Chapter 140: Planning
The evening breeze hit, and Hongqing sat alone under the stone. The Mengshan people weren't worried that she would run away, because no one could do so under their noses, and this was just a weak woman. Hongqing glanced coldly at Shange in the distance, with resentment and anger in her eyes. She gently rolled up her sleeves and stared at the disgusting tattoo on her arm, a dragon hovering over a mist-shrouded mountain. This is the family crest of the Mengshan clan!
The disc-like sunset gradually sets, and the ruddy afterglow casts a blush on the yellow earth. At night, the temperature of the wind drops sharply, mixed with yellow sand, and the face is cold and painful. Thirty or so sturdy men sat on the edge of the big rock, in groups of about ten, eating all kinds of dry food and water, recovering from the fatigue of a day's journey.
Maybe it's tiredness, maybe it's something else on your mind, a group of young men get together, but they are silent, and the silence of the night makes them seem extraordinarily calm. Shange sat in the middle of the crowd, occasionally looking at Hongqing in his spare time, but saw that her expression was unusually indifferent. Hongqing found that Shange was looking at her, so she glared at him fiercely, and then sneered again, don't look away. Shange wondered in his heart, this woman was strange.
In the distance, on the sand dunes, three camels galloped fast. When they got closer, the four men jumped off their camels and crouched on the sand dunes, observing Sango and the others.
"It's really different from ordinary robbers, they are divided and stand, and they take care of each other in a corner, it seems that it is not easy to break through!"
"But on the other hand, if the other two teams are contained, the resistance to saving Hongqing will become smaller. Long Yan said with a smile.
"That being said, what should be done in practice?" Boss Luo had a difficult face, and now he was facing off, but the desert heroes who had experienced the battlefield were not comparable to ordinary bandits.
The four of them fell into thought, and Ye Feng said, "Judging by their appearance, they are planning to spend the night here, let's withdraw first." lest they find out when the time comes, and wait until the countermeasures are discussed. Lei Ao and the others nodded in agreement and left quickly.
"According to observations, the enemy is thirty-one in number. Divided into three batches, each group of about ten people, one of the ten people is the stronger person to preside. Hongqing was guarded by the group in the middle. The strongest of these is Sange. Ye Fenghua showed his intention and briefly analyzed, "Assuming that in addition to the mountain grid, we can use one against five, that is to deal with twenty people, and ten people plus the mountain grid are empty." So a head-on breakout won't work. Ye Feng drew a big cross on the ground.
Lei Ao said: "Well, that can only be used as a sneak attack? Do you have any good ideas?"
Ye Feng continued, "First of all, before planning a battle, we must understand that we have two advantages! Lei Ao, do you know what it is?"
Lei Ao didn't expect Ye Feng to ask, but after all, he was an old Jianghu, thought for a while, and said, "The other party doesn't know how many of us are, and we still have the ability." Also, the timing of the attack is decided by us, that is, we have the initiative. ”
Ye Feng nodded and said, "That's right! The Mengshan clan has been fighting for many years, and their ability is not a secret, plus today's observation, except for Shange, most of them are hardline schools based on self-cultivation. On the contrary, the other party does not know our details, and unknown situations can cause invisible pressure, which can work wonders if used properly. This is the first advantage. ”
"Plus, the right timing can do more with less. I suggest that we rest for now and wait for the third watch in the middle of the night to carry out a surprise attack. Because even if someone is on guard, in the middle of the night when they are sleepy, their reaction and ability will be reduced to the lowest point. This is our second advantage. ”
"After talking for so long, what should I do?" asked Long Yan.
Ye Feng spread his hands and said helplessly: "I'm not a military strategist, so I want to get so much?" I just told the situation and everyone discussed it. ”
"So after talking for a long time, the result is all nonsense?" Long Yan couldn't help but glance at Ye Feng and said with a smile.
"If I had to say, I have a plan, and you don't think it's going to work. Ye Feng clasped his arms in his hands, thought for a long time, and said uncertainly. Everyone looked at him, Ye Feng said and drew on the sand, and said what he thought in his heart, "That's how it was first...... And then like this...... In this way, that's probably it, are you going to have to do it?"
Long Yan said: "If that's the case, it's better to be here...... How about that?" said Lei Ao, "If it can be done, then ...... So what?"
The bright moon peeked out of its head, pouring endless light. The four people on the sand talked a lot, and they discussed happily, and finally drew up a plan that everyone was satisfied with before they stopped. Then the four of them took a nap and waited for the late night......
At night, the cold evening breeze whirled by. The desolate night is a little deserted, but for these men who are used to loneliness, they are the best companions. Most people have fallen asleep, and the tense nerves need to be relaxed temporarily. Of course, there will be two night watchmen in each group to prevent the beasts from attacking or the enemy.
The vigil is boring, a long night, but you have to be vigilant all the time, and it is indeed hard. Sometimes I think it's more interesting to have something happening. The man named Kuru thought secretly, and was immediately amused by his own boring thoughts.
"Hey, Kuru!" exclaimed another night watchman named Tiger Bone, "what do you see that?" Kuru took advantage of the night, and not far away, a fist-sized thing jumped up and down, and it looked like a living thing.
Kuru shook his head and said, "Nothing. Little mice or something. Tiger Bone disagreed, "No, I've never seen anything like this in all my years of living in the desert." No, I'll take a look. Then he got up and walked over to the little thing. Kuru knew that the tiger bone curiosity was together, so he couldn't stop anything, and it wasn't a big deal anyway, so he let him go.
Seeing the figure of the tiger bone drifting away, Kuru also closed his eyes steadily.
"Ah......h Kuru was shocked, it was the sound of the tiger bone that was screaming just now.
"What's going on?" Sango was calm and untouched by the outside world.
Kuru hurriedly said: "There was an ancient monster over there just now, Tiger Bone went to check." Then he screamed, wondering if he was in danger. Sangra groaned and beckoned five people to investigate. Immediately, five strong men were ordered to leave, and the five of them moved neatly and quickly, and they were all good hands. But when they crossed the sand dunes, they saw no man.
Then, another scream pierced the night sky. In the silence of the night, it was particularly harsh. Everyone knows that tonight, there will be a big fight!
