The two high-fived each other, and Cai Xiao asked his soldiers to give up an open space for them to rest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The thirty stabbers let go of their weapons, dismounted, and rested and waited in the place vacated by the soldiers.
Wang Huan came to everyone's side, took the water bladder hanging from the saddle, poured some water and wiped his blackened face on his hand.
Cai Xiao came to his fiancΓ©e Cai Wen, pulled her aside, sat down and asked about the ins and outs of the whole thing.
Cai Wen simply told how she was arrested, how Wang Huan rescued, how everyone escaped, and how to confront each other in the cave.
Hearing that Wang Huan used such a unique climbing method to go deep into the enemy's lair, he was stunned, and looked at Wang Huan, who was chatting and laughing with his subordinates in the distance, although he was not angry, he still sincerely admired it.
Especially when he heard that the purpose of his trip was to collect the corpses of his subordinates, there was a 180-degree turn in his heart about Wang Huan's prejudice, at least in his opinion, Wang Huan was a man who valued love and righteousness.
If he weren't interested in Cai Wen, maybe he could become a brother with him.
After a brief conversation with his fiancΓ©e, Cai Xiao sent her back to Lujiang City.
Before leaving, Cai Wen intimately helped him sort out the armor on his body, and said: "Brother, I'm leaving, you have to be careful in everything here, if there is any problem, you ...... You might as well ask for the advice of the prince. β
Cai Xiao said gently: "I know, you should be careful on the road, go back and report safety to your father." β
Cai Wen came to Wang Huan's side under the gaze of the military assassins and said: "Wang Gongzi, I will return to Lujiang first, save my life, he will report again in the future, the bandits are fierce, you pay attention to safety." β
Wang Huan looked at Cai Xiao, who was throwing a vigilant gaze from a distance behind her, just nodded and said "Okay" lightly, but didn't get up to see him off, looked at Cai Wen and sighed, and left under the escort of six soldiers.
Weng Li asked meaningfully, "Young master is jealous?" β
Wang Huan rolled his eyes and said, "No." β
Weng Li: "Oh, it may be that I am old, and my nose is not very good, so I asked a sour smell." β
Wang Huan: "Master, are you poor or not?" β
Weng Li: "Then Ling Fei, how do you explain it?" β
Wang Huan: "What do you explain?" β
Weng Li: "You just pretend!" β
Two hours passed, and scouts continued to come back to report the situation above.
Wang Huan picked up the bracelet hanging around his neck and studied it carefully, the bracelet did not emit a faint white light like last night, and there was nothing special about the hollow print on it.
The hollow character pattern is a pattern that is called the head of wealth and nobility by the Han folk.
It is a geometric pattern derived from the thunder pattern on ancient pottery and bronze, because it is a square or circular circular circular pattern composed of horizontal and vertical short lines, shaped like the word "Hui", so it is called a huizi pattern or back pattern.
I came into contact with the hollow pattern when I took the "Antique Appreciation" elective course before I crossed over, and this pattern can be traced back to the Stone Age, and is generally used for furniture, windows, and utensils, playing a role in decoration and embellishment.
As a jewelry, only the Qing Dynasty back pattern jade pendant is very popular, is this metal bracelet a modern industrial product?
"Prince Wang, my general is invited!"
Wang Huan, who was in thought, looked up at the soldier who interrupted his train of thought with dissatisfaction, and asked, "Who?" β
The soldier said expressionlessly, "General Cai." β
"Oh, you said Captain Cai? Let's go, take me there. After that, he put away his bracelet, got up and patted his buttocks, and followed the soldiers to Cai Xiao's temporary headquarters.
Coming to the open-air temporary headquarters with grain wagons as tables, the soldiers reported loudly: "General, Wang Gongzi has brought it!" β
Cai Xiao, who lowered his head and pointed, waved his hand at him after hearing this, looked back and saw Wang Huan, and said, "Go down." β
"No!"
After the soldiers left, Cai Xiao made a gesture of invitation to Wang Huan and said, "Can Wang Gongzi give us some guidance?" β
The results of the analysis of many intelligence from the hand made Cai Xiao restless, and now the remaining troops in his hands are about 1,500 people, Wang Huan's people can be ignored, there are still nearly 1,000 bandits, and the geographical advantage is obvious, and the previous tragedy of the attack and terror is about to be staged again.
After thinking about it, there was no better way to deal with it, thinking of Wang Huan, maybe he could really come up with a good idea, so he sent someone to invite him.
Wang Huan walked to the "table" with a smile and said: "General Cai is too exalted to me, I have never joined the army, I am just a businessman who sits on a small business, how dare I say anything to guide me." β
Cai Xiao said: "Wang Gongzi is too modest, please look at this map, our army is in this position," he said, pointing to the location near the Qingxian Pass on the stick figure map, "The bandit army is in this position." He gestured to a location on the map.
