The method is good, but there are still problems in implementation.

There is not much of a problem in choosing a position, just go to the place. But digging a trench is different, it's quite a laborious task.

Whether it was the royal army or the Qin people's own army, they all came here to fight, and it was impossible to hold a long ge in one hand and a shovel in the other (there were no iron tools at that time, at most bronze products) to fight and produce at the same time.

But the solution is always what people think, and as long as the thinking does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties.

After thinking for a while, Ying Kai said to Zuo Si: "Lord Zuo Si, digging a trench is a lot of work, and I have to trouble you to bring someone to complete it." ”

"Okay--" Zuo Si replied without thinking.

The promise is quick, but it is difficult to implement.

Ying Kai smiled and asked Zuo Sidao, "Have you ever figured out how to dig a trench?" ”

"This?" Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this matter seemed easy, but it was still very difficult to do, but he had promised that people would not regret it, and thought for a while, "How about I order the soldiers to dig the soil with Changge and swords, and transport it in chariots?" ”

That's a good idea.

Ying Kai nodded slightly after hearing this: "Although it is a little troublesome, but it has to be like this at the moment." ”

So Ying Kai said to Ying Bushou: "Second uncle, please write to Fengrong Wang Zhazha and challenge him." ”

"No---" Ying Bushou replied.

Then Ying Kai said to Ying Hai: "Fourth uncle, you will take someone down to bring up the Feng Rong corpse you killed last night, as long as our messenger leaves, you will take your soldiers to the Feng Rong camp with these corpses." Throwing these corpses around their camp, by the way, they wrote some provocative words, saying that these Fengrong people were the work of the Qin people, and as long as they do not come to fight, we will continue to kill their people until they withdraw from Longshan. ”

"Good Le---" This time Yinghai agreed very happily.

Soon, Ying Bushou had already written a challenge book, glanced at Ying Kai, and Ying Kai said to Ying Bushou: "Second uncle, you will read it to all of us, and everyone will say their opinions." ”

Ying Bushou read the challenge book he had written to Ying Kai and others. When Ying Kai heard this, the content basically met his own requirements, and everyone had no opinions, so Ying Kai said to the scout: "You will go to the Fengrong camp with the challenge book, and you must hand over the letter to the Fengrong King Zaza." ”

With that, ---the scout immediately mounted his horse and headed northwest with the letter.

After the scouts left, Ying Kai led the army to the northwest.

After walking more than 20 miles, we came to a relatively open place, which was surrounded by mountains on both sides, and there was a flat area in the middle that was three to five miles wide from north to south.

"What do you two uncles think this is a battlefield?" Ying Kai pointed to the place in front of him and asked Ying Bushou and Ying Zhaodao.

Ying Bushou looked around left and right, "There are openings here and there, there are mountains on the left and right, and the terrain in the middle is open, it should be a good battlefield, I thought it could be used as a battlefield." ”

"It's a good place, it can be used as a battlefield." Yingzhao also said.

"General Zuo Si, then you should lead your soldiers to dig a trench at the front and rear exits, preferably with thorns and sharpened sticks, and cover them with branches and thatch. You should understand this, right? ”

"My subordinates understand." Sima Zuosi replied.

Subordinate?

You call yourself a subordinate?

Sima Zuosi, who came from Wangcheng, actually called himself a "subordinate" in front of Yingkai.

Great progress!

You must know that there is no subordination between the royal family and the Qin people, not only is there no affiliation, but the people are also the superiors of your Qin people.

A petty official from a higher-level unit actually called himself a "subordinate" in front of Yingkai, and it seems that after these days of observation, this Sima Zuosi was completely impressed by Yingkai.

After listening to Zuo Si's words, Yingkai smiled embarrassedly, "Then trouble the general and the soldiers." ”

Although people call themselves "subordinates" in front of you, as a Qin person, Yingkai is very clear about his status and identity, and still calls Zuo Si a "general".

"Third uncle, after the trench is dug, you bring our Qin cavalry and challenge the enemy at the exit, once the enemy attacks, you flee to both sides, and lure the enemy into the trench we dug from the middle."

"Understood."

"Second uncle, you lead the troops to ambush on the mountains on both sides, and set up bows and arrows ready to shoot the enemy at any time." Ying Kai pointed to the slopes on both sides and said to Ying Bushou, "In this battle, we must try to avoid fighting head-on with the enemy and maintain our strength." ”

"No---"

It seems to be a casual arrangement, but it is actually a deliberate move. The reason why Ying Zhao was arranged to lure the enemy and Ying Bushou ambush, Ying Kai also thought about it, after all, Ying Bushou was old, and it was better to let Ying Zhao do it when he lured the enemy in. Even if there is a thing, young people always run faster than older people.

For many years, the Qin people and the surrounding Rong Di were all knife-to-knife and gun-to-gun battles, often under the attack of the enemy's short sword and fast horse, and ended in failure. However, since Yingkai took up the post of Sima of the Qin people in Inuqiu, the fighting style of the Qin people has obviously changed, although they still win by force, but there is obviously more outwitting in the middle.

Change can change lives.

It's a mouthful, it's practical to use, and it's timeless, and it sounds reasonable today.

Is it okay not to change?

If all people from ancient times to the present day were a tendon, they would definitely not survive today. Because beasts are skillful when attacking enemies, if primitive people do not change their style of rushing and fighting, sooner or later they will be wiped out by evolved beasts.

If the ancients did not learn to change, society would certainly not move forward.

Therefore, a history of human development is actually a history of continuous development and change.

The Qin people are no exception.

When they found that they couldn't do the northern Rongdi with a fierce attack alone, they also began to change and learned to use their skills to deal with Rongdi.

This kind of change was deeply felt by Ying Bushou and others.

"Okay, if you don't have any opinions, then let's split up and get ready to go!"

"No---"

Towards noon, the first wave of scouts returned.

"Report to ---, Lord Sima, the small one has been investigated clearly, the Fengrong camp is in the northeast of us, in a ravine less than a hundred miles away from here, and the camp tents are connected one after another, stretching for dozens of miles."

Yes?

Found it, and the enemy's camp was not far from here.

Ying Kai couldn't help but look at Ying Bushou and the others.

Similarly, Ying Bushou and others were also surprised. But they were surprised by the number of enemies.

The tent stretches for dozens of miles, so how many soldiers do you have to make?

"Good guy, it seems that the enemy has all moved to Longshan this time, and there are so many people?" Ying Bushou not only said.

"Of course, the enemy finally got the land of Longshan, can he not move his family?" Ying Zhao followed, "But the enemy is so numerous, it will take some effort if we want to win." ”
