Qin Yuan stood up, gave a military salute to the old man, and walked out of the room.
Outside, Green Snake and He Chenguang had been waiting for him for a long time, bickering and amusing as always.
"How is it? What did the old gentleman say to you?"
Green Snake asked impatiently.
"I didn't say anything, it was all nonsense."
Qin Yuan wrote lightly.
"What? You've been in there for so long, so you must have said something important."
He Chenguang on the side also didn't believe Qin Yuan's lies.
"Why are you lying to me? Am I that kind of person?!"
Qin Yuan was a little unhappy.
"We are here to discuss tactics, not to talk about other irrelevant things."
"Don't forget, our comrade Geng Hu is still in their hands!"
Qin Yuan said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, both of them fell silent.
Qin Yuan was right. They had no time or reason to talk about other things now. Geng Hu was waiting for their rescue in a dark corner.
"Then have you thought of any solution?"
He Chenguang asked.
Qin Yuan nodded.
"I didn't expect that I wouldn't come to see you."
"We faced them head-on this time."
Qin Yuan replied in a deep voice.
"Just the front?"
"Are you not mistaken?! We have hundreds of people fighting against thousands of others?"
Green Snake looked in disbelief.
"Yes, do you have a fever? Or do you think it's too frustrating for us to be pressed down and beaten like this?"
He Chenguang also looked at Qin Yuan doubtfully, his eyes full of confusion.
"Your views are too one-sided."
Qin Yuan smiled.
"You know, what we lack most now is not soldiers or combat effectiveness, but a hearty victory."
"I know you are worried about our combat effectiveness now, but what I want to say is that although we are fighting in an honest and fair manner, this does not prevent me from assigning another small team to serve as an assault force."
Qin Yuan squinted his eyes and said.
"Oh, you still need this method?"
He Chenguang said with a half-smile.
"Of course, as the saying goes, we are not afraid of deceit. We will not confront each other head-on like a stupid young man."
Qin Yuan said.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Several people knew that the next words were the key point.
"Well, after my consideration, I decided that you will be responsible for leading the commando team."
Qin Yuan glanced at Green Snake and said solemnly.
"I?"
Green Snake was a little surprised, because he had always acted with Qin Yuan before, but now he was asked to lead the team by himself, but he was not used to it.
However, he also understood that Qin Yuan must appear in the frontal team, otherwise the other party would definitely become suspicious.
"Isn't Captain He doing the same thing? Why not let him take on this important responsibility?"
Green Snake asked.
"Don't worry, you all have missions. I have other arrangements for him."
Qin Yuan smiled.
"What mission? So mysterious?"
Green Snake asked curiously.
Qin Yuan thought for a while, and there was no problem in assigning tasks here, so he said directly:
"I'm going to arrange for him to track down Geng Hu's whereabouts during the melee."
Qin Yuan said seriously.
"Well, your wishful thinking is really good."
"Although we may not have an advantage on the battlefield, on the silent battlefield, you are a talent second to none!"
Green Snake said with a smile.
Qin Yuan's face was stern and he had no time to pay attention to his compliments.
There was not much time left for them. It was now two o'clock in the afternoon. He had to organize all the troops and horses within this half day and set off in the evening at the latest.
"I will lead the large force to the front to fight them, Green Snake will be responsible for leading the small team to disturb the opponent's rear, and He Chenguang will lead the second team to find Geng Hu's whereabouts. Do you understand the division of labor among each?"
"Go back immediately to reorganize the troops, and our operation will start on time in the early hours of the evening."
Qin Yuan said.
"Wait a minute, how will our troops be distributed?"
He Chenguang asked quickly.
"Free allocation, you decide for yourself, I will not dictate your actions."
"We only have three hundred troops at most now. Each of our teams has fifty, and the rest will be given to Qin Yuan. How about that?"
He Chenguang suggested.
"Can."
Green Snake readily agreed.
"Then it's decided. Let's go back and prepare. We don't have much time left."
Qin Yuan said.
Afterwards, the three of them walked out of the room and returned to the camp.
