The soldiers in the open space gobbled up steamed buns into their mouths, their dark eyes looked like they hadn't closed their eyes for several nights, and they were napping with their hands on their knees. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The major general practiced his martial arts with a golden steel spear, his feet were spread apart, his right hand threw out the golden steel spear, his left foot was independent, his right foot was bent, and he put it on the knee of his left foot, and a return pistol stabbed to the left, repeating the exercise.

Night Withered Grass approached the army leisurely and raised his voice: "Which one is the major general?" ”

When the young general heard the sound, he stopped the golden steel gun in his hand and asked suspiciously: "It's the young general below, I don't know what the old gentleman is called?" ”

Night Dry Grass clenched his left hand into a fist and placed it on his waist, touched his white beard with his right hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm Mr. Yan, the young general should know my name, right?" ”

"It turned out to be the legendary array master, and it was really a disappointment in the next place, I hope you will forgive me." The Major General was surprised.

Night Withered Grass approached the side of the soldiers, observed the armor on their bodies, and pretended to be embarrassed and said, "The old man has something that needs the cooperation of the major general and the soldiers, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" ”

"Mr. Yan, you say, we must cooperate." The Major General said respectfully.

Night Withered approached the young general, pointed at the silver armor with his finger, and said with a smile: "I wonder if the armor of the young general and the soldiers can be borrowed from the old man?" ”

"However, we still have to go to the army to fight, and we can't be in shape without armor." The major general said embarrassedly.

The soldiers who were napping all woke up, saw the old gentleman in front of them, recognized it as the master of the formation at a glance, got up in a panic to pay respects, and said with a look of admiration: "With Mr. Yan in charge, this battle is certain, and what you need is ordered." ”

Night Withered Grass said mysteriously, "Well, let's say, take off your armor first, and follow me to the castle tower." ”

The soldiers took off their armor, held it in their hands, and accompanied the night withered grass to the castle tower.

The city tower was crowded with soldiers and prisoners, curiously waiting for Mr. Yan's next move.

The expression on the night withered grass's face became serious, and he began to arrange the thoughts in his heart, cleared his throat in a hoarse voice, and said seriously: "Now until dark, we all divide the labor and cooperate, and the prisoners are responsible for finding straw, the more the better, gather under the city gate; The soldiers put their armor on the tower, and then gathered all the people of the city under the gate. ”

After receiving the order, everyone went down to the city tower to complete the task.

Dao Weiming came to the night withered grass and asked uncertainly, "What are you doing?" The 100,000-strong army of the Northern Kingdom will definitely raid at night and take the city of Long Spoon, are you kidding them if you ask them to find straw? ”

"You'll understand soon." The night withered grass didn't say anything more to her, and it depended on whether it worked or not.

The prisoners pushed carts full of straw in the back and gathered at the city gate one after another.

The soldiers also rushed to the city gate with the people of Long Spoon City, their faces were full of victorious expressions, and their hopes were all pinned on Mr. Yan's hands.

Seeing that the night withered grass was almost assembled, he went down to the city tower and instructed the people: "The people of Long Spoon City, you are very much needed at this moment, to prevent the surprise attack of the northern army after dark, and the women each carry a bundle of straw to the city tower to weave into a straw man, and then put on their armor; The others helped to find the oil and fill a bucket, and Mr. Yan thanked everyone for their help. ”

"The soldiers are responsible for collecting the shields and placing them on the castle tower."

"The prisoners were in charge of finding wood, collecting as much wood as they could, and putting it on the castle tower."

After explaining the matter, he asked Dao Weiming for some bottles and cans, and said to the young general: "Please let the young general ride on a white horse and accompany me to Beizhen Ancient Village." ”

"Yes!" After the young general finished speaking, he went to lead the white horse, stepped on the horse's pedal with his left foot, and stepped on the horse's back with his right foot.

The young general rode a white horse to the side of the night withered grass and stretched out his right hand.

The night withered grass put his hand on the young general's right hand, and he lifted it hard, and the whole person easily got on the horse's back, and nervously hugged his waist.

The young general rode the white horse and quickly walked through the busy street, the war was imminent, and he didn't have the heart to take care of too much, he just wanted to finish Mr. Yan's explanation quickly.

Night withered grass hugged the young general in front of her with a lot of heart, and she was inexplicably excited, she finally saw her relatives, or the eldest brother who trusted her the most, and she really wanted to go back to the general's mansion.

The horse was stopped, and the major general turned around and asked, "It's time to go to the ancient village of Beizhen." ”

Yes! Night withered grass looked around, it was really the ancient village of Beizhen, got off the horse, his eyes dodged, and said weakly: "That...... You wait here for the old man, and I'll go get something. ”

"Mr. Yan don't worry, I'll wait for you here." The major general said.

