Last night, the commander of the expeditionary army arrived at the camp.

"In the afternoon, I circled the hill where the rebels were stationed."

Su Cheng sat on a chair, tapping the table rhythmically with his fingers while saying slowly: "How should I put it, the rebel army's fortifications are laid out quite well. After two battles with the enemy's center route army and left route army,

During the war, the total number of our army dropped from 5,000 to 4,500, which is slightly less than the enemy. When the number is slightly less than the enemy, there is no way to capture this hill by force."

After listening to Su Cheng's words, the five thousand-man team captains looked at each other.

A thousand-man captain with conspicuous short red hair asked: "So, general, what should we do now? Do we want to request reinforcements?"

As soon as the red-haired Thousand-Man Captain finished speaking, another Thousand-Man Captain immediately said:

"General! Why don't we ask for reinforcements? Five-sixths of the rebel army has been defeated by us. This battle has been fought so far, and it can be regarded as a victory for our Britannian Empire! The enemy is now

There are only 5,000 people left trapped on a small hill. They can no longer overcome any big waves. I think the best strategy now is to ask for reinforcements and supplies, and then fight a war with the rebels! We will surround it for several months.

The rebel army without supplies will collapse without an attack!"

The suggestion of the captain of the Thousand-Man Team caused the other captains of the Thousand-Man Team to nod frequently, expressing their agreement with the captain's strategy.

However, only Su Cheng did not nod.

Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and chuckled.

"There's no need to go through the trouble of having to fight for supplies." Su Cheng waved his hand, "I already have a plan after circling the hill. If everything goes well, we will be on top of the hill tomorrow night.

have dinner!"

Su Cheng's words surprised Deng Jiaer and the five thousand-man team captains.

Deng Jiaer looked at Su Cheng in astonishment and said, "Sir, have you come up with a clever plan so quickly?"

"Ah, yes. But it's not really a brilliant idea."

"The enemy is guarding this hill and has many fortifications. The enemy is like a turtle sitting in a turtle shell. If we attack this turtle shell by force, we will only suffer heavy casualties, and in the end we may

No one can break through this turtle shell. So we have to find a way to let the turtle inside the shell come out. Once it comes out, it will be easy."

"But..." the red-haired captain of the Thousand-Man Squadron asked, "How can we get the enemy to come out of the turtle shell?"

"It makes them feel like there's no need to stay in a turtle shell anymore."

Su Cheng continued to knock on the wooden table rhythmically and began to make arrangements.

"We will now divide our army of 4,500 people into two parts, one part has 3,000 people, and the other part has 1,500 people. I will personally lead the 3,000 people and attack the hill early tomorrow morning!"

"Assault on the hill?!" the red-haired captain of the Thousand-Man Corps exclaimed, "Didn't you say that you can't conquer that hill with a force attack?"

"That's right, so I don't plan to capture this hill with only 3,000 people. Not only do I not plan to capture it, I also don't plan to attack it seriously. The 3,000 people tomorrow will pretend to be vulnerable and attack softly.

We were weak and our retreat was chaotic and disorderly. The purpose is to confuse the enemy and make them think that our Britannia army is vulnerable."

"If the leader of this rebel army still has any sense, he should be able to see how bad his current situation is. It is just a helpless move to stay on this hill. After all, he does not know the enemy's movements.

, acting rashly will only lead to destruction more easily."

"And if our Britannia army starts a war of supplies with him, he will be in trouble, so he must be very anxious now, eager to defeat our Britannia army, and then break this

It’s a stalemate, as long as we are defeated, he will still have a chance to strengthen his team and make a comeback.”

"Moreover, their group of rebels generally have the problem of being arrogant and underestimating the enemy. They all had this problem when they fought against the Anton Army and the Abel Army before. I observed the previous movements and achievements of the Abut Army and found that

There is a high probability that he also has this problem."

"What would a person who is eager to win and has the habit of being proud and underestimating the enemy think when he sees that the enemy's performance is very poor and vulnerable? He may rush down the mountain with his army to cover us, and if he wants to cover up our 3,000

A human army requires him to dispatch more than half of his troops. At this time, there will be a huge emptiness in the military strength on the hill."

"At this time, it was time for our other 1,500 troops to come out. We deployed these 1,500 troops in a hidden place tonight. When we found that the enemy's large troops were rushing down from the hills,

, these 1,500 people rushed up to the empty hill as quickly as possible, took control of the hill, and removed all the enemy flags on it and replaced them with those of our Britannia Empire.

flag, then go down the mountain and join the 3,000 people at the foot of the hill to attack the enemy troops rushing down the mountain."

"At this point, we have almost won. Imagine what the army rushing down the mountain would think when they find that their base camp is filled with the flags of the Britannian Empire."

