Through a series of virtual and real arrangements, Guo Jia successfully made the Japanese commander determine that the Han army's attack target was Fukuoka. However, in case of prevention, the Japanese did not mobilize the troops from Itoshima to go north to provide assistance. However, this level of response was naturally within Guo Jia's budget.

On November 21, 2018, Guangxi, it was sunny.

After confirming the final arrangement of the Japanese, Guo Jia's army was dispatched and along the crack that Fang Zhiwen's cavalry tore open in advance, swept across the fortress group north of the small city in one fell swoop, pushing the front line outside the range of the city defense cannons on the small city wall.

The Han army's surprise attack caught the Japanese off guard. The Fukuoka Battle, which was originally prepared, suddenly changed direction, and the war preparations for the original war immediately became chaotic. The Japanese were born with a problem, that is, their ability to adapt to changes was insufficient, and they were more accustomed to acting according to the scheduled plan.

The sudden change in the war situation made the Japanese confused for a while, and then mobilized troops to go south to support the small town under siege.

As for the small town, the Han army was digging tunnels and piled up earth walls in an orderly manner. There was no way. Who said that their long-range weapons were not powerful? They could only use this method to send the long-range troops within the strike range.

Fortunately, the Japanese pirates' cavalry were also weak. After they left the city and were almost wiped out, they honestly never dared to leave the city again.

The Han army slowly built fortifications outside the city. The Japanese pirates in the city could only fire randomly, on the one hand, they gave themselves courage, and on the other hand, they also hoped that they could catch dead mice. It would be cheap to conceal a few casualties, but this kind of luck is absolutely rare.

In fact, Guo Jia was also bluffing at this time. It was impossible for Guo Jia to mobilize so many troops. Moreover, the battle for fortresses on the periphery has not yet ended completely. Fang Zhiwen's cavalry unit is still carrying the powerful Yi Ren troops on the periphery to accelerate the cleaning of the stubborn fortresses.

However, the calmer Guo Jia was at the city, the more the Japanese pirates in the city believed that the Han army was very sure that they came to attack their strong city, but they did not expect that Guo Jia was simply performing tactical deception.

Fortunately, the Japanese pirates in Fukuoka seemed to have reacted much slower than expected, and they sent reinforcements only a day later. This gave Guo Jia a whole day to completely eliminate the unstable factors in the north of the small town. At the same time, Fang Zhiwen's troops were also drawn out.

Thirty miles south of Guanyin Mountain. This is a hilly area and is not very suitable for cavalry activities, but there is no problem for Fang Zhiwen's guards. Because their war horses can be received in packages at any time. Among this 4,000 guards, 1,500 are general-level soldiers, with a proportion of officers and soldiers as high as two-fifths.

"Master, why haven't you come yet?"

"Who knows, but this is said that the Japanese habits are like this. They like to take risks strategically, be too cautious in tactical terms, and like to follow the rules. So it is understandable to be slower."

"My lord knows Japanese people very well!" Zhen Xiang said in surprise while chewing the stems of hay in his mouth.

"Haha, Xue Yin said. But it wasn't very obvious in previous battles? Don't you think their response speed is slow?"

"Sometimes, sometimes, there are people who are quick to respond."

"No, people are still virtuous and foolish, there will always be some differences."

"hey-hey."

"Here, Feiying has discovered the enemy's scouts, sent orders to kill the opponent's scouts, and destroyed the enemy's eyes and ears!"

"promise!"

"Lord, let's fight?"

"Catching is just a side attack, going around the south, launching an attack from the direction of the Xiachuan Valley and evacuate."

The killing of the Japanese scouts quickly alerted them, and the troops became more and more careful in their marching.

Although Fang Zhiwen's attack from the river valley to the south surprised the Japanese, he did not panic. Instead, he kept his formation tightly and used shields and supplies as barriers, and soon arranged an infantry formation.

Fang Zhiwen did not attack the Japanese formation, but maintained the enemy's range, swept across the river valley from east to west. After the precise shooting caused heavy casualties to the inexperienced enemy, he turned around and opened the distance again, and made another crossing from west to east. Seeing that the enemy had prepared artillery, Fang Zhiwen withdrew from the range of the artillery and then carried out heavy crossbow shooting attacks in the distance.

Originally, the damage that this kind of attack could cause was very limited. After all, there were high-level generals among the opponents, and the enemy's offensive and defensive attributes were not bad, so the effect of non-precision attacks would naturally not be ideal.

However, Fang Zhiwen's skills are very scary. Every time he uses the fire shooting and arrow rain skills, he is full of sorrow and can cause heavy casualties to the enemy. If he is passively beaten, the Japanese will definitely not do it. The Japanese in the front team defend on the spot, while the Japanese in the team have already spread to both sides, trying to bypass the river valley, and the Japanese in the front team form an encirclement of Fang Zhiwen.

