"Another thing is about the recent influx of more and more refugees into Dongyu City, Captain Yan, you will tell you about the matter and your speculation."

"Here's the thing..."

After hearing that Yan Nan finished talking about the matter, the generals couldn't help but talk about it, Zhang Tianlang stood up and said, "Lord, no matter what, these eight heavenly kings must be exterminated!" ”

"That is, no matter what kind of conspiracy he had, as long as we destroy him, won't it all be solved?" Liu Gui said with a big grin.

Yan Nan smiled: "Liu Gui is right, we all think too much, it's just a gang of bandits, just wipe them out, how can there be so much nonsense!" ”

"My Dongyu City is full of elite soldiers in a hundred battles, my lord, I only lead a thousand soldiers and horses, and I will capture this bullshit eight heavenly kings to sacrifice my lord!" Gongsun got up and begged Liu De for battle.

"Hey, General Gongsun, aren't you grabbing credit? Lord, if you give a certain family 500 soldiers, you will definitely take three mountains. ”

Liu Gui patted his chest and reassured.

"That's it!"

Liu De pressed down with his hand to make everyone quiet, "This bandit must be exterminated, but we don't know anything except that there are eight people in the head of the thief, and we don't know how many soldiers the enemy has, whether they have been professionally trained; It is not known how many weapons and armor the enemy has, whether there will still be heavy weapons. Nine times out of ten, this bandit was raised by Yang Zichuan, the main purpose is to make Dongyu food and grass short, 160,000 soldiers and civilians, if there is a problem with food, the crowd will be excited, we will be in a hurry, into internal trouble, absolutely not careless! Yang Zichuan has served as the pastor of Yanzhou for many years, and he is quite a person, he will definitely know that our army will definitely go out of the city to suppress bandits, will he secretly support the bandits with weapons and equipment, or will the bandits in Sanshan be disguised by officers and soldiers! These must be clarified, and the soldiers must not be sacrificed in vain. ”

Liu De's words made the generals fall into deep thought, "Yannan, continue to send spies to investigate Sanshan, I don't care what method you use, after three days, I want to know the specific strength of Sanshan and the weapons and equipment they hold, and I can't let my soldiers die in vain without knowing anything." The others trained the soldiers, reorganized the army, and after three days, sent troops to suppress the bandits! Liu De ordered.

"Yes!"

All the soldiers stood up and shouted.

Three days later, after reconnaissance by Yannan spies, the enemy army was about 5,000 people, 2,000 of whom were armoured, most of them were untrained or even carried up the mountain, and there were no large weapons of destruction (crossbows, trebuchets).

Because Donghu and Beihu and Qiang are now fighting, the threat of Donghu is basically minimized, so Liu De decided to personally lead the troops to suppress the bandits, and ordered Zhang Tianlang, Liu Gui, and Gongsun Qi to stay in Dongyu, and a total of 8,300 men and horses from the southern Yan and Guan Yu departments went out with him, and Jian Yong was the staff officer.

After recruiting hundreds of craftsmen to go out with the army to build trebuchets and other siege equipment, Guan Yu was the vanguard to clear the surrounding bandits and prevent the thieves from scattering and fleeing, endangering the people.

......

"General, the enemy is not at war with our department at all, and retreats to Sanshan after a little contact, and now there are basically no thieves around Sanshan."

Zhou Cang said.

"It seems that the enemy army also knows that there is no chance of victory in a battle with us in a flat land, so they are ready to rely on the danger of the three mountains to stop our army!"

Guan Yu had long hair and phoenix eyes narrowing slightly, and he didn't care about the thief Kou Hao.

The ordered: "Order the soldiers to camp at the foot of Hutou Mountain, wait for the arrival of the lord, and patrol day and night to prevent the enemy from sneaking attacks." ”

"Zhou Cang understands!"

...

"Ding, the task is released, conquer Hutou Mountain, Qingpan Mountain, and Meihua Mountain, and the task reward: 1000 skill points, and a lottery.

Failure penalty with a random stat value of -5. ”

...

Liu De looked at the dangerous Hutou Mountain, and could vaguely see the outposts and camps built by the enemy army in the mountains, Yan Nan pointed to the Hutou Mountain and introduced to Liu De: "Our army has few soldiers and most of them are new soldiers, Hutou Mountain is the bridgehead of the three mountains, the most dangerous, the enemy army will defend Hutou Mountain, if our army attacks Hutou Mountain, the enemy army will defend according to the danger, our army may suffer heavy losses, and some gains outweigh the losses." ”

"These thieves just want to refuse to defend the Three Mountains and we will consume, we only carry a month's worth of grain and grass, if we can't exterminate it as soon as possible, there is only one way to withdraw the army." Zheng Fu (Deputy General Yannan) said helplessly.

Liu De pondered for a moment: "Can you lead the thief down the mountain?" ”

"I'm afraid it's difficult, the enemy army clearly wants to rely on the danger of Hutou Mountain to consume with us, I'm afraid they won't go down the mountain to fight us."

"Then let's set fire to the mountain and force the thieves down!" Zhou Cang said viciously.

"No!" When Jian Yong heard this, he hurriedly stopped: "The three mountains stretch for dozens of miles, surrounded by villages, the fire will be uncontrollable, injuring the innocent, and detrimental to the benevolence and righteousness of the lord, and I see that the enemy army has made a separation zone in the middle of the mountain, and I am afraid that setting fire to the mountain will not cause too much damage to the enemy army." ”

"Our army is small, and it is impossible to surround the three mountains, and it is easy for the enemy to escape if they want to."

The generals failed to come up with a very good plan for attacking Hutou Mountain.

...

Liu De asked the soldiers to recruit a guide and asked, "I don't know if the old man knows the trail leading to Hutou Mountain?" ”

The old man trembled and said: "General Qiyu, there are three paths leading to Hutou Mountain, all of which are intestinal paths, and the army is impassable at all!" ”

"It's okay, my husband can take us to check, and there will be a lot of thanks!"

"The general is here to suppress the bandits for our small people, I am very grateful to the small people, how dare I ask the general for compensation, I have a son, I can take the general to check!"

"Old man Gao Yi, General Yannan, send a sentry to check."

"The last general's order! Please! ”

"General, little old man retires!" After that, he withdrew from the account with Yannan.

Guan Yu said on the side: "Lord, there are only three roads leading to Hutou Mountain, I'm afraid that the thieves have already sent troops to guard it, and it will not be easy to sneak attack from the trail." ”

Liu De touched the small stubble under his chin, and pricked his hands a little: "I'm also thinking about this question, as long as I know a little bit about the art of war, how can the enemy army not know how to explore the mountain path?" But let's check it out, what if? ”

Although Liu De said so, he really didn't have much hope.

"Someone, call Xu Hai!"

Xu Hainai is the head of the craftsmen and craftsmen in the army, with rich experience and prestige. Liu De is from modern times, of course he knows the importance of craftsmen, and the current craftsmen are equivalent to scientists in his previous life! If the craftsman uses it well, he will have an army of 100,000, and Liu De attaches great importance to it.

However, because the time is still short, only one manufacturing department was established, and Xu Hai was appointed as the director of the manufacturing department, Jiupin official position, Xu Hai was originally a Dongyu craftsman, although he was the head of the craftsman, but his status was low, and no one in the family could afford them to be a group of mud-legged craftsmen! I never thought that one day I would serve as a state official and be so trusted by the lord, so since then, Xu Hai and a group of craftsmen have respected Liu De and obeyed his orders!
