Chapter 185: Failure to Break Out
"One enemy hundred?" Hearing this, Qiu Peng was amused in his heart, the few officers and soldiers of the Thunder Fire Hall he saw were really not as good as the mercenaries he saw, let alone the jīng Rui of the Black-clothed Sect that Qiu Peng had seen at the Seven Wounds Academy, compared to these Eastern Ace teams. In fact, even the original members of the Floating Cloud Gang seemed to be a few points stronger than the Thunder Fire Hall.
"So, what is the best way for the hall master to break the enemy?" Qiu Peng asked wistfully.
Chen Yanjin turned his head to look at Qiu Peng lightly and said, "You are Li Zixuan?"
Qiu Peng nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Chen Yanjin nodded and said, "Looking at your age, listening to Guan Da's report, you are still very talented." Where did you graduate?"
Qiu Peng was stunned and said, "What?" This matter can't be said, and everyone knows that they came out of the mountains and wilderness, and they haven't gone to any academy or anything like that.
He Ping quietly reminded Qiu Peng: "The hall master is asking you which school you have studied in. ”
Qiu Peng pretended to be serious and shook his head and said, "I didn't go to school. ”
Chen Yanjin looked at Qiu Peng, and a look of pity appeared on his face, "It's a pity, it's a pity, such a beautiful and good talent, but he didn't encounter an opportunity, and he was ruined." Are you a fourth-rate eighteen-rate?"
Qiu Peng nodded, suspicious in his heart: "In He Ping's mouth, how glorious it is to be a disciple of the four sects and eighteenth ranks, and the future is bright, but now in Chen Biting Jin's mouth, the four sects and eighteenth streams sound like the next three indiscriminate? ”
Chen Yanjin nodded at Qiu Peng and said, "It's really a mistake." Brother iǎ, while you are still iǎ, I think you should hurry up and go to school. I can write you a letter of recommendation and strongly recommend you to one of the most famous schools in the martial arts - Canglng School. I studied there for a few years, and after I came out, I was able to have a future. What's the point of being with these four and eighteenth-rate inferior stupid people?"
A trace of anger flashed on He Ping's face, and he said: "Hall Master Chen, our four sects and eighteen-rate people are not stupid people, back then, some leaders and outstanding generals in the gang had disciples of our four sects and eighteen-rate. ”
Chen Yanjin looked at He Ping, and said teasingly: "Ah, I forgot about it, there is an old guy from the four sects and eighteenth rank here." But if I'm not mistaken, since the current cabinet master ascended the throne and issued the decree that you must have an academy diploma to enter the army and management, except for those few old immortals, there are really few people in the upper martial arts society who are the four of you and the eighteenth-rate. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Biting Jin smiled mockingly: "By the way, I heard that the sect masters of the four sects and eighteenth ranks, although they themselves still stubbornly guard the signboards of the four sects and eighteenth ranks, their sons and nephews have all participated in formal college education, which can be regarded as tacit approval." I wonder if your son has entered some of the academies?"
He Ping opened his mouth and closed it again, but he didn't speak, but his actions had already answered.
Only then did Qiu Peng understand that in fact, joining this Xingyue Stream does not look so glorious, and the future is bright, and the so-called promising Yunyun is probably only made up by He Ping.
However, Qiu Peng actually felt that it didn't matter, and said: "I think we can talk about this issue again." Hall Master Chen, without further ado, may I ask what is the best way to break the enemy?"
