Hearing what Li An said, Mo Dongsheng secretly admired him. The Xu family should not be underestimated...
Xu Maocai and others nodded, and they all agreed with Li An's idea. After all, this was Xinqi and one of the Xu family's think tanks.
If An Li had not been involved in an old case, he would have been an official in the government by now.
"Li An, just do it your way. If you still have any doubts, I'll ask the young master to come out." Uncle Liu stood up and said.
"Thank you, Commander Liu." Li An bowed his hand.
Li An never called these people servants. In his eyes, these people were still as brilliant as before.
As Li An made plans, everyone also began to think outside the box, thinking about how to deal with the Beimang army!
What the people here don't know is that it was because of their suggestions that Xu Que, who was forced to do nothing, achieved great achievements, and also caused Xu Que, the Gou Emperor, to suffer a lot...
…
Northern Xinjiang Swampland
When Xu Maofeng and his troops finally broke through the poisonous miasma, they also began to prepare for a two-month rest period. Although Xu Que gave him a longer time, all the soldiers knew that this rest period would last for a month at most. There will be a signal. After all, the troops in Northern Xinjiang will go south to attack Nanfeng Prefecture in four or five days.
"How many brothers have died?" Xu Maofeng asked Xu Long.
Xu Long took off his gas mask and took a deep breath. After he regained his breath, he replied: "A total of seventy-two Pu Dao array soldiers died, three archers, and one spearman. Two hundred and twenty-six soldiers were injured. , it is expected to take more than half a month to recover.”
After hearing this report, Xu Maofeng nodded slightly. In fact, they were all ready to sacrifice hundreds of people, but they didn't expect that Wu Guida actually made a fatal mistake. This was something Xu Maofeng and the others did not expect.
"Go and check the food yourself. If there is no problem, distribute it." Xu Maofeng said.
"Yes, general!" Xu Long handed over his hand, turned around and took his bodyguard to check the food.
Looking at Xu Long's leaving figure, Xu Maofeng muttered "stinky boy" and then laughed.
He decided to return to Zheyang County and burn incense for his father and ancestors. His survival this time was really thanks to these juniors...
Just when Xu Maofeng was thinking about how to live his life back in Zheyang County, two scouts escorted a Beimang soldier over.
"General, an enemy scout was found in the swamp!" A soldier said and kicked the Beimang soldier directly.
As soon as he stepped down, the Beimang soldier came to chew the mud.
Xu Maofeng's face turned slightly gloomy when he saw a gas mask hanging around the other party's neck, because the other party's gas mask belonged to a dead soldier!
"Tell me, how many people are guarding the outside?" Xu Maofeng asked calmly.
The scout was afraid of death and immediately said: "At first there was a group of cavalry and archers, but because the general ordered adjustments, there are now three hundred cavalry and four hundred archers outside."
Hearing this amount, Xu Maofeng didn't show any surprise. If he were Ugueda, he would do the same thing. After all, he just needs to guard the exit of the swamp.
However, Uqaida obviously does not understand this swamp, or in other words, no one before has understood the environment of the swamp, because this swamp has more than one exit, but three!
"Take off his mask and let him go!" Xu Maocai said.
Just as the Beimang soldier was about to thank him, he realized something was wrong. How could he go out without a mask...
"General, spare your life. I am willing to serve you. General, please..."
Before the Beimang soldier could finish speaking, the two scouts directly blocked each other's mouths and then dragged the Beimang soldier to the side of the swamp.
Just one kick, a simple kick, and the Beimang soldier immediately held his breath, and then kept rushing out.
But no matter how hard he rushed, he couldn't break through the blockade of the two scouts...
In less than a dozen breaths, the Beimang soldier's movements began to slow down, and he finally fell into the swamp with bleeding from his seven holes...
Looking at the tragic death of the Beimang soldier, the two scouts slapped each other and then threw each other deep into the swamp.
On the first night, Xu Jiajun's life was not comfortable, because in a short time, the scouts were able to bring back one person. It was not until late at night that the Beimang scouts were not discovered entering the swamp.
