The three lieutenants who came over immediately excitedly helped: That's it. General! You should recall them immediately! They're so unbelievable. How can a military commander rob us of our tasks? Do you want the whole army to be commanded? Going to the front line to fight is the business of sergeants. General! Recall them!

When the white tiger heard it, wasn't it? How can a lieutenant general sue the chief general so black? So he smiled. Pointing to the three lieutenants, he said, "The three of you are also itchy, aren't you?" Watching the Lord kill in front of you, your eyes are red? So after I copied them back, you're all right! Isn't it? ”

The three lieutenants were all virtuous, and they all smiled stupidly, but they didn't answer.

The white tiger looked at the situation on the battlefield and thought that now was the official time to recall, and the main general could not be recalled. But in order to meet the requirements of the three lieutenant generals, he ordered: "You take your own personal guards, go up and make a surprise attack, disrupt the position of the Wei army, and replace your main general for me!" Just say it's my command. ”

When the three lieutenants heard this, they shouted to the white tiger excitedly: "Obey the order!" "I forgot to pay respectful and ran away.

On the sixth day of the first month. Chenshi. The south head of the ghost ditch. Gongsun Ying, with Pang Xu, the commander of the 10th Army, and Zhao Hu, the commander of the 3rd Army, stood less than 50 steps away from the southern camp of the Wei army to check the situation. But after watching for a long time, the Wei army did not move at all, only the chaotic flags fluttered in the wind in the camp.

Pang took a look at it and shouted: "It's not good." The Wei army discovered our army's intentions and had already transferred people to Beigou to attack the northern end of our army, wanting to block the way of our army from the northern end. ”

Gongsun Ying replied lightly: "It doesn't matter. The two directly subordinate armies of the lord and Chen Xi are at the northern end, and there is no problem for the three armies to guard a ravine hundreds of steps wide. Let's go! There's nothing we do here. ”

Zhao Hu said a little unwillingly: "This Wei army is really, what is running if you fight well?" What about my military exploits yet? Left long! Look at my Third Army, what's going on? The entire sneak attack on Anyi did not make a decent contribution. finally got a tough battle to get through the ghost ditch, and it was only four days of fighting, and he was about to make a decent contribution, but the Wei army ran away again. ”

Gongsun Ying smiled slightly: "What are you sighing for?" You are in the midst of blessings and do not know blessings! There are many armies that have not even touched the edge of a tough battle. So what do they do? Be content! Walk. ”

The three of them came to the edge of the jungle. Gongsun Ying pointed to a large pile of materials thrown down by the army, and said: "When the Ao Bao army arrives tonight, you two will pile these materials in the dense forest and import them, and tomorrow when the army of the prince arrives, you will light a fire and burn it for me." Under the cover of the fire, you will quickly retreat to Beigou, and you will not be allowed to engage the army of Gongzi! If you lose a person, I'll ask you! Got it? ”

The two military commanders immediately responded: "Understood." After Zhao Hu responded, he asked in a low voice: "Aren't you going to meet with Gongzi and say a few words?" ”

Gongsun Ying smiled: "I said it." This fire of yours is what I will say to him. He will understand when he sees the fire. ”

It was the same afternoon. Ao Leopard's vanguard army rushed to the ghost ditch. Gongsun Ying had already prepared food and hot water, and as soon as the vanguard of Ao Bao arrived, he personally stood on the side of the road to greet him. The division commander and brigade commander who led the team immediately ordered the whole army to salute! Gongsun Ying loudly stopped the salute and shouted to the sergeants: "You are the heroes of the Qin State!" Enjoy the hero's treatment from now on. Quickly change out of your rags and throw down your weapons. Come with me to the barracks over there, and the hot water will be ready for you, and the food will be ready for you. Go and enjoy! Just go! ”

After a burst of cheers, the sergeants of the 3rd and 10th armies followed the sergeants of the 3rd and 10th armies to the camp to rest.

Gongsun Ying stood on the side of the road, greeting the coming Broken Queen's army. When Li Youwu arrived with the Chinese army, he also accompanied Gongsun Ying, Pang Yan, Zhao Hu and others, standing on the side of the road, and greeted his team with the torches held by the guards.

Ao Bao followed the army at the end and came to the ghost ditch. As soon as he saw Gongsun Martingale and his party, he strode over, walked to the front and back, and after beating his chest and saluting, he reported loudly: "Zuo Shuchang!" The three armies of the Ketou Army did not fail in their mission and successfully blocked the Wei army after a day's journey. Now, on your orders, I have already thrown off the Wei army last night. Now, the three armies of 30,647 people have all come to the ghost ditch. Please give me advice! ”

Gongsun Ying smiled, looked at Ao Leopard, and Li Youwu next to Gao Jing beside Ao Leopard, and said with satisfaction: "You are worthy of being the head of the army!" This also included the Ninth Army next to Takai. From now on, the Ninth Army is the Third Army of the Kotou Army. I didn't have anything to say, just one sentence: You have a good rest, eat and drink well, and set off tomorrow morning at the beginning of the morning and return to Fenyin. ”

The next day, the seventh day of the first month of mid-spring. The first moment of the hour. Ao Bao took the Ketou army and walked into the dense forest trail at the foot of Dongshan Mountain. Gongsun Ying, together with Pang Yan and Zhao Hu, waited for the more than 30,000 Ketou troops to pass, and watched the sergeants of the Third Army and the Tenth Army, under the command of the military officials, throw more than 200,000 troops at the intersection of the dense forest path, like building the Great Wall, piled up in front of the trail into a dam 20 steps wide, 3 steps high, and 900 steps long, and blocked the foot of the east mountain of the south ditch of the ghost ditch to the edge of the salt lake, and blocked it tightly.

Gongzi's army arrived at the ghost ditch at noon. When he arrived, Gongzi Wei saw that the banner of Gongsun Marting, the banner of the Third Army and the Tenth Army of the Qin Army, was fluttering in the wind behind the material embankment. His vanguard was just about to approach the material when he heard a drum beat. In the sound of drums, a fire dragon suddenly ignited, and the material embankment suddenly became a huge fire dragon, blocking the path of Gongzi's advance. The scorching heat wave of the fire dragon, the roasted Wei army sergeants did not dare to move forward, and retreated again and again. After a long sigh, Gongzi shouted at the fire dragon, "Wei Ying! Count you ruthless. We'll see you later! After shouting, Gongzi Wei ordered: Advance from the ghost ditch valley! Quickly join Wei Hu's blocking army!

Gongzi Wei spent another two hours, and it was not until four minutes of the unitary hour that he joined Wei Yi in the north of the ditch. When converging, Wei Yi saw Gongzi Wei walking in front, immediately jumped up, ran to Gongzi Wei, and after saluting, he reported: "General! Xun Ji and I tried our best, but we still couldn't break through the Qin army's Beigou defensive line. Please punish the incompetence of the general! ”

Gongzi grabbed Wei Yi's hand and said in a choked voice: "You and your subordinates are doing a good job!" Even the best sergeants in the world will do it no better than you. I thank you! ”
