Chapter 65: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
"Is this river the source of the royal court?" Su Chen hit his horse and came to the upper reaches of the river, and when he saw this river that was not too wide, he was deflated. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Yes, this is the water source of the royal court, not only the royal court, but also along this river, flowing through the entire mountain range, and the large and small tribes along the way rely on this river to survive." Although Guan Yu didn't know what he was going to do, he still said honestly.
Su Chen's original idea was to pollute the water source, so that the people of the royal court fell into a crisis of water shortage, and even poisoned the upstream, but when he saw this river, he felt how taken for granted his thoughts, this river is not wide, but it is not narrow, to say less it is more than ten meters.
It is somewhat impossible to pollute such a river, but nature's self-purification ability is still very strong, so if it is really that easy, these Xianbei people will not thrive here.
Su Chen thought about it, but still said his thoughts, and asked: "Yun Chang, there is nothing we can do about the hundreds of strange beasts that defend the royal court, and on the premise of not knowing how the Xianbei people drive the strange beasts, if we want to deal with these beasts, we can only rely on outwitting." β
"How to outwit?" Guan Yu blurted out, and then suddenly realized: "Could it be that Xingyu, you want to use poison?" β
"Not bad!" Su Chen pointed to the river under his feet and explained: "I originally thought that I would use poison in the upper reaches of the river, but although the flow of this river is slow, the still water flows deeply, and it is impossible to pollute this river, so I wonder if we can directly poison those strange beasts." β
"This ......" Listening to his thoughts, Guan Yu asked: "Xingyu, have you ever thought about a problem, the reason why these alien beasts become alien beasts is that ordinary poisons can't work at all, and besides, it is not easy to poison hundreds of alien beasts, and even if we succeed, if we can't solve the beast king, not only will we waste the flesh and blood of hundreds of alien beasts, but we will also fall short in the end." β
"There is some truth in what Yun Chang said, so what countermeasures can you come up with?" Su Chen also knew that his idea was a little naΓ―ve, but brainstorming, he put forward an immature idea, but Guan Yu was inspired and said:
"Xingyu, we still have to work hard from the source, the best way is to get the Xianbei people's method of driving the alien beasts, since these alien beasts can be used by the Xianbei people, then they can also be used by us, if we master this method, then immediately attack and defend the alien position, we have an army of alien beasts in plain water."
Guan Yu's words made Su Chen's eyes light up, I have to say, this is indeed the best way, but let's not talk about whether they can blend into the camp, even if they do, this kind of secret method must be in the hands of extremely important people, whether they can get it or not is still a problem, once it is exposed, it will inevitably startle the snake, and then 1,500 soldiers will definitely not be able to hide, and they will be able to mobilize the whole body, this method must be foolproof.
But on the premise that there is no internal response, it is not easy to be foolproof, Su Chen shook his head and motioned for him to continue.
Of course, Guan Yu also knew that this ideal method was also the most difficult way, so he continued: "Secondly, we can attack the Beastmaster, once we get the Beastmaster, the hundreds of beasts and dragons have no leader, like frightened horses, rushing around, and it will not cause too many casualties to us, and maybe it can also cause panic among the Xianbei people, killing two birds with one stone, the only difficulty of this method is how to get the Beastmaster." β
After hearing this, Su Chen felt that this was worth a try, so he asked, "Yun Chang, do you think that if we are all in battle, can we kill the Beastmaster?" β
"No way!" Guan Yu said without thinking about it: "The strength of the beast king is too strong, unless there are three me, I am barely confident to deal with one, there are two big ones and four small ones at the moment, the most important thing is that this beast king has wings and can fly, no matter how many of us are, we are not opponents." β
Su Chen was also a little deflated when he heard this, and lamented: "I don't know where these Xianbei people found such monsters, and they can still use them, it's really unreasonable." Since the winged tiger is the king of beasts, he must also have some spirituality, so why should he give the Xianbei people a trick for the tiger. β
"Huh?" After Su Chen complained, he suddenly came to his senses, thought of a way, and immediately said, "Isn't this winged tiger able to fly?" How about we turn the tiger away from the mountain? β
"What's the matter?" Guan Yu was a little curious about this.
Su Chen slowly explained: "We can't deal with the two big beast kings, but the four small ones are no problem, let's steal the four small ones, and when the beast king finds out that his tiger cub is gone, he will inevitably go crazy and look everywhere, in this way, the beast king will leave the camp, and the rest of the beast groups have no leader, we will be supplemented by fire attacks, we will definitely be frightened, maybe we will also howl the camp, take the Xianbei camp, won't we be able to capture it?" β
"This....seems to work!" Guan Yu couldn't help but nodded, this method was feasible, but he also said with some concern: "The method is feasible, but who will catch a few tiger cubs and lure away the beast king?" And to lead away the two-headed beast king, you must have two soldiers, once you are chased by the beast king, the person who leads the way is more auspicious. β
"It's not that there is more luck than luck, but that there is no life." Su Chen didn't understand the danger here, the person who led away the Beastmaster had to keep running to buy time for the army, and in the end he was chased by the Beastmaster, and he was definitely dead.
