Having already made a preliminary judgment, Huan Jue immediately ordered his scouts to go out and disperse to places tens of miles away. There was only one task, which was to measure the hardness of the ground where Zhao Jun passed by, and then to gauge the strength of Zhao Jun.
But the army did not stop, but continued to move forward.
"Grandpa Huan, I once remembered that when Sun Bin of Qi State faced Pang Juan of Wei State, he used the method of increasing troops and reducing the number of soldiers, causing Pang Juan to misjudge the strength of the Qi Army, so that he was surrounded by the Qi Army and was defeated.
The fate of death, and the current situation, could it be that Li Mu did the opposite and used the illusion of dividing his troops to make our army hesitate and not dare to pursue it?" Bai Ling said hesitantly.
"The possibility you mentioned, Ling'er, is not impossible. That's why I didn't ask the army to stop. If we were timid just because of the discovery just now, it would make Zhao Jun laugh." Huan Jue said.
"The military formation is really too complicated. If you are not careful, there is a danger of the whole army overturning. My previous thoughts were too naive." Bai Ling said with a heavy heart.
She once believed that her talents and abilities were enough to become a qualified general. However, when she actually witnessed the war, she realized that she had taken it too much for granted.
Just this current situation is not something she can handle.
"The way military formations change is inherently capricious. Before the war breaks out, no one can be sure that they will be the victor," Huan Jue said.
"Every slight change is enough to determine the life and death of countless people. It is really too heavy." Bai Ling said.
"It's just that you have seen too little. As time goes by, you will become calmer when faced with the current situation." Of course Huan Jue would not hit Bai Ling at this time, although he never thought of letting Bai Ling
Become a general.
Bai Ling's status at this time is already the best for a woman.
"Grandpa Huan, what are you going to do? If Zhao Jun is really what Grandpa Huan has judged," Bai Ling said.
"Continue to pursue." Huan Jue said calmly.
"Continue to pursue? Grandpa Huan, isn't he worried about being ambushed by Zhao Jun?" Bai Ling asked confused.
"That's just a possibility. I can't let the military strategy formulated by the king fail just because of something that may happen. If we stop the pursuit now, we can certainly ensure our own safety, but Li Mu can return to Zhaodu unharmed. This is not what we want.
The desired result." Huan Jue said.
"But, if that's the case, wouldn't Li Mu's goal have not been achieved?" Bai Ling said.
"If that's the case, Li Mu's goal was indeed not achieved, but he can only be considered as not winning, and we are considered as losing." Huan Jue said.
"It's still too dangerous after all." Bai Ling said worriedly.
"Ling'er, you are wrong. In fact, the situation we are facing now is not as bad as you think." Huan Jue said.
"Grandpa Huan, this is not the time for you to comfort me." Bai Ling forced a smile.
"Ling'er has grown up and is no longer the little girl who needs to be coaxed by me. How can I say those useless words at this time? My words are well-founded." Huan Jue said.
"How do you say this?" Bai Ling tightened the reins of his horse and asked.
"Li Mu can plot against me, Huanjue, but he cannot plot against me, the king." Huanjue said.
"Your Majesty?" Bai Ling looked puzzled.
"Perhaps Li Mu is really plotting against me, Huanjue, but what if I, Huanjue, fall into his trap?" Huanjue said this, already showing a calm smile.
"Li Mu is indeed more skilled than me. He can also calculate me, but he can only calculate me. He has forgotten the king. Even if there is an ambush in front, what does it matter?" Huan Jue spoke with confidence.
Complete.
"After your Majesty learns of the situation here, he will definitely rush here as quickly as possible. By then, whether Li Mu has surrounded me or I have surrounded Li Mu, we still don't know." Huan Jue continued.
"Grandpa Huan, are you going to use yourself as bait?" Bai Ling looked at Huan Jue with a shocked look on his face.
"Li Mu dares to use this dangerous trick, why don't I, Huanjue, dare to accompany him?" Huanjue said with a sneer.
"Grandpa Huan, this is a gamble." Bai Ling said with a complicated expression.
"Ling'er, you are right. I am just betting that I know the king better than Li Mu." Huan Jue said.
"The king will definitely appear at a time that Li Mu doesn't expect and in a place that Li Mu doesn't expect." Huan Yan said.
······
An unknown place in Zhao State.
"The range of the Qin army's scouts has doubled, and they are still measuring the hardness of the ground?" In a valley, Li Mu asked the commander of the guards around him.
"Yes, general, did the Qin army discover something?" the guard said hesitantly.
"Huan Jue is indeed a veteran who has been famous since the times. It is really difficult to hide some things from such a veteran," Li Mu said.
"General, if the Qin army withdraws right now..." The guard commander hesitated, and then said: "Oh, the general is overthinking. If the Qin army retreats, we can't be considered a loser."
"You are wrong. The situation our Zhao State is facing right now. If we cannot win here and capture Huan Jue and the 50,000 Qin troops under his command, we will be defeated. For us, failure to win means defeat.
"Li Mu said.
"Fortunately, Huan Jue is also a famous general when he succeeds, and he is also a famous general when he fails. With his wisdom as a famous general, he can see the traps we have laid for him and the Qin army. However, his courage as a famous general allows him to dare to rush into us.
The trap gives him the feat of being able to break through the net without killing the fish."
"And now, isn't that what he is doing? The Qin army has no intention of stopping or retreating." Li Mu said with a smile.
The 70,000 Zhao army side cavalry faced the 50,000 Qin army heavy armored troops. The advantage lies with me. However, since Huanjue has discovered some clues, the plan to use the geographical advantage as a killer weapon cannot be carried out. Fortunately, 70,000 troops
The strength of the side rider is enough. Li Mu said to himself in his heart.
Although it can't be perfect, as long as it can defeat the 50,000 Qin troops, everything will be worth it. It just costs more casualties.
In the hinterland of the State of Zhao, could Li Mu lure the enemy deep into the country and eat Huan Ji and his 50,000 Qin soldiers, or could Huan Ji use his body as a bait to survive and ride on the side of the Zhao army?
Surrounded by the enemy, waiting for help, a center has blossomed?
Suddenly, in a place not far from Zhao's capital, a war that would determine how many years Zhao could last was about to break out.
At this time, in the direction coming from Yanmen, not far from Feidi, the vanguard of the main force of the Qin army had already arrived.
