Chapter 60: Failure is the Mother of Success

Then Su Yi and the others began to discuss how to deal with the barbarians' method of digging mountains and opening the way, and everyone had different opinions, but none of them could come up with a specific plan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In this process, Su Yi secretly recorded the demeanor, character, and tone of everyone present, and found that most of them were full of courage and wanted to destroy the barbarian project, but there were also a few sane people who refuted each other one by one, believing that they must not attack the superior forces of the barbarians with inferior forces, not to mention that the barbarians still have a good location on the plains at the foot of the mountain.

It was not advisable to take the initiative to attack, but it was not possible to watch the barbarians dig into the mountain, and for a while, the camp was plunged into a fierce debate.

But Su Yi, as a person who has been tested, can see more clearly than others, and thinks in his heart: "I have been here for a quarter of an hour, and I faintly feel that my spiritual power has been consumed, and according to this, I can only stay in the simulated battlefield for three days at most." And since it is a test of secretly crossing Chen Cang, it is impossible for the barbarians to really spend a few months digging the mountain, otherwise this simulated war will not be called a test, but a difficulty. ”

"The purpose of digging a mountain and opening a road is just a pretense to attract me to be wary of this, so that I cannot be alert to other small actions of the barbarians; and then while I am paralyzed, the barbarians cross the Great Yao Mountain from other paths! Whether there is such a 'small path' is the key point of this war!"

Su Yi's thoughts settled in his heart, stopped the fierce discussion of the generals, and said solemnly: "Soldiers, who among you knows the terrain of this Great Yao Mountain well?"

An adjutant general surnamed Zhang stood up and said, "General Hui, the last general has lived here since he was a child, and he is familiar with the terrain of Dayao Mountain. ”

"Okay, Ben will ask you, if the barbarians want to use the strategy of 'secretly crossing Chen Cang' to smuggle across Dayao Mountain, is there a path?" Su Yi asked.

Faced with Su Yi's question, the generals' faces turned pale, some people suddenly realized, and some people lowered their heads and pondered.

And the deputy general Zhang replied: "There is indeed such a sheep intestine trail, about fifteen miles away from our camp. Could it be that the general is guessing that the barbarians followed the method of 'secretly crossing Chen Cang' and carved mountains and opened the road with great fanfare, just to create an illusion, the purpose is to deceive our eyes, and then quietly cross the Dayao Mountain from the sheep intestine path?"

Su Yi smiled and nodded, and said in her heart that this general is really clear-minded, and it can be understood at one point, which can be of great use.

"General, you should also know that the barbarians will get bigger and bigger as their strength increases. Vice General Zhang said, "The sheep intestine trail is rugged and steep, and the woodcutters and spies have a hard time, and the barbarians above the head of ten are even more difficult in this path. Please forgive the last general for bluntly saying that the last general does not think that the 100,000 army of the barbarians will choose this kind of trail to cross the mountain, which is too inefficient. ”

"If you think about it from the perspective of the barbarians, do you think it is more efficient to storm the walled city of our army, or to really dig a mountain and open a road, or to use a little trick to deceive our army, and then take a small path to cross the mountain slowly?" Su Yi shook his head with a smile.

The lieutenant looked awe-inspiring and said yes again and again.

At the end of the military discussion, Su Yi ordered Vice General Zhang to lead the way, and he was going to go to the sheep intestine trail to investigate on the spot; and ordered the generals to stick to the walled city, and they were absolutely not allowed to attack without his order; then Su Yi thought about it, and ordered a deputy general to lead more than a dozen people to stand at the head of the city, and be sure to make a very vigilant posture against the barbarian digging mountain.

Su Yi brought dozens of personal guards and two deputy generals, brought half a day's worth of dry food, and followed Vice General Zhang to the sheep intestine path.

Because of the bumpy mountain road, it took Su Yi two hours to complete the fifteen-mile road, and when she got there, she saw that there was indeed a rugged and steep path, connecting the north and south of Dayao Mountain from end to end, and it was continuously entrenched.

The trail is undulating, overgrown with weeds, and has countless gravel underfoot, making it very difficult to walk.

Su Yi only walked for a cup of tea, and then felt that the soles of his feet hurt and his legs were sore, and he said in his heart: "As long as the human race overcomes it a little, it can adapt to all terrains, but the barbarians are different, the defects of the four hooves and weight are there, and they can't overcome the terrain problem no matter what." However, no matter how difficult it is to take this path, it is no more difficult than to storm our fortified city in the disadvantaged terrain, and the barbarians will definitely choose to use this trail to cross the Dayao Mountain and attack the back of our army. ”

At this time, everyone walked along the trail to a relatively flat mountain.

Su Yi found that this mountainous area was very open, connected with the north-south trail, and could almost accommodate tens of thousands of barbarians, which was very suitable for collective rest.

"If I ambush my troops here, and take advantage of the terrain to make a sudden attack, surrounded on all sides, I will definitely annihilate the barbarians here, and the rest of the barbarians will also be completely deterred, so that they will no longer dare to fight the idea of this path! In this way, my test will surely be successful. Su Yi said excitedly, "Ambush is the most basic Zhengqi division tactic, I don't know if this place was deliberately evolved by the Star Picking Pavilion, or is there really such a place in reality?" ”

Su Yi made up her mind and immediately led everyone back.

