Grace Yue's Silent Strength: The Pillar of Henry Yuan's Guar Chapter 212

After repeated discussions, Ethan Feng divided the army into three routes. One route went around the mountains and headed straight to Taiyuan. If there were ambushes in the mountains, the connection between the Taiyuan army and the ambushes could be cut off in one fell swoop. One route would go through the mountains as originally planned, while the other route would protect the baggage and move slowly at the rear.

Only if the first two armies pass smoothly and set up camp in an important position in the mountains can the safety of baggage and food be ensured.

The detour team was led by Wang Shen, who set off on horseback at night. The other two groups stayed where they were. They were waiting for one thing - rain.

Although it was difficult to march in the rain, it was also inconvenient to set up an ambush. They wanted to find a night with unclear visibility and biting rain, and travel light and quickly through Chongxia Mountain.

In order to make the enemy scouts unsure of the exact number of troops in each of their divisions and to prevent their intention of rushing on a rainy night from being discovered, they put a lot of effort into putting on a show.
