Sun Tzu's Art of War said that soldiers are deceitful, showing that they can't, and using it to show that they don't.

Go up to the army and attack the enemy's soldiers without fighting.

Throughout the ages, military strategists have thousands of tactics.Winning without a single soldier is undoubtedly the most ideal result.

However, it is impossible for the two armies to confront each other without bloodshed or sacrifice.If not, the Yan clan will destroy the country, or Dingkang will fall, and the war has not subsided for more than ten years.

Such things as strategy cannot be accomplished overnight, Yun Jie decided to put practical tactics and formations first.

A small sand table was added to Han Ji's big tent.

After the daily practice, it started in the evening, and Yun Jie buried himself in Han Ji's tent.

At first, Han Ji didn't teach anything personally, leaving Yunjie alone to familiarize himself with the terrain.

After he has mastered it by heart, he will practice the art of war according to the art of war.

For a long time, the candles in Han Ji's tent were always brightly lit all night.Often in the tent, one person has one book, each does not interfere, or Yun Jie holds the art of war and moves between the topographic map and the sand table alone.On the other hand, Han Ji answered only when he had questions, fell asleep when he was tired from watching, and didn't care about the cloud steps under the candle and looked stupid.

The relationship between the two of them is neither warm nor hot.

However, Yun Jie was grateful to Han Ji, probably as much as the soldiers he saved were to him, and Han Ji had indeed saved him.

For this reason, he is eager to learn something.

Only one thing bothered him.

No matter how late he went to bed, Tong Huai was always waiting for him.

After repeated persuasion to no avail, he followed him.

On this day, when the two were discussing the next battle strategy, Han Ji was asked to leave by the commander, so Yun Jie returned the account early.

After a few generals' tents, I saw Tong Huai chatting with a guard.

Tong Huai quickly ran over at a wrong step, and said with a smile, "General Zuo, why did you pay back the account so early today?"

Yun Jie didn't show his face, turned a few corners and led him to a slightly open space, then lowered his voice and said,

"There is a ban in the military, you are not allowed to leave your post without authorization, you have been in the barracks for more than a year and you don't know this rule?"

Tong Huai felt aggrieved, and said weakly, "I will remember all the military regulations."

Yun Jie raised his eyes and looked at him, "Did you commit the crime knowingly?"

Tong Huai lowered his head and lowered his voice, "No... I just feel bored and see no one around, so I..."

"I said you don't have to wait, you just go to bed at the same time as other soldiers, and I don't need anyone to wait on you."

Tong Huai silently pouted.

Yun Jie didn't mean to blame, but seeing Tong Huai getting more and more aggrieved, Xu's tone was a little heavier, and he sighed and put his hands on his shoulders, "Military regulations can't be broken, and if you order it, you can stop it, and you can't do it again in the future."

Tong Huai's condition did not improve, Weng Sheng said angrily, "The former general's bodyguard not only waited on him, but also served him in bed..."

Yun Jie listened half-clearly, then lowered his hands automatically, took a firm look at Tong Huai, and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Tong Huai raised his head, blinked his big watery eyes, and said word by word, "Serve the bed."

Yun Jie was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to turn the corner to understand the meaning of serving the bedroom, and he said in a low voice, "Nonsense."

"real!"

"impossible."

"How can it be impossible if you love me?" Tong Huai answered smoothly.

Yun Jie's face collapsed, "It's shameless to seek promotion in this way. Go back to the camp."

Tong Huai stayed where he was, grabbed his hand, and said urgently, "I don't seek promotion, I just admire the general..."

Yun Jie stared straight for a while, then pushed Tong Huai's hand away, and let out a deep breath, "You are still young, don't go astray."

Tong Huai refused to give up, and asked, "Could it be that you and the one who joined the army..."

"Tong Huai!" Yun Jie interrupted sharply, suddenly annoyed, "Go back to the camp!"

At this time, a light cough came from the dark and a person came out,

"General Zuo, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you."

The two of them looked at the passers-by together, and Han Ji approached him swaggeringly, looking at Tong Huai with a smile on his face, "Why are the soldiers still in the camp at this hour?"

Just as Yun Jie was about to speak, Tong folded his fists and bowed, "This subordinate will leave." He glanced at Han Ji intentionally or unintentionally as he left.

Yun Jie took two steps back and saluted, "I don't know what's urgent?"

Han Ji glanced at him, gestured with one hand, stepped forward first, and walked slowly under the moonlight and fire, "Why don't you ask me what I heard?"

The voice of wanting to laugh or not laughing seemed to be joking, Yun Jie could hear it, so there was no need to ask, it must have been heard most of the time, he followed in a leisurely manner, and didn't ask.

Han Ji didn't get a response, so he turned his head and looked at him again, "Actually, such things do happen in the barracks."

Yun Jie didn't want to take up this topic, and he didn't want to know which generals were involved in such things.

In front of him, Han Ji thought about himself and said, "Although we can't see the light, it's just for consolation, and we all know that things are going to be bad, so if there is, just pretend it's not, just turn a blind eye and let it go."

Yun Jie was still speechless.

Han Ji stopped and said seriously, "Are you thinking that others see you like this and think you're promoted?"

Yun Jie's mind was hit by what was said, and he raised his eyelids, but hesitated to speak.

Han Ji smiled brightly, like a bright moon, "Don't worry, I have a good style since I was in the army. I don't have such hobbies, and no one will misjudge you."

