4763！

This is the number of spies that Guo Jia found after probing the whole army. This number also made Shang Ji sigh again that he was lucky. If it hadn't been for the discovery of the Phantom Guard erosion in advance, it would have really been planted this time! It is estimated that the total annihilation of the army will not be enough, but the possibility of damage to the main force or even a rout is extremely high.

In addition to the Flying Phoenix Fire Cavalry, the Phoenix Dance Guard, and the Shura Guard, there were signs of erosion throughout the army, including more than 600 lurking phantom guards in the Black Armor Xuan Cavalry.

The reason why the three armies of the Flying Phoenix Fire Cavalry survived was because they had never dispatched three armies in the previous skirmishes, and the Phantom Guard naturally had no chance to lurk among the three armies.

In the previous contest, in order to train the army, Shang Ji deliberately ordered each army to take turns to fight with the Lequan army, which objectively created favorable conditions for the erosion of the phantom guard.

This would also explain why Kuang Zhang would stubbornly continue to send troops to fight after the Lequan army suffered a series of defeats - his main purpose in sending troops to fight was to create opportunities for the phantom guards to lurk, and as for the results of the army, he no longer considered the results of the army. With Kuang Zhang's mind, he clearly realized that relying on the Lequan City army could not defeat the Pingzhou army at all, and he could only make dangerous moves!

The Phantom Guard is strong, but after being exposed, there is nothing to worry about. The individual combat power of the phantom guard is not strong, and it is roughly the level of the sixth-order low-level special troops, less than 5,000 phantom guards, if they are on the frontal battlefield, a charge will solve the battle.

"Fengxiao has worked hard, without Fengxiao, the life and death of our army in this battle are unpredictable!"

Shang Ji looked at Guo Jia, who was a little depressed, and said with emotion.

In order to find out the phantom guards lurking in the army, Guo Jia was tired. The skills of the Demon Eye are somewhat similar to talents, and they are not very expensive to use. But no matter how small the consumption is, it can't withstand such crazy use!

This is a full army of 300,000, and it is a great luck that Guo Jia was not tired and ascended to heaven on the spot.

Guo Jia didn't answer, and he didn't even be polite. The whole person collapsed on the seat like a salted fish, with a look of being broken.

Continuous ultra-high intensity use of the Eye of the Ghost God, even though there are recovery pills, Guo Jia is still overdrawn in his spirit, and at this time, he feels that his whole brain is buzzing.

Seeing this, Shang Ji retreated very interestingly, and before leaving, he also told the maid to take good care of Guo Jia.

"Strategist, what do you think we can do next to make the most of this opportunity?"

Leaving Guo Jia's big tent to rest, Shang Ji turned around and asked Xi Zhicai.

"For today's plan, we have to wait!"

"Wait?"

"Yes, wait!" Xi Zhicai nodded vigorously, and was quite dissatisfied with being yin by Kuang Zhang. It's just that the skills are not as good as others, so I can only swallow this sulk.

"Although we have discovered the Phantom Guards lurking inside, the organization and discipline among the Phantom Guards are extremely strict, and once they are lurking, they only follow Kuang Zhang's signals. Even if we arrest all the Phantom Guards, we can't lure Kuang Zhang out of the city, so the only way to do this is to pretend that we don't know about the Phantom Guards, and let Kuang Zhang continue to send people to lurk until he thinks the time is right and takes the initiative to lead the army out of the city! ”

Shang Ji thought about it and found that this was really the case. Shang Ji wanted to catch Kuang Zhang's big fish, not only could the current phantom guard not move, but even had to continue to provide Kuang Zhang with favorable conditions for sending phantom guards to lurk.

Once the Phantom Guard is arrested on a large scale, Kuang Zhang will definitely know that the Phantom Guard has been exposed, and with Kuang Zhang's cautious character, it is estimated that he will really not be able to get out of the city completely. And with the defense capability of Lequan City, as well as the material reserves in the city, Shang Ji may not be able to conquer it for a month or two. With the current situation, it is estimated that in a month or two, the neighboring countries have unified their basic markets and begun to march to Huaxia District!

"Okay, according to what the military advisor said. However, the phantom guards lurking in the army must be strictly monitored, and they can't really make trouble by them when the time comes! ”

"General rest assured, this subordinate is personally responsible for this, and every phantom guard arranges a few clever soldiers to monitor, once there is a sign of chaos, it will be killed immediately!"

Shang Ji frowned when he heard this, and said with some doubts: "Will this be exposed?" There must be people who are agile among the phantom guards, and although sending people to monitor can control the situation, will it arouse their vigilance and expose our intentions? ”

"Hahaha, the general is too worried!" Xi Zhicai immediately burst out laughing when he heard this, stroked his feather fan and said: "In order to keep secrets, the phantom guards are absolutely forbidden to contact each other after lurking, and even they themselves don't know who their colleagues are before they receive Kuang Zhang's signal. This certainly strengthens the Phantom Guard's latent survivability, but it also makes their resilience extremely vulnerable. Even if one or two of the astute ones found out that they had been exposed, they would not be able to notify the other phantom guards. ”

Shang Ji suddenly realized, and nodded again and again: "Well, very good, this matter will be handed over to the military advisor." ”

"The subordinates will not fail in their mission!" Xi Zhicai arched his hand.

After making a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, Shang Ji continued to send troops to provoke every day according to his previous style, so as not to arouse Kuang Zhang's suspicion.

