Pig Killer

Chapter 369

"Take care, my brother!" Major General Yu bowed and watched the army leave.

After seeing off Huang Zhongchang and his men, Major General Yu also set up the central military tent and deployed his troops.

"Mr. Zeng, when I saw my brother's bag of dry food, I had some ideas." Major General Yu said to his teacher.

"You want to send out troops to launch a surprise attack on the government army's granary in Xingyang." Mr. Zeng looked at him gently and said.

"That's right!" General Yu looked at him with burning eyes and said, "It's not just the Xingyang granary, there's also the government army's food and fodder supplies. Ambush them on the supply route, burn them down!"

"No problem." Mr. Zeng nodded with a smile, looked at him with some concern and said, "Brother, you are calling me so enthusiastically, you won't take it seriously, right?"

"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain." General Yu looked at him with clear eyes and said, "How can you take it seriously? You think too much."

"Yes!" Mr. Zeng nodded with relief.

"Father, father, can you please teach this method to Young General Yu?" The big tiger, who was riding on the same horse with his father, looked back and asked him.

"Silly boy, our current enemy is the government army. I don't want the Yu family to lose." Huang Zhongchang lowered his eyes and looked at him with a stern gaze. "In the future, when our two armies face off, we will each rely on our own abilities. Now, let's unite to deal with the government army."

"Oh!" The big tiger nodded obediently.

Shen Hui'e and her companions were as cautious as when they came here, and when they returned, things went much more smoothly, although they also hid during the day and moved out at night.

We rarely encountered large-scale government troops. If we did, we avoided head-on confrontation and took a detour.

Under the noses of the government troops,

"Where are the government troops?" Tie Feng asked curiously.

"They are all attracted by the Yu family, so naturally there are fewer people here." Zhang Jixian smiled and said, "Thank you, General Yu, for your great reputation."

"Hehe..." Huang Zhongchang laughed unkindly.

"I don't know what's going on at home?" Tie Feng said anxiously.

"Someone has already gone home on horseback to report." Huang Zhongchang looked at him with his distinct black and white eyes and said, "If you are in a hurry, go back quickly!"

"Then I'll be leaving!" Tie Feng's eyes lit up when he heard that.

"Let's go!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement.

"Are we going to attack Xiaoguan when we go back?" Tie Feng said as he looked at them with green eyes.

"Of course, this matter should be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise things will change." Shen Hui'e looked at them with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "I have already arranged the time to go and find out."

"Given the terrain of Guanzhong, it is surrounded by mountains on all sides, so Xiaoguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the defense is weak, there are people guarding the gate! How can we break through?" Huang Zhongchang said worriedly.

Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes like black jade and said, "Xiaoguan Pass is not difficult to break through, and it is not built on a cliff. It was built according to the terrain, with barriers set up along the river, and cities and barriers built. Xiaoguan built at this intersection is a pass built on the Great Wall."

"The construction of each pass is related to the terrain. The passes cooperate with the mountains and water to build a complete defense system." Shen Hui'e said slowly.

"The mountains are from Sanguankou to Wating Gorge, and the mountains are steep and majestic. The water is the Jing River." Zhang Jixian said after hearing this.

"Yes." Shen Hui'e nodded with a smile, "It's a natural defense system. The combination of mountains and water, as well as man-made fortifications, make the pass more solid."

"Man-made fortifications?" Huang Zhongchang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The village, the rammed earth wall built around the village, is a fortress for garrisoning troops, guarding the road to Xiaoguan. There are also beacon towers on both sides of the mountain." Shen Hui'e looked at him with deep and clear eyes and said, "From the beacon towers, any slight movement in Guanzhong to the south and outside the Great Wall to the north can be seen at a glance."

"So if you want to enter Xiaoguan, you have to take over the village and beacon tower in front." Huang Zhongchang said with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"That's right." Shen Hui'e nodded slightly and continued with a smile, "I have checked all of this. There are only the elderly, weak, women and children left in the village, and there are also old, weak and disabled soldiers on the beacon tower."

"That's good." Huang Zhongchang looked at them with his bright eyes.

"After taking Xiaoguan, how to take the capital? This is up to you." Shen Hui'e looked at them with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "You are more familiar with the capital than I am."

"We have been repairing the imperial mausoleum. To be honest, I have never seen what the capital looks like." Huang Zhongchang tapped his thick eyebrows with his index finger.

"Then we have no choice but to send out scouts to continue investigating." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade.

"It is said that the defense of the capital is weak. We can attack directly and make a big move." Tie Feng said carelessly, "We will kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor."

"That won't do. If we act rashly, we won't even know how we died." Shen Hui'e looked at them seriously, which was rare for her. "Knowing yourself and your enemy means you will win every battle."

"Oh!" Tie Feng nodded, "I just want to take over the capital as soon as possible."

"This is not a question of speed. More haste, less speed." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and said, "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"Speaking of tofu, I want to eat tofu." The big tiger smacked his lips and said.

"When we get home, we'll have tofu to eat." Huang Zhongchang looked at him with a smile and said, "I've been eating fried noodles these days, and I'm..." He shuddered.

"But this fried noodles is good. It didn't go bad in such a hot day." Zhang Jixian looked at them with his dark eyes and said, "They are carrying food and supplies, which slows down the march."

"There are no such things as marching and fighting. Speed ​​is of the essence." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her gentle eyes and said, "Once we take over the capital, let's reward ourselves."

Shen Hui'e and the others returned home, and everything went according to plan, just like before they left.

The wheat has already earred, and the soldiers have become stronger after these days of training.

Shen Hui'e and his men took a brief rest, left some troops behind, and marched to Xiaoguan, the northern gate of Guanzhong!

Shen Hui'e and the others set up camp in the mountains. "According to the scouts' inquiries, just like before we went south, the villages outside Xiaoguan are full of the elderly, the weak, women and children, and there are few soldiers guarding the beacon towers on the mountains."

"The periphery of Xiaoguan is easy to deal with, but how do we get into Xiaoguan?" Huang Zhongchang asked, looking straight at her.

Shen Penglai said with a smile, "Leave Xiaoguan to us."

"What do you mean?" Huang Zhongchang looked at his brother-in-law and asked.

"It's a dark and windy night. Let's climb up the city wall!" Shen Penglai looked at them with a smile and said, "When you were away, we specially trained to climb the city wall of Hezhong Prefecture. We are as agile as monkeys and climbed up in the blink of an eye."

"What do you guys do to train your soldiers?" Huang Zhongchang asked curiously.
