    street pavilion

    Wen Chou stood on his horse and raised his head, looking at the Qin camp on Maiji Cliff in the distance.

    From a distance, everything in the enemy camp is normal, and there is no sign of low morale at all.

    Even Wen Chou could vaguely see that many Qin soldiers were still drying their clothes on the camp fence

    Those two water sources have been cut off for four days. Logically speaking, the Qin army on the mountain should have cut off the water long ago. At this moment, the soldiers must be thirsty and their morale is low.

    But judging from the current situation, the morale of the Qin army does not seem to have been affected in any way, and they do not seem to be afraid of the water source being cut off at all, otherwise how could they dare to wash clothes "luxury"

    Wen Chou was very depressed and strange. He went back to the big tent full of dissatisfaction.

    Xu Shu was pacing in the tent. He was also full of suspicion. He didn't quite understand the Qin army's situation.

    "Could it be that the Qin army's calmness is just an appearance, just to confuse us? In fact, they are already hungry and thirsty and can't hold on any longer?" Xu Shu guessed.

    Wen Chou said: "Even if the Qin army wants to confuse us, there is no need to use such extravagant means as washing clothes. After all, that is life-saving water."

    Wen Chou¡¯s doubts denied Xu Shu¡¯s guess.

    When the two of them were suspicious and speculating, a soldier outside the tent came to report that it was Ma Di, the partial general, who had escorted a hundred carts of grain and grass from Qian County to the camp and wanted to see the hussar general.

    "This brat Ma Su even followed him to the street pavilion. It seems that he is eager to make meritorious deeds," Wen Chou said with a sneer.

    When Yan Liang ordered Ma Su to assist Wen Chou in the front army, Wen Chou felt that Ma Su was too young and not qualified to fight alongside him, so he left Ma Su in Qixian County and ordered him to be in charge of food and grass.

    Xu Shu smiled and said: "This Ma Youchang is quite talented. I heard that Your Majesty appreciates him very much. Your Majesty specially sent him to the front army this time. It is obvious that he intends to cultivate and train him. Why should the hussar general bother Your Majesty?"

    Xu Shu was good at observing Yan Liang¡¯s thoughts, so he pointed it out to Wen Chou

    "That's it," Wen Chou suddenly understood, "Then tell Ma Su to come."

    Not long after, young Ma Su walked into the tent and greeted him

    Wen Chou asked Ma Di a few questions about the food and fodder matter and praised Ma Di for his success, so he asked him to stay in the army and consult on military plans.

    Ma Su was very happy and thanked Wen Chou, so he asked for advice on the current situation of the Jieting Battle.

    Xu Shu admired this talented young man quite a lot, so he patiently explained the current situation to Ma Su in detail.

    "It's a wonder that the Qin army was able to last so long after its water source was cut off," Ma Di said in surprise.

    Xu Shu sighed and said: "This is exactly what we are suspicious of. You Chang, you might as well think about it and see if there is any good strategy to relieve the hussar general's worries."

    Ma Su pondered for a while, then frowned and pondered, looking like he was thinking hard.

    Wen Chou glanced at Xu Shu and just smiled. He didn't seem to have much hope for Ma Su.

    After a moment, Ma Su's eyes suddenly lit up: "General, the Qin army can still last for so long even if its water source is cut off. I will guess whether the Qin army still has another dark water source to provide water for it, but our army failed to do so.  Discover"

    ??Dark water source?

    Wen Chou and Xu Shu were both shocked, as if they were suddenly inspired.

    "Yes, You Chang is right. Since Cao Zhang is well versed in the art of war, he should know how to camp in the mountains. The water source may be cut off. He knew this, but he still stationed troops on the mountains, and he was so fearless, which shows that he was not worried at all.  The water source has been cut off. If this is the case, there is no other explanation except that there is a dark water source on the mountain."

    Xu Shu added something, which made Wen Chou even more enlightened.

    "Good boy, you are really smart. No wonder His Majesty sent you to assist me. If you are right, I will remember you for your great contribution." Wen Chou was also straight-tempered, and he praised Ma Di excitedly.

    Ma Su didn¡¯t dare to be proud, he raised his hands and said with a smile: ¡°General Hussar, I¡¯ve given you the award.¡±

    Wen Chou laughed loudly and was in a good mood. He immediately ordered the scouts to go out and dig three feet into the ground around Maiji Cliff to re-explore.

    Two days later, the scouts finally discovered the source of the dark water, and also discovered a separate camp of the Qin Army.

    That camp is the three thousand Qin army commanded by Wu Zhi

    Wen Chou was greatly surprised, so he ordered Ma Di to lead 7,000 elite troops to capture the other camp that night, seize the dark water source, and completely cut off the water supply to the main force of the Qin army in Maijiya.

    Ma Su understood that this was the hussar general giving him the opportunity to not only offer advice but also to attack in battle.

    By seizing this camp, the Qin army on Maiji Cliff will be without water. In just a few days, the entire army will inevitably collapse. At that time, the street pavilion will be destroyed.If ?? is captured by the Chu army, the door to Longxi will be opened.

    And he, Ma Su, will be the first to seize the street pavilion. With such achievements, his status in the army will surely rise to the top in the future.

    Ma Su was very excited. He knew clearly what this battle meant to him.

    However, Ma Su, who was excited, did not lose his cool.

    After some observation, Ma Su found that the terrain of the Qin army's auxiliary camp was not as steep as that of the main camp at Maijiya, but because it had just been discovered not long ago, it was impossible to make an accurate judgment on the number of troops inside.

