It is not easy to set up an ambush. It is not something that can be set up on a whim. First of all, you must be very familiar with the local terrain, topography, and topography. You must find a place that is suitable for the army to ambush, not easy to be discovered by the enemy, and conducive to launching an attack.
This place is close to the border between Morning and Ning. The Huan Army is not familiar with the terrain here, and the Feng Army is naturally not familiar with it. For the Feng Army, who is chasing the Huan Army and is new here, it is too difficult to set up an ambush, and it is basically impossible.
Xu Qing thought about it and dispelled the concerns of the Feng Army setting an ambush to lure his side into the trap. In this case, the Feng Army really wants to fight a head-on battle with his side. The Feng Army is looking for death!
Thinking of this, Xu Qing stood up.
Seeing this, the generals around him also stood up and looked at him eagerly.
Xu Qing slowly raised his hand, paused in the air for a moment, and waved it down fiercely, shouting: "Order the whole army to prepare to meet the enemy!"
"Yes! General!"
The generals were waiting for his words. As soon as he finished speaking, people all stepped in to salute, then turned and left the tent to prepare.
Xu Qing guessed correctly that the Feng Army was not familiar with the terrain of the Mo Kingdom, but there was one thing he did not expect, that there was a guide from the Mo Kingdom in the Feng Army.
Shao Fang announced to the outside world that the Mo Kingdom would not participate in the alliance to attack Feng, but would not help Feng. What he said verbally, but in fact, he still hoped that Feng could withstand the coalition of the four countries and maintain the current relatively balanced relations among the countries. When the Sanshui Army entered the territory of the Mo Kingdom, Shao Fang personally issued a secret order to provide a guide for the Sanshui Army and secretly provide help.
After Liang Qi defeated the 50,000 Huan troops, he immediately went north to chase the main force of the Huan army. According to his original intention, he did not intend to launch an attack. He was ready to follow the original strategy, follow the Huan army, create pressure, and send cavalry to harass the other side, so that the other side could not rest. However, on the way, Li She, the guide of the Mo Kingdom, found Liang Qi and pointed out that there was a Death Valley nearby, which was a place of execution and there was no way to retreat. If you want to stay and rest, it is best to stay away from there.
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. After Li She finished speaking, Liang Qi's heart suddenly moved. Death Valley? Death place? ! As a top-level commander, Liang Qi has a keen sense of smell that ordinary people do not have. As his eyes turned, he realized that he might be able to make good use of this Death Valley.
He immediately ordered the entire army to stop advancing and rest temporarily, and then took Shangguan Yuanrang and other generals, and asked Li She to lead him to the Death Valley to check in person.
They rode their horses at full speed and headed east along the foot of the mountain. It didn't take long before they arrived in front of a canyon.
The valley entrance was spacious, but it was dark, and it was pitch black inside, so nothing could be seen clearly.
Liang Qi was also very brave. He just looked around and shook his head and said, "Let's go in and take a look!"
In the middle of the night, in the dark mountains and old forests, going into the valley, even Shangguan Yuanrang was a little scared, but Liang Qi took the lead and walked in front.
The accompanying guards immediately chased after him with torches, protecting Liang Qi on both sides and entering the valley.
As Li She said, there was no way out of the valley. The cliffs on all sides were as steep as blades and as smooth as mirrors. In addition, the valley was humid, and the rocks were covered with moss. Let alone climbing up, even grabbing a handful felt slippery.
Liang Qi nodded as he looked at it. It was indeed a place of execution. Once trapped here, it would be difficult to fly. Thinking of this, he looked up again. The cliffs were so high that he could not see the end at a glance. Of course, this was also related to the dark sky, but one thing was certain, the cliffs were indeed very high.
After inspecting for a while, Liang Qi reined in his warhorse and said to everyone around him: "Okay, let's go back!"
Shangguan Yuanrang was very puzzled. He didn't understand why Liang Qi came here specially. He asked: "Liang Qi, what tricks are you up to this time?" Shangguan Yuanrang and Liang Qi were both generals. They were of the same rank. It was not excessive to call each other by their names. Shangguan Yuanrang was used to it.
Although it was late at night, the gleam in Liang Qi's eyes was still clearly visible. He looked directly at Shangguan Yuanrang, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I want to let 150,000 Huan troops die in this valley."
Shangguan Yuanrang shuddered, not because he was scared by Liang Qi's words, but because he had a bad premonition that Liang Qi seemed to be calculating against him again.
I have to admit that his intuition was correct. Liang Qi did have his mind on him again.
After returning to the base, Liang Qi immediately summoned his generals and described the dead valley they had just visited in detail. Then he said: "I have a plan. The main force of our army will ambush at the entrance of the valley and on the mountain. We will send a small force to lure the Huan army. As long as we lead the Huan army into the valley, they will be trapped immediately. It will be up to our army to kill them or not." After hearing this, the generals took a breath and looked at each other. No one spoke. Liang Qi said it simply, but the Huan army was not stupid. How could they be attracted by their small force? Besides, even if they sent a small force, they were their brothers. They led the enemy into the valley, so how could they get out? Would they perish together with the enemy? Liang Qi knew what everyone was thinking. He smiled confidently and said, "We can send 5,000 men to attack the Huan army camp. As long as we prepare more torches, who can tell how many people we have in the middle of the night?" "But General, isn't it like hitting a rock with an egg to attack a 150,000-man Huan army?" Bai Yong said worriedly. I'm afraid that after a huge attack, no one will be able to survive and escape from the battlefield.
