"What's there to talk about?" Wang Pu's voice fell, and Scarface said with a big grin, "As long as the firearms battalion has enough ammunition, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to defeat the tens of thousands of Jiannu outside the city?" It's not me who brags about Scarface, as long as one of my thousand-man team can level them. ”

"Yes." Tang Sheng also echoed loudly, "The 200,000 Jiannu stormed Datong and defeated us, and we also killed more than 40,000 people, and the 20,000 or 30,000 Jiannu outside the city are considered a fart?" It's not enough for the brethren to stuff their teeth. ”

Monk Zhang was not to be outdone, and shouted loudly: "There is no need for a thousand-man team at all, believe it or not, general, as long as five hundred-man troops can take the four Jiannu camps outside the city one by one." ”

Only Zhao Xin didn't speak, but looking at the relaxed expression on his face, he obviously didn't take the two or thirty thousand Jiannu outside the city in his eyes.

Wang Pu's brows furrowed in an instant.

It seems that after three battles and three victories and a hearty victory, the main generals under his command are already a little fluttering, it is no wonder that more than 40,000 Jiannu were destroyed in a fierce battle, and it is still a complete victory without any suspense.

But Wang Pu wouldn't think so.

Because Wang Pu knew that including the surprise attack on Liaodong, several victories against Jiannu could be said to be a clever victory, not a strong victory!

Fighting Shengjing was completely a sneak attack, Jiannu was caught off guard, and the defenders of the city were all old, weak, sick and disabled, so there was nothing to brag about.

The battle in the east of Shengjing City was a tough battle, and Wang Pu did defeat Zhu Xili's 2,000 Mongolian cavalry head-on with 600 primitive arquebuses, but it was not a serious Jiannu iron cavalry after all, but only a Mongolian cavalry.

And that battle won very lucky, firstly, the division of troops between Bilon and Tazhan, each time the cavalry put into the attack was only a thousand horses, and secondly, the Mongols were too arrogant, they did not put Wang Pu's hundreds of family members in their eyes at all, as a result, several rows of guns came over, and dozens of horsemen died and more than 300 horsemen were injured under the overwhelming scatter, and the remaining Mongolian cavalry was frightened and frightened, so they turned around and ran.

If Kupilon and Tazhan did not divide their troops and launched an attack from the front with 2,000 Mongol cavalry, with Wang Pu's 600 arquebuses, not to mention a six-stage attack, even if it was a sixty-stage attack, they could only end up in the annihilation of the entire army.

Then there are the three wars of Datong.

The first battle was a field battle out of the city, but at that time, Azig's 8,000 cavalry had been trapped in the semi-encirclement of more than 50,000 thieves, and Wang Pu's firearms battalion was able to intercept the back road of Jiannu, and was able to kill the elite of Jiannu of the eight Niulu! If Azig's 8,000 cavalry had not been entangled by more than 50,000 thieves, Wang Pu's firearms battalion would never have been able to bargain at all, and the whole army would have been wiped out if it didn't make trouble.

The second and third battles were all battles to defend the city, Wang Pu's firearms battalion occupied a favorable terrain, and thwarted the attack of Jiannu twice with the intensive shooting of muskets and the terrifying lethality of the dragon cannon, especially in the second battle of defending the city, which killed more than 10,000 Jiannu and wounded more than 30,000.

These wounded slaves eventually fell into the hands of the defenders and were slaughtered.

Wang Pu carefully recalled several encounters with Jiannu, and found that he either won by luck because of Jiannu's carelessness, or because he won by luck because he fought for favorable conditions or occupied favorable terrain, and none of the battles were really defeated by Jiannu in a head-to-head confrontation.

Although it is not necessary to force the enemy to defeat the enemy head-on, these facts also illustrate a truth: if Jiannu no longer underestimated the enemy, and Wang Pu's firearms battalion lost its favorable conditions and terrain advantage, they might not be able to defeat Jiannu, who had superior forces.

Wang Pu would think like this, but the thousands of presidents under him would not think like this.

Wang Pu felt that if he wanted to explain this truth to his subordinates, who were illiterate in a few big words, it was simply to play the piano to the cow, so he asked them to go back first.