After explaining all his plans, Su Cheng took his cup next to him and drank some water to moisten his dry throat, while giving the five thousand-man team captains and Deng Jiaer some time to relax.

The five thousand-man team captains and Deng Jiaer all swallowed their saliva at the same time.

"Sir," Deng Jiale said, "your plan is largely based on a bet that Abt will be arrogant and send troops to rush down the mountain."

"Yes, I am gambling." Su Cheng admitted readily, "There is no battle in this world that can definitely be won. Every battle has an element of gambling. Every famous general is an excellent gambler.

It’s just that they will try their best to increase the probability of winning. I think this strategy has a success rate of more than 50%, so I think it’s worth the gamble.”

The red-haired captain of the Thousand-Man Squadron thought for a while and then spoke first:

"I agree with the general's strategy. Although it involves gambling, the general is right. No battle is guaranteed to be won. If other countries know that our Britannian Empire's army is still fighting against a group of peasant rebels,

If we need to fight a war of attrition for troops and food, I'm afraid it will make our Britannia Empire a big mockery."

"I also agree with the general's strategy! We don't need to fight a food war with the peasant rebels!"

"Yes! I agree too!"

"Me too!"

Su Cheng's strategy was unanimously agreed by the five thousand-man team captains present.

"Now that all the captains have agreed to my strategy, the next step is to make specific combat arrangements."

"Tomorrow, I will personally lead the 3,000 people responsible for confusing the enemy. As for the 1,500 people responsible for surprise attacks..."

Su Cheng thought for a while and turned his head to Deng Jiaer.

"Deng Jiaer, you are in charge."

"Me, me?" Deng Jiaer pointed at himself in astonishment, "Aren't you going to let the five thousand-man team captains take command?"

"It's up to you to take command. Take Alan with you. With Alan here, it's equivalent to 100,1500 people attacking the mountain."

Deng Jiaer shook his hand hurriedly.

"But, but, I have never commanded an army, how can I be suddenly asked to command 1,500 people! And it is such an important battle, I will mess it up, no, no! You can't let me command!"

"I have never commanded an army before. I was suddenly asked to command 5,000 men, and now I have still defeated five-sixths of the enemy's troops."

"But……"

"It's nothing!"

Su Cheng interrupted her rudely, then stood up and patted Deng Jiaer on the shoulder.

"Believe in yourself. You also have good commanding talents. After observing you for a period of time, I have discovered this about you. You can do it. Moreover, your dream is not to become a powerful person in the world.

A general or a marshal? If you want to become a powerful general or marshal in the Britannia Empire, you have to become a knight of the four knights or even a unified knight. If you don't even have these 1,500 people

If you don’t dare to command, let alone a unified knight, you can’t even be a knight of the four knights!”

After listening to Su Cheng's words, the resistance on Deng Jiaer's face gradually dissipated, and a look of perseverance gradually appeared.

"Yes!" Deng Jiaer nodded with difficulty, "Tomorrow I will try my best to win the hill!"

...

Abt on the hill looked proudly at his 4,500-strong army that was covering up the Britannia army at the bottom of the hill.

With a smile on his face, he felt that he could already see the whole Britannian army being annihilated.

Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps and a panicked voice came from behind:

"Chief, come out, something big happened!!"

"Why panic?" Abt said calmly without turning his head, "No matter what happens, don't panic, stay calm."

"Chief! There are enemy troops rushing up the mountain...ahhh!!"

Before the person behind him could finish speaking, he let out a scream.

Abt turned his head suddenly and found that the soldier behind him had a bloody hole in his heart. It seemed that the wound was pierced by a weapon similar to a spear, and blood was still pouring out of the wound.

Behind this soldier was a cute little girl with short brown hair and green eyes, holding a spear that was dripping blood.

The little girl with a murderous look on her body raised her eyes and looked at Abt. Abt instantly felt as if she was being targeted by ferocious animals such as tigers and bears.

Abt hurriedly raised his right hand to explore the sword hanging at his waist.

However, as soon as his right hand touched the scabbard of the sword and he pulled it out a little, he felt severe pain coming from his throat.

Abt moved his eyes with difficulty and looked down, and found that the spear in the little girl's hand had pierced his throat. Only a little of the spear head was still exposed. It seemed that most of the spear head had entered him.

throat.

Abt felt that his consciousness was gradually blurring, and his eyes were getting darker and darker. Slowly, he could no longer see the scenery in front of him clearly. The scenery in front of him was slowly covered with a layer of darkness, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

...

When Alan saw that the man in front of him whose throat he stabbed was dead, he turned the gun around and pulled out the gun in his hand.

The man whose neck she stabbed had only a big hole in his throat, and only a little skin on his neck connected to his head.

"Quick, quick, quick! Replace all the flags on this hill with the military flag of our Britannia Empire!"
