Chapter 158 Chapter 164: King Zhou is under house arrest
The terrain of Tianmen Mountain is treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and a major exchange of fire is bound to cause heavy casualties. Gongsun Jin's first consideration was how to move the battlefield.
And what Qin Ruse was thinking about was how to trap the southwest toast in that place!
"We've set up an ambush here, it's their way down the mountain, and we have the best chance of winning here."
Gongsun Jin dissected his thoughts little by little, and Qin Ruse kept nodding his head, but he did not agree substantively. Because she already had a better idea in her heart.
"Thur, do you think there is something wrong with this king's method?"
"Well, there is naturally no problem with the king's thoughts. This place is flat and unexpected, as long as you remember it, you will definitely be able to kill them by surprise. It's just that I'm wondering if there's a way to be bloodless. β
"Bloodless?" Gongsun Jin subconsciously smiled, "This is a march to fight, not as simple as ambushing a nest of mountain bandits when you are dart." β
Qin Ruse knew that Gongsun Jin naturally didn't believe what he was saying now, so he lay on the chair with his eyes closed and continued to refine his thoughts.
Not long after, Qin Ruse suddenly got up and ran outside.
"Why are you going?"
"You'll find out later."
As soon as Qin Ruse went out, he shouted into the battle: "Your Majesty, lend me your lieutenant!" After speaking, he pulled He Li and went towards the back mountain.
"Mother, what are we?"
"I'll explain the rest to you later, you cut down this tree first!"
"Cutting down trees?" He Li's face was at a loss, why did he cut down the tree. Seeing that Qin Ruse didn't answer, He Li didn't want to be disobedient, so he had to take the short knife he carried with him to do something.
The branch of the tree chosen by Qin Ruse was thick, and it took He Li more than half an hour to cut down this tree.
"Okay, just leave the rest to me, you can just find these things for me."
He Li looked at all the things on the list, and the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt. Now that the enemy is now, does the princess still have to celebrate the Thousand Lights Festival?
Qin Ruse tossed and turned all day, until the end of the evening.
"Your Majesty, I've figured out a way!" Qin Ruse ran back with a Kong Ming lantern, and just walked down the aisle, Gongsun Jin yawned a big one in front of him.
"Lanterns?"
Qin Ruse nodded, and she turned the lantern sideways and showed it to Gongsun Jin.
"What do you mean?" Gongsun Jin watched it for a long time, but he didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
Qin Ruse patted his head fiercely and sighed: "Sure enough, such a genius method, only I thought of it!" Look! β
After Qin Ruse finished speaking, he took Gongsun Jin's hand and walked out of the big tent.
She placed the lantern on the ground, lit it, and watched as the lantern rose into the sky.
"You lit a Kong Ming lantern, are you going to make this king make a wish to win the war?" Gongsun Jin was slightly annoyed, he felt that Qin Ruse seemed to be teasing himself. But according to his daughter-in-law's temperament, it shouldn't be!
"Hell, keep watching!"
When this empty lantern rises little by little, it is like a bright moon in the night. A gentle breeze blew through, and the Kong Ming lantern drifted into the distance. Just when Gongsun Jin's interest was about to be extinguished, the Kong Ming lantern suddenly burned in the air, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, and the lantern fell next to a tent in the southeast corner of the barracks, burning the tent.
"Burn down the company camp?"
"Uh-huh!" Qin Ruse nodded proudly, picked up another lantern and displayed it in front of Gongsun Jin: "In the past, the master who made the lantern would generally use water-soaked bamboo strips or iron wire and copper wire to make places like keel. When the candle is burned, the lantern will fall. As for me, I replaced those things with cotton threads, and as soon as it burns for a long time, the lantern will break, and it will naturally fall inside. And I wrapped a layer of cotton around the lantern. As long as there is an accident with the lantern, then the lantern will burn a bigger fire. When the time comes, their grain and grass will be burned, won't we be able to complete the task without a single soldier? β
"The princess can think of such a method, we really admire the five-body throw."
Others praised the piano, she just smiled, she looked forward to Gongsun Jin praising herself.
"You have such a good brain, when will you give birth to a clever little bean for this king!"
The topic of having children is like a red light forbidden place between the two of them. Suddenly chatted, both of them would be a little embarrassed. Qin Ruse's face instantly turned a little red and white, and she walked into the big tent.
"Mother, this is?" He Li and the others asked puzzled.
Gongsun Jin naturally knew why Qin Ruse was unhappy. Because it was himself who said that he wanted a child, and in the end he didn't want a child himself. I'm sorry for her, and I dare to mention such a thing.
"Thur!" Gongsun Jin walked into the battle and stood behind Qin Ruse.
"Hmm!"
"Still angry?"
"Nope!" Qin Ruse closed her eyes, afraid that her eyes would drip out. She turned around and hugged Gongsun Jin: "One day, if you hold the whole world in your hands, we will have a pair of children, okay." β
"Good!" Gongsun Jin's answer was sonorous and powerful.
Three days later, the qinjia delivered hundreds of thousands of stone grains to the southwest Tusi on the first line. The night before the delivery, Qin Lin'an secretly asked people to exchange more than half of the grain for hay. Because he felt that his niece and niece-in-law would definitely make a move, so instead of wasting it, it was better to keep a hand at the beginning.
In this way, in the end, my niece failed to succeed, and I can still say that because I am scheming, I helped Southwest Toast think of this in advance.
On this day, after receiving the grain, the people of the southwest Tusi did not leave immediately. Because they felt that it was easy to expose their whereabouts during the day, they delayed until the evening before they were ready to leave.
However, this kind of naΓ―ve idea is in the heart of Qin Ruse and Gongsun Jin.
After the sky completely darkened, Da Zhou released all the lanterns prepared in advance. The southwesterners had never seen such a scene, and they panicked for a while.
"What's that?"
"What are those things?"
"Oh, today is the Thousand Lights Festival of the Great Zhou, and people will say that their wishes are written on the lanterns and released. Let their wish to cut the chicken for nothing be carried far away and told to the Daluo Immortal in the sky. One person explained.
"I see. Then let's go quickly, otherwise it will be bad for Da Zhou's spies to find out.
The southwestern soldiers who received the order immediately increased the speed of their feet. It's just that it doesn't help, everything is already in someone else's control. The soldiers in the southwest finally drove the carriage escorting grain and grass to the next day, but at this time, because the huge mountain blocked the way of Kong Ming's lantern, the wind passing through the mountain made the lantern disappear and spin in place. It didn't take long for him to fall. Thousands of burning Kong Ming lanterns were like fire bombs falling down one by one.
