Chen Baiqi asked his servants to select a pile of stones of similar sizes from the surrounding poplar forest, and it was enough to pick a few stones from the piled sand.

She decided that one stone represented one hundred people. Her side of 5,000 people would need fifty stones in total, while Hei Lao's side of 30,000 people would need 300 stones.

"The surrounding maps have been marked on the sand pool. Hei Lao can use these 300 stones to deploy troops in the city, while Huanxian will deploy troops to attack outside the city. The stones are divided into three colors, the gray ordinary stones represent infantry, and the black stones

The pebbles with more variegated colors represent the cavalry, and the cobblestones with more variegated colors represent the archers. The three types of arms can be arranged by yourself."

"Half a stick of incense is left for both sides to arrange. After that, they can start a battle."

Chen Baiqi briefly explained the rules and asked Mr. Hei if he had any additions or suggestions.

Hei Lao is good at hand talk (Go). After Chen Baiqi's explanation, he understood everything, and he naturally knew how to "play" with her next.

Among the three types of arms, how to focus on deploying defenses is something worth thinking about. However, Hei Laoben is an old general. Although he has retired for a long time, his instinct of deploying troops in battles is still there. Coupled with the momentum, he has taken advantage of it.

The advantage, for him, is to deploy troops steadily.

And he was also very curious about how "Chen Huanxian" planned to use five thousand troops to take down his city and 30,000 troops.

Not to mention that Mr. Hei was disapproving of "Chen Huanxian"'s victory. The others understood the rules and couldn't help but secretly guess that the disparity was so huge. If it were them, how would they defeat more with less?

The more I think about it, the more headache I get, and the more I think about it, the more desperate I become.

This is completely impossible!

Soon, it was time to deploy half a stick of incense.

The "soldiers" of both sides on the sand pool have been deployed.

Hei Lao chose three types of soldiers, the number of which was 20,000 infantry, 3,000 cavalry, and 7,000 archers, for a total of 30,000.

He used 10,000 "infantry" to garrison the city, another 10,000 to cooperate with the attack of 3,000 "cavalry", and the "archers" were naturally deployed on the city tower.

It has to be said that this kind of defense can be used to attack when advancing, and can be defended when retreating. The overall situation is quite satisfactory and there is nothing wrong with it.

Everyone agreed with this kind of defense, and then looked at Chen Baiqi's side.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

Both dogs' eyes widened!

Among the three types of arms, she was not equally exposed to the rain and dew like Hei Lao. In fact, all 5,000 people chose the "cavalry".

Such an extreme choice made them look at her like a monster.

Can you still choose this way?!

Chen Baiqi did not explain why she made such a choice. She only said to Hei Lao: "I want to attack, and I choose to attack the city at night."

Although Mr. Hei was a little surprised by the choice of "Chen Huanxian"'s military unit, he didn't feel there was any need to worry.

Hearing her decision to attack the city at night, her heart brightened: "You plan to use night cover to weaken the archery accuracy of the seven thousand archers on my city tower?"

Chen Bai stood up but smiled and said nothing.

"In the dark of night, I marched into battle with three thousand cavalry and shouted."

Chen Baiqi stretched the time schedule until night, and used tree branches to move 30 sunspots and placed them in front of the suspension bridge, indicating that an attack was imminent.

Hei Lao picked up a branch in his hand and saw that "Chen Huanxian" only had three thousand and one hand left, and the remaining two thousand were not moved. He felt a little moved, so he also sent out three thousand cavalry.

"I sent three thousand cavalry to fight."

He used a branch to pick out 30 sunspots and left the city gate.

Then, with a half-smile but not a smile, he said: "In addition, I sent five thousand more infantrymen to rush out from the secret door on the side of the city and outflank them in a roundabout way."

He set aside another 50 gray stones and wrapped them in a circle with Chen Baiqi's 30 sunspots.

Hei Lao looked at "Chen Huanxian" and declared with great satisfaction: "You are now in a dangerous situation."

Chen Baiqi seemed oblivious to the danger of this scene and kept smiling calmly: "Huanxian is waiting for this to happen."

I saw that Chen Bai first dispersed the three thousand cavalry and did not confront Hei Lao's three thousand cavalry. Then he assembled the main force in the center with a "front arrow formation". The forwards spread out in the shape of an arrow, breaking through the fragile defense of the infantry.

, turned around and ran away.

When Hei Lao saw this, the smug sarcasm on his face became even more obvious. He was a strong soldier, and he would not let her escape so easily when the meat was in his mouth. He immediately ordered the cavalry and infantry to follow her in pursuit.

"The cavalry retreated three miles." Chen Baiqi said.

Hei Lao said: "The cavalry pursued for three thousand three miles."

Chen Baiqi added: "The two thousand cavalrymen who were ambushed in the forest came out and surrounded and wiped out the five thousand infantrymen."

Hei Lao was stunned when he heard this, and quickly figured out the joints, and his heart was broken!

He remembered that the infantry was slow and could not keep up with the speed of the cavalry. Now it fell far behind and fell into the hands of Chen Huanxian's two thousand cavalry.

