In the afternoon, in the royal palace of Bai Township. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The two laurel trees newly planted for the Thousand Autumn Festival of Queen Fuyi are still standing quietly in front of the jade veil hall, but the surrounding scenery is no longer any joyful, and the whole palace is full of vegetarianism.

Yan Guohou sat in the jade gauze hall, wearing a plain python pattern silk gown, with a lot of gray hair on his sideburns overnight, and his face was haggard, as if he was more than ten years old.

The envoys of Yiguo and Lu stood respectfully below and said in unison: "I am willing to elect Yan Guohou as the leader of the alliance of Yan, Yiguo and Lu." It is hoped that the three countries will be able to advance and retreat together in the face of the army of Qi State, share the same hatred for the enemy, and trust each other and align with each other no matter what situation they encounter. ”

Listening to their words, Yan Guohou couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried.

He stood up from the mahogany throne and said in a firm tone: "Since the Three Kingdoms have become allies, in order to show the determination of the Yan Kingdom, I am willing to swear to the heavens that no matter what the situation is, the Yan Kingdom will never fail to benefit the country and the Lu country, and will fight with the allies to the last drop of blood." ”

The envoys of the two countries received such an oath from Yan Guohou that they would not leave a way back, settled down, and hurried back to resume their lives. Yan Guohou didn't want to waste any time, he called Su Chuan to the study and discussed with him the next strategy for dealing with the Great Qi army.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Chuan entered the study, he spoke first: "Father, my sister has found it." ”

Yan Guohou's eyes lit up: "Where is it?" ”

"In an ancient temple ten miles east of the city." Su Chuan said loudly, "It was the forbidden army captain Gui Haimo who escorted his sister." Today he sent back the news that two days ago, the queen mother found out that there was a strange phase in the sky, and I was afraid that something would happen, so she sent her sister to the ancient temple. ”

"You send someone to Guihai Mo to bring a message, and ask him to protect the princess and stay in the ancient temple for the time being. Wait for my order to go back to Baixiang. Yan Guohou said to Su Chuan.

Then, he added: "Guihai Mo is a child of the royal family, and he can be regarded as his own person, and Nichuan is relieved to have his protection." Tell him that as long as he protects the princess wholeheartedly, when he returns to Baixiang, he will be promoted to the third rank. ”

Su Chuan responded and turned his head and walked out of the Yusha Palace.

In the hall, there was only one person left, Yan Guohou, and he thought carefully - the Great Qi army had advanced weapons and strong strength, so it was not suitable for a frontal confrontation, and it should be used to calm the brakes and use time and geographical advantages to drag down the Great Qi army.

This is not a clever plan, but it is not in line with Yan Guohou's character. Although he was born in Jiangnan, the blood of the northern royal family that flowed in his body never cooled, and in his opinion, he either won or died in battle, and there was no middle way to go.

Since the three countries formed an alliance to resist the Great Qi army, there was no reason to wait and wait, and besides, the encirclement set up by the initiative to repel the Great Qi army last time played a decisive role.

So he set the direction of the battle, and when the Great Qi army was repairing and there was no sign of attack, the Triple Alliance cooperated with each other overnight to sneak attack the Great Qi military camp and attack it unprepared.

He felt that as long as the armies of the three kingdoms worked together and cooperated with each other, there was no good way for the large Qi army to win.

It was just getting dark, the lights inside and outside the palace were bright, and the neatly dressed generals and soldiers entered and exited the gate with solemn expressions.

The matching knife on his body collided with the steel armor and crackled, like a few muffled thunders that could not be suppressed after the rolling dark clouds when a midsummer storm was approaching.

Su Chuan, dressed in tiger-headed goose wings and bright light fine scale armor, held a golden-backed camel dragon spear, rode a bare-headed swallowtail foal to the gate of the Shuaifu, turned over and dismounted, and threw the spear in his hand to his entourage.

Although the two retinues reached out together to catch it with all their might, they were still pressed forward by the golden-backed hunchback dragon spear, and they staggered a few steps before they stood firm.

Entering the gate of the mansion, all the generals in the courtyard saw the king of the county coming, and they all stepped forward to greet him, Su Chuan's face was solemn, and he waved his hand to return the salute to these people, and walked towards the main hall without stopping.

