Chapter 4: The Dead (Part I)

After sending the messenger away, Qin Shubao sat on the handsome case and began to complain. "You people don't know the price of firewood and rice, you could have taken it when you saw it, but you had to fight. Hehe, the Wagang Army and the mountain rogues are mixed together, and the combat effectiveness may not be doubled. Our soldiers and horses in Qi County and Beihai together are stronger than others? Everyone was just to avenge the looting of their hometown, but now they have been killed from Beihai to Lu County, and they must have been sleepy and tired! Alas!."

Thinking about his sudden careful thoughts just now, Qin Shubao felt blushing. He suddenly felt very regretful, regretting that he had not mustered up the courage to take responsibility at that time. If it weren't for the fear that Li Xu, a general from the imperial court, would be dissatisfied, he would definitely agree to Wagangjun's request. The art of war is cloudy, and the poor are not chasing. It is not worth sacrificing the lives of the brothers for the sake of a small cripple.

The more than 10,000 county soldiers in Beihai County were all temporarily recruited by Qin Shubao and others, and most of them enlisted in the army just to mix up the two hundred catties of rice. There are also some young men who carry knives into battle in order to avenge their family members who were killed by the rogue. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of these more than 10,000 soldiers and horses is not stronger than that of the rogue. Qin Shubao likes to leave some leeway when he speaks, so he only says that everyone is tired and doesn't mention anything else. Beihai County Cheng Wu Qi didn't need to scruple so much, he arched his hand upward, and he said through Qin Shubao's words: "I'm afraid the hatred in everyone's hearts has long been not so strong. I know what Governor Qin said, but if we don't let the thieves go without a fight, if the court knows about it, I'm afraid everyone here won't be able to get out of it! โ€

Wu Qi was originally the county lieutenant of Beihai County, and the two thieves Guo Fangzhu and Qin Junhong swept Beihai with 100,000 rogues and connected four cities within half a month. The county guards and county commanders of Beihai County and the county commanders and county lieutenants of several large counties were all killed in battle, and no one in the imperial court was willing to take up a post in the war, so the position of the county was cheaper for him.

"Fighting on the battlefield, my Beihai disciples are definitely not the opponents of the Wagang Army. If Governor Qin doesn't mention this, I have to admit it! Looking around, Wu Qi continued. But if you don't come out of the village, it is estimated that everyone will consume a lot of energy. As for whether all the people on the mountain can starve to death, Wu doesn't know! โ€

"I'm afraid that the Wagang Army will not force itself to break out. That guy surnamed Xu is very insidious in using soldiers, and if he plays some tricks, everyone will be very troublesome! Qin Shubao shook his head again and again, vetoing Wu Qi's tactics of defending the camp. Because the origins of his subordinates are different, it is difficult for him to agree with the other party's views. Wu Qi's soldiers and horses had not undergone much training, and their weapons had been dug out of the loot pile, so he didn't care much about how many brothers he lost. These brothers under the command of Qin Shubao are all veterans of a hundred battles, and the essence of the entire Qi County soldiers. Such a veteran died one less than one, and then lost more than 200 in a battle like yesterday, let alone Qin Shubao, even Zhang Xutuo himself could not afford it.

"If you don't want to fight with the Wagang Army, we might as well get out of the way for him! Anyway, there is more than this way down the mountain, but this one is the most suitable for a large number of soldiers and horses! In contrast, after deciding to engage the enemy army, Asahiko's state of mind was the most peaceful. He is not like Luo Shixin, that guy's head starts to heat up at the mention of fighting, and he is now shaking his fists with excitement. He is not like Qin Shubao, who always weighs how many belongings he has in his hand. Now that he has decided to fight, he will go all out, this is all he thinks. If his side's performance was too weak, Xu Zi felt that not only would the elders of Qi County not be satisfied, but Xu Maogong in the deep mountains would also feel interested.

