Liang Qingwu's question made Song Chi feel like he was playing a script-killing game. Not to mention it was quite interesting. He responded directly, "I choose to prepare for battle. Ten thousand versus a hundred thousand, the advantage is mine."

"Ha ha!"

Many people around burst into laughter, thinking that this guy must be a fool.

"I will lead my army to the outskirts of Blackwater City and surround it without attacking. I will wait for five days until your food and supplies run out, then I will force you out of the city to fight."

Song Ming sneered: "You've already lost."

The people watching around shook their heads and chuckled. Originally, this martial arts show was quite interesting, but after the rules were changed, it was really boring and the outcome was no longer in doubt.

"I haven't finished speaking yet." Song Chi said, "Don't forget, I still have a day to prepare."

"Then I'll give you time to prepare. I'll stick with my original plan."

While the two were talking, a military exercise confrontation began.

Song Chi walked up to the military map and pointed to a location on it. He said, "I've sent two thousand cavalry to set up an ambush above the Black Mountain Pass. They'll be preparing large rocks, huge trees, and flammable hay. They'll launch a surprise attack when your army passes by..."

"You actually dare to take the initiative to attack?" Song Ming looked surprised and suspicious.

Song Chi asked, "Why not? Black Mountain Pass is a natural pass. At its widest point, only five horses can ride abreast. It's a vital route connecting the two lands. That's why the court built the Black Water Border City sixty miles away. I can send cavalry to rush to Black Mountain Pass in half a day. We can hide the horses at the foot of the mountain, and the cavalry can scavenge for supplies and set up an ambush there."

"And Black Mountain Pass is the only way your army must take. My ambush will be okay, right?"

Upon hearing this, a strange look flashed in Liang Qingwu's beautiful eyes. She was not mistaken. This young man with a name similar to that of the Prime Minister's son had indeed given her a surprise.

Everyone gathered around the military map, looking for the Black Mountain Pass that Song Chi mentioned. These powerful people were used to a comfortable life and had no idea about the situation on the border.

The military map is exquisite and detailed, and it can be seen at a glance that Heishankou is an important pass with its own mark. It is indeed a good strategy to ambush here in advance.

"This...doesn't make sense."

Han Yuanzheng said, "The enemy is attacking on a large scale. You should close the gates and defend yourself. How dare you leave the city and ambush?"

"Isn't that reasonable?"

Song Chi said calmly, "Master Han, don't you think it's ridiculous to say something like that? On the battlefield, will the enemy tell you whether it's reasonable or not?"

Han Yuanzheng's face turned slightly red. What he said was indeed a bit stupid.

"Faced with a powerful enemy attack, he was able to remain calm, devise a good strategy, take the initiative, and set up an ambush in advance."

Liang Qingwu said, "This plan is brilliant. It will surely inflict damage on the enemy. The Northern Wei suffered 10,000 casualties, leaving them with only 90,000 soldiers..."

After the words fell, Song Ming's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly said, "It was just an ambush, how could it cause tens of thousands of casualties?"

He was dissatisfied as to why there were casualties before the mission even started.

Liang Qingwu snorted coldly and said, "The Black Mountain Pass is long and narrow, and if the army enters, they will be trapped by dropping huge rocks before and after. The commander-in-chief said that there were 10,000 casualties, which is a great understatement. It is to take into account your status as the son of the Prime Minister!"

Song Ming's face was gloomy. This woman had been hurting him with her words all the time, but he had nothing to say!

He looked at Song Shiwen, wanting his father to speak for him, but his father looked at Song Chi with shock, as if he didn't hear what Liang Qingwu said to him.

“Damn it!”

Song Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Even if our army has suffered 10,000 casualties and still has 90,000 left, and our army continues to attack and besiege the city, what should you do?"

Song Chi responded calmly: "Leave the city and fight!"

"Leave the city to fight?"

As soon as Song Chi finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter.

"I thought he had some abilities, but it turns out he's just average. I guess it was just a sudden inspiration."

"yes!"

"Originally, there were only 10,000 people. 2,000 cavalry have already been sent out, leaving only 5,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry. With just these people, you dare to go out of the city to fight? Aren't you a fool?"

"I think it's better to just admit defeat and avoid embarrassment!"

There was a lot of discussion around, and the Prime Minister was sitting next to them, so they naturally knew what to say.

At this time, Liang Qingwu also reminded: "Think carefully, the Northern Wei cavalry is elite and powerful. A single charge can wipe out your entire army, and this military exercise confrontation will therefore fail."

Song Chi said calmly, "I will only send out 3,000 cavalry to fight, and the rest of the troops will stay in the city."

"Ridiculous! Do you think you can fight against my 90,000 cavalry with only 3,000 cavalry?"

Song Ming shouted, "All ninety thousand of my cavalry will attack. A single charge will wipe out your three thousand!"

With a wave of his hand, he looked like a mighty general galloping on the battlefield, commanding a large number of troops and looking very majestic.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Song Chi couldn't help laughing. Now he was sure that this guy was definitely a fake.

"What are you laughing at? You are about to die, and you can still laugh?" Song Ming said in a bad tone.

Song Chi asked in return, "Do you know how huge a scene it would be if 90,000 cavalrymen charged at the same time?"

Song Ming was stunned. He had never thought about this question.

"As the saying goes, a thousand men can reach the earth and sky, and ten thousand men can reach the sky and sky. Yet, you sent ninety thousand cavalrymen to charge against three thousand cavalrymen simultaneously..."

"What's wrong? I just have more people." Song Ming acted like he was the coolest.

Song Chi shook his head and said, "Too many people means chaos. Although the area outside Blackwater City is vast, the military map is detailed. It is impossible to accommodate 90,000 cavalrymen charging at the same time. There will inevitably be pushing and shoving. A large-scale cavalry charge with trampling will cause heavy casualties..."

After saying this, Song Chi deliberately said, "It's a pity that you didn't become the general of Northern Wei. Otherwise, our Great Zhou wouldn't have suffered the disaster of Youzhou!"

"you!"

Song Ming's face flushed red as he angrily said, "This is a military exercise, not a real battle on the battlefield. Why should we care about these details?"

“Why bother with the details?”

Song Chi shook his head and said, "I really can't believe that the Prime Minister's son could say such a thing. Before every battle, we must conduct a detailed war situation simulation. The more detailed and meticulous the consideration, the greater the possibility of victory."

"You are a commanding general. A single word or even a single thought of yours could cost many lives. In your eyes, what does human life mean?"

His tone was almost like a lecture, leaving Song Ming speechless and almost unable to speak, while the strange look in Liang Qingwu's beautiful eyes became more and more intense.

"Shut up! What qualifications do you have to speak to Master Ming like that? Master Ming has already said this is just a military exercise, not a real war."

Han Yuanzheng, the lackey, jumped out again impatiently to protect his master.

Song Chi said directly, "The female commander's test is based on these details. Could it be that she is really leading the army in battle? Don't you know how you were eliminated?"

"You..." Han Yuanzheng hesitated, not knowing how to refute.

Seeing this scene, many people present were surprised and suspicious. This servant of the Shen family was really abnormal today, and his words were so sharp.

There was also surprise in Song Shiwen's eyes. He didn't expect that the son he abandoned was so capable.
