Chapter 19: War is inevitable

The imprisoned enemy has run away, the situation is serious, and danger will follow.

"Doctor, what should I do?" Inuqiu Sima asked.

"This matter is urgent, what else can I do?" Qin Zhong said to Yingkai: "Quickly prepare the soldiers and horses, and chase --- with me."

"No---"

The people got on their horses and went out of the north gate and chased all the way to the north.

Coming out of Inuqiu, heading northeast, you will enter the Longshan area. Because Longshan is a big mountain, the mountains are full of small mountains, Bauhinia Mountain, Mudan Mountain, Fengtailiang, Qingliang Mountain, Beixiang Mountain, Panlong Mountain and so on are dotted with small mountain ranges.

After a day and a night of pursuit, Qin Zhong's horse team crossed one hill after another, and finally came to the northernmost part of Longshan. All the way through, there was no trace of Fengrong Tanma.

Where the hell have you been, this thief?

Standing here, Qin Zhong was in a difficult position, he didn't know what he should do next? Because further north is the Yanchi area, where is the current nest of Fengrong.

"Ahead is Feng Rong's base camp, what should we do?" Looking at the tents not far away, one after another, Qin Zhong asked Ying to open the way.

"Grandfather, come back, we have no choice but to fight." Ying Kai said to Qin Zhong.

Qin Zhong looked at the sky in the distance with a sad face, and did not move a step.

"Let's go, doctor, maybe Feng Rong has learned the news at this time and is mobilizing troops and horses. At this time, we should prepare for battle in advance, so as not to be caught off guard by the enemy. Seeing that Qin Zhong didn't move, Inuqiu Sima also followed.

"Let's go!" Qin Zhong turned his horse's head and said helplessly.

The matter has come to this point, and even if he wants to, there is no way to redeem it. A desperate battle is the only choice for the Qin people at the moment.

Back at Inuqiu, Qin Zhong didn't dare to rest, and immediately summoned all the officials of Inuqiu to come to discuss the matter.

After a while, all the officials of Inuqiu came to Qin Zhong's mansion, and compared with the excited expressions before, at this time, all the officials of Inuqiu had the word "sorrow" written on their faces.

Misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking.

The transition between blessing and misfortune is too fast, and last night everyone was still happily drinking and eating meat, talking about the future, and talking about ideals. But this morning, everything changed.

I don't know it at all.

Feng Rong scouted the horse and fled, the enemy should know the news, and the entire dog hill is in danger.

At this time, what was built in the city, what was built in the fortress, what was developed to the east, etc., and so on, all came to naught.

Before he could sit down, someone began to complain.

"How did this Inuqiu Sima do it, let him guard the enemy, how could he let the enemy run away?"

"That is, from the beginning, we shouldn't have offended the Tanma of Fengrong, let's see what trouble we cause!"

"People say that the tiger's butt can't be touched, but some people don't believe it, and touch the tiger's buttocks, now I know it's amazing!"

......

Listening to these complaining words, Yingkai's face was red and white. Although everyone didn't say it explicitly, there were already some complaints about him in their words.

Complaining is a "fine tradition" of Chinese people, whenever something happens, there are always people who like to complain about others to show their intelligence and difference.

Fortunately, it was grandfather Qin Zhong who spoke, "You probably already know about Feng Rong's escape from the horse, it has happened, everyone should not complain, let's talk about how we should deal with the upcoming battle." ”

"What else is there to say at this time? Just get ready for battle. The third child listened to it and said without thinking about it.

"Fighting? You're talking lightweight. All the soldiers and horses of the Qin people together were less than 5,000. Do you know how many soldiers and horses Feng Rong has? Qin Zhong was very dissatisfied and said to his son, "People have at least more than 10,000 cavalry, and there is such a huge difference in strength, what do you use to fight with others?" ”

"What if you don't fight, do you sit here and wait for death?" Yingzhao said unconvinced.

"I think the third brother's words are right, since Feng Rong wants to attack us, we have no choice but to fight, and it's useless to talk too much." The fourth Yinghai followed.

"Alright, don't shout. Of course I know that the fight is inevitable, but how to fight, we should always figure out a way! Qin Zhong said.

At this point, the fight is certain.

But how to fight, this matter is still to be discussed.

Many people are like this, venting their emotions to a top three; But if they have to come up with a good strategy, ten can't beat one.

"Let's talk about it! See how we can avoid this catastrophe. Qin Zhong continued to ask.

At the critical moment, he had to speak by his own people, and seeing that everyone didn't speak, Inuqiu ordered Zhao Zhou to say: "Doctor, I think something has happened, why don't we explain the situation to the people, so that everyone can be more or less prepared first, so as not to come to war, and the people will be killed and injured." ”

"In addition, we should immediately collect the people grazing around the dog mound into the city as soon as possible, otherwise our cattle and sheep will suffer heavy losses." Si Nong Ling Wang Kun also said.

The matter has come out, and the Qin people who are grazing outside have played a very bad role.

Just imagine, if all the Qin people didn't graze outside, where would Feng Rong Tanma get horses from? Without horses, how fast could he run on his own feet.

"Okay, you're all right, send someone out of the city to inform the surrounding people now?" Listening to everyone's suggestions, Qin Zhong arranged, "Someone is here, immediately send someone out of the city to inform the surrounding people who are still grazing outside to return to the city quickly, and at the same time move their respective cattle and sheep to a safe place." ”

"No---"

After the herald left, Qin Zhong asked, "Let's discuss how to fight this battle in order to win, or how to meet the enemy, our casualties will be smaller." ”

"Doctor, Rong Di has always been short and fast in battle, and the emphasis is on speed, as long as we can delay their march, we will be able to win the first opportunity." Inuqiu Sima said.

Drag?

Maybe it's a solution.

"In your opinion, how do we delay the enemy's advance?"

"I haven't thought about this yet." Sima was speechless.

Time was pressing, but everyone couldn't come up with a better way for a while, Qin Zhong had no choice but to turn his gaze to Ying Kai and said, "Kai'er, since you returned from Guanzhong, you can always come up with good suggestions and talk about your opinions. ”

Ying Kai got up, looked around at everyone present and said, "Everyone, judging from the current situation, a big war is inevitable. In order to prevent our Qin people from being too badly injured in this great battle. There are three strategies for reference. ”

Three strategies?

What an auspicious number!

You must know that the best number in ancient China is not today's eight-eighty-eight, fa fa fa, but three, six and nine, three represents the meaning of "many", six represents the meaning of "shun", and nine represents the meaning of "honorable".

"What are the three strategies, come quickly." When Qin Zhong heard this, he immediately became interested.

At this time, Qin Zhong, the leader of the Qin people, was like a drowning man, as long as there was anything he could rely on, he was willing to give it a try, regardless of whether it was a straw or a boulder.
