Entering October, the canyon area where the Great Prince of Yi and the Hengguo Demon Palace were fighting, the Demon Palace was stuck to the south of the Zhongnan Ancient Road for more than three months, and the Yi State was still stationed north of the Zhongnan Ancient Road, and it was difficult to advance an inch. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info only because the two armies can still line up to meet the battle in the wide area of the canyon, and when they are close to the entrance of the "Zhongnan Cheng" in the depths of the mountain beam, the forces will converge at one point, and the Yi army is unwilling to put itself in a situation where they may suffer huge losses on the opposite side of the point, so the two sides only have a tentative solo battle, and it is still very far from opening the breakthrough.

However, good at fighting like Xiuxi, of course, these three months of work can not be wasted, hundreds of battles to watch, in addition to finding out the skills of the people on the side of the Demon Palace, its biggest gain is actually the mastery of the terrain of the stone walls on the east and west sides of the "Central South Mountain". Synthesizing all the information that can be known, in Xiuxi's heart, a plan within a plan has gradually taken shape.

Yi Jun Camp -

"Chen, in the next battle, if I deploy the strongest left army on the east side of the stone wall, and send the second strongest Chinese army to fight for the Zhongnan Ancient Road, and the weakest right army on the west side of the stone wall, what do you think the battle situation will be?"

"With the stone walls on both sides as the battlefield? How many stable points can you settle on the stone walls? How to fight this battle. Liu Chen raised his eyebrows, and his tone revealed a hint of surprise.

"Otherwise, why do you think I let them walk on the plum blossom stakes after the daily collection of troops? I can't waste my time endlessly on 'Zhongnan', Shibi is a solution that has no choice, it's always worth trying. Besides, that's not the point. In contrast to Liuchen's surprise, Xiuxi was still accustomed to being lazy and comfortable, as if he was not the one who was going to fight.

"In this way, the focus is on the 'strategy of dividing the troops'. You don't want to play a game of horse racing, do you?"

"That's half right. ”

"If it is really Tian Ji horse racing, then Zhan Duxiao will definitely use the lower army against our left army, and the upper army against our central army, and the middle army is against our right army. What's in it for us?"

"You know, although the Zhongnan Ancient Road is difficult to break through, I haven't given up, and the army of Zhan Duxiao is used to guard this ancient road, which is not the situation I want to see. ”

"In that case, what is your purpose in this plan?"

"As I said earlier, you're only half right. Xiuxi seemed to like to see Liuchen in a hurry, but still said unhurriedly.

"It's not my forte to march and set up the formation, and if you sell Guan Zi again, I won't accompany you. Liu Chen knows Xiuxi very well, and he doesn't leave him any face. The way the two get along with each other has remained the same for many years.

"Okay, wait until I'll take my time......"

The next day, after the Yi army deployed the three armies according to Xiuxi's strategy, Zhan Duxiao immediately summoned six people, Hezheng, Shanling, Konglin, Fengyuyang, Jinghu and Luodong, to discuss.

"The two armies have been in a stalemate for so long, and now that the prince of Yi Guo has shown this 'strategy of dividing the troops', I don't believe that he is child's play, and he must have his special intentions. After Luo Dong finished speaking, he fell into deep thought.

"I think it's a 'suspicious tactic', he's betting on whether we dare to deal with it in the way of a horse race. In fact, a simple situation is overly complicated, and it is possible to make wrong judgments. Feng Yuyang said next.

"I think that the stone walls on both sides are just a disguise, and the purpose of the Yi army is still the Zhongnan Ancient Road, which will not be wrong. As long as the 'Zhongnan Sect' is defended, what tricks can the other two armies play?" Lonely Ling then analyzed.

"It's not been a day or two that we've been fighting with the Great Prince of Yi, and it's not ten days and a half a month, and with his military talent, I still don't think things are so simple. Igo said.

"The question he came up with is Tian Ji horse racing, but I feel that the solution needs to be changed. After all, what we want is not two wins and one loss, but to quickly repel the enemy forces with minimal casualties. Zhan Duxiao already had a preliminary judgment in her heart.

"Is there a workaround?" He Zheng said as he moved the layout on the sand table, swapping the flag of the Chinese army on the west side of the stone wall and the flag of the "Zhongnan Army".

"The stone wall on the west side is against the enemy's army, the Zhongnan Ancient Road is against the enemy's army, and the east side of the stone wall is against the enemy's army. Luo Dong looked at the new deployment method on the sand table, and did not understand the key for a while.

