"Zongzong's signs indicate that those people are ready to rebel, but they know the strength of the imperial court, so they shouldn't be so impulsive, right?" Ming Ri whispered from the side.
"It's a very important matter, and there can't be any accidents. No matter whether they want to start a war right away, we must be prepared. We have to find ways to create some trouble for them and delay them for some time. As long as we delay it for a few days, even the imperial army will still be unable to do anything.
Once the assembly is completed, we can also buy some time for our follow-up actions!"
"Then how can we delay time? That guy Yue Buqun is in Datong Mansion. If the four of us rush in to take a look, we will definitely be discovered in advance!"
Shaantian was silent for a moment and then said, "Where are the food and fodder for these armies in the north stored?"
Regarding the problem of food and grass, Zeng Yidao saw in the documents he came into contact with that some of the food and grass were in the garrison in various places. Apart from the food and grass, the largest one should be in the military supply granary not far from the General Military Mansion!
When Shantian learned about this situation, a smile instantly appeared on his face! "Then it would be easy to do it. Burn down their granary. As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go before food and grass are used. If there is not enough food and grass, they will definitely find a way to requisition food.
, as long as we get through these few days, we can smoothly carry out the following plans!"
"Burn it? Actually, I don't think it's as effective as poisoning. If soldiers are poisoned on a large scale, they won't be able to start a war even if they want to!"
After listening to Zeng Yi's words, Shantian shook his head, "I know that under the current situation, it is best to poison a large area, but there is a problem. The poisoning must be carried out from granary to granary. There are too few people and it will be exposed."
The possibility is too great!”
The four of them looked at Zeng Yi again, and Zeng Yi was also speechless. The meaning of the four of them was obvious. Because Yue Buqun, a super master, was here, they could not enter Datong Mansion rashly now, and the military supplies granary was in Datong Mansion.
Only Zeng Yilai could complete this task.
Returning to Datong Prefecture, Zeng Yi did not pretend to be an official's residence, but went directly to the granary. Grain is the top priority of army logistics, and the leading generals naturally knew that they had equipped thousands of elite troops there.
.
Thousands of elites, even top-notch masters, would not dare to use steel, and Zeng Yi would certainly not dare to do so. But facing the guards with three steps, one post, five steps, and one sentry, it was basically impossible to sneak in. "What the hell are we going to do!"
"
Zeng Yi, who had no clue, hurriedly contacted the three bosses and asked them to help think of a solution. The two guys, the boss and the third child, who had no brains at all, were of no use at all, and only the fourth child was.
The goods can give some suggestions.
The fourth child thought for a while and then said: "The current situation is that you are the only one in Datong Mansion. It is basically impossible to break through the defenders. According to my suggestion, you can use bows and arrows to strike from a distance!"
"You mean rocket?"
"Yes, rocket! And the wind is strong in the north. As long as the fire starts, the wind will help the fire, and it will only get bigger and bigger!"
"Fuck! If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten that I have a rare archery skill in the world!"
Zeng Yi hid on the roof of a house not far from the granary and took out the dragon-snake bow that was almost rusty from his backpack. The rocket was attached to the arrowhead of the bow with igniters, and then shot to the enemy to cause burning.
Planting arrows and rockets seems simple, but because the arrows are attached with fire starters, they no longer maintain balance. To hit the arrows, you need extremely high archery talent and skills.
Fortunately, Zeng Yi's halberd and arrow shooting skills at Yuanmen are very powerful. There is no problem in hitting the rocket. He looked at the right time and shot the first arrow. Zeng Yi was condescending. After shooting the first arrow, he immediately hid. Those who have been on the battlefield all year round
The soldiers who came out of the gang have very good eyesight. Many of them can deduce the approximate position of the shooter from the arrows!
The climate in the north is dry, and those grains are natural fuel. When a rocket went down, a raging fire immediately broke out in a granary. Once the fire started, the soldiers guarding the granary were in chaos. Zeng Yi took advantage of this opportunity and quickly fired several shots.
As a result, several granaries nearby also burst into flames quickly.
Zeng Yi shot more than a dozen arrows, almost without missing a beat. A dozen granaries were all on fire. But this only accounted for less than half of the entire granary. Zeng Yi really wanted to get a few more, but the soldiers below,
Already reacting, "Someone is attacking! It seems to be in the northwest! Go and have a look at a group of people!"
Hearing in the distance that someone had discovered his trace, Zeng Yi knew that he could not stay any longer. He immediately put away the Dragon Snake Bow, turned and left the place, and did not continue to act. The fire in the granary was so big that the men and horses of the General Military Mansion
He must have discovered it already. If he didn't leave, Zeng Yi was afraid of being blocked there.
Immediately, Zeng Yi returned to the official appearance he had pretended to be for a few days, and Zeng Yi quietly returned to his old house and lay down to rest. After Zeng Yi rested, the guards in Datong Mansion began to get busy.
It is already known that the fire in the granary was caused by someone deliberately sabotaging it. Of the thousands of soldiers, most of them were fighting the fire and rescuing the food inside. The remaining few soldiers were searching for Zeng Yi throughout the city.
Zeng Yi rushed to work the next day and found that the officials of the General Military Mansion in Datong all had gloomy faces. Seeing the looks of those people, Zeng Yi knew that his work last night must have caused a lot of losses to the General Military Mansion.
Zeng Yi learned from the few words of those people that his work last night caused a fire in the largest granary in the north, and more than half of the food was lost. That was the food prepared by the General Military Mansion for a hundred thousand troops, and it was burned
Halfway through, the officials of the General Military Mansion were certainly not in a good mood.
Several leading generals at the General's Residence were very angry. They had so much food and grass destroyed under their noses, which was a slap in their faces. Moreover, because of the destruction of the food, a logistics meeting for a hundred thousand troops was caused.
Encountered something very troublesome.
In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the 100,000-strong army, the leading generals had to once again send out troops to various places to collect grain. As a person who specializes in handling documents, Zeng Yi naturally saw orders to collect grain. This shows that in recent years,
God, until the food supply is restored to its previous state, the northern army will never take the initiative to launch a rebellion.
The delay plan was generally very successful, but it only delayed for a few days. With the influence of those officers in the north, it would take less than a few days to collect enough food. A few days does not count.
However, the imperial army was still unable to complete the assembly task. In the end, Zeng Yi and others had to come up with follow-up plans.
