Chapter 160 The Best Candidate
"Can we use the gourd bomb to blow up the partition wall of the maze? In this way, we don't need to go around the maze and can directly rush into their main camp and annihilate them there?" Xu Rong said, pointing to the middle road.
"no……"
Bai Xin and Li Ze objected almost at the same time. Although they did not participate in their discussion, they also listened to their analysis with their ears perked up.
After hearing what they said, everyone looked at them with inquiring eyes.
"Their walls are made of rocks and are very thick. The gourd bombs have a weak explosive power and one or two of them are not enough to blow them open. If we want to blow up the road, we need a lot of them, which is not realistic!"
Li Ze told them that unless they had cannons, they could just plow the land. Otherwise, this kind of low-power bomb could injure people, but it would be far from enough to blow up walls.
Bai Xin received Ye Qi's warning look and kept silent consciously, letting Li Ze talk to them.
In the morning, Ye Qi criticized her for going to rescue the picture album during yesterday's strong wind and warned her not to get involved in future matters, lest she would be tempted to go along again.
She could only sit obediently in the tent and be an obedient little mute.
When everyone heard this, they all nodded in understanding, because the gourd bomb was made by the two of them and they naturally knew how powerful it was.
For a moment, no one could figure out what was going on. They could only look at the model on the sand table and continue to think in silence.
"Since the gourd bomb can't blow up the wall, just blow up people!" Ye Qi's cold and calm voice came.
Everyone looked at him at the same time with expectant eyes, thinking that the general must have thought of some solution.
"Xu Rongzhongshu, starting tomorrow, you will lead your troops up the mountain every night to prepare the rocks that need to be moved. When you launch a unified attack, throw the rocks down from the mountain from the east and west sides of them. When they lose their fighting power, you will descend from the mountain and strangle them, making it impossible for them to resist."
"Yes!" The two men received the order and were a little excited: "Okay, then we will drop from the sky and kill them by surprise."
"Qian Ying, Chen Qiyun, the two of you will enter the maze from the two routes of the canyon. After you meet up with Xu Rong and Zhong Shu, attack their formation together."
"Yes!" The two men obeyed.
"However, once we enter the maze and get lost, it will take time to reunite. If their main camp is alerted too early, it will be disadvantageous to us!"
Chen Qiyun raised questions at this time.
"That's fine. The flag bearers and drummers will all go up to the top of the mountain together and ambush in four directions in advance. Once they receive the signal, they will beat the drums and wave the flags to command the army to move forward. In this way, the army will not lose its way!"
Ye Qi explained to them that now that they had a map of positions, they could conduct drills in the army in advance. When the time came, once their army entered the maze, they could follow the drum beats and move the flags, so they would not be groping around blindly.
"So, very good!"
Everyone was extremely excited when they heard this. Now, with guidance, they wouldn't have to worry about getting lost.
Bai Xin rested his chin on the table, staring at Ye Qi with burning eyes. This guy had already thought of a countermeasure and prepared for the attack overnight.
"As for their retreat..." Ye Qi pondered for a moment: "After the four of you break through the main camp's defense line, Zhong Shu, you should not linger in the battle, but go directly to their retreat to prevent them from retreating and resist their reinforcements!"
"Yes!" Zhong Shu accepted the order.
But after Ye Qi finished speaking, he frowned, thinking that this method was too slow. Secondly, if a war broke out, the situation on the scene would be unclear. If Zhong Shu failed to arrive in time, it would inevitably be a hidden danger.
"General, I'm afraid it's a bit risky to let Lieutenant General Zhong break out of their main camp. I think I can lead the troops tomorrow, bypass the moat, sneak into their rear and ambush them. Once the battle starts, we will reappear. In this way, we can attack them from both sides!"
Li Chengyun stepped forward and bowed.
Bai Xin looked at Li Chengyun, who still had one ear covered, and thought he was cute and funny.
Ye Qi shook his head and said, "This detour is long and will take five days. We are in their territory and our rear supplies of food and grass will not be able to keep up. This will weaken your combat capability. Moreover, if so many people enter in advance, they will easily discover us. This method is not acceptable!"
Just when everyone was scratching their heads, Bai Xin thought about it, pulled Li Ze beside her, and Li Ze whispered something to her. Li Ze looked up at her and gave her a thumbs up.
Then Li Ze stepped forward and bowed, "General, may I say a few words?"
Ye Qi glanced at him, then glanced at Bai Xin who was pretending to be stupid in front of the desk, and lowered his eyes helplessly. He knew that it must be this girl's idea.
"Of course!" He still wanted to hear what this girl thought.
Li Ze got Ye Qi's approval and continued.
"General, you are worried about the enemy's retreat. In fact, you can send troops to ambush on the top of the mountain directly ahead. The mountains are continuous, so it is not difficult to cross from one mountain to another."
"On the eve of the battle, we will descend again and bury sweet potato mines in the path of their reinforcements in advance. Once they step into the minefield, their personnel will be injured. By then, they will not be able to react in time, which will slow down the speed of their reinforcements."
"Even if they react, our people will have already ambushed them in the rear and used gourd bullets to snipe them. If their remaining troops fight us again, the front army should have occupied the maze. Then we can lure the enemy deeper and catch them in a trap."
"In this way, we won't have to worry anymore!" When everyone heard this, they all thought that this was feasible.
"However, except for Xu Rong and Zhong Shu who have practiced rock climbing and can lead troops independently, we don't have any generals who can lead rock climbing, let alone soldiers who can load and bury sweet potato mines and use gourd bombs."
At this time, Mo Tian raised his doubts, and Ye Qi remained silent. The method was good, but there was no one who could lead the rock climbing with bombs right now.
"General, from today on, I will lead the soldiers to practice hard day and night. I believe they will be able to learn something or two." One-eared Li Chengyun stepped forward and bowed.
"You are injured, and it will take more than a day or two to learn how to bury sweet potato mines. If you are not absolutely sure, don't take the risk!" Ye Qi objected.
"General, how about letting Li Ze lead them there?" Bai Xin couldn't help but say while sitting at the desk.
"No!"
Ye Qi looked at her and glared at her slightly. This girl was disobedient and interrupted again. Li Ze wanted to stay by her side and protect her.
"General, this matter is of great importance. Li Ze is the best candidate. I am in the camp with other defenders, so there will be no problem!" Bai Xin knew his concerns, but she was in the camp with so many people, so there was no need to be afraid.
There is no shortage of people in his army, but now they lack people who can climb rocks and use bombs. It is difficult to train them in a short time, so she can rest assured if Li Ze goes. Of course, it would be best if she could go in person!
But it's just something to think about.