Seeing that the soldiers were resting, Xu Long came to Xu Maofeng's tent and said, "Father, my little cousin sent this before. He said that we can't open it until we are completely safe."
Xu Long handed a blue tips bag to Xu Maofeng.
"Does Li An know?" Xu Maofeng asked, holding the tips bag.
"He knows, but he said that according to Xu Que's method, it may be some kind of strategy." Xu Long replied.
Xu Maofeng nodded and opened the kit. When he saw the contents of the kit, Xu Maofeng laughed.
"This brat!"
Xu Long was stunned and asked: "Father, what is the clever plan my little cousin is talking about?"
"Take a look." Xu Maofeng placed the letter in front of Xu Long.
When Xu Long read the letter, he also laughed. He thought it was some clever plan, but it turned out to be telling them how to survive in the swamp...
"This guy wrote in quite detail. He even took the environment into consideration." Xu Long said with a smile.
"Yeah, I don't know where this brat learned it from. If I hadn't been marching and fighting for so long, I would really learn it." Xu Maofeng stroked his beard and smiled.
In fact, Xu Que wrote about general survival methods. After all, he had never been in the swamp, and he never expected that the uncle and the others would prepare two months of rations and stay here as a garrison.
…
Xu Mansion, Zheyang County
When Xu Que came back, it was already night. He originally wanted to go back and have a good rest, but he was called to the main hall by Uncle Liu.
When he heard that the governor was going to recruit people to defend Nanfeng City today, a bright light flashed in Xu Que's eyes. He was also wondering how Wang Peng would jump out, but he was sent to his door.
But after hearing that his eldest brother had handed the things to Mo Dongsheng, his interest waned. After all, he only had Qiantong left in his hand.
But it doesn't matter. After all, Qian Tong has too many things. If Wang Peng insists on seeking death, he will hand over Qian Tong to Mo Dongsheng tomorrow.
Just when Xu Que was thinking this, Uncle Liu told Li An's strategy against the enemy.
After hearing Li An's plan, Xu Que secretly praised the poisonous man because Li An's behavior was so similar to Jia Xu in the Three Kingdoms.
"Que'er, do you have anything else to add?" Xu Maocai asked.
Xu Que glanced at Uncle Li An and said with a smile: "Li An, if Ma Guanxing and General Zhang Feng cooperate with you, what are you going to do?"
Li An also didn't expect that Xu Que would actually test him, so he thought for a moment and replied: "Use Mengcheng as a sword and Nanfeng City as bait. As long as Beimang attacks Nanfeng City, then Mengcheng can Attack.”
Xu Que thought for a moment and nodded slightly: "If Beimang discovers that Mengcheng is attacking, what if we turn around and attack Mengcheng?"
"Then Nanfeng City will send troops to help..."
Before Li An finished speaking, Xu Que interrupted: "Uncle Li An, you are wrong. Although your strategy is good, you ignored one condition, that is, the defenders of Nanfeng City have no ability to attack at all. They are just Mansion soldiers, not soldiers!"
In fact, Li An's method was okay in the first half, but if Beimang reacts in the second half, Mengcheng will suffer!
Li An's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what Xu Que wanted to do!
"The young master's talent really has the appearance of a saint." Li An praised.
Xu Maocai and others were confused and had no idea what kind of riddle these two people were playing.
"Uncle Li An is too complimentary. I'm just helping you think more carefully about your strategy." Xu Que smiled and bowed.
"Li An, do you have a better plan?" Xu Maocai asked.
Li An smiled and nodded: "What the young master means is to let Zhang Feng defend the city, and Ma Guanxing builds a temporary camp outside the city. In this way, no matter how the Beimang army attacks Mengcheng, Ma Guanxing in the camp will be the first to do so. Attack..."
When Li An said this, everyone finally understood, and at this time Xu Que added: "Let General Ma build the camp on the mountain behind Mengcheng. If Beimang wants to find an opportunity to sneak attack them, he will have to pay a heavy price. "
"Well, this method is good." Li An nodded.
As the two people explained the plan perfectly, Xu Fan finally stopped writing.
