Chapter 1487: Pre-War Preparations
He Linghan was dressed in red and appeared in front of all the sergeants, which shocked everyone, and many sergeants were discussing in private, why did Ye Shikai bring his bride to the battlefield, it stands to reason that when this kind of thing happens, the officers will send people to protect their families.
"Why did General Ye bring all his new wives over. β
"Yes, it's really strange, could it be that Miss He is a hidden peerless master. β
"Probably not, I grew up in Shangshui Village, and I haven't heard that Miss He knows martial arts. β
A group of sergeants talked about bringing their newlywed wives to the battlefield, which was unheard of, but I have to say that when Ye Shikai brought He Linghan here, all the sergeants seemed to have eaten a "reassuring pill" Since ancient times, as soon as the war began, the families of the powerful were in the rear, even if the battlefield was fought more tragically, the general's family would not have a trace of danger, and in the end all the people who died were the people at the bottom, and every white-haired person sent a black-haired person, dressed in linen and filial piety, many sergeants saw through this, and of course they inevitably complained secretly, but Ye Shikai actually brought his newlywed wife here, which also sent a signal to the sergeants, you see, my general even brought his wife with him, just to fight to the death, if he loses, my wife and I die together, even the general is like this, so what reason does the sergeant have not to work hardγ
"Listen, brothers, today is the day of my marriage, and these robbers also want to come and ask for a cup of wine, and the brothers answer me, will you let them in? Ye Shikai shouted on his horse.
"No, it won't. β
"No, it won't. β
"No, it won't. β
All the sergeants spoke in unison, Ye Shikai has always been known for his wit and strategy, courage, and sharing weal and woe in the army, and many times with less to win more, many sergeants have heard of his deeds, it can be said that Ye Shikai is a general who has won the heart of the army, and the whole army cooperates sincerely, so why not worry.
"Well, let's eat and drink to our heart's content, and then we'll go drink and eat meat after we've won. Ye Shikai waved his hand and motioned for the guards to distribute all the wine and meat to all the sergeants and the young and middle-aged people who were present to participate in the battle.
"Ling'er, when there is a war, you will stay here. Ye Shikai found a safe room, let He Linghan stay inside, and let her not leave here an inch.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. He Linghan nodded and said.
"Mancang, you take a few brothers and stay here to protect her. Ye Shikai commanded.
"Well, my subordinates will ensure her safety. β
"Wait a minute, what about your safety if the warehouse is not full. He Linghan took Ye Shikai's hand and asked.
"Don't worry, my martial arts are good, these robbers can't help me, besides, Xue San is also back, it's enough to have him by your side." Ye Shikai said with relief.
"How many people do we have now. Ye Shikai came to Luo Li's side and asked, he was guarding the granary, after receiving Ye Shikai's letter, he immediately brought his subordinates over, fortunately, Ye Shikai had not had time to send the grain brought and the food presented by Hua Liandie to the cave granary, otherwise it would be necessary to divide the troops to guard, at this moment, there are only a dozen bags of grain left in the cave granary, even if they are all robbed, it doesn't matter.
"We have gathered the strength of several garrisons, and now there are about three hundred people, plus the guards of the adults, there are no less than five hundred, and we still have so many villagers who help us, there is absolutely no problem. Luo Li replied.
"Xue San, you take the team and lurk on the roof. Ye Shikai turned around and said, "You should understand what I mean." β
"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates understand. Xue San was agile and climbed directly to the roof, and the team behind him was also scattered and arranged on the roof.
"Everyone, listen, empty all the houses in the east of the village, and don't leave anyone here," Ye Shikai ordered.
"This general, why is this why we should give up in the face of these robbers on the higher ground in the east of the village. Luo Li asked, and many sergeants also expressed curiosity.
"Sergeants, listen to my orders, and don't need to ask more. β
Although Ye Shikai didn't explain it to everyone, he had authority after all, and although everyone kept talking, they had no choice but to do it.
Half an hour later.
In the east of the village, a group of robbers slowly came from a distance, some of them were wearing light armor captured from the Qin army, most of them were wearing people's clothes, and most of the weapons in their hands were broken, after all, they were just robbers, and there was no place to make weapons, and the spear was just a piece of iron tied with a wooden stick.
"It's strange why so many of us are here, why didn't the officers and soldiers come to resist us. "The leader of a big man stood on the hillside, overlooking the entire Shangshui Village, the east of the village was the gate of the village, not only was there no Qin army, but even the people could not find one, and it was a little unbelievably quiet.
"Big brother, don't worry too much, we have thousands of people here, if these villagers knew each other, they would have run out long ago, as for the officers and soldiers, most of them are wine bags and rice bags, and the leaders are even more greedy for life and afraid of death, bullying and bullying the people is okay, when they meet us, they are not much stronger. A cronie next to the leader said.
"But I heard that today there is a marriage in the village, and he is a general from Dongjun, who is quite famous. β
"Big brother, don't worry, if these generals are really so capable, there will be no us, in my opinion, but we are also a rat. β
When the robbers walked to the entrance of the village, unlike usual, they couldn't see a single person, it was supposed to be time to eat, but there was no smoke rising from the chimneys of every house, and it looked like an empty village.
"Big brother, I think these officers and soldiers have all run away when they heard that we are coming, and as for the villagers, they dare not be our enemies, so they should take refuge in the nearby villages. β
"Don't let your guard down, you take two hundred people in first to see if there is anyone left. The leader said.
"Yes, big brother, the brothers are all with me. β
In the village.
"General, according to your orders, my brothers and I have hid it, and our brothers have ambushed in every house in this vicinity, and the equipment you asked me to prepare has also been arranged. β
"Okay, Chief Luotun, you have done a good job, according to the plan, you will immediately go to the blacksmith shop in the village, which is the highest place in the village, from where you can have an unobstructed view of the east of the village. β
"The subordinate took the order. Luo Li was puzzled, and asked Ye Shikai, "General, why did you let the east of the village out." β
"Although the terrain in the east of the village is high, the road is narrow, and once the battle situation is unfavorable, we will not be able to retreat at all, on the contrary, giving the east of the village to the robbers is tantamount to using the narrow terrain to contain them. β
