Chapter 155: Peak Intelligence Battle
Yan Fuyao nodded and said,
"I understand that you don't want him to withdraw his troops. After all, you have to keep him here.
But what does it mean that Yuhuatian sent people to negotiate peace?"
Shen Changgong didn't say anything and tapped his temple.
Yan Fuyao was slightly surprised and asked,
"What do you mean?"
"I was wondering that, too."
"You... Tsk, I thought you were so smart."
"Don't talk!"
Shen Changgong scolded gently, then closed his eyes and began brainstorming.
Seeing that he dared to scold His Majesty, Gongsun Wan'er became furious and rolled up her sleeves to help His Majesty deal with Shen Changgong.
Yan Fuyao glared at her, shook his head, and signaled her not to speak.
Shen Changgong closed his eyes and murmured,
"According to our original plan, there are only two options for Yu Huatian. One is to attack the capital, which is meaningless.
The other option was to withdraw, and he could only withdraw.
But now, he has sent people to negotiate peace, but the terms of the peace talks are unacceptable to me, which shows that he is not sincere in negotiating peace and he still wants to fight. So what message does he want to express through the peace talks?
He wanted to express that he could no longer fight and he was going to withdraw his troops. He wanted me to think that he was going to withdraw his troops.
At the same time, his conditions would infuriate me, making me want to lead my troops out to fight him to the death..."
Having said that, Shen Changgong suddenly opened his eyes, and the gleam in his eyes was breathtaking.
"Yu Huatian wants me to chase him. He wants to withdraw his troops and provoke me so that I will think he is no longer capable and then pursue him without taking my guard down!
Given his current situation, he is definitely unable to attack the city. He can only find a way to make us lose the advantage of defending the city, reduce his disadvantage, and then fight with me on the plains, or set an ambush to defeat my army, and then quickly take over ** City and capture Your Majesty alive!
This is his only chance of winning!"
Shen Changgong's words shocked Yan Fuyao, Tu Que Ling and Gongsun Wan'er.
Gongsun Wan'er said in disbelief,
"This... this is a plan within a plan. How could Yu Huatian be so powerful and think so far ahead?"
Tu Que Ling immediately said,
"Our prince is even more powerful. He saw through his plan at a glance."
Shen Changgong shook his head expressionlessly.
"No, now we have a difficult problem. If Yu Huatian wants to retreat, should we chase him or not?
If you chase it, you will be fooled.
If he didn't chase him, if he really retreated all the way to Yaoguan, relying on the strong city defense of Yaoguan to defend, and then wait for the arrival of the 200,000 reinforcements from Kun State, he would have more than 400,000 people.
And our army, together with the Southern King's army, only has more than 300,000 people.
By then, they will have the advantage of terrain, can attack or defend, and may even defeat our main force, and we will be in a passive position."
Hearing this, everyone's mood fell to the bottom again.
Is it really a dilemma?
Yan Fuyao said in a deep voice,
"But Yaoguan must not be occupied by the enemy's main force again. We must delay the main force and create an opportunity for the Southern King to launch a surprise attack on Yaoguan.
So we had no choice but to pursue the enemy."
"Yes, we can only give chase."
Shen Changgong suddenly smiled easily and said,
"In fact, we have an advantage over Yuhuatian."
"Oh? Tell me quickly, what are the advantages?"
"Kiss me and I'll tell you."
Shen Changgong looked at Yan Fuyao and suddenly said with an evil smile.
Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Yan Fuyao felt a little relieved, which meant that he really had an idea in mind.
She sneered and said,
"Prince Lanling, Lord Shen, do you dare to threaten me now?"
"Why wouldn't you dare? Do you want to kiss me? If not, I won't tell you."
"If you don't want to talk, forget it. I don't want to hear it."
"Well, Wan'er, Que Ling, follow me. I'll assign you a task."
After saying this, he stood up and walked out.
"Ugh!"
Yan Fuyao was a little anxious now. Looking at the complacent Shen Changgong, she gritted her teeth in anger.
Wan'er is right. Shen Changgong can really make people angry with his words!
She walked slowly over and came in front of Shen Changgong. Looking at Shen Changgong's handsome face and his wicked smile, she leaned forward and kissed him.
"Well, that's good. Be more proactive and self-aware in the future. Don't ask me to tell you everything, okay?"
"I know! Tell me now!"
Yan Fuyao's voice was squeezed out from between his teeth.
Shen Changgong put his arm around her waist and said,
"The advantage is that Yu Huatian doesn't know that we know his plan.
We can take advantage of the information gap and use the opponent's strategy against us.
The King of the South has now arrived in Lanling County, but he will definitely not be able to reach Yaoguan before the enemy.
First send a message to the King of the South, asking him to transfer the 50,000 Zhennan Iron Cavalry, change direction, and march westward to support us. The remaining hundreds of thousands of infantry will continue to march southwest.
We first use ourselves as bait to attract the enemy, let them set an ambush for us, and then we jump into the encirclement.
When the battle was at its most intense, 50,000 Zhennan cavalry rushed out and they were the ones who were defeated.
After Yuhuatian is defeated, he will definitely enter the nearby city to defend us.
When the time comes, we will surround the city, capture Yaoguan, and completely seal off Yuhuatian!"
Shen Changgong's strategic goal has always remained unchanged, but the tactics he has arranged have been changing with the battle situation and are constantly being adjusted.
This is real war.
Yan Fuyao thought about it, and then ignored the big hand that touched her waist and asked again,
"Then the chain of tricks we just used Wang Qian to set up is useless, isn't it?"
"Who said it's useless? That's the most effective step. It makes Yu Huatian mistakenly think we're weak and we're just bluffing. That way, he'll have more confidence in setting up the encirclement."
Yan Fuyao nodded slowly, her mind full of what Shen Changgong had just said. Just as she was stunned, Shen Changgong launched a sneak attack without any moral principles and kissed her fiercely on the lips.
……
"It's just a bluff."
Yu Huatian looked at Wang Qian who was kneeling in front of him, with a sneer on his face, and said slowly,
"Shen Changgong is such a smart man, how could he possibly let you hear what he said? I said these words deliberately for you to hear, so that you can convey them to me."
Hearing this, Wang Qian was shocked and raised his head and said,
"Ah? I was fooled?"
"You've been fooled quite a bit. He actually dared to bring up this bullshit idea of ceding territory or paying compensation. My Great Kun boasts a million soldiers, a vast territory, and a powerful national strength. Our cavalry is unrivaled in the world.
Would he dare to dream of ceding land and paying compensation to him?
He is trying to scare you and act like he is very powerful. Shen Changgong is a person who is always confused about his true and false nature.
But fortunately, we also know that he is really weak now."