Waiting for Scarface and them to leave, Zhen Youcai said in a low voice: "General, to say something discouraged, Scarface is a little too light on the enemy, although our army defeated Jiannu three times, but the lowly position thinks that it is a miracle, and a miracle will not happen forever, otherwise it can't be called a miracle." ”

Wang Pudao: "Don't talk about them, tell me your opinion, how should this battle be fought next?" ”

Zhen Youcai didn't answer and asked: "Does the general just want to defeat Jiannu, or does he want to kill Jiannu?" ”

Wang Pu's face was full of hideousness, and he said in a low voice: "If it's possible, of course, it's to be killed." ”

Zhen Youcai said: "Then we must first find a way to get rid of Jiannu's war horse, once Jiannu loses its war horse, it will be like a tiger going to its minions, not to mention the sharp reduction in attack power, and then you can't escape even if you want to." ”

Wang Pu smiled and said, "Youcai, we want to go together again." ”

Lei Gongshan camp, Li Yan Xingyuan.

The red lady walked in with a gust of fragrant wind and said to Li Yan: "Xianggong, Jiannu is really grazing horses on the bank of the Yuhe River. ”

"Okay." Li Yan said happily, "Calculate the time, Jiannu's hay should also run out." ”

"What's good?" The red lady said coquettishly, "The crops and seedlings on the banks of the Yuhe River are about to be eaten up by Jiannu's horses, what will the people eat at that time?" ”

Li Yan smiled and said, "Lady, do you want to save the green seedlings of the people of Datong from Jiannu?" ”

The red lady said: "Of course I want to." ”

Li Yan said: "Then we will snatch all the horses of Jiannu." ”

"Huh?" The red lady's eyes widened, and she said in a delicious voice, "Xianggong, you want to rob Jiannu's horses?" ”

"Why don't you grab it?" Li Yan smiled, "The idea of building slave horses for her husband has been a long time. ”

The red lady said: "But Jiannu's defense is very tight, the horse herding place is full of their scouts and rangers within a hundred miles, and the slave family also took a lot of effort to sneak to the bank of the Yuhe River, and there are several times in the middle of almost let the scouts of Jiannu be discovered, Xianggong If you mobilize the army to rob, you will definitely not be able to hide the eyes and ears of Jiannu, and when the army arrives, the Jiannu of the horse herding has already driven the horses back to the camp." ”

"Mountain people have their own tricks." Li Yan smiled and said, "Lady, how many horses are grazing on the banks of the Yuhe River?" ”

The red lady said: "There may be more than 10,000." ”

"More than ten thousand?" Li Yan nodded and muttered, "Wang Pu said that there were about 30,000 Jiannu who stayed outside Datong City, and they set up four large camps outside the four gates, 5,000 people were stationed outside the east gate and west gate, and 10,000 people were stationed outside the south gate and north gate...... Well, it seems that the people grazing on the banks of the Yuhe River should be the Jiannu of the North Gate and the East Gate camp. ”

The red lady blinked her beautiful eyes, obviously unable to keep up with Li Yan's thinking.

Li Yan pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Huzi." ”

"Big brother, Brother Tiger has gone to school."

A tall, bear-backed young man came in, this young man's name was Li Jun, Li Yan's cousin, ranked seventh in the clan, since Li Hu was appointed by Li Yan as the leading general of the Yan'an battalion, Li Jun succeeded Li Hu as Li Yan's personal guard captain.

"Oh, I almost forgot that Huzi is now a general." Li Yan smiled self-deprecatingly and said to Li Jun, "Old Seven, you find Jing Maocheng right away." ”

Datong, Gunpowder Bureau.

