When Liu He returned to Fengjiayu, it was already the third watch. Tian Chou, Qu Meng and the others never dared to close their eyes, waiting for him to return safely in the tent.

Liu He greeted everyone and said, "Go back to sleep, you don't have to get up early tomorrow!" ”

Tian Chou asked, "When will the camp be pulled out tomorrow?" ”

"Rest in place tomorrow and wait for the news from the Fengxiang gang!"

Liu He waved his hand and fell asleep, looking really sleepy.

Tian Chou and Qu Meng glanced at each other, revealing a look of crying and laughing. In vain, they stayed in the camp and were worried, seeing how chic the eldest son was, and when he came back, he slept with his heart high, and his heart was relieved!

Since Liu He had an order, Qu Jiajun and Shen Xijun stayed in Fengjiayu with peace of mind, and on the second day, there was no other action except to watch a group of recruits being drilled by veterans.

This Fengjiayu was originally a traffic artery, but now because of the garrison of soldiers, the entrances and exits at both ends have been completely blocked, and the people nearby saw the soldiers holding dazzling knives and guns in their hands, so they quickly shut up, and no one dared to pass from here.

However, it was said that Liu He was taking people and horses here, hiding in Fengjiayu to bask in the warm autumn sun, roasting horse meat leisurely, but Zhu Biao, the second master of Fengxiang City, and Shao Tong, the third master, were clenching their back molars, urging their brothers to launch a fierce attack on Zhaojiabao and Jingjiabao.

Last night, Liu He suggested that Zhu Biao and Shao Tong concentrate their forces to attack the richest Zhao family first, but the second and third masters had a small calculation in their hearts, they were worried that when they led their troops to attack Zhaojia Fort, Liu He would take his men and horses to attack Jingjia Fort, and at the same time felt that the Zhao family and the Jing family were now struggling to survive, and they could divide their troops to attack at the same time, so they did not adopt Liu He's suggestion.

As a result, the scene that the sinister Liu Gongzi wanted to see the most happened - Zhu Biao led 800 people to attack Zhaojiabao, and Shao Dong led 700 people to attack Jingjiabao!

Why do you say that Liu He is "insidious"? Because at that time, he ostensibly suggested that Zhu Biao and Shao Tong join forces to attack Zhaojiabao, but in fact, he was reminding and hinting that the two mountain kings should divide their troops! Liu He had already calculated it, and after Zhu Biao and Shao Tong suffered big losses in Zhaojiabao and Jingjiabao respectively, they couldn't rely on their own heads, because they strongly suggested that they should join forces to attack one place first!

During the six days that Liu He lived in Qujiabao, he was thinking about how to attack a defensive fortification like Wubao when he had nothing to do. For this reason, he also specifically asked Qu Lin and Qu Yong, and also asked Tian Chou, Wang Yue and others to help him calculate together, to see how many troops would need to be invested to attack a large dock fort, and what the final casualty ratio of the attacking and defensive sides would be.

The final calculation made Liu He a little painful, and also made Liu He understand that Sun Tzu's words in the Art of War, "Ten rules to surround it, five to attack it, and multiple times to divide it" is not so simple as saying.

In the era of cold weapons, the defending side relies on strong fortifications, such as cities, passes, dock forts and camps, to resist enemy attacks that are several times their own, or even dozens of times their own!

Maybe others don't know Lu Dao, but Liu He, who is familiar with history, at least knows two classic defensive examples.

The first was the Wei general Hao Zhao in Chencang with 1,000 soldiers against the tens of thousands of Shu troops led by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu State, and held on for nearly a month, but he waited for Cao Zhen's reinforcements, forcing Kong Ming to retreat.

The second battle was the longest defended battle of Diaoyu Castle in the history of the World War! In this defensive war that lasted for 36 years, the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty relied on thousands of people to defend the Diaoyu City, which is known as the "place where God broke the whip", and blocked the Mongolian army of 100,000 alive, and also caused the Mongolian commander Meng Ge to suffer serious injuries and die outside the city!

