"What a good idea. After listening to Xu Jia's arrangement, Ye Shikai couldn't help but sigh, after drinking tea, Xu Jia seemed to have anticipated the direction of the war, and it was a good way to treat others in his own way, the Qin army's strength was already at a disadvantage, and the defender Xu Zhi was mediocre, and the 100,000 Qin army relied on the rations of those accompanying the army, I am afraid that they would not even have enough food for three days, once the grain route was cut off, if they did not surrender, they would be starved to death.

"I deliberately didn't disclose it before, but I was also worried that the plan would be leaked, after all, this is a surprise soldier, if the Qin army learns about it, it will be meaningless, in these five days, I asked General Shangguan to order each sergeant to bring five days' rations, and write down the route of the detour, which was also hidden from the general, please forgive the general. ”

"The military division is not guilty, if you can attack Bashu without blood, then the military division is the first priority. Ye Shikai is very excited, this plan is seamless.

"How did the military division know the route of the detour? ”

"Haha, as early as a few months ago, I have sent people to infiltrate Bashu to survey and map the terrain, especially the area of returning home, this is the only way for my army to enter Sichuan. Xu Jia said lightly, "There are many little-known mountain roads in the mountains near my hometown, and even the local garrison doesn't know about them, only the hunters in the nearby villages. ”

"Generals, I don't know if you have any opinions on my arrangement. As soon as Xu Jia said this, everyone was speechless, he arranged it seamlessly, how could these generals still have opinions.

"The military advisor has a clever plan, if I can win by surprise, I will definitely report to the lord. ”

"Thank you, General. The corners of Xu Jia's mouth rose slightly, swinging the feather fan, he also deliberately dragged the patience of these generals, he could have said it early in the morning, but he had to delay it until Ye Shikai arrived, so that these generals stood here in vain for more than two hours, in fact, these people were dissatisfied with Xu Jia, on the one hand, because of his "high level" appearance, on the other hand, is really too shallow, Xu Jia is only in his thirties, and he has no experience in leading the army before, but he was suddenly promoted to the position of military advisor, in the army, he is under one person, above ten thousand people, and can also give orders to these generals who think they are old qualifications, they are naturally unhappy.

"Ahem, in addition, in the past few days, you still need the generals to work hard, take turns to attack the village, it is still the old rule, feints, but to make the Qin army think that it is a strong attack, it is hard. ”

"Okay, since the military advisor has given the order, then the generals will do it. Ye Shikai said lightly, although these generals are not happy in their hearts, but they can only do so, if they can really win the Qin army, it will not be in vain.

Wounded barracks.

Ahhhh

As soon as he entered the camp, Ye Shikai could hear a scream, as if it was purgatory on earth, there were dozens of sergeants lying in each camp tent, wailing non-stop, the military doctor had already bandaged them, but there were not many medicines in the army, not to mention that the wounded had been continuously in the past few days, and the number was extremely large, and the wounded barracks were almost full.

"I can't believe that so many brothers have been wounded and killed in the past few days. Ye Shikai's face was solemn and he let out a long sigh.

"That's true, attacking the city is the next policy, in the face of deep ditches and high bases, the soldiers can only take their lives to fill, if they can surrender the soldiers without a fight, and take the Qin army camp without blood, it is the best choice. Xu Jia nodded slightly.

"Luckily, I have my husband to help. ”

"Haha, General Ye, if you don't know what you expected, five days later, Qin General Xu Zhi will surrender with 100,000 Qin troops, and we will have to be prepared at that time. ”

"Yes, if there really are so many Qin troops, it will be difficult to do. Thinking of this, Ye Shikai couldn't help but feel a burst of pressure, 100,000 people, even if they were disarmed, they were a great threat in the ancient times of white-knuckle warfare, once they resisted, I was afraid that something would happen.

In addition, 100,000 prisoners of war need to consume a large amount of grain and grass every day, and the grain and grass raised by the army this time is enough for 200,000 troops to eat for two or three months, but if so many prisoners of war are added at once, I am afraid that there will not be so much food for them to eat.

"Strategist, then according to you, if the Qin army surrenders, what should we do. Ye Shikai asked rhetorically.

"General Ye, I understand your character, but with the current situation of our army, we can't afford to feed so many prisoners of war, we don't have enough food for them to eat, and once they collectively resist, I'm afraid there will be a big mess, so ...... The opinion below is ......" Xu Jia stretched out his hand and gently scratched his neck with the palm of his hand, Ye Shikai already understood what he meant.

"What you mean is to follow the example of Qin General Bai Qi and kill them all. Ye Shikai's tone was serious and straightforward.

"Yes, I know that the general is benevolent and righteous, but at this moment, this is also a helpless move, when the Qin general Bai Qikeng killed 400,000 Zhao troops, he was also forced to helpless. ”

"We can think of some other way, by the way, you once gave me a map before, which marked the status and reserves of several Qin army granaries, after we broke the Qin village, these grains and grass were also in the bag, I remember that there are still 200,000 stones, enough for 100,000 Qin troops to eat for a few months. ”

"General, this ...... I'm afraid not, I've already let General Shangguan destroy all those granaries, if I don't do this, the Qin army can still be supplied. ”

"This ......" Ye Shikai was speechless for a while, what Xu Jia did was right, the role of that map was exactly that, if these granaries were not destroyed, then the war would go on forever, but without food, how to feed so many prisoners of war.

"General, let's plan for this matter early, those who can achieve great things are not informal, otherwise once a conflict breaks out, more than 300,000 people on both sides of the two armies will fight together, and more people will die. ”

……………………………………………………

Late at night.

"The general is here, come and serve tea. When Man Cang saw Ye Shikai coming, he immediately stood up.

"No, I'm here to see. Ye Shikai said lightly, this time he came to the forward battalion, not to supervise the battle, but to understand the situation.

"It's really hard for you to lead your subordinates to take turns attacking the village in the past few days. ”

"General, you only let us feint every day, and the people just rushed to the bottom of the village and ran back, it's really not fun. Mancang couldn't help but complain, "When are you waiting, there will be a tough battle." ”

"There will be a tough fight, but not now. Ye Shikai continued to ask, "Mancang, how is the situation of the Qin army these days." ”

"What can we do, we take turns to feint day and night, they are already panicking, I don't think they have had a good night's sleep these days. ”
