Chapter 918: Several Years of Preparation, Just to Destroy Qi! If You Talk About This, I Won’t Be Sleepy Anymore!

Ying Chengyu was walking in front, his mind rapidly thinking about the next strategic plan.

Zhao Gao followed behind, his legs weak and filled with anxiety.

Although Zhao Gao knew very well that Ying Chengyu's status in Da Qin had no reason to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country.

But what if?

What if Ying Chengyu has a mental illness?

"Meet the coach!"

A burst of uniform shouts woke up Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao saw that he had entered a military tent at some point. Su Jiao, Zhang Han, Ge Ping and other generals who had stayed at the Yishui Great Wall were all listed in front of him.

After Ying Chengyu returned the gift, he said straight to the point: "The merchants of Qi have already agreed to all my conditions."

"This strategy has been accomplished."

Suddenly, the eyes of Su Jiao and all the generals lit up, and the tent was filled with cheers.

"Great! Great! The coach is really good at lobbying!"

"Hahaha~ From now on, our army will be able to get an extra amount of money every month! Commander! Will this money be counted as war profits and transported to the rear, or will our army directly...hehe, distribute it to the soldiers?"

"It's a pity that in order to facilitate the implementation of the plan, our army cannot offer higher conditions. Otherwise, the general will lead his army to seal Pingshu City, forcing the Qi army to transport food and supplies through merchants. In this way, our army will not know what to do. How much food do you earn?”

Zhao Gao:? ? ?

Looking at the happy generals in the tent, Zhao Gaoren felt numb.

Is it really appropriate to discuss collaborating with the enemy and treason in a big tent like this?

But Zhao Gao's worries all dissipated.

With all the high-level generals in the army participating, and with Ying Chengxuan's bloodline and reputation as the basis, no matter what Ying Chengxuan wants to do, Zhao Gao is out of danger.

After letting the generals cheer for a few breaths, Ying Chengyu raised his right hand and all the generals shut up.

Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Although this strategy has been accomplished, our army's overall strategy can no longer be developed according to this strategy."

"This general has ordered Captain Peng Yue to stop penetrating into the hinterland of Qi State, and the general has ordered those waiting to stop making noises at the head of Qi State."

"The military strategy for this war must undergo drastic changes!"

"So even if this strategy is completed, you don't think that this strategy can earn much money for our army."

Su Jiao asked with confusion: "Why is this?"

"The commander-in-chief used Qi merchants and Qi military merchants on the front line of the Qi army to intensify the pursuit of interests by the Qi army officers and soldiers, and intensified the Qi army's grassroots soldiers' desire to see gains and forget their loyalty."

"He then ordered Captain Peng Yue's troops in the rear of Qi State to disguise themselves as common people of Qi State and harass the dignitaries of Qi State, and ordered those waiting to guide the powerful people of Qi State to embezzle the rewards of the Qi army officers and soldiers. The combination of the two intensified the conflict between the powerful people of Qi State and the common people of Qi State. The conflicts among the Qi soldiers on the front line further aroused dissatisfaction with Qi State. "

"Our army only needs to wait quietly, and it will be seen that the morale of the Qi army is unstable, the top and bottom are not focused, and there may even be a rebellion by bombing the camp!"

"The commander-in-chief was already planning this when he took office as the left prime minister of Qi State. The last general and all the commanders also thought that the commander-in-chief's plan was a brilliant one."

"Now that this strategy has worked, why does the coach give up again?"

Zhao Gao finally felt relieved after hearing this.

really! This official said that Lord Chang'an will never be a traitor to the enemy!

The fundamental purpose of Lord Chang'an's business with Hou Wang was to further aggravate the internal conflicts in Qi!

In order to implement this strategy, Lord Chang'an had already used his identity as Zuo Xiang to make plans as early as the battle between Qin and Qi to destroy Chu.

The Lord of Chang'an deserves to be called the Lord of Chang'an!

Ying Chengyu said calmly: "There are no mistakes or omissions in this strategy, and it has not been exposed. Even if the general wants to adjust the military strategy, he will continue the deal with Hou Wang so that it can still be implemented when Qin and Qi fight again in the future. This policy.”

"The reason why I have adjusted my military strategy is that it is no longer suitable for our army's current strategic goals."

Facing the puzzled looks of all the generals, Ying Chengyu spoke slowly: "I just received the king's order."

