Near Changgou, countless soldiers began to recede like a tide, and the trebuchets were also pushed back.
Seeing Huang Zu calling for gold, the deputy general said subconsciously: "Commander Huang, the long ditch has been leveled, why not take advantage of the situation to attack the city?"
"Forget it, the morale of our army is not good today, and it is getting late, so it is not suitable to attack again. Let's retreat first." After Huang Zu said this, he directly ordered the handsome car to be turned around and left here.
The first task of the coalition forces today is to complete the pre-war fortifications and prepare for the next all-out attack.
After the army retreated and returned to the camp, the generals naturally gathered together to begin a certain post-war summary.
Not long after, Bai Qin, the spirit general in charge of inspecting the damage, also walked in quickly.
At this time, all the senior generals of the Three Kingdoms had arrived. Seeing him, Huang Zu immediately asked, "How is it?"
Bai Qin cupped his fists and said, "Back to Commander Huang, our army lost more than 2,000 soldiers in today's battle. Five trebuchets were destroyed and two overturned. They can be repaired."
The heavy crossbow was not always successful in destroying the trebuchet. After hearing his report, Huang Zu frowned slightly.
Hanzhou said: "After two days, a simple ravine has reduced our army's combatable troops by nearly ten thousand, and the siege equipment has been damaged. This temporary defense line set up by Su Yi is very How clever.”
"Yes." Huangfu Ye followed: "Su Yi took advantage of Qin Nu's strength before the war."
"Hmph!" Ye Gui sneered: "You're just a rat, do you think you can stop our 900,000-strong army! If the Qin army is really capable and courageous, then let's fight on and off!"
With 300,000 people guarding the gate and facing an army of 900,000 people, how could it be possible to turn it on and off? Isn’t that nonsense?
When others heard this, they felt that Ye Gui was in a bad mood and was just complaining.
In fact, Ye Gui himself is like this.
But when Huang Zu heard this, his heart moved and he couldn't help but said: "What did you just say?"
"Ah?" This sudden question made Ye Gui stunned for a moment, then he realized it and said angrily: "I said that the Qin army is all rats, and they don't dare to switch on and off and fight us head-on."
"That's not right." Huang Zu said with a serious look on his face: "Su Yi is always cunning in his military use and never follows common sense. Do you think he will be dangerous in his military operations?"
When all the generals heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then Han Zhou said: "What Huang Shuai means is..."
"What do you think our army is planning now?" Huang Zu asked.
"Of course, let's have a good night's rest to recharge our batteries and wait for the fierce attack tomorrow." A general continued.
"That's right!" Huang Zu looked around and said coldly: "Our army thinks so, and Su Yi must also think so. With his military ability, I predict that it is very likely that he will be unprepared and counterattack." , attack our army camp at night!"
What?
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.
General Xiang Mo sneered: "The Qin army only has 300,000 troops, which is not enough to defend the city. How dare they go out to attack our 900,000-strong army? Is Commander Huang overly worried?"
"Haha." Huang Zu smiled and said: "Su Yi is good at his power and attack. He is not a stickler. Once he is allowed to seize the opportunity, he will never miss it. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you A hundred battles can be fought without danger. As a general, you must take care of yourself."
The reason why Huang Zu is a veteran commander on the battlefield, able to win more than he loses, is firstly due to his rich battlefield experience, and secondly, it is also related to his combat characteristics.
Whenever he faced a battle, he would first study the enemy commander's personality, habits, strengths and weaknesses.
After he finished speaking, Huangfu Ye also nodded slowly and calmed down: "Well... what Huang Shuai said about the profound art of war is indeed something to be considered."
Hanzhou said: "When planning military affairs, one should consider the danger of defeat. I fully agree with this. We can take certain precautions or invite you to enter the urn. Regardless of whether Su Yi comes or not, or whether we can produce this strange army, we will arrange it here. No There will be harm.”
After receiving the agreement of the two of them, Huang Zu immediately said: "Since you two have no objections, let's arrange this matter immediately."
"In Huang Shuai's opinion, is it a preset ambush?" Han Zhou asked.
"Well..." Huang Zu muttered: "Looking at the history of the Qin army's wars, the King of Qin has cut off people's food and grass many times and used the food road to put the enemy into despair. If Su Yi made a surprise attack, he would probably do the same. Therefore, I If an ambush is planned, it should be near the grain and grass camp."
In marching operations, food and grass are the most important, and using them as bait is indeed a good ambush point. However, Ye Gui said: "Shuai Huang, our army has only set up camp for a few days. Can the Qin army know the location of our food and grass camp? "
Huang Zu glanced at him and said seriously: "No one can be sure about this, but based on the Qin army's military intelligence, we still have to be careful."
"Okay." Ye Gui said no more.
Next, Huang Zu began to arrange defense matters, not only setting the grain and grass camp as the focus, but also setting up certain ambushes in other places.
And he believed that he had thoroughly studied Su Yi and felt that the opponent was very likely to launch a counterattack at night. In fact, the Qin army did mention this plan.
But it wasn't Su Yi who suggested it.
Inside Shanyu Pass, it is the place where affairs are discussed.
After two days, with Changgou as the boundary, the Qin army generals seemed quite satisfied with the damage to the coalition forces. After summarizing the battle consumption, Goldman Sachs was the first to stand up, clasped his fists and said:
"Commander Su, the coalition forces suffered setbacks before the war and their morale was exhausted. After retreating, the entire army must be eager to rest and recuperate in preparation for a strong attack tomorrow. At this moment, they must be discussing how to capture Shanyu Pass, and they must not have thought of it. We dare to open the city and fight back! The general thought that we should attack the camp at night and catch them off guard!"
When the generals heard the words, they first looked at each other, and then Peng Shuang stood up: "General Gao's words are reasonable, and the last general also thinks that this is a fighting opportunity."
Another general agreed: "Yes, there are 900,000 coalition forces. They think that they have superior strength and we can only defend the city gates. This is the opposite. I finally agree with General Gao's proposal."
Why did Goldman Sachs think of this? It was because he had been assigned to Su Yi's men in many wars. Su Yi had also had similar counterattacks and was very successful. He had heard this and learned from Su Yi. I have learned a lot. In recent years, in order to become an excellent general, I have read military books and strategies at night.
Goldman Sachs is not old, only about thirty, he has been tempered enough on the battlefield, has experienced large and small battles, and has good experience. He is definitely a general worth training. In time, he will be able to stand alone.
Now that he heard what the three of them said, Su Yi did not answer immediately, but glanced at the others: "What do you think?"
"It works!" The generals agreed.
"Well..." Su Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.