"You mean let them go and chase them down! However, the enemy general is very thoughtful, and he will definitely be on guard. Qin Shubao stood up and walked around Li Xu to ask. He likes Xuzi at this time, calm and confident, with almost no cowardice on his body.

"It must be the Wagang Army who is responsible for the break, Qi Guoyuan escaped from Shengtian, and may not be willing to come back to save him. Our army of more than 10,000 pressed up, just to avenge Xiao Zhang's revenge yesterday. Grandma's, those guys are hypocritical and righteous, and they sent us back the wounds, but the armor and weapons are all greedy. Luo Shixin stepped forward and suggested enthusiastically. Compared with armor and weapons, he cares more about his lieutenant Zhang Jiang, who was knocked off his horse by the leader of the Wagang Army, although he was lucky not to be trampled to death by the war horse, but he probably couldn't get out of bed without lying on his stomach for more than half a year. A good suit of armor and a war horse under his crotch were also picked up like chicken feathers by the Wagang army, and there were no more than 20 real meat to buy and couldn't get it back.

"If you want to kill people on the battlefield, no one will kill as much as you Luo Shixin." Qin Shubao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "How can the grievances on the battlefield be calculated clearly. Don't mess around, it's better to think of a proper way to be serious! โ€

"As long as the strength is enough, it is useless to conspire!" Luo Shixin replied stupidly. He is a person who believes in the supremacy of strength, and he has never believed in the tricks of soldiers. The so-called iron cone smashes eggs, if you are unfortunate enough to stand on the side of the egg, even if Zhuge Liang is reborn, it will be sprinkled all over the ground with egg yolks and eggs. If both sides are hammers, simply hit each other. The first side that can't hold it first lies down, and then the next side lies down and wins.

"If we get out of the way, eighty percent of the Wagang army will be left behind. When the time comes, the whole army will press forward, and they may not be able to stay! Li Xu nodded and agreed with Qin Shubao's analysis. Of all the people present, he was the only one who knew the temperament of the enemy commander best. But he couldn't tell the past friendship between them, so he could only follow everyone's intentions and pour out the tactics he thought of little by little.

Qin Shubao was reluctant to fight with the Wagang Army, and Xu Zi was very happy to see him think so. If you talk purely about force, the sum of several people on your side may not lose to Cheng Zhijie, Shan Xiongxin, Xie Yingdeng and Xu Maogong of the Wagang Army. Especially Qin Shubao, I am afraid that his real strength is even higher than Cheng Zhijie. But in terms of strategy, his own side may not be as clever as his opponent. Luo Shixin and Dugu Lin don't like trickery, Qin Shubao is cautious and heavy in his use of soldiers, but he is mainly based on regular soldiers. And Xu Maogong has never liked to compete with others head-on, and the messenger Xie Yingdeng who came today is probably also a guy who likes to trick up.

"You can't let them go like this!" Dugu Lin shrugged his shoulders and interjected.

"Chongmu, listen to Zhong Jian's words!" Qin Shubao commanded in a low voice. What Li Xu said even meant by him, and Qin Shubao also vaguely guessed the plan. Without a doubt, that should be a good idea.

"But if everyone doesn't press it, the Wagang Army will definitely think that we might intercept and kill Qi Guoyuan. If he sacrifices his life to protect him, we will still get nothing! Li Xu thought about it and continued to prepare for everyone. He wasn't sure that he would be able to defeat Xu Maogong, so he simply didn't plan to defeat Xu Maogong. The Wagang army did not commit any crimes near Qi County, and the county soldiers could not fight with them again.

"So, I thought, let's get out of the way and let the enemy out of the mountains. Then a group of soldiers and horses, led by Shixin, chased after him from behind, and whoever broke off would fight with him! โ€

"This is in line with my temper, Brother Zhongjian, I support you!" Luo Shixin heard Li Xu's first move and used himself, and immediately danced with joy.