After Liu He's calculations, if you want to break through Zhaojiawu Fort or Jingjiawu Fort from the front, you need at least five to seven times the number of troops. Because of this, Liu He found a way to lure the main forces of the Zhao family and the Jing family out of the fort and ambushed them halfway, greatly weakening the defense of the Zhao family and the Jing family at the minimum cost.

But even so, now the Zhao family and the Jing family each have three hundred soldiers left!

In other words, with the current defensive strength of Zhaojiabao, if you want to attack quickly, you need at least 1,500 people!

There are exactly 1,500 people from Fengxiang City, and if you don't divide the troops, it is just enough.

However, Liu He just said a word, but let Zhu Biao and Shao Tong, who had their own concerns, divide their troops into two ways, and finally caused these two groups to pay hundreds of casualties in the process of attacking Zhaojiawu Fort and Jingjiawu Fort, but in the end they could not break through Wubao!

The fierce battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and Zhu Biao and Shao Dong, whose eyes began to redden, felt infinite grievance and infinite unwillingness in their hearts at this time.

Zhu Biao's heart is aggrieved!

I led 800 people to attack Zhaojiawu Fort, I thought it would be an easy thing, but I didn't expect the Zhao family's resistance to be surprisingly tenacious, and the soldiers guarding the fort were not afraid of death, and they stubbornly withstood the siege of 800 people with 300 people! If the troops had not been divided this morning, the brothers would have rushed into Zhaojiawu Fort to make a fortune by this time.

I hate not listening to the angels! Now that I don't have the face to shout grievances to others, who will let me not listen to persuasion?

Shao Dong's heart is unwilling!

More than 200 brothers have been killed or wounded, and the Jing family's defense is about to be unable to hold on, but the brothers' offense is almost the last strength, and they can't attack it! If three hundred people can come at this time, no, as long as two hundred reinforcements can come, Shao Dong is absolutely confident that he will attack Jingjiabao immediately.

I don't know if the war on Second Brother Zhu's side is going smoothly? If he had already led people to attack Zhaojia Fort, it would be a shame this time!

After the battle lasted until the afternoon, Zhu Biao and Shao Tong finally had no choice but to withdraw their troops. Subsequently, the two leaders sent spies to inquire about the outcome of the battle, and when they learned that the attack from the other side did not work, they were finally relieved.

"It's fine! Shao Dong didn't bring anyone into Jing's house, otherwise where would I put my face? Zhu Biao said in his heart.

"Thankfully! The second master is also deflated, and I still have a chance! Shao Dong thought silently in his heart.

Sometimes, the human heart is so strange. When Zhu Biao and Shao Dong were in an unfavorable situation in the war, the first thing they thought of was not to sum up their experience and lessons, but to worry about whether the other party was as unlucky as themselves!

When it was dark, two mysterious guests came to Fengjiayu, namely Zhu Biao, the second master, and Shao Dong, the third master.

The purpose of the two of them coming to see Liu He was surprisingly the same, they both asked the angel to send troops to support tomorrow and attack Zhaojiabao and Jingjiabao together!

When the battle came to this, it was difficult for Zhu Biao and Shao Tong to put down their faces and ask the other party for support, and even if one party sent a request to the other party, it would not necessarily be useful.

Hundreds of brothers were killed and wounded on both sides, all of them seeing victory in sight, who was willing to let go of their own fruits and go to fulfill the other? Besides, what if the two sides join forces to attack one dock fort, and the angel takes his soldiers and horses to attack the other dock fort? Wouldn't this be equivalent to cheapening Liu He for nothing!

Therefore, out of the mentality that they could neither let their brothers take advantage of them, nor let outsiders take advantage of them, Zhu Biao and Shao Tong had no choice but to come to Liu He for help.

Of course, since they came to see Liu He, they were also mentally prepared to share the fruits of victory with Liu He!

Liu He seemed to have anticipated the arrival of the two of them, and after dinner, he gathered several important subordinates in his tent, just waiting for Zhu Biao and Shao Dong to come over in person.

Zhu Biao came accompanied and led by Shi A, he arrived first, and was politely arranged by Liu He to rest in the tent. It didn't take long for Ding Kuang to arrive with Shao Dong's hind feet.

