Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 740 740: Begin (Part 2) [Please vote]

Shen Tang's proposal met with collective opposition as soon as it came out.

This also includes tools that are not good at it.

He knew that Shen Tang liked to use surprise troops, and Cun Shancheng was deceived by her cunning tactics. Although the Art of War also says: Therefore, those who are good at making surprises are as endless as heaven and earth, and as endless as rivers and seas. But it also shows that this person likes to take the wrong approach and has a radical and bold personality.

Qibing, behind the high returns are high risks. This move is like walking on a high-altitude rope. If you are not careful, you will fall to pieces!

Chu Yao persuaded him gently, first confirming that Shen Tang's idea was indeed unconventional and very bold, but he also pointed out the problem: "We are not familiar with the laws of the Miao River's flood season. If the river water rises rapidly when sending troops, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."

The key is that my own water quality is not very good.

It's just that if you dig it into the water a few times, you won't drown.

If they choose Shen Tang's plan, they will not be fighting the enemy, but going to the gambling table to compete with God.

With the debuff Kang Jishou, it’s better not to use it.

Be steady and don't waver!

Jiang Sheng, Xun Zhen and others also nodded in agreement with Chu Yao.

At this time, Luan Xin keenly noticed that Gu Chi was silent, and couldn't help but frown slightly - I wonder if Gu Chi didn't want to make his lord unhappy by openly objecting, or did he keep silent after hearing his lord's heart? Either way, it's somewhat suspicious.

Shen Tang waited patiently for them to finish speaking, then stood up expressionlessly, borrowed Chu Yao's sword from the nearest Chu Yao, and unsheathed the sword with a swipe. Xie Qi's face darkened in response, and he felt anxious in his heart. He had worked under Zheng Qiao for so many years. Whenever the other party disagreed, he would draw his sword and kill those who disagreed, leaving an infinite shadow on the young minds of the workers.

This new lord...

I've never heard of her being known for being violent.

Xie Qi reluctantly resisted the urge to run away.

"My method is different from what you think."

Xie Qi's worried attack didn't happen. Shen Tang used a little skill with his wrist, and the long sword turned into a white light in the air. After a muffled sound, it sank into a wooden pillar extremely smoothly. Half of the sword is inside the wooden pillar, and half of the sword is exposed outside the wooden pillar.

He stretched out his fingers and flicked the sword.

Said: "Well, that's it."

Of course she knew that flood season was dangerous. If a group of poor swimmers were unlucky enough to encounter a suddenly swollen river and be washed away without even seeing the enemy's back, it would be a huge loss. Therefore, Shen Tang never thought of marching into the water.

"Take Yuanyuan as an example. It is very easy to drive weapons into the stone wall on the river bank. We used the weapons to make a temporary plank road and walked all the way. The Miaojiang River is in the flood season, and the enemy should know this better than us. Therefore, here Even if there are eyes and ears watching everywhere, it is not as close as elsewhere. The stone wall on the river bank will be the most natural bunker, and the movement of the river can also cover up our movements."

Worried about the surge in Miaojiang River in a short period of time?

Just place it higher.

"By the way, you don't need to bring too many people with you on this trip."

Shen Tang did not intend to use a large force to bypass the rear. The target was too big and could easily arouse the enemy's alert. Moreover, the temporary plank road was too crude and rough. It would require a certain amount of skill to pass through, and ordinary soldiers might not be able to do it. This requires that they must be elite!

"In this way, attack from the front and back, and win the battle quickly!"

All warriors use right combination to win by surprise.

And Shen Tang likes to have confident Qi soldiers!

She looked around at everyone: "What do you think?"

Chu Yao and others thought and discussed, and finally nodded.

"This is feasible and wonderful."

After the plan is finalized, it is then determined how to arrange the two groups of people and who will lead them. But before the topic even started, Shen Tang raised his hand early and said enthusiastically: "Let me lead the Qi soldiers all the way. Yuan Yuan will lead the troops and fight head-on!"

She made Wei Shou's arrangements clear in a few words.

As the saying goes, "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and my lord is going to waste time on the battlefield." These are inevitable and unstoppable things. Chu Yao and others naturally have no objections. The most important thing is that our top combat power is only the Lord and Wei Shou. At this time, the troops are divided into two groups to attack the enemy. Without the top combat power to lead the team, it will be difficult to boost morale and unnecessary battle losses will be increased.

But Xie Qi was obviously facing this situation for the first time.

He has something to say!

It's just that he was naturally tactful and couldn't speak when everyone had no objections. He had to suppress his emotions and lowered his voice to ask Ning Yan: "...As the saying goes, 'A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall.' The situation on the frontline is changing rapidly. It seems that the Lord is taking risks himself. ...It doesn’t seem appropriate, right? Don’t Tunan give me some advice?”

