Shen Yi pointed to a point on the map and said slowly.
Su Ding looked along where Shen Yi pointed. There was a hill there, shaped like a pagoda, so it was called Pagoda Mountain.
Pagoda Mountain is next to the Shuhe River.
The Shuhe River is a river that runs from north to south. To be precise, Pagoda Mountain is on the east side of the Shuhe River. After crossing the Shuhe River, about 60 miles to the west, you will find the city of Xuzhou.
The Shu River is not very wide, and the local people built bridges at the narrow spots, but it is indeed a river.
Shen Yi pointed to the hill and said, "I personally took a look at this Pagoda Mountain during the day. The hillside is not very high, but there is no problem in hiding a few people."
"We can let some of our troops cross the Shu River, and then hide the other part on Pagoda Mountain."
Shen Yi narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Wait for the little tails behind us to catch up, then encircle them and eat them."
Su Ding looked at the direction of Shen Yi's finger. He thought for a while and said: "Mr. Shen, there is nothing wrong with your method. The problem is that we need to hide at least ten thousand people in this Pagoda Mountain to completely surround it.
The tail behind us, if there are more than 10,000 people, it will be a mighty force."
"Let's not talk about whether we can hide it from the Qi people's scouts, but we definitely can't hide it from the local people."
"This is not a sparsely populated place. During the day, I looked around at the terrain and asked the local people. There are people living up and down the mountain. There are hunters on the mountain and Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain..."
"Qi people are not stupid, they will definitely ask the local people."
Su Ding lowered his head and said, "It's hard to hide."
"It is impossible to hide ten thousand people."
Shen Yi whispered: "Besides, our total attack force is only 20,000 people. If we suddenly lose half of it, the Qi people who are following us will be able to tell."
Shen Yi stretched out a finger and said, "There is only one thousand-household camp hidden."
"Hide in in the middle of the night and spread out as much as possible. After everyone crosses the Shu River, we will be reunited."
"A thousand-household camp?"
Su Ding's complexion changed slightly.
A thousand-household camp in Dachen does not have a total of 1,000 people, but almost 1,080 people.
And there were at least four thousand Qi people following them!
In other words, if you want to complete this plan, this Thousand Household Camp must block the four Thousand Household Camps head-on for a period of time!
Try your best to hold them back!
Su Ding opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Xue Wei stood up and said, "Mr. Shen, I am willing to lead a camp of thousands of households and disperse into the Pagoda Mountain at night."
Shen Yi pointed to the chair, motioned for him to sit down, and then continued: "Listen to me first."
After Xue Wei sat down again, Shen Yi continued: "It would be best if our troops were not discovered by the Qi people. We will go back to surround them and kill them. The Qianhu Battalion will block them from the rear. Although
You may not be able to eat them all in one bite, so there is no problem in leaving most of them."
"If the Qi people discover it."
Shen Yi looked calm and said: "Then they will be trapped in Baota Mountain by these thousand people. They will not dare to continue southward. By then, my main force will no longer have to pay attention to the four thousand people from Haizhou.
You can go straight to Xuzhou, join Ling Su and others, and attack Xuzhou City."
Su Ding frowned and whispered: "Mr. Shen, what about the thousand people who stayed behind?"
Shen Yi looked calm and said: "Waiting for an opportunity to go south to Suqian. If the Qi people pursue us, we will withdraw from the battlefield in Huaibei and return to Huai'an."
"If the Qi people stop chasing, they will move from Su to Xuzhou and join the main force."
Speaking of this, Shen Yi continued: "Even if the Qi people find out that we have left troops in Pagoda Mountain, it is unlikely that we will know how many people we have left. They only have four thousand people. It is unlikely that they will rashly search the mountain or even go deep into it."
Pagoda Mountain.”
"It's difficult to stop the enemy in this Qianhu Camp, but it shouldn't be a big problem to withdraw from the battlefield."
After Xue Wei heard this, he still stood up silently, cupped his fists and saluted: "Mr. Shen, the last general..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Ding also stood up. He first glanced at Xue Wei, then lowered his head to Shen Yi and said, "Mr. Shen, I suggest that General Wan be allowed to lead this thousand-household camp."