This statement really worked, Yun Jie felt relieved and asked, "Is the Commander planning to attack Yan's army someday?"

Han Ji smiled, frowning, "You can say that."

"how?"

"Your upper body is slightly ill. King Qin's power in the capital is growing, and there is fear of chaos. I issued a military order to recapture the Weihe River in five years. Now it seems that it will not take five years. It is just around the corner, but I must return to Beijing as soon as possible. Escort."

"In this way, it is imminent to recover the Weihe River. As long as you win this battle, you can return to Beijing."

"Well. This battle is not easy to fight. As you know, there are 15 soldiers from the Yan clan in Suohongling five hundred miles away, and they will support each other with [-] soldiers from the Weihe River. Once a war starts, they can continuously send reinforcements."

Before they knew it, the two had arrived in the account.

The situation and current situation have been analyzed earlier, and the sand table shows that the river bed of the Weihe River is relatively high, and the Yan's army is stationed at the halfway point of the [-]th mile of the Weihe River. The old trees are intertwined and the camp is very solid.This area is about to enter the rainy season, and the heavy rain will last for a month, and the bottom of the Weihe River will become a pool of water, forming another barrier.

Yun Jie looked at the sand table and shook his head, the fire attack would not work.

But to fight, you must take advantage of the rainy season, it is difficult to march on dirt roads, and the reinforcements are five hundred miles away. If the Weihe River can be captured in one fell swoop, the Yan family will not need to send reinforcements, or there will be no time for reinforcements.

Han Ji saw him in a daze, and he couldn't think of a good strategy for a while, so he said, "Tomorrow afternoon, we will command the tent and discuss the soldiers. It's not too late to rest. The art of war depends on the accumulation of time, and now you have a general understanding. Don’t be too hasty afterwards.”

Yun Jie nodded in response, and exited the tent with his mind full of thoughts.

Cool night moon quiet.

He raised his head, looked at the star-dotted sky and took a deep breath, which was refreshing.

Suddenly, his cheeks felt cold, like drops of rain.He wiped off the water stains and hastened his pace.

But he lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, always thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy.

Speaking of water attack, during the Three Kingdoms period, Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army.Judging from the terrain, it is very similar to today.

According to the literature, there has never been a flood in the Weihe River since it was recorded.Digging dikes and flooding [-] enemy troops is like a fairy tale.

At noon the next day, all the generals who joined the army were in the handsome tent.

Yang Zhanwei sat in a handsome chair with a huge sand table in the middle.

The generals began to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the terrain of the battle situation.

Yun Jie listened silently, and they were all meaningless discussions, and he was asked to express his opinions, which were roughly the same.If there is no good strategy, you can only fight with your life with swords and spears. It has always been the case. The difference lies in the number of casualties and how long the war lasts.

The sentry cavalry came to report that Yan's [-] grain and grass arrived at Maoshi this morning.

At this time, Yun Jie suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a thought came from the bottom of his heart.

If you can't drown the Seventh Army, it's not impossible to flood the grain and grass camp.

He recalled the layout of Yan's camp.The deadliest thing about marching is being tired by too much food and grass. In order to prevent the enemy from stealing, most of the food and grass camps are located in the rear and are heavily guarded.

Yang Zhan saw Yun Jie in the crowd, from frowning to frowning, he didn't intend to ask him, after all, the soldiers who joined the army present didn't have any good ideas, and most likely Yun Jie was the same, which inevitably made him embarrassed.

Yang Zhan turned his gaze to Han Ji, and Han Ji met his eyes, hoping to ask him a question.

But Yun Jie thought about the same thing in this room, Shi Shiran stood up,

"There will be a strategy in the end, I don't know if it will work."

As soon as this remark came out, four people gathered together.

Yang Zhan smiled and waved his hands, "General Ling, please tell me, but it's okay."

Yun Jie glanced at Han Ji subconsciously, "The general thinks that water attack can be used."

There was an uproar immediately.The rainy season is approaching, can the water attack?Even if it rains heavily and Yan's camp is located at a high place, it is impossible for the Jinshan Mountain to be flooded with water. If this is the case, their own camp will not be able to escape being submerged.

Yang Zhan coughed heavily, "How to attack by water?"

The generals returned to silence, waiting for the newcomers to make jokes.

Yun Jie pretended that he had never heard the whispers of ridicule, and then said, "Dig the water of the Wei River and attack the enemy's food and grass camp."

A general interjected, "There is no shortage of food in this season, wild game is everywhere in the mountains and forests."

"It's not ruining the grain." Yun Jie said calmly.

At this moment, a voice popped out, "Destroy the salt."

Yun Jie looked at Han Ji and said affirmatively, "Yes, destroy the salt." Then he faced Yang Zhan, clasped his fists and sent him forward, "The last general begs for orders, and is willing to lead a hundred soldiers to go out day and night to the Weihe River and wait for the rain. Gradually rise, block the river to store water, and then dig the river to release the water."

Yang Zhan asked, "Just 100 people?"

"That's enough. The Weihe River is only two feet wide and five feet deep. Take sacks and build a wall with sand and stone."

Yang Zhan was full of confidence when he heard his words, and immediately agreed.

If this plan succeeds, the Yan family will be short of salt within two days, and its combat power will definitely drop sharply.If it doesn't work, it's harmless.
