After the battle in the east, Huan's army still has about 150,000 troops.
Fifteen thousand people, what a huge manpower.
It didn't take long at all, only a month or two, and the plank road was completed.
A wooden road winds up the cliff and goes deep into the cliff.
After the completion, Sun Qi immediately told Xiao Yuan the news.
But then there was no movement.
What did he mean by this? He obviously wanted Xiao Yuan to advance.
In the Huanjun camp, some generals were puzzled and couldn't help but said: "Commander Sun, this attack strategy is really the best strategy. Why give it to the Qin army? It's better for our army to fight by ourselves. We can easily capture Wutong, and then use Wutong to attack the enemy." Linliangdu."
"Liangdu is not that easy to fight. Xue Wu still has an army of 300,000. You have occupied Wutong. Can he not be anxious?" Sun Qi chuckled and said, "Let King Qin fight, he is the best." The anxious one."
At the same time, the Qin army camped.
The generals are also discussing this matter.
Jia You said: "Sun Qi's intention is obvious, just to let our army attack Wutong. When the time comes, Xue Wu will use all his troops to attack our army, and Huan's army can sit back and enjoy the results."
Analyzing the battle situation, Yanzhou is followed by Wutong. If Rao's attack succeeds, the 300,000 Liang troops will be surrounded in Yanzhou, and Wutong can directly reach Liangdu. Once this happens, Xue Wu will definitely ignore it. Regardless, they stormed Wutong. As for the Huan army, there was no way to care about it.
Sun Qi only had to stay behind and do nothing, just sit back and watch the battle between Qin and Liang.
When he thought of this, Peng Shuang couldn't help but said: "Sun Qi has such a big conspiracy."
"This is not a conspiracy, but a conspiracy." Xiao Yuan said, shook his head and said: "He is sure that we must march, because Huan Jun has enough time to delay, but we can't afford to delay."
What is a conspiracy? It means that you are clearly being set up, but you still have to take advantage of it.
Due to Wu Chu, Xiao Yuan was helpless and urgently needed to defeat Liang State, so he had no choice.
Two days later.
Under the cliff, the plank road is connected to the ground.
Looking from a distance, it is hanging in mid-air, connected to the mountain wall on one side, and the abyss on the other side. It is not without danger.
When the Qin army arrived, Xiao Yuan first stepped up and stepped on it twice. Then without any hesitation, he waved his hand and said: "Let's go!"
Following his order, the Qin army formed a long queue and began to follow closely.
Half an hour later, on the cliff, as far as the eye could see, there were all black armor and red tassels.
A regular plank road should have railings on one side to prevent accidentally falling off the cliff, but due to military reasons, these are obviously too late.
Fortunately, the width of the plank road is enough to accommodate two or three people side by side, and the wooden boards are fixed by nails and are not loose. The ancient plank road can be used for many years and is very strong.
But even so, looking at the bottomless abyss on one side, Xu Hu couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, be careful..."
Xiao Yuan was walking at the front. After hearing his reminder, Shangguan Wenruo immediately said: "General Xu, hurry up and walk in front of the king."
"Yes, yes." Xu Hu also responded.
Knowing that they were worried about him, Xiao Yuan smiled without any pretense, leaned against the mountain wall, and let Xu Hu walk in front.
"Soldiers, please be careful—"
"There are no guardrails on the plank road. Don't let your feet slip. Please look after you before and after -"
In this way, the team moved neither too fast nor too slowly, and in the afternoon, they finally passed through this cliff-top mountain range.
Xiao Yuan and some generals were the first to arrive on the ground. The soldiers behind them continued, and a few people came to one side and stood there to discuss.
"Get the map."
After a while, the map was handed over, Xiao Yuan unfolded it, holding one side with his left hand, and Xu Hu held the other side.
The generals gathered in front of the picture. Xiao Yuan looked at it for a while, then reached out and pointed at a place: "We should be here now, about fifty miles away from Wutong."
"But we can't go like this. In order to achieve the surprise effect, we have to make a big circle."
"from here."
As he spoke, his finger also drew a half-arc on the map.
After hearing this, all the generals nodded.
After confirming, Xiao Yuan put away the map and gave it to Wei Qing, then looked sideways at the soldiers who were still walking down, and then looked at the surrounding environment.
"This is a deep mountain rarely seen among humans. Let the soldiers who come down first clear the road and wait for the army to gather."
"promise!"
Two days later, somewhere in the forest outside Wutong.
If someone comes in at this time, they will definitely be shocked, because the entire forest is densely packed with Qin troops with black armor and red tassels.
It is still very far from the city gate, and separated by many hills.
But now it is approaching Wutong County.
Xiao Yuan had just looked at the map. After putting it away, he asked Lin Chu: "What's the current situation of Wutong?"
"According to our army's intelligence, there are Liang army's baggage troops in Wutong City, which are constantly transporting grain, grass and weapons to Yanzhou. Together with some local officers and soldiers, the total number of troops is at least several thousand."
Hearing the words, Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment, and Peng Shuang said: "Your Majesty, there are only a few thousand enemy troops in Wutong. The general suggested that we attack the city directly and attack this place in one fell swoop."
"Don't worry yet." Xiao Yuan raised his hand and said: "Once our army appears, Wutong will definitely close the city gate immediately and defend to the death."
"And we now have no ladders or siege equipment. Although we have a large number of troops, it is difficult to attack the city. If we cannot capture this place immediately, then the news will be sent back to Yanzhou and Xue Wu will support it with cavalry. The situation will be bad. "
Although the opponent only has a few thousand people, if they really hold on for one day, they will be doomed. Yanzhou is behind them, and Xue Wu can support them very quickly.
This risk cannot be taken.
Even if we want to attack, we must first cut down the trees and rush to the ladder.
However, after Xiao Yuan thought about it for a moment, he smiled and said, "Wutong is easy to destroy, and there is no need for an army at all."
As he said that, he also looked at Xu Hu and Peng Shuang: "You two, take off your armor, find a way to change into civilian clothes, disguise yourself as Wutong people, enter the city normally, and after arriving at the city gate, quickly kill the guards and control the city. Gate, our army will arrive soon, and as long as the Wutong cannot close the city, we can easily capture it."
After hearing what he said, Xu Hu and Peng Shuang couldn't help but look at each other, then they both clasped their fists and said, "I have the order!"
"Hurry up and get ready!" Xiao Yuan urged, fearing that things might change due to long nights and dreams.
Wutong Nai County came after Yanzhou. Because Xue Wu's army fully deployed in Yanzhou, it was not affected by the war. Therefore, there are still pedestrians entering and leaving the city gate on normal days, but it is not as lively as before.
The magistrate of Wutong County and some county officials did not think there would be any danger here, because there were 300,000 troops of our own country ahead.
