The wind was sounding like waves, the grass on the ground was swaying, and dust was floating in the air. All the soldiers of Fengyun Kingdom were busy setting up camps.
In Gongsun Ba's tent, everyone's eyes were focused on Su Bai's figure. Only Liu Qingcang's face was ashen, with anger flashing in his sinister eyes.
"Su Bai, get out of here quickly, is this the place where you are so arrogant?"
Liu Qingcang scolded angrily, and his figure suddenly rose up, with a look of respect on his cheeks. He stared at Gongsun Ba, cupped his fists and saluted: "General, Su Bai is just a halberd commander under the last general. He is inexperienced.
He has never experienced killing on the battlefield, what good plan can he have?"
"General Liu, it's okay. Just listen to what he has to say. Sometimes young people can see further than us mature and prudent guys."
Gongsun Ba could tell at a glance that Liu Qingcang had a grudge against the young man in front of him, and he was deliberately suppressing him to prevent him from getting ahead. As soon as he thought of this, a light flashed across his eyes, and his eyes stayed on Su Bai's figure.
"Thank you, General!"
"General, the Hukou Cliff Mountain is steep, with solitary peaks standing tall and lush trees. A strong attack will definitely cause heavy losses, so the general thought we could use fire to attack!"
"Fire attack?"
"Fire attack!"
"Yes, it's a fire attack. This is a great plan!"
"Once there is a fire on the cliff, the soldiers of the Zichu Kingdom hiding on the mountain are like ants on a hot pot. They have no choice but to rush down the mountain at all costs in order to survive. We can cheat as long as we keep the army at the foot of the mountain."
Gongsun Ba's figure suddenly rose, a flash of approval flashed in his eyes, he suddenly turned around, stared at the map behind him with his knife-like eyes, and said in a firm voice.
"Su Bai, the halberd commander, listens to the order. This general now orders you to lead 10,000 crossbowmen and 10,000 infantry around the front of Hukou Cliff, and use fire attacks from both wings to annihilate the enemy troops on Hukou Cliff!"
"General, although the fire attack method can defeat the enemy, it also requires the right time, place and people. Now everything is ready and all we need is the east wind, so general, please rest assured and wait for the wind to come!"
"Su Bai, don't pretend to be here. The general asked you to lead people to defeat the enemy. Where did you come up with so many excuses? You came up with the strategy, and now you ask everyone to wait for the wind to come. Are you deliberately stalling for time?
, to buy time for Zichu’s enemy?”
"General, I think Su Bai has ulterior motives and is suspected of deliberately delaying the military plane!"
Liu Qingcang's expression was cold, a cunning look passed through his eyes, and he said in an angry voice.
"General Liu, since Su Bai, the halberd commander, said so, there must be his reasons. I, the general, would like to hear why you have to wait for the wind to come before you can break the enemy army?"
"General, the wind direction outside is now northwest. If we lead troops to attack Hukou Cliff at this time, our crossbows will not be able to reach the top of the mountain, let alone bring fire. Going against the wind will be very disadvantageous for us.
, only when the east wind comes, we attack with the wind. Not only will the arrows be able to shoot farther with the help of the wind, but when the southeast wind blows, the fire will also move up the cliff in the direction of the wind."
Hearing Su Bai's sonorous and powerful voice, Gongsun Ba nodded gently, as if he suddenly realized something, and the look of approval in his eyes became even stronger.
"Su Bai, the halberd-bearing commander, stepped forward to listen to the seal. The general now promotes you to the seventh rank of Yunqi Lieutenant. From now on, you can freely enter and leave the general's tent. Liu Qidu will divide his 20,000 troops into 5,000 men for you to command.
.”
"Thank you for the promotion, General. I will definitely try my best to break the Hukou Cliff!"
"Every general, please go back to your camp and take precautions. This is no longer the land of Fengyun Kingdom. Now we are at the forefront of the war. We are telling all the generals to advance one mile ahead of the sentinels to prevent the enemies of Zichu Kingdom from sneak attacks.
"
"When the east wind that Su Qiwei mentioned comes, we can launch an attack on Hukou Cliff!"
"Yes, General Mo, go get ready now!"
........
However.
At this time, three thousand soldiers on the mountain behind Hukou Cliff untied their horses from the trees, and their eyes were all focused on Lin Chong's figure, waiting for him to give orders.
"rustle!"
There was a soft sound, and Lin Chong suddenly turned around and stared at the woods at the foot of the mountain with his sharp eyes. When he saw the person clearly, a touch of joy appeared on his face.
"Report!"
"General, the enemy's 20,000 vanguard troops are reorganizing and resting three miles away. They are heavily guarded. I'm afraid a sneak attack will not work. There is an open area in front of us, and we will be shot by the enemy's crossbowmen before our troops get close!"
"Here comes the map!"
Lin Chong turned around and took the map from the soldier and spread it on the ground. Soon he found the place where the spies said the enemy troops were camping and resting.
"Three halberd commanders, please come and take a look. The enemy is resting here. Behind them is still a continuous mountain peak. Now the three of them are leading two thousand people to rush here. I, the general, is leading a thousand people to charge forward from the front.
Once their army encircles me, I will lead them under the mountain peak, and then it will be time for you to fight the enemy bravely, do you understand?"
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
Three long figures holding halberds suddenly rose up, standing as straight as swords, with resolute expressions on their cheeks and firm eyes shining with determination.
"General, don't worry, we will live up to your expectations and defeat the enemy's vanguard!"
"All the officers and soldiers obey the order. We are outnumbered in this battle, but we will not be discouraged or timid, because they have been attacking for a long distance, and when we go deep alone, we are already exhausted, and our fighting strength is not as good as before. Now we are like lambs to be slaughtered."
"If we win this battle, the emperor will definitely give me a huge reward. Do the soldiers have confidence?"
"Yes, General Lin is invincible in every battle and invincible in every attack!"
"Yes, General Lin is invincible in every battle and invincible in every attack!"
"Yes, General Lin is invincible in every battle and invincible in every attack!"
"Set off!"
Lin Chong watched the three halberd-bearing commanders leaving with two thousand soldiers. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of the sky. A strong fighting spirit exuded from his body.
"Time, now it is a race against time. Once the enemy's vanguard regains its strength and launches an attack on Anyang City, and the emperor's safety is threatened, then he will really be responsible for his death."
"Set off!"
Lin Chong looked back at the soldiers behind him who were holding spears and wearing black armor. They raised their heads and led their horses towards the foot of Hukou Cliff Mountain.
The dusk is dim and the setting sun is like blood.
The top of the sky is covered with blush.
The entire land was shrouded in twilight, and a thousand of Lin Chong's men were hidden in the woods only one mile away from the enemy's vanguard. The star-studded sunset fell from the sky and scattered on the armors of the soldiers.
"The three halberd commanders should have arrived at the designated location, it's time for us to set off!"
"Commanders, listen to the order. We are here to lure the enemy deep into our trap. Remember not to be reluctant to fight. Once they enter our ambush circle, gallop their horses directly into the center of the enemy's vanguard to take the heads of the opposing generals."
"To shoot men first, shoot horses, and to capture thieves first capture kings. Once their leading generals are killed, the enemy army will be leaderless and it will be nothing more than a pile of loose sand!"
