Chapter Twenty-Eight: Shooting in front of the battle
The rain showed no signs of abating, from the light rain at the beginning, it has now turned into a downpour, but Ling Su, who is well aware of the weather changes in June, knows that the heavy rain should not last more than three hours.
"Captain, what are we going to do next?" Hao Chi came to Ling Su's side, who was now munching on dry food while observing the improvised military map.
Hearing Hao Chi's words, Ling Su pointed to Feishui City above and said: "Although Feishui City is not a big city, there are thousands of defenders, we can't eat it, besides, even if the defenders are small, all our cavalry is not capable of attacking, so we can't touch here, and if you go southwest from here, you will encounter the enemy's southeast military headquarters, so it's not safe over there." Ling Su was analyzing, he had been analyzing the best route for the past three days, and his seventh squadron had created miracles all the way to the present, and even now there was no attrition, and what he has to do now is to find a way to take his brothers out safely.
"Look here, this is the northernmost part of the Xiqi Kingdom, and it is also the location of our Northern Army!" Ling Su pointed to the north of Feishui City and said: "Our army here is the strongest, basically we always fight against the Xiqi Army, if we can find a way to attract the enemy troops along the road to Feishui City, then we can make a small circle from this position and break out of the encirclement!" Ling Su had actually discovered this route a long time ago, but the difficulty was that although the defense on this side was relatively poor, there were a lot of them, they were not three hundred and seventy people, they only had thirty-seven people, how could thirty-seven people break out of the encirclement, the key point was whether they could attract people from this side to return to Feishui City, once the enemy's northern troops returned to Feishui City, then they would be able to rush out at their speed.
"If you want them to come back to Feishui City, you must make Feishui City have a crisis, although Feishui City is small, but it is their strategic location, they dare not lose it easily, once Feishui City is threatened, then the nearest northern army from here will definitely rush to the aid as soon as possible!" Hao Chi also nodded in agreement with Ling Su's analysis.
"That's right, but the question is how do we make Feishui City feel the crisis and ask for help?" Ling Su always considered, as long as this problem was not solved, they would not be able to get out.
"Scare them!" Li Wei on the side suddenly spoke, although he had not joined the Seventh Squadron for a long time, but after so many battles, he had already integrated into it, and now he could be regarded as talking.
"How can you scare you! Thirty-seven of us ran to the city to scare us? Do you say that we are afraid or are they afraid?" Ling Su glanced at Li Wei, and he didn't need to think about it.
"Then we can sneak in and scare them! Let's change into the clothes of the common people and take advantage of the heavy rain to sneak into the city!" Li Wei continued with some unconvinced. However, his words were exchanged for the contemptuous gaze of a group of people, even Ouyang.
What did the Seventh Squadron rely on to get to where it is today? It is not as fast as the wind and its powerful lethality, if it is discarded with weapons and war horses and replaced with civilian clothes, there will be no problem in blending in, but how can it be frightened after blending in? Is it really possible if all 37 people are like Wang Meng......
"Otherwise!" Ouyang stood up from the ground, walked to Ling Su's side, squatted down and said, "You see if this will work, we will go to the city to scare them according to what Li Wei said!"
"What do you say?" Ling Su didn't think that Ouyang was as brainless as Li Wei, since he dared to say that, there must be a back move, as for what the back move was, he didn't know it for the time being.
"Of course, it is impossible for the thirty-seven of us to attack the city and scare them, but let's change our thinking, we will cause them a little chaos under the city, and then scare them in the name of the following war stickers, what do you say?" Ouyang came up with a way to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf to scare people.
"How to get off the war sticker?" It was the first time Ling Su had heard of the war and the war sticker, but he still wanted to hear about Ouyang's plan.
"We fought all the way here, the enemy must know about our existence, but we have not killed any people so far, and we have not left a living mouth all the way, the enemy army cannot know our number, you must know that we win more with less every time, but the enemy army does not know!" Ouyang looked at Ling Su and said to himself, but Ling Su's eyes were a little dazed.
"Let's put it this way, we know that we only have thirty-seven people, we can only raid and not attack the city, but the enemy doesn't know, so now thirty-seven people run to the other party's city to cause some chaos, and then how many of us have is not up to us, as long as the numbers are not exaggerated, they should all believe it. Ouyang said what he meant.
"Are you saying that we falsely reported the number to make them think that we were not thirty-seven, maybe three hundred and seven, or even three thousand seven, so that they were nervous and scared, and then asked the Northern Army for help?" Ling Su's eyes lit up when he heard Ouyang's idea, there was no doubt that this was a very beautiful plan.
"That's right, but we can't be stupid with this battle sticker, we have to reveal it intentionally or unintentionally, so that they think that we are just the vanguard troops, and the big army will arrive later!" Ouyang knew that in fact, this move was also very dangerous, because they had also exposed their positions after such a provocation, and they had to escape around Dacang Mountain immediately, otherwise they would definitely be besieged and killed.
"Indeed!" Ling Su nodded as he thought about how he could reveal a false news intentionally or unintentionally and still make the other party believe it.
"Let Ouyang shoot at them in front of the formation, and then we can just turn around and leave!" Li Wei, the big black man, spoke again, but his words were always nonsensical.
Ouyang glanced at this guy, joking, it's no problem to shoot at people in front of the formation, but leave after shooting?
"What a good idea!" Just when Ouyang wanted to open his mouth to insult Li Wei, Ling Su slapped his thigh and stood up and said, "That's it! Ouyang shoots at them in front of the formation, and then we will help you press the formation, and we will leave after the fight!"
"Huh?" Hearing Ling Su's words, Ouyang was stunned! Li Wei had no brain, when did Ling Su lose his brain? He still said that he was okay with such a mentally retarded idea? But thinking about it, Ouyang seemed to understand Ling Su's thoughts, and he threw a smile at Ling Su.
"Hahahaha! We can still play them before we leave, which is also very happy!" With Ling Su's resolute style, once he thinks of it, he will immediately put it into action.
"Ouyang prepare well, this time it's your one-man performance, it's up to you whether you succeed or not!" Ling Su patted Ouyang on the shoulder and continued: "This time I go out, I will personally go to the military headquarters to ask for credit for you!"
Ling Su's words exited, a group of knights from the seventh squadron nodded one after another, there is no doubt that this way in, if there is no Ouyang, let alone burning the munitions depot, I am afraid that they will be wiped out when they encounter three hundred infantry elites at the beginning, if they really want to ask for credit, then Ouyang will definitely take the lead.
