Chapter 678: The Importance of Information Warfare

The three major teams who came out were also notified, so that they could return quickly.

Lou Yang got the news and quickly rushed to Su Shi's side, and before the two of them could say anything about the current situation, Wang Fei had new information delivered there, saying that the forbidden army suddenly set up camp in Zhao Village, and also began to bury the pot in advance.

"Huh?"

This sudden change made Su Shi a little incomprehensible for a while.

Ji Zhu is the same, he thought that the forbidden army behind him suddenly accelerated, this is going to war, but now the army is stopped and camped, and what does it mean to cook in advance?

It's still about two hours before it gets completely dark.

In such a short period of time, if the forbidden army pursues with all its might, it will shorten the distance between the two sides. Even faster, you can catch up with them in the middle of the night, and... And then can you still start a war in the middle of the night?

At this time, people generally suffer from night blindness due to nutritional reasons, and everyone tries to avoid fierce battles in the middle of the night unless they have to.

"Isn't it a little early to cook at this time?" Ji Zhu couldn't figure it out, so he asked questions.

"It was this sentence that instantly gave Su Shi a sense of empowerment, and at that moment his eyes lit up, as if he had caught something. Then quickly unfold the map and look closely.

Su Shi obviously thought of something, Ji Zhu didn't dare to disturb, and just stood on the side. After about half a cup of tea, I saw that Su Shi's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and then he laughed. "Yes, what General Ji said is very correct, it is indeed a little early to have dinner at this time, they should have a plan, right?"

"Do they want to fight at night? If so, that's a good thing." Ji Zhu didn't know why, but what he knew was that the Su family army was not short of nutrition, and that night blindness did not exist in them, if it was really a night battle, their advantage would expand a lot.

"No, no, no!" Su Shi shook his head, "Although Zhao Yunrang and Wang Deyong are of average ability, they will not be so stupid, they will think of starting a war in the middle of the night, they should be preparing to rush late at night and outflank us."

In a word.

Although Su Shi didn't know the specific plan of the forbidden army, he did have a general judgment through Wang Fei's report.

Ji Zhu can become the head of the black horse, and everyone is convinced, and his own ability is still very strong. Now with Su Shi's complete trust and a platform to exert his ability, his own tactical literacy is constantly improving. Just Su Shi's words, he also figured out some questions.

"Young Marshal, are you saying that the forbidden army is going to divide its troops?"

"Yes, they should be preparing for the division of troops." Su Shi said firmly.

As soon as he heard that the forbidden army was going to divide his troops, Ji Zhu's face immediately had a smile.

In the past few days, Ji Zhu can be said to have not eaten well and slept well. He was afraid that the Forbidden Army would suddenly speed up and chase after him.

The first, second, and third teams were not around, and Ji Zhu, who was almost alone, undertook the security of the entire army, which could not be missed at all.

In order to reduce this pressure, Jiju thought about attacking the camp. But there are only 800 black horsemen around him, but the other party is a full 40,000 forbidden army, with this bit of men and horses, it is almost impossible to enter the camp of the forbidden army.

And once the attack fails and provokes the 40,000 forbidden troops, who knows if they will take advantage of the situation to kill?

If this is the case, he will be tantamount to incurring trouble on the army and allowing the decisive battle to break out one step earlier. In order to avoid such a thing, Ji Zhu did not dare to act rashly, and spent every day in trepidation.

Now, of course, he was overjoyed to learn that the 40,000 forbidden army was going to divide his troops.

Once the forbidden army is not together, it is equivalent to giving him the possibility of breaking through one by one, which makes him see the opportunity and hope of defeating the enemy.

Cooking in advance is to prepare for military operations. Su Shi analyzed that the forbidden army should make some moves, but he couldn't see through what he was going to do now.

But it doesn't matter, since the enemy wants to move, of course he must move, and prepare in advance, so that when the opportunity comes, he will be firmly seized.

"Notify me and we'll let it go ahead of time

Prepare food, and let the army rest well, I'm afraid there will be something to do tonight." Su Shi is ready to respond to all changes with the same, as long as the forbidden army is divided, he will give the other party a ruthless blow.

Zhao Village.

The scouts of the Song army outside the village suddenly increased, and a cavalry scout team appeared almost two or three miles apart, and they intended to use this move to force the scouts sent by Su Shi to not get close.

Not only that, when making rice, Wang Decheng also ordered to eat warm rice as much as possible, that is, no fire will be raised, so that unless the distance is very close, otherwise, they can't even see the fireworks they raise, so that no one is afraid that someone will find out about their special actions.

Unbeknownst to them, just beside Zhao Village, there was a squadron of Flying Eagles watching their every move, and had already reported the situation to Su Shi in a way they couldn't have imagined.

The role of intelligence in warfare was not very important in ancient times. That is to say, in later generations, after the development of communications, whoever has the intelligence will be equivalent to gaining the first opportunity and grasping the initiative.

