Lin Feng thought for a while and said: "When I sent out troops, I mobilized the people from Heibingtai to stir up news in the capital of Gaochang State and spread the news about Qin's attack on Gaochang State. At the same time, I also spread the news that Ma Yan represented Gaochang State and surrendered. Da Qin’s matter.”
"According to the information previously obtained, Qu Yan, the leader of Gaochang Kingdom, has great trust in Ma Yan. We may not be able to have any effect by spreading the news, but at least it can disrupt Gaochang Kingdom and make Gaochang Kingdom's people's hearts wander."
"It is foreseeable that Gaochang State will definitely send a large army to fight. So I think that there must be a battle on the border between Gaochang State and Daqin, especially in the area outside Yumen Pass. After we won this battle, the news spread to Gaochang State. Before The news spread will make people in Gaochang panic."
"It will be easy to destroy Gaochang."
"The key now is the battle to get out of seclusion. What do you think based on Zhang Xun's news?"
Lin Feng looked around at everyone.
Huan Suzhi and Cui Yuantu were counselors and made plans.
Meng Ao and Xun Peng were generals responsible for fighting the war, and they also had their own opinions.
Huan Suzhi took the lead and said: "Based on the current situation, I suggest that the troops be divided into two groups. With the strength of Great Qin, I have reason to believe that the Great Qin army can win in a single battle on the border of Gaochang State. But if the army of Gaochang State escapes, , may not be able to completely annihilate the enemy.”
"In order to completely annihilate Gaochang's army, I think we can detach a force. After leaving Yumen Pass, we will attack Kuruktag Mountain directly, cross the mountains, and go north to quietly kill Yiwu City behind Gaochang's army. "
"Considering the worst case scenario, if there is fighting at the junction of the two countries on the front line, Great Qin will not be able to win in one battle. This army of soldiers and horses can come out to cut off the food road, and even attack us from both front and rear. If Great Qin wins in one battle, Gaochang Kingdom will The army was defeated, so we used this group of troops to ambush and destroy Gao Changgui's fleeing troops."
"Competing for full success in one battle and destroying Gaochang's army."
"Gaochang is a small country with too many troops. As long as it wins one battle, it will be devastated in the follow-up."
Huan Suzhi said: "This is my suggestion."
After Cui Yuantu heard this, he said: "I agree with Mr. Huan's suggestion. This battle is not complicated. It just needs to be crushed. In terms of the number of troops, our Daqin has the advantage. In terms of the combat effectiveness of the army, Da Qin even crushed Gaochang."
Lin Feng's eyes turned to Meng Ao and Xun Peng, and asked: "What do you two think?"
Xun Peng said: "Grand Governor, I have nothing to say. I am willing to be the vanguard and go out of Yumen Pass first, go north to the territory of Gaochang Kingdom, and fight against Gaochang's army."
Meng Ao also immediately said: "Great Governor, I am willing to be the vanguard and fight against Gaochang's army first."
Neither Xun Peng nor Meng Ao paid much attention to Gaochang State, and both thought that Gaochang State's army was nothing more than fish on the chopping board.
In other words, whoever confronts Gaochang's army first will be able to win the battle glory first.
Therefore, both of them compete for the chance to play.
All eyes were focused on Lin Feng, while Huan Suzhi and Cui Yuantu had a hint of worry in their eyes.
It is not easy to be the commander of an army.
Everyone is vying to be first. Who do you arrange?
Lin Feng looked calm and said directly: "When I left Xianyang, His Majesty ordered that Da Qin's attack on Gaochang Kingdom would be a devastating victory. In this battle, there is no need to use the vanguard to fight first. The army continued to advance and attacked Yumen Pass. go."
"In addition, according to Huan Suzhi's proposal, a thousand fine cavalry will be sent around the territory of Yiwu City to serve as our surprise troops."
"We leave the pass and go north. After we get close to the Gaochang army, we must destroy the Gaochang army in one battle."
"You can only win this battle, not lose."
Lin Feng's eyes shone with light, and he was full of momentum. He said forcefully: "You have to compete for credit. When you get close to Gaochang State's army camp, who can be the first to break the defense line of Gaochang State's army? This is what you want to compete for. Just a mere A pioneer is not worth mentioning."
"I will obey my orders."
Xun Peng and Meng Ao looked at each other and answered in unison.
In the eyes of the two of them, they were even more motivated.
Defeated the Gaochang army in the first battle.
This is what the two think.
Lin Feng said again: "Meng Ao, you arrange a thousand fine cavalry to take Zhang Xun away tomorrow morning, take another road, fight to the rear of Gaochang's army and hide."
"Here!"
Meng Ao answered immediately.
After Lin Feng made the arrangements, Huan Suzhi and Cui Yuantu both breathed a sigh of relief. It involves Xun Peng and Meng Ao asking for war at the same time, and both of them serve under Lin Feng. If the arrangement is not good, the follow-up will be very troublesome. Not sending a vanguard for the time being was a clever move, but it inspired Xun Peng and Meng Ao's fighting spirit.
