Hu Rui's last sentence drove Ding Cai to death. His answer of "yes" was to disobey his master's order, and his answer of "no" was to look down on Hu Rui. No matter what answer he gave, it was wrong.
Ding Cai wailed: "I'm going! Why don't you just go to a humble position?"
At that time, Fan Yuzhen complained: "I have never seen anyone dig a hole to bury themselves like this."
"Do you think I am willing? I was thinking about everyone." Ding Cai glared at Lei Feixiang, "It's all you!"
"Hey! You can't talk nonsense. You came up with the strategy of luring the enemy, and I'm not the only one who knows about your great achievements. I admit it's a bit rash, but you have to accept this task whether I tell you or not."
Lei Feixiang secretly glanced at Shaodianmi as he spoke, which meant that Shaodianmi also knew about Ding Cai's achievements.
"Brother Cai is mighty! Brother Cai will win!" Ding Fen cheered up Ding Cai obediently.
She waved her little fists and looked very cute.
"Hey!" Ding Cai's eyes lit up, "We have a solution!"
His laughter was very scary, "Why are you looking at me?" Ding Fen took two steps back, like a frightened deer seeing the big bad wolf.
"Miss Xiaohua, how does Brother Cai usually treat you?" Ding Cai rubbed his hands excitedly, looking quite wretched.
"Brother Cai! Please let me go, I can't command a war!" Ding Fen was afraid that Ding Cai would catch him and replace him.
"No, no, no! I have already accepted the order from the Chief of Staff, why would I let you take command? I just want to ask you a favor. You pretend to be a noble lady, dress up a little more beautifully, and act together with my enemy-baiting team.
" Before Ding Cai finished speaking, his eyes drifted towards Lu Ying.
Lu Ying didn't react, and even defended Ding Fen: "Don't bully Xiaohua, how can you let her go to such a dangerous action!"
Hua Mulan hugged Lu Ying from behind and said, "Brother Cai needs more than one helper."
"Haha, Sister-in-law of the Cui family understands me. Miss Lu, if you can take action, my action will definitely succeed!"
Lu Ying blinked and said, "You finally know how powerful I am? But I won't cheat defeat."
"No problem! You don't need to take action, as long as you can run, but you have to look a little uglier when you run." Ding Cai became more and more energetic.
"Ah? Do I also want to run more ugly?" Ding Fen rushed over to save Lu Ying.
Shao Dianfei clapped his hands and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, as expected of a famous defeated general, Brother Cai actually thought of using a honey trap! It's amazing, it's amazing! You made me think about it for three days and three nights and I couldn't think of anything."
Everyone gradually came to understand, but only the three little girls Ding Fen, Lu Ying and Ruan Xingzhu were still confused.
Hua Mulan whispered to Ruan Xingzhu. Ruan Xingzhu first covered his mouth, then smiled at Ding Cai and said, "Ding Cai, if you don't ask me for help, are you looking down on me?"
"Where is it! How dare you trouble the captain? If you are really willing, I will be eager for your help."
"Well, I don't worry about Xiaohua and Pingguo going, so I just think of it as protecting them."
"Okay!" Fan Yuzhen praised, "This plan will definitely work! I support you! Well, you can tell Mr. Hu clearly and ask him to select some female relatives to participate in your action. I can also follow if necessary.
.”
"You?" Ding Cai looked at Fan Yuzhen's strong back and said, "Uh, forget it, I finally came up with a solution."
"What do you mean?" Fan Yuzhen raised her thick eyebrows.
"Ah, it doesn't mean anything. Yes, yes!" Ding Cai noticed that Fan Yuzhen had a fierce look in his eyes and immediately changed his tune, "You have to protect Mr. Hu, and our captain and deputy captain cannot leave at the same time."
Lei Feixiang held a piece of grass in his mouth and said, "Hey, if we want to pretend to be women, I will definitely not refuse."
"Bah! I'm not as good as asking you to dress up as women." Ding Cai suddenly closed his mouth.
"Not as good as what?" Lei Feixiang raised his chin.
"Hmph! I'm going to find Mr. Hu." Ding Cai ran away in a hurry.
His new idea is very simple. Let Ding Fen, Lu Ying, Ruan Xingzhu and other beauties mix into the enemy team and pretend to be escaped aristocratic ladies.
Those three little girls are young and beautiful, full of vitality and vigor. Normal men would like them when they see them, let alone the male soldiers who have been suppressed in the military camp for a long time.
These female relatives followed Ding Cai in defeat and fled, so they were not afraid that the enemy would not be tempted.
Fan Yuzhen gritted her teeth and chased after Ding Cai.
"Beauty trap! Very good. This will attract the enemy to chase them out. Moreover, the enemy knows that there are women in our team. It is reasonable for them to appear with you. Why didn't I think of it just now!" Hu Rui understood immediately after hearing this.
But he didn't think of it before Ding Cai perfected his idea, which proved that Ding Cai was indeed very good at "defeating battles."
He immediately went to the group of family members in person and consulted with several family leaders.
Liang Gong's wife, Liang Chen, was in this team and was one of the few people who could ride in the car.
After listening to Hu Rui's statement, she first said: "All the women from good families are participating in the operation. Just having young and beautiful women can easily make the enemy suspicious. I will go with everyone."
I believe the enemy will have information about me in their hands. Although I am a bit older, the enemy is no less interested in me than those young girls."
