Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2011 Yang Chudao heads east, Xuanyuan Huang lures the snake out of its cave

"I know what you mean!"

"But, given the current situation, we must be extremely cautious!" Xuanyuan Huang said calmly.

As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, no matter how urgent the current situation is, the people under him can be anxious, but he cannot.

No matter how anxious you are, it will not help the current situation. Only by calming down can you have a chance to break the impasse.

Moreover, if he, as the top leader, panics, the people below will only panic even more.

"What Yanhuang said makes sense. Our army is now like on the edge of a cliff. If we make a mistake, there will be no recovery!" Yang Su also nodded.

The danger they are facing now is naturally due to the arrival of the Tianhe Navy, which has put the Dayan Navy at risk of losing control of the river.

In itself, the Dayan Navy did not have absolute control over the river. The two factions were in a state of confrontation on the river and could only barely cover their troops' landing operations.

Now that there is the addition of the Tianhe Navy, some difficulties are almost foreseeable.

Once the river fell into the control of the Han army, it was equivalent to cutting off their retreat. There was no food or grass to be transported to the rear. After a long time, after being cut off from food, they would be doomed to collapse without even fighting.

Since ancient times, no matter how famous a general you are, if food and grass problems arise and are not solved in a timely manner, the final problem will be extremely miserable.

Therefore, many generals at this time intended to slowly retreat and return to Qingnan before they completely lost control of the river.

However, only a few people in the room could see that taking a step back was also very dangerous. If one was not careful, one would still suffer serious damage.

After all, with Mo Peng's 30,000 Yanbei naval forces and Gan Ning's 20,000 Tianhe naval forces, how many people and ships can Dayan's navy mobilize to resist these 50,000 naval forces?

If they want to retreat, they must borrow the power of the Great Flame Water Master. Otherwise, they can't just let them swim back, right?

Under the current circumstances, they can only return in several batches.

Even if the Great Yan Navy could mobilize all of its forces, there was no way to use all of them to the other side in one wave. Not to mention, only limited forces could be mobilized.

And if the Han navy fails to hold its own during this process, even bigger problems will arise.

Furthermore, Dayan's troops were generally more elite than Han Xin's troops.

However, if part of them crossed the river and the rest remained in Qingbei, Han Xin's ability and the advantage in the military strength at his disposal could make up for this difference in quality.

Moreover, if he had to retreat, as the emperor, would Xuanyuan Huang retreat in front or in the back?

If they retreated in front, it would inevitably affect morale under such circumstances, and Han Xin would have more opportunities to take advantage.

But if he retreated, would the officials of Dayan be willing to sit back and watch Xuanyuan Huang take such a risk?

You know, no matter how important these 100,000 soldiers are, they are not as important as Xuanyuan Huang himself!
If these 100,000 soldiers were lost, Da Yan would certainly be seriously injured and his vitality would be greatly damaged. But if Xuanyuan Huang died, even if the 100,000 soldiers were preserved, it would be of no use.

Xuanyuan Huang's eldest son, Xuanyuan Xuanxiao, has his father's style, but Dayan is quite special among the many separatist forces.

This country, because of its origin, has a strong religious connotation. Xuanyuan Xuanxiao does not have the same momentum as Xuanyuan Huang in the Tianshi Dao. Once Xuanyuan Huang has an accident, no matter how good Xuanyuan Xuanxiao is, he will not be able to stabilize the situation in a short time.

The current situation in the world can be said to be one that is developing against all odds, and it is impossible for him to be left with too much time to waste.

Then after he has finally stabilized the situation, the enemy might attack.

In this regard, Dayan can be described as a history of blood and tears.

After all, with Xuanyuan Huang's ability, if it weren't for his weak foundation in the early stage, which made him waste too much time, how could Dayan's strength be so weak now?
At least, if he had not been forced to sell so many warships of the East China Sea Navy, the number of Dayan’s navy today would not be maintained at just 30,000, and there would not be the current embarrassing situation.

