Chapter 028: Rounding to Zero
The three armies did not move, and the grain and grass went first.
Before the team led by Liu Futong moved, Jiang Qinglan had already secretly headed to the destination with 500 escort troops.
After leaving Yingzhou City, Jiang Qinglan divided the five hundred soldiers into small teams, and then let them disperse.
"Miss Jiang, let's first explain that we don't have an opinion, it's just that we have few people, and you still let us scatter, if someone comes to rob the grain and grass, we can't resist at all." A soldier said cautiously.
"If you don't disperse, if someone comes to cut off the beard, you can stop it?" Jiang Qinglan asked rhetorically.
"If there are not many people coming, we should be able to stop them. The soldier replied.
"And after that?" Jiang Qinglan then asked.
"After that?" the soldier was a little confused, after winning the battle, of course, he continued to transport grain and grass.
Jiang Qinglan saw his stunned look and sighed, "Heroes, we are escorting grain and grass, the most important task is to transport grain and grass to the place where it should be transported, the Yuan court cut off the trade route, just want to cut off the grain and grass of the Yingzhou Righteous Army, if they find us at this time, they will definitely come desperately to rob and kill, we have no reinforcements, but the other party has countless help, even if you can use one as ten, block the first wave, can you block the second wave?"
"So what we have to consider this escort is not how to resist the enemy army who comes to rob the grain and grass, but how to keep the grain and grass from being discovered. ”
"Divide you into small teams, pretend to be merchants, one is to hide people's eyes, and the other is to spread the risk, five hundred people go together, the target is easy to be discovered, not to mention, if you are defeated, all the grain and grass will be captured by the enemy, the separate force is indeed weakened, but the target is small, and even if it is robbed, not all the grain and grass will be lost. ”
After listening to Jiang Qinglan's explanation, everyone understood, and at the same time, they suddenly admired Jiang Qinglan more and more in their hearts.
They all thought about how to make the team more powerful, thinking that it would deter the enemy, but they forgot that their main duty in escorting grain and grass was not to kill the enemy, but to ensure that the grain and grass were delivered to the place where they belonged.
Fortunately, Miss Jiang was strategic, and came up with a way to break it into pieces.
So without waiting for Jiang Qinglan to speak again, they consciously divided into teams, and then each distributed the grain and grass they carried.
Jiang Qinglan was very relieved to see them like this, and finally grew a little.
On this side, the grain and grass escort is proceeding in an orderly manner, and on the other side, Liu Futong is rubbing his head, looking at Zhu Chongba in front of him helplessly, "Third brother, it's not that the eldest brother won't let you go, but even I don't know her whereabouts at this time." ”
"For such a big thing as escorting grain and grass, you gave her 500 people, and now you still say that you don't know her whereabouts? The commander of the first army doesn't even know where the grain and grass are?" Zhu Chongba's face, which had always been expressionless, was full of anger at this time.
"I'll tell you the truth, I was in a hurry to go to the doctor, thinking that my second sister Lu Ziguang might really be able to get grain and grass, but when we negotiated, there was a mention that the trade route was intercepted, so I stopped this hope, five hundred people were just a reason, and I wanted to send her over to protect her safety, but who would have thought that she really got grain and grass, and only let me go on the road. Liu Futong was also worried at this time, and he knew that he would send more people to her.
"She didn't tell you, so I don't believe that there are no cronies of you among the five hundred. Zhu Chongba looked at Liu Futong firmly, "They didn't send the news back?"
Among the five hundred escort soldiers at that time, he did point out a few trustworthy and capable people inside, but he was in order to protect Jiang Qinglan, and he definitely had no bad intentions inside, but when Zhu Chongba said this, what he said was like what he had in mind, Liu Futong touched his nose a little embarrassed, "There is a man named Lao Ma, but the last time he sent the news, he said that he was going to build a temple on the hill ten miles away from Yingzhou City, and after that, I don't know why, there was no news." ”
