Chapter 697: Catching turtles in a real urn
When the sky is just dawn, people's spirit is the most relaxed.
The soldiers who guarded all night were sleepy, and the soldiers who had just handed over were sleepy again...
With a thunderous sound, a group of frightened birds suddenly flew out of the forest.
The soldiers patrolling outside the tent looked at each other, scratched their heads, and did not think about it any more.
In the forest, the dew was very heavy, and the sun had not yet risen, and the lush forests were filled with mist.
Wang Daechui and Li Daozong looked at the flock of birds that were moving away in the sky and couldn't help but swallow.
"I'm so scared. Who made the noise just now?"
Li Daozong turned his head and looked at the corpse on the ground in embarrassment.
"I didn't expect there was a scout on the tree, but fortunately I found it early."
Li Daozong frowned. There had been more than a hundred scouts along the way. Unexpectedly, Gaisuwen was so cautious.
After touching the night vision device on his head, Li Daozong couldn't help but tilt the corners of his mouth. If it weren't for the night vision device's help, their actions would have been discovered long ago.
Wang Dahui took out a grain stick and started gnawing, looked at the sky, and took out a metal disk from his arms.
With a slap, the lid opened.
"Tsk tsk, Brother Wang, when will I help me make up this thing?"
Li Daozong is no longer unfamiliar with the pocket watch in Wang Dachui's hand. He knows that it is a good object to look at the time. He can accurately read out the specific time regardless of day or night, and can also be accurate to the moment.
Wang Dahui glanced at him and said, "I will give you this to you when I capture these 30,000 people alive."
"Really!" Li Daozong was so excited that he was ready to rub his hands.
At this time, two men rushed over not far away: "Captain, I found them. I was in the northeast of three miles. There were thousands of people, using hills as their whistles and flags as their messages, and sending a signal every one stick of incense."
Wang Daechui and Li Daozong looked at each other and smiled: "Very good, you guys go and rest first."
"yes."
Meanwhile, above the sky.
Xi Yunfei, Li Yuan, and the heads of seven aristocratic families are overlooking the earth.
Cui Shang held a map in his hand and said, "The mountain here is very steep, and there is only a narrow mountain stream path in the middle to pass through. This Yu Gaisuwen is easy to make up. If we continue to march without our knowledge, we may be trapped to death in the mountain stream."
Li Yuan curled his lips: "It's not just trapped to death, but at that time, the three hot oil, rolling wood, and huge rocks will be defeated even if the army of 100,000 will fail. It was because of this natural danger that the army chose to take the water route."
The heads of the family looked at each other. When Emperor Yang of Sui fought against Goguryeo for three times, the first time he did take the land route, but he was directly ambushed by the enemy, with heavy casualties. He did not expect that the other party would still want to use the same trick again today.
A sharp look flashed in Cui Shang's eyes and said to Xi Yunfei: "Langjun, although these two cliffs are easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are only two mountain roads, north and south, up and down the mountain. As long as we guard the mountain roads and trap them to death, we will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"This is my clever plan!" Li Yuan added leisurely.
Cui Shang rolled his eyes and looked at Xi Yunfei.
Xi Yunfei reached out to signal him to be calm, and he was waiting for Wang Dahui's signal at this time.
Fortunately, the phone rang soon.
"Erlang, as you expected, they did stock up on the top of the mountain, enough for 30,000 people to eat for ten days and half a month."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then Cui Shang let out a heavy breath, looking a little higher than that in his heart.
Judging from the current situation, the other party is well prepared and considering that the situation is being besieged, not only has a large amount of food and grass been hoarded, but it may also be arranged in the rear.
When Li Yuan and others showed sad expressions, Xi Yunfei relaxed and said, "I understand, you all retreat, don't alert the snake."
Putting down his phone, Xi Yunfei picked up a pencil and marked a place on the map, and said to Li Yuan: "Old man, let the army block the mountain road directly, divert their attention, and then..."
One hour later.
Yuan Gaisuwen, who was waiting for the enemy situation in the big tent, gradually had a bad premonition.
In the past, I would have received news from the scouts ahead in about half an hour, but it has been an hour and a half since I woke up this morning, but I can't wait for any feedback.
Just as he closed his eyes and pondered, there was a sudden loud drumbeat outside the tent.
"Enemy attack?"
Yuan Gaisuwen's eyebrows were twisted together, and the premonition in her heart was finally fulfilled.
He ran out of the tent in a hurry and happened to meet the adjutant who came to inform him.
"General, a large number of Tang troops suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain, surrounding the mountain roads on both sides of the north and south, and there was no less than 50,000 troops."
"Fifty thousand?" Yuan Gaisuwen was surprised, "How did they find out where we are?"
The adjutant shook his head in panic, and was also very confused about this. Logically, their ambush should be perfect.
"Forget it, immediately gather a large army to defend the mountain road, and send people to prepare turmeric oil and wood to meet the enemy with me."
"yes."
Yuan Gaisuwen held the hilt of the sword in his left hand, twisted his whiskers with his right hand, and looked at the sky with his eyes narrowed. After pondering for a while, his heart suddenly trembled and he quickly turned around and ran towards the place where the food was stored.
However, as soon as his front foot was cut, a loud sound of shocking the sky came from that direction, and then the earth shook and the fire surged into the sky.
"What's going on?" Yuan Gai Suwen staggered a few steps and looked up at the source of the earthquake.
The big tent where he is located is the highest point of this mountain. It is conspicuous and can see the Shura Fire Hell at a glance.
Explosions came one after another, and the stockpiles were constantly blown away, and then clusters of strange blue-blue flames spread out.
The soldiers attached to the flames flew everywhere. Some people were closer to the sink and jumped in with a thud. They thought they had saved their lives, but just as soon as they poked out of the water, the fire on their bodies turned strangely rekindled.
Yuan Gaisuwen clenched his fists, and in a blur, something seemed to flash from top to bottom in his sight. Although it was extremely subtle, he still keenly discovered the abnormality. He followed his sight upwards and a huge white dome appeared in his sight...
On the airship, Li Yuan clapped his hands and laughed: "Hahaha, this time I really caught turtles in a jar. I burned their food and grass, and I have no food and drink. I see how long his 30,000 people can last."
Xi Yunfei looked down at the top of the mountain, as if he felt something, so he took out his telescope and looked at the highest platform.
In the lens tube, a bearded man stood on the platform on the top of the mountain, glaring at him.
"This person is Yeon Gassuvin?"
Xi Yunfei curled the corner of his mouth with interest, put down his telescope, and said to Cui Shang: "Uncle Cui, when you see the beacon smoke on the mountain, the defenders in Jian'an City will definitely come to support you. You can immediately send someone to ambush the tide and wait for the 20,000 people to pass by, and you will go straight to Jian'an City."
Cui Shang was extremely excited at this time and nodded repeatedly when he heard this.
Li Yuan looked at him squintedly, curled his lips, and said, "In this way, Jian'an City is also an empty city. My trick can be said to be a killer of three birds with one stone. It's a bonus for you, Boling Cui, Humph!"
Cui Shang did not respond abnormally this time, but instead bowed his hand to Li Yuan and expressed his gratitude. I have to say that after such a magical operation, Cui's victory in taking Jian'an City was almost certain.
Xi Yunfei carried his hands on his back, looking at the figure on the top of the mountain that turned around and walked down the mountain road, and muttered with a smile: "The 30,000 people on this mountain and the 20,000 people are about to arrive, which is 50,000. Hehe, I just happened to be arrested to build a road and build a bridge."
