Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

In a blink of an eye, it was October, and the dozens of feet wide canal blocked the way of the Eastern Expedition Army. On the opposite side of the river, the Dongguo Linjiang City was on the opposite side of the river. Qilian City had hoarded 200,000 troops in Linjiang City. If they rush to cross, the army will come out in full force, and they may be killed by them before they go ashore. This situation is extremely unfavorable for the army, and the imposing East Expedition Army has to stop temporarily.

"There are two problems now, one is that we don't have a boat and we can't cross the river, and the other is that even if we build a boat to cross the river, the army of the Eastern Kingdom on the bank will kill us aggressively. If these two problems are not solved, we will It's hard to walk."

In the handsome tent, brothers Yan Shengrui and Sikong Tam are leading the generals of the two countries to discuss the countermeasures intensively, while Ling Jingxuan is sitting on the side and studying the geographical situation on both sides of the strait on the sand table, trying to find out from it that the army can rush to cross, and try to do as much as possible. To minimize casualties, Xue Wuyang stayed by his side, Yan Xiaobei had already gone back when he got the news of the little bun, and the little bun with the Eagles back to Buming City was temporarily suspended for some reason. I decided to go back to the capital with Yan Xiaobei first, and I believe that I will come to the army soon.

"I wonder if the river will freeze when it's colder?"

Sikong Hao put his arms on his chest. Generally, many rivers in the Western Kingdom will freeze around December. If the Grand Canal in the Eastern Kingdom is also frozen, maybe they will be able to pass, even if the enemy is waiting on the opposite bank. , they can also have a fighting force.

"It's not realistic to freeze. A few people were fine in the past. Our two armies combined are nearly a million troops. Even if the river is frozen, it can't bear such a heavy weight. A few people are similar, but if there are a few people, the East The country has assembled another 200,000 troops to wait for us on the opposite side, not to mention the warm climate in the east country, which is not as big as the temperature difference between the north and the south of Qingxi and the west, and it is still unknown whether it will freeze or not. If you don't move forward, I'm afraid the military will not be stable."

Yan Chengrui rejected his proposal without even thinking about it. Qilian City was only able to gather 200,000 troops in one city because of its natural dangers. .

"Then the soldiers can only build ships overnight?"

Raising his eyebrows, Sikong Hao looked back and forth at Sikong Tam and Yan Shengrui. The two armies have been fighting together for several months, and they have long since merged into one army.

"Well, I'm afraid that's the only way."

Yan Shengrui's expression was also very heavy. On the way, they had gone through so many hardships, and destroyed so many cities, that a canal blocked it for no reason.

"I think it's time to ask our military advisor's opinion?"

Sikong Jin looked at Ling Jingxuan with a point, and everyone followed his line of sight, only to see that he had been deducing something on the sand table, who had been silent for so long, even people who didn't know him would You know, he never does anything superfluous. Looking at his constant deductions, he must have come up with a plan, right?

Chapter 746 The rush plan, the arrogant dumpling

"Did you think of something?"

Yan Shengrui walked over and closed the cloak on his body. The weather in Dongguo was warm, but it was a little cooler in October. The events of a few months ago had been circling in their hearts, and their father and son had begun to pay attention to his cold protection and warmth. , for fear that he would catch a cold again and would not wake up.

"It can be said that I have thought of it, or I have not thought of it. The current situation is a dead end. It is difficult to crack it according to ordinary methods, and it can only be used."

Shaking his head, Ling Jingxuan's rare serious expression, God loves Dongguo too much, it's not a matter of a gate of heaven, and now there is a grand canal. In the age of cold weapons, where there was no such thing as a cold weapon, rushing to cross the Grand Canal would undoubtedly be a death sentence. No amount of soldiers would be able to fill that leak, unless the explosive pack was reactivated, and this time, the giant bronze bird could not be used.

"That? You mean... explosive packs?"

Yan Shengrui frowned, but the other people's eyes lit up as if they saw hope. If there was that, they wouldn't have to fight in close quarters, and they would be able to capture Linjiang City with almost no effort, but... they don't have no explosive packs anymore. ? Thinking of this, everyone's eyes darkened again. Since the princess fell, the prince has never let him make explosive packs, and only the princess can make explosive packs.

