After receiving the news that the Korean army was setting off from Xinzheng, Gongsun Qi, who was resting in Hufu City, immediately prepared his soldiers and headed west.

After passing through Daliang and replenishing food, grass and baggage, Gongsun Qi's troops turned to the southwest, and their target was clearly the Korean army that was advancing eastward.

With 60,000 Korean troops and 40,000 Wei troops, a battle of 100,000 people is about to begin slowly in the Central Plains.

…

The State of Wei, Anyi, and the palaces of the State of Wei.

Looking at the red and green thin lines on the map in front of him, Wei Hou Wei?'s face was full of solemn expression.

After being silent for a long time, Wei Li drew a circle at the intersection of the two thin lines, and in this circle was a place name identified by two seal characters.

Maling.

This Maling is not Bima Ling.

In the previous life, Maling, where the Wei-Qi War broke out and Wei finally lost its dominance, was located in the Qi State north of the river.

At this moment, the Maling that Wei Wei drew on the map with his pen is located southeast of Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea.

Judging from the map, Malingkong straddles the road from the eastern territory of Wei to Xinzheng, the capital of Han, and can be said to be the eastern gateway of Xinzheng.

In other words, if the Wei army Gongsun Qi's troops want to advance westward to Xinzheng, they must first capture Maling. This is why the Korean army will be stationed here.

After a long time, Wei? Withdrew his gaze from the map in front of him and slowly came to the door of the main hall.

At this moment, the expression on his face became calmer, and he seemed to be able to see that in the southeast, in Maling, a large-scale battle was about to begin.

In Anyi City, Wei?'s eyes were looking at Maling in the distance. Outside a large camp to the east of Maling, there were also several eyes observing everything in front of them.

When the red flags with the word "Wei" came into view, and when the groups of well-dressed soldiers in the military camp passed by...

The longer time passes and the more carefully you observe, the more ugly the faces of the owners of these eyes become.

Although they were unwilling to admit it in their hearts, as elite scouts in the Korean army, their knowledge forced them to admit a fact.

The Wei army in front of them was an elite division. Just from the scenes they saw, the powerful combat power of this army made them dare not underestimate it.

After understanding the strength of the Wei army in front of them, these Korean army scouts had only one idea left in their minds, which was to report the situation of the Wei army back as soon as possible.

Silence prevailed among the few people for a long time. After scanning the surroundings several times and confirming that there was no danger, one of the scouts gave the order to retreat to the others.

After giving the order, these elite Korean army scouts looked around with cautious expressions, preparing to leave this place without anyone noticing.

But before they could even take a few steps back, a cold light appeared in their sight along with a sharp sound breaking through the air.

Before these Korean army scouts could react, this cold light had already appeared in front of one of them and pierced straight into that person's neck.

A sharp pain shot through his throat, making the Korean scout's eyes suddenly widen, and he fell straight down.

As this Korean scout fell, the eyes of the remaining people were full of vigilance.

They don't know when the next arrow will come, and they don't know which one of them will die next.

"What, we've been discovered."

"Um."

After hearing the words of his subordinates, the person who had just given the order looked towards the direction where the arrow was shot, and saw a pair of eyes staring at them on the camp wall in the distance.

When he met those eyes and sensed a bit of murderous intent, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart.

"No, there's an ambush, retreat!"

"Retreat, can you retreat?"

Just as the chief scout finished speaking, a loud shout came from the gate of the camp ahead, and then dozens of soldiers holding crossbows appeared not far in front of the crowd.

Seeing the wisps of cold light radiating from the front of the crossbow in front of them, the expressions on the faces of several Korean army scouts became more and more gloomy.

At this moment, they still don't know that they and others may have been discovered by Wei Jun.

Facing the situation in front of us, it is already impossible to escape unscathed. Only by fighting to the death can we have a chance of survival.

The right hand involuntarily touched the dagger at the waist, and a fighting spirit sprouted among everyone.

"kill!"

After the cry of killing, these Korean army scouts rushed towards the Wei army in front.

"Strong crossbow ready..."

"put!"

Suddenly, dozens of crossbow arrows were fired at the Korean scouts ahead.

There was no surprise. After being hit by crossbow arrows, these Korean scouts fell on the road ahead.

When the last crossbow arrow hit the last Korean scout who was still standing, he looked at the Wei army who was still far ahead, with indescribable unwillingness in his eyes.

There was a "bang" sound, and he finally fell down.

…

A moment later, Pang Juan stood in front of the main tent of the Chinese army in the Wei army camp.

"Report to Sima, the last general Pang Juan asks for an audience."

"Come in."

Looking at Pang Juan who was slowly walking into the tent, Gongsun Qi asked calmly: "How is the situation?"

"Reporting to Sima, this wave of Korean army scouts who came to investigate have been completely wiped out." Upon hearing Gongsun Qi's inquiry, Pang Juan bowed and responded.

"This is probably the third wave of Korean scouts our army has encountered since arriving in Maling."

After muttering to himself for a while, Gongsun Qi slowly stood up from behind a few tables and walked slowly to the map in the big tent.

"With each encounter, these Korean army scouts get a little closer to our army. By now, through these waves of scouts, the Korean army should have figured out the location of our army."

"but……"

Gongsun Qi changed the topic, and his tone suddenly became a bit fierce, "But the Korean army has figured out the location of our army, so why can't our army figure out the location of the Korean army?"

While he was talking, Gongsun Qi's eyes fell on the map, a small dot west of Maling.

This is where the Korean army's camp is located.

Sun Tzu once said: "Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger."

Before a large-scale battle officially broke out between the two sides, overt or covert battles had already begun.

Some of these battles are close between the two armies, while others are far away from the enemy's capital. Their results are often the key to determining the outcome of a war.

Pang Juan looked ahead and Gongsun Qi, who had been silently watching the dot for a long time, suddenly took a step forward.

"Sima, it's not polite to come and go. Pang Juan wants to go to Maling and the Korean army camp to see with his own eyes."

Upon hearing Pang Juan's request, Gongsun Qi's eyes suddenly shot towards him. After a moment of seriousness, he felt a little relieved.

"I agree, let's go."

"Here."

After getting Gongsun Qi's permission, Pang Juan bowed and immediately left the tent.

"etc……"

At this time, Gongsun Qi's voice stopped him. When he turned around with some doubts, he was met with Gongsun Qi's kind eyes.

"Choose some capable scouts from the scout camp and bring them with you. Be extremely careful."

"The general will obey the order."
