Chapter 20 Li Dingguo is also a ruthless man

This time, Qin Yu only left a dozen injured teenagers to watch their homes.

The four half-person-high soy sauce jars, all filled with gunpowder, were more than 500 catties, and were fixed on top of two carts.

The guys in the hands of the teenagers are all lost, and they can't make up a single wooden stick in their hands, so they can only find a way when the time comes.

After finishing all this, the mother and daughter also finished preparing and walked out, both dressed in men's clothes, their hair tied up like a man, and their faces were even darker, leaving only two eyes, bright as snow in the night.

As soon as he appeared, the teenagers were startled, but Qin Yu looked at the feet of the two.

Li Wan'er is at the age of binding her feet, which is not a big problem, and Mrs. Li is a little troublesome, but fortunately, the women's foot-binding in the Ming Dynasty is not as perverted as the Qing Dynasty.

The scholars of the Ming Dynasty were not stupid, and their aesthetics were only stronger than those of modern people, unless their brains were broken, they would let women put the five fingers wrapped around their feet together, and the deformity would be disgusting at a glance, let alone holding it in their hands to play with it.

Therefore, women in the Ming Dynasty bound their feet, mainly to trim their appearance and make their feet smaller and more beautiful.

At this time, Li Dingguo was also prepared in the front yard, and came to the backyard with a team of people and horses with torches.

"Is Xiaoyu all right?"

"Well, it's time to go."

"We're going to ambush, not to bomb the city, why are you bringing so much gunpowder?" Li Dingguo looked at the four soy sauce jars on the cart and asked puzzled.

"Hehe, you'll know when you get to the place, with these four jars of gunpowder, the odds of winning are at least a few percent more."

"Oh!"

Li Dingguo saw that he looked mysterious, and he was also very curious, but seeing that he didn't explain too much, he didn't ask any more questions, but waved his hand.

"Let's go, then!"

"Let's go!"

A group of people with torches went out of the courtyard in a mess and gathered at the city gate, and more than 2,000 people fiddled for a long time before heading northwest along the official road.

As for Zhang Xianzhong, they are still in the whole team at the gate of Dongcheng.

There were more than 2,000 people, and there were more than 300 torches, and the dense team was almost crowded, and they walked very slowly.

There is no way, except for Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, everyone else is blind, even Qin Yu is no exception.

"Xiaoyu, you... How did you bring them with you? Isn't this nonsense? ”

It was only at this time that Li Dingguo recognized who the two people who were following behind Qin Yu, and his jaw almost dropped.

"Dingguo, I'm not helpless? Don't you know your big brother's urine? ”

"Xiaoyu, men should put great things first, how can you put your mind on women every day? It's so undeserved! ”

Li Dingguo looked serious, and with a bang, he pulled out the long knife at his waist.

"Dingguo, what are you going to do?" Qin Yu was anxious when he saw this, and the mother and daughter were even more frightened and hid behind him.

"Xiaoyu, you get out of the way, I have to slaughter these two girls today, lest you indulge in women all day long, and have a gap with your eldest brother in the future!"

Li Dingguo looked murderous, he naturally knew that the eldest brother and Qin Yu blushed and had a thick neck every time they argued, and most of them were caused by this girl.

So I reminded Qin Yu more than once to get rid of that girl, but Qin Yu was perfunctory every time, and he didn't have much to say, and now he even had to bring it to the war, so he couldn't bear it.

"Dingguo, things are not what you think, you listen to me, when I was begging in Gucheng, Mrs. Li was kind to me..."

Qin Yu didn't doubt that Li Dingguo, this kid, would destroy flowers with his hands, so he had to quickly explain to him.

"I see, why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought you..."

Li Dingguo was also relieved after hearing this, returned the knife into the sheath, and complained.

Not only did he not blame Qin Yu anymore, but he also admired him for his kindness and retribution.

The mother and daughter were scared into a cold sweat, their legs and feet were weak, and they couldn't walk.

Li Dingguo took pity on the jade this time, and ordered someone to vacate a cart, and let the mother and daughter sit on the cart left and right, pushed by a strong man.

………

"Dingguo is here, let the army stop."

"Xiaoyu, are you mistaken? It's not a good place for an ambush, and seven or eight miles further on, there's a valley there, and the terrain is quite steep..."

"I know the valley you said, you all know that the terrain there is steep and easy to ambush, and the Ming army also wants to get it, this time we are taking it by surprise!

Imagine that if the Ming army cautiously passed through the valley and found that there were no ambushes, they would definitely relax their vigilance, and at this time, we would be ambushed in that wood, and suddenly killed, and there was a small river opposite, which would definitely catch them off guard. ”

Qin Yu smiled and explained.

"That's right! Then listen to you, just ambush here. ”

Li Dingguo thought about it, and this was indeed the case.

"That's okay, you take someone to the woods to sleep and rest first, pay attention when you go in, don't mess up the woods, I'll take someone to arrange it on the road."

Qin Yu didn't know what time it was, so he estimated that he should have walked more than thirty miles.

Li Dingguo didn't say much, and led more than 2,000 troops to the woods on the left, while Qin Yu took the young man to dig a pit on the official road.

"Madam, you and Wan'er should also find a place to rest!" Qin Yu saw that the mother and daughter followed wherever they went, especially Li Wan'er was still holding her sleeve, so she had to say.

The mother and daughter both shook their heads desperately, looking around vigilantly, obviously frightened by Li Dingguo on the road.

Qin Yu didn't care, while directing the teenagers to dig a pit, he asked the other teenagers to go to the river to pick up small stones.

Four big pits are arranged on the official road every 100 meters, and a small pit is dug more than 20 meters on the left side of each big pit, and just one person squats down.

After the pit was dug, four huge soy sauce jars were buried in it, and many small stones were piled on top of it, and then a small ditch was dug and the fuse was moved into the pit and covered with dry earth.

Fortunately, it hasn't rained for a long time, and as long as you get the fresh soil that has just been dug up, there is no trace of it.

After doing this, the sky was already dark, and Qin Yu called the four henchmen to his side.

"Listen, when the time comes, squat in the pit, don't make a sound, and when you hear the monkey's bird, you light the fire, do you remember clearly?"

"Remember, Chief!"

The four teenagers were excited, but also with a hint of apprehension.

"Don't be afraid, as long as you stay in the pit all the time, you won't be able to make a movement, and after success, everyone will remember a lot of work and reward a chicken."

Qin Yu patted the shoulders of the four of them, and each of them stuffed a fire fold and asked them to squat into the pit.

Then it was covered with sticks of hay, covered with dirt, and finally sprinkled with a layer of dry ash, leaving only a hole the size of a finger.

At this time, Li Dingguo also killed him, Qin Yu explained to him, and Li Dingguo couldn't help admiring: "You still have a lot of ideas, you can even think of this method, tsk!" That's a good idea! More effective than a cannon ... Ha ha! ”

"Haha, this is called adapting measures to local conditions, which is enough for officers and soldiers to enjoy themselves."

The two of them laughed out loud.

Qin Yu thought for a while, and added: "By the way, you must restrain your subordinates, don't make a movement in the woods, otherwise your efforts will be wasted, and it's better to catch some birds..."

"It's still thoughtful, how did I forget this stubble." Li Dingguo slapped his forehead and came to his senses.

"Let's go!"

Qin Yu yawned, glanced at the official road without a trace, and waved his hand.

He knew that Li Dingguo was still young, not as mature and stable as he was when he resisted the Qing Dynasty in later generations, but at a young age, he could also see the potential of a famous general.
