Chapter 142: The Empty City Plan
"That's too bold, this group of people just don't owe a beating! Why don't you let me lead the troops and go to their city for three days and three nights, and let them see what war is!"
Someone next to the general took the initiative to invite Ying, wanting to fight, his expression was very impassioned, and he was obviously stimulated by Gu Ci's appearance.
In stark contrast to him, the leading general, when he first listened to the vanguard, his face appeared obviously gloomy, but later, it all became solemn.
Something is wrong, something is really wrong! This really didn't look like an ordinary garrison general would do, especially when there were not enough soldiers in the city.
"What are you waiting for? In the face of such people, they should be eliminated quickly."
The man who took the initiative to ask for help earlier didn't understand why the general was not only not angry, but also did not respond to his words, and urged very dissatisfied.
The general glanced at him faintly, his eyes full of mockery and contempt, and asked coldly, "Hesitation? If you think it's okay, then you go, and if you don't come back alive, you're out of luck."
This general is still very prestigious in the army, and as soon as he said these half-yin and yang, half-sincere words just now, the person who took the initiative to ask for Ying before silently shut up, knowing that he was abrupt.
"Is he wearing armor?" The general asked again.
The vanguard couldn't help but tremble, he shook his head, and replied tremblingly, "No."
After a few moments of thought, a very terrifying possibility sprouted in his mind.
"Let's not talk about it for the time being, what the other party is doing to temporarily change generals, it's this provocative behavior now, which is clearly trying to provoke us."
The general's expression was solemn, and he said word by word, and his tone gradually became cold, "They must have some arrangements in the city. If we are too reckless, there is a good chance that we will never return."
As soon as these words came out, many people present shuddered violently.
If the other party really plans to do this, then they can easily move troops, and it is very likely that they will bring irreparable huge losses to their side!
It's good that they noticed it early!
Some people felt that the general's worries might be unnecessary, and they couldn't help but ask, "However, didn't the information we gathered before say that the troops in the city were already very insufficient?"
"That's why they do it, and we can't tell the truth."
The general closed his eyes, made a decision, and said to the vanguard, "You pass it on, let people re-examine the current strength and situation in the city, and report it to me as soon as possible."
"That's not right, isn't it?"
"Will it take too long? It will take at least two days!"
As soon as this sentence came out, many people immediately spoke out against it.
Now that they were in the city, they were asked to wait two more days before they started, and they felt a little difficult to accept for a while.
The general's eyes were cold, and he said sharply: "It's just two more days to wait, if we lose too many men and horses because of our adventure, no one can afford to take this responsibility!"
After a pause, he continued, "Besides, it's only two days, so what about giving them, can they still turn the sky upside down?"
Indeed it is!
The general's words convinced everyone, and a group of people nodded.
The general continued to say to the vanguards, "Send the order to the army, and garrison it three miles outside the city, not too close to the golden city, lest you be unprepared for a sneak attack."
"Yes!"
The vanguard responded and hurried to deliver the news.
In front of the city, witnessing the retreat of the enemy army, Gu Ci breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally put his mind at ease, and couldn't help but feel wonderful.
It works, Su Qin's strategy is really useful, and the other party really took the initiative to retreat!
After cleaning up, Gu Ci returned to the city and went to find Su Qin as soon as possible.
After all, Su Qin is a woman, even if she opens a tent alone, it is not very safe in the barracks, after all, it is not possible to guarantee so many soldiers
Will there be one of them who has two hearts?
Coupled with Gu Ci's careful thinking that he was unwilling to declare, Su Qin lived directly in Gu Ci's tent. Although there is no cross-boundary behavior between the two, they are together every day, and Gu Ci can feel that the relationship between the two is gradually heating up.
Su Qin fiddled with her herbs, and for convenience, Gu Ci specially freed up a certain area in the tent for her to do things.
However, Su Qin was obviously a little absent-minded today, fiddling with the things in front of him with a puffed mouth, his eyes moving around, but he didn't put it on the herbs.
"What are you thinking, so absent-minded?" Gu Ci came to Su Qin's side and asked in a low voice.
"Oops!"
Su Qin was startled, turned around, and couldn't help but reach out and hammer him a few times after seeing that it was Gu Ci, and complained coquettishly: "Gu Ci, why did you suddenly appear from behind me, scared me to death!"
Gu Ci was made to cry and laugh by Su Qin's wicked accusation first, and said helplessly: "I didn't, I specially called you after I entered the tent, who knows that you didn't notice at all."
Later, when I talk to you, you are startled again.
The last half of the sentence Gu Ci did not speak, but the meaning of the words was clear to Su Qin.
"Ahem......
Su Qin coughed dryly, naturally not admitting that he was worried about Gu Ci's safety on the battlefield.
The strategy of the empty city plan is still a little too risky, if the other party ventures a little or sees through their true purpose, Gu Ci will be the most dangerous person.
Fortunately, Gu Ci came back safely.
"Why are you covered in wind and sand, it's too dirty, hurry up and take a bath......" Su Qin frowned, looking very disgusted with Gu Ci, and waved his hand to expel Gu Ci to take a bath.
Gu Ci already knew Su Qin's hard-mouthed and soft-hearted personality very well, and probably guessed that she should be so absent-minded for herself, so she couldn't help but feel ironed for a while, and obediently took a bath.
After taking a shower and getting dressed, Gu Ci returned to the tent, where Su Qin was still sitting in place, fiddling with those herbs.
The little woman's hands flew over, quickly sorting out the medicinal herbs in her hands.
Looking at Su Qin's demeanor now, he should have put his mind at ease, and he didn't have the appearance of wandering in the world before.
Gu Ci couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive when he looked at it, and leaned over and complained in a low voice: "Why are you still fiddling with these herbs, your husband has returned from the battlefield safely, is it possible that you have nothing to say?"
Well?
Su Qin glanced at Gu Ci with the eyes of a kindergarten child, and felt a little incredulous.
This man...... How is it getting more and more naïve.
This kind of thing is asked to praise her, is it the kindergarten children?
