Chapter 72: The Story of Xiaoqingshan's Suppression of Bandits (I)

Listening to Gao Shun's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but nodded.

Does covert raiding have anything to do with sunny and cloudy skies?

Of course there is.

The two trails on Xiaoqingshan, Gao Shun knows, it is impossible for the thieves not to know these two trails.

These bandits will definitely send people to guard these two paths, of course, the number of people must not be too much.

If it's a sunny day, there will be shadows when the sun shines.

If there is a shadow, the risk of leakage will be greatly increased when engaging in a sneak attack.

There is no shadow on a cloudy day, and the success rate is higher.

Many generals like to choose the night when raiding and attacking the city, in fact, the same reason.

Well, if you want to attack the Xiaoqingshan Mountain bandits, Gao Shun didn't want to do it at night, but it was a bit difficult.

Xiaoqingshan Mountain is treacherous, and it is difficult to walk during the day, let alone at night.

I can't even see the road clearly, why are you doing a sneak attack?

You can't light a torch and sneak attack, right?

After deciding on the plan, after a day of preparation, on the third day, Lu Bu led the hundred-man team, and Gao Shun led the men who fell into the camp, and set off quickly.

After summarizing, Lu Bu led a team of 100 people, and then Gao Shun was trapped in the camp and sent 100 people to cooperate with Lu Bu to feint head-on.

And Gao Shun led 200 people to trap the camp and sneak attack from the path.

When he was about to arrive at Xiaoqingshan, Gao Shun had already sent scouts to clean up all the spies of Xiaoqingshan bandits.

Then Gao Shun took the first step and secretly rushed to the back mountain.

And Lu Bu led a team of 200 people and quickly drove to the halfway point of the Xiaoqingshan bandits.

This location was also decided by Lu Bu and Gao Shun after discussion.

The location here is considered the best position to attack, and if you go up, the terrain is dangerous, and as long as these bandits get stuck in the vital parts, the attacking soldiers will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

In this position, although you can't attack the bandits, you have enough deterrence against the bandits.

Because this location is the only way for thieves to go down the mountain, others block this place, which can be regarded as blocking the door of the house!

Soon, the spies sent by the bandits discovered Lu Bu's army and hurriedly ran back to the cottage in a panic to report it.

"Oh no, no, big boss, there are a large group of officers and soldiers passing by at the foot of the mountain, murderous, it seems to be coming for us!"

Hearing the news, the bandits of the entire cottage panicked.

Don't look at the ferocity of these bandits when they face the people, when they really face the officers and soldiers, they all become frightened birds.

"Ma Liu, how many of these officers and soldiers are there?"

"This, this, it seems that there are four or five hundred people!"

Well, when he came, Lu Bu estimated that the line was relatively long, in order to confuse the eyes and ears of those bandit spies.

These bandit spies panicked when they saw the ranks of officers and soldiers, where would they carefully count how many officers and soldiers went up the mountain?

The number of people led by Lu Bu was two hundred, and this spy reported four or five hundred people, which was only a little more than twice as much, which was already quite rare.

Listening to the spy's words, the big boss couldn't help frowning tightly.

"Brothers, now that officers and soldiers are coming to attack our cottage, I wonder what your brothers have in mind?"

One of the burly thieves patted his chest and said: "The soldiers are coming to block, and the water is coming to cover the earth, I'm afraid of him as a ball!" Come one to kill one, come two to kill them a pair! ”

The big boss couldn't help frowning and said, "Do you remember the situation when the second master, the one-eyed dragon, took his brothers down the mountain more than a month ago? More than a hundred brothers, not a single one came back! These officers and soldiers are not good! ”

A small leader with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks said disrespectfully and panickedly: "The big boss, the officers and soldiers are heavy, we can't resist it at all!" In my opinion, let's hurry up from the back mountain! If it's late, I'm afraid I won't be able to run away! ”

The big boss snorted coldly and said, "If we just run away like this, then what will we do with the food and money we loot?" Just gave it to those officers and soldiers for nothing? All these years, all these years have been in vain? ”

The little leader of the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks blinked his eyes and said to himself: "Give this money to the brothers and it's over!" As for food, even your life is dying, so are you still thinking about food here? You're funny, aren't you?

However, when I saw that the eyes of the big boss were not good, I didn't dare to talk more!

The big boss couldn't help but look at a scholar-like person next to him and asked, "Strategist, I don't know what you have in mind?" ”

The military advisor looked at the bandits around him, his face showed a trace of disdain, and then said to the big boss: "The big boss, brothers, our cottage is built on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Just four or five hundred officers and soldiers want to capture our cottage, it's just nonsense! ”

The military advisor's words caused everyone to laugh, but the fear in their hearts suddenly lightened a lot.

That's right, our cottage is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are four or five hundred officers and soldiers, what are we afraid of?

I heard the military advisor continue: "The most important thing now is to see what is the purpose of these officers and soldiers? Is it to recruit An? Or do you want to exterminate? Or is it just routine? ”

"Even if the officers and soldiers are powerful, we want to leave, we can't just ignore it and scatter from the back mountain! Let's run ahead, the officers and soldiers are chasing behind, is there still a way for us to live? ”

"Even if you find out the real intention of the officers and soldiers, if you have to leave, you have to wait until the evening to quietly leave from the back mountain!"

After listening to the words of the military advisor, the bandits present, including the big boss, were all impressed.

The military advisor's face showed a look of pride.

After staying for a while, the military advisor continued: "By the way, now immediately send someone to the back mountain to keep an eye on it, and see if there are any officers and soldiers in the back mountain to surround it!" ”

Hearing the words of the military advisor, the big boss couldn't help but be taken aback, and immediately sent two teams of bandits to the back mountain to guard.

The terrain of the back mountain is even more treacherous than the front, and there is no need for too many people to guard it at all.

It was more than enough to send two teams of men over.

Then the big boss said to the burly thief who was the first to speak just now: "Pheasant, you bring some brothers over to have a look, and inquire about the purpose of these officers and soldiers?" ”

The pheasant stood up and said angrily: "Yes, big boss, I'll go!" ”

Soon, the pheasant led fifty or sixty bandits out of the cottage and walked down to Lixu, condescending to face Lu Bu's army.

LΓΌ Bu's army began to lay out a simple military defensive line, and it was difficult to see how many people there were for a while.

Seeing the officers and soldiers under the mountain, the arrogant pheasant did not inquire at the first time.

Instead, he said to the thieves who followed: "Shoot down with Lao Tzu, and if you can't shoot to death, you will be scared to death of these Qiu Ba!" ”

The bandits who followed the pheasant couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The bandits took out their bows and arrows and shot them downward.
