"I want to destroy Li Chengba's Black Armored Army! But it's too difficult with just these 600 Hutou Camp soldiers."
In the battle outside the Northeast Gate just now, Yang Ying knew clearly that although the Hutou Camp was extremely powerful, it was impossible to defeat Li Chengba's Black Armored Army head-on, so he had to use clever tactics.
After ordering Cheng Dong to eliminate Li Chengba's bluffing soldiers, Yang Ying led the remaining soldiers outside Qianjing, thinking rapidly about all possible ways to defeat the Black Armored Army: Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty Six strategies, fire attack, water flooding and more!
Soon, Yang Ying suddenly thought of a way: fire attack.
Because Yang Ying has a secret that no one else knows: the Yang family where he lives naturally has its own fields and industries in his hometown of Hongzhou, but there is not much industry in the capital. In order to make profits, the Yang family opened a business in Qianjing. A fireworks workshop.
Stores that usually sell fireworks and firecrackers are naturally in the city, but the raw materials for making fireworks and firecrackers are very dangerous, so they dare not store them in Qianjing City. Instead, they are stored in a village called Xiaochen Village outside Qianjing City. Li, about ten miles away from Qianjing.
"But even if the Black Armor Army comes after them, how can they be lured to Xiaochen Village? Although there are black fires, unlike Huo Zha Yao in later generations, it is difficult for fireworks and firecrackers to have such powerful lethality?"
"But!" Yang Ying looked at the armor on the Hutou Camp soldiers next to him and thought to himself, "I don't need such a powerful lethality!"
But now I am afraid that Li Chengba will not lead his army to pursue him!
"Won't!"
When Yang Ying thought of Li Chengba, he came to the conclusion without any hesitation: It was hard for others to say, but Li Chengba would definitely send someone here because all the black armored soldiers he deployed outside the Northeast Gate were wiped out.
Although they failed outnumbered, they were his most elite black-armored troops!
Li Chengba would not allow a team with greater combat effectiveness than his Black Armored Army to exist, so he must choose to defeat Hutou Camp. This is called facing difficulties.
It was precisely because of this character that Li Chengba chose to "let go" Emperor Joan of Arc before.
"Gao Qichuan obeys the order!"
"The end will be here."
"Immediately divide the team into two. You lead five hundred soldiers to lure the enemy. Remember, don't engage them in battle, let alone fight them head-on, but don't let them escape either."
"Got the order!"
Gao Qichuan took the general's order. Although he was full of doubts, he didn't hesitate much.
"The remaining one hundred people, follow me. Take off your heavy armor immediately. Except for weapons and dry food, all other burdens will be discarded."
Abandoning the heavy armor that made up most of their combat strength?
Although the soldiers of Hutou Camp hesitated, they still took off their heavy armor as ordered.
Yang Ying led a hundred soldiers and said to Gao Qichuan again: "Remember, you must follow the direction we are heading to lure the enemy."
After saying that, Yang Ying led a hundred lightly-armed soldiers forward.
"Moving lightly, does General Huaihua want to lead these more than a hundred soldiers to escape?"
They looked very similar, but after a blink of an eye, Gao Qichuan felt calm: there was no need to worry about this, because the soldiers of Hutou Camp would not follow a general who could only run away.
More than a hundred pieces of armor were dropped in front of him, and Gao Qichuan was reluctant to throw them away, but if other soldiers were to carry them, the load would immediately increase by another fifty or sixty kilograms, which was really too heavy for the soldiers.
Gao Qichuan had no choice but to order the armor on the ground to be packed up and piled on the roadside. But just as he was packing it up, he heard a soldier report: There was a heavily armored army of thousands of people coming from behind.
Gao Qichuan immediately ordered: "Line up."
Five hundred soldiers from the Hutou Battalion immediately lined up and quickly formed a neat team. Everyone had their bows strung and ready to shoot.
"'Stone' flag!"
Gao Qichuan suddenly saw the word "stone" written on the flag carried by the enemy.
"It's actually Shi Baoqing!"
Gao Qichuan's heart sank. Seeing that the enemy was still two miles away from them, he ordered: "Withdraw!"
The words are divided into two parts.
Yang Ying rode a hundred light cavalry and arrived at Xiaochen Village in just a moment.
"Go in, and if anyone is found, he will be arrested alive immediately. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy."
But after rushing into Xiaochen Village, no one was there: the target of these one hundred cavalrymen was too conspicuous, and the people and workers here had already fled.
The journey was smooth, and Yang Ying quickly found the warehouse.
"Don't come here!"
Yang Yingang had someone break open the warehouse door, only to find someone inside holding a firecracker, ready to light a finished giant firecracker at any time.
Yang Ying pointed at the man and shouted, "See clearly who I am!"
"You, are you Master Yang Ying?"
"As long as you recognize me, please put out the fire quickly."
The man immediately put out the fire.
"Not bad!" Yang Ying admired: "Everyone has run away, but you are the only one who is still here, and you actually want to die together with these firecrackers."
"The master asked me to take charge of the warehouse. I can't let the warehouse fall into other people's hands, and I can't let others rob it."
"what's your name?"
"My name is Yang Sheng."
"Yang Sheng, let me ask you, how many finished firecrackers are there and how many black fire raw materials are there?"
"There are 53,600 fireworks in the sky, 5,423 large firecrackers... and there are no less than 3,000 kilograms of black fire raw materials."
As expected, Yang Sheng told all the models and quantities at once.
"Okay." Yang Ying praised again in his heart: "The business is really familiar."
"Open all the Blackfire ingredients and give them to the people I brought."
Yang Sheng suddenly said strangely: "Master, are you taking away the raw materials of black fire to make people angry?"
"It's fine if you know it yourself, don't let outsiders know."
Yang Ying and his group rushed over. No one could understand their momentum, so there was no need to hide it.
Yang Sheng said: "If the young master wants to use it to irritate people, he can use big bamboo."
Yang Yingyi asked: "Big bamboo?"
"A big firecracker that can be used to set fire to mountains and rocks."
Yang Ying immediately understood what it was. Of course, those things were prohibited by the Daqian court, so any private artillery workshop was not allowed to make them, so they called them big bamboos. Those who understand will understand.
Unexpectedly, the Yang family actually makes these things in private - not surprising, this is a truly huge profit.
"how many?"
"Master, please come with me."
Yang Ying followed Yang Sheng into the warehouse, found a basement door, and walked in. There was a warehouse full of black balls the size of coconuts.
"How powerful is this one?"
"It can create a big pit with a radius of half a foot. If it is a human, it can be killed instantly."
Yang Ying sneered inwardly: Compared with previous lives, this power is quite small, but in this era it is already considered a divine weapon.
