"So, we have to..."

Li Shuangwan pointed at the map and then at the sand table, telling him what she knew about Ava's military strategies and his possible ideas on how Yongzhou should use troops.

Inside the commander's tent, not only the generals but even Gu Xingyan was listening attentively.

In fact, they had already analyzed it in detail this afternoon, but now listening to Li Shuangwan's words, they had a different opinion. It turned out that this girl's knowledge and strategy were definitely not comparable to those of ordinary girls in the boudoir.

The more Hongshuang listened, the more admiration appeared on her face. They were both women, so why was there such a big difference between them?

Originally, when she was working as a secret agent in Northern Jin, she was able to handle men with ease and thought she was very capable. But now, compared with Ayan, the difference is like heaven and earth.

Shu Wenbo straightened his back proudly, as if to show off to everyone, look, she is my, Shu Wenbo's younger sister.

Even Cui Jingyu who was behind the crowd looked at Li Shuangwan with admiration. She had such talent. What blind eye had she taken a fancy to Ling Heng, a hypocrite, in her previous life?

Looking at Gu Xingyan again, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Xingyan took over the conversation and simply added two sentences.

Then he swept his eyes across everyone's faces and ordered, "Pass on my order. At 1:00 a.m. tomorrow, launch a massive attack on Huaizhou. You must capture Huaizhou before dark and drive out the Ava army."

After driving out Huaizhou, the next target is Rangcheng. He will let Ava take his soldiers and go back and forth from where they came from, and he will also make the king of Zhao pay the price for his ambition just like in his previous life!

"Yes!"

The sun rises late in the north, and it takes at least 2:30 in the morning for the sun to rise fully.

Gu Xingyan gave the order in a deep voice: "He Si."

"To!"

"Choose fifty people from the vanguard camp, sneak into Huaizhou City from here, and find ways to burn their existing food and grass. Once you succeed, send out a signal immediately."

"Yes!"

"Can it be done?"

He Si straightened his back: "I guarantee to complete the task!"

At this time, Jia Cheng suddenly came in and said, "Master, Hai Dongqing is back. You are right. The original grain transportation route was fake. The real grain has arrived in Qiuyueli."

Sure enough!

Gu Xingyan immediately walked to the front of the map. Qiuyueli was a small town between Rangcheng and Huaizhou. The grain trucks were extremely heavy and could not move fast, but they could reach Huaizhou before midnight at the latest.

It seems that the siege time has to be advanced.

With food in hand, there is no need to panic. Once the Zhao army gets the food, its morale will surely boost.

They only had an army of 300,000 that they had just assembled, while the 300,000 troops in Ava's hands were unstoppable.

Although the two armies have equal numbers of men, they are incomparable.

"Change the siege time to midnight!"

All the generals responded in unison.

"Liang Tianyou."

"To!"

"You lead 3,000 men. I want you to intercept Zhaoguo's grain and grass before it arrives in Huaizhou at 12:00 tonight. If you can't transport it, burn it!"

"Yes!"

"Are three thousand people enough?"

"That's enough!"

"Very good. Jin Haijiang, Cheng Yuansi, Wu Peikun, Ma Jingwei."

"Here!" the four of them responded in unison.

"The four of you will each lead 60,000 troops from the east, south, west, and north gates of Huaizhou City. After receiving He Si's signal, launch a general attack at the same time. Be careful to hide."

"Yes!"

"The remaining 60,000 men will follow me and attack directly through the main gate."

"Yes, we follow the commander's order." All the soldiers responded in unison.

Li Shuang stepped forward at night: "General, Shu Yanyan asked to lead 500 soldiers to the tower, why did you open the way?"

"No!" Gu Xingyan denied flatly.

However, before he could tell the reason, Li Shuangwan interrupted him: "Marshal, please listen to me first."

Gu Xingyan frowned slightly. This battle was the most crucial, yet also the most dangerous. In his previous life, he had fought with Ava for a year, during which both of them had wins and losses.

If the last battle had not been fought in the middle of winter, Zhao would have been short of supplies, and with the 300,000 troops heading to Daliang, the battle line would have been too long, the food supply would have been insufficient, and the morale of the army would have been unstable.

After he learned the news, he launched a massive attack with his entire army, and finally trapped the demoralized Ava army in the valley of Rangcheng. It was not easy for him to capture Ava alive.

Li Shuangwan looked solemnly at Gu Xingyan, who looked obviously displeased.

"As far as I know, there are eighteen powerful crossbows on the towers of Huaizhou. Each crossbow can fire twenty sharp arrows at the same time. Eighteen crossbows can fire three hundred and sixty sharp arrows at the same time."

"If they were to fire at the tower from above, it would be a huge threat to our soldiers."

Li Shuangwan smiled at Gu Xingyan again, "So, I will take the initiative to destroy these 18 crossbows! After the crossbows are destroyed, I will immediately go down the tower to open the city gate and welcome the army into the city. Please allow me, Marshal!"

Li Shuangwan saluted him.

All the soldiers looked at Gu Xingyan again. This girl was a disciple of Master Sanqing, and her reputation was well-deserved.

Gu Xingyan pursed his thin lips, staring at Li Shuangwan without saying a word.

The soldiers looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

Seeing that he remained silent, Li Shuangwan stood up and spoke in a much softer voice, staring at the man with all kinds of emotions in his eyes: "I am sure, please believe me."

Gu Xingyan sighed softly, and finally nodded: "I'll give you a thousand people."

"No, too many people may not be a good thing. I will go and pick the people myself later. Five hundred people will be enough."

"No, you must rest for two hours first. I will order people to gather together the thousand soldiers with the best martial arts skills in the army. After you have rested for two hours, you can choose. It will take only a quarter of an hour."

Li Shuangwan knew that if she didn't even agree to this, Gu Xingyan would definitely be angry: "Yes."

Gu Xingyan turned to Shu Wenbo and Hong Shuang. Both of them were very skilled in martial arts, and it would be impossible to stop them from going.

He gave the order: "Shu Wenbo, Hongshuang."

"arrive."

"You two follow Miss Shu Yanyan and help her destroy the eighteen crossbows on the city wall."

The two thought that their master would not assign them any tasks, so upon hearing this, they immediately shouted, "Yes!"

"Remember, be safe."

Shu Wenbo smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Jiu. Ayan is my little sister and I will definitely protect her."

Hong Shuang also said: "Master, please rest assured. Miss A Yan's life is Hong Shuang's life. Hong Shuang will never allow the enemy to hurt her in the slightest."

Shu Wenbo glanced at her calmly.

Gu Xingyan nodded, and then he looked at everyone: "Everyone, follow my orders!"

"Yes!"

Liang Tianyou was the first to rush out of the tent. He had the most important task. If he could rob Zhaoguo's food or burn it, even if General Ava had extraordinary abilities, he would not be able to suppress the panic of the army because of the lack of food and grass.

If only a few people knew about the panic, it would spread quickly throughout the army like a plague.

Once your mind is in chaos, it will be difficult to win the battle.
