Chapter 466: Cao Chongyue's Plan
Although it is very disdainful of these people to behave like girls, but think about these guys who have been accustomed to the luxurious life of pampering, where have they suffered such torture, it is already very good to be able to walk and escape, these guys will still be of some use to themselves in the future, at least let them go back and promote their glorious image, so Qin Dui tried his best to suppress the disgust in his heart, pretended to be kind and pleasant, and comforted: "Three for you, please come late, let you suffer, Please rest assured, Qin will never let the barbaric acts of this group of cult traitors continue, and he must find justice for you! ”
The fierce and sonorous rhetoric made the three people kneeling at Qin Dui's feet suddenly have infinite hope, and their reverence for Qin Dui's gratitude was even more like a mountain, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Qin Duan didn't talk nonsense with them much, he was more concerned about the current situation of the Holy Sect Army stationed in the Black Stone Set, especially their number configuration and deployment. Of course, the three businessmen actively cooperated, and told what they had seen and heard, and indeed provided a lot of valuable information for Qin Du's side.
It turned out that one of these three people was originally the landlord in the south of this Lulong, and fled into the Black Stone Set when he noticed the deterioration of the situation, but he didn't expect to be caught by the Holy Sect Army who conquered the Black Stone Set, and the other two were the mine owners of the Black Stone Set, and the three of them were forced to hand over all the money, gold and silver after being captured by the Holy Sect Army, and the ordinary performance was not too eye-catching, so the Holy Sect Army let the three of them return to their respective houses in the Black Stone Set to wait for processing, and they didn't want to take such a big risk to escape.
But they found that several of the larger mine owners were still not allowed to leave the Taiping Army prison after all their property was confiscated, only to find that the situation was not quite right, and after the three of them discussed, they simply carried some easy-to-keep treasures and fled at night, but they were still blocked by the rebels when they escaped from the Black Stone Collection, fortunately several of them were slave miners who had only joined the Holy Cult Army this time, and the two mine owners usually treated them well, and after offering all the treasures, there were acquaintances to say something. The small leader of the Taiping army who led the team finally let them go, and they were able to escape.
After repeated interrogations, Qin Duan was finally convinced that the enemy's defense situation in the Black Stone Set had been mastered by his own side, and he was waiting for the others to leave. Qin Duan immediately made a decision, and immediately asked Cao Chongyue to arrange for scouts to be scattered as quickly as possible, to understand the situation around the Black Stone Set, and to begin to discuss the raid plan.
"My lord, I don't think we can wait any longer for the Scout to return. The enemy is still in a state of carnival, and most of the patrol and alert troops sent out are slave soldiers who joined two days ago, and they have no experience at all, so we can take this opportunity to take him by surprise and destroy them in one fell swoop. If there is a slight delay for the enemy to discover our whereabouts, or if other circumstances arise, it will be difficult to achieve all the success in one battle. ”
Cao Chongyue suggested anxiously. The Black Stone Set was nearly forty miles away from his camping area, and once it was detected by the enemy scouts, all the plans would be in vain, and the Taiping Army would have added 10,000 strong miners to the living force, and the Black Stone Set would bring unnecessary losses to its own side.
Qin Duan also nodded, in fact, while arranging for the scouts to be dispatched, he was also thinking about the issue of fighters, delaying the fighters. That's a pity, and now that he heard Cao Chongyue's words, it strengthened his confidence to attack quickly.
"Well, that's a good idea. We can't afford to wait any longer. ”
In front of his subordinates, Qin Duan never hesitated to praise, he returned his gaze to the small-scale map, and said, "Tell me about your plan." ”
This is a professional map of the southern region of Lulong Province, and it can be seen from the drawing time of this map that it is not too long, and it is obvious that the intelligence department began to complete the work after Qin Du's intention to develop eastward.
"Most of the area around Blackstone is full of mines. Now that all the mines have been suspended and are in a state of rest, the intelligence also reflects that a considerable number of miners have joined the Taiping Sect's Holy Sect Army, and it is estimated that there is no difficulty in this vicinity. ”
"Although Blackstone is quite prosperous, it is a market town after all, with almost no fortifications and facilities, and there is no basis for resistance to the army's attack, and now the enemy is in a state of paralysis, according to intelligence, their patrol and vigilance forces are extremely weak and lax, and inexperienced, and now their alert range is only five miles around Blackstone, my idea is that we will immediately take action to make a detour of the troops into several parts to reach the predetermined location, take special means to solve the enemy's alert force, and then divide the large forces into the north and westAt the same time, the three sides suddenly launched a surprise attack, disrupting the enemy's organization and subordinates in one fell swoop, and striving to completely solve this Taiping army. ”
Cao Chongyue was a little excited when he saw that the coach accepted his proposal, his eyes were burning on the military map on the case, his thick fingers kept comparing on the map, but the words on his mouth were orderly.
"Well, go ahead."
Qin Duan didn't say much, he knew that the plan of this subordinate in front of him was by no means more than this, it was a good way to encircle three and put one, and it was also a good way to prevent the enemy from jumping over the wall and resisting desperately, after all, his own strength was limited, and it was not clear how long the future war would last, so he could save it and try to preserve his strength.
"The enemy has more than 20,000 people, and has absorbed more than 10,000 armed miners, we do not have an advantage in numbers, what we can use is the means of surprise attack and the enemy's troops lack the necessary regular military qualities, so I advocate leaving an opening for the disrupted enemy army to escape from the east, and then we ambush a force in the east to fight an ambush, which will definitely be able to completely solve this enemy, even if it cannot be completely annihilated, but at least it can make them completely lose their combat effectiveness for a considerable period of time." Cao Chongyue is confident in his plan.
At this time, Qin Duan can really put his mind at ease with the general under his command, as fast as the wind and as steady as a mountain, these two military points have been fully demonstrated in him, and he doesn't need to worry about anything at all, he can rest and wait for the battle to end.
Clapping his hands and stretching his waist, Qin Duan let out a long sigh of relief and said: "I'm going to rest, everything will be done according to your opinion and deployment, I fully agree, notify me when the battle is over, and if you need to use my guards, you can call it directly." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qin Duan wrapped his robe tightly, turned around and went out, leaving Cao Chongyue, who had not fully reacted, half-open his mouth and not coming back to his senses for a long time. (To be continued.) )