He retracted his hand and crossed his waist and said: "Our army still has more than 1,500 soldiers, and the number of enemy troops is nearly 1,000, and it is condescending, and our army will definitely be ambushed if it advances rashly, so I want to ask Wang Gongzi if he has any good advice." β
From Cai Xiao's attitude, eyes, words and deeds, Wang Huan did not feel the previous-for-tat feeling, and glanced at the map laid out on the car board, Wang Huan asked: "General Cai really wants to listen to my humble opinion?" β
Cai Xiao said: "I want to hear it in detail." β
Wang Huan said: "Then I can only talk to the general in detail." β
Cai Xiao said to several partial generals around him, the tun commander and the staff officer of the army: "You all go down first." β
Seeing the people around him scatter, Wang Huan lifted the map on the car board, took out a sketched map from his arms and spread it out, there were many symbols that Cai Xiao couldn't understand, but this painting was indeed better than the previous map.
Wang Huan had already thought of a way, but he lived in other people's armies, and went directly to Cai Xiao to tell his thoughts, it was inevitable that he would feel like he was slapped in the face, Cai Xiao came to the door and was in the middle of it, and at this time he pointed to the map and said: "If according to what you said, the distance between the bandits and us should be about 6 to 8 miles, right?" β
Cai Xiao looked at the detailed map and nodded, "Yes, according to the scouts, the bandit army is less than 5 miles away. β
Wang Huan picked up a charred branch next to him, drew three circles on the map of the road and the location of the hillsides on both sides, and said: "According to the display of the contour line on the map and my observation just now, the slope of the road leading to the bandit cottage is about 20 degrees, and the slope of the slopes on both sides is close to 40 degrees, and there will not be much error in extending up along the mountain range, and the difference between the hillside and the road is about 30 meters." β
Cai Xiao scratched his head and asked puzzledly: "What is a contour line?" What is rice? β
Wang Huan patted his head, hey...... Forgetting that this guy has not received modern education, he simply explained: "Rice is a unit of measurement, so let me tell you, 1 zhang is about equal to 2.4 meters, you know this, right?" β
Cai Xiao said in his heart: "That means that the drop is 12 zhang?" How to explain this slope? β
Wang Huan sighed and said: "Forget it, let's talk to you simply, if you lead the army forward with such a slope, the bandits will use the boulder and rolling wood of the scale of the green shark mouth to deal with you, the weight of the boulder rolling wood is at the initial velocity plus the acceleration provided by the slope, and the soldiers in your hands will be killed at least half!" β
Cai Xiao was close to collapse, he had never heard this inexplicable word in more than 20 years, and asked embarrassedly: "You...... Can you put it more simply? β
Wang Huan asked, "How many horses do you have left?" β
Cai Xiao summoned a soldier in charge of counting the battle damage and asked in detail, then returned to the carriage and said, "There are still 371 horses left that can be used." β
Wang Huan looked at the map and thought about it, nodded and felt that it should be enough, and then told Cai Xiao his thoughts in detail.
First, gather all the people sent out to patrol back, go to the location of the bandits on the mountain, and cooperate with the scouts to eliminate all the bandit scouts.
Second, organize two death squads and select 100 fast horses from the remaining horses, each of which is equipped with a fast horse for 100 people, and the task is to destroy the rolling logs and boulders set up by the enemy's ambush in advance.
Third, take the remaining 100 horses to the sides of the hillside, tie the horse's tail with ropes, and tie the other end with combustibles.
When everything is ready, first clear the opponent's "scouts" and bring the horses as close to the bandits as possible if the other party is not aware of them.
When the horses arrive at the designated location, they ignite the combustibles behind the horse's tail and drive the horses towards the bandits' ambush point, igniting the combustibles at the bandits' location.
After the fire broke out, the death squad took advantage of the situation to rush into the enemy camp and destroy the trap, and after the trap was destroyed, the bandits had nothing to do, and then raised troops to attack.
After listening to Wang Huan's plan, Cai Xiao suddenly felt enlightened, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this plan was feasible, and when he thought of the details, he asked: "How can you be sure that horses can ignite trees?" β
Wang Huan looked up at the mountains in the distance and said, "Since the bandits used fire in the first round of ambushes, I expect that there will be fireballs at the ambush point behind them, and as the altitude increases, there will definitely be more bushes than trees above, so it will definitely work!" Even if the fire attack is not good, relying on the collision of horses alone can disrupt the bandits' position and create opportunities for the death squad, but these horses are up to you to give up. β
"Willing to give up! Absolutely. "Compared to his own net worth and life, these hundreds of horses are not worth mentioning.
Wang Huan sighed and thought: This is the difference between a local tyrant and a dick, such a good horse, how much silver can you earn for Lao Tzu's pull/guest!
Cai Xiao clasped his fists and saluted Wang Huan, who was secretly settling accounts, and said: "If it weren't for Brother Tai's strategy today, I don't know when I would be able to exterminate the bandits!" β
Wang Huan waved his hand and said, "You're polite, it's just that there are some things you promised me, and you must not spread them!" β
He didn't want to expose too many things too early, but Zhang Feng's body was still waiting for him to bring back, and the anxiety in his heart was no less than Cai Xiao's, so he had no choice but to come up with a battle plan that was most effective and could solve the bandits the most quickly.
This strategy is also due to the game "Legend of the Three Kingdoms" played in the previous life, the southern barbarian military generals all have a skill, fire cattle group dance, watching the remaining horses become pickles for Chinese New Year's Eve, with it for the New Year and without it, he simply turned him into a modified version of the fire cattle group dance, fire horse group dance.