Seeing that Chen Yanjin looked like he was a bamboo, as if the enemy army in front of him would be wiped out with a wave of his hand, Qiu Peng was very curious. Chen Yanjin smiled and said, "Listen to me." ”
Chen Yanjin said confidently: "Think about it, within a radius of thousands of miles, I'm afraid you won't be able to find 30,000 ace troops." So, these armies appear to be ace armies, but in fact they must have been poor people recruited from the local area. Come to think of it, those untouchables who are obviously malnourished are completely different from the regular army's training, and their combat effectiveness is also very different. "It is wishful thinking to counter my 5,000 battle-hardened, well-trained regular army with 30,000 untouchables. What's more, the enemy took a position of encirclement, which happened to be my chance to break through. ”
Qiu Peng was stunned and said, "However, they don't look like they are made up of poor people. ”
Chen Yanjin shook his head and said, "This can't be anything else. Armies are not made out of thin air. Do you know how much it costs to raise 30,000 soldiers? Moreover, according to what I know, the orcs do not pay attention to this area at all, and it is impossible to send 30,000 soldiers to conquer this area. ”
Qiu Peng said: "Well, even if it is poor. That's tens of thousands of people, at least they should have been trained, and Hall Master Chen shouldn't take it lightly. I think it's better to think of a way sooner rather than later. ”
Chen Yanjin looked at Qiu Peng lightly, and said arrogantly: "Brother iǎ, it's a pity that you don't have formal military training and education, otherwise you would know how reasonable what I said." According to our textbooks, not one veteran out of ten recruits may be useful when it comes to war. The number of veterans and recruits killed or wounded on the battlefield is generally more than 1 to 10. There is such a big gap between recruits and veterans, and the gap between untouchables and veterans is naturally self-evident. The soldiers under my command are all experienced soldiers, and it is natural to defeat them. ”
"But"
"What's more," Chen Yanjin continued triumphantly, "according to my estimates, the enemy must be taking a suspicious tactic, and for a battle of 30,000 people, the actual number is still 10,000. The enemy actually wants me to be scared and immediately break through and flee, which is called surrendering without a fight. In the art of war, it is believed that it is the best policy. If I break through and flee now, I will respond to the enemy's plan. ”
"However," Chen Yanjin was speechless when he saw Qiu Peng (in fact, he didn't enter his mouth), and he was even more proud in his heart, and said: "Brother iǎ, you can rest in the camp with peace of mind, and when the soldiers are rested enough after dawn, prepare for battle, and at that time, we will fight a beautiful victory for you." After speaking, Chen Yanjin asked the soldiers to bring Qiu Peng and the others back. Back in the camp, Qiu Peng, He Ping, and Dou Jianhou looked at each other, not knowing what to say. After dawn, Qiu Peng and the others were confined to the barracks and were not allowed to move around casually. There was no news from anyone to them, and all day long, everyone stayed in the barracks, not knowing what the situation was, and their hearts were uneasy.
In the afternoon, Guan Da finally appeared, and everyone eagerly asked him what was going on, Guan Da shook his head with a heavy face, did not speak, but asked Qiu Peng and He Ping to leave.
In this way, Qiu Peng saw Chen Yanjin again. However, this time, Qiu Peng saw that Chen Biting Jin was completely different, and could only be described as a wolf bèi, with gauze wrapped everywhere on his body, looking like a big white zongzi.
I saw that he hung his head and said with a pale face: "Hello everyone. ”
He Ping knew that the more proud people like Chen Yanjin, the easier it was to be angry with others after failure. He was even more cautious and didn't dare to ask what was going on, and quietly motioned to Qiu Peng not to speak.
Chen Yanjin confessed by himself: "I almost succeeded, if it weren't for God's lack of beauty." Just now I transferred 4,000 jīng rui and went to charge the camp. I didn't expect that the position of the enemy's camp was really evil, every time it seemed that there was only a camp of five hundred men, when I rushed there, seven or eight armies would outflank and attack, but I also blamed these people under my command for being greedy for life and afraid of death, so they retreated like water. ”
When Chen Yanjin said this, he said viciously: "If it weren't for the greed for life and fear of death, I would definitely not have lost this battle today." Although we were smaller in number than they were, we were much more concentrated than they were when we stormed the camp. But as soon as these guys saw each other's vicious appearances, they couldn't even hold their swords. What a bunch of pigs!"
