Chapter 180: Only Have One Chance
Jin Huai then picked two blue flags, put them on the map, and said, "Since General Yao and General Du are our main force with fifty thousand troops, you should stay on the back formation. If there is an ambush, the main force will not be trapped."
He picked another blue flag, put it on the map, looked at Ren Fanyan and said, "General Ren, you will lead an army of five thousand soldiers and pass through the narrow valley. This is the most dangerous position, but I believe your soldiers have the fastest mobility in our army. You are the most suitable person to pass through this route."
Ren Fanyan looked at Jin Huai and said, "Leave the task as bait to me. I will definitely clear the way for General Yao and General Du."
Seeing his confident face, Jin Huai nodded, and said, "Then I will trouble General Ren with this dangerous mission."
Ren Fanyan nodded and said, "I understand, Advisor Jin. This is my duty and I will do my best."
Jin Huai then looked at Meng Sikuan and said, "General Meng, you have to stay with me here and be ready to move out to provide support at any time. If Qi Baijun really deliberately released false news to lure us to attack Lin Zi City, then he must have other plans. If he personally leads troops, they will most likely adopt a flanking strategy."
Meng Sikuan nodded and said, "I heard that Chen Yiwei also came with him this time."
Hearing what he said, Song Yanlei looked at the others and said, "I also got news that he really came with Qi Baijun this time."
"Then it is very likely that they will use a flanking strategy. Chen Yiwei’s troops are no less mobile than General Song’s troops. If he joins the battle, then we have to be prepared to be double ambushed by them." While talking, Jin Huai put three red flags on the map.
