If you retreat, the ambush from all sides will be broken without attack.

To attack, it is necessary to gather the scattered troops from ten sides, gather them into a whole, and then form a formation. When the formation is combined, it is no longer an ambush from ten sides."

"Zhang Jiao and my method of ambush from all sides, I think it is not the right time to use it now."

"You can't ambush from ten sides, but you can ambush one side.

The officers and soldiers came from the southeast. The three of them thought that if the officers and soldiers retreated, where would they retreat to?

We might as well compare it with our army. Our army left Nanluan City, and the official army blocked the front. If our army was afraid of the official army's strength, where would our army retreat? Nanluan City.

If our army retreats, the first choice is Nanluan City. It is a safe and best strategy to retreat to Nanluan and defend it.

If our army pushes it forward and the army comes from the southeast, then if the army retreats, it will be safe to retreat to the southeast."

"Therefore, there is no need to ambush from all sides. If we can seize the key route to the southeast, it will be enough to deter the officers and soldiers."

After Li Mengxi finished speaking, Liu, Guan, and Zhang couldn't keep up with Li Mengxi's thoughts. They looked at each other several times, but Liu, Guan, and Zhang couldn't make any comments.

Li Mengxi thought for a moment and then said, "The first thing we need to do is to take advantage of the car formation to surround the officers and soldiers for two days. The officers and soldiers were tightly surrounded and could not move. Our army just took advantage of this opportunity to make an early investigation.

Check out all the terrain details along the road from here to the southeast.

Zhang Jiao's method of ambushing me from all sides can be used for reference. It can use thousands of troops to divide into several groups. These thousands are not included in the encirclement and deterrence of the enemy along the road. They can be used to the left and right of the main road to occupy a slightly distant position.

, like a village one mile away, or a deserted forest half a mile away.

This arrangement is to prevent the officers and soldiers from breaking out in case of a breakout. The advantageous places in the surrounding area that can be defended will have been occupied by our army early, so that the officers and soldiers have to retreat."

"Furthermore, I learned a method from Zhang Jiao. After the rangers find out the terrain, they can know where the terrain is. However, the troops cannot know where to assemble.

You can set up flags at the right and left places along the road to mark them, and record the numbers on them to make corresponding arrangements.

In this way, when the troops are about to move, there is no need to order the cavalry to rush back and forth, and the troops do not need to be commanded, they just go forward to look for flags. Teams and flag companies, each team looks for its own flag, each in an orderly manner, and there is no confusion.

Therefore, the most complicated and arduous task of mobilizing troops was easily solved.

There is no complicated mobilization of troops or ambushes from all sides, so it can be accomplished easily."

After these words were finished, Liu Guanzhang finally understood a little bit more.

Along the expected march route of the officers and soldiers, one step ahead of the officers and soldiers, the road ahead was clearly explored, but there was a little advantageous terrain that was completely seized, making the officers and soldiers feel like they were stuck in their throats, every step of the way.

The difficulty of mobilization lies in the prior investigation and careful planning and arrangement.

Coordination requires dozens of teams, a distance of more than tens of miles, and the mobilization of more than a thousand troops every moment. There can always be tens of thousands of mobilizations.

However, after the method of planting flags was introduced, the problem changed from real-time command of mobile operations to coordination and advance arrangements that took several days before the war.

The pressure is not during the war, but before the war.

However, just this change has made the difficulty of setting up the Ambush from Flying Daggers array drop by more than a hundred times.

If all troops were to be commanded and mobilized during a war, the commander-in-chief would need to issue as many as 100 orders in an instant, and before the order was issued, all troops receiving the order must be able to complete the order 100%.

This cannot be accomplished without an elite army, an efficient command system, and a rapid command delivery system.

But if the deployment of each team and each time point is arranged in advance, hundreds of orders and deployments that need to be completed in one moment during wartime will be placed in several days of free time to complete hundreds of orders and arrangements, and there will be several hours to complete them.

Consider it carefully.

A mediocre person can come up with one good strategy in one moment, and an expert can come up with ten strategies in one moment.

So, when a mediocre person confronts an expert person, how can the two sides be evenly matched?

The answer is that if mediocre people are given ten times as much time to think about and plan as experts, then mediocre people will only be able to think of ten good strategies, while expert people will only be able to come up with ten good strategies.

That's it.

Complete a hundred perfect maneuvers in one moment, something the rebels cannot do.

However, after completing a hundred maneuvers in three hours, the rebels were barely up to the task.

The key is to make clear arrangements for the mobilization of all armies before the war, where each army should be mobilized, and when.

Moreover, the key to making arrangements to enable soldiers to act spontaneously is to set the flag first.

After the discussion, Li Mengxi felt that the matter should not be delayed, so he immediately led the cavalry out at dawn, took the prepared flags and went out to explore the road, and first arranged the mobilization points of the troops.

Wait until the details are finally finalized.

Li Mengxi suddenly heard a chicken crow, and it was almost dawn.

Li Mengxi frowned, "If it's daylight and our cavalry is mobilized, the officers and soldiers will definitely be able to see it.

If the officers and soldiers become suspicious, the matter will not be kept secret.

It is my intention to prepare the flag and summon the cavalry. With the flag ready, we can set off immediately before daybreak."

Everyone immediately left the tent and went about their business.

When the flag was ready, the cavalry was summoned. Before dawn, Li Mengxi left the camp with the cavalry and Guan Yu.
