Chapter 1706: The Abandoning Xin Yi
Seeing that the Beijia morale was about to rise, He Lingchuan personally took action, and the Beijia army was directly pressed by him twice when crossing the river, and was severely beaten by the river.
The initial probing ended, and the two sides came and went, with strange plans emerging one after another.
He Lingchuan also tested that Lu Wushuang often had divine strokes, but lacked experience in leading troops, which was far from the old and smooth Qing Yang of later generations.
After all, she was still young and impulsive at this time.
And Lu Wushuang suffered a few losses in He Lingchuan's hands, and also calmed down to seriously experience the art of war. The battle on the Jinchi front line soon turned into a dull and boring daily offensive and defensive stage, and the Beijia attack frequency changed from two or three times a day at the beginning to once every two or three days, and then dragged on to once every seven or eight days.
But Lu Wushuang didn't slack off, but sent teams to infiltrate Longchuan again, this time adopting a step-by-step approach, pushing into the depths of the swamp bit by bit.
The battle between the two armies in Longchuan was even more intense than the Jinchi front line.
Xin Yi had long participated in and commanded the battle personally, but this was the first time he had faced Lu Wushuang head-on.
He Lingchuan's task for him was to attract the enemy's main force and cover his own side's nail-pulling action in Longchuan, so he had to persist as long as possible.
Only by putting a heavy bait for Lu Wushuang would she be willing to put in great effort to attack, so He Lingchuan took out Beifu City and sent out bird demons to pay close attention throughout the process.
The battle between these two sides was particularly intense, lasting nearly ten hours, ending with Xin Yi's retreat.
In fact, He Lingchuan was quite surprised that Xin Yi could persist for so long, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "I only ask you to hold on, not to win. Ten hours is a bit short, but the Beijia stronghold in Longchuan has been pulled out by the willow strips, so you can be considered to have completed the task." He Lingchuan had expected his failure, so he comforted him at this time, "As for Beifu City, it's not the first time we've lost it, we'll just grab it back later."
Xin Yi smiled bitterly.
Returning to the outpost, he set up a sand table, set up a formation map, recounted the battle just now, and asked He Lingchuan to solve his doubts.
He Lingchuan didn't be polite, pointed out the intention of Lu Wushuang's every command, and then pointed out Xin Yi's mistakes. After explaining in detail for more than half an hour, he pointed to the sand table and laughed: "Lu Wushuang's trap was not in vain, you still stepped into it in the end!"
Xin Yi stroked the back of his head and sighed long: "General He is as clear as a fire, clearly I was the commander on the battlefield. Only after listening to your explanation did I know how many mistakes I made just now! Alas, it's not unjust to lose."
"Mr. Xin is making rapid progress, but Lu Wushuang is a natural genius and does not stick to one pattern on the battlefield." He Lingchuan said the truth, "It is very difficult for you to keep up with her rhythm."
Fighting requires rhythm.
He Lingchuan could clearly feel that Lu Wushuang had experience in leading troops before this, but her experience in commanding large-scale battles was basically zero.
She dared to take over the mess of White Demon Ji, Lu Wushuang was really bold and confident.
Of course, later facts also proved that she had the capital of confidence and could indeed grow rapidly in battle.
If she was two steps ahead of Xin Yi when she started running, now she has left Xin Yi far behind.
He Lingchuan certainly wanted to kill her when the opportunity arose, but Lu Wushuang was very alert, and there were always two Qing Palace guard teams following her, all top-notch experts.
These two guard teams did nothing but protect her safety, and they protected her from escaping the dangerous situation arranged by He Lingchuan twice or three times.
She liked to take risks at first, but after being caught by He Lingchuan twice for going deep alone, suffering heavy casualties, she learned to be obedient and adjusted her strategy in time.
Xin Yi looked at the sand table, looked at the small flags marking Lu Wushuang's actions, and was lost in thought for a long time before exhaling gently:
"Talents appear in every generation, and the waves behind push the waves in front."
In one sentence, I don't know how many vicissitudes.
"Why does Mr. Xin say this?" He Lingchuan asked knowingly, "You are in your prime, it should be a time of ambition and showing your aspirations."
Xin Yi's appearance was only in his early thirties.
"Following General He to watch and participate in the battle, I have gained a lot. It was really correct to make this request to Commander Zhong at that time!" Xin Yi crossed his hands and put them on the table, "But the more I participated and commanded personally, the more I realized: the way of being a general is more demanding than cultivation, and it depends more on talent than cultivation."
What is talent? Talent is something others can't do well after ten times, you might learn it after watching it once.
Talent is when others are painting cats and tigers, and still believe that diligence can make up for clumsiness, you finish it in two strokes, and the writing is like a god.
Talent is that you can't say why yourself, but you are just good at this, and you are particularly confident. Others can't do it is their problem, it doesn't mean you can't do it.
Others are others, you are you.
"Whether it is Lu Wushuang or General He, the talents shown on the battlefield are far superior to me." Xin Yi felt deeply, "Caught between the two commanders, I feel very uncomfortable."
He Lingchuan laughed: "Mr. Xin's progress is already very fast, and ordinary people can't look up to you."
This is also the truth. Who can say that Xin Yi's talent is not good? It's a pity that he met him and Lu Wushuang.
The gap is all compared.
"Compared to you, it's not worth mentioning because of clumsiness." Xin Yi had self-knowledge, "Lu Wushuang's plan is eye-catching; General He's fighting style is even more like an antelope hanging its horns, with no traces to follow."
Lu Wushuang's fighting style, after He Lingchuan's explanation, Xin Yi could still clarify his thinking;
But He Lingchuan's fighting, especially the real-time reaction and on-the-spot decision-making, Xin Yi couldn't figure out how his brain turned at all. But He Lingchuan could prove with actual actions time and time again that he was right! At that time, that battlefield, that sudden accident, that key node, he had to use He Lingchuan's fighting style to deal with it! Xin Yi was amazed, and only then did he know that the word "transporting troops" really had no fixed rules to follow.
Sometimes, fighting is unreasonable.
Seeing his sighing face, He Lingchuan thought he was going to give up, but Xin Yi stroked his chin and said: "It seems that this path is not my strength, and I shouldn't spend my energy here."
Hearing this, He Lingchuan looked at him with admiration.
With his status, being able to calmly say "I can't do it" shows his pragmatism and peace.
"What is Mr. Xin's high opinion?"
This sentence had no irony, purely asking for advice.
Xin Yi messed up the sand table, brushed the fine sand off his hands and laughed: "No high opinion, I just thought of a lazy way. Why be proficient in everything? I am not good at fighting, so I will find someone who is good at fighting to fight for me in the future, isn't that fine?"
He Lingchuan laughed: "This is the reason why I often go to restaurants."
Both of them laughed. ===== CHAPTER 1707 =====
