Chapter 279
The night was dark, and above the city wall, a round of bright moon rose, shining extremely brightly on the white military tents of Chang'an City, and the light and shadow were indistinct and mottled.

The misty and crystal clear air of water and dew is dense on the green grass beside the tent. Under the moonlight, there is a touch of round and emerald green brilliance, refracted into the half-closed and half-opened tent door.

"The Yue army stood still. Is it because they don't know the strength of the troops in Chang'an City, or are they planning to trap our army to death, so that the king of Yue will be wiped out if the food is exhausted?" General Xuanyuan was wearing armor, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

Jimo Ze smiled and said, "It's not that the King Yue didn't know the strength of the troops in Chang'an. He stayed in Chang'an for so long, so how could he not know the strength of the troops in Chang'an. He trapped our army, so he didn't know. My subordinates Heavenly Eye, how many are there?"

"So, he didn't dare to take any risks. He wanted to wait for the troops from the Yue Kingdom to arrive one after another, and then conquer them in one fell swoop. Anyway, Chang'an is already surrounded by water, and it is already an isolated city. He doesn't worry about our army at all Reinforcements are coming."

Shui Yanqing continued to add, she pointed the sword at the position of the Yue army, her eyes turned cold, and she continued to say to the generals: "This is where the Yue army is. Tactics. Therefore, he chose the commanding heights, so that arrows can be fired, but water can’t be submerged.”

All the generals nodded, expressing that what Shui Yanqing said was true. One commander cursed bitterly: "Although our army has a high city wall, it can't stand up to his siege. His Yue army is on the commanding heights, using trees as a cover. Being secretive and gaining an advantage, and having enough food and grass, this battle is not easy to fight."

There was already a sigh among the generals, and they all lowered their heads, but they heard Shui Yanqing shouted: "Everyone! It's not all like this."

"Oh? What's the commander's opinion?" The general at the side raised his eyebrows when he heard Shui Yanqing's shout. He didn't quite believe that this woman could come up with any good tactics.

"It's not a high opinion. It's just an order in the face of danger to solve the difficulties in Chang'an." Shui Yan listened to the dissatisfaction in the general's tone, smiled slightly, and didn't care about him, and then said slowly: "Excuse me, generals, now What season is it?"

The generals all looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering if this handsome guy is stupid?Can't even tell what season it is?

After a low laugh, a general said with great reluctance: "Marshal Qi, it's autumn now."

"That's right. Everyone knows that it's autumn. This autumn, I'm afraid that the trees will wither and the grass will all wither." Shui Yanqing glanced at the generals indifferently, as if she was not joking at all.

The generals couldn't help laughing, this commander is really stupid, he started to feel sad when the enemy is in front of him? ?
Just when everyone was disappointed, they heard a sound of "pop!" Shui Yanqing pointed the tip of the sword in the woods where the Yue army was, and his clear voice lit up: "Everyone, please look! Although he, the king of Yue, occupies the commanding heights, , and among the trees again! But I forgot a fatal point! It is autumn, and the trees and bushes will be ignited when they meet the fire! Of course, the water cannot drown him, but what about the fire?"

Loud voices of questioning fell on the ears of the generals, and exploded like thunder!

All the generals were stunned, and then someone exclaimed "Wonderful! Wonderful!", and then a thunderous "Okay!" burst out!And the eyes of all the generals also changed from disdain and indifference to awe!
Someone even asked cautiously: "May I ask the coach, when will the fire attack be carried out?"

Shui Yanqing slowly moved the sword to another part of the forest, her eyes turned cold, she smiled, and said: "Don't worry, general, just attack with fire, won't he, King Yue, retreat?"

"That's right! We will definitely retreat!" The general's eyes followed Shui Yanqing's sword, and he suddenly realized: "The commander means to ambush here in the woods?"

"Yes. That's right. Send 100 people here." Shui Yanqing smiled and said firmly.

"Why here? And how can 100 people be enough?!" Some of the generals immediately raised objections!

"It's enough." The general's eyes already showed admiration, and he said: "The terrain here is dangerous, with high mountains on both sides. And behind the mountains is a stream of water. Just imagine, when the Vietnamese army is attacked by fire, The first reaction must be to find a water source, right? Because we need to save food and grass. Our army only needs to ambush 100 people on the top of the mountain in advance, shoot through them with rocks and arrows, and wipe out 1000 of them.

The general sighed, he had fought for half his life, and he had never seen such a tactic that knew how to adapt to local conditions and surprise. This Shui Yanqing was indeed the battle of Yunling, and it was not a fluke to win.

"That's right. The general is indeed experienced in hundreds of battles." Shui Yan said approvingly.

The general smiled ashamedly.

"This alone is not enough." Shui Yan moved the hilt of her sword, moved to the place where the fire was originally attacked, and said slowly: "Here, it is burning, a large area is burning, and the Vietnamese army must be busy retreating. Now At that time, here, there is no defense, I need someone who can do light work, cross this sea of ​​fire, go to Luoyang and nearby fiefs to deliver letters. Without reinforcements, once the king of Yue is angry and counterattacks, with our strength, we can only resist for a while."

"Leave this to Tianyan. There should be no problem." Mo Ze always had a proud smile on his face, and his eyes never moved away from Shui Yanqing, full of appreciative smiles.

Shuiyan turned her face slightly warmed up, and continued: "Then I'll have to work."

Just when the generals thought that this tactic was perfect, they saw Shui Yanqing pointing the hilt of her sword at the river behind the mountain, and she said loudly: "It's a rare opportunity to boost the morale of the army, and it can't be passed so easily. The King of Yue. After passing through the high mountains, most of the King Yue’s army must still forcefully reach the river here. Without food and grass, they will definitely cross the river by force to plunder the food and grass on the other side, so as to support the war.”

"So?" The general was a little confused, but he faintly felt that this strategy was the most important thing.

"I need someone to poison the food in this area in advance. Then pretend to be fleeing to confuse the Vietnamese army." Shuiyan smiled, put down the hilt of her sword, and gently carried it behind her. His eyes were cold, and he swept across all the generals present.

"wonderful!"

"It's really wonderful!"

"Hahahaha! The King of Yue just lost the battle, and the whole army was poisoned! I don't know how he died!"

"The commander-in-chief is talented, it's really a brilliant move!"

The generals suddenly became excited, and for a while, there was a lot of voices in the small curtain!
Shui Yanqing just smiled silently, but clenched the hilt of the sword tightly, and shook it fiercely, with a serious look on her face.

I hope he is not in the army.
