Chen Zhong's face was also quite ugly. Oswin's method of using a fake granary to cover the real underground granary really surprised Chen Zhong. What was even more troublesome was that the real underground granary was not so easy to burn.
The Kabul Valley, not to mention other places, the urban area of Kabul in later generations alone covered an area of 5,000 square kilometers, and the internal area of the valley could even reach 30,000 to 40,000 square kilometers.
It's just that no matter how large the area inside the valley is, the place where it separates the front of the valley and the upper reaches of the Helmand River is very narrow. The whole is in the shape of a trumpet, then shrinks into a date pit, and then shrinks into a pointed shape.
A narrow river valley leads to the Khyber Pass.
At only 600 meters wide, it can be said to be the import and export of South Asia.
The area of this place is actually very large. If Cao Cao were here, he would have no problem raising millions of people. Oswin did not have this ability, but Oswin made reasonable use of this vast area.
Thirty-seven granaries are distributed in the valley of more than 30,000 square kilometers. If it is an above-ground granary, Chen Zhong only needs to allocate the manpower well. After knocking the heads of the group to death at the beginning, each granary can arrange 150 people.
People quickly set the granary on fire.
Even if the militiamen staying nearby discover it by then, it will actually be too late to stop it. After all, setting a fire is much easier than putting out a fire.
In addition, the local leaders who had greeted Chen Zhong before were killed during the banquet. Even if the remaining middle and high-level officials wanted to organize manpower to fight back, it would still take some time, and this time was enough for Chen Zhong.
At least 80% of the granaries have been destroyed.
Chen Zhong would not even think about killing them all, because it was unrealistic. There would definitely be some accidents. Maybe when he was preparing to set fire to the warehouse, he encountered someone from the top who came to inspect (it actually happened), and maybe he was ready to take action.
At that time, a large-scale patrol appeared from another intersection (which actually happened), and there were some other accidents and so on.
In fact, let’s not talk about these accidents. Some Shangguan just squatted next to the grain depot without doing anything. What can you do?
Take Li Tiao for example. Li Tiao likes to go to the granary when he has nothing to do. In fact, most veterans who came from the Yellow Turbans and are still in the military camp like to go to the granary when they have nothing to do.
In this situation, whoever can be burned, you are lucky if you are not burned.
Therefore, Chen Zhong's purpose from the beginning was to kill 80% of them first, and then concentrate on the rest. While the opponent's heads were all dead, he quickly attacked and killed them all, one by one.
As a result, the current situation is somewhat beyond Chen Zhong's estimation. Even if he kills those gangsters, he divides his troops into more than thirty groups to burn down the warehouse. I'm afraid they won't be able to burn much before they are contained, and they won't be able to survive.
When the turmoil occurred after all the food and grass were burned, Chen Zhong estimated that he would not be able to defeat the people left behind in the Kabul Valley.
After all, Chen Zhong can only kill the heads in one wave, but not the opponent's command system. As long as there is no chaos and the middle and high-level officials can maintain the organization, so many Beigui people who are half civilians and half soldiers can definitely beat Chen Zhong and his subordinates directly.
die.
"Is there any good way?" Chen Zhong was also a little numb at this time. Such a thing happened, and even if he wanted to solve it, he had no way to deal with it. Before, they only thought about dealing with the above-ground granary, and they definitely didn't think about dealing with Chen Xi.
Developed underground granary.
In fact, when Chen Xi designed the underground granary from the beginning, it was for fire prevention.
But now the arrow is on the string and he has to fire it. His group of people have come over, and they heard that Cao Cao is about to attack Oswin. If he can't deal with it now, there will be a problem with the strategic planning.
After all, if Cao Cao wants to contain Oswin, it means that he has to fight some wars that he didn't have to fight, and he has to bear some losses that he doesn't have to bear. This is very fatal.
Of course, Chen Zhong, who was marching slowly on the mountain road, did not know that during the time when he led his troops south to the Kabul Valley, the war situation had already undergone new changes.
The current situation is no longer that Cao Cao took the initiative to contain Oswin as planned before, but that Oswin is preparing to bite Cao Cao to death and launch the Kandahar traitor to see if he can match what was prepared at the Bolun Pass from the previous stage.
The Kushan army cooperated internally and externally to capture Kandahar.
After all, at this stage, both Cao Cao and Oswin saw the hope of victory. Their respective cards could be turned over and over without any reservations. Both sides felt that the goddess of victory began to favor him. In fact, how could
He said, who knows what the goddess of victory is doing recently, maybe she goes out to play every day and doesn't work hard.
"Get this done, I'll give you some blood, Princess, to give you a chance to get the Princess." Chen Zhong said through gritted teeth.