Qin Yuan summoned all combat-effective soldiers to the front of the formation.
"Soldiers! I know you have been working extremely hard these days, but! I am the same as all of you! I am also exhausted physically and mentally!"
"Please be sure to keep your last breath, because the next battle is related to everyone's life and death!"
"Today, it is very likely that we will have the final battle with Xiao Yan!"
"We will be divided into three teams! I will lead the large force to attack the opponent's real army!"
"Captain He Chenguang and Qing Snake led two teams respectively to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's rear camp!"
“Do you think this tactic is okay?”
Qin Yuan asked the soldiers loudly.
Although he is the commander-in-chief of the troops, logically speaking, only the troops obey his orders, and there is no need to ask the other party.
However, at this juncture, when everyone needs to be united, there is no need for Qin Yuan to follow the same rules as before.
The sergeants below responded in unison without any surprise:
"Obey the captain's arrangements and instructions!"
"Very good! Now, I am going to choose two hundred soldiers to go to the frontline battlefield with me!"
"The remaining one hundred soldiers will be allocated to Qing She and He Chenguang respectively. Anyone who wants to go to the battlefield with me should stand directly on the edge!"
Qin Yuan shouted loudly.
"I am willing to follow Captain Qin Yuan!"
"I do too!"
"I'm coming too!"
Soon, Qin Yuan's side was slowly filled with soldiers from the logistics company like stacks of wooden cards.
Until the end, everyone stood in Qin Yuan's camp, and not a single soldier was left!
"Well, you guys are too enthusiastic."
"What do Qing She and He Chenguang think?"
"This is too embarrassing!"
"Everyone chose to follow Qin Yuan! Qing Snake and He Chenguang have no troops to lead!"
There were waves of riotous discussions at the scene.
Qin Yuan also felt that this was a bit inappropriate, so he said to the soldiers following him:
"I know that all of you really want to follow me on the battlefield to kill the enemy, but! We must abide by discipline!"
"Since I have issued the task this time, and you have agreed! Then, we cannot ignore this rule!"
"That's it! We follow the first-come, first-served rule! The two hundred soldiers standing at the front! Come with me!"
In this way, it is fair and does not damage the dignity of the soldiers, which is a more reasonable solution.
"Okay! We listen to you!"
Although some soldiers who arrived late had no choice but to comply with Qin Yuan's suggestions.
Some people who came later consciously returned to their original places.
After that, Qing She and He Chenguang each selected a group of warriors to form their own teams.
By around nine o'clock in the evening, the logistics company's preparations were basically completed.
Everyone in each team has prepared guns and ammunition, military rations, and various auxiliary equipment.
A team of three hundred people is ready to go at any time.
Before leaving, Qin Yuan came to the old man's room again.
"Why, you haven't set off yet?"
the old man asked.
"Right now, isn't it time to come over and say goodbye to you?"
Qin Yuan said with a smile.
"Looking at what you said, it sounds like there is no return."
The old man also laughed.
"Of course, just in case, I will come here to say goodbye to you this time."
Qin Yuan's expression was very relaxed.
The old man smiled.
"Don't be ridiculous, I'm still waiting to go back with you to see my daughter. You promise me you will take me back."
There was a sparkle in the old man's eyes.
Qin Yuan had a helpless and miserable smile on his face.
"Yes, I promise you."
Afterwards, the two of them stopped talking, and a few minutes later, Qin Yuan left the room.
Time flies by in the early hours of the night.
It was time for them to set off.
The whole army of the logistics company has been fully prepared.
"Everyone, let's go!"
Qin Yuan stood at the front and gave an order.
Hundreds of people rushed out like a black whirlwind, groping forward into the darkness ahead.
The vanguard led by Qin Yuan rushed to the front. After several hours of reconnaissance, they had roughly grasped the opponent's location.
It's less than two kilometers away from their location.
And at the same time.
In the camp of the opponent's Xiaoyan troops.
A soldier hurriedly ran into a large camp.