The Night Withered grass turned its head and smiled at him as it walked forward, sneaking into the ghost forest to look for the mulberry poison.

The fog in the forest was too heavy to see what was ahead, and there was a violent shaking, and the whole forest was shaking, and the slender tree trunks fell, and the birds in the trees were frightened, and they all flew vigorously into the air.

The night withered grass did not stand firmly, sat on the ground with a butt, hit the flowers and plants with his right hand, the green leaves withered instantly, and before he could react, he found a mulberry flower under his feet, and the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally found you. The left hand touched the mulberry flower, quickly withered, turned into a dried flower, repeatedly beaten into powder with a stone, put it into bottles and cans, and was done, left the ghost forest, did not go far, always felt that there were a pair of eyes staring behind him, looked back, nothing, and sped up his pace with a blank face.

The major general looked in that direction anxiously, why didn't he come back, nothing would happen! Riding a horse to find someone along the route, I saw someone running over in a panic in front of me, and when I saw that it was Mr. Yan, I immediately stretched out my hand to pick him up on the horse.

Night withered grass happily hugged the waist of the young general, and now the odds of winning increased again, and he indulged in self-satisfaction.

The young general turned his head and glanced at it, thinking that Mr. Yan was all old, his body was still so strong, and he still had a young mentality, which was really admirable.

The straw figures woven by the women were ready, and one by one they put on their armor and placed them on the tower; The people filled their buckets with oil and laid them neatly on the towers. The prisoners carried cartloads of lumber up to the castle towers; The soldiers stacked their shields on the city tower, and everyone waited for Mr. Yan to look at them.

General Night looked at these things with a puzzled expression, straw men, armor, fire oil, shields, what do these have to do with the array, his heart was a little shaken, and he began to question.

After reading it, Dao Weiming's face cramped, he shouldn't be allowed to play Mr. Yan, if he was really present, he wouldn't vomit blood.

The withered grass dismounted, and walked up to the castle tower with confidence, but was about to elaborate on the details when he was interrupted.

General Ye directly questioned the words: "If Mr. Yan doesn't have a good way, you just say it, we won't blame you, but you delay time like this, ......"

The people were also anxious when they heard this, and said uneasily: "Mr. Yan, is what General Ye said true?" ”

Night Dry Grass said helplessly: "Don't be impatient, everyone, the old man is about to explain to you." ”

When the people heard the explanation, they became irritable and said unhappily: "What do you mean? Is Mr. Yan playing tricks on us? ”

Night Withered Grass hurriedly explained: "Listen, I have already thought of a way to deal with the enemy army, and now the drill is for everyone to see, please believe the old man." ”

"First tie the straw man with hemp rope and place it in all corners of the concave and convex mouth of the tower, and then put the shield behind the scarecrow."

"Then build a square shelf out of wood and put it behind the shield, so that the scarecrow and the shield are not in place."

"Finally, squat down along the rope, don't get up, just be responsible for verbally provoking the enemy.

"The next is the old man to personally operate it for everyone to see, the first row is for the soldiers, the second row is for the prisoners, and the third row is for the people, this is the slogan, which row I shout to act, you can remember how many rows you are."

"A platoon of drills begins, please stand in the safe area I set up and carry their quivers, the three rows of people will load arrows for you, it is the best arrow of the Northern Divine Arrow Soldiers, listen to me shout to release the arrows, you will come forward and release the arrows."

"Three rows of people squatted behind along the hemp rope distance, I shouted to pull the rope, you pull the rope back, then the scarecrow will also pull back, and it will be full of enemy arrows, and then take the arrows down and put them into the quiver of a row of soldiers."

"The second row of prisoners is responsible for pouring oil outside the city gate, as far as you want, I shout to pour oil, you will splash it; After the three rows of people loaded the arrows, the next task was to light the scarecrow and throw it out of the city gate. ”

"When the enemy army is defeated, open the city gate and kill it, and the enemy army withdraws within ten meters, and we will also withdraw our troops and return quickly."

The night withered grass talked about all the plans, and did not say a word about the prepared mulberry poison.

After everyone listened to the plan, their uneasy hearts calmed down and they began to deploy.

The dark and dreary night seemed to be smeared heavily on the sky, and there was not even the glimmer of the stars, and it was silent.

The night withered grass crouched behind and did not dare to squeak, hanging his heart, and was not completely sure that the enemy army would surprise tonight, and if he miscalculated, all plans would come to naught.

A long time passed, and there was no movement outside the city gates, and the hearts of the people became restless, and their patience was worn out little by little. Suddenly, a man stood up, discarded the hemp rope in his hand, and said timidly: "I won't do it anymore, it's better to find a place to hide than to wait for death here." The man left the tower angrily.

