Today, Su Yi has already become famous all over the world, and is even listed as a famous general by the empire.
Some say that he used his army deceitfully.
Some say he is unreasonable.
Some people say that he likes to take risks in military expeditions.
Qin Wang Xiao Yuan once praised him as a military genius.
After comparing the map and explaining it, all the generals understood what he meant.
Goldman Sachs thought for a moment and then said: "But Commander Su, if this happens, wouldn't our army have made a wedding dress for the Ling Army?"
"Yes, Su Shuai." Someone agreed.
Su Yi waved his hand and said with a chuckle: "As a general, you should focus on the overall situation. The highest order we receive from the three armies, whether it is our army or the spirit army, is to eradicate the ghost army's stronghold. To join forces at Wuxia Pass, we only need to follow the strategic direction of your Majesty and ignore the rest. The achievements of the generals will not be erased by anyone."
Hearing what he said, everyone felt relieved, but someone immediately said: "Then, if our army moves to the northwest front, will Xuan Army be alone..."
Su Yi raised his hand to interrupt him and said: "Do you know why your Majesty let the Xuan Army take the southeast route? Because there is a big river there, blocking the main road. Only the Xuan Army is good at fighting across the river. So there is no need to worry over there, Yan Qi Heren is definitely not a vain person."
He is right. Xuanguo is located near the Yangtze River line and adjacent to Chu State. How could it not be good at water warfare?
After finishing speaking, he looked around and made a decision:
"Generals, obey the order!"
Everyone was shocked.
On Su Yi's side, he decided not to advance in a straight line, but to suddenly go up diagonally. After Rao attacked Pingyi, he cut off the Gui Clan's northwest line reinforcements and cooperated with the Ling Army to first clear all the way and then turn around to encircle the southeast.
After making the decision, of course he could not take away all the troops. In order to prevent the ghost army from counterattack, Goldman Sachs was left to lead 80,000 troops to garrison Tongcheng.
This tactical change was not only unexpected by the generals of the Qin army, but also by everyone, including Huang Zu. At this time, he did not know what Su Yi was going to do.
It is not difficult to see from this that Su Yi looks at the overall situation, or overall planning, on the battlefield, rather than the gains and losses in small battles.
At the same time, inside Wuxia Pass.
In the meeting hall, Urcha was sitting in the main seat directly above, with a frown on his face.
The lieutenant general said: "His Majesty the King has sent back a letter and agreed to the general's heavy cavalry reinforcements, but at the same time, he ordered our troops to hold on to Wuxia Pass. Huan Guo's side is almost unable to withstand it."
"I understand." Urcha said, then looked at the other person and said, "Tell me about the battle situation on the front line."
"Yes!" The ghost general in charge of military intelligence came out: "According to the current situation, the Qin and Ling armies have launched several strong attacks on our fortress. The Qin army, in particular, has put greater pressure on us. It has broken through the city and advanced all the way. The situation is Dangerous."
"As for the Ling Army, after conquering Licheng, they were about to march towards Pingyi. General Metz sent another message, requesting main support."
Hearing this, Urcha couldn't help but cursed: "Metz, you loser! You lost Licheng and just ran for your life, but now you still have the nerve to send a message!"
The military intelligence officer swallowed and bravely said: "But General, if we don't reinforce Pingyi, the northwest and central lines will be in danger."
Urcha cursed secretly, but in desperation, he could only say impatiently: "Immediately add 30,000 troops to Pingyi and 80,000 troops to the center line."
The total strength of the ghost army in the Wuxia Pass area is 300,000. Excluding the people in the outer strongholds, the main force that can be used as support at any time is about 150,000.
But after Urcha had mobilized so many people, the ghost army generals couldn't help but be startled. Someone immediately said: "General, with such reinforcements, Wuxia Pass doesn't have many troops, especially the middle line, which has 80,000 troops." The army, is it too much?”
"What do you know!?" Urcha glared at him: "The Qin army is regarded by the Central Plains countries as a tiger and wolf army. This army will be the main force of their coalition, so naturally they must be targeted specifically!"
"This..." Although the general felt it was reasonable, he was still worried: "Then, if something unexpected happens on the southeastern line..."
Hearing this, Urcha couldn't help but take a deep breath and turned to look at the general in charge of military intelligence.
The latter understood and said truthfully: "Now on the southeastern front, Xuan's army has not made any breakthroughs, and our army has not been defeated."
"Well, good!" Urcha gained some confidence: "Immediately send an order to the southeast fortress to guard the Linhe River crossing! We must not let the Xuan army cross the Linhe River!"
"yes!"
"After issuing a military order, we will increase our troops to support you!"
From the Ghost Army's point of view, there was actually nothing wrong with Urcha's decision.
In his mind, the three Allied forces should advance separately, but he never would have thought that Su Yi had given up on the center battlefield, so his 80,000 reinforcements were useless.
Under the highest military order of Wuxia Pass, the main force of the ghost army began to divide into two groups to support the strongholds behind Pingyi and Tongcheng respectively.
The deployment of troops by the commanders of both sides will have the greatest and most direct impact on the entire battlefield.
A few days later, on an important road leading from Wuxia Pass to Pingyi.
Here, there is a valley sandwiched between two mountains.
Since they want to block the ghost tribe's reinforcements, the Qin army naturally needs to set up an ambush in advance.
Under Su Yi's military order, this Rao Xi army marched under the stars and at night, won several days of food, and headed north lightly in order to compete with the ghost army for time.
It is very common for Qin soldiers to march and fight in a hurry, because many Qin generals are good at fighting evil battles, and marches that are several times more difficult than this have happened too many times before.
At this time, in the mountains on both sides, if you look up from the road below, there is not a single person in sight. But if you look down from the air, the mountains and plains are covered with black armor and red tassels.
Su Yi held a piece of weed in his mouth, put his hands behind his head, and was lying on a big rock. He asked casually: "Have you told Huang Zu about the situation here?"
"The letter has been sent, I believe Huang Zu has received it by now." Xu Rong returned beside him.
"Yes." Su Yi nodded, then fell silent, seeming to be concentrating with his eyes closed.
Xu Rong was a little anxious and couldn't help but said: "Su Shuai, we only brought a few days of dry food. If the ghost army doesn't come, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
Su Yi didn't even raise his eyelids, and said in a calm voice: "Don't worry, in your opinion, will the ghost army support Pingyi?"
"Should...you should be able to, right?" Xu Rong was not sure.
"You are not sure. In fact, in war, no one dares to be 100% sure, and I am the same." Su Yi said: "But the possibility is more than 70%, so we should use troops!"
Su Yi never fought a conservative war. Once the battlefield situation made him think that there was a fighting opportunity, he would definitely not hesitate.
This is why some people say that he likes to take risks in military operations.
