This distance allowed them to avoid being injured by the crossbows, and also allowed them to rush forward as fast as they could when needed.
Cheng Qing left the battlefield and came to the front of the Spirit State Army's formation.
He reported to the messenger according to the military rules, saying that he was a deputy lieutenant under the command of the charging army's subaltern, and requested to see Bai Xiu Li.
Under normal circumstances, Bai Xiuli might not see Cheng Qing, but it was obvious that there was a problem with the battle between Heng Chong Army and Bai Xiuli, so he needed to understand a few things.
The messenger quickly returned and told Cheng Qing to follow him.
After passing through the passageway between the square formation and the square formation, Cheng Qing followed the messenger to a rook in the middle of the formation. The soldier said to Chen Qing, "General Bai is up there. Lieutenant Chen can go up by himself."
Cheng Qing nodded and walked up the stairs to the top of the car. Although this carriage wasn't as big as Uncle Sun's watchtower, it wasn't much shorter. Without mentioning anything else, the view from the top platform was quite good.
Bai Xiuli wore a set of bright silver armor, and even his cloak was white, giving him an unordinary and heroic appearance.
"General Cheng Qing greets General Bai." Cheng Qing clasped his hands in greeting.
Bai Xiuli did not put on any airs, and looked very amiable. He politely said to Chen Qing: "Lieutenant Chen, you've come at the right time. This general has seen that the assault troops have suffered setbacks, and Lieutenant Song is in a zone that should not have been penetrated. I was just about to send someone to inquire the cause."
The reason for this was that Song Qianshu had no experience and had underestimated his opponent. However, Chen Qing did not come here to complain to Song Qianshu. Therefore, he said, "The reason why Lieutenant Song is so deeply involved in the enemy group is because we have to use this method to defeat the enemy."
"Oh?" Bai Xiuli slightly raised his brows, appearing very surprised. However, he didn't show any special expression on his face. Instead, he asked seriously, "What is this method of defeating the enemy?"
If it was any other high-ranking officer who heard this, they would either criticize Cheng Qing for his nonsense or mock him for his whimsical thoughts. This was because the charging army's offense was obviously chaotic, and it was not something any rookie on the battlefield could see.
Of course, Bai Xiuli wasn't deceived, he was just cautious by nature. This was a person who could walk on the streets like it was thin ice. Thus, even if he thought that Cheng Qing was just spouting nonsense, he would never reveal any inappropriate emotions before hearing the other party's explanation.
He was very patient.
Cheng Qing then explained his plan in full detail, and Bai Xiu Li nodded repeatedly.
After listening to Cheng Qing's plan, Bai Xiuli rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment. It was obvious that he was seriously thinking about it, and in the end, he said seriously: "Lieutenant Song and Lieutenant Chen's plan is very bold, but it's not that there is no possibility of success, it's just that there are still things that are worth discussing. The question is not whether the opposing defender will take the initiative to attack, but … "
As he said this, he looked at Cheng Qing, using a hesitant expression to show that what he was about to say was self-evident.
Chen Qing continued, "It's about whether or not we have the strength to grasp the opportunity that might appear."
Seeing that Cheng Qing had admitted to it frankly, Bai Xiuli said with relief, "If you had sent cultivators to reinforce you from my battle formation, you would have clearly seen the city wall. Returning Uighur Commander will also increase the number of troops, which means they will not be able to gain the advantage in combat power. For Lieutenant Chen's plan, the support effect will also be lost. "
