Chapter 67: Detecting the Enemy 2

After listening to Gu Du's narration, Wu Renxiong said with a complicated expression: "This kind of thing is really unheard of, brother, the court values you so much, your future is limitless!" ”

Gu Du smiled and said, "Enough rest, let's go." ”

Gu Du didn't care about the future, his original intention to participate in the selection of the children's waiter was nothing more than a humble desire to eat for more than ten days.

Thanks to the mercy of the heavens, let him survive, as Chu Qin said, embarking on this road is nine deaths and one life, and there is no advance or retreat.

Six years of tempering has confirmed Chu Qin's words, Gu Duxian now only hopes to be able to marry Jin Lan as soon as possible and join hands with Baitou, as for the future, whether it is a white robe or a black robe, they are all for the country, bloody and bloody to kill the enemy, he didn't think so much.

When the two of them reached the vicinity of the enemy camp, they looked for a high slope, stood on horseback and watched, and saw hundreds of people digging in the earth.

Gu Du asked, "Big brother, what are they doing here?" ”

Wu Renxiong frowned and looked at it for a while before replying, "It seems to be digging a trench." ”

"Trenches?" Gu Du looked at it carefully, the people digging the soil were lined up, and they couldn't see the head or tail, if it was a trench, how long would it be? Besides, what's the use of digging trenches?

Gu Du asked, "Do they think that we will come out to beat them?" ”

Wu Renxiong couldn't answer, he couldn't understand such an unreasonable thing, besides, the enemy army was really digging trenches, not rivers? The trenches have been dug so long, and the head and tail are gone.

Gu Du asked again: "Is there water on the grassland?" ”

Wu Renxiong replied: "Yes, there are rivers and lakes, and they are not deserts, how can there be no water." ”

Gu Du said: "If they dig an artificial river, it will block the cavalry's attack. ”

Wu Renxiong suddenly woke up to the fact that Zeguo was not here to fight! I'm here to dig the Boundary River!

As Gu Du said, once there is the Boundary River, it will not only block the cavalry from running, but also hinder the march of the army, while Zeguo can set up a camp on the bank of the Boundary River, and even build a city!

Gu Du said: "It's freezing this day, they dig really fast, they are already half a person deep." ”

Wu Renxiong said with a heavy face: "Let's go back first." ”

After saying that, he sat back in the saddle, turned the horse's head, suddenly remembered again, and asked, "How many spirit masters do they have?" ”

Gu Du replied: "It won't be less, I can feel a chill in my heart here, just like I have been assassinated several times." Besides, since they are here to dig the river, this is a hundred-year plan, and they will definitely do their best. ”

Wu Renxiong nodded, and the two returned.

Back at Zhenbei Pass, Wu Renxiong did not go back to the General's Mansion, but followed Gu Du back to Gu Du's residence, saying that he didn't like to talk to Guan Shanyue, so they discussed it first.

After eating first, and then telling the enemy about digging the soil, Rexia said, "I'm afraid it's a trick to lure the enemy, right?" It's freezing right now, and if you really want to dig the boundary river, you should at least wait until the beginning of spring. ”

Wu Renxiong nodded, he thought so too, how could there be a big winter? It must have been the enemy who tempted him to give up the advantage of defending the city and lead his troops into battle.

Jin Lan said: "Not necessarily, maybe it's because they all think like this that they will fake the real show." The idea of digging the boundary river has actually been a long time, the spirit country has three natural dangers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the vast grassland outside the pass, there is no half point to rely on, only by digging a boundary river, can the spirit country iron horse rush attack. ”

Jin Lan bit her lip and continued, "When we came back then, our first task was to survey the terrain outside the pass, and the second was to destroy the soul army of the Spirit Kingdom. ”

Gu Du looked at her, and Jin Lan said: "I didn't say anything about digging the boundary river, because such a big project is definitely not something that can be done in a moment, at that time, it was just this kind of plan, but now, they have 50,000 people and set up camp a hundred miles away, which is the most suitable place." ”

"It is 100 miles away from the pass, and it will take half a day for the iron cavalry to attack, and there is enough time to deploy defense, and then build a fortress thirty miles north of the boundary river, and then build a fortress with troops and grain, grazing and farming, attacking and retreating, and defending it, and it can also be located according to the river, and the soldiers of the Lingguo can be crossed in the middle of the crossing."

Wu Renxiong said: "Then I will lead the troops to attack, since they are here to dig the boundary river, there must be many laborers and few soldiers, I will lead five thousand iron horsemen, and they can be wiped out!" ”

Jin Lan shook his head and said: "The general is too underestimated Emperor Ze, if he really digs the boundary river, he will pour the strength of the whole country, these 50,000 people are the vanguard, the armor will not be less than 40,000, and the spirit master will not be less than 10, and after that, there will be 100,000 or even a million people coming one after another to build fortresses and graze and cultivate." ”

Wu Renxiong's eyes widened in astonishment, and Jin Lan said: "In the extreme north, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and the grains are difficult to grow, Emperor Ze has long wanted to return to the grassland, if there was a boundary river back then, Emperor Ze would not be easily driven into the extreme north." ”

Wu Renxiong frowned, and Jin Lan said, "If you want to repel the enemy army, you can only use troops on a large scale and drive them all the way back to the ice field. ”

Gu Du said: "The disaster year has just passed, the treasury is empty, the first emperor died, everything is in one place, I am afraid it is difficult to use troops on a large scale, this is a good opportunity given by God to Zeguo, so they started construction at this time, and in the coming spring, even if the water has not been diverted, most of the trenches on the front should be dug up, and since it is the strength of the country, it is naturally not afraid of the surprise attack of the defenders in Guanzhong, and the people who come in then can graze and cultivate with peace of mind." ”

Wu Renxiong stood up and said, "I'll go back immediately to write a note, and I'll rush back to the imperial city for six hundred miles." ”

Li Xia got up and asked, "General, don't you discuss with Master Guan?" ”

"Talk to him about a bird!" Takehito strode away.

Gu Du was silent, and Lixia asked him, "Senior brother, what are you thinking?" ”

Gu Du looked at Chu Shuting, who was blowing the windmill, and replied, "I'm thinking, there will be a fierce battle within ten years, and Yaya should be allowed to experience battlefield killing as soon as possible." ”

"Huh?" Chu Shuting turned her face to look at Gu Du, smiling.

Gu Du smiled and stretched out his arms, Chu Shuting immediately ran over, Gu Du hugged her to his lap, looked at her and said, "I mean, I want you to take the beast to kill the enemy." ”

Chu Shuting's smile froze, dissipated in an instant, and asked, "Why do you want to kill someone?" ”

Gu Du corrected: "It's not about killing people, it's about killing enemies." ”

Chu Shuting said: "The enemy is also a human. ”

Gu Du smiled and nodded, this is what he is most afraid of, Chu Shuting is young, without ups and downs, she was selected as a child servant before the age of eight, Lixia and Jin Lan are both children who treat her like a sister and a mother, and grow up in a stable nest.

However, it will not work if you say it with your mouth, you have to go into battle to hone it, and at the moment you are not in a hurry, just wait for the court to reply, and see what you say.

Gu Du put her down on the ground and said, "Let's go, let's go to training, and we'll talk about killing the enemy later." ”
