When Cheng Wanwan woke up the next day, he heard about the raid by Xirong Kingdom last night.
When the two countries are at war, if they confront each other head-on, no matter whether they win or lose, death is inevitable. That's why there is an ancient poem saying, "How long will it take to fight on the battlefield..."
The Xirong cavalry is inherently strong, and even if they are faced with the elite soldiers of Dayu Kingdom, they may not have a chance of winning. Nowadays, most of Dayu Kingdom's soldiers are new soldiers. Even if there are bombs as weapons, it is not a sure-win strategy...
In addition, the Xirong Kingdom used the old and weak women and children of the Yue clan as human shields, so the advantage of the bomb was suppressed somewhat.
"There are not many bombs left in the warehouse." He Xiao said, "Based on the current usage, if there are five more wars on the scale of last night, the bombs will be exhausted."
Although Daewoo is rich in fireworks and firecrackers, the gunpowder made from all the raw materials combined is difficult to supply for such a large war.
Cheng Wanwan paused and said, "Actually, Princess Taiping hid a large amount of gunpowder and weapons in a small village on the border between the two countries..."
There are countless explosive weapons in her mall, but she lacks an excuse to use them openly.
Princess Taiping took out these things in the name of the princess in order for her group to escape and die, hoping to make more people remember Princess Taiping...
He Xiao's eyes lit up: "Where?"
"The princess only told me the approximate direction. I have to go to the small village and search carefully." Cheng Wanwan said thoughtfully, "Although bombs are a trump card, bombs alone may not necessarily win. Marching Fighting mainly depends on strategy and good tactics, so that you can defeat the Xirong soldiers at the minimum cost."
As soon as she finished speaking, a group of people came to the door of the tent.
This group of people was headed by Pang Jie and Li Jian, followed by students from Xiao Qin University Hall.
They were the second generation of officials in the capital. They had a special status and no power, but they decided to come to the battlefield to join in the fun... The hussar general did not arrange for them to go to the battlefield, but asked them to learn strategies from the military adviser.
But Dayu State suffered a disastrous defeat last night. Several military advisors had been discussing all morning but could not come up with any strategy, so they withdrew to discuss among themselves, and finally heard Cheng Wanwan's words.
In their opinion, Mrs. Sui was smarter and much better than those Lao Shizi military advisors.
Pang Jie cupped his hands and said, "Please sir, please give me some advice."
Cheng Wanwan looked at them with relief in his eyes.
At first, she looked down upon these playboys, but she did not expect that after a series of events, these second-generation ancestors grew up rapidly.
Whether it is to save the country or to save her, it shows that they are brave.
She said: "Then you will first follow me to find the explosives and weapons that Princess Taiping has hidden in the small mountain village."
Pang Jie and others nodded repeatedly.
He Xiao led 500 people to follow him.
This small village is located in a deep mountain at the junction of Dayu Kingdom and Xirong Kingdom. The people here all moved in from a war-torn place. After living in the deep mountains, no matter how wars are fought outside, they will not be affected. Generation after generation they , thrive and live peacefully.
Cheng Wanwan randomly selected a relatively nearby address on the map.
She had to find a secret cave, hide the things secretly, and then lead others to discover...
"Pang Jie, take 20 people over there, Li Jian, you guys go to the west and have a look." She ordered, "He Xiao, take people to search the village all over... I'm tired. I’ll wait for you right here.”
As a woman in her late forties, she had been following a group of men for such a long time. It was normal for her to get tired. Everyone was considerate of her and allowed her to rest temporarily in the yard of a farmer's house.
Once everyone left, she opened her mouth to push Gu Leng and Gu Bing away, and then quickly entered the mountains...
The small village was not that big. He Xiao and his people searched carefully three times, but still found nothing. He could only turn around and ask Cheng Wanwan.
But he saw Cheng Wanwan sitting in the yard covered in dirt, looking extremely embarrassed.