"Don't worry, everyone. Our army still has a chance of survival!"

"As long as we take over Pingyao County!"

"Our army's way out is here!" Xuanyuan Huang said calmly.

"Pingyao is on the sea. If we can capture this place, we will have a glimmer of hope!" Many generals said with their eyes brightened.

If Pingyao could be captured, there is a big river in the south and the sea in the east. Even if the Han navy can suppress the navy on the big river, it is impossible to completely control the coastline while controlling the river.

And at that time, they will always have a way out.

"Han Xin has stationed 40,000 soldiers in Pingyao!"

"Especially the key ferry crossings, they must be defended to the death!"

"Even if our army lives frugally now, the food and grass can only last for another month at most!" General Shi Le is not as easy to fool as others. He may be aware of the current situation.

Han Xin actually set up such a situation, it was impossible for him not to see the flaw in Pingyao.

From the very beginning, Han Xin blocked that place directly.

Fleets at sea need a certain size of ferry to dock. Therefore, although the coastline is long and there are countless large and small ferries, there are only a few suitable for them.

The Dayan Navy wants to transport food to them from the sea. However, the warships have to go by sea, so they must be large in size, and small boats cannot go out to sea at all.

After all, this is not comparable to the fishermen on the seaside who go out to sea to fish. They really need to sail on the sea for a certain time and distance.

Therefore, there were only a few places where Han Xin needed to garrison.

Shi Le saw clearly that with the time their current food supply could sustain them, minus the time it would take to travel, it would take quite a while. Would the ferry be open in the remaining time?

Not to mention, as the food and grass continue to decrease, the morale of the soldiers will become more and more unstable. Therefore, the further they go, the more difficult it will be, unless they can win in one battle.

However, wouldn't it be ridiculous to just laugh it off when facing an opponent like Han Xin?
In addition, it is indeed impossible for the 50,000 Han navy to take care of the entire Tianhe River and the entire coast, but if they only focus on a few places, it will be enough to intercept the Dayan navy.

Therefore, the current situation is not so optimistic. Speaking of this, Shi Le could not help but feel helpless.

At the beginning, they in Da Yan were short of food and lacked the ability to fight a protracted war, but they paid a huge price, even giving up such precious treasures, and only then did they get a batch from Da Wu.

However, even though there is food now, they cannot eat it.

"Humph! What if my Great Flame Water Master has more than 30,000?"

"What if our army has other arrangements at sea?" Xuanyuan Huang said with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present held their breath.

It is true that when you think there is no way out, you will find a new village when you turn around!
If you really say this to Xuanyuan Huang, this way of survival will really be opened.

As long as the Dayan Navy continues to fight with the Han Navy on the Tianhe River, then what would be the problem for this naval force that has been hidden all this time to suddenly cooperate with them, attack from both inside and outside, win a battle, and directly open up a ferry?
Fight! It's all about who has more cards! The larger the battle, the more so.

Therefore, on a large-scale battlefield, there are not hundreds of thousands of soldiers in a mess, killing each other. They are just testing each other and playing their cards little by little. Whoever hides his cards until the end and whoever keeps the bigger cards will have a greater chance of winning!
The most feared thing on the battlefield is that there is a powerful hidden trump card, which can be used at the most critical moment and can often directly change the situation of the battle.

After all, Xuanyuan Huang hid this card so well that even they themselves didn't know about it, let alone Han Xin.

It was also because Xuanyuan Huang hid some of his cards well enough that he was able to rescue Yang Su in time. Of course, if Yang Su had known that Xuanyuan Huang could arrive earlier, he would not have given up Zhushan so easily.

And everyone present here couldn't help but admire Xuanyuan Huang's hidden depths.

Even within Dayan, few people knew about the existence of Dayan’s navy, including the Dayan’s top brass.

And now, in addition to this exposed naval force, Dayan actually has another naval force.

"Your Majesty Emperor Yan, I wonder how many people from the Great Yan Navy are still hiding in the dark?" Yang Su asked tentatively.

