Chapter 617 See through everything

On the other side, Lou Yi fled back to his own formation in some embarrassment.

Lou Yi also didn't expect that his sword would be so vulnerable.

Returning to the formation, Lou Yi hadn't fully recovered yet.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

Yu Tai hurried over on horseback, concerned about Lou Yi's situation.

"It's okay, it's just that the sword in my hand was cut off."

Lou Yi shook his head in shock, and sighed to himself: "The power of Da Gan's armor cannot be compared to ours..."

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry." Yu Tai comforted him: "Yunzheng is the sixth prince of Daqian and the governor of Shuobei. It is normal for him to have a sword in his hand."

There are more skilled craftsmen in Daqian, and the level of forging in Daqian is definitely higher than that of Qiuchi and Dayue Kingdom.

It is normal for Yunzheng, a prince with high position and great authority, to have a magic weapon in his hand.

"That's not Yunzheng."

Lou Yi shook his head and said, "That should be Yun Zheng's substitute."

"substitute?"

Yu Tai's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly: "How did His Highness know that it was Yunzheng's promotion?"

Lou Yi's eyes flashed and he replied: "I paid special attention to that man's expression. He looked a little unnatural from beginning to end. Moreover, he did not have the power of the prince! The key is that when I retreated, , when his accompanying personnel pursued me, they directly ignored his orders..."

Lou Yi carefully recalled the details in his mind.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that that person was not Yunzheng.

Yu Tai was secretly happy in his heart, but he quickly calmed down and frowned: "Could it be that Yunzheng didn't dare to fight His Highness and deliberately sent a substitute to fight?"

"It is indeed possible."

Lou Yi nodded lightly, "But the greater possibility is that Yun Zheng is not among this army..."

With that said, Lou Yi began to analyze again.

Yun Zheng is not one of those pampered princes.

This person personally carried the sword and fought with the enemy many times.

He didn't know what Yun Zheng's martial arts skills were.

But it is certain that Yun Zheng's courage is by no means inferior to him.

He called for formation in front of the two armies. If Yun Zheng was really among this army, he should not even have the courage to fight.

That's why he judged that the people in this army were probably Yun Zheng's substitutes.

The real Yunzheng is either in the army guarding Guifang, or at Tianqiong Mountain Pass.

He learned from Yu Tai that Yunzheng had already been to Tianqiong Pass before.

Moreover, the possibility of the defenders of Tianqiong Pass taking the initiative to attack is relatively small.

Therefore, Yunzheng is most likely among the army guarding Guifang.

After all, judging from the news coming from Guifang, there seemed to be few enemy troops along the way, and their strength was far inferior to that of Guifang.

It is more likely that Yun Zheng will personally control the army.

Listening to Lou Yi's analysis, Yu Tai couldn't help but nodded in agreement, "This is good news for us."

"really!"

Lou Yi nodded lightly, thought for a moment, and then immediately said: "Our troops are almost rested. We will conduct a tentative attack tomorrow to attract the enemy to destroy our trebuchet and consume some of the enemy's strength first!"

"Correct!"

Yu Tai nodded in agreement, "We don't know the enemy's strength yet, so we can find out the enemy's details! So that we can prepare for our follow-up attack."

……

As soon as it was daylight the next day, the enemy troops began to advance.

Yun Zheng climbed up to take a look, with a look of surprise on his face.

A large trebuchet!

A large number of enemy troops were escorting six large trebuchets towards them.

He had no idea how far the enemy's large trebuchets could attack.

However, he could see through his clairvoyance that the enemy's trebuchet was a traditional human trebuchet.

It took dozens of people to pull hard to throw the stone at the other end of the trebuchet.

The throwing distance and power of this trebuchet are definitely not as good as the trebuchets they made.

Time was limited, so they spent a lot of manpower and rushed to work almost every day, but only four trebuchets were produced.

The earliest catapult had been gloriously disintegrated due to structural problems and too many tests.

There are only three catapults available now.

In the distance, the enemy troops were still pressing forward in neat formation.

The troops of Qiu Chi and Dayue Kingdom maintained their momentum and marched on their two wings respectively.

After marching within two miles, some of the cavalry and the soldiers pushing the trebuchets began to move closer to the center and formed a formation in front of them.

Behind the trebuchet, there was also a large group of cavalry.

"What do they mean?"

Miaoyin couldn't understand the enemy's arrangement, so she turned around and asked Yunzheng: "Since they want to attack both wings, shouldn't they send trebuchets to both wings?"

"The enemy is forcing us to make a choice!"

Yun Zheng stared at the slowly approaching enemy troops and said with a smile: "If we don't send people to destroy the trebuchets, they will use the trebuchets to blast open the front wall so that the army can smoothly press over from the front."

"But if we send people to destroy the trebuchet, they can separate their troops from the two wings, gather in the center, and together with the frontal army, surround the people we sent to destroy the trebuchet, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

I have to say that the enemy coach still has something.

The enemy is digging a hole for him.

I want him to jump down even if he knows this is a trap.

He forced the enemy to take the initiative to attack by building a city, but the enemy forced himself to attack with these trebuchets.

Fortunately, they were prepared in advance, otherwise, he would really be forced to send people to destroy the trebuchet.

"I see!"

Miaoyin suddenly realized.

Yunzheng thought for a moment and then ordered: "Instruct Qin Qihu to immediately lead the five thousand elite cavalry left by Feng Yu's troops into various gaps in the front and prepare to attack, but without orders, do not fight! Send an order to Deng Bao, Divide the cavalry into two, and place five thousand men on each side of the left and right wings. No battle is allowed without orders!"

Tong Gang accepted the order and immediately went down to deliver the order.

Miaoyin was subconsciously about to ask Yun Zheng about the purpose of this arrangement, but after a slight hesitation, she swallowed the question.

If you want to learn something, you must use your own brain.

You can't ask Yunzheng everything.

In the words of Yun Zheng, as a general, you must learn to use your own brain!

In this way, Miaoyin stopped asking any more questions and just started thinking to herself.

Looking at Miaoyin who lowered her eyebrows in thought, Yunzheng couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

He originally thought that Miaoyin was going to ask him what the purpose of this arrangement was, but to his surprise, Miaoyin didn't ask.

It seems like you are still thinking about it?

Well, Miaoyin has obviously become more interested in these arrangements on the battlefield recently.

Does she also want to learn to lead soldiers in battle?

If this is the case, he can teach Miaoyin a lesson...