And after the beast king chases the tiger cub, he comes back to his senses, and the army may also encounter a crisis, although this method is feasible, but it is also a chestnut in the fire, and if you are not careful, you will lose all the games.
But it's not lifeless, if you can completely break through the royal court camp before the beast king returns, and get the method of controlling the alien beast, there is still a glimmer of life.
The two looked at each other, Guan Yu himself was not afraid of death, but he couldn't let Su Chen fold here, he had a great mission on his shoulders.
"Do you really want to do that?" Seeing Su Chen's firm eyes, Guan Yu knew that the other party had made up his mind, but he still persuaded: "Xingyu, it's better for us to turn the gun and rush back to Jiuyuan, maybe the reinforcements over there have arrived, and they have already won the battle." β
"Do you think it's possible?" Su Chen didn't know that this was an adventure, since he left Jiuyuan, he had already tied his life to the belt of his trousers, rich but with immediate success, he must take the lead as a commander.
"Okay. But I'll leave the task of catching a few tiger cubs to me, and as for the one who leads the way......"
"I have my own arrangements for those who lead the way." Without waiting for the other party to finish, he interrupted Guan Yu's words.
The task of catching tiger cubs can only rely on Guan Yu to take the lead, as for the person who leads the way, he is not willing to sacrifice any general, as for Guan Yu, it is even more impossible, Guan Yu's life cannot be thrown on the road.
He thought about it and told the six generals his thoughts, and the six generals were silent after hearing this, after all, this is the task of nine deaths and one life, they are in their prime, who is willing to know that they will die, and they still rush to go.
In the face of everyone's silence, Su Chen didn't speak, although he understood, he was still a little disappointed.
At this time, Cao Xing suddenly said, "Lord, let me go." β
As soon as Cao Xuan spoke, Wei Xu immediately retorted: "Cao Er was stunned, I didn't even speak, eldest brother, why are you in a hurry, lord, let me go for this task." β
With the first one, there will be a second one soon, a third one, and then Hao Meng also rushed to go, Su Chen said that he was very relieved, and finally did not stagger these brothers.
However, he was not going to let the six strong generals go, he already had a consideration in his heart, so he said: "Don't rob it, the Xianbei camp is not so easy to break, if there is no you, we will break through the royal court, it will not be so easy." β
"What does the lord mean?"
"I mean to use anesthetic to stun the tiger cubs, with the faint tiger cubs to run, this task is not difficult, anyone can complete it, you select eight dead soldiers from the wolf riders, one group for every two people, divided into four groups, once successful, four groups with four tiger cubs to run towards the southeast, northwest and northwest, to buy time for the army."
"Yes!"
He had already thought that if he wanted to take away the tiger cub quietly, he could only rely on strong anesthetic, but fortunately, he had made this thing before and brought a lot of it with him, just in case.
In the next few days, Guan Yu and Su Chen investigated the whereabouts of the beast king from a distance, and there was only one way into the valley, which was already full of soldiers at this time, but the other end of the valley was a half-slope, from which the rope could be lowered.
The two-headed Beastmaster is not in the valley, maybe it is to exercise the four-headed tiger cubs, there are only four tiger cubs in the valley, and the Beastmaster will only come back once every few days.
Risking his life to find out the news finally had some effect, on this day, Su Chen took a pair of soldiers to personally guard the hillside, put down the four ropes, Guan Yu quietly came to the valley along the ropes, transported the closed qigong, and applied the strong anesthetic medicine to the beef prepared in advance.
The bloody beef really attracted four little beasts, the tiger cub was no more than the size of a foal, and could not fly, smelling the bloody smell, without the slightest suspicion, the four tiger cubs feasted on half of the beef.
Guan Yu watched silently from the side, he was far away, and he used the Turtle Breath Gong again, but he was not found, and after a while, one of the tiger cubs suddenly fell to the ground, Guan Yu was secretly happy, and soon, the other three tiger cubs also fainted.
After waiting for a while, Guan Yu slowly got up, tied it with a rope in turn, and shot a rocket at it, seeing the signal, Su Chen immediately ordered the soldiers: "Pull up!" β
Just as the rocket was fired, a drum suddenly sounded outside, and Su Chen didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one, so that the soldiers quickly pulled the four-headed tiger cubs up.
Descending the hill, the four teams prepared in advance each tied a tiger cub to the horse's back, and then one person and five horses ran in four different directions.
The sound of the drums was followed by a screeching sound, which sounded for a while, and seemed to have no effect, and immediately changed the course to something else.
Su Chen had been lying in ambush near the hillside, and after a while, he saw two giant tigers descending from the sky, roaring in all directions, and the roar was like thunder, and it was heard far away.
The roar continued for a while, and then the two winged tigers ran to their own places, leaped into the starry sky and disappeared.
Seeing that the time had come, Su Chen immediately ordered the archers to release the rockets.
The rocket shot into the Xianbei camp, which immediately caused a fire, and after the guards saw the fire, the strange beasts on guard saw the fire, and they were fierce, exposed and crazy, and they bit when they saw people, and they were even more excited after seeing blood, and the Xianbei camp suddenly became a mess.
