"General." The scout hurriedly replied: "The general who went north to Danshui set up a flag with the word 'Chen'. If you look closely, it is the captain Chen Zhang."
"Captain Chen Zhang doesn't have many outstanding achievements, but he has good water properties and knows hydrology. He is indeed the best candidate to block Dan Shui." Wang Hao on the side actively added.
"General going south." Seeing that Bai Qi had no intention of interrupting, the scout immediately continued to report: "It is the flag with the word 'Zhou', and it is the captain Zhou Qi. However, based on the military strength he leads and the number of generals under his command, or Has been promoted to general."
"How short-sighted!" Bai Qi complained unconsciously.
Everyone was a little confused when they heard this, and they all looked at Bai Qi, thinking that Bai Qi had something to say, but they didn't want Bai Qi to stop talking in just one sentence. Fortunately, Wang Lu was present, and only Wang Lu understood what Bai Qi meant.
Seeing everyone's confusion, Wang Lu had no choice but to take over Bai Qi's words and explain to the generals: "Zhou Qi is a person who has a strong body, a powerful body, and a courage that is invincible to ten thousand men. Born in the North, he is an expert in commanding cavalry in battle, and is highly trusted by Lian Po, making him a rare and capable general."
"Zhao Kuo's move may be to gradually cut off the power left by Lian Po." Another general finally understood.
"It's indeed a bit too hasty!"
"It's no wonder. With the war imminent, it is inevitable to change course."
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, but Bai Qi did not pay any more attention to it. He knew very well that ability cannot be developed in a short period of time.
"Are there any other abnormalities in the Zhao camp?" Bai Qi continued to ask the scout.
"Yes!" the scout hurriedly replied: "There are two abnormalities: First, shortly after the second quarter of Mao hour, a team of about two to three hundred people left the camp and headed northeast, in the direction of the old pass. Secondly, not long ago, hundreds of Zhao cavalry came out of the west gate of the camp and headed towards the barrier."
"What's the flag?" Wang Hao interjected and asked.
"Report to the general: The small group of Zhao troops heading towards Gu Pass did not raise their flags, but there were many strong and powerful soldiers among them. Our careful troops only looked around for a moment in the distance and were almost injured by their sharpshooters. Their elite soldiers It's obvious, so I'm reporting it here." After a pause, the scout continued: "In addition, if you look carefully from a distance, you can see that the head general's hair and beard are all white, so he must be quite old!"
"Oh?" Bai Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Lian Po?" Wang Hao couldn't help but exclaimed, and then looked at Bai Qi, who frowned slightly and was thinking a little.
"If Lian Po really ran away, Zhao Jun would have cut off one of his arms."
"Lian Po's departure is expected. How can Lian Po obey the orders of a young boy!"
Bai Qi was still considering the accuracy of the news, while the Qin generals below had already begun discussing the possibility of Lian Po running away.
Ignoring everyone, Bai Qi stared deeply at the map and quickly calculated in his mind. Obviously, this news was more important than the scouts imagined, even more important than the previous news.
As a general, Bai Qi knows very well how much influence an excellent general, especially one who has experienced hundreds of battles, has on combat!
Just imagine, if Lian Po was guarding the west bank camp when Zhao Jun attacked, he might not be able to break through it. Even Lian Po's dissuasion at a critical moment might make his long-awaited plan come to nothing.
But if Lian Po really leaves in anger, then the only opponent left is young Zhao Kuo! That doesn’t make me want to squeeze it flat or round it.
Combined with the news that Zhou Qi was sent out to transport grain, it is not impossible but very possible for Lian Po to leave in anger.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi no longer hesitated and ordered to the messenger on the side: "Quickly order the detailed work of Guguan to check whether the general coming out of the east is an honest man at all costs. At the same time, order the detailed work of the King of Han's camp to cooperate in the search for Lianpo." Quite down."
"At any cost!" Bai Qi emphasized again.
Faced with Bai Qi's repeated emphasis of "at all costs", the herald could naturally feel the determination to win. He immediately agreed and rushed out of the tent to deliver the order.
"Ignore those going to the old pass for now, but what about those coming to the barrier?" Bai Qi asked again.
"General: Those who came to the fortress were lightly armed and did not raise any flags, and because they were in the key defensive areas of the Zhao army, it was difficult to conduct detailed operations..." The scout's voice became smaller and smaller, and when he looked up slightly, he saw that I saw that Wu Anjun's face was already turning pale.
The scout's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately added: "However, careful investigation revealed that before the team enters the barrier, the guard of the barrier will personally greet them."
"Oh!" Bai Qi nodded slightly, obviously he had already made up his mind about this passerby.
"Perhaps Zhao Kuo is here to survey the terrain and make preparations for crossing the river?" a Qin general said slowly.
"That makes sense!" Another Qin general agreed.
When Bai Qi heard this, he waved his hand calmly, signaling the scouts to step back. It was obvious that the scouts had completed their mission, and the ensuing military discussion involving the deployment of his own troops was no longer suitable for the scouts to continue listening.
The scout understood and understood that his mission was completed. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and was thankful that the general was not angry. He took a deep breath and slowly exited the camp.
Seeing that the scouts had withdrawn, Bai Qi immediately asked the generals: "According to the scouts' investigation, we can basically confirm that Zhao has fallen into our king's counterinsurgency plan, and Zhao Kuo has replaced Lian Po in the Hanwangshan camp. Military power. So, please tell me how Zhao Jun will move in the next step."
"Judging from the various signs that Zhao Jun carried out food with great fanfare, stopped the flow of Danshui, and Zhao Kuo went to investigate in person, it is very likely that Zhao Jun will attack the west bank barrier I built in the near future!" A Qin army general met with the military god and asked him to discuss it. , said quickly
"We must attack, but what about time? What about intensity?" Another general thought for a moment and responded.
"Is it possible that they are retreating? We retreated to the Bailishi Great Wall defense line. Our troops continued to press forward, but there was still a confrontation. Zhao Kuo could not explain to the country." A captain shook his head and denied.
"However, if there is no Danshui barrier to block it and our army follows and attacks, the Zhao army will inevitably suffer huge losses. Although Zhao Kuo has no combat experience, he is also familiar with military books, so he will not arrange it like this." Another person. The captain denied.
After hearing this, the generals nodded one after another. It seemed that Zhao Jun's attack was already certain. But Bai Qi didn't think so.
"What if Zhao Kuo wanted to imitate Lian Po's empty warehouse leader?" Bai Qi suddenly asked.
"The strong man broke his arm?" Wang Hao asked in surprise.
