Chapter 958 Shortcuts are Difficult (2)

Lu Jinxian was very happy when he became a good disciple, but he still reminded him: "The army will still follow the rules." Yun Ting nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, thank you General."

"Report to General, Commander Xu, please see him." The guards reported outside the door. Everyone looked up, and Lu Jinxian hurriedly said, "Please Commander Xu come in." Xu Qingfeng walked in from outside in green and yellow clothes. Yun Ting looked at Xu Qingfeng curiously and said, "Three Young Master, what kind of clothes are you?" It's not that Yun Ting is rare, but the Mo family army has always been wearing black clothes, which makes people feel mysterious and powerful. At this time, Xu Qingfeng's outfit was really not in line with the temperament of Qilin. Xu Qingfeng rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do I want to wear a night-walking clothes to explore the way?" Night-walking clothes are naturally a good thing, but in broad daylight, he was looking for a slap everywhere.

Lu Jinxian asked in a deep voice: "How did you find anything?"

Xu Qingfeng nodded and said, "The General guessed it well. The birds were flying in the mountain road and there were no people. However, there were a lot of traces of soldiers passing by in the mountains, and... my subordinates could vaguely smell the smell of tung oil." At this point, Xu Qingfeng couldn't help but frown.

"Tung oil?" Lu Jinxian frowned and looked at Ye Li in the lower head and said, "Princess, I'm afraid this shortcut cannot be taken." No matter whether the Chu army planned to set fire to the mountains or not, the Mo family army could not take this risk. As the saying goes, water and fire are ruthless. Now it is winter when everything witheres, and with tung oil to ignite, no matter how they prepare well, as soon as they enter the mountain road, the Chu army will be in a fire and they will be unable to escape. Moreover, Lu Jinxian's understanding of Mo Jingli, in order to eliminate the Mo family army, Mo Jingli will not care whether it will burn several mountains.

Ye Li nodded, Lin Han took out a huge map and spread it on the big table next to him. Lu Jinxian stepped forward and looked at the map in front of him and thought: "If you avoid this road and take a detour, it will probably take a few days to delay." This time, the Chu army used open conspiracy, and let you know that there was an ambush ahead, and the Chu army ignited the fire. If you don't advance, the Chu army can gain more time to seize more territory and occupy more favorable terrain.

Ye Li frowned and looked at the map and asked, "What are General Lu's plans?"

Lu Jinxian thought for a while, rubbed the map under his palm, and said for a while: "Please help from the princess." Ye Li smiled and said, "You and I are both a family. Now the general is the commander of the army. If you have any questions, the general will give you the order." Lu Jinxian nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Please take Yun Ting to lead 200,000 Mo family troops to take the detour."

Ye Li looked up at Lu Jinxian and said, "General Lu still wants to take a small path?" Although this road is close, it is really dangerous. The Great Chu soldiers and horses don't even have to do anything. Just ignite the tung oil buried on the mountain road, it will be enough to make the Mo family army doom. The 200,000 army is not 2,000, and once it catches fire, less than 20% of them will escape.

Lu Jinxian's eyes were leisurely and said lightly: "I remember there is another way to pass here, but it only takes a little effort. Please ask the princess to lead people first. If not, I will lead the army to come from behind." Ye Li stared at the map for a while, and of course she also understood that some places, even the Qilin who had been trained, might not be able to draw intact. Moreover, this map is really small and may not indicate some more secret places. She just asked: "Where will General Lu come out?"

Lu Jinxian pointed to a place on the map. Ye Li pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely be here within seven days. At that time, I will attack the general left and right, and attack the garrison of the Mo family army here. What do you think?" Lu Jinxian looked carefully, couldn't help but smile, and said, "The princess has good eyesight." Ye Li smiled slightly and said, "Leave Commander Xu and Qilin to General Lu." Ye Li also understood that the road Lu Jinxian was going to take would definitely not be smooth, so leaving Xu Qingfeng and Qilin to him was also a guarantee.