"The king ordered our army to make the world mistakenly believe that our army is going to attack Dai, weaken Yan, and destroy Qi in this battle!"

As soon as the words fell, the room was filled with silence.

After a few breaths, Su Jiao opened his round eyes and asked, "Misunderstood?"

"We don't really want to attack Dai, weaken Yan, and overthrow Qi, but we still want the world to think that our army is going to attack Dai, weaken Yan, and overthrow Qi?"

Why are these words so convoluted!

Ying Cheng nodded and said, "Of course!"

"I don't have much idea about this. If you guys have any clever ideas, please report them to me!"

There was another ten breaths of silence in the big tent, and then Ge Ping suddenly raised his hands and shouted: "The general thought that he could lead an army of 50,000 people south to attack Rao'an City of Qi to show our army's intention to destroy Qi!"

Su Jiao was speechless and immediately refuted: "What reputation does Lieutenant Ge have that can make Qi afraid?"

"If Captain Ge leads 50,000 troops south to Rao'an City, it will only make Qi think that our army is going to cut off Qi's supplies again."

"I believe that if we want to make the world think that our army intends to destroy Qi, the only way is for the commander to personally lead the army south."

"No matter how many troops the commander leads southward, as long as the commander goes south, people in the world will definitely think that our army has the intention of subjugating Qi!"

Who are you?

Ge Ping?

How many people in the world know who Ge Ping is today?

In terms of deterrence, you, Ge Ping, can only be ranked in the fourth echelon among the current Da Qin generals.

If you really lead 50,000 troops southward, not to mention making the people of the world doubt that our army has the intention to destroy Qi, the people of the world will even doubt whether you have the ability to break Rao'an City!

In Su Jiao's view, only Ying Chengyu has sufficient deterrence!

Zhang Han immediately shook his head: "No!"

"If our army wants to make the world mistakenly believe that our army intends to destroy Qi, then we must not withdraw in a hurry."

"The coach needs to stay at least a few months, or even half a year, on the battlefield between Qin and Qi, so that people in the world will really think that our army really wants to defeat Qi."

"Of course, once the coach stays on the battlefield between Qin and Qi for a long time, the three armies of Dai, Qi and Yan will confirm that the coach is far away from the main force of our army. At that time, our army will surely usher in a crazy counterattack by the coalition forces!"

"The strength of our army is inherently inferior to that of the enemy. The reason why our army has been able to win many times is because the commander is well-prepared, anticipates the enemy first, and gives orders to the earth. Once the commander stays on the battlefield between Qin and Qi for a long time, our army may be defeated. Worry!”

In Zhang Han's view, Ying Chengyu does have a very strong deterrent power, but this deterrence power should not be used in trivial matters such as disguised strategy.

Today, the Qin army does not have a significant advantage compared to the coalition forces, and Ying Chengyu does not have the qualifications to be willful.

If the coach doesn't follow the main force, doesn't this simply provide the enemy with an opportunity to defeat the main force of the Qin army?

After Su Jiao thought for a moment, he nodded in agreement: "What Doctor Zhang said makes sense!"

"Since the coach can't move lightly, I will ask for a fight!"

"General Yumo..."

Strategies were proposed one after another.

But these strategies did not even need to be criticized by Ying Chengyu personally, and they would have been criticized to pieces by other generals.

If Su Jiao, Zhang Han and other generals were given a clear goal, asking them to break the formation and seize the city or block the enemy from defending the city, they would definitely be able to complete Ying Chengyu's order.

But asking them to come up with a strategy that would make the world mistakenly think that they were going to attack Qi, but not actually attack Qi, was really a bit difficult.

After all, who is a serious general who would think about such things?

After a long time, the generals in the tent were thirsty, and the frequency of suggestions became less and less, and eventually they even fell silent!

Ying Chengyu sighed softly: "This strategy of my colleagues in the court is a strategy to fool the people of the world!"

"It is indeed too difficult to formulate such a strategy."

"You guys, thank you for your trouble."

Su Jiao shook his head tiredly and disappointedly and said: "I don't have to worry about trouble, I just worry about not being able to help the coach."

"I really don't know how to do it without attacking and destroying the Qi State, and at the same time making the world mistakenly think that our army intends to attack and destroy the Qi State!"

