Because the key between Taiyuan and Heluo, that is, Shangdang was not able to be captured, it was very difficult for Xiahou Dun to contact the Heluo area, so he could only plan according to the scope he saw. For Xiahou Dun, Jinyang, which was easily conquered, provided him with the courage and support to continue fighting and expand the scope.

Xiahou Jun felt that this was his opportunity!

He originally thought this was a very simple thing, and it could even be said to be a beautiful thing!

If you walk around, you will be surrendered by the flags and you will also get some benefits.

But now, the beauty has become a tragic job.

Xiahou Jun was unhappy when he failed to win Yangqu successfully, especially when the soldiers who were going out to find the civilians came back one after another but did not bring back any good news, Xiahou Jun's face became even more gloomy.

Without enough civil servants, they cannot put enough pressure on Yangqu.

Xiahou Jun’s strategy is so simple that it cannot be simpler.

Yangqu County is not big, so there are naturally not many defenders. More than a hundred people are at the top. In addition, some temporary civil servants can help defend the city, which can be considered about 300. If Xiahou Jun can get about a thousand prisoners and force them to attack the city, then the soldiers guarding Yangqu will inevitably consume most of their energy and endurance in the end. At that time, Xiahou Jun will take the Cao army soldiers who are raising their strength to rush up at the last moment...

Have you basically filled in the fortifications outside Yangqu County without looking at it for one day?

But now there is not enough manpower, so this strategy cannot be implemented.

"Do you want to... ask the general for some more troops..." Someone suggested to Xiahou Jun.

Xiahou Jun frowned and immediately cursed: "Looking for General? You can think of it, you idiot! Are there many idle people on the general? If you can't conquer such a small county, what's the use? Well?! Let's continue to look for me tomorrow! I don't believe that there are thousands of people around Yangqu?!"

Xiahou Jun cursed, and the lowly military academy didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only keep his complaints in his stomach.

Of course, Xiahou Jun would also feel a little regretful. If he had known that the villages around Yangqu were empty, the prisoners he had captured before would not be so anxious to use...

But if the prisoners don't need to consume it, it's equivalent to serving food to these prisoners. Even if these prisoners are hungry, they have to give them a half-full meal before siegeing the city. Otherwise, there is no need to fight. How can they consume the energy of the defenders if they lie down in the city? So it's hard to calculate whether it's a loss or a profit after going around.

Xiahou Jun cursed, but he still had some conventional military literacy. When he was preparing to rest, he ordered: "These bastards like to attack sneak attacks, so be careful when on duty at night!"

Wang Tiansheng, a military academy, smiled and said, "I wish the Yangqu defenders would come to attack! If they really come and chop their heads down the city tomorrow, they would probably surrender directly, just like Shexian County, wouldn't it save trouble?"

It is very easy to use the same trick again. It was like this before, but it was better now. It would still be like this in the future. Don’t change it. Just one plan. How troublesome is it to change it?

Xiahou Jun nodded, "No matter what, check the trap layout again. Be careful, it's nothing wrong!"

"Zhou Ling." Military Academy Wang Tiansheng turned around and went.

Just as the military academy said just now, Xiahou Jun also hoped that Yangqu’s defenders could attack.

Before entering Feiqian, the members of the Cao family and Xiahou family had discussed and discussed the tactics and wars of the cavalry for a period of time, and found that Feiqian, a cavalry, had liked night attacks before...

Night attacks are indeed a good means, especially when governing elites.

Shandong's military system is there, which is probably similar to the human militia in the monster, recruiting infantry and high-level cavalry. The militia are basically cannon fodder and are not unavailable, but the morale is maintained for a short time and collapses quickly. If you can't take it down in a short time, you will immediately return to the appearance of a farmer. Therefore, when you cannot exert the advantage of numerical people at night due to vision and other problems, the elite night attack will form locally with more and less, and with strong bullying the weak, you will naturally get good results.

In view of the strategy of the cavalry's favor of using raids and night attacks, the Cao army naturally developed many ways to deal with it.

When Xiahou Dun was in Shexian County, he successfully lured the defenders...

And now Xiahou Jun wants to copy the success again.

What if it succeeds?

However, Xiahou Jun and Yi slept all night. When it was almost dawn, no Yangqu defenders came to attack, but were awakened by their own soldiers.

I don’t know if it was because the defenders of Yangqu were too brave or because Yangqu felt that they had the confidence to defend.

Anyway, the trap Xiahou Jun dug failed to trap Yangqu’s defenders.

"This group of trash! Incompetent people!" Xiahou Jun cursed, "I don't even have the courage to attack. It's really... Humph, go and catch some prisoners and lively words. Today I will defeat Yangqu!"

While Xiahou Jun was proclaiming his victory prophecy, a soldier suddenly came in a hurry.

"Sima!" The soldiers looked a little happy, "Finished! We found a Hu tribe on the other side of the mountain, with two or three hundred people..."

Xiahou Jung glared, "What's the fun of two or three hundred people? Capture it back!"

To successfully conquer Yangqu, at least one or two large villages must be enough to raise about a thousand people.

The soldiers hurriedly said, "No, Sima, it's a small tribe of the Hu people, and there are dozens of horses..."

"Oh?!" Xiahou Jun realized, "Where are people? Where are the horses? Have you caught them?"

The soldiers swallowed, "Sima, we just stared at it from afar... There are not enough people. If we go up, even if the Hu people don't resist, we can't catch up with them on horseback..."

Xiahou Jun took a breath.

There is nothing wrong with this.

How many dozens of war horses are there?

Xiahou Jun's eyes lit up.

This is a big deal!

Even if it is not a war horse or an ordinary horse that has not been trained, it is a very attractive income. Even if it cannot be used immediately on the battle formation, it can be used to drag and transport materials and transport personnel, which is quite good.

I guess I will also get the praise of General Xiahou Dun...

Xiahou Jun could even imagine that when he sent the harvested war horses back, General Xiahou Dun would definitely pat his shoulder to praise him...

And you can also leave two or three horses. At that time, it will be wonderful whether it is for your own home or for favors!

Xiahou Jun thought about it, his saliva was almost flowing down.

"Come! Gather the team!" Xiahou Jun stood up, "Move faster! You must not let these bastards run away!"

"Yes! Ah, Sima, then this Yangqu..." The soldier answered, and then asked hesitantly, "What should I do?"
Chapter completed!
