Transmigration begins with archery training

"

Chen Sanshi had to take the time to explain to them.

Again.

His position was too low, his power too small, he had never even commanded a major battle, and he had no prestige whatsoever.

Convincing everyone through explanation was something he had to do.

"Have you forgotten what the enemy's main forces are doing right now?"

"More than half of them are in the western region, preparing to welcome the Yanzhou army. The majority of the rest are attacking Yangchun Prefecture. In addition, there are 50,000 troops pursuing us. The forces near Yingzui Mountain, and even in Jinquan Prefecture, will definitely not exceed 2,000, and they are completely unprepared!"

"If we go there now, we can not only temporarily shake off our pursuers, but we might also burn their granaries! This will increase the cost for them to fight our army in the future!"

"Don't worry, General Zhao on the west side can attest to the fact that our troops are weak. You can see for yourselves if you don't believe me."

Everyone was dubious.

Finally, Yu Song was willing to accept the result only after seeing the intelligence sent by Zhao Wuji through the gyrfalcon: "Alright, then let's do as Commander Chen said, cross Hongze for the second time and head straight for Jinquan Prefecture. Anyway, staying here is a death sentence. If we succeed, we will join up with Commander Zhao. With a Xuanxiang Realm general, it's like having another way to survive!"

Zhao Wuji...

Chen Sanshi sighed.

The journey is long, and they probably won't have a chance to meet up with Zhao Wuji.

But I can't say it now.

The only way is to get them out in a way that they are willing to believe in.

"set off!"

"Wait for Lieutenant General Yu, we cannot leave yet."

Chen Sanshi said, "We also need to leave a group of men behind to launch a feint attack and delay the crossing of the river. Once we get ashore, the warhorses will come back to find us, and they won't be able to catch up with us anymore!"

Lieutenant General Yu scanned the remaining people: "Who among you is willing to go?"

"I go!"

Bai Tingzhi stepped forward without hesitation: "I am willing to cover for General Chen!"

"It's a feint, not a real last-ditch effort!"

Chen Sanshi cautioned, "Just make some noise every now and then, don't actually die here!"

He was still a little worried.

Bai Tingzhi and Zhu Tong were both considered "brainless".

Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu are currently unlikely to be willing.

"My lord, I'll stay!"

Amidst the astonished gazes of Wang Zhi and the others, Xu Wencai stepped forward somewhat nervously: "Sir, with me here, I have a way to make them believe that we are really going to attack Luotian Pass. You can just go forward with confidence and don't need to look back!"

"Lazybones, when did you become so bold?"

Zhu Tong said in disbelief.

"Old Zhu, I, Xu, have never been a coward who fears death!"

Xu Wencai retorted, "Now is the time for me to make a difference!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Tong patted his chest and said, "I'll stay here with you and be your bodyguard. As long as I'm alive, no one will be able to touch a hair on your head!"

"Bai Tingzhi".

Chen Sanshi instructed, "If you trust me, from now on, you and your men must respect Xu Wencai's opinions. He'll be fine."

"As ordered!"

Bai Tingzhi clasped his hands and said, "With the general's words, Mr. Xu is my commander-in-chief. Everyone, listen to my command and follow me to attack Luotian Pass!"

"Thanks for your hard work."

Chen Sanshi himself cannot go to cover the rear. If he leaves, most of these people will go to find Zhao Wuji after crossing the river and die on the way.

They set off immediately and crossed the Hongze River for the second time.

"horse!"

"It's our horse!"

"..."

The soldiers were overjoyed to see the warhorses waiting on the riverbank. After a quick count, they found that there were not only no fewer horses, but more than a hundred more. They wondered where Chihiro had gotten them from, which was quite amazing.

"Hurry up, don't waste time!"

Chen Sanshi shouted.

Mounting their warhorses, the troops swiftly departed.

Under Xu Wencai's command, they successfully attracted most of the enemy's attention, making them believe that they wanted to force their way through Luotian Pass into the Great Wilderness to escape.

But by the time the pursuers caught up, the group was already hundreds of miles away near Eagle Beak Mountain. In the eyes of the enemy, these three thousand people were clearly approaching Luotian Pass just a moment ago, but they couldn't find a single one of them, as if they had vanished into thin air.

……

"Disappeared?"

Dong An frowned as he looked at the latest news.

"Strange, where else could we go?"

Xiang Tian stared at the map, utterly perplexed: "They can fly?"

"Fly my ass! We've been tricked!"

Dong An quickly realized: "They must be crossing the river a second time, trying to take advantage of the weakened central forces to maneuver around Eagle Beak Mountain, then pass through Jinquan Prefecture to join up with Zhao Wuji and the others who are in exile. Wait... how many troops are still stationed in Jinquan Prefecture?"

"A little over two thousand,"

Xiang Tian recalled, "The vast majority are here with us, a portion went west to pursue Zhao Wuji and his group, and the rest are just laborers who have no fighting ability."

"Damn it! The provisions! Enough for our army, plus the provisions for the Western Qi army for a year!"

Dong An commanded, "Quickly, order all the troops east of the Hongze River to assemble and immediately cross the river to the west, then take the shortest route to Jinquan Prefecture! Also, notify General Zhong of the Western Qi Kingdom and order him to dispatch another 10,000 men to the southwest. Make sure to intercept Chen Sanshi and the others before they meet up with Zhao Wuji. Although the fall of Wutong Prefecture won't be a huge problem, it will still be a troublesome matter!"

"Okay, I understand."

Xiang Tian was completely confused and didn't bother to ask questions; he quickly did as instructed.

"Chen Sanshi, interesting!"

Dong An took out a brush and determined their current marching route on the map. Looking at this bold decision, a strange unease rose in his heart. This feeling...

Nearly thirty years ago!

He appeared when he was competing with Fang Qingyun for the title of champion!

The previous Fang Qingyun was still alive.

Could it be that we're about to see another Fang Qingyun emerge?!

"call……"

Dong An took a deep breath to calm himself down: "No, I can't possibly lose to him. If I lose to a greenhorn, what's the point of my life!"

war.

It's like a chessboard.

The two commanders were like two chess players, but they could never meet.

Only after the opponent makes a move can you know how to respond.

The current situation is that the opponent is at a disadvantage, but has found an opportunity and must be dealt with quickly.

"So what if the supplies are destroyed!"

"This small group of men must die!"

……

"The grain supplies must not be destroyed, or they will be executed!"

Meishan.

After receiving the delayed intelligence, Liang Jinian pounded his fist on the table repeatedly: "A year! Enough provisions for a year! If it's really destroyed, how am I supposed to explain this to the State of Qi!"
