Ma Chong, who replaced Xiao Du as the chief scout, didn't dare to neglect, and quickly led Zheng Yuanyun to where he was investigating.

Zheng Yuanyun took his own guards as escorts. In order to prevent Ouyang from discovering their movements, he even deliberately pulled back, so that he went around the main road of communication mentioned by Ma Chong.

The road is very wide and wide, starting from the inland border of the province of Nantes, almost crossing east-west, dividing the province of Nantes into two halves, and running through the city of Terre.

It can be said that if there is no obstacle, through this road, troops can be sent from the inland to support the three cities of Tel, Seeli, and Ketan as the main cities in a very short time.

At the beginning, Zhang Chengwang actually used this road to search for troops as much as possible, but unfortunately, the success later failed, which also led to the current situation of emptiness in the cities of the southern province.

After making a big turn, Zheng Yuanyun, Ma Chong and other hundreds of elite soldiers came to the side of this main road.

Looking around, as Ma Chong said, there are no obstructions on both sides of the road, and the road looks very empty, which can be described as unobstructed.

This is actually very easy to understand.

In some areas with frequent warfare, the defenders will mostly choose to plant dense forests according to the plan. Although these dense forests can be used by both the enemy and the enemy, as the defenders, they are more aware of the topography of the dense forest and can even make advances in it. Some arrangements play the role of warning or ambush.

But Tianyuan City is really unnecessary here.

In this rear area, the ultimate goal is to transport enough troops, fast enough, and convenient enough to plant a dense forest to stop one's march?

That is impossible.

Furthermore, this road is on one side of Tianyuan City, which can be considered as a defensive force, but on the other side is a small stream. In addition to land transportation of troops, the waterway can also provide some support. This way, it is even more unnecessary. Block one's own vision.

Therefore, as Ma Chong said, Zheng Yuanyun observed for a long time and came to this conclusion that there were no ambushes on both sides of this road.

Compared with the heavily guarded Tianyuan City, this more important route of troop transportation is unprepared?

Even the necessary sentry checkpoints were not even there. They were just there, and at a glance, at the far end, you could even see a little shadow of the next city and the river chasing the city.

Is this serious?

Zheng Yuanyun frowned. How strange is this? This is clearly a trap, right?

But the effect of this trap is...

Zheng Yuanyun looked up, and from him he could clearly see the walls of Tianyuan City. As Ma Chong said, Tianyuan City was built on one side of the mountain, so there were only three gates for entry, and these three gates On the periphery of the city, a full circle of city walls were expanded, strengthening the originally weak Tianyuan City by more than one.

"Do you know how many troops there are in Tianyuan City at this moment?"

After pondering for a moment, Zheng Yuanyun asked.

"this…"

Ma Chong was embarrassed, "My lord, their peripheral wall has played a very good role as a Tibetan soldier. It is still impossible to infer how many troops there are in Tianyuan City."

This made Zheng Yuanyun feel dissatisfied.

After coming for so long, even before coming, the principle of scout first has been implemented. Therefore, the scout team of Ma Chong and others even arrived long before Zheng Yuanyun’s large army. However, in such a long time, He didn't even have a good probe of how many troops the opponent had.

If it was Xiao Du, he would definitely be able to give him a number!

Zheng Yuanyun sighed in his heart, knowing that he was dissatisfied and dissatisfied, and Ma Chongneng was able to detect this level of dissatisfaction. It was not bad for Ma Chongneng to figure out the deployment of Tianyuan City's forces. This was really difficult for him.

Ma Chong is not a professional scout, so he is not a professional scout. This is because Zheng Yuanyun was mentally prepared when he asked him to replace the position of scout chief. At this moment, he can’t say much. .

Furthermore, the outer wall of Tianyuan City was really cunningly built.

The wall built by Ouyang Li Xingren directly built a wall higher than the original wall on the periphery of Tianyuan City, and the two old and new walls were originally connected together, which formed a height difference. .

The defenders in Tianyuan City can hide on the old city wall. When you look up from your side outside the city, you can’t see this part of the defenders at all. Unless there is a battle, they will support you when the battle is fierce. And the head.

Therefore, at present, it is impossible to make a rough judgment by visually observing the number of defenders on the front of the city according to the usual habits, and then considering the other side's reserve forces, rotation of soldiers, and a series of factors.

In this Tianyuan City, perhaps one hundred thousand soldiers can be seen from the new city wall. Based on past experience, it can be roughly inferred that the number of defenders is around three hundred thousand.

With this move of Tibetan soldiers, it is hard to say whether the 100,000 is really 100,000, or if there is another 100,000 hidden on the old wall that they can't see.

The difference between the two is that they have twice the strength, and the effect they will have in battle is also completely different, which makes Zheng Yuanyun dare not take it lightly anyway.

Another function is that Tianyuan City has only three gates, and all three walls have this heightening design, so Zheng Yuanyun can’t tell which wall has fewer defenders and more. Can be a breakthrough for siege.

Regardless of the fact that the soldiers on the side of the city wall he is looking at at this time are more empty than the previous main city gate, but who can guarantee that once he uses this city gate as a breakthrough, there will not be a large number of soldiers on the old city wall Take the lead to sniper them?

Can't figure out the enemy's military deployment, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com This made Zheng Yuanyun unable to make a targeted siege plan.

After all, he has fewer troops than Ouyang rigorously. In order to siege a city, he would have to invest far more troops than the enemy. Without a judgement on the strength of his troops, he would not be able to attack the enemy’s weaknesses by superiority. Make his siege operations difficult.

And there is another point. The reason why Zheng Yuanyun wants to find out the total number of troops in Tianyuan City is also on this main route of troop transportation.

This road is unobstructed, it seems that he doesn't need to hit Tianyuan City at all, just pass directly from one side, and the other party can only stand by the head of Tianyuan City and send them away.

But the question is, this is clearly a trap of troop transportation. Can it go?

If he ignores Tianyuan City and chooses to drive straight in, the opponent can of course let them in, and then before He Zhucheng, Ouyang strictly leads people to double-team from behind, and unites with the defenders in He Zhucheng to give Zheng Yuanyun a heavy blow.

Without knowing the strength of Tianyuan City, Zheng Yuanyun would not be able to make an accurate judgment. Can he follow this road?
