Xiao Mu showed a satisfied look, Ye Hengqiu's reaction was within his expectations, and even he looked at the confident light that faintly flashed in Ye Hengqiu's eyes with some expectation and appreciation. He had long known that Ye Hengqiu would not be content to wait for the Northern Border Army of Fengjian North to be surrounded on both sides, and before that, he would definitely make some big noise. Xiao Mu understood that although this young man didn't know what to say, there was an inviolable arrogance in his heart.

For some reason, Xiao Mu always forgot that Ye Hengqiu was only a young man in his twenties, as if discussing with a peer with deep experience, there were already faint signs of Ye Hengqiu as the leader in the coalition army.

On the contrary, Suo Pingzhang raised his eyebrows with some surprise and asked, "How is this an opportunity? Ye Xiaowang wants to quietly follow him and attack the Yunhai Iron Cavalry on both sides of the Shuozhou Army?"

"It's a good idea. Ye Hengqiu still smiled faintly.

"It's a pity that if we follow behind the Yunhai Iron Cavalry, Cloud City will definitely find out, and then we will be caught in the Yunhai Iron Cavalry, and the situation will be very bad. Suo Pingzhang analyzed.

Ye Hengqiu nodded and said, "Yes, Wei Zhongjue will not let us go north, so he will definitely set up troops to stop us." If Wei Zhongjue expected us to go north, the smart thing to do was to pretend not to know, let us go through Cloud City, and then send troops to attack our army in the back. ”

Suo Pingzhang was stunned, it turned out that Ye Hengqiu had already thought about it, and he even figured out Wei Zhongjue's reaction. He himself thought that what Ye Hengqiu said was reasonable, so he stopped talking and listened to Ye Hengqiu's further analysis.

"Since Wei Zhongjue deliberately let us bypass Cloud City, we might as well take care of it. We have a wooden shield car, and although the power of the Yunhai Iron Rider is great, it is difficult to defeat us in a short time. And at the moment of the great enemy in the north, Wei Zhongjue must kill with one blow, and he should send the main force to meet it. In this case, as soon as we passed through Yunzhong City, our troops divided into two routes, one pretending to pursue the Yunhai Iron Cavalry, advancing in a wooden shield car formation, in order to temporarily resist the Yunhai Iron Cavalry who was returning to kill, and the other road set up an ambush along the road, killing Wei Zhongjue by surprise. ”

After listening to Ye Hengqiu's words, Xiao Mu nodded: "This method is feasible, Wei Zhongjue can either fortify under the city to prevent us from bypassing, or he can only wait for us to pursue after we cross the city." If he doesn't let us go north, we will go back, and there will be no loss to us. ”

Suo Pingzhang interjected again: "Then what if Yunzhou lets us go first, but sets up an ambush in the north of Yunzhong City, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net?"

As soon as the words came out, Xiao Mu fell into contemplation again, but Ye Hengqiu said with a straight face: "It's not impossible, but we also have scouts to monitor the movements in Yunzhou at any time, and it is not easy for Wei Zhongjue to completely hide it from us." Moreover, if he leaves the city, the defenders of the city will be empty of strength, and we will be given an opportunity to take advantage of it, and if we detect it, the consequences will be disastrous for them. In my guess, he wouldn't take that risk. If it's a gamble, I'm willing to bet on it. ”

Xiao Mu and Suo Pingzhang were silent for a moment, and then Suo Pingzhang smiled again: "This is a big gamble. Ye Xiaowang was really resolute and resolute in his use of soldiers, and he sought victory in danger. ”

"Since ancient times, the tricks of defeating the enemy have all come from danger. Ye Hengqiu said indifferently.

Xiao Mu touched his beard and said, "Then it's good to gamble." Then Ye Hengqiu and Xiao Mu both looked at Suo Pingzhang, and Suo Pingzhang smiled: "Since Prince Chengji and Prince Ye Xiao have no opinion, Suo should obey it." ”

Ye Hengqiu nodded, and after discussing the details of the arrangement with everyone, Xiao Mu and Suo Pingzhang were about to retire. Ye Hengqiu suddenly called Suo Pingzhang: "General Suo stays." ”

Xiao Mu looked at the two of them, his face was puzzled, but he didn't ask much, and took Zheng Fang to go by himself. Suo Pingzhang was also confused, and asked with a smile: "What else does Little Prince Ye have to order?"

