At this moment, the grain and grass were destroyed, and the morale of the soldiers under him was low, and at this time they should find a way to supplement the grain and grass to improve their morale.

Attacking Tianguangning County is an opportunity, but in this case, unless you win with a drum, you will be entangled by the defenders of Guangning County, and Tai Shici will lead Youzhou soldiers and horses to attack back and forth, and the Xiongnu will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

"Chief, the grain and grass are destroyed, and the army's heart is fluctuating, if the remaining grain and grass are burned again, how can the soldiers survive?" The adjutant general warned the leader, could it be that the leader lost his mind because the grain and grass were destroyed? Since Qiangqu sent troops to today, he has never suffered such a big loss, could it be that he can't bear this huge defeat in his heart?

Qiangqu led his troops all the way east, and ran through the border of Daijun for nearly 100 miles without encountering the enemy, but recently he was defeated, first of all, he underestimated Tai Shici, and sent soldiers to attack Huai'an County, causing heavy casualties. This shocked Qiangqu, and this sudden event broke all of Qiangqu's plans.

"Chief, I didn't expect that there would be such a resourceful man in the official army, and just a few people would destroy our entire grain and grass camp. At this moment, our army is in turmoil, the best way is to lead the troops to leave, fortunately our soldiers casualties are not large, as long as we have elite soldiers in our hands, we have a comeback. The adjutant general advised Qiangqu, and now the morale of the soldiers has been greatly reduced, and they no longer have the courage to attack, and most importantly, there is no food and grass supply. Without overnight food, soldiers will not be able to fight with peace of mind.

The deputy general understood what Qiang Qu meant, and he let himself lead his troops to withdraw first. Evacuate because the grain and grass were destroyed, even if it is spread out of the Qiangqu, there is no shame, because almost everyone will choose to leave.

But Qiang Qu didn't think so, turned a deaf ear to the adjutant general's advice, and directly gave an order: "Execute the order." ”

Even though he couldn't figure out why Qiangqu was like this, he didn't dare to disobey Qiangqu's order, so he could only bow down and obey the order.

Seeing the remaining grain and grass quickly turn to ashes under the devouring of the flames, the general shook his head and sighed secretly. It is a pity that this grain and grass, which could have been used as food rations for leaving, is now burned.

At this time, Zhao Yi of Huai'an County was discussing with Tai Shici and others how to deal with the Qiang Canal, Zhao Yi and Tai Shi Ci and others had similar views, thinking that the grain and grass were destroyed, and the Qiang Canal would lead the troops to evacuate for the sake of prudence, and return to the Xiongnu tribe to recuperate, so Zhao Yi and others were studying the way to the Xiongnu tribe and wanted to intercept the Qiang Canal on the way.

The plan of action has been determined, and we are waiting for news from Tanma. If the Qiangqu Department was evacuating, Zhao Yi would send Tai Shici and others to ambush on the way.

After waiting for a long time, the Tanma who went to investigate finally brought the news, and Tai Shici asked after seeing the Tanma: "Has the Qiangqu Department begun to evacuate?" ”

Tanma shook his head and explained the situation of the Qiangqu Department that he had observed: "General Qiyu, not only did the Qiangqu Department not evacuate, but also burned all the remaining grain and grass. Although Tanma's behavior towards Qiangqu is very strange, this is not a question that he should think about as a Tanma, he only needs to report the news accurately to Zhao Yi and others.

Tai Shici, Murong Fu and the others had puzzled faces on their faces, and they didn't know what Qiang Qu meant by this move. Zhao Yi also showed a rare look of surprise on his face, groping his chin and walking back and forth in the hall. Qiangqu's behavior is a bit abnormal, as the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong. Qiangqu must be planning something.

Zhao Yi thought for a while, his steps suddenly stopped, and a look of jealousy flashed in his eyes: "It's not good!" ”

"Bad?" Tai Shici and Murong Fu were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked Zhao Yi: "Did the adults guess the intentions of the Qiangqu Department?" ”

Zhao Yi slowly knelt down and sat down, without directly explaining, but asked, "Do you know the battle of the giant deer led by Xiang Yu that day?" ”

"Naturally, I remember." Tai Shici and Murong Fu said directly that although Xiang Yu and Liu Bang failed to compete for the throne, the generals still respected Xiang Yu very much. The destruction of the cauldron is a typical classic battle commanded by Xiang Yu to win more with less, and Tai Shici naturally remembers it very clearly.

Zhao Yi smiled bitterly: "Qiangqu's actions are a bit ruined. "Burning the remaining grain and grass, and not having the intention of retreating, has already indicated that it will fight to the death with the officers and soldiers.

Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu's faces became extremely ugly, and the strength of the soldiers of Qiangqu's department, Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu had already learned from them. If Qiangqu is determined to fight to the death with the official army, even if there are 20,000 Wuhuan soldiers to help and kill 50,000 Huns, the official army is afraid that it will also suffer heavy casualties.

"If that's the case, how can our ministry defend itself?" Tai Shi Ci was already a little panicked, even if he killed 1,000 enemies and lost 800 himself, if the official army fought to the death with the Hun soldiers, how would they deal with the invasion of the rest of the Yi tribe in the future?

Murong Fu was not very optimistic about this battle either. In the past, when Xiang Yu broke the kettle and sank the boat, some of his soldiers asked how to eat and drink when the pot stove was destroyed. Xiang Yu replied: "Let's bury the pot and cook in the camp of the Qin army." "Leaving no way back, desperate to rely on the courage of this decisive battle, Xiang Yu defeated the main force of the Qin army in one fell swoop.