Unable to see the importance of intelligence, Wang Decheng, who is extremely arrogant, is destined to pay the price for his carelessness.

The 40,000 forbidden soldiers cooked in advance, and after eating, they began to fall asleep. Until it was completely dark, I slept for nearly three hours, and at eight o'clock in the middle of the night, when it was already pitch black outside, there was movement in Zhao Village.

Wang Decheng was very cautious, the army did not even light the torches, and the sparkling fires became the illumination of the leading army, and then the 25,000 forbidden troops drove out, under the leadership of Wang Decheng, and went straight to the direction of Qingfeng County.

Considering that he was the main force and had to engage the Su family army first, Wang Deyong took away a large number of soldiers, leaving only 15,000 people for Zhao Yun to use with Wang Deyong. And all of this was clearly seen by Wang Fei's team with night vision devices.

It was so clear that they even counted how many troops they sent, and then reported it to Su Shi to know.

The exact information was sent, and Su Shi also slept and just woke up. But after knowing the latest battle report, the map was placed in front of him again, and after borrowing a table lamp to see it, Su Shi slammed his fist on the table and said, "What a big courage, you still want to play a surprise game with me."

According to the situation reported by Wang Fei, the 40,000 forbidden army is indeed divided, and looking at the route of their march, it is likely that the target is Qingfeng City in front of them.

They wanted to surprise themselves when they passed outside the city.

If Su Shi didn't get the information, and really let things develop like this, I was afraid that he would really fall into the trap of the other party.

Along the way, although there were some bumps, it was still too smooth.

Smoothly to the point that whenever passing by the Great Song City, the city gate was closed, and no one dared to come out to stop Su Shi, on the contrary, he was afraid that the Su army would enter the city.

This was the case once or twice, and after a long time, it was inevitable that the Su family army would also become proud and began to ignore the threat that the city might pose to them.

Fortunately, the Flying Eagle squadron is powerful.

The Flying Eagle squadron, which spent a lot of money on training and invested huge financial resources, delivered a perfect answer at a critical time.

That is, knowing the purpose of the forbidden army, it was time for Su Shi to counterattack.

At the sound of the order, the originally silent camp became lively.

Eight hundred black horsemen began to gather, and two thousand guards also began to gather, not only that, but Lu Siqiao and Ye Lengchan also ran over to join in the fun.

These two are the masters of the women who do not let the eyebrows, but for their safety, Su Shi has not given them a chance to perform. This time late at night, it was obvious that there was going to be an action, and the two women couldn't sit still, so they both ran to Su Shi's camp and asked to fight.

"Okay, then I'll give you a chance to perform. But you must remember that all actions must be under command, and if anyone dares to disobey the order, he will be deprived of all possibility of going to war in the future."

"Okay, we promise."

Finally ready to fight, both girls excitedly agreed.

Su Feiyang's letter also came, but Su Shi was no matter what

He didn't want his father to be in danger, so he let his father stay on the grounds that the base camp also needed safety.

At the same time, there was also a 500 guard army left, which handed over the command to Su Feiyang.

More than 10,000 family members are here, and Su Shi only left 500 guards, which is indeed a little less.

If you take advantage of the time when you go out, once someone kills here, I am afraid that these 500 people will not be able to protect more than 10,000 people at all.

It's just that Su Shi has no choice, the first and second teams are still returning, and they can't return until near dawn, and he has this usable soldier in his hand, if there are too many people left, it will not be able to complete the purpose of the surprise attack on Zhao Village.

It was precisely because of the lack of manpower that Lu Siqiao and Ye Lengchan asked for instructions to fight, and he agreed.

Left five hundred soldiers, Su Shi took eight hundred black horsemen, one thousand five hundred guards and one hundred first-class guards into battle, and in the dark night, he went straight to Zhao Village, which was forty miles away behind him.

Zhao Village.

Wang Decheng left with the main force of the army.

Although there are still 15,000 forbidden troops in their hands, which is also a lot of strength, whether it is Zhao Yunrang or Wang Deyong, they are a little worried.

So late at night that they lay down again and fell asleep.

When he was a child, Su Jiajun appeared on the outskirts of Zhao Village at a very fast speed, completely ignoring the strength of his feet.

took out the walkie-talkie and got in touch with Wang Fei, and learned that an hour ago, the forbidden army was divided, and now there are only 15,000 forbidden troops in Zhao Village.

"Young marshal, let's fight." Ji Zhu has long wanted to clean up this group of forbidden troops, and it is they who have caused him to eat and sleep poorly these days.

"Ready to do in ten minutes." Su Shi nodded heavily, then looked at Lu Siqiao, Ye Lengchan, Meng Youde, and the one hundred first-class guards and said, "The task is entrusted to you, you must kill all the outposts of the forbidden army."
