Yan Chi and Zhao Shuhua naturally knew what Yue Qiong said.
Zhao Shuhua said casually, "What is Hou Ye's plan?"
Yue Qiong sighed, "Rongman wants to delay, if we can afford it, it's fine, but right now, we can't afford it either."
Zhao Shuhua's hand holding the teacup tightened slightly, Yue Qiong's words could be said to reach her heart, among the three parties, Zhao Shuhua is most afraid of procrastination.
Zhao Shuhua said again, "Then we want to pursue the victory?"
Yue Qiong nodded, then looked at Yan Chi, Yan Chi said, "If the battle can be resolved quickly, no one wants to spend too much time in the north."
Yue Qiong knew that both Yan Chi and Zhao Shuhua had the same intention when he heard the words, and said, "Since that's the case, I've thought of a way in the past few days. Now the Rongman is stationed on the hillside of Luofengpo, the terrain is very good, and the Luoman Fengpo is a low hill, which is a place that can be retreated, defended and attacked. Although we have a large number of people, it is difficult to surround its camp even if the whole army is dispatched. Fazi drives them down the mountain first."
Yan Chi and Zhao Shuhua looked at Yue Qiong, both of them looked like they would like to hear more about it.
Yue Qiong said, "It's midsummer now, and the forests on Luofeng Slope are extremely dense. Once we set fire to the mountain at the foot of the mountain, the Rongman will definitely come down."
In the battle of the mountains and forests, setting fire to the mountains is indeed an excellent way.
Yan Chi frowned and said, "It's just that the Luofeng Slope is full of passages, and we don't know where the Rongman descended from."
Having said that, Yue Qiong laughed, "I have found out about this, if they set fire to the mountain, they will only go to two places."
With that said, Yue Qiong asked the lieutenant to hang a map on the wall.
"Rongman are all tribes living on the cold plains. They live in the grasslands and forests. Speaking of which, they know how to escape in the wilderness better than us. There are two valleys on the Luofeng slope. The fire is two lines of fire, and we set the fire just south of their current camp. When the fire spreads upwards, they must be forced to make a choice, either go from the west to the green grassland, or follow along. up the ridge and headed northwest—”
Cheng Wei heard the words, "Wouldn't it be possible to climb over the mountain?"
Yue Qiong shook his head, "Mountain ridges can't stop the fire, and I've made a plan to do this when the southwest wind blows, just to force them to the northwest. At that time, the Shuoxi Army will be stationed at Luofengpo On the green grassland to the west, while the Beifu army guards the north of Luofengpo in the northeast, just in case, the Jinzhou army waits in the valley west of Luofengpo. In this way, no matter which direction the Rongman retreats, we You can double-team them."
Yan Chi, Cheng Wei and the others looked at the map drawn by Yue Qiong, and Yan Chi said for a moment, "If the map is correct, it is feasible."
Yue Qiong said with a smile, "I sent a hundred people up the mountain to check and draw this map. It is definitely correct. There is only one thing. Before that, we only sent more than 30,000 troops. This time, I plan to dispatch all Jinzhou troops, and Shuo It is best for the Western Army and Beifu Army to have more than 50,000 people, so that they can be defeated in one blow."
Zhao Shuhua frowned, "So many people are going to be dispatched?"
Yue Qiong looked at Cheng Wei and the others and said, "If this strategy succeeds, it is natural that we will take the initiative and be passive, and General Cheng should know that if there is no advantage in numbers, we will still be unable to make the soldiers vigorous like before. hurt."
Zhao Shuhua looked at Cheng Wei, and Cheng Wei nodded in agreement.
Zhao Shuhua looked at Yan Chi, "What did Prince Rui say?"
Yan Chi looked at the map carefully, and thought over what Yue Qiong said in his mind. Thinking that the Shuoxi Army had been going north for a long time, he also felt that it was time for a quick battle. Although there were many uncertainties in the plan of the mountain fire, but He still nodded and said, "You can give it a try."
After hearing the words, Yue Qiong knew that the two agreed with this plan, and couldn't help but said, "I have asked the warlocks in the camp to do the calculation, and the time will be four or five days later."
Hearing that it would take four or five days, Zhao Shuhua felt relieved. She had just won the battle, and when she should take advantage of the victory to pursue her, she was afraid that Yue Qiong would rush forward and lose her own people. Yue Qiong, Yan Chi, etc. The people negotiated some more details, and the alliance just dispersed when the final battle strategy was finalized.