Although Murong Fu and Tai Shici did not go to the Xiongnu camp, they could also guess one or two of Qiangqu's words to encourage the army, at this time the Xiongnu army had arrived at the Jedi, and if they wanted to survive, they could only take Huai'an County.

The Xiongnu army is in a desperate situation, and it will definitely burst out with strong combat effectiveness, and the Xiongnu soldiers, whose strength is above the official army, will be even more difficult to deal with at that time.

Zhao Yi sighed, opened the map of Daijun, and said with some concern: "I'm not worried about Qiangqu's attack on Huai'an County. "After all, there are tens of thousands of troops guarding Huai'an County, and it will take a lot of time for the Hun army to break through. If they cannot win a battle, the Xiongnu soldiers will definitely lose their vigor and their combat effectiveness will drop sharply.

The Xiongnu army pays attention to one go, and if such a strong opponent is selected in Huai'an County, it is very likely that he will return home, so Zhao Yi is not worried about Huai'an County. Zhao Yi pointed his finger somewhere on the map: "I'm worried about this place." ”

Tai Shici and Murong Fu came over and looked: "Guangning County?!" Are you saying that Qiangqu will attack the county seat of Quang Ninh? ”

"Yes, before this official came to Huai'an County, he had spent a few hours in Guangning County and had a little understanding of the situation in Guangning County. And Qiangqu naturally knows no less than us. Zhao Yi stood up and slowly moved his steps, "There are only 5,000 soldiers guarding Guangning County now, and it will definitely not be able to stop the impact of the 50,000 Hun soldiers who are like wolves and tigers. ”

Zhao Yi's worries were very reasonable, and Tai Shici and Murong Fu couldn't help but nod, "If that's the case, why don't we send half of the soldiers to support Guangning County." Tai Shi Ci proposed.

Murong Fu just wanted to agree, but was stopped by Zhao Yi waving his hand: "Don't act like this." At this time, the initiative is in the hands of Qiangqu, and if we transfer troops, we are afraid that Qiangqu will temporarily change its plan and target us. ”

The initiative is in the hands of Qiangqu, and he can fight whoever he wants. Zhao Yi and the others are now in a dilemma, and their actions are quite restricted.

"So what are we going to do?" Tai Shici subconsciously looked at Zhao Yi, hoping that Zhao Yi could get an idea.

Zhao Yi also felt a little tricky, Qiangqu's move was a broken jar, Zhao Yi's troops were more than enough to defend one city, but if he guarded two, it would be a little difficult.

"The attack on the Qiangqu depends on the morale of the soldiers, if we can intercept in the middle and vent the sharpness of the Qiangqu, then the Xiongnu army will be short of food and grass, and it will definitely fail." Murong Fu is right, but when he goes to Guangning County, there is no suitable place to arrange ambushes, and if he wants to give Qiangqu a severe blow head-on, the officers and soldiers will definitely have to pay a heavy price.

Zhao Yi waved his hand lightly and also denied Murong Fu's method, not to mention that there was no ambush location on the way, and even whether the soldiers who went out of the city could hide the horses laid by the Xiongnu in Huai'an County was a problem.

Although Zhao Yi did not agree with Murong Fu's method, Murong Fu's words gave Zhao Yi a revelation, he had already thought of a plan in his heart when his eyes turned, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he turned his head to the table and wrote a letter with a pen, and handed it to Lou Man: "Send this letter to the county magistrate of Guangning County as soon as possible, and let him act according to the instructions in the letter." "The county magistrate of Guangning County left here quickly this morning because he was worried about Guangning County.

Lou Man did not hesitate at all, and walked down.

Although Tai Shici and Murong Fu didn't know the content of the letter, seeing that Zhao Yi actually asked Lou Man to send the letter, they could guess that the content of the letter must be very important, and what was written on it might be a strategy to control the enemy.

Seeing the confident smile on Zhao Yi's face, Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu's panicked mood suddenly stabilized, Zhao Yi had become their backbone, as long as Zhao Yi was not panicked, Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu could be calm.

"Order your subordinates to pay close attention to the situation in the Qiangqu department, and report the slightest change immediately!" Zhao Yi passed down the order, and hundreds of scouts from the state capital army bowed out of the city to explore.

Tai Shi Ci and Murong Fu just wanted to ask Zhao Yi what clever plan he had come up with, but Zhao Yi had already issued an order: "The commander immediately ordered the army of the state capital to quickly assemble and stand by. ”

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Tai Shici hurriedly went down to prepare. Zhao Yi stared at the west, a gloomy smile on his face.

As Zhao Yi expected, Qiangqu led his troops to Huai'an County after boosting morale. The state capital Tanma brought the news as soon as possible.

"My lord, the Qiangqu Department is really going to Guangning County, let's send troops now." Tai Shi Ci bowed and stood up.

Different from Tai Shi Ci's eagerness, Zhao Yi waved his hand and pressed Tai Shi Ci: "Don't panic, Du Wei, now is not the time to make a move." ”

The Qiangqu Department has now gone to Guangning County, and the war can be described as a thousand moments. Although Tai Shici didn't know what the clever plan in Zhao Yi's letter was, he knew that sometimes a second could decide the victory of the battle, so how could he delay time like this.

Zhao Yi saw the eagerness on the faces of Tai Shici and the others, and gave them a reassurance: "Don't worry, the Qiangqu department is dead this time!" ”
