"May the people give it, and then reward it?"

Gongsun Ce chanted three times in a row, and then he was shocked and sighed: "I once wished to worry about the worries of the world first, and enjoy the joys of the world after the world." I never thought that my wishes were still far inferior to yours. Your ambition can be described as the first person in ancient and modern times. ”

Wang Mang's face turned a little red, and he shook his head and said, "Mr. Gongsun, you don't have to say these polite words again." From ancient times to the present, the winner is king, and the loser is the loser. If you have an empty ambition and ideal, if you fail, is it worthless?

At present, the state of our army is also known to him. Mr. came from Li Zhong's side, and he must know some inside information. I wonder if Mr. has a good plan? To help our army tide over this? ”

When it came to business, Gongsun Ce's face was straight, and the light of wisdom in his eyes flickered non-stop.

It didn't take long for him to say with a look of strategizing and winning thousands of miles away: "Lord Wang, a certain family is here to offer a plan to help your lord fight against the rebellious minister and thief Pi Tong. ”

"Oh? Sir, do you really have a good plan? You can come quickly. ”

Wang Mang got up and came to Gongsun Ce and pulled him to sit on the top seat.

Then, Wang Mang sat down on the lower seat and asked, "Mr. Gongsun, can you tell me about the plan?" If it is feasible, Sir can lead the whole army to destroy the enemy. ”

Seeing that Wang Mang was so polite and virtuous, Gongsun Ce's heart warmed again, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, although that Pi Tong is a chaotic minister and thief, he does have a strategy in his chest, and we can't help but guard against it." At present, he has 3,000 iron cavalry and 6,000 male soldiers, for a total of 9,000 elite soldiers. With the five elements of mutual restraint, the army of Tianlong Mountain blocks the way of our army.

As for the situation of our army, I also knew about it when I passed by the Tiger Prison Pass. There were only three thousand infantry and one thousand iron horsemen. And half of these soldiers and horses still defected from the Tiger Prison Pass.

Under normal circumstances, it would be even more difficult for such troops to fight against Pi Tong's 9,000 army. Regarding these situations in our army, Pi Tong must also know everything about it and believe that victory is in his hands. Therefore, we can plan accordingly. ”

"How?" Chen Chong hurriedly asked, "Gongsun Ce, if you can help us retreat from the enemy this time, I am willing to treat you as a teacher every time I see you in the future." ”

"It's not necessary, as long as Lord Chen can let go of our past grievances, and work together with me to assist Lord Wang in the future and conspire with great things."

Gongsun Ce said in a deep voice: "On that day, Lord Wang led the army to defeat Li Zhong, and one of the strategies used was to use the weak to defeat the strong, and to surprise him. Now, we can use it again. Therefore, my idea is that we can form a team of more than 100 dead soldiers. This team of dead soldiers must all have the courage of ten thousand people, and be able to fight without fear of death.

Then, take this group of dead soldiers as a surprise soldier. With the ability to fight bravely, with the momentum of thunder, he directly broke into the opponent's formation and reached its rear. Burn its heavy grain and grass, and mess with its army's morale. Subsequently, when our troops saw the other side, the whole army immediately attacked from the right side.

When Pi Tong saw the fire, he would definitely think that we were going to take advantage of the situation to attack, so he would also take more precautions. Later, when he saw that our army was fighting from his right flank, he would think that your lord was going to perform the last strategy of attacking the east and the west, thinking that we should divide our troops into two or three ways to attack.

Therefore, in the face of such a situation, he can only continue to defend tightly. In this way, with 4,000 soldiers and horses, we can take him by surprise. ”

"This..."

Wang Mang frowned, "Your plan is a conspiracy and is very risky. First, Pi Tong is good at arranging formations, so his Five Elements Array should be mysterious. In this way, the death of more than 100 people in that team must be in danger. If you are not careful, you will be wiped out.

Second, even if the plan of the dead soldier is successful, when our army is killed from the right flank, how can you guarantee that Pi Tong will not join forces? Once he sees through the plan and joins forces, won't we be surrounded by each other? ”

"Hahaha, Lord Wang has such worries, how can I not know?" Gongsun Ce said with a smile: "Pi Tong's Five Elements Formation is indeed powerful, but I have also seen one or two in my early years and know where its flaws are. As for the group of dead soldiers, it is indeed dangerous to charge in the midst of ten thousand armies, and there is no way, so I have to have the courage of all ten thousand people to take on this heavy responsibility.

In the end, if Pi Tong joins forces in one place, won't the people in our rear be able to quickly pass through the defense line? Pi Tong is here just to intercept us and prevent us from passing. Therefore, he had to divide his forces to stand in front no matter what. In this way, although the other side has 9,000 soldiers and horses, there are not so many soldiers and horses available. ”

"No, it won't work."

Wang Xun, He Jin and the rest of the strategists all shook their heads and said, "Let's not talk about anything else, let's just say that our army is all killed from the right flank, and this move is also very dangerous." If you are not careful, it is like entering a quagmire and swamp, and it is difficult to get out. ”

"Conspiracy, conspiracy? What is a conspiracy? Surprise also. All of this must be done in a blink of an eye, without delay. After our troops fought out from the right flank, the enemy was caught off guard. In an instant, you will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the other party.

Then, when the enemy army came with additional troops, our army should quickly withdraw and hold on to its foot. At present, we can only attack its two flanks with the whole army for the time being, continue to disturb it, and continue the morale of the army. Back then, Sun Bin and Tian Ji used this plan for horse racing. If we keep avoiding the war, the army's morale will be in chaos. ”

Yuan Qing asked: "If the enemy has been defeated for a while, gives up the formation, and joins forces in one place, how can we resist it?" ”

"The army can be scattered on all sides, hidden, and still disturbed." Gongsun Ce said: "They are in one place, it is strong, and we should avoid it." If they do not join forces, they are weak, and we should attack them together, which was the essence of horse racing back then. Also, our army must not delay here for too long. Otherwise, Li Zhong will definitely lead the army to kill him, and at that time, we will have nothing to do. ”

After Gongsun Ce finished speaking, he secretly glanced at Wang Mang, indicating that there were arrangements behind him.

Wang Mang saw his eyes, he was stunned at first, and then he had a plan in his heart, and said to everyone: "Although this plan is dangerous, there is still a feasible way."

In addition, we don't have a good plan at present, so we can only do this risky plan and see the after-effects. Generals, you can go back and make arrangements first. In addition, when recruiting dead soldiers, it is necessary to explain the situation to them and ask for their consent. ”

When the generals saw Wang Mang nodding in agreement with this dangerous plan, it was not easy to persuade them again. They had to obey the orders and leave the tent to arrange the arrangement.

After the generals left, Gongsun Ce lowered his voice and said, "Lord Wang, Pi Tong is cunning. The other army obviously has absolute superiority, but it just does not enter the army, but only intercepts the road and forces us to take the initiative to attack. This is his plan to cut off your prestige in one fell swoop. ”

"I also know about this, but I can't help it because of the lack of soldiers."

Wang Mang smiled bitterly: "According to the current situation, our army cannot easily retreat back. Although the Tiger Prison Pass is dangerous, it is actually a scourge for us. Once our army begins to retreat, the will of the people will surely change. At that time, it will be extremely difficult for me to take advantage of the momentum again. ”