According to the conditions and power of the old Chen family, with some effort, there is actually a way to get a county owner, but getting a princess would be very difficult. This is no longer about giving Liu Tong money and then trying to bribe him.
It is no longer a real problem, but a whole lot of trouble.
At present, the Han Dynasty clan is withering away. The Chen family can still do it by pulling Chen Xi's tiger skin and making a county head in vain. But the county head is really a carrot and a trap. Even Liu Tong knows that the title is banned.
If it's too much, it's worthless, so if you don't want to ban your account, you won't ban it.
Under such circumstances, it would be very difficult for the Chen family to find a princess.
But compared to the difficulty of obtaining the title of princess, the huge profit in front of them is more important. Besides, if this thing is done, even if the Chen family is not satisfied with the title of princess, they still have two or three solutions. At any rate, Chen Zhong can
No, he was just talking about opportunities.
After all, introducing Cao Cao's daughter to Kurma is an opportunity. The Chen family pretends to be dead, and selling Kurma to Liu Yu's daughter as a guard is also an opportunity. Anyway, there are more solutions than difficulties. Let's find a way to get through this first.
Let’s talk about other things later.
Things in the future will be solved in the future, but things in the present must be solved now. We can't really trick Cao Cao to death.
"Princess?" Kurma's eyes shone, but then he realized that it was just an opportunity. "Ten birds in the forest are worse than one in the hand, so I choose County Princess."
"Stop talking nonsense to me and think of a solution quickly. Let everyone think of a solution quickly. Look, Barak has married the princess, and you are still far away from the princess." Chen Zhong said with a dark face, "Brainstorm."
, we must think of a way to kill Oswin's grain and grass."
"Barak is just shit luck. If I were in that position, I would marry the princess." Kurma said unhappily, jealous of Barak and him.
"Speaking of which, Aldashir is attacking Herat recently. If you don't think of a solution quickly, Herat will fall, and the princess may fall into the hands of Aldashir." Chen Zhong said quietly.
, Kurma was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head.
"Archbishop, you don't understand us Yuezhi at all." Kulma shook his head and said, "I'm not joking. Balak may have played every night and not entered the military camp, but the foundation is there, and Gurama can see it.
Even if the strength of my subordinates is reduced, it will not be too serious, but do you know what the nature of mental images is?"
Chen Zhong watched Kurma move slightly and already understood what Kurma meant.
"The mental image is the final reflection of those of us who infect reality with our souls, beliefs, and wills. Will a man who has fulfilled the centuries-old wish of the Great Yuezhi hand over the most precious pearl in his hand to others?" Kull
Ma was very serious when she said this.
"I don't know what Ballack's mental image has become now, but he has definitely become stronger. Hard work and struggle will make people stronger, but the realization of long-cherished wishes will make a qualitative change in people's hearts. The mental image of our Da Yuezhi
There is an absolute state called idealism and solemnity." Kurma looked at Chen Zhong and said quietly.
Chen Zhong recalled some information and nodded. The path of idealism is very difficult to walk, and if you make a wrong step, it is impossible to recover and you can only follow the previous path.
Arvind was a famous general who truly understood the truth and took the only path of idealism. His strength was extremely high, even though he was defeated later.
"The only thing about idealism is that if you make a wrong step, it will be impossible to recover. Although Barak took this path in the early days, he probably made a wrong step later." Chen Zhong thought for a while and said.
"But after making a mistake, he became the only one, and he was the only one who went further than the five generations of heroes in the past hundred years." Kurma said with a smile, and Chen Zhong said in a daze.
"The mental image is the elaboration of a general's own soul and heart. Barak only made a mistake in his theory, but he has actually completed in reality the absolute uniqueness that no one has completed in the past hundred years, so for him, he
He has jumped out of the barriers of his predecessors." Kurma shook his head and said with emotion.
For Barak, no matter how perfect the theories of his predecessors were, just saying "I married the princess" was completely transcendent. No matter how outstanding his predecessors were, they had not reached this point, and he, Barak, was from the north.
The only man who has truly fulfilled his long-cherished wish in a century.
"Actually, you don't understand what the princess means to us. Barak has probably surpassed all the predecessors who have walked on the road of mental imagery." Kurma turned to look at Chen Zhong and said faintly, "I just did it. For
It means nothing to him."
Balak will not lead an army at all. For him, it is worth giving up everything else for Cao Wan. The moment he fulfills the century-old wish of the Dayeshi, there is nothing external that he cannot give up. Everything is
Around staying with the princess.
So even though Barak has far surpassed what he once was, and the intensity of his mental images has reached the most extraordinary level in Beigui for a hundred years, to him, he is not as important as Cao Wan.
