By saying this, he was tantamount to directly selling Peng Shuang and the five thousand soldiers to create opportunities for himself to advance.
It can also be said that the strategy of siege and reinforcements was Su Yi's chess move for Chen Tai. It was just a bait.
Now the Shu army is besieging Rongcheng and there are no troops stationed elsewhere. They thought Su Yi would save them, but the latter was as hard as a stone on the battlefield.
The intention was obvious, and everyone was dumbfounded after listening to it.
One of them trembled and said: "General, those are five thousand soldiers. Without reinforcements, the whole army may be annihilated! And General Peng Shuang will be the general of our Qin army. How will the lord explain it at that time?"
When Su Yi heard him mention Xiao Yuan, his heart sank. This was his only worry.
Peng Shuang followed Xiao Yuan, fought all the way, and made great achievements. He is also a general of the Qin army. If he is tricked, then when the lord arrives...
Thinking of this, Su Yi felt a little scared. He definitely respected and feared Xiao Yuan, and his loyalty was unquestionable. But it was impossible not to trick Peng Shuang, because only the above as bait could truly attract the Shu army. It made Chen Tai feel that he couldn't help himself.
After being silent for a while, he said: "For the sake of overall victory, I believe that the Lord will understand."
As he spoke, he continued: "I am the commander-in-chief of this department. The military order my lord has given me is to use my own troops. Now, the military order I am giving you is to abandon Rongcheng immediately and march towards Fuling!"
"But General!" the general said anxiously, still wanting to persuade.
"It's nothing!" Unexpectedly, Su Yi interrupted him directly and said coldly: "There is no undead person in war!"
"This is a military order!"
His words choked everyone back. In the army, military orders are more important than anything else. The generals had no choice but to look at each other and could only clasp their fists and say, "Yes..."
Su Yi directly abandoned Peng Shuang's troops and began to take a detour and attack Fuling. His orders were cold-blooded and decisive.
Two days later, Chen Tai arrived.
The Shu army's strategy of siege and reinforcements had already been implemented and well-arranged. At this time, Chen Tai was also waiting for the news to come back.
In the military tent, he was full of joy and said with a smile: "Do you think the Qin army in Rongcheng is scared to death?"
"Of course, I have 40,000 troops besieging the city, which is nearly eight times the enemy's. No matter how brave the Qin army is, with only a few thousand troops, how can they not feel frightened." General Youbiao received it.
Another person said: "Presumably, the letter asking for help from Rongcheng has already been sent to Su Yi. It's just that two days have passed and we haven't seen the reinforcements yet. It's a bit strange..."
"Huh? Don't worry." Chen Tai waved his hand and said confidently: "According to our army's intelligence, the person stationed in Rongcheng is General Peng Shuang of the Qin Army. Even if he, Su Yi, is the chief general of the Qin Army, he can be safe. Dare you not save me?"
As soon as he said this, someone immediately echoed: "The general is right. Peng Shuang followed the Lord of Qin and fought all the way. He had a very high status in the Qin army. Su Yi could not abandon him, and he did not That courage, otherwise, Lord Qin will definitely punish him."
"That's right." Chen Tai nodded repeatedly and said, "Now, we just need to wait for the news. As soon as Su Yi's reinforcements arrive, they will be ambushed by our army. By then, we can annihilate these groups without any effort." Qin Army."
When he said this, the spies suddenly shouted urgently from outside:
"Report~~~~~~"
Following the cry, a spy ran in quickly. As soon as he knelt down on one knee, but before he could speak, Chen Tai couldn't help but took two steps forward and asked first, "Has Su Yi been ambushed? "
"No...it's not..." the spy shook his head: "I just found out that Su Yi, Su Yi is no longer in Fucheng..."
"What?" After hearing this, Chen Tai frowned and quickly asked: "What is going on! Didn't he support Rongcheng!?"
"Yes, yes." The spy swallowed and stammered: "Su Yi's army took a detour. By the time we found out, it was already dozens of miles away. From the looks of it, it should be... It should be heading towards Fuling."
"What did you say!?" Chen Tai's eyes widened suddenly and he grabbed the spy by the collar: "How dare you lie about the military situation!?"
"General...General, this kind of military information, no matter how brave you are, you won't dare to talk nonsense..." The spy's face turned pale with fright.
"Ah!!" After hearing what he said, Chen Tai roared angrily, then pushed the spy away and roared: "Crazy! Su Yi must be crazy! This is impossible!"
He was originally full of confidence, but now that he received such news, he didn't want to believe it.
To besiege a city for reinforcements, you have to surround an extremely important place in order to ambush the reinforcements, but obviously, for Su Yi, Rongcheng can be abandoned directly.
The art of war is dead, but the people who use it are alive.
At this time, a Shu army general also swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "General...General, what should we do now?"
"Su Yi is hateful!" Chen Tai had a sullen face. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Attack Rongcheng first!"
"Yes, general, Su Yi's army is heading towards Fuling. If our army does not return to support, Fuling will be lost and the consequences will be disastrous." General Youbia reminded.
"Is it too late to come back for reinforcements now? If the thousands of Qin troops in Rongcheng are not wiped out, wouldn't they be hanging swords above their heads! Kill them first!" Chen Tai said angrily: "Capturing and killing General Peng Shuang can also be done Deter the Qin army!"
"Send the order! Move back the ambush troops, assemble an army of 50,000, and launch a strong attack on Chengdu immediately!"
"No!" All the generals responded in unison.
In the afternoon of that day, 50,000 Shu troops began to launch a fierce attack on Rongcheng.
The disparity in strength between the two sides was tenfold, but the Qin army defended the city gates and refused to give an inch.
When it comes to the bravery of the soldiers below, how could the Shu army be better than the Qin army? The Qin army back then had no food, grass or weapons, so they could go into battle bare-chested and eat grass to fight.
Especially fierce fighting, which is what the Qin army is best at fighting. The more fierce the fighting, the more ferocious the army can be stimulated.
As the battle began, soldiers from both sides began to shed blood at the city gates. Peng Shuang had already gone to the front line and commanded the battle at the top of the city.
"withstand!"
"Hold it!"
He held a sword in his hand and kept shouting. As soon as he finished speaking, a stray arrow shot out. Peng Shuang knocked it away with his sword. At the same time, he grabbed the general's neck and asked with a glare:
"The reinforcements haven't arrived yet! Didn't I already ask you to send a message to Su Yi?"
"General... General, Su Yi... General Su Yi led his army to Fuling and abandoned my troops..." The general returned with a trembling voice.
"What did you say!?"
"General, we... I'm afraid we don't have any reinforcements..."
"Ah!!! Su Yi harmed me! Su Yi harmed me!" Peng Shuang was furious, and then shouted sharply:
"Kill! Kill for me! I would rather die than let Rongcheng die!"