"However, you can't take our soldiers from Qi County, but together with Brother Yulin, lead the 10,000 troops of Beihai County to chase and kill. You can't fall for the enemy, you can fight if you can, it doesn't matter if you win or lose! Li Xu looked at Luo Shixin and finished his words with a smile.

"What's the point!" As soon as Luo Shixin heard that he let him take more than 10,000 new soldiers to entangle with the Wagang army, he immediately wilted like frost hitting an eggplant. Wu Qi and Wu Yulin, who were standing beside him, drooped lower than him, and secretly counted in his heart that Li Xu was not righteous. "Oh, you are reluctant to work hard for the children of Qi County, my children of Beihai were selected for nothing." But he didn't dare to say this, Li Xu was the second-class uncle of the imperial court, and the general of Wuyalang, although his rank was lower than that of him, but the weight of his words was far heavier than that of him, the newly appointed county. Moreover, this time the troops were sent by Qi County to help Beihai County, so even if there were ten thousand unwilling in his heart, he had no reason to retreat.

"Lord Wu, don't worry, as long as you can entangle the Wagang Army for two hours, no matter what method you use, we will win this battle!" Qin Shubao saw some clues, stepped forward, patted Wu Qi's shoulder, and comforted with a smile. There is no need for Li Xu to explain more, he has fully understood the essence of this plan, and agrees with Xu Zi's arrangement in his heart.

The commander of the Wagang army is not stupid, he will not break up an elite army and mix with the group of frightened birds under the command of Qi Guoyuan to find death. In order to complete the task of rescuing Qi Guoyuan and others, as long as he leaves the range of Daishan, he will definitely personally lead the elite to break the queen, and maybe he will arrange some trap for the pursuers to jump. Luo Shixin led the Beihai soldiers to catch up, and the possibility of defeat was nine out of ten.

But this is a strategy of fighting the enemy under me and the enemy above him. Normally, a two-legged man can't outrun a four-legged horse anyway. While the Wagang army was entangled with the Beihai soldiers, the soldiers and horses of the Qi county quickly bypassed the battlefield and went to intercept and kill the Niushan group of thieves led by Qi Guoyuan. Those guys had already been crippled, and they were all supported on the mountain in one breath, and once they got out of danger, no one would be willing to fight again. To deal with this frightened bird, seven hundred cavalry is more than enough.

Of course, if Qi Guoyuan's soldiers and horses suddenly turned into an elite army that could travel hundreds of miles a day, this strategy would definitely fail. But if the Niushan group of thieves under the command of Qi Guoyuan had the potential of an elite division, they would not be chased all the way from Beihai to Lu County.

"Just do what Zhong Jian said, I will take off the armor and equipment of the armored cavalry and leave it to Shixin and Yulin, since we have invested in it, we will simply put the capital down at one time." Qin Shubao patted each other's hands and resolutely made a decision, "Let's check and calculate, implement the details well, and don't let people see the flaws." I will send a letter to the mountain in a moment, saying that I have agreed to the proposal of the Wagang army to let the blind way down the mountain on this side of Kailu County. But they have to guarantee that Qi Guoyuan and the others will not set foot in Qi County and Beihai for half a step in the future! โ€

Turning his head, he looked at Luo Shixin, who was full of reluctance, "If you have the ability to directly defeat the Wagang army, I won't stop you." But you can't lose a piece of equipment and iron armor, and the loss of Beihai County can't be too big! โ€

"Brother Shubao, aren't you bullying, you!" Roosin protested loudly.

"The bully is you, the unthinker. As a general, how can you only think about one person every day! Qin Shubao smiled and punched Luo Shixin in the shoulder, Luo Shixin took a few steps back, and squatted on the ground with his arms covered. My arm, oops, I got my arm beaten by you, and I can't lift it these days! He wailed loudly, without the slightest sympathy from the crowd, but only provoked a good-natured laugh.
