Volume 10 Chapter 131
After hearing this, the generals were confused and full of doubts. They didn't know what Xiao Muqing meant. Wu Guang and Jiang Fan also wanted to know what kind of medicine Xiao Muqing was selling in the gourd, but their personalities dictated that neither of them would ask first. Shang Xing, commander of the Second Corps, who was impatient, asked: "General, what do you mean? Since we know that they are coming to steal the camp, why don't we set up defenses?"
Xiao Muqing smiled slightly, "If we want to defeat the Tiger Army, it is impossible to rely on our Pingyuan Army to confront us head-on. Even if we defend, it will be extremely disadvantageous for us. Even if we can withstand the opponent's attack, our losses will be huge. , is unacceptable to us. We are now a sharp knife, we must keep moving forward, moving forward, directly to the enemy's most deadly heart, and the current Tiger Army is the hardest piece of armor between us and the enemy's heart, and we must thoroughly To crush him, he is not only a layer of armor, but also a symbol of Mo's power, and has a spiritual pillar role that other Central Military forces do not have.

The generals listened with rapt attention and couldn't help but nod their heads frequently. Moma's speed and strength, charging on the plains, were truly astonishing. With us, even defending will cause huge casualties to ourselves, and we are far away from the country, so it is difficult to even replenish supplies, let alone replenish soldiers?
Xiao Muqing pointed to a circled place on the map on the wall and continued: "In order to completely annihilate the Tiger and Ben army, we must suppress the cavalry's combat effectiveness. According to the spies' report, there is an abandoned Jinshi City 30 miles west of Jinshi City. The mine is called Jinniu Mountain. Although it is called Jinniu Mountain, after hundreds of years of mining, the gold has been mined. The mountain was originally one, but now it has been mined into two mountains in the north and south. There are waste rocks and residues everywhere. Here is It will be the burial place of Huben Army.”
These words were spoken very quickly, but they were very clear. Not only did the generals feel distressed for a while, especially Wu Guang and Jiang Fan, they met the enemy in the afternoon. It turned out that Xiao Muqing had already thought of a strategy to defeat the enemy. He couldn't help but secretly admire him, but his appearance remained the same. They were calm and composed, and outsiders could not see any changes in their psychology.
Xiao Muqing was silent for a moment and continued: "There are two characteristics here. First, this mountain is a mine and there is no forest land, which is not conducive to our army's ambush. Second, although there are gravels everywhere within a radius of 10 miles, there is a transportation in the middle. The ore road goes through the mountains.”
The generals were listening in rapt attention, but they couldn't help but frown when they heard this. Firstly, we want to suppress the power of the enemy's cavalry, and secondly, we want to set up an ambush. Neither of these two characteristics seems to be beneficial to us!
Xiao Muqing paused, as if he was deliberately trying to put off the enemy. After only holding on for a moment, Kong Xiao, commander of the First Corps, couldn't wait to ask: "General, the two points you mentioned do not seem to be conducive to us defeating the enemy."
"General Li, on the surface it seems unfavorable to my method, but it is also the key to defeating the enemy. Mo State knows Jinniu Mountain very well, which is not conducive to laying an ambush. They know better than us, but if it is night, let alone 60,000 ambush troops , even if it is 600,000, it will be difficult to detect without careful investigation, let alone the entire army in black clothes and black armor." Xiao Muqing received it immediately. When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that if we were defeated and fled, the Huben Army would be eager to pursue us and would have no time to conduct a large-scale investigation.
There is a flat road in the middle of the mountain, and the Mo cavalry is even more confident and will pursue them to the end. Kong Xiao seemed to understand and received the message: "General, what you mean is that we seal the front road first, wait for the enemy to chase between the two mountains, and then cut off the enemy's retreat, trapping the Tiger Army on the only road between the two mountains?" "All the generals have been on the battlefield for a long time. Xiao Muqing said that to that extent, everyone guessed it. Xiao Muqing nodded slightly, and at the same time looked deeply ahead.
After a moment of pause, Xiao Muqing said seriously: "There are three more keys to this battle, otherwise it will be difficult for us to succeed."
At this time, the generals looked at Xiao Muqing with wide eyes, wondering what he was referring to?
Xiao Muqing continued: "During today's battle, I have ordered people to clean up the surrounding enemy spies, and ordered the Third Army Corps to seal the road west of Jinniu Mountain, and ordered the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Army Corps to prepare more arrows to go to the Jinniu Mountains. Set up an ambush and order the Ninth Corps to hide in the mountain col 5 miles east and north of Jinniu Mountain. At the same time, prepare huge weapons on both sides of the road to cut off the enemy's retreat. "The generals were excited because of the huge defeat of Huben's army today. At this time. I just felt it, no wonder there were a lot less people.
"Key point one, when the Tiger and Ben troops attack, we must rely on the remaining 1,200 and 40 corps to defend with all our strength. We must make the enemy feel that our entire army is still there, so our remaining four corps must concentrate on the front line. We To create the illusion of 100,000 people. The second key is not to cause chaos when retreating, and everything except weapons must be discarded, including food. The third key point is to block other Mo Central troops from rescuing the Huben army. "
After saying this, everyone frowned. The first point is easy to say, but the second point is more difficult to control. This will definitely cause huge casualties to our side. And the third point, how can we stop others? The strength of the Central Army has increased?
While everyone was still thinking about it, Xiao Muqing turned around and came to the table of the chief commander and said seriously: "The commander of the Twenty-Forty Corps received the order and will do his best to prevent the enemy's sneak attack tonight. After the enemy broke through the camp, he immediately retreated to the west. The Second Corps is responsible for dividing it into groups. To block the enemy, we must not let the enemy catch up with the Fourth and Tenth Corps until the Huben Army is introduced between the two mountains of Jinniu." The three regiment commanders received the order in unison and retreated. At this time, everyone looked at the commander of the Second Corps, Shang Xing. The commander of the Second Corps understands the mission he has accepted. He is afraid that not many of his tens of thousands of brothers will be able to survive tonight. But now any regiment in Feng Country will only be able to accept such a mission. I am afraid that no one will retreat. This is what makes a strong country strong. I am afraid that only the army of Zhen Kingdom can possess this.
"The first corps received the order. When it retreats, your troops will be the first to retreat. But don't think about the west. Retreat to the north and then regroup. After half an hour of Tiger's Army chasing twenty or forty corps, follow the Tiger's Army to the east of Jinniu Mountain. Form a formation to block the other central armies of Mozambique. If the situation is urgent, it is necessary to assist the Ninth Corps to block the counterattack of the Huben Army. Generals Wu Guang and Jiang Fan will fight with the same corps."
After everyone received the order, Xiao Muqing said to the commander of the 1st and 2nd Corps, your two corps have a heavy responsibility in this battle and may suffer more casualties, especially the 2nd Corps, but for our Dafeng, we must do our best to complete the mission. "Yes, yes", the commander of the 1st and 2nd Corps replied. He also told Wu Guang and Jiang Fan that having two generals blocking the Mo Central Army would give great confidence to the officers and soldiers of the other corps who were encircling and annihilating the Tiger and Ben Army. Wu Guang and Jiang Fan were still very calm. .