He could guess that this force might not be too large.

After all, it is no secret that Xuanyuan Huang had deployed a large number of warships due to the development problems of Tianshi Dao.

On the basis of the 30,000 naval forces, it would be unreasonable for Xuanyuan Huang to throw out another 30,000. I'm afraid he was just deceiving them to stabilize the morale of the army.

However, Yang Su still asked with a glimmer of hope. Even if the force would not be too much, as long as it reached a certain scale, they would have more options and would not necessarily have to think about retreating.

After all, this is a hidden force that no one knows about, and it can definitely be of great use if it is used intentionally or unintentionally.

"Only eight thousand! And they are just some inferior warships!" Xuanyuan Huang shook his head.

The number of troops does not matter. The Tianshi Dao captured so many soldiers from the East China Sea Navy and recruited the high-ranking officials of the East China Sea Navy. If they really wanted troops, the number would definitely not be small.

But the navy is not determined by the number alone, the most important thing is that the warships can keep up. If there are only soldiers and horses but no warships, no matter how many soldiers there are, they will just go to the battlefield and die.

A second-rate warship was enough to discourage them.

However, even so, it was enough to help them suppress their troops and find a way to escape, without any intention.

"General Yang, this battle concerns the survival of our army! If I move on a large scale, it will definitely alert Han Xin!"

"Among all those present, your ability to lead troops is unparalleled in the world. Please lead the elite troops ahead, and I will retreat slowly!" Xuanyuan Huang stared at Yang Su and said.

"Don't worry, Emperor Yan. This is a matter of life and death. I will do my best!"

At this critical moment of life and death, Yang Su could no longer care about anything else and took on this task without hesitation.

Just as Xuanyuan Huang said, if their troops moved on a large scale, Han Xin would definitely notice something was wrong.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Huang still needs to harass Han Xin here for a few more days, and Yang Su must use these limited days to find a way out for them. The burden on him is heavy.

It was precisely because this burden was heavy that Yang Su had to take it on. He was not willing to hand over his life to others. Besides, if he left first, then even if it was impossible, he could still leave first at the end.

Even if it really doesn't work, at worst he can sell Xuanyuan Huang. Anyway, he is not a minister of the Great Yan, so he has no psychological burden. He can even give up his own Majesty, let alone other emperors.

The only pity Yang Su felt was that Zhang Churang and Geng Biao were still recuperating south of the river due to their injuries. Otherwise, it would be much safer if they had two more sharp blades.

However, Xuanyuan Huang was naturally also worried about Yang Su. How could he trust someone who could even abandon his own emperor? He also had his own plans when he gave this task to him.

Everything just depends on which side has the better skills!
"Oh right, Emperor Yan..."

Yang Su suddenly remembered something, but when he was about to speak, he was startled. At the moment he opened his mouth, he thought about another thing.

But it was precisely because he thought about this too much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Yang Su himself was a man of extraordinary wisdom and strategy. It suddenly occurred to him that he seemed to have become a pawn of Xuanyuan Huang.

However, he just couldn't refuse. After all, it was a matter of life and death.

"Luring the snake out of its hole?"

"Just luring the snake out of its hole is not enough. I don't know what your backup plan is? How can I turn the tables on you?" Yang Su thought secretly in his heart.

Although he was curious, Xuanyuan Huang was the emperor after all, and he couldn't force him to answer.

Besides, Dongcang only has such a small number of remaining soldiers and horses. How could he dare to interrogate the powerful Emperor of Dayan just because of curiosity?
At the same time, Feng Hou and Shi Le couldn't help but have their eyes flickering, and they inadvertently looked at everyone present.

Especially those who belonged to their Da Yan and were present at the scene, their gazes could not help but linger for a few more seconds.

Feng Hou is a god-level strategist.

Shi Le was a ruthless man who had fought his way up from slavery to establish himself.

These two people are both deep-minded people. In some aspects, neither of them is worse than Yang Su. They also vaguely sensed something.