My lord, she is still a literary scholar.

But as soon as these words came out, Ning Yan looked at the thankless vessel with a somewhat strange look. She also lowered her voice and said: "Have you never heard of the sixteenth-grade high-level craftsman under Zheng Qiao's account...remember his name is Jiang Ao De, who killed it with his own hands?"

Xie Qi: "Of course I have heard of Jiang Ao's death."

According to the news he heard, Jiang Ao, a reckless man, seriously underestimated his opponent because of his arrogance. After a long and hard battle, he was unable to defeat two fifteenth-level juniors from the coalition. He was restrained by two people and finally beheaded by one of the young men.

Listen——

A sixteenth-level senior officer was beheaded by a fifteenth-level junior officer!

Zheng Qiao almost overturned the palace after receiving the news. Xie Qi very wisely took a few days' sick leave to avoid this lunatic. At the same time, he did not forget to despise Jiang Ao, a big parallel importer. Those who are promoted through the back door are indeed not as reliable as those who are promoted through down-to-earth methods.

"But what does this have to do with my lord taking risks?"

It’s not that Xie Qi’s imagination is not big enough, it’s because Shen Tang’s intelligence is very normal. In addition, she dislikes wearing the Wen Xin Monogram and the Wu Dan Tiger Talisman at the same time. Therefore, in Xie Qi's view, his lord was a literary scholar whose rank was lower than his own, with an elegant and gentle personality, yet still resolute and resolute.

As for other rumors, Xie Qi had vaguely heard of them, but he always felt that the rumors were distorted, so he didn't take them seriously.

Ning Yan said: "Jiang Ao was killed by my lord."

Xie Qi's CPU almost couldn't turn around. He suddenly raised his head to look at Shen Tang, then lowered his head and asked: "But isn't the lord a literary scholar? Rumor has it that he is a military commander."

Ning Yan asked, "This is not a conflict."

Thank you: "..."

An outrageous guess suddenly popped into his mind.

"Cultivation in literature, culture and martial arts?"

Ning Yan nodded slowly: "Yes."

Thank you: "..."

He tried to find any trace of joking on Ning Yan's face, but of course he couldn't find it. Xie Qi almost lost his temper. The last lord was a lunatic, and the new lord seems to be a fool. Is it so difficult to find a normal person?

However, even though he was full of complaints, he could not put it into words. In the end, he could only say: "If, if this is the case... even if you think about it, some common sense cannot be fully trusted."

At the end of the meeting, the final plan was basically finalized.

Shen Tang and others led the most elite 500 soldiers from the river bank to the enemy's rear, and joined forces with the frontal troops of Commander Wei Shou to attack the enemy. It was left to Chu Yao to select the elites, prepare the materials needed to build the plank road, and arrange dry food for two days.

Chu Yao only took half a day to prepare.

Because they had to build a temporary plank road while marching, Shen Tang's surprise army would take longer than normal. Before it gets dark, smoke rises from Cunshan City. The five hundred people had enough to eat and drink, and after a good night's sleep, they were full of energy.

Shen Tang and Xun Ding got on the mules (horses) at the same time.

Xun Zhen did not accompany him. He told his son sternly: "Yong'an, remember to protect your lord and yourself."

Xun Ding grinned: "Father, don't worry!"

Seeing that his old father was serious because of the address, he smiled and changed his words: "General Xun Ding, please remember the military advisor's instructions."

Xun Zhen said: "Go."

Everyone saluted: "I wish you good luck in martial arts as you go."

Shen Tang laughed cheerfully and said, "Wait for my triumphant return!"

Zheng Qiao's troops were always paying attention to Shen Tang's actions. At dusk that day, they received news that hundreds of people had left Cunshan City. When the general heard the news, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly asked: "Have you found out where they are going?"

The messenger said: "Go west."

The general thought that Shen Tang's actions were directed at him, but he was confused when he heard the messenger's reply. Why is the other person facing the opposite direction? The target is not yourself. He asked again: "Where is Cunshan City? Is there any other news?"

The messenger replied: "Everything is the same as before."

I went back to Cunshan City twice a day to report on the situation, and each time the city gates were closed. They are on high alert, and even raptors with high-altitude reconnaissance capabilities cannot get too close. The scout's valor totem cannot be too far away from its owner, and the distance is limited, so it is difficult to find valuable information. After the general heard this, he paced back and forth in the camp with his hands behind his back, looking anxious.

Shen Tang's place was too quiet, unnaturally quiet.

