"Report, the Xiqi army is coming, and it is less than ten miles away from our military camp at this time!"

Xiqi's movements had already alarmed Deng Jun's scouts. In fact, Deng Jiugong had already received the news of Xiqi's troops, and he even knew the specific time. At this moment, a large number of generals gathered in front of his tent, including Chen Qi.

Knowing that Chen Qi took the initiative to vote, Deng Jiugong was overjoyed and immediately promoted him to general, the same level as Tailuan. Zheng Lun stayed in Northern Xinjiang, which meant that he had one less general under his command, and Chen Qi's arrival just made up for this vacancy.

Chen Qi is good at spells and Zheng Lun have their own merits, he was secretly passed on by the stranger, and he developed a yellow gas in his abdomen, opened his mouth, and the yellow gas spewed out, and the soul of the person who saw it dispersed.

Of course, in the face of those with profound Dao and strong souls, this kind of spell has limited effect on them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the big war is imminent, I won't discuss the details of the battlefield with you too much, and you will act directly according to my orders, and there must be no mistakes!"

All the generals said in unison: "The last general will take orders." ”

Deng Jiugong nodded with satisfaction, for the sake of the future, it is necessary to prohibit it, otherwise where is the majesty of the boss. He immediately gave an order: "Gao Jineng, Tailuan, I will order the two of you to lead 30,000 elite soldiers to take a small road from Yanshan to attack Xiqi City." ”

Jiang Ziya took the big road, and he asked Gao Ji to copy the small road, so as to avoid the Xiqi army.

When he received Jiang Ziya's battle letter, Deng Jiugong told the generals to defeat Jiang Ziya on the battlefield in a dignified manner, but this dignified and upright did not mean that the two armies fought directly on the battlefield, so even if Jiang Ziya was defeated, his 150,000 army was afraid that there would be little left. This kind of war is the most rigid and stupid tactic, Deng Jiugong does not intend to use it, the tactics he arranges must pay attention to strategy, and only by using Zhengfu Qi can he be sure to inflict heavy damage on Jiang Ziya.

Gao Jineng and Tailuan both came out of the queue and arched their hands: "The last general will take the order." ”

"Jiang Ziya's elite is exhausted, the defense of Xiqi City will inevitably be empty, your soldiers are coming to the city, you must make the momentum of a battle under the city, but you can't break through the city gate. ”

As soon as these words came out, the generals were puzzled, since they had already decided to attack the city, why not take advantage of the situation to break the city. Jiang Ziya's absence is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win Xiqi City, if you can catch the rebellious minister and thief Ji Fa, then the battle of the Western Expedition will be able to perfectly close the palace.

The marshal is promoted, and the generals are promoted, this is the ideal picture that everyone is looking forward to, but the coach means to give up this opportunity.

Deng Jiugong saw that everyone was puzzled, and said with a smile: "I know that you don't understand my decision, let me sell it first, and when the time comes, you will naturally know." Gao Jineng and Tailuan, you have sufficient manpower, when attacking the city, you must surround three and one, and do not start a war in the four cities at the same time, otherwise it will be unfavorable to us. ”

"Wai Sanque one?"

Gao Jineng's eyes flickered a few times, and he praised: "The marshal's understanding of the art of war is really the first person in ancient and modern times, even if the Xuanyuan Emperor is inferior to it. ”

The others looked confused, and the three sides were a classic case in "The Art of War", they had never seen it, so it was naturally almost impossible to understand. Gao Jineng is a keen lover of the art of war and has been obsessed with it for a long time, so it is easy to understand the meaning of these words.

Deng Jiugong said with a smile: "Ben Shuai has already said that the first thing to consider on the battlefield is the time, location and artificiality, and finally the manpower." Going to the army to fight and conquer without a fight is the most clever tactic!"

Gao Jineng nodded thoughtfully, assuming that the two armies were engaged and one side surrendered without a fight, wouldn't it be the most clever tactic.

