As Zheng Yu said, it is better to rely on Chu itself than to rely on the alliance.
"That's it!"
"Even if Wu and Yue are here, people's hearts are not aligned, and things are more likely to change!"
"Zhou Zhaojian, go and stabilize the morale of the army! I have a hunch that the war between Qin and Chu will not be long. In addition! Liu Wenqin must be guarded against." Xiao Huangqi specially warned.
Rather than believing that Liu Wenqin would surrender to the Chu State, it was better to trust his own intuition.
At this time, the Qin army's camp held another meeting to attack Chu.
The strategy has been formulated by Dongfang Yu and Xu Meng, and all the generals under their command need to do is implement it.
"Qi Lanyin and Song Yi obey the order." Dongfang Yu shouted seriously.
The two stepped out suddenly, bowed and said: "The general will be here."
"Order Qi Lanyin as the chief general and Song Yi as the deputy general, and lead an army of one hundred thousand to quietly attack Xichuan County in Yuezhou. As long as we capture this place, we can block the food and grass transported from Yangzhou to the Chu army's camp. So! Xiao Huangqi's 300,000-strong army advanced and retreated to no avail, so they could only sit in the middle and wait to be destroyed," Dongfang Yu said.
"But from here, it's a long way to take a detour to Xichuan. Let's set off immediately from now on."
"General, take your orders!" The two men received the order and immediately! Back into the queue again.
Starting from the Qin army's camp, they had to bypass the Chu camp and send troops to Xichuan. The distance would be at least eighty miles longer.
In other words, the original distance of 150 miles can be reached in two days by normal marching. Now, it takes three days to arrive.
A whole day late.
"Ziyuan, are you ready for what I asked you to prepare?" Dongfang Yu turned his head and asked Xuan Ziyuan.
Xuan Ziyuan stood up suddenly, bowed and said: "The general has naturally completed what the king ordered."
Um!
Dongfang Yu was very satisfied and said solemnly: "Soldiers, Chu is about to be destroyed. A battle in four days will definitely overthrow the Chu Kingdom."
"Long live the king, may the Qin Dynasty live forever!"
"Long live the king, may the Qin Dynasty live forever!"
All the generals moved neatly and uniformly, solemnly clasping their fists towards Dongfang Yu.
this moment! The generals' desire to destroy Chu became more and more powerful.
and! Lan Tian's death made everyone feel angry, and all they needed was Dongfang Yu's order for the generals to fight their way out.
"Song Yi and Qi Lanyin stayed, and the rest of the generals went back to prepare for war." Dongfang Yu said.
After the generals left, there were only four people in Nuo's big tent: Dongfang Yu, Xu Meng, Song Yi, and Qi Lanyin.
"What else does your Majesty have to say?"
The two asked in confusion.
this moment! Dongfang Yu raised his brows, his face gradually became serious, and he said: "From here to Xichuan County, it is a detour of two hundred and thirty miles. I order you to drive day and night, and you will arrive thirty miles away from Xichuan County in two and a half days. If you meet the Chu army and arrive at Xichuan County first, you can lead your army and stay there for half a day."
"Wear off the Chu army's vigilance, and then! In one day, break into Xiao Huangqi's camp from the border of Xichuan. If the enemy does not send troops to reinforce Xichuan, you two will lead the army and directly capture Xichuan. Sichuan County.”
"So! No matter what, there is no way for Xiao Huangqi to survive! Qi Aiqing, Song Aiqing, can you two handle such a difficult task?"
The two looked at each other with determination in their eyes.
They worshiped one after another: "Isn't it just two hundred miles! What our Qin army is not afraid of the most is long-distance attacks and mountain crossings. In twelve hours, we can attack two hundred miles. In one hour, we can't reach twenty miles. At the end of the day, the general will I promise on behalf of all the Qin troops that they will definitely appear in the rear of the Chu army when the army attacks the Chu army."
"Let the head and tail not see each other!"
With the personal guarantees from Qi Lanyin and Song Yi, Dongfang Yu felt much more at ease.
After the two of them went down, Dongfang Yu sat relaxedly on the chair, looked at the tent ceiling, and said to himself: "I hope everything... can go as planned."
Relieved! The homing pigeons that were abandoned from the Qin camp also flapped their wings and flew to the Chu army camp.
Faced with the extremely observant Xiao Huangqi, he naturally noticed the pigeons flying out from inside and outside the camp every day.
after all! Ordinary pigeons, if they find hundreds of thousands of people stationed here, will be frightened and disappear. There, he could still be so calm, flying in and out from the top of Chu camp.
Except for trained homing pigeons, wild pigeons are not so bold.
General Sui Dianlong was a Jiangdong general who was not inferior to Zhou Zhaojian.
"Sure enough, it's here..." Sui Dianlong quietly followed the direction of the pigeon's flight.
Just as Xiao Huangqi guessed, he flew outside Liu Wenqin's tent.
But because Liu Wenqin was injured by Yu Wenhu last time, and the wound collapsed and recurred, Xiao Huangqi forced him to move out of his previous residence.
The pigeon didn't run or scurry around, it was just like a stupid bird, its legs standing on a small wooden stick.
Sui Dianlong stepped forward and grabbed the pigeon.
"hehe!"
Sui Dianlong's face darkened, he looked at Liu Wenqin's tent, and said mockingly: "You Liu Wenqin, the governor treats you well! But you have deceived everyone."
"Just wait for me, I will expose you eventually."
Suddenly! He left in a hurry.
moment!
Then we came to the governor's tent.
"Grand Governor, Sui Dianlong, the last general, has something to ask for." Sui Dianlong bowed respectfully outside the tent.
Xiao Huangqi reacted and looked away from the map, "Come in!"
"promise!"
Sui Dianlong held the dove in his hand and walked into the tent.
"Grand Governor, you are really good at predicting things. This Xiao Huangqi is really a craftsman sent by the King of Qin. However! Their plan is really cruel."
Immediately! He handed the pigeon to Xiao Huangqi.
Zhou Zhaojian on the side immediately asked: "Is this Liu Wenqin's carrier pigeon?"
"Exactly!"
Sui Dianlong asked.
Suddenly! Xiao Huangqi took a few glances at the pigeon's body and found a tied and rolled up piece of paper on its feet.
Opening it, several columns of small characters appeared in Xiao Huangqi's eyes.
The more he looked, the tighter his brows became.
"hehe!"
With a grin, Xiao Huangqi turned his gaze to the map behind him.
Looking at Xichuan's position.
"Grand Governor, what is written on this note?" Zhou Zhaojian asked doubtfully.
"Dongfang Yu asked Qi Lanyin and Song Yi to lead a hundred thousand troops to attack our country's Xichuan. Do you want to take another detour and directly cut off my retreat?" Xiao Huangqi analyzed.
"What?"
"This King of Qin's calculation is too big! Our Xichuan garrison only has five thousand, but it is an important road for food supply, so we can't make any mistakes!" Zhou Zhaojian said anxiously.
Um!
"Whether this matter is true or false, our army must pay attention to it."
"Sui Dianlong, I will give you an army of 100,000 troops to be the first to station in Xichuan before Qi Lanyin and others. In addition! Send a large number of scouts to find out the authenticity of the news." Xiao Huangqi said solemnly.
Moreover, his face became more and more solemn.
"promise!"
Sui Dianlong directly received the order and went down.