"Yes."

Ling Jingxuan nodded, Yan Shengrui frowned without thinking, "No, it's too much work to make explosive packs, I'd rather work harder than make you too tired."

No victory is more important than him, and he doesn't want to make him work too hard, and in the end... in short, no!

"Who told you that I can only do it myself?"

Ling Jingxuan laughed angrily. Although he was worried that the method of making the explosive pack would be leaked, he could teach Qin Muyan and them that they were all trustworthy.

"you sure?"

If so, you can try it.

When did he lose any credit at all? Ling Jingxuan really didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "Yes and yes, come over here."

After beckoning the generals to surround him, Ling Jingxuan picked up a stick and drew a clear river channel on the sand table, and placed the city, the army, and the surrounding mountains on both sides before saying: "Within three days, I will have people to Explosive packs are made, but it is a huge problem to accurately deliver them ashore or throw them directly into the city, so I need everyone's assistance. First of all, Sheng Rui, Prince Hao, within three days, you will have your soldiers build ten large ships. The surrounding area should be packed with scarecrows to prevent the enemy's bows and arrows from attacking.

There is also a place to build a cabin that can accommodate hundreds of people, and a catapult is placed in the middle of the scarecrow on the deck. Secondly, I will let people set the explosive pack to explode after 10 breaths after ignition. The trainer will deliver the explosive packs within ten breaths. The time must be accurate, and there can be no mistakes in the slightest. Otherwise, we will be the casualties. It is best to cross the river before dawn or at night. In this way, our boat can get closer and throw more accurately. Of course, the other soldiers can't be idle, and make as many bamboo rafts as possible. When we arrived on the other side, we tied all the bamboo rafts together with iron chains. The explosive packs can only be regarded as opening the way for everyone. The real battle is our soldiers. The bamboo rafts connected together are equivalent to land. We have to fight. It is also more convenient. Don't forget that the enemy has only 200,000 troops, and we have an absolute advantage in numbers. "

The explosive packs are just opening the way. The soldiers who are really fighting are the soldiers. He has observed that the water flow of the Grand Canal in front of them is not very turbulent. On the flat ground, their problems will be solved easily. Many operations have to be completed on the water. This is undoubtedly a test of the soldiers' cooperation and individual ability, as well as the generals' ability to command. In the end, it is up to them to succeed. own.

"Bamboo raft?"

Sikong Hao murmured these words, and quickly converted the number of bamboo rafts needed by a million army in his mind. The rest of the generals were also very cautious, and they were all the same as him. Yan Shengrui looked down at the sand table. As I said, use the method of throwing explosive packs to disrupt the enemy's formation, and then use bamboo rafts to connect them together on the river. The Grand Canal is equivalent to becoming land. It can be tried. The problem is...

"Too many people can sometimes be a hard injury. I think it is enough for us to send 200,000 people to cross the river in the early stage, otherwise the enemy can knock down many of us with a random hack, so we should consider freeing up bamboo first. There is space for battle on the raft, and then we will consider the matter of rushing to cross."

Yan Shengrui put forward his opinion objectively. The power of explosive packs is great, but throwing on the river is too simple. If the enemy has figured out their throwing patterns, they can avoid them in advance, and then quickly gather after the explosive packs are used up. Although the possibility is small, it is not impossible, and they should consider any possibility that exists.

"I agree, and the soldiers in the front row can also wear shields and simply form a defensive long snake formation in front to prevent the enemy's bow and arrow from slamming."

Sikong Hao, who had already thought about it, also put forward his own opinions. Ling Jingxuan has already solved the most difficult part for them, and it is time for them to exert their strengths.

"Since that's the case, let's discuss it first. I'll go to Muyan and Ruhong to discuss the explosive package."

He couldn't help him with the traditional attack. Ling Jingxuan decisively followed Yan Shengrui and turned around to leave the handsome tent. Xue Wuyang originally wanted to follow him, but he thought about what they were talking about just now about the explosive pack, the terrifying power of the explosive pack. It is also known that he did not follow up, lest someone say that he deliberately inquired about the production process of explosive packs, or that when there are different voices in the country in the future, people with intentions have excuses to criticize them.