Above the main hall, Yan Guohou was dressed in a seven-star ghost-faced Wen Shanjia and was commanding something to a general, and when he saw Su Chuan coming in, he nodded at him.

Su Chuan walked up to his father and kowtowed, and Yan Guohou said, "Tonight, the Great Qi army is still standing still. They don't move, but we can't do nothing. Instead of waiting here, take the initiative. ”

"This king has sent a fast horse to Yiguo and Lu to deliver a message, and arranged the location of their army ambush, the armies of our three kingdoms are united, even if Zhao Yuan is powerful, I am afraid it will be difficult to retreat tonight."

After listening to his father's words, Su Chuan carefully looked at the battle plan of the three kingdoms, and finally he said to his father: "Father, you have arranged for the Yiguo army to hide thirty miles outside Chongxi City, and after luring out the Great Qi army from the military camp, you will take advantage of its unpreparedness to give a fatal blow." ”

"But Erchen thinks that judging from the cautious and cunning style of the Great Qi army, I am afraid that they will not easily rush into the encirclement of the Yiguo army."

Yan Guohou pondered for a while and said, "What good way do you have?" ”

"If you want the Great Qi army to take the bait, you must offer the people they are interested in!"

"What do you mean......"

"Erchen is willing to take all the men and horses, rush through the swamp, get close to the Daqi military camp, and lure them out!" Su Chuan arched his hand.

Yan Guohou didn't know how to come back for a while, and his face became a little annoyed.

Don't blame him for being angry, Su Chuan is his only son and has been regarded as a treasure since he was a child. This will not only make Su Chuan want to go to the battlefield, but also to lure the enemy to the front peak in the most dangerous way, if it weren't for the presence of so many generals, Yan Guohou really wanted to teach him a few words.

But after thinking about it, this kid really used his brain, because his analysis of the Great Qi army was thorough. Indeed, without the strategy of luring the enemy, I am afraid that the Daqi army will not be fooled, and as long as this strategy is used, the person who can undertake the task of luring the enemy, Suchuan is indeed the most appropriate.

He is the county king of Yan Kingdom, with little combat experience, and the most important point is that catching him will likely become a turning point in the entire battle, because he is the only bargaining chip that can blackmail Yan Guohou.

Seeing that his father was still hesitating, Su Chuan took another step forward and said: "Father, the revenge for killing his mother has not been avenged, and if he does not let his son go to kill the enemy, his son will definitely have trouble sleeping." ”

"Besides, my son has reached the age of a weak crown, my father already had military merits when I was so old, and I haven't experienced a few big battles, so I am willing to ask my father to let his son inherit the heroic style of the Guihai family!"

Yan Guohou saw that he was still insisting, in addition to being annoyed, he was a little more relieved, thinking that he went to the battlefield at the beginning of the year, and his parents were also resistant, but the more this happened, the more he held his breath and must go, young people are probably like this.

Rather than this, it is better to let him give it a go, after all, sooner or later he will have to go through this hurdle, and Su Chuan will become the monarch in the future, and it is indispensable to lead troops to the battle.

Thinking of this, Yan Guohou's attitude was not as tough as just now, and he asked: "If you are the vanguard of luring the enemy, do you know that there are also some tricks to luring the enemy?" ”

Su Chuan replied: "To lure the enemy, first of all, you must leave a slow hand, the battle line of the team is extended, so that it is convenient to retreat flexibly, secondly, you must not get too close to the enemy, and only when there is a distance can the enemy force chase with all your strength, and secondly, you must go all out to engage the enemy, and the enemy can only believe it when you feint." ”

Yan Guohou listened and nodded: "The most important point is that luring the enemy is just baiting, and saving your life is the fundamental." ”

Su Chuan said: "Erchen wrote it down." ”

When the generals above the middle hall saw that the only son of the monarch was going to be the vanguard of the enemy, they all asked for their companions to protect the prince. Yan Guohou selected two people from it who were reliable and outstanding in martial arts to be Su Chuan's deputy general.

After the arrangements were made, Yan Guohou sat in the handsome seat and made unified arrangements for tonight's battle situation: "Daqi has been confronting several major pillar states for several days, and in order to prevent them from preparing for battle, our three-nation alliance forces must strike first to defeat the enemy and disrupt their plans. The specific arrangements are familiar to all the generals, so let's go! ”