And Kong Lin had already understood everything, and at this moment, he opened his mouth to explain the confusion of several people:

"The Zhongnan Ancient Road defends the Chinese army with the Chinese army, and even if the battlefields on both sides are put aside, it will not be defeated. The most important thing is that in the western battle circle, our upper army can destroy the enemy's lower army as quickly as possible, and then the upper army and the middle army converge to repel the enemy's central army, and finally join forces with the lower army to encircle the enemy's strongest left army. ”

"Yes, the key is to grasp the opportunity. He Zheng nodded and said.

Zhan Duxiao didn't say much, just calmly observed the sand table, although the strategy that Kong Lin and He Zheng said was exactly what he thought in his heart, but there was still a faint uneasiness in his heart. Maybe it's the reason why the "suspicious tactics" are mixed in, what the eldest prince Xiuxi wants to see is his own vacillation, since he has made a judgment, he should firmly believe in this judgment and firmly respond to the battle. Zhan Duxiao said to herself.

After a moment of silence, Zhan Duxiao spoke again and gave an order as the boss:

"Konglin, Fengyuyang, Jinghu, Luodong, and Hezheng led the army to meet the enemy on the west side of the stone wall. Lonely, Gonghu, Tang Yin, An Liu, and Jun Yin led the Chinese army to guard the 'Zhongnan Dynasty'. Jiao Ying, Yang Xin, Yan Wu, Tie Yin, and Qi Hong led the army and dragged the enemy army on the east side of the stone wall. Huang Feng and Yunwu stayed by the side of the county lord Chanyuan. The Universe and the 'Sixteen Demons' are on standby, dispatched as needed. ”

"Commanded. ”

After everyone in the Demon Palace went to the canyon to meet the battle according to Zhan Duxiao's deployment, Zhan Duxiao, who was sitting in the Demon Palace, couldn't help but be anxious, and he paced in the garden while thinking about whether there were any omissions in the battle plan. At this time, Chan'er and Zhan Duxiao, who were also walking in the garden because they were worried about the military situation, suddenly met, and the two couldn't help but take a few steps towards each other at the same time, and stood in one place facing each other.

"Your face is not very good, what are you thinking?" Chan'er said as she looked at Zhan Duxiao.

"This is different from previous battles, it is the first all-round battle I led everyone to face Yi Guo, and I have to take responsibility for every order and the consequences it may cause, and I feel a little pressured in my heart. Zhan Duxiao said frankly to Chan'er.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Well, you have a delicate mind, and maybe you have more thoughtfulness. Zhan Duxiao then briefly explained the battle plan to Chan'er, and then said, "In your opinion, is this feasible?"

"From the perspective of a bystander, I found a problem. The main task of the Demon Palace under your command in the war is to defend the land of Hengguo and the people who live here, so as you said, what you want is not two wins and one loss, but to quickly repel the enemy army while reducing casualties. ”

"Exactly. ”

"And the prince of Yiguo, as the party attacking the city, for him, the sacrifice of the soldiers is inevitable, and the most important thing is to step out of a way forward as soon as possible. You have the upper army against his lower army, the middle army against his middle army, and the lower army against his upper army, hoping that in the course of the engagement, you can gradually unite your forces against the enemy. However, on the other hand, he is also the upper army against your lower army, if he chooses to abandon his middle army and lower army, only concentrate his forces on the upper army, and take the lead in breaking through the defense of the stone wall on the east side, then he will bypass the Zhongnan Ancient Road and directly occupy the Demon Palace?"

Chan'er's worry instantly reminded Zhan Duxiao, and he finally understood the reason for the anxiety in his heart - because he and Xiuxi pursued different things, the victory or defeat of the war could not be generalized, and any mistake along the way of the three armies would be fatal.

"Authorities fan, I should have asked your opinion earlier. Zhan Duxiao said, and was about to turn around.

"Where are you going?" Chan'er asked subconsciously.

"There are also 'Sixteen Demons' to reinforce the battle circle on the east side. Don't worry about me, be careful yourself. Zhan Duxiao raised her right hand and patted Chan'er's left shoulder twice, and then left quickly.

After joining up with Yujie and the others, Zhan Duxiao rushed to the canyon area, and on the way, he was still simulating all possibilities in his mind.

In history, there were many battles in which the north went south, and only a few battles were successfully won by the south, and these few victories were all because the north seized the ancient road in the south of the country to make a breakthrough in the military situation, and the precedent of conquering the south through the stone wall really did not exist. Is it possible that the strategy that people's wisdom and physique have not been enough to complete for thousands of years can now be realized by the Great Prince of Yi in just over a hundred days and nights?

