Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 797 This move is a conspiracy

Originally, there was also General Wu Ling in the first main army, who later participated in the Battle of Silver Moon Beach.

However, for the safety of the Far Eastern Prairie, Lu Hao finally asked her to return to Wolaback to protect Princess Ashi Shanmei.

Now these generals are basically promoted from their original subordinates. They have very rich combat experience, and most of them are fully capable of taking charge on their own.

Seeing that all ten generals had arrived, Lu Hao immediately took out the map, spread it on the ground, and began to arrange it.

"Generals, please look at the map. This is where we are coming from. It's called Sagapo. The valley slope here is about five kilometers long..."

"In another mountain col in Sagapo, on the trail next to it, all the soldiers hid their horses here, and then returned to Sagapo to ambush. We are going to create a beautiful ambush for Zheng Guohua."

Lu Hao pointed at the map and said with a smile.

"The emperor means that Zheng Guohua will lead an army to chase after him?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu said doubtfully.

"You don't even think about it. Ding City is just a small city. How can it block the way of our army? To the west of Ding City is Xunyang City, the capital of the Zheng State. If Zheng Guohua knew that we would attack the capital, what do you think he would do?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"If this is the case, Zheng Guohua will definitely return to rescue or bite our army from behind. Therefore, the emperor asked us to ambush his army here."

Xuanyuan Lingyu finally understood.

"That's absolutely correct. Zheng Guohua found out that we didn't attack Baya City, and also found out that our target was Xunyang City. He would definitely lead his army to chase us immediately."

"Therefore, we deployed our army here, waiting for him to come over and catch him by surprise."

Lu Hao's eyes were like lightning, shining with sparks of wisdom.

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to question your decision, but what if... what if Zheng Guohua doesn't lead his army to pursue us?"

General Zhou Yuan raised questions.

"Believe in my judgment, he will not let us attack Xunyang City."

Thief Lu Hao chuckled.

"Your Majesty, please give the order. How should we set up an ambush?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu asked.

"Generals, we must divide and surround Zheng Guohua's army and eliminate it in this five-kilometer-long Sagapo. The specific combat mission is..."

Lu Hao immediately began to make detailed arrangements.

He knew very well that although there was heavy fog in the mountainous area, the fog would dissipate when the sun came out, and by then, Zheng Guohua's army would probably arrive.

As for the specific division and encirclement, it is to block the enemy's way, cut off the enemy's retreat, use the terrain to divide and encircle the enemy, and finally divide and annihilate the enemy.

This tactic is simple and easy to understand, and is not very profound at all. It just requires assigning a location to each general.

"Okay, according to the deployment just now, General Xuanyuan will be at the leading position, blocking the enemy's way. General Zhou Yuan will be at the dragon's tail, blocking the enemy's retreat. The other generals will attack from both sides of the hillside according to their own defense areas. Zheng’s army…”

After Lu Hao finished speaking, everyone immediately took action.

Thirty thousand elite troops were ambushing on both sides of the five-kilometer-long Sagapo, quietly waiting for the arrival of Zheng's army.

Of course, General Zheng Guohua was no fool. The army gathered and set out, and immediately sent out more than a dozen waves of scouts, trying to figure out the movements of the Chinese Empire's army.Lu Hao inspected the positions of the generals, and then returned to General Zhou Yuan, because he was a little worried that he would not be able to block the tail of this "dragon". If Zheng Guohua retreated to Bai Ya City, then all the previous efforts would have been wasted.

"Your Majesty, will Zheng Guohua really come?"

General Zhou Yuan looked at the gradually dispersing fog and asked with a frown.

"General Zhou, fighting is nothing more than conspiracy and deception. However, my move is a conspiracy, so he has to return to Xunyang City to aid."

Lu Hao responded calmly.

"Conspiracy? I don't understand, please let the emperor make it clear."

General Zhou Yuan said in confusion.

"Zheng Guohua thought that I was going to attack Bai Ya City, but in the end he discovered that I had crossed Bai Ya City and aimed directly at Xunyang City, the capital of the country. If he stood still, he would not be able to explain to the leader of Zheng. If he led his troops back to the capital to aid, he would have to guard against being attacked by us. Ambush, so he won’t be marching very fast.”

"Of course, according to my estimation, he will send out scouts to find out the movements of our army, and then lead the army to press over. As for how to fight our army, I guess he has no idea now, so he can only take one step at a time. "

"If a general in charge of the army does not have his own strategic thinking, he will always be headless and will undoubtedly die. I am taking advantage of his current confusion to make fatal mistakes and create a better way for our army to annihilate the main force of Zheng State. condition."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"Your Majesty is wise! I will admire you greatly."

Zhou Yuan's eyes were filled with stars, and she really admired Lu Hao now.

"I am certain that Zheng Guohua will rescue Xunyang City. Of course, this is also taking advantage of his loyalty and patriotism. If he does not care about the safety of Xunyang City and the leader of Zheng State, he will not be so easily fooled."

"This has something to do with human nature and psychology. If I put it bluntly, it's not that magical or profound. It's just that everything must be planned before taking action, and only then can we strategize and win the battle thousands of miles away."

Lu Hao added with a smile.

"The Emperor is indeed a man of extraordinary talent. He will finally be taught a lesson."

General Zhou Yuan seemed to understand, but he benefited a lot.

Suddenly, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from the mountain road in the distance. Although it was very slight, it was difficult to escape Lu Hao's ears.

In an instant, the soul sea was activated, the soul power was released, and more than a dozen waves of scouts were found hurriedly galloping towards them.

In order to prevent the horses' hooves from making too much noise, these horses' hooves were all wrapped in cotton, which reduced the sound of the horses' hooves to a limit.

"Generals, the enemy's cavalry scouts are here. Please pay attention to concealment and let these scouts pass."

Lu Hao immediately sent a message from his soul to inform the generals.

The order was immediately passed on, and everyone entered a state of silence. The sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, and the scout team headed towards Ding City at lightning speed.

At the same time, Lu Hao discovered that Zheng Guohua's army was also rushing in from behind.

There was no other way, the cavalry had been deceived by Lu Hao, and now only the infantry was left. They could only run on two legs, and their speed was much slower.

Lu Hao estimated that it would take at least an hour to enter the ambush circle. Judging from the time, the scouts probably had not resisted Ding City yet.

When they found out that there was no Chinese Empire army in Ding City, they would definitely be confused, wondering where the enemy had gone?
Even if they thought of ambush on the road, they would still need to come back and notify Zheng Guohua, but it was impossible for Lu Hao to let them pass through this death passage safely.
