The position of head coach of the Qin Army.

Su Yi was pointing at the map with the King of Qin sword:

"After Li Ji learned that his retreat was cut off, he might give up the frontal battlefield, evacuate from Xuanshi territory, and turn to attack the east front, trying to break out from Daliang Mountain, because there are their food, grass and baggage there, and there are three barriers. Among them, the best choice.”

"Therefore, let General Goldman Sachs hold on to the barrier, occupy a favorable terrain, be condescending, use the high to defeat the low, and guard the exit."

"At the same time, in the middle of the night, our army can carry out large-scale ambushes on the Jin army at many strategic points, making them full of soldiers..."

As soon as he said this, a spy ran in quickly, knelt on one knee and said:

"Reporting to Commander Su, the Jin army has given up attacking the fortress, has withdrawn from the frontal battlefield, and is heading towards the east line, toward Daliang Mountain."

"Okay, I understand. Let's investigate again and report again." Su Yi waved his hand slightly.

"No!" The spy bowed and retreated.

At this time, a biased general said: "It seems that Su Shuai's prediction was correct. Li Ji really chose Daliang Mountain."

"Well..." Su Yi stared down at the map and murmured to himself: "He chose to go to Daliang Mountain, and he was undoubtedly seeking death."

late at night.

The Jin army was still marching, and the chaotic footsteps never stopped.

Li Ji was riding a war horse at the front of the team. Behind him were countless Jin soldiers, but people's faces were full of exhaustion because they had not eaten all day. .

The soldiers were listless, some were carrying flags, some were holding halberds, and some were holding torches.

While marching leisurely, a general suddenly discovered that there was a sharp arrow nailed to a small tree on the side of the road, and there seemed to be something like a strip of cloth on it.

"General, look quickly." The general pointed his arrow at him with sharp eyes.

"Huh——" Li Ji tightened the reins, and the large army behind him stopped. He also followed his fingers and looked at it, and then lightly smashed the horse's belly.

Seeing this, all the sergeants couldn't help but follow Li Ji and get closer.

The arrow had been nailed into the tree trunk, and there was indeed a small white strip of cloth inserted at the arrowhead. Li Ji frowned slightly, and out of curiosity, he immediately waved his hand forward: "Get it."

"No!" A soldier responded, stepped forward, pulled out the arrow, took off the cloth strip, and handed it to Li Ji respectfully.

The latter took it and looked closely at the torch, only to see a few small characters written on it:

There is a hidden danger here. If you don't believe it, you will know it right away.

When he saw these words, his eyes widened instantly, but before he could say anything, the sound of armor scraping could be heard in the surrounding mountains and forests, and then, a large rain of arrows swept over him!

Plop, plop!

This was really caught off guard. Due to hunger and a hard day's fighting, most of the Jin soldiers sat on the ground tired after stopping. There was no time to react at this time. In just a moment, the miserable howls were heard. one slice.

After such an unexpected incident, people's screams suddenly sounded. In panic, many soldiers hurriedly got up. But when they just got up, before they had time to stand firm, their bodies were already covered with arrows.

In the midst of the chaos, the deputy general of the Jin army, Li Ji, could not help but wave his sword and shouted at the same time:

"Quick! Heavy shield bearer! Protect the general -"

Under his order, rows of heavy infantry quickly gathered over, with vertical shields protecting the coach Li Ji behind them.

The latter was also a little stunned at this moment, but what followed was that he became angry from shame!

Because he felt that he was being played.

"Kill! Kill me!" Li Ji unsheathed his sword and started shouting hysterically.

But it was late at night, and they only knew that the other party was ambushing them in the mountains and forests on both sides, but they didn't know the exact number of people, let alone what the situation was.

Moreover, he was rushing from a low place to a high place and had to climb mountains. How could he possibly go up there!

In the middle of the night, if you want to climb a mountain, you have to light a torch, but the place where the torch is is also the place where the Qin army's arrows are most densely shot.

Under this situation, the Jin army was beaten around like headless flies. They could not find where the enemy was. They wanted to fight back, but they had no way of starting.

Let alone Li Ji's 70,000 troops, even if he had 200,000, if the attack continued like this, the whole army would probably be annihilated.

At this time, his deputy general couldn't help it and said anxiously: "General! The Qin army is disgusting. They set up an ambush in the middle of the night and were condescending. Our army cannot launch a counterattack at all. It is no longer suitable to stay here for a long time. If we delay any longer, the losses will be even more heavy." !”

His words finally made the extremely angry Li Ji calm down a little, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Su Yi kid! You and I are at odds with each other! Retreat! Get out of the ambush!"

"promise!"

"The general has an order! The whole army quickly rushed through the enemy ambush——"

The ambush did not last long. After the Jin army dropped some corpses and rushed through the ambush range, the Qin army also became silent.

The opponent's number was obviously small, but they had a geographical advantage and relied on the darkness of the night. This made Li Ji feel like he was being beaten in vain, but had nowhere to exert his strength.

After the chaos, another inspection revealed that the Jin army had lost about 900 soldiers and horses. Although it was not a lot, it still made Li Ji itchy with hatred.

But this small ambush did not end there. During the next march, the Jin army suffered another chaos. It was not until the third time that Li Ji saw the strips of cloth nailed to the tree trunk.

He didn't want to look at it, but he couldn't help but ask someone to take it.

At the same time, the entire army was ordered to be on alert, and the heavy shield bearers were all arranged in front, forming a tight shield formation.

At this time, a group of generals also gathered around Li Ji. The latter put a piece of cloth close to the torch, which read:

There is no ambush here, so you can camp safely and rest for a while.

Seeing this, Li Ji and the Jin army generals glanced at each other subconsciously. Then, his deputy general showed a complicated expression and said: "General, this..."

"Hmph! This little trick is ruining the morale of our army! Don't pay attention to it!" Li Ji was furious, crumpled the cloth into a ball, threw it on the ground and said: "Keep going! Get to the vicinity of Daliang Mountain as quickly as possible !”

"promise!"

Li Ji was so anxious because he no longer had any food and grass. If he stayed outside for a moment longer, he would be in danger.

Under his military orders, the Jin army continued to march hungry, but soon they were attacked by random arrows.

This time, Li Ji was no longer angry, but furious!

The soldiers of the Jin army, including all the grass and trees, would be frightened when they saw the shadow of the branches, thinking that it was the Qin army coming.

Under such torture of extreme mental stress and extreme physical hunger, there was no trace of morale left in the Jin army.

Li Ji, from the beginning, fell into the trap set by Su Yi step by step.
