Three more days passed.
Caizhou City, meeting hall.
At the signal of King Ling, Bu Shuo was turning sideways, pointing his sword at the military map on the wall, making certain strategic arrangements.
"Again, the current Qin army does not know our next actions, so the attack on Longmen has an unexpected effect."
"At the same time, in order to complete the tactical coordination, our army can first use General Wei Guang to launch the Baiting Battle to confuse the Qin army's sight."
As he spoke, he pointed his war sword at the map.
"Use Caizhou's frontal battlefield to attract the main force of the Qin army."
"With one hundred thousand elites, attack Longmen in a flash."
"If Longmen is in a hurry, the Qin army's left and right fronts will definitely shrink, and this is exactly what our army wants to see."
"At that time, General Ye Gui can be ordered to lead the cavalry out of Liupan Mountain and break through the Qin army's flank along the southwest line."
"If the flanks are in chaos, it will be difficult for the Qin army to take care of both sides. They will inevitably focus on one thing and lose the other. Maybe they can even pull out the King of Qin's flag."
His deployment was very clear. If it were to be fought like this, it would be really hard to say who would win and who would lose without Xiao Yuan receiving the secret report.
For Xiao Yuan, Bu Shuo is indeed a trouble, because he is not as conservative as Huang Zu, and not as fearful of enemies as Wei Guang. He dares to fight, has the confidence to defeat the Qin army, and dares to plan the battle. .
After he finished speaking, the generals of the Ling Army began to think in their minds. Ye Guize was the first to say: "What a good strategy! What are we waiting for? With this arrangement, there is no need to worry about it. Let's start a war with the Qin army." !”
The generals looked at each other, and Huang Zu pondered for a moment: "General Bu Shuo's deployment is to launch a full-front battle for Longmen."
"So what?" Bu Shuo said: "The importance of Longmen is to retreat from the enemy. As long as this operation is successful, our army will be able to completely reverse the situation in Caizhou and change from passive to active."
Huang Zu stopped talking.
King Ling looked at everyone and said, "What do you generals think?"
Except for Huang Zu, no one here has a higher military talent than Bu Shuo, and no one has a better plan. Therefore, after a moment of silence, everyone said in unison: "I have no objection... ..”
"Okay!" King Ling stood up and said seriously: "Then we will further improve this deployment, and when the information is sent back, we will start a war with the Qin army!"
"I obey your orders——" Everyone saluted in unison.
After the military discussion, the generals dispersed and went back to their respective camps. On Murong Yan's side, his generals couldn't help but say: "General Bu Shuo really shined in today's military discussion. From now on, he will have the right to command. I’m afraid it will change ownership from Huang Shuai.”
"Who proposed the lightning attack on Longmen?" Murong Yan smiled, and while chatting, he didn't care, and waved his hand to order the deputy general to retreat.
But just as he poured himself a cup of tea, a sergeant ran in quickly, knelt on one knee and said, "General, I have a letter."
"Oh? Submit it." Murong Yan didn't think much.
After the letter was delivered and the seal was opened, Murong Yan's eyes widened immediately after taking a look at it.
General Bu Shuo personally said:
The deployment of Longmen has been completed as planned. The general only needs to urge King Ling to attack Longmen, and great things can be accomplished. When the Eastern Expedition is over, Gu will be awarded the position of Duke, allowing the general to take charge of Lingdi...
This was written by King Qin again. This letter was obviously meant for Bu Shuo, but it happened to be in the hands of Murong Yan.
In shock, he could not sit still, so he stood up, took the secret letter, and walked away quickly.
Half an hour later.
In the study, King Ling was still studying the military map and discussing something with his counselor Cheng Ping.
The guard entered, clasped his fists and bent down, saying, "Your Majesty, General Murong would like to see you."
"Let him come in." The Spirit King said casually without raising his head.
The guards retreated, and not long after, Murong Yan hurried in. As soon as he finished saluting, he said urgently: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened."
"Huh?" King Ling frowned, slightly displeased: "The general is also a man who has been on the battlefield for a long time, why are you so panicked?"
"This." Murong Yan stopped talking nonsense and handed over the letter directly: "Your Majesty, please take a look. This is a secret letter that was just discovered. It was written by the King of Qin himself."
"What?" Upon hearing King Qin's handwriting, King Ling couldn't help but straighten his expression. He quickly took it and unfolded it, and read it carefully.
When he finished reading, his expression was similar to Murong Yan's at that time. His eyes widened for a moment and he exclaimed: "How is this possible!"
"I also find it incredible. But a few days ago, I had a conversation with Bu Shuo. During this period, letters were also sent from the Qin camp. It can be seen that there may have been letters between Bu Shuo and the King of Qin." Murong Yan said. .
"This is unreasonable!" King Ling was furious when he heard this. He was about to say something, but Cheng Ping quickly said: "Your Majesty, please calm down and ask what happened."
The Spirit King shook off the secret letter and said angrily: "The military advisor will see for himself!"
Cheng Ping quickly took it, and when he finished reading it, he rolled his eyes and said faintly: "It's just a letter written by King Qin, so what can it mean? Moreover, the content of the letter is said to be for General Bu Shuo. Why did it end up in the hands of General Murong?"
"This." Murong Yan paused and said, "My tent is only a few steps away from Bu Shuo. I think the person who sent the message must have been too panicked and mistakenly went to the wrong place."
After saying that, he said seriously to King Ling: "Although the matter is suspicious, Your Majesty must take precautions. Bu Shuo talked a lot about the offensive strategy, and now he is leading the battle deployment. If he communicates with the King of Qin, the consequences will be disastrous."
"I have to guard against it, I have to guard against it..." The Spirit King's eyes were dark. He was not a suspicious person, but no one could stay calm about such a thing.
Cheng Ping said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, the matter is still unclear, so we cannot make a conclusion on this. Maybe, this is King Qin's plan to alienate people!"
After hearing this, the Spirit King calmed down somewhat and began to squint his eyes slightly and think carefully.
But Murong Yan said: "Your Majesty, military advisor, have you ever thought about how the King of Qin knew that we were going to attack Longmen? The letter stated that Yi Yishuo would speed up the attack on Longmen, and the Qin army had already been deployed there. Okay, just wait for our army to go."
ah! ? The Spirit King's expression changed instantly.
This is the key!
Because from the Ling Army's point of view, the attack on Longmen was a military secret, and the Qin Army would not know it anyway, unless Bu Shuo and the King of Qin had made an agreement long ago to attack Longmen.
No wonder he keeps admonishing.
Thinking of the contents of the letter, King Ling's expression suddenly changed and he could no longer sit still. He immediately pointed his hand and said, "Quick! Bring Bu Shuo over to me!"
"Yes!" Murong Yan clasped his fists and left. Instead of worrying, he felt a sense of schadenfreude in his heart.
After he left, King Ling had a gloomy face and frowned, pacing back and forth in the study.
Cheng Ping moved the corner of his mouth, wanting to say something, but King Qin mentioned the surprise attack on Longmen in his letter, and it was obvious that he had already grasped it, which made him a little unsure.