Chen Qi is not a reckless man, and he can resolutely resign from the position of grain supervisor and come to the Xiqi battlefield alone, which shows that his vision is superior. He carefully recalled Deng Jiugong's words, and suddenly said: "Marshal, you said that with Zhengfuqi, didn't you use the attack on Xiqi City to force Jiang Ziya to return to the division to save himself." ”

Deng Jiugong glanced at him in surprise, and said with a smile: "I originally wanted to sell a pass, but since General Chen Qi guessed my plan, I will tell you." Everyone, please look at the sand table. ”

When all the generals heard this, they all gathered around them. Deng Jiugong fiddled with the sand table and said eloquently: "In this battle, there were originally four major disadvantages to our army, but this commander destroyed the biggest threat with the momentum of thunder, and there are still three major disadvantages; first, Jiang Ziya has 300,000 male divisions, and our side only has 150,000 horses, which is far less than the number. Second, Jiang Ziya's generals are like clouds, and on the other hand, on our side, Deng Chanyu and Zheng Lun are not in the barracks, so they can't fight with them. Third, Jiang Ziya is fighting in his own country, and he has the advantage of time and place, which is beyond our side. ”

When the generals heard this, they nodded their heads.

Deng Jiugong continued: "With the above three points, if our army fights hard with it, the chances of victory are slim. Therefore, I asked Gao Jineng and the others to surprise attack Xiqi City, break Jiang Ziya's combat deployment, take the initiative in passivity, and lead him by the nose. ”

If you talk about arranging troops, to be honest, you are not as good as Jiang Ziya, but you have countless classic battles in later generations to learn from, which is far better than him.

Tailuan is a rough man, simple-minded, and well-developed limbs, he is puzzled: "Marshal, if Jiang Ziya sits back and watches Xiqi City and does not save it, then your calculation will not be in vain." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals laughed, Tailuan frowned, and hummed: "What are you laughing at, am I asking the wrong question." ”

Chen Qi relieved the siege and said: "General Tailuan, Xiqi is Jiang Ziya's base camp, if you sit back and watch Xiqi City be destroyed, not to mention that he is ashamed of Ji Chang's father and son, the 300,000 soldiers under his command will not agree, if it is really at that time, I am afraid that Jiang Ziya's reputation will be ruined and he will become a street rat that everyone shouts and beats." ”

When Tailuan heard this, he was a little embarrassed, laughed dryly, and then lowered his head and pretended to look at the sand table.

Deng Jiugong smiled faintly, and asked Zhao Sheng how he felt in the last ambush battle. Zhao Sheng raised his head and straightened his chest, and said: "It feels very cool, according to the marshal's words, it is to beat the water dog." ”

When the generals saw him compare Jiang Ziya to a water dog, they all laughed.

Deng Jiu said fairly: "Do you want to do such an ambush battle again?" ”

Zhao Sheng was so excited that he blurted out without thinking about it: "Think, the last general wants to beat Jiang Ziya behind his ass in his dreams, and he will fall into the water." ”

"Okay, then I'll give you 10,000 archers, and I'll set up an ambush in the same position. ”

"Ah, it's ...... In the midst of the reeds...... Ambush?"

Zhao Sheng was stunned, all the generals showed puzzlement, Jiang Ziya is not stupid, will he suffer twice in the same place. As the saying goes: eat a trench, grow a wisdom. If you were an ordinary person, you wouldn't make the same mistakes, let alone Jiang Ziya, who was resourceful.

Deng Jiu said fairly: "Yes, you are still setting up an ambush there, it is late autumn now, the grass and trees are withering, and they will burn when they meet the fire, you bring enough fuel." First spread hay on the road, and when Jiang Ziya's army returned to the division, ten thousand arrows were fired, and the arrows were tied with fuel, so that the Xiqi army would inevitably be in chaos when it encountered a fire attack. ”

Jiang Ziya is a smart person, but the smarter a person, the more he believes in himself, the easier it is to make the same mistakes. Besides, Jiang Ziya is limited by the limitations of this era, and how can he know the way of conspiracy.

Zhao Sheng's eyes lit up, and he said with great joy: "The last general will take the order!"

There was nothing more exciting for him than fighting.

The generals are also bright-eyed, according to the marshal's arrangement, they will definitely be able to break the Xiqi army, Jiang Ziya is only afraid that he will lose miserably.

Chen Qi's eyes were full of admiration, in the face of the attack of a strong enemy, Marshal Deng said a few words, as if the enemy had been wiped out, this kind of powerful and incomparably confident attitude, it was the first time he had seen it. No wonder the generals adored him so much, and their words all respected him.