Lu Jinxian understood Ye Li's kindness and was very moved. He quickly refused and said, "No, Qilin should still be with the princess..." Ye Li shook his head and said, "General, don't worry, Qin Feng has arrived in the north, so he will naturally make arrangements." Qin Feng is the commander of Qilin, and can directly mobilize all Qilin troops. With him, he will naturally have no worries about no one to use it.

After insisting on Ye Li, Lu Jinxian had to give up. After thanking Ye Li, he said, "Princess, take care of him."

Ye Li smiled indifferently, "People also take care of themselves."

The next morning, Lu Jinxian led tens of thousands of soldiers to prepare for forcibly passing outside the mountain road. The Chu soldiers who were ambushing near the mountain road in advance became a little worried. Originally, they did not think that Lu Jinxian would choose to pass here. After all, Lu Jinxian can be regarded as a famous veteran. How could he not understand that although this mountain road is a shortcut, it is very dangerous? Therefore, Mo Jingli did not send many troops to ambush here, at most it was just a gesture. However, this empty city plan obviously could not deceive Lu Jinxian. Although they could also light the fire, this was the final worst strategy. You must know that now is the time when everything withers in the severe winter, and once the fire is ignited, no one knows when it will be extinguished.

"What should I do?" The general lying in the mountains looked at the situation in front of him, and couldn't help but frown and asked the people around him.

The comrade next to him frowned and said, "Don't be anxious first. This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Lu Jinxian is afraid that he will not be able to attack for a while. Report to King Li and Marquis of Muyang." After all, the Mo family army and the Chu army are still a family. Without any necessity, no one wants to kill and injure the other party in such a tragic way. What's more, facing the Mo family army, which has been through many battles, the Chu army has a nearly natural fear.

The Chu army on the mountain didn't know that just when they were fast horses reporting the movements of the Mo family army, Ye Li had already taken another team of troops to detour.

In the Great Chu army, Mo Jingli looked at the secret letter in front of him and frowned. Seeing him like this, Hou Yang and others hurriedly asked: "Emperor, what's wrong with the Mo family army?" Mo Jingli said in a deep voice: "Lu Jinxian is preparing to force the mountain road? Old Marquis Mu, your plan is really useful?"

Old Muyang Hou also frowned and said in a deep voice: "If Lu Jinxian really wants to pass there, Old Minister can guarantee that he will be wiped out. But... With the old minister's understanding of Lu Jinxian, he doesn't want to be such a stupid person, how could he seek death?" At the beginning of setting up this place, Old Muyang Hou did not intend to wipe out the Mo family army, but just wanted to block the speed of the Mo family army's march. Moreover, with the ability of Lu Jinxian and Ye Li, the possibility of success in an ambushing them in such a place is less than zero. It is precisely because of this that Lu Jinxian's actions are particularly incomprehensible.

Mu Yang asked: "Is it for cover? Lu Jinxian and Princess Ding may have divided their troops. Lu Jinxian left only a small group of soldiers to constrain our army's sight?" Old Muyang Hou said: "It is very possible to divide the troops, so the prince still needs to pay attention to the situation on the road. However, Lu Jinxian's total strength is only 400,000. It is reported that Lu Jinxian had at least 200,000 soldiers and horses placed outside the mountain road. What's the use of Princess Ding with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses? In addition, if it comes to marching and fighting... Yi Lao

In my opinion, I am afraid that Princess Ding is not as good as Lu Jinxian. Isn’t this aside?” Although Ye Li fought several famous generals in the world, including King Zhennan, and pacified the northern border. However, as long as the veterans such as Lao Muyang Hou carefully analyzed the situation, they could see that Ye Li was not proficient in the method of using troops. They often made unexpected moves, and were better at controlling and controlling situations outside the battlefield to promote the entire situation, but Ye Li was not really a magical weapon.
