After agreeing on details such as the time of dispatching troops and the method of contact, both sides received satisfactory responses and left.
In the carriage, Qiao Shaochu asked doubtfully: "My Lord, Yulian Pass is not a good place. When King Gong attacked this place before, he lost tens of thousands of soldiers. Moreover, those fire halberds are too heavy to be effective in the narrow terrain."
Tu Yufan leaned against the carriage, closed his eyes and said slowly, "Who said we are going to fight to the death at Yulian Pass?"
Qiao Shaochu asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty is not planning to attack? But the King of Wu will be suspicious if he sees that we are not sending troops, right?"
"Send troops, of course we will, otherwise he won't believe that we really want to attack King Gong with them." Tu Yufan raised his voice several degrees: "I have my own arrangements for this, you don't need to worry."
Qiao Shaochu did not doubt Tu Yufan. He had been feeling weak recently and would rather not overwork himself.
Hearing Qiao Shaochu's cough, Tu Yufan asked, "Is it useless to take medicine recently?"
Qiao Shaochu laughed at himself and said, "If it worked, I would have cured it long ago, and it wouldn't have dragged on until today. I just hope I can live a few more years and hear the news of my enemy's death."
During this period, Qiao Shaochu's health became weaker and weaker. Tu Yufan did not want to lose this talented person, so he looked for doctors everywhere and changed medicines one after another, but unfortunately, Qiao Shaochu's health was not good.
Tu Yufan thought that he could only sit in that position when the time came, and then announce it to the world and find a good doctor.
......
When the agreed date came, Zhang Ertou led his army northward, and the food and grass for logistical support also came by water from the area under Tu Yufan's command.
As for the King of Wu, he was sitting at a big table, eating with his mouth full of oil, accompanied by a charming beauty.
A spy hurried over and knelt down to report: "My Lord, Mo Fan's army is heading north, and their food and fodder are being transported by water."
The King of Wu wiped his mouth and revealed a hint of ruthlessness: "Everyone follow me to the battle. This time, we can't let my good brother be the emperor for too long, or he will get too proud!"
"yes!"
The King of Wu's army marched eastward, crossing the plain and the bridge over the Cang River, heading towards another exit of Shuangjie City, towards Jiyi Pass.
Prince Gong immediately assembled a large army and stationed its main forces at Jiyi Pass, and he did not dare to underestimate Tu Yufan.
After the war started, Tu Yufan and Zhang Ertou led a small team and quietly went to Jiyi Pass.
"Brother Zhang, wait for me here."
Arriving behind the enemy, Tu Yufan prepared to take the lead.
Zhang Ertou said nervously, "My Lord, you don't want to kill King Wu and his men alone, do you?"
Tu Yufan rolled his eyes at him: "Do you want me to die?"
The two armies were fighting fiercely, and they were protected like an iron barrel. He would not go up to them to seek death. He went around the rear and stared at the food and supplies that were heavily guarded.
At Tu Yufan's command, Zhang Ertou led his team to deliberately make a noise at the other end of the logistics point, attracting the soldiers to check. Tu Yufan sneaked in and collected all the food and grass into the space in just a few tens of seconds.
By the time the news came that King Wu's logistics had been looted, Zhang Ertou and Tu Yufan were already on their way to Yulian Pass.
Zhang Ertou's eyes widened as he asked curiously, "My Lord, where did you hide the King of Wu's food and grass? How inhuman! In just a few tens of seconds, they didn't even leave a single hair."
Tu Yufan glanced at him and said, "I told you to study and write well, but you just learned some curse words?"
Zhang Ertou shuddered, thinking of the days when he was forced to study, and immediately smiled foolishly, not daring to speak anymore.
In the distance, the bridge across the Cang River broke with a loud bang.
"This fire bomb is so powerful that it can easily blow up the bridge." Second General Xiao Chen exclaimed in amazement on the mountain.
Colleague Chu Xiong replied with a straight face: "The master said it was a bomb."
Xiao Chen had no intention of arguing with this stubborn guy, so he said helplessly: "Let the bombs go. The King of Wu is completely trapped now, and he can only fight to the death."