The next moment, Zhan Duxiao suddenly realized that Xiuxi successively threw out the "strategy of dividing the troops" and the "plan of doubting the troops", and the purpose behind it was actually to attract his attention with the left army on the east side, and then manipulate his own psychology, so that he could transfer some of the men and horses originally stationed in the "Zhongnan Dynasty" to guard the stone wall on the east side. At the same time, the Yi army was placed on the east road, the middle army was placed in the middle road, and the lower army was placed on the west road. At present, it is the Chinese army led by Lin Ling, Gonghu, Tang Yin, An Liu, and Jun Yin who are guarding the "Zhongnan Dynasty", and they are not the most powerful, and they may not be the opponents of the so-called "Chinese army" of Yi Guo that have been premeditated for a long time.

Thinking about this, Zhan Duxiao stopped at his feet, and suddenly changed the direction of his progress.

"Childe?" said Yu Jie, puzzled.

"What a serial scheme, almost stepping into his trap. 'Zhongnan' must not be lost, and no matter what, we must stop the footsteps of the Yi army. Zhan Duxiao said in a deep voice, without any hesitation in his heart.

"Yes, I see. Knowing that the situation was urgent, Utsuji only responded briefly.

At the same time, Chan'er, who was in Qiyuan, also cleared the fog and grasped the original intention of Xiuxi's plan. What made her overturn her previous conclusion was not a battle book or military cognition, but the style of Xiuxi and Liuchen in her memory.

~~~

"Please. Xiuxi personally guided Chan'er and took her into the private room to sit down.

"Aren't they all sitting?" Chan'er asked, looking around, her gaze sweeping over the seven people, including Liuchen.

"Chen, aren't you sitting?" Xiuxi looked at Liuchen.

"I'll stand and observe outside......" Liu Chen said lightly, glancing at Chan'er intentionally or unintentionally, and then handing Xiuxi a look.

Xiuxi understood, nodded almost invisibly, and then said to Chan'er:

"Forget it, let's get down to business. ”

"Hmm. ”

"We are not from the border county, we are from Yidu. ”

"Oh. ”

“…… I...... I hope you can pretend to be my lover. ”

"Huh?" Chan'er was taken aback by Xiuxi's straightforward request.

"That's a long story...... My family is also a family with status in Yidu, so my marriage has to be decided by my father. Not long ago, he got engaged to me, but I didn't want to...... So I escaped from home. I just received news that the people sent by my father have chased here. As long as the girl is willing to do me this favor and let my father give up, Xu Xi will come to the door one day to thank him. ”

When Chan'er heard this, she thought about it in her heart: his surname is Xu, and he is a family with status in Yidu, is he the queen's maiden nephew? But how credible are his words?

"I really want to help my son with this, but I already have a fiancé who is married to me, I'm sorry......" Rather believe it, Chan'er didn't want to have anything to do with Emperor Yi, so she made up a reason.

"No, I took the liberty of it. Xiuxi said, "Then I'll send the girl back." ”

"Childe, please stay. Chan'er said and stood up.

However, at the moment when Chan'er turned her back and walked out of the door, Liu Chen suddenly stretched out her hand like lightning and clicked on the two acupoints behind her.

"Girl, offended. Liuchen's voice was still indifferent.

~~~

The tacit cooperation between Xiuxi and Liuchen is just like the fusion of military strategy and trickery. When the two attacked, Xiuxi was in the middle and distracted others, while Liuchen was watching the dynamics and controlling the situation. Subsequently, Xiuxi put on a position head-on, and the other party took advantage of his choice or rejected the risk, and thus relaxed his vigilance. After that, Liuchen turned against the guest and looked for an opportunity to win.

According to Chan'er's guess, the person who advocates a breakthrough by splitting paths to increase the possibility of defeating the Heng army should be Xiuxi. As for Liuchen, out of his usual caution, under the cover of multiple marches, he would instead tend to concentrate his forces and advocate attacking "Zhongnan" with all his might, leaving no way out.

In fact, it is. Xiuxi did the above, middle, and lower division of troops, and then the adjustment of the strength of the three armies was done by Liuchen -- two out of ten of the most powerful left soldiers on the east side were transferred to the weakest right army on the west side, so that the right army could improve its combat strength and contain the constant army on the west side. Then take two out of ten of the left sergeants and transfer them to the Middle Route Army, so as to suppress the Heng Army stationed in the "Zhongnan Dynasty".

Although for a while, Chan'er had not yet figured out this aspect of the adjustment of the Yi army's strength, but she already knew clearly that the strength of the left army on the east side was actually an illusion, and the most critical thing was the battle for the Zhongnan Ancient Road. However, at this moment, almost all the palace people who can go into battle in the Demon Palace are in front of the battle, and there is a shortage of manpower in the palace, but the special situation is current, and there is no room for more consideration, Chan'er had to call Huang Feng and Yunwu to accompany him and rush to the battlefield in person.
