"Good. "Song Qinglian has always been a decisive person, and from the fact that he refused many promotion opportunities for Zhao Heyan, it can be seen that he has his own opinions.

Sending Song Qinglian away, Yu Hongliang also said goodbye to Li Da Fat, and returned to the barracks with Tai Yuanming, the troops were assembled, Yu Hongliang called Song Wencheng and Ma Kuo together, recounted what happened just now to the two, and then asked, "I don't know what the two of you think?"

After hearing this, Ma Kuo was the first to say, "I understand that from receiving the holy decree to sending troops, it will take at least three days. And the coach Shi Xuehai is a civilian official in charge, relatively conservative, he will definitely send Lu Wenhan to send troops first to explore the truth. Therefore, we can send troops to beat Lu Wenhan first, if it succeeds, Shi Xuehai will definitely be frightened, and he will definitely withdraw dozens of miles away before discussing countermeasures. ”

"So that we can have time to continue beating Lu Wenhan's soldiers and horses?" Song Wencheng asked.

"Yes, this not only serves as a knock on the mountain, but also tests the combat effectiveness of our soldiers. Ma Kuo glanced at Song Wencheng, nodded and replied.

"It's not appropriate. Song Wencheng waved his hand again and again, "We can't attack Lu Wenhan first, it is taboo for soldiers to be nameless, and there is a huge disparity in troops, we can set up cards along the way of Lu Wenhan's soldiers and horses, and start a decisive battle outside our barracks, first, the ship-borne close defense artillery on the mountain can exert its power, and second, we can also let the soldiers of the Shenji battalion participate in the battle, so that our combat strength will be enhanced." ”

"Most of our troops are the people of Zhenyuan Prefecture, and Lu Wenhan's soldiers are also mainly from Zhenyuan Prefecture, fratricidal cannibalism will reduce morale, if it is because the base is attacked, it is another matter if we are defending our homeland. After Song Wencheng said the method, he also expressed his concerns.

"If we don't take the initiative to attack, the casualties will be immeasurable, we have only built most of the city walls, if 20,000 crossbowmen and 10,000 arrows are all together, and we have no fortifications and no shields to resist, it is very likely that the opponent's crossbowmen will wipe out our entire army, alas, it is not easy to do. ”

The three people in the command post fell silent, all looking down and thinking, and they didn't even notice Xiang Qingxi's sudden appearance. The three of them were silent for a while, and then each made their own suggestions, but they couldn't be unified, Xiang Qingxi listened to it for a while, and then flashed away.

Before the military camp was built, someone came to make up his mind, this is not good, the current Xiang Qingxi is not as simple as before, he is in line with the principle that people don't offend me, I don't offend people, but someone has already hit him on the head, so he no longer cares.

"Cannibalism can't happen. Xiang Qingxi, who had made up his mind, quietly left the base alone and went straight to the other end of the city of Zhenyuan Prefecture, about fifty miles, where the army under the jurisdiction of the state commander was located.

He stood in the sacred bead to observe this large camp, this is also the first time he has a close observation of the ancient military camp, this large camp is built by the mountains and rivers, the dense tents stretch for dozens of miles, as if it is a city, each military tent is arranged together in an orderly manner.

On the two-person high earthen wall, the Wangfeng Tower, the arrow battlements, the barracks, abound, the huge Song crossbow looms behind the arrow battlement, and the iron head of the crossbow arrow shines with a dazzling cold light in the sun.

There is a small camp gate built in front of the largest tent, and a large golden flag is held in front of the door, with the words "Song Commander" written on it, and there are countless battle flags next to it, and thousands of flags shake and wave with the wind whistling under the mountain. There is also a thick flagpole next to this tent, and a road character handsome flag is hung on it, which should be the Chinese army tent that commanded Lu Wenhan.

In the open space in front of the camp gate, the horse team is lined up, many sergeants are training, each is strong and brave, carrying sharp blades, the war horses on the side are fat and strong, and the men and horses are all black helmets and black armor, and the evil atmosphere is pervasive.

Looking at this military camp that spanned dozens of miles, a magnificent wave somehow surged in his chest, standing in the divine bead, and he was stunned unconsciously.

Xiang Qingxi, who came back to his senses, either appeared in the barracks in a flash, or flashed into the Shenzhu and sneaked around, gradually approaching the largest Chinese army tent, adjusting his position to check the situation in the tent, in the middle of the military tent, there was a middle-aged and elderly officer with gray hair and a yellow face, it was Lu Wenhan, several generals in armor standing in front of the military case, and they were looking at their commanders respectfully.

Lu Wenhan cleared his throat and said, "Today, I received a holy decree that a group of grass bandits appeared in the woods south of Zhenyuan Prefecture, gathering people to make trouble, disturbing the peace of the people of Zhenyuan Prefecture, and specially ordered us to cooperate with all departments of the Beida Camp to go together to exterminate it. Marshal Shi Xuehai ordered me to go and find out the truth, I don't know what the generals will do?"

A general walked out, "A group of grass cowards still want to explore the truth and reality? The army directly presses the border, and there is no reason not to surrender! Lord Lu, the last general is willing to lead the troops to the battle." ”

"You don't have to be impatient, Master Shi took more than a hundred people to Qingfeng Restaurant to behead General Ma Kuo, and he never returned, do you really think that the other party is a rabble?" Lu Wenhan frowned and asked rhetorically.

"Commander Lu, the small one thinks, send people to surrender first, if it doesn't work, gather the people of Zhenyuan Prefecture together, and rush to that wood, it will definitely disturb the enemy's morale, the army's morale is not there, and it will be self-defeating. A sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked, triangular-eyed strategist-like figure walked out and said.

"Well, this plan is good, who else has a better plan?" Lu Wenhan nodded, but glanced at the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked strategist, and felt a little displeased in his heart, thinking, "Lao Tzu is a native of Zhenyuanzhou, you let Lao Tzu drive his father and fellow villagers to block arrows for him, what kind of heart do you have." ”

At this time, a scholar walked out, this person was born with dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, bright teeth and pure Zhu, three teeth covering his mouth and beard, thirty-one and twelve years old, wearing a soap gauze corner cluster scarf, wearing a purple embroidered robe, and a delicate inlaid jade ring around his waist.

After walking out, he first gave Lu Wenhan a deep salute, and then paced around in the military tent before he said slowly, "My lord, I remember that the terrain is similar to my military camp, surrounded by mountains and rivers. I thought that we should first send a capable team of 1,000 people dressed in night clothes, with many arrows to lurk quietly on the top of the mountain, and then let the main force surround the enemy camp, prepare a defensive position, and hold the troops still. ”

"Why is this?" asked Lu Wenhan as he sat up straight and looked at the scholar.

"Yes, according to the troops, the main force of our army brought more torches, fire vines, sulfur and saltpeter, and then sent messengers to persuade them to surrender, during this period, put combustible things between the two armies, add vanilla, form a burning belt, leaving only a frontal exit, if the persuasion fails, then make the main force feint frontally, attract the enemy to the front, and then the main force retreats, let the archers light the burning belt. ”

The scholar stopped suddenly, stopped talking, as if thinking about something, and after a while said again, "The time of attack can be set at the time of the day after tomorrow, when it should be the north wind, and the smoke will go with the wind, and then it will fill the entire forest, and there will only be an exit from the front, at this time, ......"

As soon as the scholar said this, Lu Wenhan took the case.
