t fight! The cavalry general wants us to defend this city, not to let us fight without authorization! What''s more, there must be a large number of infantry behind these cavalry. Even if we go out to fight in the city, we may not be able to win. What a benefit!”


    “…” Wang Fang was silent and turned away, no longer looking at Li Meng.


    Although Wang Fang did not speak, Li Meng could feel something. In order to make his order more authoritative, Li Meng ordered loudly: "Give me the order, and all ministries will strictly observe it. Do not move without orders!"


    With this order, the Xiliang cavalry who had gathered behind the city gate and were waiting for orders couldn''t help but froze for a moment, and then began to disperse under the leadership of the captains of each team. Several sighs were faintly heard among the soldiers...


    Fei Qian has been paying attention to Su Cheng. Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, he didn''t see any actions in Su Cheng. He couldn''t help but shook his head.


    What a pity.


    Fei Qian said: "Send the order and let the people behind catch up..." Since the Xiliang cavalry will not go out to fight, the arrangements behind them will have no effect. The more exaggerated idea of ??sending cavalry galloping under the city, doing the elephant dance with bare **** and buttocks exposed, etc. is not something Fei Qian doesn’t understand, but that unless the general opposite is sure to be an extremely easily angered commander, otherwise it will It will arouse the other party''s vigilance and achieve the opposite effect.


    Therefore, with such a distance, the current actions are more normal. At least it seems like there is some slack and some flaws, but it is not that obvious. It is like being revealed inadvertently, which will attract some people. Jump in…


    ?But this time, it is obvious that the other party has no intention of stepping in, so it can be confirmed that at least the general who leads the army is more rational and cautious in comparison.


    ?Then let’s make the next arrangements naturally...


    In this era, the Xiliang cavalry focused on heavy cavalry, while the Bingzhou cavalry was a ranger between light cavalry and heavy cavalry. As for Hu cavalry, because the technology for smelting steel was not available on the grasslands, they basically The above is biased towards light cavalry, so the Feiqian Cavalry actually has some advantages in cruising faster than the Xiliang Cavalry.


    Now you need to use this advantage to deceive your opponents.


    ?Of course, when the strategy is laid out openly in front of the other party, it will make the other party even more at a loss.


    The infantry in the rear quickly caught up, and then under the **** of the cavalry, they began to set up camp on a high ground near Luoshui in the north of Su City, setting up a formation. The deputy must be in a long-term combat posture.


    Li Meng, who was on the top of Su City, finally waited for Fei Qian''s infantry to appear, and couldn''t help but breathed a sigh of relief. The number of people was not beyond his imagination, and it was naturally within the range he expected to bear.


    Once the tension relaxed, the fatigue all over his body seemed to explode, instantly making Li Meng feel exhausted. So Li Meng explained to Wang Fang, and then returned to the government office in the city with his guards to prepare. Take a break.


    Anyway, Fei Qian''s troops on the opposite side have to set up a camp. Even if they want to attack the city for a while, they have to wait until the camp is completed. Otherwise, if the city cannot be conquered in one day, the troops will stay in the wild and dig in the ground. Can''t sleep in the nest?


    So Li Meng is also preparing to take a good rest in order to prepare for the brutal siege that may come next.


    ?However, Li Meng had just finished eating vegetables and rice, and when he was lying on the sofa in a daze, suddenly a messenger rushed in, waking up Li Meng who was about to enter a sweet dream...


    "What?" Li Meng shook his head to drive away his sleepiness. He stood up and asked the messenger again, "You said the Bingzhou soldiers were building a dam on the Luoshui River?"


    ??The construction of the dam is definitely not because the Huxiong Zhonglang has any intention to improve Sucheng''s water conservancy construction, but it is a very obvious signal that water conservancy is to be attacked.


    Digging Luoshui to attack Su City? !


    How is this possible? !
