In order to adjust his somewhat flustered train of thought, Li Youwu looked at Da Shangzao without blinking, and coughed before returning: "Da Shangzao——! If you are pleased with me, you will hand over the command of the 70,000 army to me. After a day and a half of forced marching, I could reach Heyang, which was one hundred and eighty miles away, and rest for half a day. On the third day, he launched an attack, and adopted a rotational tactic, attacking non-stop for twelve hours, and took Heyang on the fifth day. Immediately, the task of cleaning up the remnants of the enemy in Heyang was handed over to General Pang. The army withdrew from the city to rest. When the Son of Heaven is on, he will leave Heyang, and on the evening of the sixth day, he can rush to Wolongling, which is one hundred and twenty miles away from Heyang. On the morning of the seventh day, the ambush was completed. ”

Gongsun Ying didn't wait for Li Youwu's words to settle down, and then asked, "How much do you plan to lose in the battle of Heyang?" ”

Li Youwu immediately replied: "If you go to lì, it will be 7,000, and if you don't follow it, it will be 20,000." Because Heyang has 40,000 of the most elite defenders in Hexi after all. The guard general is still Wei Hu's younger brother Wei Bao. ”

"Hmm." After Gongsun Yan snorted, he looked at Li Youwu and smiled faintly, and said to Li Youwu earnestly: "I know that you really want to fight a battle independently to confirm your ability; So, I'm ready to give you this opportunity, and I hope you can take advantage of it. Your battle is at stake for your future in the army. Can you replace Ao Leopard, this is your chance. ”

Li Youwu straightened his chest and replied in a loud voice full of joy: "Yes." Great Manufacturing! You won't be disappointed. ”

Gongsun Ying waved his hand and said with a little sadness: "I hope you take care of yourself, I don't want to lose another apprentice." Your appointment, I will announce at tomorrow's meeting. You'll set off the day after tomorrow. It's up to me to contain Wei Hu and then lead him to Wolongling. ”

Day 3. Li Youwu took the position of acting as a general, led the 70,000 troops, and drove to the army with great fanfare. The Qin army was really trustworthy, and sent someone to send a letter to the Wei army camp, telling Wei Hu: The Qin army went to attack Heyang. The battalion left only Gongsun Ying with the head army of three armies, waiting for a decisive battle with the Wei army. The commander of the Wei army, Gongzi Wei, was also in the camp of the Qin army.

Li Youwu led the army, using the standard marching speed, deliberately detoured five miles, walked demonstratively in front of the Wei army camp, and only after walking to a place that was invisible to the Wei army camp did he order a rapid march! The Qin army has been trained hard to march quickly, and it is called a rapid march only after traveling 120 miles a day, which is 40 miles more than the 80 miles of the Wei army, so it is not difficult to rush to Heyang 180 miles away in a day and a half. Li Youwu post road to the periphery of Heyang, and Pang Ji and Zhao Hu converged, and held a military meeting when the 120,000 army rested. At the meeting, 13 military commanders and 13 adjutant generals experienced Li Youwu's command art for the first time.

Li Youwu, who presided over the meeting, looked at the twenty-sixth general, and felt a great sense of accomplishment in his heart, under the premise of feeling very good, he did not have any stage fright, he naturally announced his orders directly, and arranged siege tasks for one army after another with no room for negotiation at all. After the task was arranged, he opened his mouth and asked, "General Ren!" ”

Ren Gu and his lieutenant general Ying Shi immediately rose up, and stood up from their seats to reach: "The Fourth Army is here." Please ask the manager! ”

Li Youwu asked with a calm face: "Your Fourth Army is the army that will launch the first round of attacks tomorrow. Tell us about your plans? In particular, siege tactics and reasonable battle damage in two hours? ”

Ren Gumao straightened his chest and replied loudly: "Back to the boss!" Because our army of 120,000 troops drove to the city of Heyang. The 40,000 defenders of the Wei army have been fully prepared, and it is impossible to use the method of sneak attack; Therefore, our army planned to shoot from the archers in cover, and send another division to bluff with a long ladder, and the main force and the baggage army together would build two dirt roads on their backs, and then build two upper passages for the attacking army to attack the city, which would be victory. Our reasonable battle losses are a thousand. However, our army did not have enough manpower, so we could only build two passages in two hours. ”

After Li Youwu heard this, he pressed his hand calmly on his face and said, "You sit down." I think the Fifth Army, which is besieging the city at the same time as you, thinks the same way as you. Isn't it? ”

As soon as the commander of the Fifth Army heard that Li Youwu was really considerate, he immediately stood up with his deputy general Ma Xiao and returned with his seat: "Yes." Manager! But we have a request, I don't know if to say it or not? ”

Li Youwu saw that this winning basket was still very good at being a person, so he smiled and said: "This is a military meeting, you can talk about anything." ”

As soon as Ying Basket heard this, he immediately said: "I heard General Pang say: Before you set off, General Pang ordered General Pang to bring 30,000 people from Yuanli City of the Qin Army. If so, can we and the Fourth Army transfer 15,000 each to speed up the construction of the dirt road? Although the city wall of Heyang is not high, after all, it is necessary to build two soil slopes that are three zhang high, twenty zhang long and one zhang wide, close to 10,000 people, and completed in two hours, which is still a bit tight. As soon as the day dawns, the Wei army will discover our fortifications, and our casualties will increase; Therefore, we believe that we can minimize battle losses by starting early and making more use of the cover of the night. ”

After Li Youwu finished, he was very satisfied with the construction of the winning basket, and immediately accepted it, and said: "I accept your construction." Modify my plan at the same time. When the time of the attack is advanced, I will give you two more troops, and each army will transfer 15,000 people. Your original siege mission has been cancelled, and you are responsible for building four siege passages on the west and north walls of the city. General Huang and General Li of the Eleventh Army! ”

Huang Shuang, the commander of the Eleventh Army, and Li Ge, the deputy general, immediately left the table and stood up, and returned with their chests straight: "The Eleventh Army is here." Please give the boss the order! ”

Li Youwu directly ordered: "Your original second round of attack missions will be canceled, and the four divisions of your army will bluff the siege at the four gates, mainly to contain the attention of the Wei army, and cover the fourth army and the fifth army!" ”

Huang Shuang was a warmonger, and immediately replied loudly and asked, "Yes." Manager! But what if we attack the city at once? Can we go from a feint to a main attack? In this way, there is no need to dig into the soil. ”

After Li Youwu heard this, he suddenly burst out laughing, and pointed at Huang Shuang while laughing and said, "Fortunately, it's me." If you are a small-minded manager, if you ask this, isn't it saying that the manager is not as good as you? Aren't you bold? Why did your face change? General Huang! Don't worry, I love your candour. Yes. I promise you. As long as you attack the wall, you are the main attacker. I will immediately transfer three armies to your command and take Heyang. ”

Huang Shuang immediately jumped up happily and replied, "Yes." Manager! ”
