Chapter 425: Thirty Mile Shop
After being bitten to death by a poisonous snake, Xilingxing found a herb in the mountains, all things are born of each other, and this herb is the grass juice that drives away poisons.
Let the soldiers pick more of this grass, pound out the grass juice, and smear the whole body, and sure enough, the poisonous insects and poisonous snakes saw them and swam in all directions.
In this way, everyone was overjoyed.
Thus they hid down, and when the rebels of the Yuan family arrived, they did not fight them, but just let them come up to the mountain, let the poisonous snakes and poisonous insects greet them, and when they were alone, they would come out again and kill them.
There is no way, the enemy and the enemy get along too much, and it is not possible to fight hard, so we can only use guerrilla warfare to try the method to deal with the rebels.
In the next few days, the rebels of the Yuan family also became obedient and did not dare to go up the mountain easily, so they guarded at the bottom of the mountain.
Thirty miles of this piece is full of mountains and forests, a distance of thirty miles in a row, the resources in the mountains are extremely rich, the Xiling line generals are scattered, a thousand commanders lead a team of people, responsible for a mountain forest, there are many caves in the mountains, all kinds of favorable terrain, between each other, but also set up a military sentry code, a few long and a short, what does it mean......
When the enemy went up the hill too much, he immediately retreated through the cave. Retreat into another mountain forest, never fight hard.
Such tactics were very effective in the first few days, the Yuan rebel army of 100,000, and in the first three days, they rashly went up the mountain, and lost 10,000 or 20,000 people, while the Xiling army did not suffer much loss.
Not only that, Xiling Xing also led people to go around the mountains to collect hemostatic drugs and anti-wound drugs to treat the wounded soldiers, and restored a number of combat strength.
The Xiling army is faced with no food, the resources in the mountains are very rich in these thirty miles, and now it is autumn again, all kinds of wild fruits are ripe, but there is no worry about eating, there are many wild games in the mountains, pheasants, hares, wild roe deer, and even wild wolves and tigers can be called to eat, there are wild sweet potatoes and wild taro under the ground, and the Xiling army has dug up a lot of storage.
They all feel that this mountain is a treasure mountain, as long as the enemy army does not set fire to the forest.
It's just the same, in order to prevent the Yuan family rebels from also discovering the secret of understanding the poisonous weeds, they have finished picking the antidote weeds in advance, so as not to let the Yuan family rebels have a chance.
On the fourth day, the Yuanjia rebels no longer sent people to shout nonsense such as surrender or kill at the bottom of the mountain, ran out of patience, and began to set fire to the forest. In the past, I was reluctant to set fire to the forest because once a fire broke out, the mountain forest was too big, and it would take at least ten days and half a month to extinguish it.
The Xiling army suddenly felt bad!
Luckily, the cave was found in advance, and food was stocked in the cave.
This fire burned for ten days before a heavy rain extinguished the fire, but in this way, the entire thirty-mile forest had been burned to pieces, and the poisonous insects were burned to death, and those who were not burned to death also fled.
The wild fruits and wild meat stored by the current Xiling Army have also been eaten up in the cave, and there is no mountain forest cover, and the number is scattered separately, basically to the point of running out of ammunition and food.
Xiling Xing and Xiling Yingjie took the personal guards, and about 2,000 soldiers, and about 5,000 wounded, in a large cave on the top of one of the mountains, this cave has a small passage to another mountain, which can only be walked by one person, and if there is an evacuation, it is one by one.
At this time, Xiling Yingjie was holding a telescope, and he looked at the Yuan family rebels who came up densely under the mountain......
After the heavy rain, some of the large branches that have not been burned out are still smoking, a desolate and miserable, the autumn season is the most likely season to catch fire in the mountains, but it is a pity that such a fertile mountain forest.