"Hmph, if you think about your two thousand cavalry, is it possible that you can still kill all my five thousand infantry? When my cavalry comes back, I'm afraid that your two thousand cavalry... will never come back." Hei Lao said.

Although the infantry has always been difficult to defeat the cavalry, there is a huge difference in the numbers between the two, and it will not be possible to completely annihilate her cavalry in just a short time.

Chen Baiqi had other plans for this, and she said leisurely: "You can't kill them all in a short while, but since I have sent troops, I will not return empty-handed like this."

Chen Baiqi pointed to the terrain: "The infantry walked about 4,800 steps in a quarter of an hour (equivalent to sprinting three thousand meters), and at this time they happened to follow the trajectory of my cavalry and arrived at the Butterfly Slope."

Hei Lao listened to what she said, and based on the actual landforms, he estimated that it was indeed time to reach that place.

"The butterfly slope is in the shape of four wings, narrow in the middle and protruding on all sides. It is suitable to set up ambushes and blockades." Chen Baiqi added.

Hei Lao frowned with gray eyebrows and pursed his lowered lips tightly.

He was thinking about her words.

Chen Baiqi thought that he might as well let them see it in more detail, so he used branches to draw the topography of Butterfly Slope more clearly to make it easier for everyone to understand: "I set up an ambush here, and first cut off the head and tail ends of the valley with huge rocks, so as not to let these five

Thousands of troops escaped, and then took advantage of the darkness and inconvenience to cast a net from above with vines woven from the surrounding branches and forests, temporarily blocking the enemy's movement and restraining them, and then threw rocks down one after another. At this time, the enemy would be panicked and run around, and

At this time, the cavalry that emerges from the night will come out to harvest heads like a massacre at night."

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Based on Chen Baiqi's vivid description, they felt as if a tragic battle in the dark night was really happening before their eyes.

"Here, I used 200 men to lay a trap early, while the rest of the troops quickly completed the encirclement, suppression and killing."

Just when everyone was amazed, Chen Baiqi ended the battle with this summary.

Hei Lao's eyes were ups and downs, his nose was pinching and turning, and his dark face was serious at the moment.

Only then did he suddenly wake up. He had initially regarded all of this as a battle game. Just then, Chen Huanxian said, "Talking on paper." He was indeed talking on paper, and he had forgotten how unpredictable and unpredictable a real battle can be.

Already.

"I underestimated the enemy! These five thousand infantrymen, I lost unjustly!" Hei Lao said through gritted teeth.

Seeing his ugly expression, Chen Baiqi soothed him and said calmly: "Hei Lao, you are just not familiar with this kind of battlefield tactics, so you are taking it lightly. I just pretended that Huan Xian Fang demonstrated it to you. I believe Hei Lao will have other countermeasures."

Hei Lao glanced at him and puffed up his cheeks. He recognized her words in his heart.

He was just careless for a moment, and he will never be controlled by her like this again.

The first battle ended with Chen Baiqi annihilating Hei Lao's 5,000 infantrymen.

At this time, Hei Lao rearranged his troops.

He had 3,000 cavalry intact, 15,000 infantry, and 6,000 archers, for a total of 25,000 troops.

Chen Baiqi still has five thousand troops here.

In the second battle, Chen Baiqi's side still launched the attack.

"It's dawn." She pointed out the time.

Hei Laoxiao: "You no longer choose to attack at night?"

Chen Baiqi knew that this old black man had a bad temper and would pick on anyone when he was unhappy.

"Huanxian is only afraid that Hei Laojing must be wary of the night battle after last night's battle. Huanxian hopes to win the game openly and honestly."

"I'm afraid you can't win!"

Chen Baiqi saw that he was so confident: "Oh?"

"This time, I marched out with 10,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry. There were secret doors and protruding gates inside the city tower, and a magpie tower was built. A tall and solid gate wall was built outside, and the old gate tower was elevated.

The layer was changed to two layers to facilitate the use of bows and crossbows at the top and swords and spears at the bottom."

The existence of secret doors and protruding doors is to facilitate sudden attacks from multiple directions and to surprise the enemy.

The magpie platform is a shooting platform for archers, with a wall built on the platform and a "pin"-shaped shooting hole on the wall.

The gate wall makes the enemy unpredictable about the opening and closing of the city gate and the deployment of the gatekeepers.

It has to be said that this time Hei Lao had the intention to defend, and the deployment he initiated was a first-level defense, blocking Chen Baiqi's attack path.

The people around them couldn't help but feel a little regretful when they saw Hei Lao's defeat in the battle. Now when they heard that Hei Lao was setting up defenses, they couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

Defending the city like this is simply impregnable!

However, after the battle just now, they no longer dare to look down on "Chen Huanxian". Although she had a chance to defeat Hei Lao just now through some advantages of predicting the terrain, in the end she was somewhat good at fighting.

So, they waited curiously to see what "Chen Huanxian" would do. Facing the defense of Hei Lao, would she be afraid to retreat, or would she... just make a desperate move?

When Chen Baiqi saw Hei Lao's arrangement, she was silent for a long time. In the eyes of others, she was racking her brains to think of countermeasures. It seemed that this "problem" stumped her.
