No matter from the riding skills, sprinting speed, and fearless aura of the four thousand cavalry, Ji Xingbai could conclude that this cavalry was one of the most elite cavalry in the Great Chu Dynasty.
According to the normal equipment, such a cavalry army is not even wearing light armor like today, and its combat power far exceeds tens of thousands of ordinary people. Even if it cannot kill more than 70,000 ordinary people, it should not be completely defeated. any questions.
However, if it is purely about combat power, the life and death of that old maid who committed suicide in the distant Changling Palace, a grand master like her, is better than these 70,000 people.
Some things cannot be measured so simply.
Ji Xingbai looked at the blood-stained surface of the lake, and he saw many young people who had gone ashore before re-entering the water.
Before he made a sound, these young men were already spontaneously salvaging the remains of the sergeant of the cavalry army.
More and more people went into the water, even many who had been crying out of despair before.
The remains of the sergeant were first dragged from the water near the opposite bank to this bank, followed by food and horses. This was a difficult trek across most of the lake, but no one seemed to feel tired that night.
In order to get these people to follow him to the lake, Ji Xingbai used all available methods, but this night, he didn't need to say anything, he just stood and watched the scene, watching Like a statue.
Many women and children were washing the remains of these sergeants. In addition to disposing of the food, medicines and those horses, many people silently put some of the weapons carried by these sergeants, including the arrows and other sharp objects that pierced them, on their bodies. .
There were still many suppressed cries in the team, but there was a great power spreading among the crowd.
Ji Xingbai knew that after tonight, such power would not only spread in the hearts of these people by the lakeside, but would also spread in more places in Chu State.
…
"Tang Zhefeng, looking at the mountain in the dark is a dark mass, and you can see something, isn't it too boring?"
"When I run out at night to see anything, I can't see clearly from a distance. It's boring in itself, and it's not just the mountains that are boring."
"That's right, anyway, it's boring, it's better to accompany my brother to get some fresh air."
On the battlefield in the Yinshan area, which is far away from Yangshan County, there are countless camps of Chu army in the night, and on a hill in these camps, there are seven figures standing quietly, six of them do not speak, only one People are very boring, talking to themselves very weirdly.
These people around him have long been used to his eccentricity of talking to himself when he gets excited.
Having lived in seclusion with Tang Mei for many years, they knew each other well.
Just tonight, even the military advisers and counselors around the famous generals of Dachu didn't realize what kind of intentions were contained in some military orders issued by Tang Mo, but these people standing around Tang Mo at this time could not ignore them. Relying on the in-depth analysis of the military order, and only relying on some subtle changes in Tang Mo's expression, he understood what Tang Mo was going to do next.
"Is it too risky?"
It was cold, and the long-haired Zhao Jianlu practitioner, Zhao Ce, ignored Tang Zhefeng's self-talk, turned his head to look at Tang Mei, and asked.
When he asked this sentence, the breath outside his body suddenly became hotter, and his skin even turned red.
This means that his mood is also different from usual, and his calm face is actually agitated.
"Everyone thinks that my style of commanding the army is too conservative, not only the enemy thinks so, but even our own people think so." Tang Mo smiled, he was very relaxed, once the most important decision has been made If you do it, then the burden in your heart will be removed.
He smiled and looked at the fires in the Qin army's barracks on the hillside in the distance that could be seen in the dark night, and then said: "However, for marching and fighting, it is naturally possible to do the opposite and make the opponent make mistakes in judgment." bring victory."
"So many troops and generals before, so many battles, I feel that you have to keep conservative like this. It turns out that you deliberately called Sima like this to misunderstand." Tang Zhefeng didn't talk to himself this time, Instead, he looked at Tang Mei and said.
Tang Mei smiled lightly, and said: "The most important thing is that even the people in the Bashan Sword Field judged that I was going to fight slowly. Even if they judged like this, then Sima Cuo and Wei Wujiu must have judged like this, no one will know I will launch a decisive battle immediately. And we actually don't have much choice. Although our army food delivery has not been a problem by luck, only the empress dowager and I know that there are several unopened granaries that were actually used by the first emperor. empty."
"But even if our side can win a big victory, the key to the decisive victory still lies in Yangshan County. There is a fatal loophole in your plan." A deep voice sounded.
The person who made the sound was the most taciturn among the people around Tang Mo. Usually in Tang Mo's secluded place, what he did was not aesthetically pleasing, he just plowed the land and loosened the soil every day.
However, he is Jin Liufeng, one of the best military advisers in the Great Chu Army.
"Even if we win a big victory here, even if we eat 300,000 main forces of the Qin army in one bite, the key lies in whether Yangshan County can stop the Qin army's counterattack."
He lowered his head and looked at the soil under his feet, and said word by word: "As long as we start a decisive battle, they will wake up soon and find that you have mobilized most of your forces here. As for the Qin army in Yangshan County, We have already made preparations for a surprise attack by the whole army. Once the Yangshan army enters Chu, if we lose more than a dozen cities and counties along the way, this battle will no longer be possible."
"You are right. As long as I launch a decisive battle between the armies in the Yinshan area, the Qin army in Yangshan County will attack across the board. But Yangshan County will definitely block the Qin army's counterattack." Tang Mei said slowly. said this sentence.
He didn't explain the reason, this sentence was overbearing and somewhat rude, because since Jin Liufeng said it was a loophole, there must be a gap in strength.
But these people who are very familiar with Tang Mei can hear some unusual flavors from this sentence.
…
At the same night, in the depths of the Chu Palace, Lord Li Ling couldn't sleep at night. As a practitioner, he sweated every night because he was too nervous and often wet the bedding with sweat.
Because he hadn't slept well for a long time, his eye sockets were sunken deeper, and he even looked a little dark, and his face was strangely pale.
He knew that Concubine Zhao Xiang was no longer in the palace.
Because the real Concubine Zhao Xiang hadn't been close to him for many days, he didn't know where she went, but he didn't disclose this information to anyone.
He strictly guarded this secret.
So he is very clear that Zheng Xiu's hidden chess move is not his own, so if it is not him, what is Zheng Xiu's strongest back move
It is precisely because of the unexpected that he has an inexplicable fear every day.
In the same night, there was a man who seldom slept at night, walking on a certain mountain in the Yinshan battlefield, overlooking the company camps of the Qin and Chu dynasties as lonely as a falcon.
