Lu Yun asked the people in the military camp to make a rough estimate and found that the food in their city could last for four days!
After four days, they will really be short of food and supplies, and they may really starve to death, and their combat effectiveness will drop rapidly.
But there are still a lot of wounded soldiers, so there is no rush to go into battle!
He needed to slow down first, let them recuperate and replenish their fighting strength before launching a surprise attack. He planned to break out directly on the night three days later while the other party had not reacted and had relaxed their vigilance.
In addition, he also thought of a tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, since they were now facing a double siege from the Miao and Shu armies.
Then it is necessary to let Shu relax its vigilance.
Come to the tent where the craftsmen are.
Fortunately, these craftsmen were not taken away.
Lu Yun issued a death order to them, "Produce a large amount of explosives for me in a very short time. No matter what methods you use, take all the materials in this city."
"It doesn't matter if it's a little less powerful."
"Let the soldiers in the army come and help you if they can, do you understand?"
"yes."
As the day passed, King Chen Mu of Shu quickly received news from the front lines in the Shu Kingdom's court. They were traveling day and night, and also using pigeons and birds to make their journey even faster.
"Report!"
"Your Majesty, General Zhou has already led my country's army to retreat as planned during the battle, causing a huge impact on the Great Zhou army."
"It's a pity that the Great Zhou withstood the pressure and actually repelled the Liao army. Now they are trapped in the city.
Behind us, the Miao army is threatening us, and in front of us, we have the Shu army's defense line."
"They are now trapped inside, and their food supply may only be enough for four or five days. Once they launch an attack, the Miao army will naturally pursue them."
"good!"
Chen Mu was very happy. He didn't expect that this plan would really work. The Prime Minister was really capable.
Zhang He laughed heartily, "Your Majesty, did you see that? This is my plan, and it will put our Shu Kingdom in a very advantageous position."
"I didn't expect that this Lu guy has been using this method of pursuit and interception, trying to make the Miao Kingdom a trapped beast, but now he has been tricked by us using this strategy."
"Lu Yun must be mad at us right now, but he doesn't have any chance anymore. As long as the food supply in the city runs out, they'll be dead."
"Too."
Chen Mu was very happy. He felt that this was the right thing to do, and he also felt that the Shu army would definitely win.
The ministers in the court also thought so, but they did not consider the actual situation.
That is, their Shu Kingdom's army did not really win a battle.
They have a serious lack of awareness of their own strength and are only in a state of self-recognition.
Three days later, it was night.
Lu Yun had already let the soldiers have a good rest during the day and let them eat and drink enough. Now they were fighting a desperate battle.
"Everyone, when you get down there, tell your soldiers that we're running out of food. Only a desperate fight can give us a chance of survival. I hope they'll hold on."
"After we defeat the Shu army, we will have meat and wine to eat and let them know how powerful our Great Zhou is."
"Did you hear that?"
"yes!"
Today, Lu Yun will follow Han Xin's example and fight a real battle with his life against the odds.
"Tonight, this eunuch will lead 10,000 cavalrymen to attack the Shu Kingdom camp, catching them off guard and forcing them to surrender. The infantry will follow closely behind, but at a slower pace.
We must not leave any loopholes and prevent the Shu army from being on guard as soon as possible."
"This general is thinking about a problem, that is, how to avoid their spies and prevent them from quickly knowing that the iron cavalry is very loud. They will definitely be able to detect it."
At this time, Shangguan Yan took out a map and explained to Lu Yun, "Eunuch Lu, this is a map of the Shu Kingdom that I got from General Zhang."
"Their military camp is located in Stone Valley."
"This valley is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's in a low-lying state. Therefore, it is an excellent place for military camp defense. They are very smart."
"If our cavalry were to launch a surprise attack, it would certainly be seen by their spies."
"But there is a path that leads away from the valley and away from their path.
It’s just that the movement will be slower, and a journey that originally took half an hour may take two hours.”
"What?"
Lu Yun was shocked, but after thinking carefully, he decided that two hours would be enough. It didn't matter as long as he could get there.
As long as there is no news of enemy spies, it’s fine.
"Then I, the eunuch, will set off first. Our infantry in the Shu camp will advance slowly behind."
"Wait until dark, at midnight, and then you can send out your troops. Do you understand?"
"yes!"
At this time, Zhao Cheng asked doubtfully: "Eunuch Lu, but we have such a large-scale battle. If we attack Shu Kingdom, the Miao Kingdom will definitely get the news. They might take this opportunity to kill us. We only have this Fengcheng!"
"This is indeed a very troublesome matter."
Lu Yun had naturally thought of this a long time ago, "Let's make a feint to the east and attack in the west. This will not only alert the Miao Kingdom, but also make the Shu Kingdom relax its vigilance."
"Tonight, we'll send two to three thousand cavalrymen to attack the Miao Kingdom. We need to make a big show of force. They won't be able to see clearly at night, so we need to carry a lot of torches."
"We need to make the Miao Kingdom mistakenly believe that we have sent out the majority of our troops, and we also need to let the Shu Kingdom know."
"Under such circumstances, I launched a surprise attack, and you are just trying to scare the Miao army and give them a false formation."
"Absolutely no real fighting, try not to fight, and if a fight breaks out, retreat immediately. Do you understand?"
After hearing Lu Yun's words, everyone present was stunned. How could it be like this?
Wow! Eunuch Lu is still awesome.
After giving the instructions, Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
When no one was around, Liang Jing stepped forward and asked, "Are you really planning to lead the cavalry and launch an attack? But you're just an ordinary person."
"No..." Lu Yun shook his head and took out a small box.
"You don't know that when I encountered the saint from the Miao country, I actually found five pills on her body."
"I didn't notice it at first, but when I was flipping through the treasure bag, I saw the box inside."
"Ah? You're really lucky."
