Chapter 456
Sun Qi was arguing in the court, and his attitude towards the group of ministers of Huan State was somewhat arrogant.
But he does have the capital to be proud of his talent.
After the court talks, he and Qiu Rong walked in front on the way out of the palace.
The ministers behind him gathered together in groups of three or three, and they were pointing at him and talking in a low voice.
Qiu Rong seemed quite satisfied with his successful persuasion of King Huan and giving up the cedes of land, and couldn't help but say:
"Sun Qi, today's court remarks, your military insights are indeed unique, but is it a bit too arbitrary to say that the Liang army wanted to attack Xishan?"
"Don't worry, the prime minister, with Xue Wu's combat habits, the Liang army must be like this. It depends on whether the king wants to take advantage of this opportunity." He said confidently.
Qiu Rong glanced at him strangely, not understanding where he got his confidence.
Although King Huan didn't believe it very much, he remembered Sun Qi's war idea and thought for a moment, he finally passed a king's order to Xiang Ge, telling the latter that the court believed that the Liang army might attack Xishan, so that he could be prepared.
At the same time, the matter of cedes Fu'an was sternly rejected.
The news came back to Liang Kingdom, and King Liang was furious!
I thought that King Huan would not take it seriously at all, but I didn't expect that this would be the result.
"It's outrageous! I think King Huan doesn't cry until he sees the coffin! He has to throw a few more cities to know the pain!"
Seeing him getting angry, Cai Yan stood up and said, "King, from this point of view, our strategic arrangement should have been noticed. Huan Kingdom, someone will offer advice."
"King Huan has never paid attention to talents. Even if Xiang Ge is called a famous general, he is just a false reputation. And they should have many peace sects, so how could this be so!" King Liang was puzzled.
Cai Yan shook his head and said, "No matter what, it is meaningless for our army to raid Zibo River next, because Fu'an is not ours and the infantry cannot land."
"Well..." King Liang frowned and said after a moment: "Then I will order Xue Wu to continue fighting! Continue to advance into Huan territory and force Huan to force Huan!"
To destroy a country, you can't just plunder a few cities.
If possible, King Liang would only exchange all the current results for Fu'an's small land, because that was a big strategy.
On the Huanliang front line, hundreds of thousands of troops were still in a confrontation. When Wang Ling came, there was nothing to say about Xue Wu, so he immediately began to arrange a combat plan.
When the Central Army was discussing the army, some people suggested that Xiang Ge be able to fight to overwhelm the opponent with pure combat power.
Someone suggested that a light cavalry be launched and attack the rear.
However, these opinions were refuted by Xue Wu.
He said: "After several battles, Huan's army lost six cities, and Xiang Ge should not fight us in a decisive battle, but would only increase the defense line."
"If a light cavalry comes out, not only will it be too loud, but it will also go deeper into the back, so I'm afraid there will be no return."
"What about the opinion of Mr. Xue?" asked the deputy general.
Xue Wu stared at the sand table, pondered for a moment and said, "There is a military strategy. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. We need to understand where Xiang Ge's focus is, and then unexpectedly attack his most unexpected place."
As he said that, he pointed to the sand table again: "This place is not important, the mountains and mountains, but we value it. It is enough to be a strategic stronghold for our army."
"Anyway, General Tan Sheng will lead 20,000 elite troops, traveling starry night and occupying the streams and mountains!"
"At the same time, our army's frontal battlefield puts continuous pressure on the Huan army, making Xiang Ge's attention unable to be distracted!"
"No!" The generals clasped their fists.
On the other side, Huan Army camp.
The letters of King Huan have naturally been conveyed.
When the generals gathered, the biased general couldn't help asking: "Ship Xiang, don't know what instructions are there in the king's letter?"
Xiang Ge frowned slightly: "The king said that after discussion, Wang Ting believed that the Liang army would be very likely to attack Xishan."
"This..." the generals looked around.
Someone said: "Is this unlikely?"
Someone else said: "Yes, Xishan is not on the main battlefield. Judging from the current situation, it is meaningless for the Liang army to take it down there..."
"This seems to be unreasonable, but if you think about it carefully, if the Liang army continues to spread from the stream and mountains, the consequences will be unpredictable."
Xiang Ge pondered for a moment. After all, he was still the head coach. He said, "Of course, since it is Wang Ling, I dare not refuse to obey. Regardless of whether the Liang army will attack or divide a small group of troops, garrison them in advance."
As a result, due to Huan's army's advance preparation, Liang general Tan Sheng led 20,000 troops and was fatally ambushed on the important road that was rushing to the rivers and mountains!
In Liang Jun's opinion, this was simply impossible, so he was completely unprepared and caught off guard.
Tan Sheng was defeated, and more than 10,000 soldiers were lost, and he returned in a panic.
This was the first victory of the Huan army since the battle between Huan Liang. Although it was a small victory, it was enough to boost the morale of the army.
Xue Wu was a little confused.
Because he has a deep understanding of Xiang Ge's combat philosophy, he should not have suffered a small defeat.
But how could he know that this was not Xiang Ge's plan, but a small commoner who was still unknown to this day.
From then on, it is impossible to see that Sun Qi is definitely not a boastful person.
But the real enemy is ahead.
When the news came back to the Huan Kingdom's court, King Huan was overjoyed and couldn't help but praise Sun Qi. At the same time, he did not eat the preface and sent officials to find Sun Qi's residence with a dedicated person.
In the dilapidated small courtyard, the king unfolded, and the officials chanted loudly:
"The king ordered Sun Qi to predict the enemy's success, severely defeated the Liang army, greatly boosted the morale of our army, and gave him a hundred gold medals, and ordered him to enter the palace tomorrow to discuss state affairs..."
What does this edict represent for a civilian? It represents a step towards the sky!
But Sun Qi knelt down below, but his face was calm, as if all this was as expected.
"Sun Qi, I will receive the order to thank you."
He said in a calm voice.
Then, the servant behind him walked up and handed over a whole tray of gold.
"Xiang Niang accepted it." Sun Qi said naturally.
"Yes." The wife suppressed her excitement.
After the imperial edict was announced, Sun stood up, Xiuniang took the pallet, and the official bowed: "Congratulations, I hope I can live up to the king's trust and say goodbye."
"Sir, walk slowly." Sun Qi also bowed.
After he left, Xiuniang was holding gold and could no longer hide her excitement: "Husband..."
"Haha." Sun Qi smiled and said indifferently: "What a hundred gold coins are worth it? This is just a small prize. After this battle, I will let the people of the world know my name of Sun Qi!"
"Yeah!" Xiuniang nodded desperately.