"Commander, since the DPRK has given such an order, haven't all the colleagues in the DPRK given the full order?"

Ying Chengyu was about to shake his head, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and said thoughtfully: "You are right!"

"If this matter is really extremely difficult, the court will definitely give a comprehensive plan. If there is no comprehensive plan, the king will not issue such a royal order."

"Perhaps I am the one who got into trouble."

"The King's request is not that difficult to fulfill at all!"

"As long as our army attacks Qi with the determination to destroy the country, it will naturally make people in the world mistakenly think that our army intends to attack Qi, and this does not require any further guidance from the DPRK."

"Our army only needs to withdraw from the Qi State before it is destroyed, and naturally it will not attack the Qi State. The king can even use the excuse of disobeying the king's order to send the general to prison and lure other countries to attack our Qin State. Then secretly change the generals at the critical moment and repeat the old battle of Changping! "

The more Su Jiao, Zhang Han and others listened, the more reasonable they became.

If not, why did the DPRK and China not give them specific military strategies to complete this order?

This is obviously because in the eyes of the court officials at the rear, this strategic goal is not as complicated as they thought just now, and they only need to prepare based on the idea of ​​destroying Qi.

When it comes to destroying the country, how can the court officials in the rear be qualified to formulate specific military strategies for Ying Chengyu!

Su Jiao immediately looked at Zhao Gao and asked, "Lieutenant General Zhao Lang, does Chao Zhong really think so?"

Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment when he was suddenly asked by Su Jiao.

Zhao Gao intuitively felt that something was wrong with Ying Chengyu's analysis, but Zhao Gao couldn't figure out what was wrong.

While pondering, Zhao Gao spoke slowly: "When we agreed on this policy, I was in the Imperial Study Room."

"At that time, I did not hear any courtiers mention formulating a military strategy for Lord Chang'an, nor did I hear any courtiers say it would be difficult to implement this strategy."

Zhao Gao was quite conservative and only talked about his own experiences.

But Zhao Gao's words further strengthened the generals' trust in Ying Chengyu's analysis.

Ge Ping couldn't wait to ask: "Dare you ask the coach!"

"If our army intends to destroy Qi, what should our army do?"

"Destroy Qi?" Ying Chengyu suddenly became energetic, and his eyes flashed unconsciously. He quickly scanned the Kunyu map for a week and then said in a low voice: "Maiqiu (near today's Shanghe County)!"

"If our army intends to destroy Qi, Maiqiu City is the best entry point!"

"This general will recall Captain Li Xin, Captain Qiang Huai and other generals who are good at defeating the enemy in a flash. Only a few troops and horses will be left to guard the Yishui Great Wall, and then the defense of the Yishui Great Wall will be handed over to Deputy General Ben."

"This general will lead 200,000 soldiers and horses back to the territory of Daqin from Yiguan. They will go straight to the Yellow River via Gaoyang, Hejian and Guanjin in Daqin. After crossing the river, they will rush to the southeast and quickly capture Maiqiu City in Qi State."

"After leaving a stable general to blockade Maiqiu City and stabilize our army's food routes, the army continued to launch blitzes to the southeast without stopping!"

Ying Chengxuan slapped Linzi City on Xiang Kun's map with his right hand, and shouted in a solemn voice: "In this way, our army will be able to advance within 200 miles of Linzi City before Qi State can react, and threaten Qi State's capital at any time! "

"By then, even if Dai Wu'an Jun finds out that I am not in Du Kang, the Qi army under his command will be in a panic. Once the Qi army, which occupies the main force of the coalition forces, is in chaos, Dai Wu'an Jun will be unable to take care of himself and will not be able to attack our Great Qin."

"Even if Dai Wu'an Jun really attacks our Great Qin, I believe that the ability of Deputy General Wang Ben is enough to stop such a chaotic army!"

Thinking about the strategy of pretending to destroy Qi, Ying Chengjiao and the generals in the tent thought about it for most of the day and couldn't come up with a plan.

But if it's just to destroy Qi?

Then Ying Chengjiao won't be sleepy!

Su Jiao, Ge Ping and other generals became more and more excited as they listened, and finally they all bowed their hands and shouted in a hurry: "I will be the vanguard!"

Zhao Gao: ? ? ?

Generals, are you sure you understand what the strategic goal of this battle is...right?
