In the next few days, Xia Jun seemed a little at a loss when facing Yelang's army who had hidden in the Ghost Valley. He tried several times to test, but was almost captured by Yelang's army.
Yelang's army was extremely proud, thinking that with the convenience of the location, the Xia army would not be able to take any advantage. However, they did not know that the Xia army had a different scene.
"General, the branches and twigs prepared by Mr. Wang are already ready. They are all wet branches and twigs that were found according to the instructions. But the general is thinking about whether it will be too big if these branches and twigs are piled up there.
Is it too irritating?" Lieutenant General Lin's eyes were a bit worried.
Hearing this, Liu Yinfeng shook his head: "Our camp needs to provide so many soldiers with water for cooking, and firewood is indispensable. It rained and snowed a few days ago, and the branches on the mountain are already damp. We
It is a very normal thing to chop wet firewood and pile it up to dry in the sun when the weather is nice, and it is not at all strange."
Vice General Lin nodded and said with a smile: "Sir, it's better to think carefully about when we will take action."
Liu Yinfeng smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, Duoji must be very proud now. He feels that if we want to attack, we can only attack in the dark at most, and the defense at night will not be relaxed. But if we don't light an open fire at night,
It is smoked only with smoke, but it is almost impossible to see the smoke. Besides, except for the night watchmen, everyone in Yelang's army is sleeping. Even if they want to withdraw after discovering it, they will not move too fast. This is our opportunity.
Where..."
Liu Yinfeng paused: "Now our branches are all ready, we just need to find a night with the right wind direction. There has been no wind these two nights, so we shouldn't be too hasty. Why don't we go and take a look at Dr. Shen's
How is the medicine going?"
Because this matter had to be hidden from other people in the army, Sun Bingzhi also assigned a separate tent to Shen Banxue. When he arrived outside Shen Banxue's tent, Sun Bingzhi was about to lift up the felt and go in, but was pulled by Liu Yinfeng.
Yinfeng knocked on the door, and Shen Banxue's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Sun Bingzhi looked at Liu Yinfeng inexplicably, then lifted up the blanket again and walked in. He also said: "You learned people can't understand why you knocked on the door. We just went in directly."
Shen Banxue was busy. When he heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Yinfeng, but said nothing.
Sun Bingzhi was startled by the sight in front of him. The hairs on his arms stood up. He hesitated and took a step back before asking, "What are you doing?"
Liu Yinfeng also frowned and looked at Shen Banxue, with a bit of disapproval in his eyes.
Shen Banxue's tent was filled with small cages. There were rats and rabbits in the cages, but without exception, they were all dead.
Shen Banxue smiled and said, "Isn't it because I don't know how effective the medicine is, so I'll try it first."
Sun Bingzhi finally regained his breath slightly, but he still felt a little fuzzy. He shook a little exaggeratedly, and then said with a smile: "It seems that the effect is quite good, but it's a pity that there are so many mice and rabbits.
It can add some meat to the soldiers."
"It doesn't matter. I have always made a habit. After making poison, I will make an antidote. When cooking these meats, I will cook the antidote together and everything will be fine." Shen Banxue lowered his head and touched the only one that was still alive in his hand.
Rabbit said.
Sun Bingzhi trembled again and shook his head violently: "Forget it, let's find a way to bury it. It makes me scared just thinking about it."
Liu Yinfeng's face was completely calm. He walked around the camp with his hands behind his back before speaking: "Is the amount enough? After all, it is going to be put in smoke to poison Yelang's army of tens of thousands of people."
Shen Banxue nodded: "That's enough. In the past few days, when General Sun arranged for soldiers to go up the mountain to collect various branches, he picked up a lot of needed medicinal materials and came down the mountain. Moreover, this poison is very strong, and it doesn't take much to achieve the effect." .Besides, didn’t you say, sir, that there is no need to poison all of Yelang’s army? I know what’s appropriate.”
Liu Yinfeng nodded lightly: "That's good. Although Yelang's army has done many evil things, I can't kill nearly 100,000 people. After they wake up from coma, if they are willing to surrender, we are willing to accept it. If you don’t want to, then it’s not our fault.”
When I came out of Shen Banxue's tent, the sky was gradually getting dark, but it was still calm.
Sun Bingzhi raised his eyes and looked at the sky, with a bit of worry on his face: "If there is no wind for ten days and half a month, what can we do?"
Liu Yinfeng walked towards his tent without stopping: "We have to wait, we have no other choice now."
Fortunately, they were not kept waiting for too long. On the afternoon of the third day, the wind began to pick up, with the wind blowing from south to north, and the wind was quite strong.
Liu Yinfeng was taking a nap when he was woken up by the excited voices of Sun Bingzhi and three lieutenants: "Sir, sir, the wind is blowing."
Liu Yinfeng frowned and woke up. He didn't know what he was dreaming about, but there was a bit of cold sweat on his forehead.
Sun Bingzhi entered the camp and saw Liu Yinfeng taking a nap. He was stunned for a moment with his mouth open, and then he became a little embarrassed and said, "Sir, he is taking a nap, but I am disturbing him."
