The Three Kingdoms

"Yes!" Gregor was still very convinced of William, and he gave Sam a hard look before sitting down.

"Sam, how sure are you that the Eastern Devils will come in without hesitation?" William asked.

"They will definitely come in!"

Sam said confidently: "These demons from the east have a very persistent belief that they will take Britain from us at the cost of casualties, so they will definitely come in, even if they know there is a trap!"

"So confident?"

"I am confident in my judgment!"

"very good!"

William stood up and said, "Give me an order. From tomorrow onwards, the army will start playing and retreat. Every day, the troops will withdraw ten miles and retreat towards Hadrian's Great Wall!"

"Yes!"

Now that William has given the order, the generals will follow the order regardless of whether they agree or disagree.

……

The next morning, the sun rose in the east and the sky was clear.

On the surface of the sea, one after another of the waves fluctuated, and they were constantly hitting the sound of warships, making a pleasant sound of turbulent waves hitting the shore.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

He Qi put down a few defense maps in his hands, pinched the bridge of his nose with both hands, he hadn't slept all night, his face looked a little tired.

Last night, he first discussed with a group of army commanders how to communicate the combat order and various contingency measures, and then discussed the next strategic deployment with Huang Gai, Zhang Yan, Zang Ba and others. woke up.

"Report to the commander-in-chief that the Roman army on the coast has suddenly withdrawn!"

"what?"

When He Qi heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, his drowsiness dissipated, and he fixed his gaze on the messenger.

"Report to the commander-in-chief that the Roman army defending on the coast suddenly withdrew all their troops in the early morning of this morning. Now there is not a single Roman appearing in the military camp on the coast. The scout battalion sent more than a dozen groups of spies. It's an empty battalion!"

"The Roman army actually withdrew?"

He Qi's eyes gathered a strange light.

The Roman army will certainly not withdraw its troops for no reason, there must be some reason for it.

"Let the scout battalion keep watching!"

"promise!"

After the scouts left, He Qi's thoughts were a little confused.

"Withdraw troops at this time?"

"Not quite right!"

He pondered for a long time, and summoned the commanders of the three major armies to discuss together.

"Do you think we should attack?"

He Qi asked.

He is a calm general, but he does not lack the enterprising spirit, so he can stand out among the many army commanders, and was entrusted by Sun Quan with the important task of leading the hundreds of thousands of troops in the third theater to fight.

But this time, he did hesitate a bit.

"Must attack!"

Huang Gai said: "Our goal is to take back Britain. If we don't land, how can we take it back!"

"But we must be careful, today's battle is the best lesson, we can't be fooled a second time!" Zhang Yan clenched his fists and said every word.

"Commander-in-Chief, an attack is inevitable!"

Zang Ba thought for a while, and said: "But we must maintain the rhythm, maintain our own combat rhythm, whether we should advance or retreat, we should proceed according to our own plan, and we should not be affected by them. After all, our strength cannot let us Open and close battle!"

He Qi paced back and forth, thinking and thinking, and finally said: "Zhang Yan, you will continue to lead the army to land tomorrow. Remember, if you encounter obstacles, don't be reluctant to fight. You should return to the sea immediately. Huang Gai will lead the army to support you, and you will not be caught. Besieged!"

"promise!"

Zhang Yan nodded and took the order to leave.

"Huang Gai!"

"commander!"

"Give me a firm eye on the Roman Navy, if you dare to show your head, you will fight!"

"promise!"

"Zang Ba!"

"exist!"

"You are personally responsible for the food and grass transported from the United States and Indian States, and guarantee our maritime food roads. I am still a little worried about the others. Once they land and fight, the food roads will become our biggest gap."

"Yes!"

The injury has not healed, and the Flame Legion is still resting. Zang Ba knows that he can't go to the frontline battlefield now, and he is also very happy to get a task of transporting food.

……

For the next whole month, the battle between the Wu army and the Roman army was maintained in the northern part of Britain, over the entire ground of Scotland.

Wu Jun did not dare to advance aggressively, so the offensive was very slow.

While maintaining their strength, the Roman army faced the battle leisurely, fighting and walking.

A tug-of-war situation was formed between the two sides. Once the army encountered each other, either you would advance and we would retreat, or I would advance and you would retreat. This kind of weird battle was constantly repeated.

Gradually He Qi began to come back to his senses.

"This is to lure the enemy deep!"

In the first ordinary city in the northwest of Britain, He Qi looked at the map of Britain, his eyes were as deep as an abyss, and the corner of his mouth showed a murderous intent inadvertently: "Once we go deep into their predetermined location, they will start storming Attack, and they are not simply preparing to defeat us, but to annihilate us!"

If you just want to defeat them, as long as you block them on the battlefield on the coast and don't give them any chance to land, you have already defeated them.
