Chapter 491: Differences in Experience

Ding Qilin is a smart man, he has planned to do support since he sent troops over, and now he is arranging according to Li Jing's method, will he not know this kind of tactic.

It's just to give Li Jing a chance,

The leopard cavalry is a tiger and wolf soldier, and what they are best at is fighting in complex situations, and fighting in the mountains and forests is not what they are best at, and it is okay if they insist on fighting in the mountains.

But he didn't want to complicate things, since he had a plan, why let his brothers take risks, and besides, this was just the right thing to see Li Jing's ability.

The soldiers and horses withdrew, leaving less than a thousand people to search around, and the search lasted for three days, and the people on the mountain sent people to observe secretly every day, and the news was brought back to make the people feel nervous.

"Don't be afraid, if they don't go into the mountain, it means that there is no way to take us, let's stay on the mountain and wait for them to go, we are going down the mountain."

"Yes, let's stay in the mountains, and we'll leave when they come, and we'll leave sooner or later when they get nothing."

"We are familiar with the terrain, they will always want to find us, don't be afraid to wait for them to leave us and go down the mountain to be happy."

The people on the mountain may not know it, but the people down the mountain have already guessed the situation they are facing, and then they are waiting for them to fall into the net.

Three days later, the watchmen sent to the bottom of the mountain brought back good news.

"Haha, those foreign soldiers don't have a problem with us at all, let's go down the mountain and have a good time."

"Don't worry, wait a little longer."

"How long will we wait, we have been trapped in this mountain for more than half a month, there is not much left to eat, and I can't live this kind of life, I have already had enough, brothers, let's go down the mountain to grab a big family, have a good meal, is there anyone coming."

"Okay, I haven't eaten anything cooked in a few days, I'll go."

Some of the people on the hill began to get restless.

"Brothers, don't worry, wait for those soldiers to leave, just endure for two days."

There are still smart people, who can only try to persuade, and generally some ideas are more convincing to everyone, and then the dozens of people who were just about to get together were appeased before settling down.

Up and down, the vanguard did not all withdraw, but still left a few squads hanging around, their purpose was not really patrolling but to confuse the enemy.

You can't just take someone away all of a sudden, but anyone with a little brain will notice that something is wrong.

For five days, Ding Qilin and his soldiers and horses did not leave, all of them were hidden, and the people outside were all sent by Li Jing, reducing the number of patrols every day, and after another three days, the people on the mountain finally couldn't bear to divide into several waves of people to go down the mountain.

"Li joined the army, the scouts came to report, and the people on the mountain were divided into six lives, and they came down the mountain from different directions, and there were at least seventy people."

"This is a deliberate temptation, it seems that there are still smart people on the mountain."

Li De thought about it, there are five or six thousand people in the mountain, and sending dozens of people down is not a temptation or something, if you don't care about the people who go down the mountain, they will definitely bring a lot of food when they go back, even if they are not enough, they can hold out for a few days.

If they don't come out of the mountains, they will take them for nothing.

The guards asked, "Are they being arrested?" ”

"No, let them go back, our plan is to let these people down and come out of the mountains." Li Jing said.

The guards do so, he will not bargain with the lord, and all actions must be done strictly.

Seventy or so people each carried food, which could not solve the problem of feeding 5,000 people, but it could alleviate their embarrassment to some extent in the case of temptation.

Li Jing's purpose in not withdrawing all the people was to prevent the enemy from becoming suspicious.

When these men returned, they had already pursued them according to the good soldiers, but they did not really catch up with them, and finally put them into the mountains.

Seeing this, the mountain bandits became more and more emboldened, and after several times, Li Jing withdrew all the people.

If you can't catch someone, it's not a way to waste it here, and there must be one side that has to back down.

The mountain bandits spent another 10 days on the mountain, and within a few days they sent out a lot of people, and when they saw that there was no one left, they relaxed, and when the people who were nested in the mountains learned that the officers and soldiers had withdrawn, they were all busy trying to go down the mountain.

"Haha, Zhangshui is still our world, let's go with my brothers and have a good time." There is a restless downward and downward vice, and the vice is immediately revealed.

Many people are not surprised, they are all suffocated in the upper room, and they dare not make a fire, otherwise they will be easily discovered if they are discovered, and what they want to do most is to go and have a good meal.

Maybe that's all they want, drink wine and eat meat.

"Let's go back to our territory first." Someone began to organize.

"Brothers, don't leave yet, just take this opportunity to discuss the matter of the union, otherwise it will be scattered everywhere."

As soon as a few copycat brothers heard this, they discussed the matter, and they must have wine and meat when they were invited, and who didn't want to go if they could have a big meal, they simply agreed.

Five or six thousand people acted together in this way.

"Listen, it seems to be moving." Suddenly, someone was alert, and then lay on the ground and said.

"See, I've been tricked, run." Someone shouted.

They wanted to escape, but at this time, the leopard riders had already felt that all the soldiers who had been lying in ambush around them had been killed.

As soon as the two sides met, a battle began.

Li Jing had a cold face at this time, he was not very happy to deal with these rabble at his first stop, and he lost the terrain advantage and made the vanguard soldiers spend so long, and he was already holding back his anger in his heart.

Today is the time to settle accounts, how can you have a good face and take people to take away the enemy's back road, people have already been arranged around the mountains and forests, so that the enemy can't escape towards the mountains at all.

What's more, this is on the avenue, and it didn't take long for a pair of brave cavalry to directly split these people in two.

When Youzhou City sent supplies, the matter of Zhangshui had been resolved, and the two sides met on the way back, just when the vanguard was about to run out of food.

Half a month later, Ding Qilin and Li Jing returned to Youzhou City and returned triumphantly, in addition to bringing back the victory and bringing back 5,000 laborers, Li Jing originally meant not to leave a single one.

But Ding Qilin has been with Li De for a long time, and he has more experience in this kind of thing than Li Jing, although these are some villains, it does not affect giving them a chance to mend their ways.

This opportunity may be ten or twenty years, depending on their performance.

"It's good to come back safely, the soldiers who rewarded the triumph today, go and arrange it first, and then set up a banquet in the Governor's Mansion later." Li De personally greeted him at the door, and he was happy to have won the battle.

Victorious, but Li Jing's mood was not too good, it took such a long time to deal with the mountain bandits, he couldn't go in his heart, and felt that he had a heavy trust.

Ding Qilin is not so hypocritical, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and besides, some twists and turns in the process are good, this is the difference between experience and inexperience.
