Chapter 128: Woe to the King!
The team of thousands of people actually had some sounds of cattle and food swallowing in the process.
After eating, the soldiers did not talk much, but after checking and arranging their weapons and armor, they closed their eyes and rested on the spot.
Li Cunxiao also closed his eyes without saying a word.
Time flies slowly, but also quickly.
It may seem like a long time has passed, but it may only be a moment.
Finally a scout has returned.
"Report to the Captain, find the target. ”
Li Cunxiao opened his eyes and asked solemnly: "How many tents are there and what is the terrain?......
Li Cunxiao asked several questions in a row, and a scout could answer them one by one.
Li Cunxiao had a little more appreciation in his heart, Liang Xiping had not been in the Praetorian Guard for a long time, and it was not easy to be able to subdue these people and train to this extent.
Although he has not yet received the battle, he can achieve a clean military appearance, and the scouts can answer his questions fluently, which can already be regarded as a capable army.
I couldn't help but praise it, "Not bad." ”
Then begin to meditate with your eyes closed.
Then he picked up a twig and put it on the ground, as the scout described, and began to draw the general terrain.
After questioning the scouts, minor changes were made.
When a topographic map came out, he almost had the bottom of his mind.
However, he still called a few Qu commanders and two military commanders in the army.
He gave the scout a rough idea of what he had heard, and asked the scout to describe the general layout of the army in front of his hand-drawn simple topographic map.
Then he asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the general situation of the enemy army, do you have any opinion?"
After hearing this, several Qu Commanders and the two military commanders all pondered for a while.
After a while, one of the soldiers said, "According to the description of the scout, the opponent's strength is probably no less than 5,000 people, five times that of us.
Coupled with the advantages of the terrain, it is not advantageous for our army to attack.
I suggest we can attack at night and add fire!"
The other military Sima shook his head and said: "It's not proper, although night battles can make the other party panic, but we are not familiar with the terrain here, and the mountains are already complicated, so it is even more unfavorable for us at night."
In addition, we did not bring much dry food with us when we went out of the city, and by the evening we were afraid that we would already be hungry. ”
The previous military Sima frowned slightly when he heard this, but he had to nod, and then asked, "What about the fire attack?"
At this time, a Qu Chang said: "Sima, in the eyes of my subordinates, it is not appropriate to attack the fire, it is the height of summer, and the grass and trees on the mountain are full of water, and I am afraid that it is not easy to ignite."
Moreover, our army hurried out of the city, and there was nothing to set fire. ”
Li Cunxiao just listened and did not interrupt everyone's discussion.
In his heart, he admired Liang Xiping more and more, and said secretly: "No wonder Your Majesty said that Liang Xiping has the talent of a general, and I only have the qualifications of a famous general.
If you don't look at anything else, just look at this Liang Jun's training and training skills, I am not as good as me. ”
He asked these military commanders to discuss with Qu Chang, and he also wanted to see how well Liang Xiping's soldiers were training and how well they were training.
After some discussion, I feel very satisfied.
Although these people may still be a little immature due to experience, at least they already have the ability to think and ask questions.
When everyone finally threw their hands at him, they said, "Wei Wei, let's think about it, I feel that this battle is not easy to fight."
Firstly, the terrain of the enemy is more familiar than ours, and secondly, there are five times more people than me.
And we attack from the back, they dive, we attack, and they defend ......"
In the end, one of the military commanders said: "My subordinates suggest that we should retreat some distance first, set up camp, and then send people back to Beijing to report to Your Majesty and Liang Shuai, and ask them to send more people!"
Li Cunxiao smiled slightly when he heard this: "What you said makes sense, it is indeed safe to do so."
But you're ignoring one thing......"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, frowned and asked, "Please make it clear to Wei Wei!"
Li Cunxiao smiled when he heard this: "You have forgotten that they are weaker than us. ”
The crowd didn't react.
Li Cunxiao continued: "Since the sneak attack can't be successful, the fire attack can't be successful, then don't sneak attack, don't fire attack."
If the attack is not good, then let them come down by themselves, and we will just wait for our work!"
When the crowd heard this, they didn't know what to say.
He secretly said in his heart: "It's good, but people are enemies, why should they listen to you?"
However, there was also a smart moment among the crowd that reacted, and stroked his palms and said: "The subordinates understand, what Wei Wei means is to let them know that we have discovered them, and then we will pretend to withdraw from the army......"
"Haha, why are you pretending, it's just quitting!"
Li Cunxiao laughed and said: "Pass the order, beat the flag cane, and the whole army will return to Beijing!"
"Then the other party should be suspicious, right?"
The soldier who suggested the fire attack before asked hesitantly.
Li Cunxiao didn't care and said: "It doesn't make a difference whether they are suspicious or not, from the description of the scout, it seems that the other party has not only never been in the battle formation, but the training is far inferior to ours, and there is no need to talk about military discipline."
So we don't have to care about anything else, as long as we go with great fanfare, as long as they find out, they can't help but chase, as long as they chase, they will be chaotic.
As long as you urge the soldiers to maintain their formation, I dare to guarantee that they will not use ten miles, they will be in chaos without a fight, and when the time comes, not to mention five times as many as us, fifty times as many as us will be useless!"
"Whoa!"
When everyone heard his description, their eyes lit up and they responded.
Originally, everyone was also a little suspicious of Li Cunxiao, but at this moment there is no longer any doubt.
I thought that this guard captain was a reckless man who was brave in his own right, but now it seems that people are not good-looking.
How did they know that although Li Cunxiao looked rough, he usually felt very reckless.
But as a famous general who has left a name in history, is it really just based on being able to fight?
Although he is not a wise general, this little trick is no longer a problem.
As soon as the banner on their side lit up, coupled with the deliberate noise, those "bandits" on Cuiping Mountain couldn't even find out.
Immediately there was a panicked report to the council chamber.
"Oh no, no. ”
The soldiers broke into the council hall in a panic and shouted, "Woe to you, my lord!"
Before the people entered the hall, the people who were drinking in the hall heard it, and Wang Shan felt very shameless when he saw that his subordinates were so unruly in front of the two sons.
His face sank, and he snorted coldly: "What kind of system is it that you are flustered, do you know the rules in front of the nobles?"
And how many times have I told you, don't call it a king, we're not thieves, we want to call a general!"
As he spoke, he explained to Cui Zhihao and Cui Zhihan: "Two sons, this guy was a mountain bandit before, and after being subdued by his subordinates, he always couldn't learn the rules.
However, his subordinates saw that he was still loyal and brave, so they also tolerated him. ”
Although Cui Zhihan was very unaccustomed to it in his heart, he smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not as much red tape in the army as other places." ”
After that, he even picked up a handful of wine and handed it to the entourage next to him, saying, "Give this wine to this warrior." ”
