The army set out and marched to Jia County overnight.

Currently stationed in Jia County are the 2,000 Red Shadow Army left by Su Xiaoxiao. The Red Shadow Army saw Zhang Yong and others who were leading the battle, and opened the city gate for the army.

County Magistrate Yuan personally went out of the city to meet him, but he didn't see the leader of the Scarlet Shadow Army, Little Devil, and his heart was relieved. Although he didn't want to admit it, he was terrified of that little girl.

Xiao Duye also came to Jia County, County Magistrate Yuan invited him to live in the county government office, but Xiao Duye refused.

"The king and the soldiers advance and retreat together, where the army goes, where does the king go."

Yuan County Magistrate: You are afraid that it will be unsafe to leave the army...

Magistrate Yuan thought about these words in his heart, but naturally he didn't dare to say them out of his mouth. He personally followed the army to the barracks.

Xiao Duye lived in the largest tent.

No matter how pampered he was, he was forced to the point of life and death. He realized the seriousness of the situation. Unlike the Southwest War, the target was only thousands of rebels. Su Mo easily encircled and suppressed the opponent.

This time, battles were fought one after another, and with great difficulty, most of Tuoba Lie's army was wiped out, and He Lianye brought another 100,000 troops.

Xiao Duye had trouble sleeping and eating, so he summoned Qin Canglan, Su Mo and Leng's family.

When he saw Wei Ting appearing behind Qin Canglan, he was slightly stunned: "Aren't you injured, are you recuperating in Wengcheng?"

Wei Ting said without changing his expression: "I have taken the wound medicine and I feel much better, not to mention the big battle is coming, even if I recuperate, I don't feel at ease."

Leng Kui and the others snorted coldly in their hearts, and they spoke in a high-sounding way. Didn't they make sure that Leng Ziling had left and no one threatened that girl, so they came here to help?

But he was afraid that he didn't know, so Leng Ziling turned back again, right?

At this moment, Leng Ziling had already kidnapped that girl to Beiyan.

Xiao Duye had a lot of unhappiness with Wei Ting in the past, but now Wei Ting is more pleasing to the eye: "Since we are here, let's discuss the next countermeasures together."

Several people sat down in the tent, and on the table in front of them was a large sand table, which restored the city and landforms of the border.

Xiao Duye asked solemnly: "Helianye's army will arrive at Suibei Pass tomorrow evening. This king wants to ask you, are you sure about this battle?"

Leng Kui didn't rush to speak, but looked at Qin Canglan.

Qin Canglan said: "As long as everything goes according to plan, it will not be difficult to defeat Helian Ye."

Leng Zhao laughed when he heard this: "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Before the battle, he threatened to win. Isn't it a little careless to underestimate the enemy?"

Wei Ting smiled: "Isn't it a little cowardly to raise others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige before the fight?"

Leng Zhao choked.

Xiao Duye frowned, he hoped to win in his heart, but at the same time he was worried that if he lost, he would not be able to explain to his father when he returned to Beijing.

He said seriously: "If you have any good plans, just tell them and listen."

Qin Canglan looked at Leng Kui with a half-smile, "Is there anything General Leng wants to say? If it's a peace talk, then there's no need."

Leng Kui said coldly: "I didn't say I want peace talks!"

He is not a fool, the matter has come to this point, where is there any hope for peace talks? I can only bite the bullet and fight.

He stood up, pointed to the sand table and said: "Helianye's army wants to pass through the Suibei Pass. There are three roads to choose from. One is the official road in the Suibei Valley, and the other is the Mang Mountain in the west, which is the road connecting the North Pass. The third road to the snow-capped mountain in the Yan Camp is the Yubing Lake in the east. It is winter now, and the lake is covered with a thick layer of ice, allowing large troops to pass through. He Lianye will definitely not put all his troops on the road. At one point, his main force will take the official road in the valley, but he will also split up two groups of troops to make a detour from Mang Mountain and Yubing Lake to attack. I propose to set up an ambush at these two places."

Xiao Duye nodded in agreement: "This strategy is indeed wonderful."

"What about after the ambush?" Qin Canglan asked.

Leng Kui said in a deep voice: "Of course they will be killed! Let's kill one by one. Let's set up an ambush and wait for work, and wait for their troops to arrive!"

Qin Canglan said bluntly: "I don't agree. First of all, let's not say that you are wrong. Even if you take a small part of his troops, the main force is still there. We would not have an advantage in terms of strength. If we can't If we can effectively kill their main force, even if we kill this part of the army, we will lose."

Leng Kui turned cold: "How do you want to fight?"

Qin Canglan pointed to the jade stone representing Yubing Lake on the sand table and said, "Helianye's main force will come to the valley to fight us head-on, and Tuoba Lie's 30,000 troops will go to Yubing Lake and raid our rear at any time. 10,000 soldiers waited near Yuhu Lake, fought Tuoba Lie, but were defeated, and led Tuoba Lie into the city of Jia County, where he was caught."

Leng Kui sternly said: "Bringing you to the city? You're crazy! What about the people in the city?"

County Magistrate Yuan said weakly: "I received a message from the Generalissimo this morning, asking me to evacuate the people in the city ahead of time. Three days ago, we started to set up institutions in the city."

The Leng family was startled when they heard this.

Su Mo cast a cold glance at the few people, did he really think that his great-uncle got the title of Grand Marshal of the World's Army and Horses by chance?

Qin Canglan continued: "From Yubing Lake, there are no good ambush locations along the way, so your so-called one-pot battle does not exist on the battlefield of Yubing Lake. Unless you can also use 30,000 troops to fight Tuoba Lie will fight to the death, but you and I know that this is impossible."

Leng Kuidao didn't speak.

Leng Zhao said disdainfully: "Why do you think that Tuoba Lie will lead an army of 30,000 to Yubing Lake?"

Qin Canglan looked at County Magistrate Yuan.

County Magistrate Yuan said awkwardly: "When Tuoba Lie's army went back to Beiyan, the spies from the Red Shadow Army followed up to see. Tuoba Lie sent a thousand cavalry to go back to Beiyan by detouring Yubing Lake."

Needless to say, these thousand people went to Yubing Lake to explore the way. When Tuoba Lie fled, he had already thought about it. He would kill Da Zhou's troops by surprise when he came back from Yubing Lake.

Qin Canglan said: "If you want to catch turtles in the urn in the city, 10,000 people are enough. Besides, there are several good ambush locations in Mang Mountain, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. I guess Beiyan will not send too many troops to die. You can arrange 10,000 troops." People and horses ambushed here, remember not to stay here, kill them all, then the army advances northward, goes around the rear of the Beiyan army, and burns their food and grass. Burning food and grass will shake the morale of the army more than beheading generals!"

Xiao Duye's blood boiled when he heard it.

When he heard Leng Kui's strategy, he felt that Leng Kui was worthy of being the most outstanding general of the Leng family, but only after hearing Qin Canglan's words did he realize what it means to use soldiers like a god.

Qin Canglan said again: "Wei Ting leads 10,000 troops to Yubing Lake, and Mang Mountain is handed over to your Leng family, and it is also 10,000 troops, do you have any objections?"

Killing 30,000 troops deserved more credit than burning food and grass, and the Leng family was naturally unconvinced after hearing this arrangement.

Leng Hua said seriously: "Grandfather, I am willing to fight Tuoba Lie!"

I seem to be getting too fierce
