Chapter 61 - The Grain Shortage Plan
After Lu Deng said this, Li Fu and Qian Rong in front of him already showed very serious and slightly excited expressions on their faces, maybe the strategy they originally used at this time may still be a very correct choice. Li Fu and Qian Rong have also strengthened their beliefs in their hearts, and they will continue to follow this path, plus through such means to win the support of these four very talented and talented young people in front of them, their big things will be just around the corner.
However, now Qian Rong has another bold idea in his heart, and he doesn't know whether the question he thinks is correct or not. So, even though the situation has become what it is now, the overall strategy is basically in their own hands. Thinking of this, Qian Rong stood up and said slowly: "Maybe at this time, the real strength we can grasp is only this part of the 50,000 troops in our hands. It is unlikely that there will be an army within the Qi State itself to support us in continuing the battle here, after all, they still need to fight against the potential threat of the feudal state. Therefore, we not only need to dispatch surprise troops, but also need to grasp the intelligence of the feudal army that is now on this Xuanling Continent. Therefore, I suggest that a few capable spies be sent to the vicinity of the feudal camp in the north and east to obtain the most important information. But we haven't found anyone who can help us, and now that you're here, it's a blessing for us. β
"Mr. Qian is right, and I hope you can help us with this. After all, there are too few people around us who can be trusted now, and you are people with very talented talents, so you can discuss with each other now, and we won't blame you if you choose to refuse," Qian Rong's suggestion was also agreed by Li Fu. However, the meaning of what they are saying now is very clear, that is, they hope that Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng will help them and work together to do what they can in this matter, to put it bluntly, they want Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng to go to the Fengguo camp to listen to the news. Although Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo, and Lu Deng did not complete the task as secret agents, of course, they did not intend to refuse now.
The four of them discussed with each other for a while, and Gao Hanyue stood up and said in a very serious tone: "Since the general can't send out some of the spies to help you get a lot of help now, then what we need to know now is the secret in the current feudal military camp. Although we have never done such a thing, we are still willing to try, I wonder if the general will give us such a chance?"
Shi Lanbo, Lu Deng, and Sun Hao also nodded in agreement, they just didn't have anything to do now, and now at this time, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, went to Checheng and didn't have any news back. Now they want to accomplish the task, but there is nothing else to do. Li Fu and Qian Rong both had deep smiles on their faces, if this was really the case, their big event would really be just around the corner.
Li Fu smiled and said: "We don't need to worry about anything, I will send the best personnel to support you, maybe although you don't have such experience now." But it doesn't matter, after all, you are some of my father's favorite young people. Naturally, I'm not going to let you talented people out. Of course, if you're in danger, you can just come back here. At that time, we continued to think of other ways, maybe there were other ways."
Now that the words have been spoken, the four people in front of them, Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo, and Lu Deng, stood up slowly, bowed down and said, "Since the general has such an order, how can we refuse? β
Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng left, and only Li Fu and Qian Rong were left in this big tent of the Chinese army. Li Fu asked the strategist beside him with some concern: "I don't know, sir, what do you mean by what you said before, what are the four young people going to do?"
Qian Rong smiled slightly, an elusive smile appeared on his face, "Maybe my guess is not necessarily accurate, but I think it is indeed the most likely thing." Didn't these four young men go to Checheng with two other companions?Do you think it's too risky for you to go to Checheng like this when a civil war might break out within this Xuanling Continent at any time? If they don't succeed, they may really be at great risk, and they may even be in danger of their lives. But why did they choose to go there at this time? It was only after thinking about this that I felt more and more that the situation was not simple, and there were probably many things that we hadn't thought about."
Li Fu, who didn't care too much about what happened without being reminded, suddenly felt that the situation was not as simple as he imagined. He turned around, stood up slowly, and looked intently at the backs of Xia Liuli, Sun Hao, Shi Lanbo and Lu Deng, who had already walked out of the camp gate. He suddenly said faintly: "Maybe now, the strength we have is not enough for us to understand this, in this case, we still choose to believe in them." However," a deep smile suddenly appeared on Li Fu's face, "In that case, why don't we leave one hand to solve the current matter?"
Qian Rong also laughed in the same way, "This is exactly what the humble position means, since the general already has such a plan in mind, why don't we continue to move forward according to the plan we originally discussed? If it can really be realized, we don't need to rely on the strength of others to complete this matter." Isn't that a good thing to kill two birds with one stone?"
"Those who know me, Mr. Qian too!" "The general has won the award." β
The former battalion of the Qi State dispatched an elite cavalry force of 5,000 people overnight, and their goal was to directly insert the feudal army stationed on the other side of the northern decisive place in a short split second to launch an attack. Due to the location where the feudal army is stationed, the location on the Demon Spirit Continent is more north-oriented than the Qi army. It was precisely this most crucial thing that they decided to send this army to penetrate horizontally and directly into the past, striving to get the most out of it at the very beginning.
The general who led this army was named Chen Yi, and he was a general who had been following Li Fu as Li Fu's confidant, and he was also one of Li Fu's most trusted generals. In the hands of Li Fu, a commander with a strong desire to rule, he can independently control the front army of 15,000 people, which shows that Chen Yi is an absolute confidant in Li Fu's heart.
Chen Yi's dispatch this time was also personally ordered by Li Fu, and the five thousand elite cavalry carefully selected from the front army led by him directly left the Northern Decisive Land and came here. Perhaps now he could not understand the ultimate meaning of Li Fu's dispatch of this army in the most subtle place. However, as one of his most loyal subordinates, he has long been accustomed to listening to the advice of his superiors. Not to mention, Li Fu is the person he supports and trusts the most. So, even if he didn't know too much what Li Fu and his staff Qian Rong were thinking about now, Chen Yi did not have the slightest doubt or hesitation, and as soon as he accepted this order, he immediately ordered the army to set off.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, Chen Yi led this army to the south of the Northern Decisive Land overnight, according to the news they passed back some time ago. To the south of this northern duel is a mountainous range, and in the middle of these two mountains there is this very narrow passage. That passage was originally the path that these hunters and merchants walked, connecting the city with the southernmost coast of the Xuanling Continent. Now, the passage has been ruthlessly broken in place, and an army has been dispatched through the city to block the passage back and forth. It was very inconvenient for the people around them to go back and forth, and the people had to take a detour because they didn't know what was going on in the mountains. However, some discerning people have already said the possibility of this, and this passage in this mountain range is mainly to provide convenience for the feudal army on the Demon Spirit Continent, which has only recently come here, to provide convenience for transporting grain and grass.
It was on the basis of this news that Chen Yi led the army all the way away, and according to the meager information they knew, the news was that there were not many feudal garrisons in this trail, and there were only a few thousand. Moreover, these thousands of men were only guarding both sides of this passage, which was very conducive to their cavalry advance, and as long as the soldiers were fast, they should not have any difficulty in occupying this passage.
"The whole army, speed up the march! Kill a feudal soldier, you will be rewarded with one tael of silver! Kill the main general of the enemy army, the reward will be 1,000 taels, and the officer will be promoted by one rank!" In the night, Chen Yi's order reached the ears of every soldier. There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and the courage of the soldiers to fight has been directly stimulated, and they are now a little impatient for this.
