Dongfang Yu was holding a book in front of the case. His eyes were a little sore from reading for too long, so he couldn't help but rub his eyes.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed!" Dongfang Yu yawned and prepared to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
"Let me in, I have something important to do. I want to meet with His Majesty!" The soldiers from the front rushed to the rear camp in ten minutes.
Dongfang Yu, who was about to go to bed when he heard the noise, suddenly became more awake again.
"It's so late, why did the front line send people back?"
"Could it be...that something happened on the front line?"
Now the two armies are fighting, and they are at a stalemate. Both Dongfang Yu and Gongsun Yan are looking for a breakthrough. It is possible! Just that little mistake will be the key to the defeat of both parties.
"Let him in!"
Dongfang Yu regained his composure and shouted outside the tent.
The secret guards guarding the door then stood up to let the soldiers in.
The soldier was in a hurry. When he saw Dongfang Yu, he immediately knelt down and said, "Long live my emperor!"
"I'm free of charge!"
"Why are you so anxious? Tell me quickly!" Dongfang Yu asked immediately.
"Your Majesty, tonight, the General ordered General Huo Ji to attack the Yan Army's artillery positions at night. As a result... five thousand sergeants were missing and there was no news!"
the soldier said eagerly.
After hearing this, Dongfang Yu fell into deep thought for a moment, "No, Huo Ji is my general. How can you say he is missing just because he is missing?"
yes!
Huo Ji succeeded Wei Qing in his ability, and his ability to lead troops in battle was by no means weaker than Wei Qing's.
And won his trust.
It would be a bit inappropriate to say that he is missing just because he is missing.
"Come here, tell Xu Meng, Zhuge Xuanyu, and Yu Qian to come see me!"
"promise!"
The soldiers quickly went to the three-person tent.
At this time, except Yu Qian, Xu Meng and Zhuge Xuanyu were not sleeping yet.
In a moment, the three of them were ordered to arrive at the Chinese army's imperial tent.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
The three of them bowed.
Yu Qian was laughing, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
Dongfang Feidu glanced at Yu Qian and said, "Yu Qian, we are facing a formidable enemy. Did you sleep soundly?"
Yu Qian replied in a daze: "With His Majesty and all the military advisers and generals here, everything that should be thought of has been thought of. I serve Yu Qian just like a decoration."
Yu Qian is very talented, but I have to admit that Zhuge Xuanyu and Xu Meng are indeed very accomplished in military affairs.
Dongfang Yu smiled faintly.
Nor did he pay any attention to the latter.
During the great battle between these two armies, every string of everyone's strings was broken. I'm afraid... only this boy Yu Qian could sleep so soundly.
Immediately, Dongfang Yu told the three people all about Huo Ji's situation.
this…
"My dear friends, tell me, where did Huo Ji and his five thousand soldiers and horses go?" Dongfang Yu looked at the three of them.
Xu Meng frowned slightly and stroked his beard, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is only one possibility."
oh!
Dongfang Yu looked at Xu Meng.
As the earliest military advisor he followed, Dongfang Yu naturally knew the latter's talents.
Especially in terms of military strategic vision, Xu Meng did have a long-term and thorough view.
"Commander, please tell me!"
"Your Majesty, at this time, almost all of Gongsun Yan's army is stationed in the frontline camp, competing with our army on the front line. And the most empty place is this majestic city!"
"I feel that Huo Ji's sudden disappearance was not due to fear of death due to military law. I'm afraid... he went to attack Xiongcheng secretly!" Xu Meng analyzed.
Now, it seems that this is the only explanation that is the most reasonable.
Dongfang Yu's brows began to frown more and more, and his doubts suddenly became more intense.
"No, this majestic city is empty. There is also Gongsun Yan stationed with 10,000 troops. In addition, the majestic city is a strong pass on the border of the Yan army to defend our Qin army. The defenses of its city are specially reinforced. The city is high The wall is thick and there are ten thousand troops stationed there. How can Huo Ji attack this majestic city with five thousand light cavalry?"
This question! Everyone was very puzzled.
With five thousand troops and two days of food, how could Huo Ji defeat this mighty city?
This is almost impossible!
Besides! Xiongcheng is only a few dozen kilometers away from the Yan army's frontline camp. Once Xiongcheng is attacked, the front line will have a large army to return to the rescue. At that time! Huo Ji's five thousand soldiers and horses could not escape even with wings on their backs.
"this……"
"Your Majesty, we don't know what General Huo Ji is thinking and what he is planning for now! We have no choice but to cooperate with General Huo Ji to make this whole show!"
"Tomorrow, our Qin army will continue to attack the Yan army and deliberately send General Ma Chao with 100,000 cavalry to directly attack Yan's horse farm on the grassland." Zhuge Xuanyu said.
"It's interesting to scare the grass and scare the snake, it's interesting... it's interesting!"
"Now, it depends on how Huo Ji behaves?" Dongfang Yu said helplessly.
It's ridiculous to say that the two top strategic and military experts in this account were actually stumped by a little Huo Ji.
The spies hurriedly returned to the former army camp again. Because of Huo Ji's incident, none of the generals in the former army camp returned to the camp to rest.
Liu Wenqin took a few steps in front of the sand table.
"This Huo Ji is getting more and more courageous. He actually wants to take Xiongcheng with only five thousand soldiers and horses."
"Where is this majestic city! Is it possible to capture the strategic focus of the Yan State? Gongsun Yan is not a fool!"
Liu Wenqin was very angry. He was a frontline general, but Huo Ji blatantly disobeyed military orders and acted without authorization. Even if he captured Xiongcheng, his merits would be offset by his faults.
If Xiongcheng cannot be taken, there is only a dead end to correct military law.
"General, for this plan, our army can only follow His Majesty's wishes and fully cooperate with General Huo Ji." Hu Xiaoyue said.
well!
Liu Wenqin sighed and felt much calmer. Since Huo Ji had already done what he did, there was no use in getting angry.
"We must not only complete the play, but also make it more realistic. Huo Ji led his army deep into the hinterland of the Yan Kingdom, and he will definitely kill many of the Yan Army spies who passed by!"
"Go...immediately send a small number of spies to kill the guards at the border of Yan State. The more you kill, the better." A cold and stern look appeared in Liu Wenqin's eyes.
"promise!"
The generals take orders.
After talking about the change of plans for tomorrow, they all went down to rest.
Early in the morning, the "rumbling" war drums of the Qin army's front camp broke the silence of the morning. The Qin army gathered again, with the tiger roaring in the moon and holding the tiger knife in his hand, showing the general's style.
In the rear camp, Ma Chao had just gotten up when he heard that His Majesty sent Xuan Ziyuan to deliver military orders.
Then without any delay, he arrived in front of the general's camp.
"Zi Yuan, does your Majesty send you here with an important order?" Ma Chao remembered that it seemed that his own cavalry had not yet gone into battle.
"General Ma Chao, the situation on the frontline has changed. Your Majesty ordered you to lead one hundred thousand cavalry and immediately dispatch troops to the horse farm in the northern part of the Yan Kingdom. However! This time, your Majesty means... General Ma Chao's troops and horses must be deliberately shown to Gongsun Yan. "
As Xuan Ziyuan spoke, he whispered a few secret words into Ma Chao's ear.