Zhen Youcai said to Wang Pu: "But general, it's not easy to get rid of Jiannu's war horse." ”

Wang Pu said: "The sentry on the watchtower reported that Jiannu drove a large number of war horses out of the camp every day, and left the camp at dawn until dark. ”

Zhen Youcai said: "This is an opportunity, if there is this kind of forage, it would be good if the war horse could eat it and have diarrhea." ”

"Hey, hey." Wang Pu chuckled and said, "Youcai, you don't know yet, Daddy Li is the descendant of Li Shizhen, the great Ming divine doctor." ”

"What?" Zhen Youcai asked in surprise, "Daddy Li is the descendant of the famous doctor Li Shizhen?" ”

"Yes." Wang Pu said, "The Compendium of Materia Medica handed down by the Li family is in the hands of Father Li. ”

Zhen Youcai's heart moved when he heard this, and said, "So...... Is there really such forage? ”

"Yes." Wang Pu nodded and said, "Daddy Li knows that there is such a kind of forage, and this kind of forage is everywhere in our Datong, this kind of forage war horse occasionally eats a little is not a big problem, but if you eat too much, you will run out of diarrhea, your limbs will be weak, and as soon as you ride it, you will immediately lie on the ground!" ”

"Okay." Zhen Youcai said, "This is really good. ”

Wang Pu said: "I have asked people to prepare secretly in Datong Zuowei, first grind the forage that Daddy Li said into powder, and then sprinkle it on the hay for the war horses to eat, it is estimated that it will be ready in these two days, and then send heavy troops to escort to Datong, the purpose of Jiannu to encircle Datong is to cut off our supply of grain and grass, and when the time comes, we will definitely send troops to intercept it, I expect that the border army of Datong Zuowei is not the opponent of Jiannu, and this batch of hay will eventually fall into the hands of Jiannu. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful." Zhen Youcai clapped his hands and shouted, "This trick is simply seamless, and it is difficult for Jiannu not to be fooled." “

Wang Pu said again: "In order to do enough tricks, I will let Scarface go out of the city with firearms to meet at that time, these guys are too carried away, just take this opportunity to give them some hardship, let them know that Jiannu is not made of tofu, and the reason why Jiannu can be defeated in the first few times is a prerequisite." ”

"Okay." Zhen Youcai couldn't help but exclaim, "The general is far-sighted and admires his humble duties." ”

Wang Pu smiled and said, "Okay, now that the business is over, let's talk about some private matters while there is still some time." ”

"Private?" Zhen Youcai was stunned and said, "What private matter?" ”

"What else can I do?" Wang Pu smiled, "Your family business." ”

"Ahem, this ......" Zhen Youcai showed embarrassment, scratched his head and said, "Now that Jiannu has not retired, it seems that the humble position is not suitable for marrying?" ”

"I'll give you a letter first." Wang Pu said, "I give you this kiss is my sister-in-law's personal ring, Fang's name is Xianglian, I have seen people, the figure and appearance are one in a hundred, and the young lady is not much better, the most important thing is that Xiao Nizi is gentle and lovely, will wait for people, I can tell you, just this little Nizi, Lu Liu and Xiao Qi Ke have all remembered it, and they have talked to me several times." ”

"Hey, hey...... Zhen Youcai's small eyes have narrowed into two slits, and he rubbed his hands together and said, "Hey, hey, it's really bothering you, General." ”

Lei Gongshan, Li Yan Xingyuan.

Jing Maocheng followed Li Jun and waved his fist at Li Yan: "See Dashuai." ”

"Senior Brother Jing, sit down." Li Yan waved his hand and said enthusiastically, "There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite." ”

"Yes."

Jing Maocheng thanked him and sat down.

Li Yan said: "Senior Brother Jing, just now Ben Shuai got the news that Jiannu is grazing on the banks of the Yuhe River every day!" ”

Jing Maocheng didn't know what Li Yan meant when he said this, so he had to hum lightly in response.

Li Yan smiled slightly, and then said, "Senior Brother Jing, do you remember what Ben Shuai said to you and General Li Xuan on the school field?" ”

"Of course I do." Jing Mao said without thinking, "The marshal said that it won't be long before we have thousands of war horses...... Hey, big handsome, do you mean ......?"

"That's right." Li Yan nodded and said, "Ben Shuai is referring to Jiannu's war horses, and these war horses will belong to our rebel army sooner or later." ”

"But ......," Jing Maocheng frowned, "what can I do to snatch Jiannu's war horse?" ”

Li Yan said: "It's very simple, only eight words: arrange in advance, wait for the opportunity to snatch!" ”

"Arrange in advance, waiting for the opportunity to snatch?" Jing Maocheng pondered for a moment and finally got nothing, shook his head and said, "The last general doesn't quite understand. ”
