Chapter 773 The Spiritual Army’s Plan
Ah!? As soon as these words came out, all the generals were shocked.
The deputy general couldn't help but said: "How dare Su Yi plan this? You know, even if the Allied forces are cut off from food and grass, their overall strength is still superior to the Qin army."
Huang Zu shook his head: "In a war, the key to determining the outcome is the strength of the troops. It is only a small factor."
"The Qin army at this time has the right time, location and people, so we cannot compete with them."
"As for the mountain battle, are you sure you can defeat Su Yi? But Su Yi is sure he can beat us, isn't he?"
"This man has always been cunning in his military use. The two generals of the Jin Dynasty were defeated by him because they fell into his trap."
"This..." The deputy general swallowed.
Ye Gui curled his lips and said, "Huang Shuai's words like this will not only enhance other people's ambitions, but also destroy his own prestige."
Huang Zu glanced at him and said seriously: "It's not that I don't want to fight, but I want to assess the situation and not make mistakes in decision-making, which will harm the soldiers of the three armies."
"Now that Qin has declared war on the four kingdoms, we are locked in Qin. During this period of time, it is impossible to have follow-up supplies. To put it bluntly, even if we go to join the Wu army, we will end up with heavy losses and depleted food and grass.
Will the entire army still be annihilated as a result?"
This is true, because the spiritual army has almost enough food and grass.
Ye Gui lost his voice, and the deputy general said again: "Then Huang Shuai just..."
"It's just to give Sergeant Wu a thought, so that they don't have to travel in vain." Huang Zu said helplessly.
At this moment, a general walked in quickly.
Seeing him, Huang Zu directly changed the current topic and asked concisely: "How is the fortification?"
"It's almost done." Chian Jiang returned.
"Hurry up and complete this task before the Wu army is destroyed!"
"clear!"
After saying this? Huang Zu looked at Ye Gui again: "How many cavalry do we have?"
"About thirteen thousand." Ye Gui returned truthfully.
"Kill the horses and make them into portable dried meat." Huang Zu ordered directly.
"Ah?" Ye Gui said unwillingly: "But Huang Shuai? War horses are hard-won..."
"No matter how precious we are, are the lives of the soldiers important? The most important thing is to get out of Qin alive! If the people are dead, why do we need war horses!" Huang Zu interrupted him.
"Yes..." Ye Gui could only respond.
At this time, another general said: "Huang Shuai? There is one more thing? The weather is getting colder and colder, and many soldiers are sick? They are depressed and bedridden? And the condition is getting worse and worse."
"Where is the military doctor?" Huang Zu asked casually.
The general said: "The medicinal herbs have almost been used up, and we have no follow-up material support."
Hearing this, Huang Zu took a deep breath, thought for a while and said: "Isolate the sick soldiers temporarily? Boil more hot water every day? Sprinkle some broken rice? Cook it into rice porridge and see if you can survive it? Don't let it happen.
The condition has expanded."
"Yes!" the general responded.
Huang Zu looked around again and said: "Do you see? This is the time occupied by the Qin army? Has King Qin already thought about the winter war? The allies have no winter clothes? How to keep out the cold? Fortunately, it is not the coldest season now? Once
When it snows heavily, it’s not as simple as getting sick!”
"Looking at the entire battle situation, this war? The Allies have already lost..."
In fact, in the battle to attack Qin, Huang Zu made no mistakes in his military command.
If the war situation were pushed back, when the Allied forces entered Shanyuguan, he would have left behind 30,000 troops, as well as the spirit general Bai Qin to serve as a station and transportation route.
This is absolutely no problem. Even if someone wants to attack Shanyu Pass, the 30,000 troops, given the danger of the mountain pass, are enough to hold on for many days, and the Allied forces will have time to return to support.
But the bad thing is that Shanyuguan has never experienced a war at all, so Bai Qin opened the mountain pass directly and welcomed the Xuan army in.
This was the biggest turning point in the entire war.
But it seemed at the time that Bai Qin regarded Xuan Jun as an ally and was completely unprepared.
This can only be said that King Xuan made this move too well and plotted against all the countries.
On the Lingjun side, Huang Zu decisively gave up the idea of fighting the Qin army again, and just wanted to take his soldiers and evacuate Qin quickly.
After the news of Wu Jun spread, Huangfu Ye had been waiting for the Ling Army's movements so that he could respond and break the siege in one battle. This wait lasted three or four days.
If he doesn't break through, Su Yi will be even less anxious. The longer the time goes by, the easier it will be to destroy Wu's army as they run out of food and grass.
It was not until the morning of the fourth day that the generals of Wu Army finally couldn't sit still.
In the main tent, his deputy general took the lead in saying: "Our sentries have sent out military information. Judging from the time, Huang Zu should have received the news. The Ling Army is less than two hundred miles away. Logically speaking, there is some movement, but
Now……"
Everyone frowned when they heard this.
Xiang Moxin spoke bluntly and immediately said: "Isn't this Huang Zu pretending not to see him and deliberately not saving him?"
"This...isn't possible, we are all allies..." a general said.
"Yes, with such a distance, Huang Zu has no reason not to send troops to support..."
Having said that, one can hear a lot of worry in everyone's tone.
At this time, Huangfu Ye was actually basically determined, because from a military perspective, Huang Zu knew that everyone was short of food and grass. If the Ling Army wanted to support him, he would definitely send troops as soon as possible. At this time, it was impossible to delay.
pull.
There has been no movement so far, which can only mean that the Spirit Army has no intention of moving at all.
Thinking of this, Huangfu Ye's face turned ugly. He closed his eyes slightly and thought about what the generals would say: "Okay, let's stop arguing. It seems we can only rely on ourselves to get out of the valley.
"
He directly denied the Ling Army. When people heard this, they were somewhat unwilling to believe it. Some people held a glimmer of hope and said: "General, could it be that something happened to the sentry cavalry on the way, causing the letter to not be delivered in time?"
No, let’s wait and see?”
"Haha." Huangfu Ye glanced at him and asked: "General Hu thinks that under such circumstances, we sacrificed thousands of soldiers to finally send out the sentry cavalry. The soldiers who went out will delay the military situation? Moreover, three cavalry broke out.
, even if one person had an accident, the other two also had an accident?"
"This..." General Hu was speechless.
Yes, this possibility is extremely slim and can almost be ignored.
"Stop taking chances!" Huangfu Ye said angrily: "Huang Zu's decision not to send troops was beyond our expectations! I shouldn't have counted on them in the first place!"
The generals were in commotion again.
Immediately afterwards, there was a fire, and someone immediately said: "This is unreasonable! Huang Zu acted like this! He didn't regard us as allies at all!"
"We are so close, but we don't support you! The spirit army is extremely shameless!"