"Ahem, I accidentally fell down just now." She lied without blinking, "Since it's not in the village, it might be hidden in the mountains. How about going to the mountains to look for it again?"
He Xiao also had this intention and immediately led people up the mountain.
A group of several hundred people found it from dawn to dusk. Finally, they found a large amount of gunpowder and muskets in a cave in the mountains.
This gunpowder smells stronger, and a small one is estimated to be five to ten times more powerful than the Dayu bomb.
The muskets in the cave are not made of bamboo tubes, but iron tools, which are very heavy to hold in the hand. Hundreds of boxes and cages are filled with muskets of the same standard. It is estimated that there are 20,000 muskets, which can be equipped with one for each elite soldier. …
"Can the Xirong Kingdom have so many iron tools?" Pang Jie looked in disbelief, "This iron seems to be even more sophisticated than the Dayu Kingdom."
"When Princess Taiping got married, she brought many blacksmiths to Xirong. The total amount of ironware accumulated over the years may indeed be this much." Li Jian turned back to look at Cheng Wanwan, "It should be Mrs. Sui who provided the gunpowder formula and musket blueprints. Taiping Only a princess can find someone to make it."
"Recipes and blueprints are important, but it is obviously more difficult to make so many weapons under the nose of King Xirong and arrange for people to be sent back to Dayu." Cheng Wanwan said, "Bring everything back to the station first, No delay.”
Fortunately, there were enough people and cars arranged, and hundreds of cars were packed to the brim.
After returning to the camp, it was already midnight.
The lights in the main camp tent were still on, and several generals and military advisors could be heard talking. Although their voices were full of exhaustion, no one was willing to rest.
This time, the Dayu Kingdom recruited 350,000 troops. With so many people resisting Xirong, if they still lost, then these generals would be the sinners of the Dayu Kingdom, and they could only die to apologize.
"Arrange 100,000 people to go around this mountain, and surprise someone from behind Xirong." The cavalry general said solemnly, "While Xirong's rear is lost, we will gather the remaining 250,000 people to attack fiercely, and we will definitely capture the land in front of us. …”
He Xiao pursed his lips: "Although this can improve the winning rate, the casualties are immeasurable..."
"If you want to win this battle, casualties are inevitable." General Yunhui said, "If death can wash away the shame of Dayu, if death can repel the Xirong soldiers, it will be a good strategy."
Everyone in the tent was silent.
If you don't want to face them head-on, you can only use this move to divide the Xirong soldiers to a certain degree of victory. Otherwise, they will be defeated like a mountain and the land may not be able to be defended.
"Death is the last desperate road. Are we at a dead end now?"
A cold voice came, and everyone looked up and saw Cheng Wanwan walking into the camp.
In the past, if a woman entered the military camp, she would be scolded and kicked out by everyone present.
But this person is Mrs. Sui.
It is said that more than a hundred of them were able to escape from Xirong Palace because of Madam Sui's strategy. In addition, Madam Sui was the first to develop the bomb that is now regarded as her trump card, and then presented it to the court by her son. , if it weren’t for the bomb, they would have lost even more miserably...
Cheng Wanwan looked at the people in front of him: "If you sacrifice your life to win the war, what's the point of winning? Those young soldiers outside are all children raised by their parents. They are also the fathers of many children. They are the important members of the family. If they are the pillars of the family, if they die, the family will be destroyed. I want to ask, if your son is among them, can you say such a sentence so easily?"
General Yunhui and Cheng Wanwan looked at each other: "Mrs. Sui is worried about her son..."
"No." Cheng Wanwan interrupted him directly, "If I sacrifice my four sons, I can exchange for the prosperity and peace of Dayu Kingdom. I will never stop my sons from sacrificing their lives for the country. But the reality is that it is not only the sacrifice of four Not one person, but four thousand, forty thousand, one hundred and forty thousand people... or even more... There is obviously a better way."
When she said this, General Hussar's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mrs. Sui, please speak quickly."