And Kuang Zhang, as always, sent troops to fight every time, and the Pingzhou army after the triumph more or less had phantom guards lurking in. However, after knowing Kuang Zhang's plan in advance, the threat of the Phantom Guard plummeted. There is no need for Guo Jia to open the eyes of ghosts and gods, and Xi Zhi can detect which enemy troops are lurking on the premise of being prepared.

Three days later, Liu Meng and Huang Zhong successively received news within one day that they had successfully captured An Guangcheng and An Xincheng, and would lead a large army to join Shang Ji within two days.

After receiving the news, Xi Zhi immediately found Shang Ji, thinking that Kuang Zhang would do it in the near future, please get ready!

The two cities of Anxin and Anguang have special communication channels with Lequan City, which Liu Qing has confirmed. And the news of the fall of the two cities must not be concealed from Kuang Zhang.

According to Xi Zhicai's calculations, once the army led by Liu Huang and the people converged with Shang Ji, because there was no lurking phantom guard between the two departments, even if Kuang Zhang launched a surprise attack, it would cause chaos in Shang Ji's headquarters army at most. In the absence of external army suppression, once there is large-scale chaos, it is difficult to stabilize the army in a short period of time, even if there are many famous generals.

And once Kuang Zhang took the opportunity to send troops to raid, it was very likely to defeat the Pingzhou army in one fell swoop. But once Liu and Huang converged with Shang Ji, it would be different, the two could calmly dispatch troops to help Shang Ji's headquarters restore order, and on the other hand, they could also temporarily resist the Lequan army and buy time for Shang Ji to rectify his headquarters.

Once this happens, Kuang Zhang will have nothing to gain except for the loss of thousands of phantom guards, and he will even expose a hole card in advance.

In order to maximize the results of the battle, Kuang Zhang will definitely strike a fatal blow before Liu Huang and the leading army arrives. After defeating the Shang Ji headquarters, he used superior forces to deal with Liu and Huang and the others, so that they could be defeated.

After consulting with everyone, Shang Ji agreed with Xi Zhicai's inference. Then the whole army turned on the outer loose and inner tightening mode, waiting for Kuang Zhang to take the bait.

The facts were indeed not as Shang Ji expected, and Kuang Zhang led the troops to "night attack" that night!

It is said that it is a night attack, but in fact, Kuang Zhang is almost a fair and honest dispatch of troops, a whole 700,000 troops from Lequan City, the number of troops left in the city is less than 600,000 - the skirmishes in the past few days have caused heavy losses in Lequan City, and the total number of troops in Lequan City is currently less than 1.3 million, which can be described as a heavy loss!

And the army that fought this time was also all the elite of Lequan City, and the proportion of the sixth-order army was as high as thirty percent. Kuang Zhang can be regarded as an all-or-nothing gamble.

Seeing Kuang Zhang's fanfare, Shang Ji immediately understood Kuang Zhang's plan - to confront the Pingzhou army head-on, and then order the phantom guards to dispatch when the battle between the two sides was at its most intense, creating chaos on a large scale, and letting Lequan City win.

As for why it was not a night attack in the real sense, Kuang Zhang thought about it, but unfortunately it was useless to dispatch fewer troops, and it was completely impossible to dispatch enough troops without alarming the Pingzhou army!

Although Liu Yi was left to guard his home, Xingyao Qiangbow participated in the battle. The one in charge of guarding at night has always been the Xingyao Strong Bow, and Kuang Zhang tentatively launched several small-scale night attacks before, but they were all beaten back.

In desperation, Kuang Zhang could only give up some illusions and defeat the enemy army with a "dignified" formation. As for why it was chosen at night, it is estimated that it is because the army is more prone to chaos or morale collapse when fighting at night, in fact, this is not good for both sides, even if Liu Yi personally takes action, it can only greatly reduce the negative effects of night combat, and cannot be completely immune (a very small number of special troops such as the Star Bright Bow and the Ghost Rider are not discussed).

However, Kuang Zhang thought that he had a phantom guard as his backhand, and the Pingzhou army would definitely be more disadvantageous than the Lequan army in night battles. In fact, if it weren't for Guo Jia who was aware of the existence of the phantom guards in advance, when the battle between the two armies was the most intense, more than 5,700 (and later a thousand more than 1,000 people came in) the phantom guards collectively rebelled, and the time was still night, even with the elite of the Pingzhou army, there was a very high probability of falling into chaos, which would lead to the rout of the whole army.

However, Shang Ji has prepared in advance, so the result will be seen!

When the Lequan army was arranging the troops, the Pingzhou army was not idle, and the army was quickly arrayed.

"Whew-"

With a dull sound of horns, the Lequan army began to advance. The whole army was divided into three large phalanxes on the left, center and right, and in each phalanx, the sword and shield soldiers were in front, the crossbowmen were in the back, and the cavalry was in the wings.

It's just that the formation looks a bit messy, and the command is not particularly smooth - the negative effects of night combat have already begun to appear before the actual battle begins.

Of course, the situation in Pingzhou is not more optimistic than that of Lequan City, except for a very small number of troops such as the Ghost Cavalry and the Star Bright Strong Bow, the other armies also have varying degrees of chaos.

In real history, there has never been an instance of large-scale night fighting, let alone a battle between the two sides at night. That is to say, the situation of the beacon fire is special, and the five senses of the high-level army have been greatly strengthened, otherwise it would not be possible to face off at night like today's million-strong army.

However, night combat is still a jade-burning tactic that kills 1,000 enemies and damages 800 self-inflicted losses, and it is easy for no one to try it, and it is easy to lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot! ntent
