The eyes of Zhu Lingxiu and Hu Longshi almost burst out with fire. Hu Longshi gritted his teeth and said: "It's these Kongming lanterns, these thieves on the Kongming lanterns, who launched fire attacks and harmed so many of our brothers. If we don't avenge this, we are in vain as soldiers!"
"
Zhu Lingxiu said in a deep voice: "Brother Daoji, didn't you say that we need to reorganize our archers to specifically deal with these sky lanterns? I think they fly very slowly, so it's no problem at all. As long as our archers fly over our heads,
When you shoot at them, you will be able to shoot them all down. You don’t need Brother Longshi, even I can easily complete this task!"
Tan Daoji softly said "Oh": "So, brother Lingxiu, where are you going to shoot down these Kongming lanterns?"
Zhu Lingxiu said without thinking: "Since Brother Daoji has now erected three red flame flags, he has informed the location of the general platform. As expected, all the Kongming Lanterns will attack here, and then want to recreate an aerial fire attack on the ground.
In this situation, our archers only need to ambush near the general platform, and when they rush over to set fire, they will fire a volley of thousands of arrows, and hehe, they can all be shot down at once!"
Tan Daoji looked at Hu Longshi: "Brother Longshi, what do you think?"
Hu Longshi's brows have been furrowed. Although his eyes are still red and filled with murderous intent, the redness on his neck has slowly faded away. This young man seems to be regaining his senses. From the perspective of a general,
, making the most calm judgment on the current battle situation, he murmured to himself: "If I were the commander of the enemy's sky lantern, they might not all float over so suddenly."
Having said this, he looked at Zhu Lingxiu who had a surprised look on his face: "The wall of fire that was outside the formation before was able to be successfully attacked by fire. Firstly, it was because smoke and dust were everywhere. Our forward was in the smoke and dust. Look,
I can’t see the distance clearly, let alone the sky in the distance.”
"Secondly, the Kongming Lantern's tactics are beyond our army's expectations. All our thoughts before were focused on defeating the wooden armored machine man, and the situation is extremely favorable to our side. The enemy's army collapsed across the board, and our army went free to kill them. We can
He said he fell into a trap to lure the enemy."
"The third one didn't expect that when the two armies were still intersecting and fighting together, the enemy would dare to attack with fire without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy. This is the reason why we fell into the enemy's trick.
.It’s not about how powerful this Kongming Lantern is.”
Having said this, Hu Longshi breathed a long sigh of relief: "My father often said that on the battlefield, things are changing rapidly, and you must not stick to routines. As the saying goes, soldiers are impermanent and water is impermanent. The tactics that were successful last time may not be good next time.
Envoy, because of these three reasons, we allowed the demon thieves to take advantage and wiped out half of our rear army, but they would not expect to have such luck forever. If I were the enemy's Kongming Lantern Commander
The commander will be very careful when attacking Brother Daoji's general station, because we proactively expose the general's position, which can be understood as calling the troops in front to evacuate quickly, but it may also be a trick to lure the enemy."
Zhu Lingxiu suddenly realized: "Yes, if it were me, I would know the location of the enemy general at once. When I was excited, I would also consider whether there was an ambush or a scam! Although these sky lanterns are flying in the air, they are only a few feet away.
The height is not high enough that bows and arrows cannot be shot down. They may bet that we don’t have enough bows and arrows, but they won’t bet on hundreds of sky lanterns. If they are not careful, they may lose them all. It’s not worth it.”
Tan Daoji smiled and nodded: "The so-called heroes see the same thing. That's it. The enemy succeeded by luck, but they also know that this is abnormal. They will be cautious when they attack again. We only have three hundred archers and five thousand rockets.
, If you want to extinguish these Kongming lanterns, unless you attack suddenly and use an ambush, you must cooperate with the enemy. All Kongming lanterns must enter the ambush point instead of dividing the troops."
Hu Longshi said seriously: "So, Brother Daoji's three red flame flags are a tactic to lure the enemy. The general platform is not your ideal battlefield for a decisive battle or an ambush place, but to further lure the enemy to attack and let them let go of everything."
A place of caution and precaution.”
Tan Daoji sighed: "When I first raised the three red flame flags, I just wanted the troops who rushed out to retreat. After all, I didn't feel very good at that time. Unfortunately, this military order was blocked by the traitor Han Zeyu and failed.
However, this also exposed the location of our general station. I sent a military order earlier, asking the sergeants who were broken up and reorganized in front of us to gather at the general station here at Red Flame Banner. Lingxiu, how many of them are back now?"
Zhu Lingxiu sighed: "Before I went to Long Shi's place, I withdrew all the drummers, flag bearers and Ming Jin's gong players. There were only more than 400 people, plus the 300 people from your reserve team in the Central Army.
Of the soldiers, I’m afraid not even one or two out of ten will come back, but at most four to five hundred, which is all we have now.”
The muscles on Tan Daoji's face twitched slightly: "Yes, that's pretty much it. I have arranged for the Chinese Guards and half of the troops to withdraw to the rear, ready to receive the reinforcements coming from the Chinese Army. For the others, I
, I will stay in Jiangtai."
Hu Longshi's face changed: "What? Stay at Jiangtai? If it is a place to lure enemies, archers will not be arranged to ambush there. Brother Daoji, you mean to take the initiative to take three or four hundred brothers."
Exposed to the enemy's Kongming Lantern troops to attack?"
Zhu Lingxiu gritted his teeth: "They don't even have bows and arrows, how can we fight them? That's asking them to die. Brother Daoji, even if it's for an ambush and a bait, we can't harm so many good brothers."
Tan Daoji closed his eyes and murmured: "If there were other ways, how could I make such a move? How could the demon thief take the bait if there were not enough bait? If there were only three sides of red flames on the general platform,
How can we make people believe that this is the general's platform where I, Tan Daoji, are located, but there are not enough guard sergeants around? How can we attract the demon thieves' Kongming Lantern troops to attack in full force?"
Zhu Lingxiu sighed: "If the enemy attacks with fire, wouldn't it be difficult for our brothers to escape? Can't we use straw men, dummies or the like instead?"
Tan Daoji said in a deep voice: "There is too little time. Moreover, the spy Han Zeyu can lurk around us for many years. We do not rule out that there are still spies. If we let him send a signal and the enemy's Kongming Lantern does not come, then all our ambush and counterattack
The plan has been in vain. Not only can our rear army not be able to hold its position, but we will also allow the enemy's most powerful Kong Ming Lantern to attack the Chinese army. We will be the sinners of the entire army, and we will never be able to atone for our mistakes even if we die a hundred times!"
