Chapter 90: Burning the Company Camp
Leng Qingfeng looked at Yan Wanli silently for a long time, and he was also struggling in his heart whether to listen to him, once he listened, if he could really solve the danger of Beijun, if not, what would he do. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info didn't listen, but Ji Hongtu's order had been issued, and he had to listen, which was really a dilemma. He stared at Yan Wanli's eyes, but he was disappointed and didn't see anything.
"Have you thought about it?" Yan Wanli raised his eyebrows and asked?
In desperation, Leng Qingfeng stood up, pointed to the battle map on the wall, and said: "We have been fighting with the barbarians for more than a month, and they first occupied twenty of the forty towns in Beijun, and within this month, we recovered five towns, which means that there are still fifteen towns in the hands of the barbarians.
Now the two sides have entered the stage of stalemate, the barbarians no longer attack, but stationed in the woods twenty miles outside the city, the court and the silver leaf city can not give us support, now the city has been stretched thin with food and grass, we do not have enough food and grass to rush out, so we have to be trapped in the city by the barbarians, they are also iron-hearted, want to keep surrounding here, starve us to death. ā
Yan Wanli nodded, touched his chin, and didn't know what he was thinking, "Where did the barbarian grain and grass come from?" ā
"They are twenty miles outside the city, and they can transport or buy grain and grass at any time, and no one is besieging them!" Gu Shiming explained on the side.
"Shall we set up an ambush and cut off their grain and grass in the place where they must pass for our use?" Yan Wanli asked.
Leng Qingfeng sneered: "Hehe...... We've thought of it for a long time, but if we want to set up an ambush, we have to go around that forest, and all corners of the whole forest are barbarian people, how can we get there? If this method works, we have used it a long time ago, and we still need you to come and remind you from thousands of miles away? ā
Facing Leng Qingfeng's ridicule, Yan Wanli was not angry, but smiled, "Master Leng, I want to ask, what are you going to do if I don't come, or if Silver Leaf City and the court never send people to support you?" ā
Leng Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and was speechless by Yan Wanli's words, "I...... I'm definitely going to take a desperate gamble at the last minute! ā
"Good! You can take a big gamble, but have you ever thought about the outcome, that it will drive away the barbarians? ā
"Huh...... I may have died by then, and the outcome is none of my business. Leng Qingfeng said gloomily.
"I admire Master Leng for his determination to serve to the death, but that's a stupid man's approach, the real general is to strategize and win thousands of miles away!"
Leng Qingfeng smiled, "But I don't know what good strategies Master Yan has to defend against the enemy?" ā
"There are some ideas below, and please point out the deficiencies of Master Leng!"
Yan Wanli looked at the map, and then said: "Since the barbarians are stationed in the woods of twenty miles, that is to say, they are also afraid of our sudden attack, so it is inevitable that there will be no advantage in rashly attacking, but if there is a determination to die, it is not necessarily. ā
"Uncle Yan, I don't know if you have any good ideas?"
"As we all know, the barbarians are good at fighting but not good at scheming, we are not good at fighting compared to the barbarians, the strength of the soldiers lies in their large number of people, and there are effective formations as auxiliaries, therefore, the strength of the army lies in the number of people, however, the individual combat ability of our soldiers is slightly insufficient compared to the barbarians, so, I mean to use our existing sect disciples as assault troops, with a small number of flexible advantages, to fight the barbarians by surprise. In the past, Lu Xun of the Three Kingdoms could burn Liu Bei's company camp, why don't we burn their barbarian camp today! ā
After Yan Wanli finished speaking, he looked at Leng Qingfeng and Gu Shiming on the left and right, they all bowed their heads and were silent, thinking about Yan Wanli's strategy in their hearts.
"Uncle Gu, it's winter now, I'm afraid the fire attack may not be effective, if it doesn't work, although we won't be wiped out, but the casualties will not be few!"
Leng Qingfeng also nodded secretly, and Yan Wanli continued: "It is indeed not easy to attack in winter, but the tents and clothes of the barbarians are made of cowhide and sheepskin, this kind of thing is very easy to burn when it encounters fire, if our sneak attack troops each have another bottle of oil in their hands, I think the effect will not be too bad." ā
Although Leng Qingfeng did not approve of Yan Wanli's personality, he also secretly praised this method in his heart, so he did not deny Yan Wanli's strategy. This is probably the best and most practical ploy at the moment.
"It's just that there is a problem that is tricky at present, and if this problem is not solved, I am afraid that this plan will be difficult to achieve!"
"What's the problem?" Leng Qingfeng and Gu Shiming asked at the same time.
"People!"
"People?"
"Yes, it's people, our raid force must be composed of disciples and disciples of the Jianghu Sect, they don't have to be the top in strength, but they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers, Beijun has been hit like this, I don't know how many Jianghu people can gather."