While walking, Su Yi thought: "In this test, our army cannot defeat the barbarians in any way except for occupying the geographical advantage, and it is almost impossible to take the initiative to win except for holding the pass; but the barbarians have already resorted to the plan of 'secretly crossing Chencang', intending to smuggle across Dayao Mountain, and our army can only fail if it continues to hold on to the walled city! The best way is to ambush around this mountain area of the trail, and take advantage of the terrain to directly encircle and annihilate the barbarians, so that the barbarians' strategy will fail and pass the test!" Now that I have a rough plan, I should refine the details and make sure that every step is correct. ”

On the way back to the city, Su Yi kept thinking about and refining the details in her heart.

Back in the walled city, it was already afternoon, the army came to report, the barbarians were really ready to move, began to mobilize people and materials, I am afraid that as soon as it gets dark, the barbarians will take advantage of the night to touch the trail and smuggle into Dayao Mountain.

Su Yi decisively took countermeasures, ordering the three lieutenant generals who had followed him to survey the terrain, leading the other ten lieutenant generals and a large number of soldiers to ambush around the clearing, and guiding these lieutenants in every detail to ensure that every detail was not wrong, leaving only four lieutenant generals and more than 3,000 soldiers in the walled city.

Su Yi stood at the head of the city, always monitoring the movements in the barbarian camp at the foot of the mountain.

But at night, with the help of the faint moonlight, Su Yi was stunned to find that the 100,000 barbarian army was divided into two ways, one way to the direction of the path, and the other way, but directly rushed up to the walled city where Su Yi was stationed!

Su Yi's face was shocked, and he secretly said that it was not good in his heart, and hurriedly mobilized the only 3,000 soldiers in the walled city to meet the battle, but in the end, he was outnumbered, not only the 3,000 soldiers were annihilated, the walled city was breached, and even he was beheaded to show the public.

At the moment when Su Yi's soldiers were defeated and died, the scene of the sheep intestine trail flashed in front of him: I saw that the barbarians who had divided their troops all the way entered the trail, arrived at the open space, and sure enough, they gathered here to rest, and waited for the order to be issued before they got up again and continued to move forward.

At this moment, the Terran ambush stood out, cutting off the front and rear roads, the sound of drums and horns and the shouts of the ten thousand armies interfered with the hearing of the barbarians, and frightened the nearly 10,000 barbarians in the open space like frightened birds, scattering and fleeing, and the barbarians kept falling or being knocked down by other barbarians, trampling countless times for a while, and the Terrans took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and nearly 10,000 barbarians were beheaded at a very small price, and won a big victory!

The barbarians who had not yet entered the clearing saw the slaughter in front of them, their faces were bloodless in fright, and they turned around and fled.

There was an even more serious stampede among the barbarians fleeing in the rear, and they no longer dared to fight the idea of this trail in their hearts...... However, Su Yi was dead, the camp had been breached, and the trial still failed.

A voice sounded in Su Yi's mind.

"Fail in the strategic game, sum up the lessons, and challenge again!"

At the same time, Su Yi was in a trance for a while, only to feel that his mind was instantly sent out of this simulated battlefield, and he returned to the top of the mountain where the Star Picking Pavilion was located.

At this moment, there are more people on the top of the mountain than before, obviously they are all here in the future, ready to pick up stars, and everyone was surprised when they saw Su Yi being teleported out of the Star Picking Pavilion.

"Hey, did Su Shiti succeed in picking up stars?"

"So fast! I saw that he had only been in for a quarter of an hour. ”

Among them, an old man who was good at observing words and emotions shook his head and said, "I don't think Su Shichou's face is very good, maybe he failed." ”

"Yes, I saw that Han Leshan failed once and was teleported back, saying that he might have to try three more times, how could Su Shiqiu succeed in one time, it is estimated that he will have to try three or four more times. ”

Su Yi listened to everyone's discussions, and she didn't want to reply, her mind was full of only about the trial.

"I take it for granted, the barbarians are cultivating the plank road and secretly crossing Chencang, there may only be one 'plank road', but there can be more than one 'Chencang'!" Su Yi summed up at high speed in his heart, "The barbarians dug the mountain to open the road, and this act of 'Ming Xiu plank road' alone is enough to attract the vigilance of our army, but the barbarians not only have that trail as a 'Chen Cang' for secret crossing, they can also choose to tentatively attack our army's walled city; ”

Su Yi sighed in her heart for her lack of war experience, but then immediately cheered up, encouraging herself in her heart that failure is the mother of success.

"If I gather a large number of troops in the walled city, and only send a small part of the army to ambush around the mountain, the walled city can be guaranteed, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to behead all the tens of thousands of barbarians who gathered to rest in the mountain area, and I am afraid that they will be counterattacked and lose a large number of soldiers. If the barbarians cross the path and go around to the back of our army's walled city, even if there are heavy troops stationed in the walled city, it will probably be difficult to resist under the enemy's back. ”
