Chapter 830 Ambush, or Trap?
In Xu Chu's camp, the figures of scouts kept walking back and forth, reporting the situation of the Shu army.
In this regard, Xu Chu always sat there, his eyes flickered, and on his side, several partial generals were not turning their minds, and as the speed of the battle report was getting closer and closer, the news of the arrival of the Shu army was becoming more and more accurate.
"Tell the general, the Shu army is stationed in Huishan, sixty miles away, and is not heading towards this side!"
This is the last battle report.
As the scout walked out of the big tent, Xu Chu finally stood up, his eyes flickering slightly.
"He didn't even launch a direct attack, and he dared to station under the siege of my Quartet army?" A partial general beside him couldn't help but sneer: "It's just so good that we can gather troops and surround and kill them all!"
"This time, Emperor Xuande will not be able to fly even if he has wings!"
Xu Chu said lightly: "It's not that easy!"
"The soldiers are very fast, they have traveled all the way before, and almost all the scouts sent by our side have been killed, and it is only later that people start to come back one after another!"
"And as they get closer and closer, more and more people come back, do you think it's our scout skills getting bigger and bigger?"
"Hmph, this is the news they deliberately leaked!"
Xu Chu's gaze swept to the surrounding several partial generals, and continued: "They have only one purpose, that is, that we have the judgment of the right talent like you!"
"There is no flaw in our iron bucket defense at all, but it is also in the case of immobility, once the troops are mobilized, there will be unpredictable changes in it, and then they will have the opportunity to break through the defense and travel through the past!"
Hearing Xu Chu's words, the others lowered their heads one after another, especially the general who spoke just now, his face was flushed.
Xu Chu's gaze also fell on him: "You immediately lead the scout battalion, find out the situation of the opponent's troops, and report to me immediately! In addition, pass the news here to the other three generals!"
Speaking of this, a faint smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I'm sure that this army must not be the main force of Dashu, and Emperor Xuande has quietly touched it with the real main force!"
"It's just that we can't tell where they are!"
The general immediately went to carry out the order, but Xu Chu frowned and looked at the sand table in front of him: "Where will their real main force be?"
In their opinion, Dashu's troops are only about 100,000 people at most, and since they can make such a big move here, they should be about 30,000 to 40,000 people.
The crowd fell into deep thought.
Xu Chu was silent again, until two hours later, when the general went and returned: "General, we are close to a mountain peak about twenty miles away from them, don't dare to get too close!"
"The other party is indeed stationed on Huishan, looking at the density and scope of their arrangement, there are at least eighty or ninety thousand people!"
"What?" Xu Chu frowned: "How is it possible?"
According to their own speculation, it is impossible for the Shu army to have so many people, if the results they have detected are true, the team of 80,000 or 90,000 people is almost the number of all Shu troops.
Could it be that this is really the main force of Dashu?
Or is the reason why they are stationed here is to cover up the truth of the facts, let themselves have such speculations, so as to look for opportunities to break through the siege in one fell swoop?
After thinking about it, the general said again: "And I saw the figure of Emperor Xuande through my eyes!"
Xu Chu hurriedly grabbed his shoulder: "You can really see it, that's Emperor Xuande?"
The general nodded: "Although he has changed his dragon robe, but the aura and the attitude of those people around him towards him, his subordinates are sure that this person must be Emperor Xuande!"
Xu Chu was silent for a moment, and then continued to ask, "Can you see Guan Yunchang?"
The general shook his head: "The subordinates have been looking for a long time, but they haven't found Guan Yunchang's figure, he shouldn't be in this team, otherwise with his recognition, it is impossible to miss it!"
Xu Chu nodded: "Where will Guan Yunchang be?"
This time, the deployment of the Shu army gave him a great headache, and he played his cards completely out of common sense, true and false, completely confusing his thoughts.
The news here was also transmitted to the ears of Dian Wei and others for the first time.
Dian Wei and the other three famous generals also had a headache about this, and they didn't know what the Shu army was doing.
Under the premise that everyone discussed and still couldn't guess the other party's situation, Dian Wei and the others immediately passed the news to Sima Yi, the chief military division beside Emperor Mengde.
After Sima Yi got the news, he was silent for a long time, and it was also difficult for him to guess the other party's main purpose.
Immediately after consulting with the strategists, it was decided that each of the four troops should be divided into 50,000 men to go to Huishan to besiege and kill Emperor Xuande, and the others would respond to all changes with the same, and if there was any change, only Chu would be allowed to go to support.
After this order was issued, Sima Yi did not seem to be supportive and went to the battlefield alone.
The situation there was very complicated, and Zhuge Kongming was much quieter in comparison.