Liu He saw that the people had arrived, so he spoke: "The envoy thinks that it is better to talk to each other in this way, so as not to misunderstand each other. I wonder why the two of you came? Could it be that your brothers have stormed the dock fort and have come to ask this envoy to come and bear witness? ”

The two of them immediately looked embarrassed, and told Liu He in a whisper that they had encountered some trouble when attacking the dock fort, and they had come to ask the angel to send troops to help.

Liu He's face sank suddenly, and he said with some displeasure: "Look! I have repeatedly reminded you that you must not divide your troops, but you just don't listen, and now you have made this situation, and you have missed the opportunity for a great deal in vain! You two know that if you miss today, the Zhao family and the Jing family will definitely ask the Danshui garrison for help, and now it is not a question of whether the original envoy will send troops or not, but a question of how to consider how to withdraw the troops! ”

When the two of them heard this, they were shocked, like ants on a hot pot. If it is really as Liu He said, the Danshui defenders came to rescue the Zhao family and the Jing family, not only did hundreds of brothers die in vain, but the key is that when they go back, they will not be flayed alive by the big boss?

Zhu Biao stomped his feet and shouted: "Lord Angel, you can't withdraw your troops!" After today's battle, there are less than 100 soldiers left in the Zhao family, as long as you send 300 soldiers to support, we can attack early tomorrow morning! ”

"Lord Angel, I only need you to support my two hundred troops, and I can take Jingjiawu Fort early tomorrow morning!" When Shao Tong said this, he sent Liu He to kneel.

Liu He saw that the two mountain kings had been bluffed by himself, so he said slowly: "However, there is still something to be done now, this ...... Belch...... That one...... Hmmm......"

The more Liu He spoke, the more vague he became, and the more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, which made Zhu Biao and Shao Tong so anxious that they scratched their hearts and livers, and they almost jumped up and grabbed Liu He's clothes.

Tian Chou sighed silently in his heart, looked at the two mountain kings in front of him who were about to be played and cried by Gongzi, pulled his face and said: "Ahem, Gongzi means that it is okay to support you, but you two groups of people have to obey Gongzi's command, including how to distribute the spoils after attacking the dock forts of the two families." ”

Zhu Biao was a little unhappy when he heard this, and said angrily: "Why do we have the most strength and the most dead people, but we have to listen to your domination when we reach the most!" ”

Liu He didn't speak, and turned his face to Xian Yuyin.

Xian Yuyin knew that Liu He was letting himself be a villain, so he had to say with a dark face: "The second master is not afraid of the wind and flashing his tongue when he says this!" As long as Zhaojiawu Fort and Jingjiawu Fort are not breached for a day, even if all the people you brought are dead, what's the point? We gave up the best opportunity to attack the Zhao family and the Jing family at night yesterday, just to give you a chance, but you yourself are not angry, who can blame this? ”

"Xian Yu Du Wei, you must not be rude to the second master, and you will not retreat!" Liu He spoke up to stop Xian Yuyin, and then said to Zhu Biao with a pleasant face: "Xian Yuduwei is a straight temper, and his speech may not be very good, so don't go to your heart." Since you feel wronged, this envoy will not be strong, tomorrow I will lead the army to Danshui County to set up ambushes on both sides of the road leading to the Zhao family, and block the military horses sent by Yuan Yin for you, I hope you will not let down the most difficult opportunity I have won for you! ”

Zhu Biao and Shao Tong glanced at each other, and saw helplessness in each other's eyes. If they were sure to attack the dock forts of the Zhao family and the Jing family tomorrow, why did they bother to come to ask for Liu He's support today?

"We are willing to obey the command of adults!" Zhu Biao and Shao Dong finally chose to compromise with Liu He, they were already completely stunned by Liu He's bluffing.

"Okay, since the two of you are willing to obey the envoy's arrangement, let's go to Zhaojiabao and Jingjiabao to drink tonight!"

Liu He got up and made a dashing gesture of waving his hand forward, leaving Zhu Biao and Shao Tong stunned in place.