    With only 7,000 elite soldiers, Ma Su was not sure whether he could conquer this fortress.

    After some thinking, Ma Su quickly thought that the visibility in the night was extremely poor. Although he did not know the strength of the opponent's troops, the opponent naturally could not see the number of his troops. Ma Su decided to use some

    So when he led his army to the foot of Biying Mountain, he immediately ordered the sergeants to light more torches, two for each man, and one to hang on the horse's head.

    In the blink of an eye, a long fiery dragon lit up in the dark night, with countless stars. At first glance, it seemed like there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

    Ma Su never thought of a sneak attack, because the Qin army's barracks were dangerous and he didn't have many soldiers and horses, so he might not be able to defeat them with a sneak attack.

    His idea was to use this tactic to create the illusion of a surprise attack, forcing the Qin army into chaos. At this time, he would take the opportunity to attack. In this way, even if the enemy is outnumbered, we can take advantage of the chaos to win.

    In the dark night, the Chu army suddenly approached, quickly alarming the enemy camp, and the Qin camp suddenly sounded a warning gong.

    At this time, Wu Zhi had already undressed and was lying down. He was about to fall asleep in a daze.

    Since the Chu army surrounded the mountain, Wu Zhi¡¯s camp has not been noticed by the Chu army. Therefore, it has not been attacked for several days, as if it was outside the war.

    In such a safe environment, Wu Zhi's spirit gradually relaxed. From the beginning, he slept with his clothes on, and in the end, he simply took off his armor and slept, trying to feel comfortable.

    The sound of gongs outside the tent soon woke Wu Zhi from his half-asleep state. His general instinct made him realize what had happened, and he jumped up from the couch in a hurry.

    "General, something bad has happened. Tens of thousands of Chu troops are coming from the bottom of the mountain!" A deputy general broke into the tent and screamed at Wu Zhi.

    Wu Zhi's heart was shaken, and he hurriedly rushed out, riding his horse straight to the camp fence.

    Zhu Ma looked down at the bottom of the hillside. Wu Zhi took a breath of cold air, but saw the dense firelight coming from all over the mountains and fields. At a glance, it was as bright as the stars in the sky.

    "Could it be that all the Chu army attacked me?" Wu Zhi looked shocked and panicked on the spot.

    "General, the Chu army is about to attack. What should we do?" The lieutenants were also panicked.

    Wu Zhi frowned secretly and gritted his teeth secretly: "Damn it, this Liang Wang who made his own decisions is really hurting this general."

    There are less than three thousand Qin troops here, and the fortress is far less dangerous than the main camp. If the Chu army comes in full force, Wu Zhi will not have the confidence to defend it.

    "Kill, kill all the enemy troops!"

    "Kill them all, leave no one behind!"

    The Chu army at the foot of the mountain shouted loudly, and the tide of killing shouts made the Qin army tremble with fear.

    Wu Zhi pondered for a moment, then turned his horse and shouted: "Retreat, the entire army quickly abandons the camp and retreats from the other side."

    After giving the order, all the lieutenants on the left and right were shocked. One of them said: "The King of Liang ordered the general to guard this dark water source. If the general retreats without fighting, wouldn't he be violating the general order of the King of Liang?"

    "Your Majesty's decree for us is to establish a stronghold in the street pavilion. King Liang has already violated the decree first. I am only preserving my strength for Your Majesty. How can I say that I have violated the order?" Wu Zhi made an excuse for himself and reined in his horse.  Just leave

    Three thousand Qin troops opened the camp gate from the other side, rushed to the front of the Chu army to attack the mountain, and hurriedly abandoned the camp.

    Ma Su at the foot of the hillside did not know that the Qin army on the mountain had withdrawn. He felt that the bluff was enough, so he ordered the entire army to go out and attack the enemy camp in one go.

    When the soldiers of the Chu army who had suppressed their energy went up the mountain with murderous intent, they were surprised to find that the entire enemy camp was deserted. Those timid Qin soldiers were frightened by their bluff and directly  He abandoned the camp and fled

    Ma Su captured this camp effortlessly

    Entering the enemy camp, Ma Su looked around and soon discovered the source of the dark water. He immediately ordered the sergeants to work together to cut off the water source. At the same time, Pegasus sent people to report the victory to Wen Chou.

    ¡­¡­

    At dawn, Qin camp at Maijiya

    Cao Zhang was as usual, the sky was still dark and the soldiers were still familiar with the situation.While sleeping, Cao Zhang had already woken up and was preparing for an early morning inspection.

    When Cao Zhang gets up early in the morning, the first thing he does is naturally wash up.

    The soldiers brought up a basin of water that had been prepared last night. Cao Zhang used up the basin of water in two gulps. He wiped his face with a towel and signaled to the soldiers next to him to get another basin of water.

    While waiting for a while, Cao Zhang put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the tent with his chin in his hands, thinking about his future battle plan.

    Just when I was thinking about it, I saw the soldier just now running into the camp from outside in a panic, holding an empty basin in his hand, with a distorted expression on his face

    As soon as the pro-army troops entered the camp, they exclaimed: "Your Majesty, something big something bad is going to happen!"

    "I am thinking about important things. Why are you so panicked?" Cao Zhang shouted with eyes wide open.

    "Water, the water is out!"

    Cao Zhang was startled for a moment and couldn¡¯t figure out what ¡°the water is out¡± meant.

    After hesitating for a moment, Cao Zhang¡¯s expression suddenly changed drastically (To be continued)