"Governor! The sixth, second, and fifth detachments have all failed!"
Sitting in the middle is a muscular middle-aged man.
It was Dong Zhejun.
At this time, his face was ashen, as if he had been kicked by a donkey, and he was very embarrassed.
I saw him picking up the cup at hand and throwing it to the ground.
"Get out of here!"
Dong Zhejun shouted.
The soldier hurriedly ran out of the tent on his knees and crawling on the ground.
Of course Dong Zhejun knew what happened to his troops!
It's one day behind the expected time, and the troops haven't come back yet!
This means there must have been an accident!
The soldier's answer just now confirmed his suspicion.
Another burst of anger surged out of Dong Zhejun's heart!
Logistics company!
It has become the biggest thorn in his side in his life!
Defeat the power of several of his legions in a row!
This not only made him deeply uneasy and angry, but also made the Xiaoyan organization lose face!
Although they only lost a small part of their troops, Di Daozhang, the captain of the sixth detachment, was his proud general!
Losing such a powerful general is a huge loss to Dong Zhejun!
Thinking of this, Dong Zhejun even shed tears on his face.
Dong Zhejun was silent while wiping his tears.
A man in black military uniform on the side spoke to comfort him:
"Governor, although we lost four troops at once, the other party has also been affected to a certain extent. I believe their losses are not small."
This person's voice was calm and calm, with a hint of coldness in his words, like a ruthless character.
"Captain Jin, what do you think we should do?"
Dong Zhejun slowly raised his head and asked sadly.
The man named Captain Jin smiled slightly, then leaned towards Dong Zhejun's ear and whispered a few words to him.
Dong Zhejun's face immediately changed from a sad look to a happy one.
...
Fifteen minutes later.
The logistics company brigade led by Qin Yuan is on the way forward.
The group of people was marching forward solemnly and neatly, and unlike the previous march in secret, this time they were marching forward with great fanfare and momentum.
Their flag-waving and shouting could be heard within a kilometer radius.
Although there were not many people, they really showed momentum.
As for Xiaoyan, he had long been attracted by this domineering logistics company.
"Sir! It's the logistics company! They are so arrogant this time!"
"He kept shouting that we should be driven out and killed!"
"It's so deceiving! These people! They beat four of our teams! And now they even come to our door themselves!"
"They really don't know how to live or die! We need to let them see what hell is!"
After receiving the provocation from the soldiers of the logistics company, Xiaoyan's soldiers were already hungry and thirsty, and vowed to go into battle and fight to the death.
"Sir! What do you say?! Their obvious provocation? Can we tolerate it?"
"Besides, our soldiers are dozens of times more than theirs! It's unreasonable to be a coward like this!"
The soldiers petitioned one after another to go into battle and fight to the death with the logistics company.
Of course, the short officer at the head was very clear about their psychology. Like them, he was full of endless resentment towards the logistics company. However, he had no choice but to hold a low position. He was just the captain of a reconnaissance team at the outpost and had no power to command the army.
, can only wait for orders from above.
"I know you are in a hurry, but please don't be in a hurry."
He couldn't help but feel excited, and he was already a little incoherent.
The soldiers were very dissatisfied when they heard this.
But after all, they also know that as soldiers, they must abide by the orders of the troops. They can only keep beating their chests and stamping their feet on the spot. There is nothing they can do.
And why hasn’t the order been issued yet?
Because Dong Zhejun followed Captain Jin's advice.
Choose the approach of waiting for work.
Captain Jin suggested this to him. If the opponent's logistics company dares to come so impulsively to fight with them, they must be prepared. If they fight according to the opponent's wishes, they will definitely not gain anything.
Although Xiaoyan has a large army and requires a lot of living resources, they have a stable supply chain behind them. The resources in Baizhi Tower are inexhaustible, and it only takes half a day to transport them here.
As long as the safety of the transportation channel is ensured, we can engage in a war of attrition with the logistics company. When the time comes, they will be the first to be unable to withstand it.
I have to say that Dong Zhejun's wishful thinking was very clever.