The army rested and after dinner, Lin Feng arranged for patrolling soldiers to rest early.
The next morning, early in the morning.
The army continued to set off, heading west from Guzang County and crossing Zhangye and Dunhuang counties. Finally, the army led by Lin Feng left Yumen Pass in the west in early March and went north along the road outside Yumen Pass, heading towards Yiwu City in the northwest. .
At this time, the army was already eager to fight. None of the soldiers of Great Qin were afraid, and they were all looking forward to a battle.
Da Qin must win!
This is the thought of all Qin soldiers.
One hundred and forty miles southeast of Yiwu City in Gaochang State is a vast area with sufficient water nearby, suitable for camping, and it is also the only way to Yiwu City. This area, unlike the south of Yiwu City, is completely deserted.
The army of Gaochang State is stationed here.
Originally, Ma Yan could station troops at the border of Gaochang State outside Yumen Pass, but the location was inappropriate and the distance was further, which increased the burden of logistical supplies.
This area is actually more suitable.
Therefore, the troops are stationed in Yiwu City.
As the commander-in-chief, Ma Yan led 8,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantrymen and settled down early after arriving here.
He waited for Lin Feng's army to approach.
Inside the Chinese army's tent.
Ma Yan is looking at the map. Although Ma Yan is a scholar, he actually once commanded an army. He led troops to fight and always liked to study maps. From the border between the two countries to the areas within the Gaochang Kingdom, Ma Yan was studying them all.
While Ma Yan was staring at the map and thinking, there was a burst of rapid footsteps, the tent curtain was lifted, and Mo Lihe hurriedly entered.
Mo Lihe looked a little excited and said: "Prime Minister, here we come. Lin Feng's army is already close to our camp, less than twenty miles away from us. It is estimated that they will reach us before this evening. Now, we are Send troops directly to fight, or temporarily guard."
Ma Yan thought for a while and asked, "Mo Lihe, what did you think about it?"
Mo Lihe is a general in the army. Ma Yan has been training Mo Lihe for a long time. There is no way, Mo Lihe is the tallest among the short ones, which is considered excellent. But compared to the general family background of Great Qin and Xia Kingdom, it is still far behind.
Mo Lihe chuckled and said: "Prime Minister, in my opinion, let's give it a try first, regardless of what happens to the Qin army? The humble plan is to arrange a group of cavalry to roam around Lin Feng's army to harass. Let's see. Lin Feng’s response.”
"If Lin Feng's team is weak, this team of cavalry will take advantage of the situation to disrupt and further wait for opportunities to kill some Qin soldiers. If Lin Feng arranges for an attack, our cavalry will seize the opportunity to defeat Lin Feng's cavalry first and give Lin Feng a heads-up. "
Mo Lihe said: "Take this opportunity to try Lin Feng's quality? He is talented and capable, but he may not be good at fighting. It is really a joke that the Emperor of Qin arranged for Lin Feng to lead the army."
"Okay, let's do it."
Ma Yan nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Arrange four hundred cavalry to go into battle quickly."
"Here!"
Mo Lihe answered directly.
As Mo Lihe went to make arrangements, more than four hundred Gaochang cavalry rushed out first and quickly headed towards Lin Feng's army.
The news was quickly discovered by the Qin Army's sentinels and returned to Lin Feng.
After Lin Feng said this, Meng Ao seized the opportunity and quickly called for battle: "Grand Governor, Gaochang State first sent cavalry to harass them. Please ask the Grand Governor for an order. In the end, you will send a team of cavalry to defeat them and give Gaochang State's cavalry a chance to defeat them." A lesson.”
Xun Peng also took the initiative and said: "Grand Governor, please give the Black Dragon Army of the last general a chance."
Both of them asked for a fight again.
With two armies here, there will naturally be a fight.
What is the opportunity to make meritorious deeds?
Fight for it on your own.
Lin Feng had a smile on his lips and said calmly: "General Meng, you are stationed in Liangzhou. You often send troops and have the opportunity to fight. The Black Dragon Army led by General Xun Peng rarely has the opportunity to go out to fight. This time, let him go first. Let’s test the situation in a battle? In addition, the next time we attack the camp of Gaochang army, you will lead the troops as the vanguard.”
"Here!"
Meng Ao answered directly.
Xun Peng felt happy, clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief, and promise to complete the task."
Lin Feng said: "I don't doubt the strength of the Black Dragon Army. What I need is to win beautifully and directly crush the opponent."
Xun Peng said: "Please wait and see, Grand Governor."
He quickly made arrangements, and within a short time, four hundred Black Dragon Army cavalry broke away from the army and quickly headed to the battlefield ahead.
At this moment, Xun Peng was also full of fighting spirit.
The Black Dragon Army must win!