"This is too dangerous." Hu Rui didn't want anything to happen to Mrs. Tianjihou in his hands.
"Judging from the current situation, the only threat to us is our own army. If we can defeat one of their divisions at the Waterless Fortress, the road ahead will be much easier. The higher the danger, the higher the profit. I
I'm willing to take this risk, and besides, the enemy won't hurt me that easily."
Mrs. Liangchen turned her head and winked, and a female knight in full body armor strode forward with fighting spirit armor emerging from her body. She came to stand behind Mrs. Liangchen and leaned on her sword.
The most senior female relative present is Yu Wei's mother, Yu Cao, who is now over eighty years old.
"Mrs. Liang's knowledge is no worse than that of you men. I believe what she said, you, you, you..." She pointed at a few people with her crutches, "Anyone who can run should go and participate. I am inconvenient, so I won't give you any trouble."
It’s troublesome.”
Hu Rui's heart fell back just as he raised it.
There were no female members of the Bao family present. Bao Jian, the elder of the Bao family, was one of the clan elders and was responsible for protecting the Bao family members this time.
"Mrs. Liang and Mrs. Yu have set an example. Bao admires them very much. They will definitely follow in this operation and protect the safety of the two ladies throughout the process. In addition, how many more female dependents does Mr. Hu need? The Bao family will make up for it."
If the inspection is included, Hu Rui will be reassured.
The staff officers of the Sixteenth Army Corps were not idle either. Based on Ding Cai's ideas, they formulated a more complete plan to lure the enemy.
After everyone discussed it, Hu Rui ordered: "Let's go!"
…
The 1st Central and North Army Corps was on duty in Nanguo County, and the 5th North and Central Division was sent to Duanshui Fortress. The division commander He Tai came to this unit with the aura of a "famous general in the southwest", but unfortunately he never had a good record.
The 5th North and Central Division has not suffered any major blows since it entered Shaodian Kingdom, nor has it won many battles. It can still maintain a relatively complete organization. He Tai is accustomed to using extremely aggressive tactics and advocates offense, but in Nanguo County
There is no use for it.
This time to intercept the remnants of the 16th Army Corps, Jing Xuan considered it an opportunity for training, so he sent out two divisions with less actual combat experience, and the 5th North and Central Division was one of them.
"Report! A large number of suspicious people were found on the official road to the west, ten miles away from the fortress."
"Explore again!" This military information caught He Tai's attention. "Could it be those deserters? They should arrive at my place soon." He decided to board the fortress tower and wait for further news.
About an hour later, the scout came again and reported: "The suspicious people have no flags. Most of them are wearing military uniforms. There are also a small number of men and women wearing noble clothes. They are now about five miles away from the fortress."
"That's right! It's them. Haha, I've been waiting for the battle achievements to come to my door. It's finally my turn for such a good thing." He Tai suddenly became energetic and said, "Send an order to the entire army to prepare for battle."
The information he received from the rebels was that there were about 2,000 remaining defeated generals covering hundreds of noble family members as they fled towards Dongjin County.
"Report! The suspicious men and horses have arrived three miles away. They number about a thousand. More than a hundred knights have launched an attack on our scout squadron. They can be judged as enemy troops."
"A large team went to the fortress and asked the original defenders to cook. Remember to kill a few more cattle and sheep. Let's celebrate tonight!" He Tai began to put on his armor.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, a loose formation of soldiers and horses came towards the Duanshui Fortress. There were our own army scouts in front of them and they fought and retreated.
Wuwuwu, the trombone sounded from the fortress, and our scouts quickly gathered together, ran to the foot of the fortress, abandoned their horses, climbed the rope ladder with bare hands, and soon retreated into the fortress.
More than a dozen war horses followed and were driven back by the rain of arrows from the fortress.
"Look! Look! There's a beautiful woman over there." A soldier of our own army shouted excitedly.
He Tai was originally observing the enemy's general, but when he heard the shouts of his men, he couldn't help but scan his telescope to the rear.
Sure enough, there was a group of women in the middle of the team, surrounded by a woman in luxurious clothes.
The woman was graceful and dignified, and there were female guards holding swords beside her. The women next to her were big or small, some were pretty and refined, some were shy and cute, and some were graceful and graceful. They were all beauties!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the aristocratic women from Hailin Prefecture are so beautiful!" He Tai drooled.
The subordinates flattered them: "Hee hee, they are not all yours after taking them down! You can even reward those with low rank after you have enjoyed them."
"It makes sense! Come here, send an order to the second and third battalions to come out of the fortress and capture the enemy." He Tai's order was to capture, not to repel.
Then the war drums roared on the fortress, and more arrows rained down, forcing back the enemies within a hundred meters in front of the fortress.
Ding Cai led a few people to run back and forth in front of the team, craning his neck to look at the situation on the fortress, "Are we going to send people out? No one is still shooting so vigorously." He saw changes in the enemy troops.
Ruan Jizong followed Ding Cai with a spear and said: "Don't be careless, the enemy may rush out at any time."
"I'm afraid they won't come out, huh? Here they come!" Ding Cai immediately turned his horse's head and ran back to the team.
The west gate of Duanshui Fortress opened wide, and our troops poured out like a tide.
Mrs. Liangchen stood up from the car, pretending to be panicked, but said, "Did the enemy take the bait?"