Seeing this, Fang Zhiwen immediately led his army to evacuate, but Fang Zhiwen did not run far away, but rushed south towards the surrounding Japanese. After another round of emergency attacks, the Japanese on the way also forced the Japanese on the way to stop. However, the north side wanted to surround Fang Zhiwen's retreat to the west.

Fang Zhiwen simply led his troops to continue southward and towards the Japanese back team. The large army of hundreds of thousands of people had a long team when marching, and Fang Zhiwen wanted to find more opportunities to raid.

Fang Zhiwen has strong combat power, but there are not many troops. The Japanese commander still judged that the other party was restraining the troops and that the enemy was building a siege under the city of a small city. The troops here must be blocking the aid. If you think so, you should try to eat the aid first. After all, the situation in the small city is not that bad, and it will definitely be no problem to hold on for ten days and a half months.

Therefore, the Japanese were not in a hurry, but were patiently entangled with Fang Zhiwen. The Japanese were almost disbanded in teams, and they encircled and blocked Fang Zhiwen within a considerable range. Unfortunately, Fang Zhiwen's cavalry was very fast and could cross mountains and ridges at any time. Unless the Japanese blocked the surrounding mountainous areas, it would be a dream to block Fang Zhiwen.

After chasing for a whole day, the Japanese commander found that the cavalry was too slippery and could not catch them at all. He was fooled by others for a day, with nearly 10,000 casualties, and he didn't even touch a hair from the other party, and wasted a day in vain. Although time was not that important, it was obviously not a good idea to continue.

So the Japanese contracted their troops and built camps to the south based on the fortress, and no longer got entangled with Fang Zhiwen.

However, Fang Zhiwen did not intend to calm down just now. In the evening, Fang Zhiwen appeared outside the camp. After clearing the enemy's light and dark whistles, a thousand stone-cattering machines started to ignite the Japanese camp. Seeing that the Japanese were dark outside, they did not dare to attack in a large group, so they could only send small-scale combat troops. However, these small troops composed of samurai and ninjas really did not have much effect in front of the regular army. Moreover, Fang Zhiwen's troops had extremely strong abilities in reconnaissance.

When the Japanese saw that the troops they sent were all hitting dogs but not returning, the enemy still moved from time to time and launched an attack on the battalion. The Japanese could not do so, so they could only use artillery to fight back in the estimated direction and continuously drove Fang Zhiwen's troops away.

The Han army withdrew until dawn was almost dawn. The Japanese camp was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder and tinder oil. The camp was in a mess. From time to time, you could see horses and charred corpses of indigenous people. This scene would not make people feel comfortable no matter what.

The itinerary of the second day was like a copy of the first day. However, this time, the Japanese did not pursue Fang Zhiwen's troops desperately, but drove them away and let the large troops pass through. The journey was smoothly reached a valley called Dongchuan, and suddenly there was a gong on the mountains on both sides, and countless stone oil tanks were smashed down. Then a fireball was thrown down. Under the terrified gaze of the Japanese, the entire valley was immediately burned into a sea of ​​fire.

In the dry mountains in winter, the Japanese gunpowder exploded and the tincture oil thrown by the Han army helped to burn. The Han army, which had originally put on the mountain, could not stand the heat, so they had to evacuate to the east and by the way, surrounded the Japanese troops that had not yet entered the valley. The next one was an encirclement and annihilation battle.

It turned out that Fang Zhiwen tried every means to delay the other party yesterday, just to make time for Guo Jia's troops to go north and the troops hidden in Guanyin Mountain to make time. Fang Zhiwen suddenly hunted the other party's scouts and ninjas, and also to make the Japanese people lose their vigilance. With the ambush hidden skills of Guo Jia and Li Ru, he finally successfully lured the Japanese pirate reinforcements into the trap. Moreover, the effect of this Hell of Fire is surprisingly good.

Subsequently, Guo Jia's ambush was launched in a series of times, and the arrival of Yi Ren troops surrounded the remnants of the Japanese reinforcements. The Han army, which occupied the advantage of the geographical advantage, fought very bravely. In addition, Fang Zhiwen's cavalry repeatedly attacked the enemy's key points, soon the remaining Japanese pirates were also dispersed and divided and annihilated.

The battle ended until night. During this period, the enemy troops in the small city once planned to leave the city to support, but the speed was delayed by Taishi Zhaorong and the Inhuman Cavalry. By the time they arrived, the battle had come to an end. Guo Jia could still distribute troops to try to eat the hundreds of thousands of troops in one bite.

Fortunately, the Japanese commanders were very alert. When they discovered the strange changes in the enemy's blocking intensity, they immediately issued an order to retreat. As a result, Fang Zhiwen and Taishi Zhaorong were chased back to the small town, and the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers were left behind along the way.

After cleaning the battlefield, Guo Jia returned to the small town and surrounded the small town. Now the situation in the small town is really critical. If reinforcements are to be sent from the direction of Guanxi, it will take half a month later. If the surrounding troops are mobilized to retract back to the small town, they may be subject to similar situations. But if the small town is not rescued, the western part of Jiuzhou will be divided and the Han army will gain a stable rear.
