    ?

    "So where should we start?"

    Zhong Xi asked Zhou Heng, since he has decided to take the initiative, he must find a breakthrough, and he can't keep shouting slogans in Macheng.

    "Yesterday, I asked Tian Zhang and Pang Zhong to observe the terrain. I found that the camp of the soldiers and horses of the Southern Tang Dynasty was close to the water source!"

    Zhou Heng pointed to the map and said something.

    Water is an essential existence. No one can do without water, especially when marching and fighting. Many people choose to station troops near rivers and lakes.

    "Water source?"

    "That's right, I suggest that we cut off the water source for the Southern Tang army. Without water, they will be defeated."

    Zhou Heng tapped the location of the water source lightly and said, the battle between the two armies does not necessarily have to be a life-and-death struggle, and the competition for resources can also determine the outcome of the battle.

    "That's a good proposal."

    Everyone agrees that if they occupy the water source, they have the initiative.

    "It's not too late, Hou Wei, Zhong Xi, Zhen Feng, Pang Zhong, the four of you led an army of 30,000 people to cut off the water source for the Southern Tang army." Zhou Heng began to send orders and deploy tasks.

    "Tian Zhang, Lu Yue, and Mu Guang led an army of 20,000 to ambush. I believe Zhu Houde knows the importance of water sources. Once he knows that we are fighting for water sources, he will definitely send troops to snatch them. You can take the opportunity to fight."

    Zhou Heng told everyone about the strategic deployment.

    "do you understand?"

    Zhou Heng asked one last question.

    "Understood!"

    Everyone nodded in unison.

    "Then go!"

    Zhou Heng asked everyone to prepare for action.

    "Your Highness, what are you doing?" Everyone looked at Zhou Heng, they all went out, what did Zhou Heng do in Macheng.

    "I'm waiting for everyone's triumphant return!" Zhou Heng said very confidently. In fact, Zhou Heng also learned this method from Nan Tang.

    Southern Tang used food and grass to deceive the Baizhan army to go out of the city to make a surprise attack. He used water to force the Southern Tang army to come out and fight them. Both sides had the same purpose

    In the afternoon, the army set off from Macheng.

    Zhou Heng stood on the tower and watched the Hundred Zhan Army leave Macheng.

    And the other side.

    "Water source?"

    Zhu Houde looked at the note in his hand in the camp of the Central Army of the Southern Tang Dynasty. There were only two words, but it was enough to explain many things. Could it be that Zhou Heng wanted to cut off their water source.

    "Marshal, what does this mean?"

    "Zhou Heng wants to cut off our water source." Zhu Houde put down the note and said. It has to be said that Zhou Heng's move was really ruthless. If Zhou Heng really succeeded, they might have to withdraw their troops.

    "Since we already know Zhou Heng's intentions, shall we ambush the army at the water source, and when the Baizhan army comes over, we will kill them directly."

    It was suggested.

    "If that's the case, Zhou Heng might become suspicious!" One person said worriedly, they were ambushing at the water source, it was impossible for Zhou Heng to be smart enough not to doubt this matter.

    "If you are suspicious, be suspicious. What does this matter have to do with us." Someone said disapprovingly, since Zhou Kai is not one of them anyway.

    "That's right, ambush me near the water source, this time I will let Zhou Heng taste what it's like to fail." Zhu Houde immediately passed on the order.

    Zhu Houde thinks the same as the person just now, even if Zhou Heng is suspicious, so what, Zhou Kai is not one of them.

    "good."

    According to Zhu Houde's order, everyone immediately led the army to the location of the water source to ambush

    "We bid farewell!"

    At the fork in the road, Hou Wei and Lu Yue said goodbye. One of them was going to the water source, and the other was going to ambush halfway. Although things were related, they were not in the same place.

    "Okay, be careful!"

    "The same to you!"

    The two sides said goodbye and led their troops towards their respective destinations

    Lu Yue, Tian Zhang and the others led 20,000 people towards their ambush.

    "its not right!"

    After walking for nearly several hours, Tian Zhang felt something was wrong.

    "What's wrong?"

    Lu Yue asked, now Lu Yue dare not underestimate people like Tian Zhang, they are all Zhou Heng's guards, and they have their own extraordinary skills.

    "There are people passing by here!"

    Tian Zhang said.

    "It's nothing to pass by people, that road doesn't leave people.??" Some people felt a little funny after hearing Tian Zhang's words. This road is for people to walk, and it would be strange if no one walked.

    Many people began to feel that Tian Zhang was making a fuss.

    "That's right, isn't this road just for people to walk?"

    One of them asked a little tirelessly.

    "It's not what you said, there are a lot of people, at least tens of thousands!" Tian Zhang got off his horse and looked at the official road in front of him.

    This time everyone was dumbfounded.

    It is not a problem for one or two people to walk, but it is different for tens of thousands of people.

    Tens of thousands of people must be the army.

    Both Lu Yue and Mu Guang immediately got off their horses and stood beside Tian Zhang, "Are you sure?" Mu Guang asked Tian Zhang. It wasn't that he didn't believe Tian Zhang, but he thought it was better to be more cautious about this matter.

    If it is tens of thousands, it must be the soldiers and horses of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

    "I used to be a hunter. I usually observe the places where the prey walk to judge the prey, the number of prey, the speed and habits of the prey."

    Tian Zhang replied to Mu Guang's words.

    Tian Zhang led the two of them to both sides of the official road.

    "Look!" Tian Zhang pointed to the grass on both sides of the official road, "There are obviously traces of trampling inside, how could there be such stampede marks if there were only one or two people, and there is also dust falling from the grass and leaves.  Nowhere does the dust come from when there is no wind. It must have been raised by someone passing by."

    "Also, look at the soil on the official road. This is the place where the two armies fought. It is impossible for ordinary people to appear here, and they don't leave often. The layer of soil on the surface of the official road will inevitably harden, but the soil is extremely soft.  , It was obviously formed after everyone trampled on it."

    In order to prove what he said, Tian Zhang deliberately picked up the loose soil on the ground and lifted it up, and the loose soil turned into dust and flew away.

    The road that people often take is different from the road that people don't take, and the road that people take is different from the road that people don't take.

    Tens of thousands of people have passed by, that is, a grinder has no difference, so the layer of soil on the surface of the official road will loosen.

    Judging from these Tian Zhang, there must be a large number of people passing by here, at least a large number of tens of thousands of people.

    "According to what you said, where did they go?" Lu Yue looked at Tian Zhang and asked. After Tian Zhang's careful analysis, Lu Yue really began to believe Tian Zhang's words.

    "Water source!"

    Tian Zhang thought for a while and said.

    He couldn't think of any other place besides this.

    "Water source? This is impossible, how do they know that we are going to seize the water source?" Mu Guang said in a daze, their plan was just decided in the morning, how could Nan Tang know.

    "There's something wrong with this matter. If it's really the source of water, Hou Wei and the others will be in danger." Lu Yue said with a serious expression, frowning.

    It is better to believe what is there than to believe what is not.

    They can't afford to gamble on this matter.

    "Order the army to catch up with Hou Wei and the others immediately, we will not ambush!" Lu Yue was also decisive and directly chose to change his strategy.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
