But I didn't expect Zhang Kai to echo it.
"Brother Zhao, I think this can be done! Since this chief officer is a master who doesn't let go of the rabbit when he sees it.
Then why don't we make money from both ends? "
These words suddenly opened up everyone's Ren and Du channels, making everyone except Zhao Ming suddenly become excited.
If the monkey just wanted to grab a wave, Zhang Kai just made money from the Outer Mongolians and also made a wave of supplies from Zhang Li. Isn't it just a profit from both ends?
"Yes! Mr. Zhao, I think Brother Zhang is right. We can definitely have a small-scale encounter with the Outer Mongolians.
In this way, we have justified military exploits, and we can also ask for a lot of supplies from Chief Zhang.
By then the food will be available and the ammunition problem will be solved. "
Zhang He also felt that this statement was very reasonable and quickly agreed. Even Wang Er, who was silent on one side, felt that what they said was very reasonable.
Zhao Ming, who was receiving all the attention, shook his head.
"We can only do this transaction once. After one time, we brothers can't afford it!"
Seeing that everyone was still a little confused, Zhao Ming continued to add,
"Let me ask you first, do you want to do this kind of deal once and for all, or do you want to keep doing it until Outer Mongolia withdraws its troops?"
"Of course, we can keep doing it as long as we can. Wouldn't it be best for us to withdraw from Outer Mongolia?" Monkey said almost without thinking.
"You think so too?"
Zhao Ming ignored the monkey and turned to look at the others.
No one spoke, and most of them obviously agreed, but Zhang Kai was already a little shaken.
"Brother Zhao, I roughly understand what you mean. Are you worried that after one or two incidents, the Outer Mongols will definitely use this to set up a trap to encircle and annihilate us?"
"right!"
Zhao Ming nodded noncommittally.
"There is a saying in the art of war that soldiers are like water, and the shape of water avoids the real and attacks the weak. But once we plunder the Outer Mongolia escort team again and again, we are the spear that turns this water into reality!
The spear is tangible and has a trajectory. Once it is set up by someone, how many times can we break it? "
"Huh! Brother Zhao, I find that you are really opaque. If I remember correctly, you are a farmer's son? Where did this guy come from so much sophistication?
I realize that I have been marching and fighting for so many years, but you still haven’t seen it through! "
Zhang Kai let out a long breath and finally lay down. He looked at Zhao Ming with burning eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Then what should I do now? I listen to you!"
At this time, everyone understood what he was saying and looked at Zhao Ming one after another. Maybe the monkey was the only one who didn't understand it at all.
What water? What kind of spear? Can you speak human language?
"You can plunder! Twice! We can plunder twice!" Zhao Ming said solemnly.
"So we still have to rob? But why do we have to rob twice?" Zhang Kai frowned.
"Not only twice, I also want the locations and time intervals of these two robberies to be exactly the same!"
Zhao Ming grinned and continued, "So recently I asked the scout brothers to go out more and find a place where their escort team must pass."
"Well...."
Hearing this, everyone was a little confused. You just said that the soldier's image is bad, and now you start to play this trick. Isn't this a fixed routine that someone has figured out?
Three days later, a group of troops were on a wilderness grassland about fifty miles south of Pingqiantun.
Because there is a former herdsmen gathering place near here, and some Outer Mongolian soldiers are now stationed here, so this is the only way for the Outer Mongolian escort team to pass north.
It can also be regarded as a place to rest.
At this time, a team of about 300 people escorted the long team through the wind and snow.
Sheds have been erected in the camp for a long time, with piles of bonfires burning inside, and the fragrant mutton soup will whet your appetite.
Every time the escort team arrives, a scout will arrive half an hour in advance to report, giving the reception staff here ample preparation time.
It has been a long time since Outer Mongolia moved south, and the supply lines along the way have been completed.
"so cold!"
"Yes! But it's coming soon. I can rest for the night soon. I must go to bed early tonight. I can't play cards with you anymore."
"Haha, let's give you a shout when the time comes, kid, and you will definitely run over."
Several men who looked like officers in the escort team were joking with each other. Looking at the camp getting closer in the distance, everyone unconsciously accelerated their pace.
However, at this moment, a rapid sound of horse hooves suddenly appeared, as if a large group of horse teams had been ambushing around.
"Not good! Enemy attack!"
Almost instantly, various whistles resounded through the wilderness, including warning signals from the escort team and attack signals from the ambushing enemy.
About three or four hundred meters away, two groups of enemies suddenly appeared from behind the hillsides on both sides. The enemies were extremely fast, and they launched a charge the moment the horseshoes resounded.
By the time the escort team was ready, the two sides were already less than a hundred meters apart.
At first the escort team didn't pay much attention.
Due to their recent raids by the Outer Mongolian army, dozens or hundreds of large and small tribes have been swept away one after another, which has also led to an increasing number of refugees on the grasslands.
There are also some wandering bandits.
It's just that this time it seems a little different. Logically speaking, seeing so many of them and causing trouble, they would probably be scared away soon.
But this time the opponent did not, and showed no sign of turning around and escaping when charging.
Bang bang bang!
The intensive first round of gunfire exploded, and all the Mongolians in the escort team were stunned.
wrong! These are not those grassland bandits!
After a round of cavalry shooting, they saw the enemies on both sides pull out the wooden spears hanging on the side of the horse's belly at the same time. Without saying anything, they raised their hands and began to charge up, and then launched a fierce shot.
Whoosh whoosh!
The next moment, the entire escort team was in chaos.
The Mongols in the nearby sentinel camp were dumbfounded.
This kind of temporary supply camp is hardly equipped with many people, only twenty or thirty people. At this moment, seeing this sudden change, they were all a little overwhelmed.
It would definitely not work to rush to the rescue. This group of people was obviously a professional army with extremely high fighting qualities, and they did not look like bandits at all.
Besides, there's not much they can do.
So I just watched like this, watching helplessly as my escort team was pierced through and then completely defeated. Only a few people left their supplies and fled in panic.
Immediately after they saw that the other party had retreated from the escort team, they began to take over the supplies unhurriedly.
They didn't care at all that there were people staring at them, and they didn't even bother to pay attention to them. They just dragged the intercepted supplies away in a dignified manner.
Before leaving, everyone in the supply camp saw someone looking back with contemptuous eyes.
Everyone in the supply camp felt chills all over their bodies and did not dare to resist at all.
Who knows if this group of people will suddenly come back and kill them too.
"You...why don't you come to help?"
At this time, a group of more than a dozen cavalry troops rushed towards the supply camp, and the leader yelled at the people in the supply camp.
