Chen Wenzhou left the headquarters and walked to his camp.

As he passed through the tents along the way, he heard some soldiers talking.

"Second dog, I said that you kid has to take it easy, just order dry food, where can you find it after eating?"

"Alas, I don't know what General Li thinks, he didn't bring grain and grass to carry weight, which is good, as soon as he arrived at Cangtou River, he was almost out of rations."

"I heard that it was the meaning of the master Chen, he said that the soldiers are fast and fast, and bringing grain and grass will slow down the speed."

"No matter how fast you are, you can't go hungry to war! I think that Master Chen has a problem with his brain! ”

"Huh! Be quiet! ”

……

Chen Wenzhou listened for a while, did not delay any longer, and rushed back to his camp.

He knew that the responsibility was heavy, it was his idea to travel lightly and without heavy grain and grass, if the grain and grass were sufficient, he could spend a period of time with Ling Kun and slowly find a way to break the enemy.

But now that the grain and grass are in short supply, the army's morale is unstable, and if it is unable to take the upper valley of the Cangtou River for a long time, it has no choice but to withdraw the army.

If the army is withdrawn, won't it be a slap in the face?

At the beginning, he swore to fight to raise the war, and the slogan was loud and earth-shattering, but this was good, he returned the same way without firing a shot, and he Chen Kongming couldn't afford to lose this person.

To put it mildly, it's like sitting back on the you pulled out.

"Within tomorrow, you must take the Cangtou River," Chen Wenzhou slammed his fist on the map, "Ribi Lao'er, since we are so close, hehe, then Kong Ming will make trouble under your nose!" ”

It wasn't until the middle of the moon that Chen Wenzhou rolled up the map, and he already had a preliminary battle plan in his mind.

In the early morning of the next day, as soon as the sky was exposed, Chen Wenzhou called Li Siye, and the two of them inspected the favorable combat terrain nearby.

The two rode their horses to the position of half a mile upstream of the camp, Chen Wenzhou looked at the speed of the water and the width of the river, pointed to the upstream and said to Li Siye: "Further up, the river narrows, the water is urgent, and it is too deep for the war horse to wade through." ”

Li Siye nodded, "Fortunately, it is the dry season in winter, and the amount of water is not large, otherwise we won't be able to cross the river without building a bridge or boat." ”

"General, can you see the big camp here?" Chen Wenzhou asked.

Li Siye looked at the formation and nodded.

"Then do you think the rebels can see their camp from this position on the opposite side?"

Li Siye looked at the terrain and said affirmatively: "The river here is very straight, the line of sight is very good, we can see our own camp, they must also be able to see our camp." ”

"That's good," Chen Wenzhou said with a smile.

"Are you alright?" Li Siye said angrily, "If you plan to cross the river from here, the rebel battalion will definitely be able to see it and support it at any time." ”

"Hehe, I'm afraid they won't support it," Chen Wenzhou said with an incomprehensible smile.

"Wen Zhou, what do you mean?"

"Ahem, ahem, Hugh wants to listen to military secrets! Be careful that I convict you of leaking secrets, besides, I have to make a blame under their noses to show that my Chen Kongming's level is not. ”

"You prank!"

……

The two rode their horses half a mile downstream, and after visual inspection, they could not cross the river any further.

As Nan Jiyun said, there is only about a mile of river beach near Daying, which is relatively gentle and can cross the river.

Further up or down, the water becomes stronger, and the channel narrows and deepens.

The officers and men of the Right Front Army were amazed when they saw the general and the chief bookkeeper riding horses together, flying with wings: The struggle between the first and second leaders has lasted for thousands of years in the Chinese nation like the battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and it is obvious that such a harmonious and happy leadership relationship is now rare.

The two inspected the terrain, and Chen Wenzhou told Li Siye that he had a strategic plan in his heart, and he could gather the generals to arrange the formation.

The generals gathered and sat down according to the shift. Li Siye sat on the main seat, and Chen Wenzhou sat beside him.