The three parties went back to their camps, and it was natural for them to rest and train again.
In the Shuoxi Military Council Hall, Yu Qi smiled and said, "I didn't expect Lord Hou to be so determined. It's just that things are dry today. I don't know where the mountain fire will burn together."
Yan Chi said casually, "There are two valleys on the mountain, and the area that can be burned happens to be the big area where the Rongman camp is the main camp. It's unlikely that they will start a prairie fire."
Hearing the words, Xiao Cheng said again, "This time 50,000 troops will be dispatched, will His Highness lead the troops himself?"
Yan Chi nodded, "Of course I want it. This time the relationship is very important. If I don't go, I won't be at ease."
Gu Ling heard the words and said, "But judging by Master Hou's arrangement, although we are lying in ambush on the green grassland, we have to divide into several directions."
Yan Chi nodded, unfolded a newly drawn map in his hand, clicked on a few points and said, "These places have already been visited by people, and we will be stationed at these three points when the time comes. Who wants to lead troops?"
Yu Qi smiled and said, "Your subordinates, please fight! How about your Highness let your subordinates be the striker?"
Yan Chi frowned, "This time when they attacked the main barracks, they had a hundred thousand troops. You lead the troops too far, why don't you go to the flank?"
Yu Qi couldn't stop laughing when he heard the words, so he had to beg, "This time, my subordinate promises that I will never make any rash advances or take any risks! Please give me another chance, Your Highness!"
Yan Chi glanced at Gu Ling and said, "You can be a striker, so let Gu Ling join you."
Yu Qi had a lively mind and lots of ideas, but he was not steady enough, while Gu Ling was much more steady and composed. Seeing Yan Chi's arrangement, Yu Qi knew that he wanted Gu Ling to watch him, so he smiled resentfully and said, "Okay, don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate will not disgrace his life!"
Yan Chi nodded, "I will personally lead the central army, Xiao Cheng is in charge of the left wing, Chu Feicheng is in charge of the right wing, and you will be given 10,000 soldiers each from the three places."
After such an arrangement, the crowd dispersed. Gu Ling got out of the big tent and naturally headed towards the wounded barracks. Very caring... "
Gu Ling raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Is there anything wrong?"
Yu Qi smiled and waved his hands, "No, no, it's just that I remember that you didn't seem to be so meticulous about everything in the past, but now you have changed your temper. This time the two of us are fighting together, you must watch me, if we get out Trouble, you will be punished with me."
Gu Ling smiled, "You also know that you want me to watch you."
Yu Qi put his hand on Gu Ling's shoulder, "Hey, don't I know myself!"
The two of them talked together and headed towards the wounded soldiers' camp. When they got to the camp, they saw Qin Guan busy with Yue Ning.
Yu Qi saw Qin Wan from a distance, and smiled, "Our concubine is really like a living Bodhisattva..."
Gu Ling also looked at Qin Wan, and said after a moment of silence, "Yes."
Speaking of which, Yu Qi withdrew his gaze, and said with some hesitation, "Speaking of which, there has been no news from the south for several days, and Ge Yang has gone now. I think His Highness means that he is going to retreat after the last match. , lest we fall into a passive position when Ge Yang comes."
Gu Ling narrowed his eyes, turned around, and looked in Shuoxi's direction, "Shuoxi is better."
Yu Qi laughed loudly, "That's natural." He hummed again, "I'll deliver the letter to the south right now, so Ge Yang shouldn't try to make any small moves."
When Qin Wan returned to the camp of the Chinese Army from the Wounded Barracks, he knew the plan to burn Luofengpo, and also knew that Yan Chi would lead the army himself, so his heart sank, and he couldn't help worrying, "This time the soldiers There are a hundred thousand, and I always feel very uneasy."
Yan Chi took Qin Wan into his arms, "Don't worry, there are Jinzhou Army and Beifu Army, and a hundred thousand people are nothing."
Qin Wan sighed, "If it goes well this time, the Rongman must have suffered heavy casualties. By then, we won't have to continue going north, right?"
Yan Chi nodded, "That's right. If we go north, we won't be able to hold back anymore. What's more, the reinforcements from the imperial court will arrive soon, and we will only be more passive. After this last battle is over, Shuoxi's army will do their best. .”
Qin Wan hugged Yan Chi's waist, "I hope everything goes well, and we can go back to Shuoxi soon."
