Chapter 1873 True and false


    Chapter 1871: True and false


    Su Dingfang not only stopped his attack on Yuyang, but also transferred Sun Lingming, who attacked Guangping City. These unreasonable signs also puzzled Li Guang in Yuyang City.


    You should know that among the four major troops of the Qin army before, except for Bai Qi who fought steadily and without any impatience, the attacks of the other three were very fierce. Obviously, they all wanted to be the first to attack Guangyang County and occupy the first contribution to destroying the Han Dynasty.


    Among the four armies, the closest to Yanjing City is Su Dingfang''s troops. As long as you capture the last four cities of Yuyang County, you can successfully attack Guangyang County and then attack Yanjing City.


    But at this last moment, Su Dingfang stopped the attack, and this behavior was obviously very unreasonable.


    Is it said that the Qin army lacked enough troops to capture Yuyang City?


    But Li Ling Mingming was just a small defeat to Sun Lingming. The casualties of more than 2,000 people were just a drop in the bucket for the Qin army, and there was no problem of insufficient troops at all.


    Then why did the Qin army stop attacking?


    Li Guang was also very puzzled about this, but what is certain is that Su Dingfang must be planning a bigger conspiracy.


    "Father, you are too worried. Su Lie may know that he can''t capture Yuyang City, so he may retreat to repair the troops." Li Guang''s son Li Gan said with a smile.


    The solemn expression in Li Guang''s eyes did not diminish at all, and he said in a deep voice: "I hope I am too worried about my father, but when Su Lie retreated, the morale of the Qin army was still strong, and the neat military appearance was shocking. Obviously, there was still plenty of energy left. This is not a weak attitude."


    "What is Su Lie''s purpose for retreating his troops?" Li Gan said in confusion.


    "well."


    Li Guang sighed and said, "I want to know too, my father."


    In fact, Li Guang was opposed to the task of guarding Yuyang County from the beginning, because he knew that he and Su Dingfang were not in the same heavyweight class at all.


    Who is Su Dingfang?


    He is a famous general who has been famous for a long time and has rarely suffered defeats in all directions. Even among the Qin army, he is still among the top ones.


    He, Li Guang, was just a powerful general, and before that, he had not even had a few opportunities to lead the army alone.


    Therefore, when facing a strong opponent like Su Dingfang, Li Guang, who is self-aware, will naturally feel guilty.


    Li Guang was afraid that he would let Liu Che down, but at this time, no one in the Han army was qualified to guard a county except him, so even if he was to drive the ducks on the shelves, Li Guang could only bite his teeth and go on it.


    The result was as expected by Li Guang. Even though he was extremely cautious, Banyue who fought with Su Lie had been defeating the battle, retreating from the southern part of Yuyang to the central part, and now retreating to the northern part of Yuyang City.


    The initial 25,000 army was only 18,000. Although the casualties were not too great, morale dropped significantly.


    If Li Ling hadn''t been rampant, defeated Sun Lingming and greatly increased the morale of the Han army, Li Guang would not have the confidence to persevere.


    Li Guang seems relaxed on the surface now, but in fact he has been forced into a dead end. He has no other way to retreat except to defend Yuyang City, because if he retreats again, he can only retreat to Yanjing.


    Li Guang felt exhausted but powerless in this regard.


    Li Guang remembered his old friend Zhou Yafu. If Zhou Yafu was not captured alive by Li Jing after being defeated in Qingzhou, but fled back, he would definitely be the one who was in charge of guarding Yuyang, not Li Guang who drove the ducks to the shelves.


    "Brother Zhou, what would you do if it were you?"


    Li Guang murmured to himself, but his heart was already in a mess. He could not think of any other way except to defend the city.


    "Report to the general, General Tian Yu has heard news that there is a trend of the Qin army."


    “Come on.”


    "No." Li Guang took apart and looked at it, but the more he saw it, he became more shocked.


    "Su Dingfang sent a large number of spies to Yanshan. What are you going to do?"


    Li Guang frowned, then seemed to remember something, his face changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "Are you looking for a mountain road to bypass Yuyang County and go straight to Yanjing?"


    "Father, no one is more familiar with the terrain of Yuyang than us. How can we bypass the road from Yuyang to Yanjing?"


    Li Gan looked dissatisfied and said, "From the child''s opinion, Su Dingfang is just making a fool of himself. His purpose is to arouse our army''s panic and lead our army out of the city to fight."


    Hearing Li Gan''s words, Li Guang''s face improved a lot, but it was still very ugly, and the words "Understanding" were almost written on his face.


    "Kay, can you be sure that there are no other paths in Yanshan, and can you lead directly to Yanjing?" Li Guang asked.


    "This... Although the child has entered Yanshan, he cannot be sure. However, if you find a local hunter and ask, you should be sure."


    Hearing this, Li Guang nodded: "Since that''s the case, I dare, let me leave this matter to you."


    "No."


    After Li Gan got the order, he directly found hundreds of Yanshan hunters and inquired about them one by one.


    Most hunters said that they had never heard of this road, but there were two or three companies, saying that there seemed to be such a road, but it was not taken for too long and it was now abandoned.


    After learning these ambiguous answers, Li Guang and Li Gan looked at each other and realized the seriousness of the problem.


    If there is no such road, it is naturally the best, but if there is really this road, even if it is abandoned, it will still be bad news for the Han army.


    This means that the Qin army can bypass Yuyang City and go directly to attack Yanjing City, and it will be meaningless to defend Yuyang City to the death.


    Although most hunters said that there was no, and that the possibility of this road not existed is greater, a few people said that there was no such thing, which means that this road is likely to exist.


    In this situation, it is the most deadly to know whether it is true or false, because Li Guang no longer has the capital to gamble.


    "Father, what should I do now?" Li Gan asked.


    "Send all the spies out and you must find this way before the Qin army." Li Guang gritted his teeth.


    The situation is even more unfavorable to the Han army. Once the Qin army finds it in front of him, the entire Yuyang defense line will lose its meaning.


    Therefore, Li Guang must rush in front of the Qin army, find this small road directly to Yanjing, and then send troops to seize the important road to garrison.


    With the steep terrain of Yanshan Mountain, if the Han army can camp smoothly, it only takes two thousand defenders to completely block the road.


    Hundreds of spies from the Han army searched for three consecutive days, but they still couldn''t find them, and the search of the Qin army continued.


    "Report to the general, Su Dingfang personally led a 30,000 army and lost his trace after leaving Lu County twenty miles."


    "What?"


    Li Guang screamed in shock, then grabbed the spy''s collar and asked, "There are 30,000 troops, so many people, and such a big noise, how could it be that suddenly disappear?"