Liang Qi waved his hand and said: "There is no need to attack the Huan Army's camp. As long as it is within ten miles, the Huan Army will take the initiative to attack. The Huan Army just lost 50,000 people and is now in a sad mood. When we see the main force of our army coming, If they attack, they will definitely think that our army is arrogant soldiers who have been dazzled by victory. How can they defend the camp under the pressure of revenge? "
Bai Yong nodded. What Liang Qi said made sense. He asked: "Even if we really lured out the main force of the Huan Army, how could our five thousand brothers escape? The general also said that the valley is the Valley of Death and there is no road. Run away!"
Liang Qi sighed. Sometimes he really wanted to cut open Bai Yong's head and stuff some of his cleverness into it. He said: "Our soldiers who are ambushing on the mountain can prepare ropes in advance. As long as the brothers enter the valley, tie the ropes to their bodies and let the people on the mountain pull them up."
Why? This is a solution! Bai Yong rolled his eyes, chuckled, nodded and said, "General, this... is feasible."
The other generals also nodded. With Liang Qi's explanation, what was originally a fantasy seemed to have turned into a clever plan.
While people were thinking carefully, Bai Yong asked again: "So, general, who do you think is the most suitable person to lead these five thousand soldiers?"
This sentence gets to the point. Liang Qi said it easily, touching his upper lip to his lower lip, but it was not easy to do it.
If you lead 5,000 brothers to seduce an army of 150,000 people, if you are not careful, you may be overtaken by the enemy. Then there will be no need to fight, and the 5,000 people will be directly trampled into a pulp by the army of 150,000 people. Furthermore, even if they ran into the valley, it was still unknown whether they would have a chance to escape along the rope. The Huan army was not a wooden stake. How could they watch their brothers escape without knowing how to shoot arrows? Five thousand people might become five thousand targets hanging on the cliff... No one is willing to take on such a near-death mission.
Everyone's reaction was also as expected by Liang Qi. The latter slowly looked around everyone, and finally, his eyes settled on one person.
Shangguan Yuanrang.
Shangguan Yuanrang had already guessed that Liang Qi didn't have good intentions when he was in the valley. Sure enough, now that he saw him looking directly at him, his guess was confirmed.
"Hey! Liang Qi, you're not going to leave this job to me again, are you?" You and Liang Qi have been working together for too long and are very familiar with each other. Shangguan Yuanrang can tell what Liang Qi is going to do when he raises his eyebrows. .
Liang Qi chuckled, raised his hand, and said with a dry smile: "Yuan Rang, I don't worry about sending anyone else. Only you and your force can prevent our brothers from being trapped by the enemy... …”
"Stop doing this!"
Shangguan Yuanrang was very familiar with Liang Qi's habits. Every time he was assigned an important task, he would always praise himself first, and then turn his back on others and ignore his own life and death. It was probably the same this time.
Seeing that he had seen through his own thoughts, Liang Qi switched to the strategy of mourning the soldiers and suppressed his smile. He sighed quietly and said: "Although our army has just won a victory, the enemy still has 150,000 soldiers. So, If there is a head-to-head confrontation with many enemies on the battlefield, even if our army can win in the end, there will be countless casualties and a great loss of vitality. But now is an excellent opportunity. As long as the enemy troops are introduced into Death Valley, 150,000 will be killed. The Huan Army is at our mercy, so how many of our Feng Kingdom's sons will not bleed and die on the battlefield! I... don't want to put my troops in danger, but I just want to save some of our Feng Kingdom's soldiers from being buried in foreign lands. Bring more brothers back home safely and reunite with their families.”
These words made the eyes of all the generals present turn red.
Generals Ye Tang and Gao Yu both stood up, raised their hands to Liang Qi and said, "General, I am willing to lead five thousand brothers to lead the enemy army into the valley!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several generals stood up and asked Liang Qi for military leave in unison.
What Shangguan Yuanrang was most afraid of was that he would be outclassed by others. Seeing so many generals asking for military service and leaving life and death behind, how could he have the nerve to stay out of the matter?
well! He sighed inwardly. In my life, the person I admire the most is the King, but the person who eats me the most is Liang Qi.
He couldn't help but glared at Liang Qi, waved angrily at the generals who volunteered, and said, "Everyone, sit down! Are you going? Can you complete the mission?"
"General Yuan Rang..."
"I'll go!" Shangguan Yuanrang squeezed out two words through his teeth.
Wow!
As soon as these words came out, all the generals who had invited Miao sat down and did not even argue with Shangguan Yuanrang. Firstly, no one can compete with him, and secondly, no one thinks that their ability is superior to Shangguan Yuanrang.
