Chapter 757: Attacking The Camp
Chapter 757: Attacking The Camp
Xiao Ruxue, dressed in a white robe and silver armor, looked at Xu Qing and asked: "Xu Qing, my father said that he wants to imitate Huo Qubing and enshrine a wolf as a xu, and drink horses in Hanhai. Do you think my father can do it?"
Xu Qing said: "Kuu can go, so can I. If you insist on doing it, of course you can do it. Although our Chu State now only has 30% to 40% of the land and population of the Central Plains, Zhou State, which is also in the Central Plains, is attracted. half of the troops on the grassland, and they couldn't hold out, the grassland people refused to give up the initiative to fight against Zhou, and they couldn't give up the initiative to fight against Zhou, so what we were facing was only half of the troops on the grassland, and your father Wang is now playing with firearms, firearms and the strength of the army are the advantages of our Chu State alone, even if we cannot completely annihilate half of the main force of the grassland, there is no problem in defeating it."
"Besides, the grassland has just been unified, and there are still a lot of internal problems. Wanyan Khan wanted to pass on these contradictions through war, but he didn't expect it to be self-defeating... Under internal and external pressure, the probability of the grassland turning defeat into victory is actually very small, so he ran to the wolf. It is absolutely no problem for Juxu Mountain to seal the sky, but it is a pity that it can only be sealed for a day, and it has to be withdrawn after the seal is over."
Xiao Ruxue was puzzled and said, "Why?"
Xu Qing sighed and said: "Of course it is because of national strength. Today's Chu State has emptied its treasury to launch this attack on the grassland. It can be said that it has gambled on the national destiny of the entire country. I hope it can be done in one battle and complete your mission." My father's ultimate dream of being a general, but with the current financial resources, it is not a problem to push the national defense line forward a few hundred miles, but it is hard to say if it is farther away, the grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and it cannot be built For cities, if our army spreads too loosely on the grassland, there is no strong defense, and it is easy to be defeated one by one by the grassland army."
"At that time, if the prairie people have a flash of inspiration, their brains will open up and become guerrilla warfare. When the enemy advances, we retreat, if the enemy camps, we harass, when the enemy is tired, we fight, and when the enemy retreats, we chase. Think about it, is there any trouble for our Chu army? ?So the best result is that after the completion of the seal of the wolf, Xu and Ma Hanhai, our country of Chu immediately retreated and firmly controlled the territory that the country of Chu could occupy and control. After a few years, the National Chamber of Commerce The business is fully expanded, and the national treasury is also abundant, so we can move forward slowly, although it is slow, but the victory is steady, unless..."
Xiao Ruxue asked, "Unless what?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "This idea is still a bit immature. I have to think again. Although there are lessons from the past, it is not a country after all. It is hard to say whether it will work."
Xiao Ruxue nodded but realized something was wrong again; "Then since my state of Chu can't completely wipe out the grasslands, why did you encourage your father to wipe out all the people in the grasslands last time in the imperial study?"
Xu Qing spread his hands and said: "If I can't do it, I won't let me have a good time? I also paid the price. I just mentioned that casually and I was dragged to the battlefield by your father. Until now Not even a suit that fits..."
Although King Xian led the army to fight and kill the enemy, the patrol of the barracks still could not be relaxed, Xu Qing still took Xiao Ruxue to patrol the battalions.
Thanks to the foresight of Zhao Hongyu, the chief general of Zhenbei Army, he rested for three days after advancing the army here, otherwise the Chu army would not have the energy to fight the grassland at night.
After Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue inspected the battalions and the firearms storage for two times and confirmed that they were correct, they walked a little further away with Xiao Ruxue, and the two found a stone and sat down.
Xiao Ruxue's head rested on Xu Qing's shoulder, and Xu Qing reached out to wrap her arms around Xiao Ruxue's slender waist. Of course, at this moment, Xiao Ruxue was wearing armor, and her waist could no longer be felt slender, only the slenderness was felt. The coolness of the armor.
The two snuggled up to each other, enjoying the silence silently, but it was a pity that today was supposed to be a full moon night, but because it was cloudy and there was no moon, otherwise it would have been more romantic.
Just when Xiao Ruxue leaned against Xu Qing's shoulder and closed her eyes as if she was asleep, her ears moved suddenly, and then Xiao Ruxue opened her eyes immediately. Although the surrounding area was dark, Xiao Ruxue immediately bounced off Xu Qing's body. Open, took the bow and arrow from the horse, and pulled Xu Qing to lie down behind the big rock that he was sitting on just now, and pointed the bow and arrow at a place that looked like the outline of a bush several feet away, and shouted:
"Who is where?!"
Xu Qing was forced to lie down next to Xiao Ruxue, looking at Xiao Ruxue's nervous appearance, and asked, "Xue'er, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Ruxue said, "My concubine mother taught me the technique of detection. Although I'm not very proficient, I can hear some movement over there, but I'm not sure what it is."
At this moment, a few crickets suddenly sounded not far away, Xiao Ruxue's ears moved, and her tense nerves suddenly relaxed a little: "It turned out to be a few crickets. It was my first time on the battlefield, and I was too nervous." ..."
Unexpectedly, being alone with Xu Qing was interrupted by a few crickets. Thinking of this, Xiao Ruxue couldn't help pouting, the atmosphere just now was gone...
At this moment Xu Qing said: "I don't care if there are crickets on the grassland, but as far as I know, crickets are solitary animals..."
When Xiao Ruxue heard this, her nerves that had just been relaxed immediately tensed up. She pulled the arrow and shot. Xu Qing immediately ignited a thunderbolt with a fire pocket and threw it over, then pulled it out from her leg as fast as possible Fired the firecrackers, and aligned the two wielders.
boom!
There was a sound of rolling thunder, and there were distinct screams in the flames, and the two Daoist figures and many silhouettes covered by the darkness were also briefly reflected.
Seeing this, Xiao Ruxue immediately shot two arrows in salvo, taking away the two figures who had just been exposed to the flames.
But the light from the fire just now also allowed the opposite side to clearly see Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue who were poking their heads behind the stone, and there were only two people on the opposite side.
Xiao Ruxue lay down behind the rock and drew out her long sword, "I feel like they are coming up."
Holding a firecracker in one hand, Xu Qing whispered; "The thunder just now has alarmed the patrolling guards in the camp. We will have reinforcements soon. Take a deep breath, and then cover your mouth and nose to hold your breath."
Xiao Ruxue asked; "What are you going to do?"
Xu Qing took out a small jar and said, "We are outnumbered, seal the smoke first, I have added spicy powder in it, remember to cover your mouth and nose and don't breathe."
Xiao Ruxue let out an "oh" and then took a deep breath, holding her breath and concentrating, her cheeks were puffed up, she was very cute, but it was a pity that Xu Qing couldn't see clearly in the dark.
After the instructions, Xu Qing threw out the two smoke bombs that were lit, and after throwing them, Xu Qing used the turtle's breath technique.
After the smoke filled the air, the two of them stooped like this, and slowly left their current position. Then, there was a lot of coughing sounds in the smoke. It is estimated that many people were crying hot tears.
This kind of biochemical weapon is only controlled by two people in the entire Chu country, one is Xu Qing, and the other is Xiao Ye.
Not to mention inhaling this spicy powder, even touching the skin outside would cause discomfort. As people from the Central Plains, Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue naturally covered it up, but these people from the grasslands didn't necessarily have to.
If Xu Qing dared to send a small army to attack the camp when it was empty, even if Xu Qing couldn't beat it, he would still be able to make a hole.
The gap in weapons.
