Chapter 1158: Encirclement and Annihilation of Yanglin (Part 2)

 For generals commanding troops, the stimulation of a powerful opponent will undoubtedly greatly improve their abilities.

Yang Lin has been beaten since he met Bai Qi, and under this huge psychological pressure, his commander-in-chief has been permanently improved by 2 points.

Now Yang Lin's commanding attribute has risen from 93 at his peak to 95.

But facing Bai Qi with a commander of 103, a commander with 95 points is still useless. Yang Lin can barely compete with him with the help of the city. As soon as he leaves the Yewang City, he is still beaten violently, and it is difficult to even effectively counterattack.

For Yang Lin who was trapped in Sizhou, the only way to survive was to break the encirclement and break through Hangu Pass with Yang Guang, and then return to Guanzhong smoothly.

 However, Bai Qi obviously knew this, so he would definitely set up an ambush on the way to Hangu Pass.

Yang Lin has fully appreciated Bai Qi's power. He was not sure that he would be able to break through the ambush and reach Hangu Pass under Bai Qi's ambush, so this way of survival was almost blocked.

Securing Yewang City is a dead end, and recapturing Hangu Pass is still a dead end. The Liang army seems to have fallen into a situation of no life or death.

Yang Lin was unwilling to fail like this. He racked his brains to think of a way to break the situation, and even his hair turned half gray while thinking about it. Finally, he came up with a way to survive.

Yewang will be unable to hold on to his food and grass for long, and Hangu Pass is doomed to be difficult to reach because of the dangers. So it is better to change the direction and attack Yin, Henan, turn Sizhou upside down, and then raise food and grass on the spot to delay time.

The biggest crisis for the Liang army is when the food and grass are running out. Once the food is exhausted and the army has no food to eat, the Liang army will collapse without the Qin army to attack.

Therefore, for Yang Lin, the top priority is not to leave Sizhou, but to find life-saving food. As long as he has enough food and grass, Yang Lin is sure to do it even if he has to stay for another year.

There is sufficient food and grass in Luoyang City, enough for the Liang army to consume, but with the strength of Yang Lin's hands, it is obviously impossible to capture Luoyang.

However, Henan Yin has 21 cities. If he captures any city, Yang Lin can requisition food from the people, or even **** food. This will not completely solve the food crisis, but at least he can survive for a while.

Yang Lin felt that with the power in his own hands, it was impossible to escape smoothly when facing Bai Qi, so he pinned his hopes on Yang Guang outside Hangu Pass.

As long as Yang Guang can persist until Yang Guang breaks Hangu Pass, then the dead end will become a way of survival, and Yang Lin will naturally be able to successfully retreat to the middle of the pass.

As for the life and death of the people in the city, it was beyond Yang Lin's control. After all, he could not protect himself now. Between the lives of the soldiers and the life and death of the people, Yang Lin decisively chose the former.

After deciding to turn Sizhou upside down, Yang Lin ordered all the grain and grass in the hands of the people in Yewang City to be confiscated. After holding on to Yewang for another ten days, Yang Lin took all the grain and grass and fled the city at night.

Yang Lin pretended to go to Hangu Pass, but changed direction halfway and headed east towards Henan Yin.

Yang Lin thought that he would give up a more reliable method and choose to "put himself to death and survive". It was absolutely impossible for Bai Qi to think of it. Little did he know that Bai Qi was also guarding against him and Yang Lin jumped over the wall.

After Bai Qi realized that Yang Lin was about to abandon the city and flee, in order to prevent Yang Lin from being defeated, he chose to deliberately let him lead the army to leave.

 Bai Qi only had a total of 60,000 troops in his hands. Since he was not sure of Yang Lin's specific goals, he chose the safest arrangement.

Bai Qi ordered Jiang Song to lead an army of 20,000 to ambush in Hangu, and Ran Min to lead an army of 30,000 to ambush in Luoyang. He personally led an army of 10,000 and disguised himself as an army of 30,000, pretending that the main force was still at home. The illusion of king.

As soon as Yang Lin left, Bai Qi occupied Yewang City. When he learned that Yang Lin had changed his route, Bai Qi and Jiang Song's army immediately surrounded him. Yang Lin did not ambush easily, but wanted to counter-ambush Ran Min's army, but Ran Min was also extremely cautious and did not fall for Yang Lin's trick.

Ran Min decisively gave up the ambush and instead retreated to the main road into Yin, Henan. He used the fortifications built in advance and the power of bows and crossbows to temporarily block the Liang army.

Yang Lin launched several attacks, but they were all driven back under the Qin army's thousands of attacks.

Just when Yang Lin was considering whether to take a detour, he learned that Bai Qi and Jiang Song were already coming from the two directions behind.

Yang Lin, who was vaguely aware of something bad, saw that it would be difficult to break through Ran Min in the short term, so he decisively chose a detour. After all, although the detour was time-consuming, it would at least avoid the risk of being surrounded on three sides.

But what Yang Lin didn't expect was that the Qin army was still blocking the way after the detour. In order to avoid being surrounded, Yang Lin could only continue the detour. Anyway, the terrain of Sizhou was open and the Qin army was not strong enough. No matter how they encircled, Yang Lin can always get around it.

In this way, Bai Qi, Ran Min, and Jiang Song's 60,000-strong army encircled Yang Lin's Liang army from three directions: east, southwest, and northwest.

After three detours by Yang Lin, the encirclement of the Qin army has become smaller and smaller, and the living space has become closer and closer, until Bai Qi took advantage of the terrain and trapped him at the junction of Hongnong and Yin in Henan.

 After listening to Qin Hao's explanation, all the generals were shocked.

60,000 troops besieged nearly 50,000 troops. Think about it and you know how difficult it is. Now Bai Qi's troops must be extremely tight and are waiting for their support.

“Sixty thousand troops surrounded nearly 50,000 Liang troops. It was impossible to arrange everything comprehensively, but Bai Qi has almost achieved perfection, and now we have to fill in the last link of the encirclement.”

After saying this, Qin Hao pulled out the Tianwen Sword from his waist and shouted: "The whole army goes out to fight."

 “Kill, kill, kill…”

The 12,000-strong army made a roar that shook the sky. The morale of the whole army was like a rainbow. After leaving Luoyang, they went straight to the Hongnong battlefield.

 Two days later, at the junction of Yin and Hongnong, Henan.

After getting rid of Bai Qi's siege again, Yang Lin still led the army to continue to find a way out. However, after several days of rapid march, the whole army seemed extremely tired.

“General, the road ahead is blocked by Ran Min again.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Lin's face instantly turned pale, and he quickly asked to his left and right: "How many days of food and grass are left?"

"It's less than five days. If we save some food, we can still last for seven or eight days."

Yang Lin suddenly felt dizzy. After quickly stabilizing, he couldn't help but murmur to himself: "The nearest city from here still requires two days of marching. If we take a detour, it will take four days."

When Yuwen Chengdu heard this, he realized that Yang Lin still wanted to take a detour, so he looked at Yang Lin with a serious face and said in a deep voice: "General Yang, we can't let you go. If the road ahead is blocked again, our army will completely There is no hope."
