Rumble!
Dust flew up along the Yellow River Ancient Path.
The sound of horse hooves shook the heavens and the earth. It could even compete with the surging water of the Yellow River.
Yang Ji personally led the army to this place. If the entire army rushed forward for about 50 miles, they would be able to reach Luokou Cang.
However, just as they were about to arrive, Yang Ji maintained his marching speed and summoned Fang Xuanling and the others to discuss the relevant matters.
"We will reach Luo Kou Cang in another 50 miles. Do you have any suggestions?”
When Fang Xuanling, Li Cunxiao, and the others caught up on their horses, Yang Ji asked,
"The Tile Gang Village is closer to Luokou Cang, so they will definitely be able to reach Luokou Cang before our army. In addition, our army will definitely consume a lot of energy if we march for a long time, so the Tile Gang Army can wait for fatigue.”
"Furthermore, if the troops brought by the Tile Garrison Army are elite enough, they might be able to quickly capture Luokou Cang, and the situation will be even more dire.”
Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment before giving a detailed answer.
What he said was not groundless. After all, the Tile Gang Village was indeed the closest to Luo Kou Cang. If the Tile Gang Village really sent out their elites, Luo Kou Cang's strength would not be able to resist.
As for the Wa Gang Army occupying Luokou Cang, which made the Sui Army's situation even more severe, there was no need to mention it.
Yang Ji nodded and agreed with Fang Xuanling's statement. In terms of marching speed and other aspects, the Sui army did occupy a lot of disadvantages.
"If that's the case, why not lure the Tile Garrison Army into the wilderness and eliminate their effective strength?”
Li Xiuning, the commandant of the bodyguards, asked.
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling narrowed his eyes as a plan quietly emerged in his mind.
"Imperial grandson, I have a plan.”
Fang Xuanling said in a low voice.
"Please speak, Military Advisor."
When Yang Ji heard this, he knew that Fang Xuanling probably already had a plan in mind.
"Imperial Grandson, you can split your troops into two groups. One group will be fifty thousand soldiers stationed in Luoyang, with Vice General Wang Shichong leading Li Cunxiao as the vanguard general.”
"The other path will be led by you personally, Huang Taisun. The soldiers will move at lightning speed and circle around the rear of Luokou Cang to outflank the Wa Gang Army.”
Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes.
When Li Xiu Ning, who was listening from the side, heard this, she looked at Fang Xuanling in surprise. This plan was really effective.
Even Wang Shichong was shocked. It seemed that the person who could stay beside Huang Taisun was no ordinary person.
If Huang Taisun split his forces into two and the remaining 50,000 continued to pretend to be the main force, the Wa Gang Army would not have expected this.
After that, the front and back armies would attack from both sides. Even if the Wa Gang Army arrived early and even set up an ambush, they would definitely not be able to resist the Sui Army.
Although the West Ocean army did not follow Huang Taisun in battle, the ten thousand black-armored soldiers and the ten thousand Sui soldiers were not weaker than the elites of the West Ocean army.
With such an elite army unexpectedly outflanking their retreat, the Tile Garrison Army would definitely be forced to retreat.
First of all, Fang Xuanling's plan had the effect of catching them off guard.
Without a path of retreat, the morale of the Tile Garrison Army was severely affected. The unstable morale was a problem even when fighting against the 50,000 soldiers of Luoyang, let alone the more elite Sui Wu soldiers and the Black Armor Army.
Yang Ji's eyes narrowed. This plan was exactly what he wanted, and it would be easy to succeed.
"The Tile Garrison Army has the advantage in speed and stamina, so it is very likely that they will ambush the army in advance.”
"After all, they have too much of an advantage, and the Western Navy didn't go with them.”
Yang Ji said slowly.
"That is why the Tile Garrison Army wants to defeat the Sui Army head-on. They want to weaken our morale, which will have a miraculous effect on the entire rebel army.”
Li Cunxiao continued.
Li Xiuning was secretly surprised. She didn't expect that not only was Huang Taisun invincible, but he was also good at guessing and analyzing the enemy's thoughts.
Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy was the most terrifying person in a war.
"Is this the embryonic form of an emperor?”
Wang Shichong muttered.
"What is the meaning of this?"
Yang Ji glanced at everyone and asked.
"I have no objections!"
Wang Shichong cupped his hands.
The deputy general had no objections, and the military counselor had no objections. This matter was settled.
"10,000 black-armored soldiers and 10,000 Sui soldiers will follow this king to take a detour. The remaining 50,000 Luoyang troops will be led by Wang Shichong and Li Cunxiao as the vanguard general.”
After making up his mind, Yang Ji quickly issued an order.
After the order was given, Sui Wu's soldiers and the Black Armored Army separated from their formation and quickly followed Huang Taisun's figure.
Li Xiuning and her brother were among the entourage. The rest of the people were among the 50,000 troops stationed in Luoyang. After all, this was the only way to make the main force of 50,000 more realistic.
……
On the other side, Shan Xiong Xin's Tile Mound Army had already arrived near Luokou Cang.
At this moment, the army was waiting for the scouts to gather intelligence before considering what to do next.
"Report!"
A figure rode over at top speed. It was the scout sent by Shan Xiong Xin and the others.
"What's the situation at the front?"
Seeing the return of the scouts, Shan Xiong Xin hurriedly asked.
"Just as the general said, the Sui army is marching quickly and wants to reach Luokou Cang as soon as possible.”
The scout quickly reported.
Shan Xiong Xin's lips curled up.
The Sui army was targeting the Wagang Stronghold. From Luoyang to Luokou Cang, they would definitely need to march quickly in order to quickly enter Luokou Cang. With the advantage of Luokou Cang, they would be able to fight the Wagang army for a long time.
"What do you think?"
Shan Xiong Xin looked at Cheng Yaojin and Wang Bodang and asked.
"The Sui army is marching at a high speed, so they must be exhausted. We arrived at Luo Kou Cang first, so we have the advantage!”
Although Cheng Yaojin was usually a bit careless, this person was like Zhang Fei, a person who was rough but meticulous.
"This time, the Sui army doesn't have the Western Navy, and they only have 70,000 soldiers. Our army has more than double the Sui army's strength.”
Wang Bodang narrowed his eyes slightly.
Overall, the Tile Garrison Army had a considerable advantage. If they entered Luokou Cang now, wouldn't they be wasting this advantage?
"Since that's the case, we'll set up an ambush on the path that the Sui army must pass through and catch them off guard!”
Shan Xiongxin and Wang Bodang looked at each other, both of them had reached a consensus.
They could use this opportunity to set up an ambush halfway along the Sui army's route, catching the Sui army off guard and killing the prestige of the imperial grandson.
If this was successful, not only would it raise the morale of the army, it would also raise the morale and establish the prestige of the Tile Gang Village.
Moreover, the Sui army had been marching for a long time, so their physical strength was definitely not enough. In addition to being ambushed, even the elites would not be able to resist the edge of the Wagang Army.