Gu Shiming pondered for a moment and said: "Beijun has been hit, my father has died tragically, and at present, there are only two hundred disciples and disciples at most, and I am afraid it is not enough to form a sneak attack force." ā
"Master Leng, where is your Han Xuanmen?" Yan Wanli asked with a smile?
"I only brought three hundred people, and the rest are all soldiers from Silver Leaf City." Leng Qingfeng said truthfully.
"Two hundred people plus three hundred people is five hundred, these are basically enough, although I am the head of the Yanshan faction, but I am the only one on this trip, so I can't send more people, but I will personally take these five hundred people to sneak attack, so, please rest assured!"
Leng Qingfeng squinted at Yan Wanli, trying in vain to get any useful information from him, but Yan Wanli had nothing but full confidence.
"Uncle Yan, I am also walking with you, no matter how you say that Beijun is also my father's hard work for many years, although his old man is gone, but I also want to ask for an explanation for his hard work."
Yan Wanli nodded appreciatively, then turned his head to Leng Qingfeng and said, "Then the camp of the North County will please be in charge of Leng!" Leng Qingfeng nodded indifferently.
"Uncle Yan, I don't know when we will leave?"
"Tonight!" As he spoke, two sharp cold lights shot out of Yan Wanli's eyes.
After speaking, Yan Wanli and Gu Shiming said hello to Leng Qingfeng and went down to prepare, leaving Leng Qingfeng alone in the room, he sat on the chair, thinking about his thoughts.
Leng Qingfeng called a henchman of Han Xuanmen, named Du Xiaochun, to talk to him in the room.
"Xiaochun, tonight you take our people from Hanxuanmen to follow Yan Wanli and Gu Shiming to attack the barbarian camp, you must remember, show me Yan Wanli, if you find anything wrong with him, immediately order our people to kill him together, remember! Be sure to go together, you alone are not his opponents. ā
Du Xiaochun took the order, Leng Qingfeng clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were cold and terrifying.
Five hundred people, each wearing black night clothes and black masks, under the cover of the night, like a group of dark clouds, rushed to the barbarian camp twenty miles away quietly, no one spoke, everything was in order, Yan Wanli under the mask smiled very happily, showing his white teeth.
The barbarian army in the forest did not expect an enemy attack tonight, let alone a mere five hundred men, so they were already resting, and only a few sentries patrolled back and forth.
Whoosh......
Five hundred people were like elves in the dark night, flexibly breaking into the woods, everything was silent, Gu Shiming and Du Xiaochun solved the patrol sentry as quickly as possible, and then quietly sneaked into the camp, sprinkled a lot of oil on the tents, and the others also followed their appearance, sprinkled oil on each tent, and then like a raccoon, ran up to the trees next to them, everything went quietly.
When all the work was ready, Gu Shiming took out the fire fold from his arms and threw it onto the tent along the direction of the wind, and so did the others!
Rumble...... Call......
The fire was blazing with the wind, and the peaceful barbarian camp instantly turned into a sea of fire, screaming and shouting incessantly, and even the people on the trees were burned red by the fire.
By the light of the fire, Du Xiaochun looked for Yan Wanli, but after looking everywhere, he couldn't see Yan Wanli's figure, he was shocked, and his brows were tightly locked.
"Gu Gongzi, have you ever seen Master Yan?"
Gu Shiming was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, I haven't seen anyone else since I arrived at the camp, maybe I'm hiding somewhere, after all, it's so chaotic now, it's too difficult to find someone." ā
Du Xiaochun nodded, and felt that it was so reasonable, but he was always at ease when he couldn't see Yan Wanli.
"There's someone in the tree!" At this moment, someone shouted
Gu Shiming and Du Xiaochun were shocked when they heard this, and at this moment, countless arrows came like raindrops, and in desperation, these people had to jump down and start a bloody battle with the remnants of the barbarians.
Just when they had just infiltrated the barbarian camp, Yan Wanli sneaked into a tent, and whispered to the people in the tent for a long time, the man smiled, just before the five hundred people set fire, the people in the tent had already left, and there were no people in the other tents, only some old, weak, sick and disabled barbarian soldiers were left here to resist, it can be said that this barbarian camp is completely empty.
While the five hundred men were fighting with the remnants of the barbarians, the woods three miles away were filled with barbarian soldiers, who were eyeing each other, but had no intention of stepping forward.
Just as the camp was about to burn out, these barbarian soldiers left unexpectedly, without making a sound, and the five hundred people did not notice it at all.
The barbarian camp was burned down under Yan Wanli's clever plan, and this was also the biggest victory in Beijun since the beginning of the war, and they themselves thought so. It's just that Yan Wanli was not found in the end.
The sky has dawned, and there are still more than 480 people left of the 500 people when they came, which can be said to be a complete victory, Gu Shiming led the team back to the main city of Beijun happily, while Du Xiaochun was full of worries, worried that he didn't know how to explain to Leng Qingfeng.