Li Siye signaled to Chen Wenzhou that he could give an order.

Chen Wenzhou stood up and began to point to the general: "After thinking all night and General Li's great help, I finally came up with an overall battle plan, where is Captain Nan Jiyun of the Yue Cavalry?" ”

Nan Jiyun got up and clenched his fists: "The end will be!" ”

"Ling, you lead four hundred Yue cavalry as a striker! Go to the place half a mile downstream and wave your flag and shout, pretend to cross the river, wait for the rebels to divide their troops to support, you pretend to cross the river, and then withdraw to the camp, there must be no mistake! Remember, the play must be performed really, but it is also necessary to avoid the soldiers being substantially harmed, and the proportions of it are handled by themselves! ”

"Order!"

"Li Fei Yuanli!"

"The last general!"

"You lead four hundred jumping horses to half a mile upstream from here, wave your flag and shout, pretend to cross the river, and wait for the rebels to divide their troops to support, you are like Nan Jiyun, pretend to cross the river, and then withdraw to the camp, there must be no mistake!"

"Order!"

"Hun Xuan!"

"The last general!"

"You lead 400 cavalry to garrison the Chinese army, and at the same time collect the torches of the whole army to make a torch rack, remember, each torch rack must be able to place more than three torches at the same time! It must be prepared before the application time! Make no mistake! ”

"Order!"

"Will the generals have any orders?"

"The last will be ordered!"

"Violators will be killed! Chen Wenzhou shouted, and the two generals stood on the left and right sides of Chen Wenzhou, shouting: "Violators are killed!" ”

In the end, the generals received the arrows and went their separate ways.

Cangtou River Jingbian Army Battalion.

"Newspaper-" The flag officer rushed into the camp, "Report to the general!" Tang Dog's team of about 400 people rode downstream! ”

"Probe!"

"Order!"

"Huh? Could it be that the Tang dog is ready to cross the river from downstream? Ling Kun wondered.

Before the generals could answer.

"Newspaper-" Another flag officer entered the camp, "Report to the general!" Tang Dog and another team of about 400 horses rode upstream! ”

"Probe!"

"Order!"

"General Ling! Tang Dog is going to divide his troops to cross the river! A general said.

"General, Tang Dog's men and horses are scattered, and the camp tent is empty at this time, why don't we take this opportunity to cover up the past and catch him off guard!" The general continued.

Ling Kun was noncommittal, his brows locked into Sichuan characters, thinking that Li Siye was also an outstanding figure in the Shuofang army, how could he disperse the troops and horses and make the formation empty?

This doesn't make sense.

Ling Kun touched his long beard and thought for a long time, then shook his head, "No! This must be Tang Gou's strategy to lure the enemy! ”

"How so?" The general asked, confused.

Ling Kun had already gained insight into the conspiracy, and said confidently: "Although Tang Dog only has 1,200 people, they are all cavalry, mobile and flexible, and they come and go like the wind. If we wait for this moment to cover up the past and wade through the water, the speed will be greatly reduced, and before we can completely cross the river, the 800 cavalry sent out by Tang Gou will definitely be able to return to the aid quickly. Most of the officers and men of our army are foot shooters, not Tang dog elite opponents, so aren't we the meat on the case to be slaughtered? ”

The generals suddenly realized, nodded yes, and praised Ling Kun's old and serious attitude.

"General, what are we going to do now?"

Ling Kun stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, pass on my orders, and divide the troops to refuse!" ”

At that moment, Ling Kun sent 800 infantry to the downstream to block the enemy, 800 infantry to the upstream to block the enemy, and the rest of the men and horses defended in the Chinese army.

As a result, a harmonious and beautiful picture was formed, with the rebels' men and horses across the Cangtou River, moving and staying with the movement of the Shuofang soldiers and horses, just like two lovers crossing the river.

Chen Wenzhou, who was in the main formation, looked at this scene and sighed in his heart: My sister is sitting on the bow of the boat, and my brother is walking on the shore.
