"If the rumors about the immortals are dispelled, the enemy's momentum will collapse without a fight, and the subsequent battle will turn around. The enemy will no longer have any favorable conditions, and will be caught in an extremely difficult tug-of-war."

"So, we must—"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Sanshi struck the west bank of the Hongze River with his fingers as firmly as a rock, and every word he uttered echoed in their minds like a thunderbolt.

"Cross the Hongze River four times, and march straight to Meishan!"

Huanglong in "directly attacking Huanglong" is a place name, which Chen Sanshi changed to Meishan to make it easier for them to understand.

Four crossings!

"A brilliant plan, no, a divine strategy, this is a divine strategy!"

Xu Wencai gasped, realizing what was happening immediately.

He was confident in his expertise in military strategy and had spent many years studying famous battles from over a thousand years ago.

At the beginning of the Mingzhou Rebellion, he was able to keep up with the adults' pace, but after the Third Crossing, he became somewhat dazed, and now he was even more confused. It wasn't until he heard the words "Fourth Crossing" that he woke up as if by a sudden enlightenment.

He explained to the others who were still confused: "Most of our forces are currently chasing us from behind. The only place that can send troops to support us the fastest is the Red Eyebrow Army's headquarters in Meishan Prefecture!"

"But after fighting for so long, Meishan Prefecture City won't have many troops left, at most no more than 15,000, maybe even a few thousand."

"Therefore, once they divide their forces to provide support, it will leave the main camp vulnerable. We can take this opportunity to cross the Hongze River to the west four times and then directly attack Meishan Prefecture!"

"Liang Jinian is a Confucian scholar, not even as good as a soldier. He doesn't have any high-level martial artists around him. As long as we break in, he will only have one path left: death!"

"Once Liang Jinian dies, we will get our hands on the Secret Weapon Book."

"Not only will we be saved, but it will also be of great help to the battle situation in Minnesota!"

"This is what the adults are talking about."

"Cross the Hongze River four times, and march straight to Meishan!"

but……

Chen Sanshi hadn't mentioned it before because there was another very serious problem that required careful planning.

They crossed the Hongze River four times and marched straight to Meishan!

The others gradually came to understand after Xu Wencai's detailed explanation.

Their pupils trembled visibly.

What do you mean?

This means they're not planning to run away anymore.

And directly...

Winning the battle?!

original.

Their three thousand men burned the grain and fodder. No matter what happens next, as long as they don't defect to the enemy, they will be at the top of the merit list at the end of this battle. If they can also destroy the Red Eyebrow Army's main camp and seize the legendary secret manual, they will be able to achieve great things.

Wouldn't that be...

Heavenly power!

A true masterpiece!

Three thousand men influenced the course of a major battle involving a combined force of three hundred thousand men on both sides!

Every single person is a gift from Heaven!

This is not wishful thinking!

After understanding the plan, everyone agreed that it was feasible.

"What are you waiting for?!"

Lu Shuhua stood up: "General Manager Chen, when do we set off?"

"We'll set off at 5 AM tomorrow."

Chen Sanshi pointed to the map and assigned the tasks: "This time, General Yu and I will stay behind with a thousand men to cover the rear. Then, Xu Wencai, you will lead Brother Lu and the others to cross the Hongze River to the west. Hide at the intersection of the Hongze and Wushui Rivers. Once we receive the signal for the burning mountains in our direction, you will immediately cross the Wushui River and head straight for Meishan Prefecture. You must capture Liang Jinian as quickly as possible and seize the Heavenly Book. Brother Lu, Brother Xie, and Brother Yan, if you trust me, then follow Xu Wencai's command!"

"it is good!"

Lu Shuhua nodded emphatically: "Commander Chen, don't worry, we'll listen to you and hand over command to Mr. Xu, but..."

There's something I don't understand.

Xie Sishu picked up the conversation, saying the second half: "Why do you and Lieutenant General Yu need to stay behind for this feint attack? You two are currently the most skilled in martial arts among us. Isn't it a bit much for you both to stay behind..."

"It doesn't matter."

Chen Sanshi said in a deep voice, "The Red Eyebrow Army was originally a bandit. No matter how many people they have gathered in recent years, there are only a few high-level martial artists. After they cross the river, the highest level of the generals left in Meishan Prefecture will not exceed the Transformation Realm. It has been almost half a year. Brother Lu, I saw you practicing martial arts yesterday. You are almost at the Transformation Realm, right?"

"Exactly."

Lu Shuhua did not deny it: "We're just one step away, and we should be able to break through tonight!"

"That's no problem."

Chen Sanshi said, "If we encounter another general at the Transformation Realm, I'll leave it to you."

"General! Why wasn't I sent to cover the rear!"

Bai Tingzhi asked with a puzzled look, "You and Lieutenant General Yu are the commander and the general, respectively. What are you two doing staying here?"

"I have my own arrangements."

Chen Sanshi said, "Make the arrangements immediately. There's no time to explain anymore."

After he finished speaking, he picked up his spear and left alone, disappearing without a trace in no time.

"This……"

Lu Shuhua and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Why do I feel weird?"

"Yes."

Why did those two stay behind to launch a feint attack?

"No need!"

"..."

Yu Song remained silent, almost lying face down on the map, his movements somewhat clumsy as he carefully examined it.

"Mr. Xu, do you know why this arrangement was made?"

"..."

"Because this is not a feint at all!"

Xu Wencai suddenly realized something, and tears streamed down his face. He muttered, "What benevolence! To have such a wise ruler, I, Xu, have no regrets in this life! But I absolutely cannot do this, I absolutely cannot take such a great risk!"

"what are you saying?"

Lu Shuhua and the others were even more confused.

"I can't stop the adults, I have to find someone who can!"

Xu Wencai looked around, and then hurriedly headed towards the rear, where the main force was resting.

"Fuck your mother!"

Wang Zhi slapped Feng Yong on the head: "Last time I was the one who killed more. Ten taels of silver, hand it over now, don't try to renege on your debt."

"fart!"

Feng Yong retorted defiantly, "I only killed those who had reached the Bone Refining stage; one of them is worth ten of yours!"

"..."

After the battle with Jia Youtian, the soldiers took a break and settled their gambling debts with each other, which was a way of making the best of a bad situation. After all, all they had to do was obey orders.

Over the past six months, no matter how panicked the rest of the soldiers were, they remained relatively calm.

"Lord Wang!"

Xu Wencai interrupted them: "Could we speak in private for a moment?"

"Can't you just say what's on your mind?"

Wang Zhi looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed, "Okay!"

The two went to a secluded corner.

With a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, Wang Zhi asked, "Old Xu, what's wrong?"

"Lord Wang!"

Xu Wencai asked, "You must be Tang Ruoshan, the former commander of the Xuanwu Camp?"