Shen Yi looked up at Xue Wei.
Xue Wei was silent for a while, then sighed, lowered his head and said: "Mr. Shen, if Wan Zhong is allowed to lead the army, I will give him two thousand-household camps."
This army hidden behind enemy lines is very dangerous.
And it's a double risk.
The first risk is, of course, that you may have to stop an enemy several times your size, and you will definitely suffer heavy losses.
The second risk is that if the second situation occurs, then these more than a thousand people are likely to completely withdraw from the Huaibei battlefield and miss this war!
And this attack on Xuzhou was the time when the Huai'an army made great achievements!
Missing this battle will mean that your future resume will be lower than that of the rest of the Huai'an Army!
This kind of thing is indeed no longer suitable for Xue Wei to do, because Xue Wei also has to assist Su Ding and command the entire East Route Army, which has a heavy responsibility.
Mr. Shen thought for a while, and then said: "Then make an order for ten thousand bells and give him a specific number of people. I will see him alone later and talk to him again."
Xue Weisu Ding and Xue Weisu Ding looked at each other, stood up and clasped their fists, excused themselves and left, going down to prepare to go.
Wan Zhong was soon called to the Chinese army's tent. He bowed his head respectfully and called Mr. Shen.
Shen Yi motioned him to sit down, then told him about the matter in general, and then said: "That's the thing. If you lead a thousand-household camp, the possibility of being discovered by the Qi people is smaller, then the possibility of you fighting a tough battle will be smaller."
Bigger."
"If you bring two thousand-household camps, it will be just the opposite."
Shen Yi looked calm and said: "It is very likely that you will be discovered by the Qi people and withdraw from this war."
Wan Zhong stood up, lowered his head and said: "Mr. Shen, the last general will only lead a thousand-household camp!"
"For a long time, I was a member of the Qianhu camp. I led a Qianhu camp by myself. I want to take them into Pagoda Mountain!"
Shen Yi raised his head and looked at this young general who was not very tall but stocky. He stretched out his hand to touch his chin and thought about it. Then he said: "In this way, you can lead your own Qianhu camp. In addition, I will let each Qianhu camp
Here, each thousand-household camp will send out twenty elites, and I will collect 600 elites for you, and give them to you to take into Pagoda Mountain."
The elites in Shen Yi's words were basically those who had blood on their hands and killed people, and there were more than one.
Many of these people held the heads of seven or eight Qi people, and thus earned military honors and raised small flags or general flags.
Wan Zhong knelt down on the ground, clasped his fists at Shen Yi, and bowed his head deeply: "General, thank you very much, Mr. Shen!"
Shen Yi patted his shoulder, motioned him to stand up, and then said with a smile: "These elites are all rolled out on the battlefield. It is not easy to produce one. You have to make good use of them."
At this point, Shen Yi added: "But if things go wrong and we are chased by the Qi people to the Huaihe River, you can withdraw from Huaibei and return to Huai'an. I don't blame you."
"This time, all the soldiers, including you, General Wan, have credit for holding back the Qi people or blocking the Qi people."
"I will take credit for you."
Wan Zhong bowed his head deeply: "Brothers, I would like to thank Mr. Shen very much!"
Master Shen patted his shoulder and added a few details before letting him go down to rest.
As soon as Wan Zhong exited the Chinese army tent, he was patted heavily on the shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was Xue Wei. Xue Wei took his arm and walked aside and asked: "What's going on?"
The two men came to Linhaiwei together, and both were valued by Shen Yi because they killed a Japanese pirate and joined the anti-Japanese army.
Up to now, several years have passed, and the feelings are naturally deep.
Wan Zhong grinned: "General Xue, please don't pry about military secrets."
"Good on you boy!"
Xue Wei punched him hard and cursed with a smile: "This was originally my job, but your kid snatched it away and you even hid it from me!"
Wan Zhong was in pain, grinned, and returned the favor to Xue Wei, shouting.
"Xue Da, you are not older than me, neither older nor younger...!"