"This matter is very important, and Prince Xiao's concerns before are also reasonable. After General Suo goes out, don't tell your subordinates about today's arrangement. ”

Suo Pingzhang frowned, but still squeezed out a smile, and asked: "If you don't tell your subordinates, how do they know about the little prince's plan to lure the enemy and ambush him? If the little prince's fighter plane is delayed, Suo Mou can't afford it!" he laughed to himself as he spoke.

Ye Hengqiu didn't smile, he looked at Suo Pingzhang with his usual plain gaze, and said: "If the whole army goes north, not only will the empty south be left for the other party to take advantage of, but it will also be easy for the other party to be suspicious. Therefore, I hope that General Suo can stay behind and stay in the south for us, and can also be used as a new force to turn the tide of the war at a critical moment. ”

Suo Pingzhang listened, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He stared at those small eyes and looked at Ye Hengqiu. Ye Hengqiu's black eyes were always as calm as water, without any waves, and he quietly watched Suo Pingzhang.

After a long time, Suo Pingzhang finally smiled and said, "Since Ye Xiaowang has ordered so, Suo Mou will obey his orders." At that time, I will lead the soldiers of Shajiang City and wait here for the triumph of Ye Xiaowangye. With that, he walked out without looking back.

Two days later, the scouts of the vanguard received information that the 30,000 soldiers led by Feng Jianbei had quickly broken through the northernmost city of Yunzhou and came all the way to Yunzhong City. There was also a quick response from Cloudsdale. As Ye Hengqiu and Xiao Mu guessed, the 20,000 Yunhai Iron Horsemen rode towards the north.

Ye Hengqiu and Xiao Mu divided the two lines of soldiers, and detoured from both sides of Yunzhong City to the north side of Yunzhong City respectively, and only Suo Pingzhang led more than 10,000 soldiers of Shajiang City to stay in the south.

Tens of thousands of soldiers passed quietly from a few miles from Cloudsdale. Yunzhou is flat, there are few jungles, it is difficult to hide people's eyes, Ye Hengqiu deliberately chose to set off in the early morning, it is the most sleepy time for the defenders, and the sky is dark, and the eyes cannot be far away. Since he wanted to lure Wei Zhongjue into attacking, he naturally had to plan like this.

Wei Zhongjue came quickly and alertly, Ye Hengqiu was not sure, when he led the army forward, he kept looking at the direction of Cloud City. It's just that until tens of thousands of people all bypassed through Cloud City, and until Ye Hengqiu and Xiao Mu's two armies converged north of Cloud City, there was still no movement in the city.

"Lord Ye doesn't trust General Suo?" Taking advantage of this quiet gap, Xiao Mu rode close to Ye Hengqiu and asked.

Ye Hengqiu said lightly: "Why did Prince Xiao say this?"

Xiao Mu habitually touched his stubble and said, "Otherwise, why would the little prince order all the soldiers of Shajiang City to stay in the camp, neither retreat nor accompany him?"

"It is inevitable that the whole army will leave a gap in the north, and there are people left behind, which can always be used as a back road. ”

Xiao Mu continued: "It's just that the little prince left General Suo's people in the south, if Wei Zhongjue ignores us and goes north and sends troops to attack General Suo, the situation is probably dangerous." ”

"Then we'll attack them back, and we can still take them by surprise. Ye Hengqiu said without thinking.

Xiao Mu was stunned for a moment and asked, "So this is also Ye Xiao Wangye's design, Ye Xiao Wang Ye not only doesn't trust General Suo, but also intends to leave General Suo in the south as bait?"

Ye Hengqiu smiled and asked, "What does Lord Xiao think?"

Xiao Mu looked at Ye Hengqiu's meaningful smile, and did not answer, as if he was thinking deeply.

The two proceeded as previously planned, Ye Hengqiu led the army to lure the enemy, and Xiao Mu set up an ambush along the road. By the time Xiao Mu's men and horses were hidden in the shadows of the woods, Ye Hengqiu's team had already walked almost and could not see their figures, leaving only a faint cloud of smoke and dust. Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves coming from the direction they were coming.

More than ten miles to the south, Suo Pingzhang looked at the majestic city not far away, and gently tapped the reins of the horse with his fingers. The face is silent.
