Mai Mengcai, who was wrapped in a white cloth belt on his head and wrapped in a military uniform in his filial piety uniform, flashed a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, and said: "General Wang, please understand our brother's feelings, Ah Da has just died in battle, our Mai family brothers, and all the family members, all want to avenge Daddy, if we just want to save our lives, what do we have to do on this front line?" ”

Wang Shichong's face sank, and he said coldly: "Captain Mai, now that I am the supreme commander here, as a subordinate, you have to obey the general's orders." Besides, before your father left, he entrusted you to me, I can't let you have any more mistakes, don't worry, according to my plan, I will definitely let you have a chance to take revenge, and you will never return empty-handed! ”

Mai Mengcai nodded, and took Mai Zhongcai to retreat, this time the three of them had already discussed, the youngest younger brother Mai Jicai returned to his hometown with his father's coffin, and the two of them as elder brothers led their subordinates to continue the war. As soon as they heard that Wang Shichong received the military order this time, and crossed the river tonight, they pestered Wang Shichong and repeatedly asked for war, Wang Shichong had no choice but to agree, but with the three chapters of the law, he wanted all his actions to obey the command, and he was willing to take them.

There was a sound of horses' hooves from far and near, Wang Shichong turned his head to look, it was Wei Zheng, who was wearing a personal soldier costume and leather armor and helmet, like a general, under the escort of Shan Xiongxin and other martial artists, ran over, Wei Zheng rolled the saddle and dismounted, walked in front of Wang Shichong, wiped the sweat on his face, and said: "General, live up to the mission, everything has been done." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "It's hard work." He turned back to a sergeant on duty with an hourglass and asked, "What time is it?" ”

The sergeant hurriedly replied, "Back to the general, it's a quarter of the hour (11:15 at night)." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Very good, pass on my general order, light the purple wolf smoke!" ”

A pyre that had already been prepared was ignited by the fire. With the addition of some combustion-supporting materials, a purple smoke rose into the sky, and then, similar purple wolf smoke was lit in the villages along the river of the Sui army, and hundreds of large fires were burning at the same time. And in each camp, gongs and drums are noisy at the same time, and the trumpets are loud.

Fei Qingnu and the others didn't know Wang Shichong's battle plan, after assembling here in the afternoon today, they only saw Wang Shichong keep letting Wei Zheng and other subordinates run here and there, but they didn't know what medicine Wang Shichong sold in his gourd, seeing this, Fei Qingnu finally couldn't help it and stepped forward. He asked, "General Wang, aren't we smuggling?" Isn't such a fanfare to let the enemy know about the movements of our army? ”

Wang Shichong took out a piece of order arrow with an expressionless face and handed it to a herald colonel beside him, and the junior colonel left with the order, and soon, the village behind him was also full of gongs and drums. Thousands of sergeants began beating gongs and drums and striking shields with arrows. Even the catapult behind the village threw out more than a dozen stones, all of which fell in the middle of the Liao River, stirring up huge water columns.

Wang Shichong smiled and said: "General Fei, this is a suspicious tactic, Goguryeo is now withdrawing its troops, and there are not enough soldiers in each battalion to defend." In the area where we are, the current is very fast at night, but in the morning it is relatively slow and we can cross the river. Therefore, the time of our attack should be chosen. ”

Fei Qingnu understood a little, he nodded, and said: "So General Wang, you want to use a suspicious tactic to make the other party not rest, and you don't understand the main direction of our army's attack, right?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, if you want to outflank the troops in the main camp of Goguryeo, you can't be too far away, if you leave a hundred miles away, it will only let their main force slip away in advance, at most catch a tail, but if you are too close to them to force the crossing, it will cause a lot of losses, so I chose this place, twenty-five miles away from the camp, the water flow is fast, usually Goguryeo will not be used as the main defense point, but this is within the attack range of their cavalry, if they are the first to force the crossing, it will definitely attract their cavalry to attack, Therefore, our army must combine the virtual with the real. ”

Fei Qingnu nodded, and the cyan birthmark on his face jumped: "Then let's just keep pretending until Yin, and then attack, right?" ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "No, I want the three troops of Wei Wensheng, Wang Rengong and Xue Shixiong from the upstream to cross the river first." ”

Wei Zheng's brows furrowed: "General Wang, I also think that you are a little too big this time, they are not under your orders, why should they cross the river first?" After the first battle the day before yesterday, these three armies facing the Goguryeo battalion knew that the other party was a hard nut to crack, and in order to preserve their own strength, they would definitely not send the whole army. ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Yes, they will not be the first to cross the river by themselves, but if others cross the river, they will definitely not be willing to be left behind, so now my order is, open the gate of the village and attack!" ”

Yang Qianshou stood on the high platform in the big camp where Yuan Taizuo and Yizhi Wende stood a few days ago, with a solemn expression, looking at the Sui army camp opposite, in the hundreds of miles of the company camp, the fire dragon was shaking almost constantly, and the stones launched by the catapult, with a sharp whistling sound, kept crossing the air, with a huge sound of wind, falling into the river or smashing into the camp fence in front of the shore, and from time to time there was a huge sound of water waves.

Yang Chengzhe, a deputy general in his early forties, with a white skin and a mustache, stood beside Yang Qianshou, he was also Yang Qianshou's think tank and strategist, he sighed: "City Lord, it seems that Lord Yizhi's intelligence is really right, the Sui army looks like it is about to attack in an all-out way, this is not a tired strategy." ”

Yang Qianshou nodded: "I have 10,000 infantry, enough to hold this camp within a radius of ten miles, and the order, all the archers will retreat, fifty steps away from the fence, and wait for the Sui army to cross the river, listen to my order and then step forward." ”

Yang Chengzhe blinked: "City Lord, don't you use a bow and arrow to kill and injure when they cross the river?" ”

Yang Qianshou smiled and shook his head: "No, after they get ashore, they will attack with bows and arrows, and then use cavalry to flank them, I don't think the Sui army will be so stupid and rush over from the front." Should they be the main force or will cross the river from both flanks. ”

Yang Chengzhe nodded: "But the archers of our army are all in the camp, and there are only a few hundred stragglers from other cities in those sub-villages, if the enemy army smuggles from both wings, they can't stop it at all." How do we deal with it? (To be continued......)
