Chapter 495 Change of combat plan

As dusk approached, Yunzheng sent someone to order Qu Zhi's troops to return.

When Qu Zhi's troops joined them, they immediately retreated and followed Wang Qi and others to escort the grain and grass forward overnight.

The army closely protected the food and grass and kept moving forward with torches.

Later, the spies reported that an enemy army came from the Yellow Sand Sea, and it seemed that they wanted to burn their food and grass.

After receiving the news, Yunzheng immediately ordered people to start preparations.

However, even after waiting until midnight, the enemy troops did not come to burn the food and grass.

Yunzheng smiled bitterly and ordered everyone to set up camp on the spot.

He knew that his plan had been seen through by the enemy.

The enemy troops will not come to burn food and grass.

The enemy pretended to be fooled and tricked them!

Plans can't keep up with changes.

Now, plans had to be remade.

Afterwards, Yunzheng ordered people to call Qu Zhi and other generals to the tent.

"Everyone, are you interested in playing a big game?"

Yun Zheng asked everyone straight to the point.

After hearing Yun Zheng's words, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

Playing with big tickets?

"Your Highness, what are your plans?"

Qu Zhi, a militant, was the first to ask.

"Your Majesty, if you have any plans, just tell me! We will all follow Your Majesty!"

"that is!"

"Your Majesty is going to raid Beihuan Royal Court, let's go with him too!"

"..."

Then, everyone spoke.

Everyone's eyes sparkled.

Just like a hungry wolf seeing its prey.

"You really guessed it right!"

Yun Zheng's eyes flashed, "I really plan to ride on the king's court!"

boom!

As Yunzheng finished speaking, everyone except Qu Zhi felt a buzzing in their heads.

They just said casually, does Yunzheng really want to do this?

Is a real horse trampling the royal court?

Yun Zheng scanned everyone indifferently, "Why, weren't everyone very excited just now? Are they dumbfounded now?"

Facing Yun Zheng's gaze, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

After a brief period of confusion, everyone shook their heads and their eyes regained their luster.

Qu Zhi asked with a smile: "Your Highness, I guess Jia Yao is here in the Modong Corridor?"

Yunzheng's plan was seen through.

The first thing Qu Zhi thought of was Jia Yao.

"I don't care if she's here or not!"

Yunzheng nodded, "Since the plan has been seen through, we have to be tough! We have strong soldiers and strong horses, are we still afraid of cavalry like them who don't even have full armor?"

"Correct!"

Qu Zhi nodded, "It would be a shame to just withdraw like this!"

It's not like they haven't fought head-on with the enemy.

The elites led by Hu Jie were defeated by them!

Are you still afraid of these soldiers who were recruited temporarily and don't even have armor or weapons?

"It's really such a loss!"

Yun Zheng nodded, "Order people to bury pots and make rice at Mao hour, and send out troops at Chen time! In addition to leaving five thousand people behind, give them five thousand horses, and order them to guard the food and grass! The rest of the people will launch an assault!"

With the enemy's delay, the Mengfu and Zhenhe troops might have joined them.

Now, the enemy's strength is definitely superior.

They will also bring five thousand infantry to serve as cavalry.

"Your Highness, are you going to launch a surprise attack like this?"

Qu Zhi asked in surprise: "Isn't this like His Highness's style?"

Unless absolutely necessary, Yun Zheng never likes to face each other head-on.

In every battle, there will be some ingenuity.

If Yun Zheng's plan is followed, they will have thirty-three thousand cavalry.

If the reinforcements of Mongolian and Zhenhe could not arrive in time, the number of enemy troops would not be as large as theirs.

Even if the enemy's reinforcements arrive, their morale is like a rainbow, and they are not afraid of the enemy's 40,000 soldiers who hastily marched into the army.

Their weapons, equipment and morale are far superior to the enemy's.

A direct frontal forceful assault is not impossible.

But the casualties are really hard to say.

After all, the number of enemy troops is there, and even the fire stick in his hand might be able to knock someone to death.

As soon as he heard Qu Zhi's words, Yun Zheng knew that Qu Zhi had an idea, and immediately said: "Tell me what you think."

Qu Zhi chuckled and said immediately: "Didn't the enemy attack us? Let's also attack the enemy!"

"Go on."

Yunzheng smiled.

It seemed that Qu Zhi might have gone with him.

Qu Zhi immediately said: "General, I think we can dedicate thousands of elite troops to attack their royal court across the Yellow Sand Sea. In this case, the enemy will definitely divide their troops to stop us! If the enemy If the army dares not come, we will go straight to the royal court!"

As long as the enemy forces are divided, the frontal force will be less.

In this way, even if they force a surprise attack, the casualties will be much smaller.

After listening to Qu Zhi's words, everyone nodded.

Qu Zhi’s plan is a good one.

Yun Zheng nodded slightly, then frowned and said, "I think so too, but I have some concerns."

"Ok?"

Qu Zhi was puzzled, "What are your concerns, Your Highness?"

"I'm worried that the enemy is well prepared."

Yun Zheng frowned, "If the enemy has evacuated all the rear and even moved the royal court, and pounces on us like this, maybe the enemy will not pay attention to us at all, or even see through our intentions."

"No way?"

Qu Zhi's eyelids twitched, "If they move again, I'm afraid they won't have anywhere to move, right?"

"If it were me, I should be well prepared." Yun Zheng said: "Beihuan is definitely not sure of winning now. Their actions in the past few days are also very strange. They may even be dragging us on purpose. So as to buy enough time for the tribes in the rear to migrate."

The biggest fear in fighting a country like Beihuan is their constant migration.

Once the tribes of Beihuan moved, it meant that they would not be able to obtain supplies from the tribes of Beihuan.

Ga Yao has done this kind of thing once before!

It's not impossible to do something like this again.

Anyway, they can't stay in Beihuan territory forever.

The people in Beihuan have moved away, but they can also move back!

"It's possible!"

Wang Qi touched his chin and said, "If this is the case, it may not be realistic for us to raid the royal court."

"That's what I say, but you have to try!" Huo Gu was full of fighting spirit, "No matter what happens, if we eat the enemy's defenders in front, it won't be a wasted trip!"

"Correct!"

Qu Zhi nodded, "Anyway, the enemy will definitely suffer more losses than us!"

"We can't think of raiding the royal court with surprise troops!" Yunzheng said solemnly: "We can defeat the enemy in front and push them directly over! The elite soldiers crossing the Yellow Sand Sea are just pretending to raid the royal court, but The real goal is to make a detour from the Yellow Sand Sea to the enemy's rear, and when the frontal attack is launched, these elite soldiers will come out from behind the enemy's rear!"

The enemy's actions in the past few days have been too strange.

It doesn't look like he wants to fight with them at all.

If the enemy wants to protect the rear, they should be ready to fight them to the death!

If that group of elite soldiers was empty, they would probably be killed by the enemy without supplies.

"Your Highness is right!"

Qu Zhi's eyes flashed, and he immediately called for battle: "Your Highness, let the future commander command this elite army!"

"it is good!"

Yunzheng readily agreed, "Don't we just have 7,000 more horses? I will give you 7,000 elite soldiers and 14,000 horses to ensure the combat effectiveness of your unit!"

One person and one horse wandering around the Yellow Sand Sea for a long time will definitely damage the combat effectiveness.

One more horse, a guarantee.

"Yes!"

Qu Zhi accepted the order with excitement on his face...