Nightdry grass is still full of confidence and said: "Please believe in the old man, success or failure is tonight." "In place of the man who left, take over the work of pulling the twine.

Outside the city gate, the sound of horses' hooves and the rough voice continued: "The Divine Arrow Soldier is ready, shoot all the Qi troops on the city tower for me." ”

Nightdry grass was so happy that she finally fell for it.

The 10,000 divine arrows in the north drew their bows and aimed at the Qi army standing in the city tower, shooting countless arrows, until the Qi army was shot like a hedgehog and did not stop.

The scarecrow filled the arrows shot by the northern kingdom and returned with a full load.

The man on the dark horse commanded, "Knock open the gates for me." ”

When Nightdry Grass heard that they were about to hit the city gate, he immediately gave an order: "The second row of prisoners will step forward and remove the square wooden frame, and the third row of people will pull ropes and load quivers." ”

The second row of prisoners stepped forward and removed the square wooden frame, and the shield fell to the ground without a support; As soon as the three rows of people pulled the hemp rope, the scarecrow in armor fell to the ground, dragged out of the safe area, pulled out the arrows stuck in the straw, and put them into the quivers of the soldiers.

The night withered grass then issued a second command: "The second row of prisoners prepare fire oil and pour oil on me, and the third row of people prepare to light the straw and throw it at the city gate." ”

The prisoners in the second row lifted the oil drum, raised their left hand high, supported the bottom of the barrel with their right hand, and tilted the barrel surface to pour out the oil and spill it from the castle tower.

More than 100 people from the north carried a huge long log and hit the city gate, but unexpectedly a layer of fire oil was poured on their heads.

Three rows of civilians lit straw and threw it out of the city gate, falling on the enemy soldiers who were poured fire oil, and a ball of fire burned more than 100 enemy soldiers under the city gate, and the surface of the huge long wood was also burned by the flames.

The dark horse man was furious and continued to order: "Give it all to me." ”

The 100,000 troops of the northern kingdom rushed straight to the city gate, brought ladders, and put them on the city walls, and climbed up one by one.

The third command was given by the night withered grass: "The first platoon of soldiers will give me arrows, and the second row of prisoners will prepare four square wooden frames and throw them on the heads of the enemy soldiers who climb up the ladder." ”

General Night and Major General were dumbfounded, and they didn't assign things to them throughout the whole process, so their advantages increased little by little, and they really deserved to be masters of the formation.

Dao Weiming was surprised by what the night withered grass did, but I didn't expect this kid to hide it deeply, I underestimated him too much.

In the dark night, hundreds of thousands of troops from the north were densely packed outside the city gate, and a row of soldiers took the arrows of the north and shot them back.

The second platoon of prisoners held the quadrangle wooden frame and threw it at the enemy, hitting several enemy soldiers who climbed up.

Nightdry grass was satisfied with a scissor hand, touched the white beard, and measured the hour.

The dark horse man found out about the plan and ordered the troops to retreat.

Night withered grass shouted: "Night general, major general, all the soldiers will go out of the city gate with me, and kill them within ten meters without leaving a single piece of armor." ”

After receiving the order, the city gate was opened, everyone got on their horses, and the night withered grass sat on the white horse of the major general, and ordered: "You rush to the front, rush to the center of the enemy's army, and when I say withdraw, withdraw immediately." ”

"Yes!" The Major General replied.

The major general rode a white horse and was the first to rush out of the city gate and rush to the center of the enemy army.

The night dry grass took out a small bottle, opened the wooden cork on it, raised his hand, and sprinkled the mulberry poison, which blew on the enemy's face.

The enemy troops in the north who were retreating on horseback were poisoned by mulberry flowers, and the blisters on their faces swelled, and they fell off their horses in pain and rolled back and forth on the ground.

Nightdry grass continued to instruct the major general: "Ride forward in a circle." ”

The major general received the order and continued to rush forward, making a circle.

Night withered grass sprinkled mulberry poison one after another, and after sprinkling, he withdrew his hand and ordered: "The young general can go back to the city gate, they have been poisoned and will not live long." ”

The northern army had already left the gate of the Long Spoon ten meters away, and those who ran slower were poisoned by the mulberry flower and fell down.

The Qi army abided by Mr. Yan's explanation and collectively withdrew his troops.

The gates were closed again, and the people gathered around the withered grass and shouted in victory: "We have won!" Long Spoon City has been saved! I didn't believe Mr. Yan at the beginning, but now I think about it, I'm really ashamed. ”

"Let's all go back and rest! Raise your spirits and have to fight against the odds tomorrow. "There isn't much joy in the Nightshade, this victory is only a temporary preservation of Long Spoon City, and for the northern army, it will still come again.
