I'm Liu Bei.

Zhu Jinlong looked around, his eyes resting on the thatched houses of the tribesmen.

"The houses in the village are built in such a disorderly manner that they can easily be occupied in the event of an invasion or internal rebellion, and the whole village cannot form an effective defensive force. For example, a courtyard wall combined with archers can effectively stop the advance of enemy soldiers in the village, but the houses in the village do not have courtyard walls. In addition, the village roads are full of potholes, different widths and narrows, extremely unsmooth, simple and clear, and have no complicated and extending characteristics in all directions, which is not conducive to the rapid assembly of the army. ”

"There are too many thatched huts, which are easy to catch fire and difficult to extinguish. However, the grass huts are too close to the entrance of the village, and if the enemy uses rockets to attack at the entrance of the village, it will cause a fire. Therefore, from a military point of view, the current houses need to be demolished and rebuilt. Despite this, his subordinates thought it was better not to tear it down and rebuild it. ”

"Tell me why." I asked.

"If there is a war in the village, there should be no point in holding on to the village, and you can only retreat to the mountains; In addition, the ethnic groups are not expected to migrate easily, except for the nomads, all ethnic groups have a house love complex. ”

"Yes, maybe this is the characteristic of the Han people, otherwise, how could there be a 'five nonsense'? Although it is difficult to tear down and rebuild, have you thought about the benefits? ”

Zhu Jinlong looked dazed: "What is Wuhu Chaohua?" ”

"I'll talk about that later. Let's start by talking about the benefits. ”

"The benefit is to improve and increase the village's defensive capacity."

"There's one more you didn't mention. Increase the defensive awareness of the people, so as to increase the cohesion of the people. Isn't it worth doing these two things? I asked rhetorically.

"My lord, but the current situation is very complicated, and it is not conducive to such a big move." Zhu Jinlong said.

"You see that, too?"

"Back to my lord. After the subordinates' observation of the tribesmen in the past two days, they vaguely felt that there was a strange force in the clan that was about to move. They hide very deeply, and they always make it impossible for their subordinates to find their movements. Zhu Jinlong lowered his voice and said.

"Observant and nuanced, he is a general's talent." Patted him on the shoulder. "Ever since I became the patriarch, I have been trying my best to resolve all the conflicts in the clan. The infighting is extremely draining on the strength of the whole clan, and there is no patience to find evidence of their rebellion. ”

"Do you know who they are? If it is not nipped in the bud, it may cause even greater harm in the future. ”

"Wait. If this battle can be defended, there will be many things to do in the clan. I believe that they will not make a mess at this critical juncture, and we are finished, and they will be finished. The most hateful thing is that there is no evidence, otherwise, there is no need to worry about it all day long. ”

Looking at the white river surging eastward, he sighed: "The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes." ”

As he was talking, the third grandfather trotted over and gasped: "Bei'er, the Han army has blocked the exit of the valley, and the White Snake Village has fallen into a siege. ”

"How did you find out about this?" I hurriedly helped him and asked, only then did I blame myself for being careless, I believed too much that Zhang Jiao could defeat the Han army. It's just here that I hang around and build in the clan unhurriedly. What a damn one!

"In the past few days, the old man has been sending people to carefully investigate the situation in the White Snake Village." The third grandfather said.

"What action did the White Snake Village take?"

"White Snake Village organized several tentative breakouts, all of which were repulsed. It's strange to say. The Han army was only surrounded, neither attacking nor allowing a breakthrough. The White Snake Village is surrounded like an iron bucket. ”

The White Snake Village can be surrounded by 100,000 people?

"Grandpa, is the Han army 100,000 horses surrounding the White Snake Village?"

"It's estimated to be half, 50,000 people."

Where did the remaining 50,000 go?

Although Dong Zhuo is not as good at leading troops to fight as Cao Cao and Sun Ce, his reputation as a hero of the Three Kingdoms is not covered. Could it be that there is some kind of trick in this? Thinking that Dong Zhuo's subordinates had a think tank Li Ru, they couldn't help but be afraid that he had some kind of conspiracy.

In the romance, Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and strategist, and he is Dong Zhuo's confidant, and he consults with him on matters big and small, which can be called a think tank. Dong Zhuo took advantage of the chaos to enter Beijing, said that Lu Bu was surrendered, abolished the emperor, and moved the capital to Chang'an, all of which were all participated by Li Ru.

"Will the 50,000 Han army attack the canyon?" The third grandfather guessed. No wonder the third grandfather came in such a hurry, if this matter becomes a fact, then the canyon is in danger.

"Very likely." Zhu Jinlong said in shock: "We always thought that the Han army would attack the White Snake Village first, and then attack it after victory. So they deliberately took advantage of this psychology and adopted the tactic of roundabout advance, first surround the White Snake Village, and then make a detour to carry out a surprise attack on us, wanting to defeat us in one fell swoop! ”

"If so, what should I do?" A little flustered, he sighed.

The fortifications of the gorge had not yet begun to be built, and the army in the valley was only two and a half curves, and it was still a poorly trained villager. Even if 3,000 clan soldiers helped, it would be a drop in the bucket, and it would not help in the slightest against the 50,000 army.

The more urgent the matter, the more important it is to stay calm. Now only the conspiracy in the heart can save the canyon. Hurry up and go to Elder Baili now, I believe he must have a strategy to deal with it

When I arrived at Baili's residence, Bailiru was carrying herbs down from the mountain behind the house, and when she saw that I didn't even put down her back, she hurriedly ran over, smiled arrogantly and held her arm and said, "Why do you have time to come to me?" ”

"I miss you! Is the elder here? ”

"Hmph, fake! Don't think of me at all. ”

"If something big is happening in the clan, tell me where the elder is?" I said anxiously.

Seeing my serious appearance, Bailiru knew that the matter was urgent, and said, "You wait." He turned and went into the house.

A moment later, her cry was heard: "Grandpa! ”

When he hurriedly rushed in to look, Elder Baili was lying on the couch and had already died. It's not poisoning, it's not assassination, it's the real end of life.

Sad at the same time, I had to comfort Bailiru. I didn't expect that God would be so disgusting and take his life at this critical juncture. Could it be that the heavens intended to destroy me?

Out of the house, Zhu Jinlong asked anxiously, "What should I do?" ”。

"What else can I do? After burying the elders first. "I was distraught.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei rushed to hear the news. The five of us discussed the coping strategy in front of the house. The problem lies in the fact that the number of people is too small. Moreover, the enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, and the Han army has the advantage.

The only way to gamble is to gamble. Set up an ambush in the mountain road in advance. Stop the Han army in the mountain road, the mountain road is not wide, the army cannot be used, no matter how many people there are, it is useless! Yes, that's it!

"Zhu Jinlong. You go to the mountain road at once to investigate, and you will not find out the movements of the 50,000 Han troops. The second brother pulled the army to the entrance of the village and prepared to ambush at any time. As soon as I finished speaking, Deng Mao hurriedly reported: "The spies are here, and the Han army has appeared in the mountain road!" ”

"How far into the valley?"

"Three miles!"

"Grandpa's, it's so fast!" Zhang Fei scolded.

Qiu Ming ran to report in a panic: "The Li and Shan two clans have rebelled and have occupied the clan courtyard. ”
