Chapter 46 Although Ye Chi’s proposal was a vicious plan, it was still better than heaven’s!
There was an elusive emotion in Ying Zheng's voice, which showed both admiration for Ye Chi and fear of his scheming.
Fusu pondered for a moment and replied, "Mr. Ye's talent is truly unique in the world. Although the strategy he proposed is a vicious one, it is also able to surpass the heavens by half, which is amazing."
"His insight into the situation, his grasp of people's hearts and his formulation of strategies all demonstrate his outstanding wisdom. However, his strategies are often unexpected and hard to guard against, which also makes people feel a little uneasy."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Then he asked again, "I heard earlier that you intended to arrange for Ye Chi to enter the mansion as a junior teacher. Is this true?"
Fusu replied respectfully, "It is true. I once wanted to invite Mr. Ye to join us to work together for the great cause, but Mr. Ye had concerns and politely declined."
After hearing this, Ying Zheng sighed and said earnestly: "If Ye Chi's talent can be used by the Qin Dynasty, it will be your luck."
"But he was hurt by Confucianism, so he must have some resentment in his heart!"
"The situation is different now. You can try him one or two more times. If he still doesn't want to do it, you can give him a high position with high salary to support him. Even if he doesn't come up with a plan or a strategy, you must not let him be used by others!"
"Because, if you become an enemy of such a person, it will be very scary. He has no bottom line and will do anything to achieve his goals. Do you understand?!"
After hearing what his father said, Fusu immediately understood.
He was well aware of Mr. Ye's talent and fearlessness, and also understood his father's intentions and concerns.
So he responded respectfully: "Your son will follow your father's instructions and will handle this matter properly!!"
Seeing this, Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's great. Go ahead and be careful."
Fusu retreated in response, but he had already made up his mind.
He decided to try again to recruit Ye Chi into the palace and conspire for great undertakings together. If he still failed, he would follow his father's advice and give him a high position and generous salary to support him, and never let him be used by others!
……
at the same time,
Tu Sui led the Qin cavalry and swept through the land of Baiyue like a storm.
Wherever the army goes, it is invincible. It advances triumphantly and is unstoppable!
On that day, they captured another important place, beheaded hundreds of people, captured more than a thousand people, and seized countless weapons and property!
The sound of war drums and cheers intertwined into one, resounding through the sky!!
With the frequent reports of victory, Tu Sui could not help but feel elated, as if he had seen the dawn of a great victory in his heart.
In the military tent, Tu Sui's face was flushed with joy, and he spoke to the generals with confidence: "Since we set out on the expedition, we have been victorious in every attack and every battle. The land of Baiyue is already in our pockets!"
"The poisonous strategy and thirty-six volumes of marching proposed by Ye Chi are nothing but empty talk and castles in the air in my opinion. They are not worth mentioning!"
"I am a god at commanding troops. How can those scholars compare to me?!"
After saying this, Tu Sui sneered contemptuously, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
It was as if Ye Chi was right in front of him, being trampled under his feet, without any ability to fight back!
His voice was full of pride and complacency, as if he had already seen the moment when he would reach the pinnacle of his life.
Seeing this, all the generals echoed, "The general is wise and brave, and he is a master at using troops. The land of Baiyue will be easily captured. Ye Chi is just a scholar, with only theories but no practical experience. How can he be compared with the general? After this battle, the general's reputation will spread far and wide. Who in the world doesn't know him?"
Tu Sui was even more proud when he heard this, and his heart felt as if he was flying into the clouds.
He seemed to have seen himself becoming the invincible god of war, enjoying the admiration and worship of all the people.
In his opinion, there is no one in the world who can match him and compete with him!
However, there is still a thorn in Tu Ju's heart, which penetrates deep into her soul and makes her restless day and night. That is Ye Chi!
Whenever Tu Ju thought of this person, she felt humiliated and filled with resentment.
He secretly swore: "The day I return victorious, Ye Chi's body and head will be separated!"
Although Tu Ju's words were not spoken out loud, her intention to kill was already made up, like frost in winter, cold and cruel.
He seemed to have seen the scene of Ye Chi falling under his sword!
At that moment, all the humiliation and anger will be released!!
……
However, just when Tu Sui was getting carried away with success, the tribal leaders in the Baiyue land had already seen through his hidden ambitions.
They have lived on this land for generations and are familiar with every inch of it and every jungle. How could they not see Tu Sui's bluffing and arrogance?
That night, the moon was dark, the wind was strong, and the sky was covered with dark clouds.
The leaders of the Baiyue tribes gathered secretly in a hidden cave to discuss countermeasures.
Their faces were solemn and their eyes were determined, as if they were ready to fight a desperate battle with the enemy.
One of the elders, a man with white hair and beard, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Leaders, although the Qin army is brave and invincible, they have come from afar and are not familiar with the terrain and customs of the Baiyue people. We can use this to set up ambushes and traps to trap them."
Another middle-aged leader with a burly figure and a resolute face said, "The elder is right. We should ambush our elite troops in dangerous places and wait for them to tire themselves out."
"When the Qin army is exhausted and unprepared, we will launch a sudden attack and defeat them in one fell swoop!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
They knew very well that this battle was related to the life and death of the Baiyue tribe, and they must not be careless or slack in the slightest!
Then, all the leaders sat around the map and began to discuss in detail the specific strategies for marching and deployment, as well as the precise allocation of personnel.
They knew very well that this battle was of great importance and was related to the life and death of Baiyue. Therefore, they had to plan carefully before taking action to ensure that every move would lead to victory.
Based on the advantages of the terrain and the enemy situation reported by spies, the leaders carefully planned various tactics such as ambushes, traps and surprise attacks.
They would take advantage of the deep forests and steep valleys to set up numerous ambushes and traps, waiting for the enemy to fall into their trap.
Or you can select elite soldiers and form a raiding team, wait for the right opportunity and aim to kill the enemy with one strike.
Each leader displayed extraordinary wisdom and strategy. They either gave instructions on how to move forward or wrote passionate articles, and their words were filled with a desire for victory and contempt for the enemy.
They knew very well that if they won this battle, the land of Baiyue would be able to maintain peace!
If we lose this battle, the people of Baiyue will become slaves of Qin! !
Therefore, they must try their best and fight bravely to live up to the expectations of the people of Baiyue.
After the discussion, the leaders returned to their camps and began to make preparations in full swing.
They selected strong soldiers, prepared sharp weapons, and raised sufficient food and grass to ensure that the battle would be victorious and successful.
The people of Baiyue are already on high alert, ready to fight at any moment. When Tu Sui's army steps into this land, it will be their day to show their might and hold their heads high!
Finally, the venerable old man stood up again and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "My fellow leaders, this battle concerns the honor and disgrace and life and death of our Baiyue tribe. We must unite as one and share the same hatred of the enemy in order to defeat the powerful enemy. I believe that with your joint efforts, we will surely be able to win!"
All the leaders shouted in unison: "We will win! We will win! We will win!"
Their voices echoed endlessly in the cave, as if to shake the entire world.
At this moment, they had made full preparations and arrangements, just waiting for the Qin army to fall into the trap.