Cunshan City was captured but the troops stood still, unable to restrain Zheng Qiao's troops at all. This strategically important area lost the significance of attacking. The general knew that this was impossible. Shen Tang and his group would definitely take action, but he didn't know when or how they would take action. So, he waved his hand and said: "Explore again and report again! Send someone to keep an eye on the movements of those hundreds of people."

At nightfall, the general received the second report.

Those hundreds of people crossed the river and left.

general:"???"

His expression was distorted for a moment, and his voice rose out of control: "What? Crossed the river and left? Are you sure you crossed the river and left?"

The messenger had to repeat it again.

After Cunshan City was Shen Tang's territory, it was difficult for the scouts sent out to cross. They could only take advantage of the bird of prey's high altitude to see that the hundreds of people were indeed heading towards the west bank of the Miaojiang River. Coupled with the limited distance and the obstruction of high mountains and cliffs on both sides of the river bank, more information could not be found. During this period, two scouts were exposed and caught by enemy patrols. One was killed and the other injured.

The valiant totem scouts with investigative capabilities were very valuable, and they were worried that the rest would also be caught, so they could only rush back.

The general twirled his beard, and his staff also lowered their eyes in thought.

The general muttered: "What are these hundreds of people planning to do?"

One person asked: "You would never think of going down the river to support the front line? But what role can a mere five hundred people do?"

Another person said: "Maybe he came for us?"

Immediately afterwards, he was mercilessly ridiculed: "In two or three days, the Miao River will surge. Isn't going into the water at this time a court of death? Even if they are coming for us, can't the scouts find it? These hundreds of people may be a cover-up for the enemy." "

After all, this operation is really confusing.

The general also had this thought in his mind: "Explore again and report again!"

At the same time, Shen Tang and others transformed into goats and flexibly shuttled on the vertical and steep stone walls. Every time a weak light of martial energy flashed, a wooden stick was driven into the stone wall. To ensure safety, everyone has a rope tied around their waist, and the other end of the rope is a loop. This ring can be clicked into the wooden stick nailed into the stone wall, and even if the foot slips and falls into the water, it will not be easily washed away.

Hundreds of people formed a line on the stone wall.

Those with abundant martial energy and high level of martial courage clear the way in front, while those with weaker strength follow behind. At the beginning, the soldiers were not familiar with it, and their feet felt weak when they saw the rolling river water under their feet. Once you gain some proficiency, you can stabilize your center of gravity and move forward flexibly on the stone wall.

"Wangchao, are you okay?" Shen Tang walked quickly. When he stopped and waited, he heard a slight cough covered by the river water.

They were now unable to use scouts for reconnaissance to avoid exposing their targets, but they needed to be alert to the enemy's whereabouts at all times, so Gu Chi's way of being a scribe became the only option. Gu Chi looked weak, but in fact he was stepping on the wooden stick steadily and holding on to the wall with one hand.

He waved his hand towards Shen Tang in the distance, indicating that he was fine. When the river wind blew, an uncontrollable cough escaped from his throat.

"You don't look good." Shen Tang turned back.

It took Gu Chi a while to calm down his coughing, and his pale cheeks gained a bit of color as a result: "The river water is a bit dazzling from this position... Don't worry, my lord, you will be fine soon."

After his family was wiped out, he was hunted down by Tao Yan's old men, and he barely managed to save his life by jumping into the river. Although I am not afraid of water, I still feel uncomfortable when seeing similar scenes.

At this time, Bai Su came after hearing the news.

"My lord, leave the military advisor to the general."

"Okay, give him a hand to prevent him from slipping into the water. If the situation goes bad, you can carry him."

After Shen Tang gave the instructions, he went back and continued working.

Gu Chi was about to say that business was important and he didn't need to worry about himself. Bai Su wrapped the other end of the rope around his waist tightly around his wrist and tied a tight knot: "In this way, even if the military advisor falls, the final general I will drag you up too.”

Is the bottom plate more stable between the literary scholar and the brave warrior?

Bai Su is full of confidence, she will definitely not be able to fall.

Gu Chi thought about the scene where he accidentally fell into the water, his head was washed down by the river, and Bai Su lifted himself up from above, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. This plot could be written into a storybook.

Another day passed in the blink of an eye, and the night fell.

Wei Shou ordered the whole camp to light a fire for cooking.

"Are you all full?"

The soldiers said in unison: "I'm full."

"We are full this time, but we are not eating well enough. If we want to eat well, have fat meat to eat, fine wine to drink, money to spend, and clothes to wear, we must perform meritorious service! How to perform meritorious service? Kill the enemy's Lair! They are enemies, and they are our military achievements!" Wei Shou pointed the rose gold pink ax in his hand and shouted in the direction of the enemy, "Did you hear that?"

The soldiers shouted in unison, the sound filling the sky.

"Wait, let's go!"