Nevertheless, the order was given at the moment, and it was the most important decision at this time.
But Sima Yi still didn't know what the other party's purpose was, he needed to enter the battlefield and understand the situation first-hand, and then he could guess the real purpose.
At the same time as Sima Yi set off, a total of 200,000 troops from the four camps were divided into four teams and marched towards Huishan, with the purpose of besieging Huishan and capturing Emperor Xuande alive.
However, just when everyone focused their attention on Huishan.
Three battle reports came suddenly.
First, Dian Wei's army of 50,000 was ambushed by a mysterious army, and only 20,000 fled back to the camp.
Then, Zhang Liao and Pang De's two armies were also ambushed, especially Pang De's 50,000 soldiers, none of whom came back, and stayed there forever.
Just as these battle reports were delivered, Sima Yi finally arrived.
Hearing the news of the three battlefields, Sima Yi's face also changed suddenly, and before he could react, Xu Chu finally passed on another piece of news.
Xu Chu's 50,000 soldiers had just arrived at the foot of Huishan, and suddenly 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers appeared from around.
Sima Yi stood beside the sand table, staring at the places where the battle reports came from for a long time and did not speak.
Next to him, Dian Wei and the others also didn't say a word, waiting for the evaluation of the military advisor.
After a long time, Sima Yi spoke: "We are all fooled, this time, they have no main force at all, but the troops are divided into four ways, and the real purpose is not only to break through the blockade, but also to destroy our living forces!"
"These 50,000 people are just a temptation, if my prediction is correct, they should be gathering towards Xu Chu's camp now, and they will attack soon!"
"From the point of view of troops, the other side should have about 120,000 troops, divided into four roads, and each road has 40,000 people!"
As soon as these words came out, Dian Wei and the others couldn't help but cast their eyes on the past, 40,000 people all the way, if it is divided into ideas, it is 160,000 people, is this a miscalculation of the military division?
Sima Yi smiled slightly: "Do you also think I miscalculated? Don't forget, the other party also has an independent army that can destroy the Yitian Army and the Yi Tian Army, I heard that it should be called the Six Banners Army!"
"The team that hasn't come back should have encountered the Six Banners Army!"
"Six Banner Army?" Dian Wei couldn't help but gasp, if the Six Banners Army was really present, the remaining hundred or so people on Xu Chu's side might not be able to support it until the last moment.
"Strategist, let's go to support immediately!"
Sima Yi shook his head: "Don't worry, they attacked this time, although they killed more than 100,000 of my army, but this is just the beginning!"
"Next, I'm going to lure them all out one by one and kill them one by one!"
A strategist beside Dian Wei suddenly said: "The judgment of the military advisor can be said to be extremely accurate, but his subordinates still have a question!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the strategist continued: "Why did Xu Chu send someone to pass on the news that there were as many as eighty or ninety thousand soldiers and horses on the Hui Mountain?"
Sima Yi smiled: "It's just a trick, make some wooden shelves, and then insert them between the mountains and forests, put on the armor of the soldiers, and look at it from a distance, just like a soldier!"
Everyone nodded their heads.
"Military advisor, give an order, the lives of these more than 100,000 brothers can't be sacrificed in vain, I want these people to pay for their blood debts!"
Sima Yi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Don't worry, none of them can escape, including the Six Banners Army!"
......
Just when the two sides battled wits and courage and began the next stage of planning, in the big tent of the Shu army in another place, Zhuge Kongming also received a piece of jade slip.
The Shu soldier who sent the jade slip left after sending the jade slip.
Zhuge Kongming placed the jade slip on the table, and more than a dozen generals around him were divided into two sides, and okra was also among them.
Glancing at everyone, Zhuge Kongming smiled faintly, with a slight touch of his fingertips, a light lit up, and immediately, the jade slip was immediately filled with breath.
Then, countless rays of light were projected from the jade slip, and then, a huge map was formed.
There were flags planted everywhere on the map, and nothing more.
"What kind of information is this? Could it be that it was sent by mistake?"
Many people have shifted their attention to Zhuge Kongming, hoping to see the clues in his eyes.
Zhuge Kongming smiled slightly: "It's not wrong, they are telling us that they are now breaking through into a four-way army!"
"Is there a four-way army?" a strategist suddenly said, "But there are only 100,000 people left around Your Majesty at most, and if you divide it into four routes, how many people will there be in each way?"
"Well, don't worry!"
Zhuge Kongming smiled slightly, and his eyes fell on the map again: "Since they didn't say anything, it means that they are sure!"
But when he landed his eyes on the flags, his brow suddenly furrowed slightly.