Liu Yinfeng raised his hand and wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, then took a deep breath: "It's okay, it came...just right."
Just after he finished speaking, he seemed to be in a daze. Sun Bingzhi and the three lieutenants did not know what happened, and they were all in a daze. After a long while, Liu Yinfeng came back to his senses: "Is the wind blowing?"
The four of them became happy again: "Yes, the wind has picked up. The wind direction is the same as what Mr. wanted, and the wind is not light."
Liu Yinfeng nodded: "What time is it now?"
"It's time to announce, it's time to announce." Vice General Sun responded with a smile.
"Shen Shi." Liu Yinfeng repeated it again, and then said: "Wait a little longer, the wind may stop at any time. General Sun can prepare first and take a look later."
The four of them agreed, then said their goodbyes and left Liu Yinfeng's camp.
Liu Yinfeng frowned and lay down again.
Uncle Qin walked to the bed and looked at it, then lowered his voice and asked, "Did the young master have a nightmare?"
Liu Yinfeng nodded gently, as if he was still immersed in a dream, unable to come back to his senses. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Uncle Qin: "I dreamed that something happened to Ayun. Recently, because of entering the camp, I haven’t communicated with Jincheng for a while. Send someone to ask if anything happened in the palace recently."
Uncle Qin was stunned for a moment, but finally couldn't refuse his young master, so he agreed: "Hey, I'll send someone to ask."
Liu Yinfeng slowly closed his eyes, and secretly closed and loosened his hands in his sleeves, loosened and closed them again. Seeing that Liu Yinfeng had no other instructions, Uncle Qin took a few steps back.
Liu Yinfeng seemed to hear the footsteps, then he opened his eyes again, gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, there's no need to ask."
Uncle Qin was stunned again, and then he quickly responded.
Lifting his eyes and seeing Liu Yinfeng's lips moving again, Uncle Qin hurriedly said: "Old slave, let's go see what's going on outside. It's windy today and the young master can't get wind from his body. I'll go find Shen."
Doctor, get some medicine."
After saying that, he hurriedly left.
Hearing this, Liu Yinfeng smiled bitterly, lowered his head, and murmured softly: "I know I can't do it, but I still can't help but want to do it. Even if everything is useless, I still want to hear everything about you."
Good news."
The wind outside showed no sign of letting up, and was still blowing until the evening. The lights in the commander's camp were always on. This operation did not require too many people, just as a precaution, the army was still full
The assembly is complete.
Halfway through the hour, Liu Yinfeng came out of the tent wearing a big cloak, stretched out his hand to test the wind, and said, "It's time."
This time, Sun Bingzhi personally led the troops in action. Deputy General Sun and Deputy General Yang, who went out with Sun Bingzhi, had all been fully equipped, put on a suit of armor, and were ready to set off.
Liu Yinfeng stood at the door and looked at him with a smile: "Waiting for the good news from the generals."
Sun Bingzhi burst out laughing, responded with a sonorous voice, and said with a smile: "I will certainly live up to your expectations, sir." After saying that, he cupped his hands and left with the two lieutenants.
The sound of horse hooves, armor, and footsteps came. Liu Yinfeng looked quietly at the faint light of the torch, but his eyes were extremely calm. This battle must be won. However, this battle is
The real beginning.
Everyone said that what he was best at was knowing himself and the enemy and fighting a hundred battles with no danger of defeat. Therefore, he also deeply understood that since Luo Qingyan had started this battle, he definitely wanted to take the Yelang Kingdom into his pocket. This
The battle can tear the Yelang Kingdom away from Cangnan, but I'm afraid it will still be long in the future.
Liu Yinfeng turned around and saw Shen Banxue in the distance, looking in the direction of the sound. As if aware of Liu Yinfeng's gaze, Shen Banxue turned around, paused slightly, and walked to Liu Yinfeng.
Next to Yinfeng: "Sir, do you think we can win this battle?"
Hu Bo heard it from the side and said with a smile: "Doctor Shen, don't worry, with our young master here, we will definitely win."
"Amber." Liu Yinfeng called out Amber's name softly, with a hint of warning.
Amber stuck out her tongue and turned her head to the side.
Shen Banxue heard Hu Hu's words clearly, and smiled and said: "Mr. Liu is really beyond my expectation. He can be a teacher, survey the terrain, and be a military advisor. Although I have never been with the imperial court.
I have made friends with officials, but I also feel that a person from the Hanlin Academy may not have such powerful abilities."
"Doctor Shen is so complimentary. I just read too many military books and have some self-righteous skills. It's getting late, so Dr. Shen should go back to the camp and rest early." Liu Yinfeng smiled, with a faint look on his face.
Serve thinly and cool.
After saying that, he ignored Shen Banxue's reaction and went straight to his tent.
Early on the next morning, Sun Bingzhi had not yet led his troops back to the camp, but he had already sent soldiers to deliver an urgent report: "Yelang's army has lost more than 70,000 people, and the exact number has not yet been counted."
Liu Yinfeng was shocked when he heard this. How could it be like this? Wasn't it just a coma? How could nearly 70,000 people be lost? (To be continued)
