"Option 1: Attack Yumen Pass head-on, raise the military prestige of the border army, reward 30,000 bloody troops, and equip ten times the grain and grass."

"Option 2: Sneak attack to take Yumen Pass, reduce casualties, reward the Eight Banners Army with 30,000, and equip ten times the grain and grass."

Listening to the voice in his head, Su Mo hesitated.

Both options are given the same number of people and the same amount of food and grass.

30,000 troops, plus enough food and grass to support the army for a month.

The difference is that the combat effectiveness of the Bloody Army and the Eight Banners Army is different.

Bloody Army!

During the Warring States Period, Bai Qi commanded the strongest combat force.

Each is an absolute elite with one enemy against a hundred.

30,000 bloody troops are enough to resist 300,000 border troops.

As for the Eight Banners Army, it was much weaker.

The border troops of the imperial court at the end of the Qing Dynasty were all veterans who smoked big cigarettes.

The 30,000 Eight Banners Army will be able to make a draw with the 3,000 people under Su Mo's command.

Such a 30,000 Eight Banners Army is dispensable.

The advantage of option 2 is that it can reduce some casualties.

If it was normal, he would definitely choose the second option, and the casualties of the soldiers were the most important.

But now, facing the double attack of Da Zhou and Da Wu, Su Mo knows that choosing one is the best.

30,000 bloody troops.

It is enough to be regarded as 300,000 border troops.

At that time, he will have an army of 600,000 under his command.

The most important thing is that these 30,000 bloody troops do not need to provide food and grass.

With these 30,000 people, he can completely defeat the Yumen Pass.

Then he relied on the special status of Yumen Pass to negotiate with the Dawu Dynasty.

At that time, he will be able to get more.

Now the urgent task of the day is to let the Dawu Dynasty see their strength.

Only when they are scared can they be honest.

"System, I choose one."

"Congratulations to the host for making the choice, please capture Yumen Pass as soon as possible, and 30,000 bloody troops will be distributed."

"Please ask the host to choose whether or not to summon the Bloodthirsty Army?"

Su Mo glanced at the battle situation and decided not to summon it for the time being.

30,000 bloody troops, used as surprise soldiers, are enough to change the tide of the war.

Showing your strength in advance is not good for the siege at all.

Looking at the Yumen Pass not far away, Su Mo was shocked in his heart.

300,000 border troops have reached the hinterland.

These people's momentum has not weakened in the slightest.

It is worthy of being the last natural danger of the Dawu Dynasty.

The ones sent are also some elite in the army.

To deal with such people, the strategic approach needs to be changed.

"Husband fights, courage also, one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion, he exhausts me, so he overcomes."

This is the essence of ancient Chinese culture.

The same is true of the attack on Yumen Pass.

Once the Yumen Pass is broken, the Dawu Dynasty will take whatever it wants.

Therefore, these soldiers will work together to fight to the death.

This was the time when their morale was at its peak.

A forcible siege of the city will inevitably cause a lot of unnecessary casualties.

After thinking about it, he decided to fight between the two armies.

First, this is the custom of the Dawu Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In all major battles, the generals must be fought first.

He turned and said to the crowd behind him.

"Order, the morale of the fighting generals before the war will be raised!"

The voice fell, and all the lieutenants were blind.

Fighter?

I haven't experienced it for a long time.

Su Mo has always advocated travelogue tactics.

The enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I pursue.

These tactics are engraved in the minds of the border troops.

Now that they can finally fight head-on, all the generals rubbed their hands and looked forward to it.

A strong man spoke in a muffled voice.

"General, let me come."

Seeing him speak, the people who had planned to step forward to fight were silent.

The strong man's original name was Iron Bull, but he was a criminal.

At first, he joined the border army as cannon fodder.

In all major battles, let them rush to the front and use them to die.

However, this iron bull man is as powerful as a cow as his name.

Every time you fight a big battle, you can come back alive.

Not only that, but from time to time, he could also kill several soldiers of the Dawu Dynasty.

After coming and going, he gradually broke away from the status of a death row prisoner and became a member of the border army.

Since then, he has become a fierce general in the border army.

When Su Mo arrived, Tie Niu was the most unconvinced.

How can an elegant scholar lead the border army?

When you come up, you have to compare yourself with Su Mo.

Then, Su Mo made a bet with him.

Su Mo led 300 people, and Tie Niu led 3,000 people.

Whoever loses listens.

It was that battle that established Su Mo's position in the border army.

Since then, he has conquered everyone by defeating the weak again and again.

The men in the army go straight to the point, and whoever is strong will listen to whomever they want.

As long as you can lead them to win the Dawu Dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that Tie Niu has become a diehard loyalist of Su Mo.

Just when everyone thought that the iron bull was bound to be the first to appear, another strong man like an iron tower spoke out.

"Why are you the iron bull taking the lead?"

"If you want to talk about force, I won't lose a few points to you."

Seeing the two competing against each other, all the generals were smiling, waiting to watch the show.

The strong man of the iron tower is named Cheng Wu, and he is a general of the imperial court.

Born in a famous family, I am most dissatisfied with these people who are born halfway.

He was previously transferred to the border army under Iron Bull.

In addition, both of them are unparalleled fierce generals with infinite strength, so no one is convinced of anyone.

There is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts.

The two have always wanted to compete for the title of the first fierce general in the army.

Now that they are fighting generals, both of them naturally want to take the lead.

Seeing Cheng Wu speak, Tie Niu also retorted unconvinced.

"Then why are you Cheng Wu the first?"

"I'm not convinced."

Hearing this, Cheng Wu flashed the iron gun in his hand and said provocatively.

"Not convinced?"

"If you don't accept it, let's have a fight."

Where can the straight-going iron bull stand this.

He lifted the mace beside him and was about to rush out.

On the side, all the lieutenants stood with their chests crossed.

Both men are recognized as fierce generals in the army.

No one is convinced of anyone.

In addition, the two of them have extremely hot tempers, and no one dares to stop them at this time.

Someone had intervened to stop it before, but then it was stopped after being seriously injured by the two.

Seeing that the momentum of the two was getting higher and higher, Su Mo couldn't help but turn around and said coldly.

"What? Want to lead the law? ”

"Forgot the rules, did you?"

The cold voice calmed them both down.

Tie Niu stepped forward with a grin and said with a smile.

"Don't be angry, I'll play with him."

"The general said that whoever he was allowed to go would go."

On the side, Cheng Wu also scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Yes, General, you have the final say."

Seeing the two thorns soften, all the lieutenants were disappointed.

These two people are not afraid of heaven and earth, but they are afraid of Su Mo.

Now that the general has spoken, he can't fight if he wants to.

It's a pity that I could have watched a shocking battle.

Looking at the Yumen Pass not far away, Su Mo turned around and said to Tie Niu behind him.

"Iron Bull, you take the lead."

The latter was overjoyed when he saw this, and stepped forward on his horse and rushed to the front of the Jade Gate.

"Listen up to the garbage of Yumen Pass."

"Your Grandpa Tie Niu is going to teach you a lesson today."

"Hurry down and let your Grandpa Tie Niu loosen his muscles."

Above the Jade Gate, all the people of the Dawu Dynasty changed their faces.

Bastard.

I also dared to come to the Yumen Pass to spread wild.
