After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1212 Seeing through each other

Regarding Xuanlu Ghost King's request, the superiors also disagreed. Bixia had just suffered a defeat. Not only did they lose Baijian Town, they also lost more than a thousand people. Their morale was damaged and they needed to adjust and recover.

The ghost king suddenly asked for troops to attack Rolling Stone Valley, which put Bixia in a difficult position.

Luo Shengjia had disappeared for the past one hundred and fifty or sixty years, so how could he suddenly appear in Rolling Stone Valley? Even if the information about the Ghost King is correct, the people of Bixia have also heard about the grudge between it and this evil armor.

Luo Shengjia is so powerful, how many people must be sent to deal with it?

Even if Luo Shengjia is really captured, can the Ghost King give it to Visha?

If they send troops, aren't they making wedding clothes for the Ghost King? And it was still when he was weak.

With the fall of Baijian Town, Jucheng is in danger. Logically speaking, all the troops should be used to protect themselves, rather than risking going out of the city to seize some evil armor.

Captain Shi understood that his side had just suffered a defeat, so his strategy for going up the mountain would tend to be conservative.

But he still fought hard because "if the evil armor falls into Situ's hands, it will be more difficult for us to win."

The significance of seizing the evil armor is not necessarily to gain more advantages for one's own side, but to prevent the opponent from taking the lead.

And after Baijian Town was captured, Jucheng became an isolated city and was in urgent need of a new fulcrum. The terrain of Rolling Stone Valley is barely suitable, and it is close to Jucheng. As long as food is delivered in time, it can be temporarily overcome.

"Too few. The Situ family's garrison in Jishi Village alone is three hundred, not to mention the other ambushes." The Ghost King said decisively, "I want two thousand people, and I want it now! There are more than just this small army in Jucheng. !”

Visha and the Ghost King are in a cooperative relationship, and no matter how unwilling they are, they are willing to do so.

"No, go up to the peak and tell me..." Captain Shi was in a state of confusion.

"What if we take Rasheng Kaat...?"

ah? Now?

"What are you afraid of?" The Ghost King looked at him, his eyes flashing red, "You have already committed the crime of dereliction of duty. If you make no further achievements, you will be dismissed from your post when you return. Only by taking down Rolling Stone Valley and Luo Shengjia, can you That's what counts as meritorious deeds. If you seek wealth and honor at risk, you will be punished anyway, so why not take a big chance?"

These words pierced Captain Shi's heart. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. He really had no way out. Do you want to give it a try?

However, as soon as the order for the troops was issued, Xuanlu Ghost King came in and said bluntly: "The action is ahead of schedule, let's go now."

There are more than 3,000 troops in Jucheng, all of them are defenders, 800 of them are assigned to the Ghost King; the remaining 2,000 people are not allowed to leave without receiving orders.

"Eight hundred."

He tried hard to make a speech, but the superiors finally relented and asked him to allocate 800 men and horses to the Xuanlu Ghost King. I don't know whether he was moved by him or whether the Xuanlu Ghost King directly made the request to Vixia.

"Luo Shengjia will leave Rolling Stone Valley tomorrow morning, and it will be useless to send troops tomorrow." Xuanlu Ghost King asked him, "How many men and horses will Bixia allocate to me?"

Captain Shi's scalp hardened: "But we don't have the manpower yet..."

"It belongs to the Bixia people, I won't take it." Xuanlu Ghost King said, "I have already made an agreement with your leader."

Captain Shi felt a little relieved, that's good.

"Besides, my army has arrived and we will fight together."

Captain Shi was overjoyed. The Ghost King had brought all the Yin soldiers under his command? Rarely, rarely, the ghost king's army marches out. Bixia and the Howling Forest have cooperated for so long, and this is the first time they have enjoyed this kind of treatment. "If you send out a large army, you will be invincible!" He immediately gave the order to gather, and then walked to the edge of the sand table, "Do you have an attack strategy?"

"Of course." Xuanlu Ghost King walked over and pointed at the sand table. "The target's surname is He. He invited the whole village to a banquet in Jishi Village tonight, and there was a lot of noise. There were 300 Situ guards and more than 170 miners in the village. , less than twenty villagers, and twenty-six members of their chamber of commerce.”

Captain Shi stroked his chin: "It only takes an hour to get there from Jucheng, even if you walk at night. If two thousand people are fighting against more than three hundred, we should be sure of victory."

Those more than one hundred miners are not considered soldiers.

The Ghost King said coldly: "You also attacked Jishi Village. Didn't you also fail? It seems that the other party organized miners and stopped them outside the village."

Speaking of this embarrassing incident, Captain Shi felt a little embarrassed. However, that was also to get food for the Ghost King.

"The number of men sent at that time was too few, but this time we can defeat them several times and can be wiped out in one fell swoop." The whole village in Jishi Village was having a banquet and was completely defenseless. He thought optimistically that as long as the Bixia people came and went like a gust of wind and fought a beautiful surprise attack, tonight's battle would not be too difficult.

The Ghost King shook his head: "We cannot attack Jishi Village directly."

"Why?"

"The man named He made a big announcement during the banquet, saying that he would return eastward tomorrow morning and take a boat back from Julu Port." The Ghost King said lightly, "Why did he invite the whole village to a banquet at this time? Didn't he want me to be there? Did the village’s eyes and ears hear the news he wanted to release?”

Mrs. Li from Jishi Village worshiped him, but the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce took away the statue and almost demolished her house.

But he still has eyes and ears left in the village. He is an old farmer in his fifties. He is currently eating and drinking on the grain drying ground in Jishi Village, and at the same time he heard clearly what the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce said.

"The man named He wants to lure me to attack Jishi Village tonight." The Ghost King clicked on the sand table, "It's not surprising that you didn't capture Jishi Village last time. The terrain there is good, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now we have added three hundred defenders. It will take a lot of effort to take it by force.”

There are Juma piles and low stone walls outside Jishi Village, which are all fortifications built by local people.

"The most important thing is that the person named He is now a guest of the Situ family. Tonight's banquet was specially invited from outside, and Situ's army will accompany him. Do you think there will be no future for the person named He who dares to lure me over? Hands?"

"Do you think there are more ambush troops in Jishi Village?" Captain Shi frowned, "But the village is limited, and it would be great if it could accommodate three hundred defenders. Where can more ambush troops be hidden?"

"We can't hide in Jishi Village, so of course we have to hide in other places. The distance is close and we have to hide." The Ghost King talked eloquently. He was also a general in charge of troops during his lifetime. These strategies and calculations have long been ruined. "If we attack by force, In Jishi Village, the person named He just needs to hold on for a while and wait for rescue."

Hide the ambush elsewhere? Lieutenant Shi Du was reminded by him, and after looking carefully at the sand table for a few breaths, he finally realized:

"Cotton Village!"

The village they attacked a month ago was only three miles away from Jishi Village on the mountain road. If the horse runs faster, he will be there in a blink of an eye.

What's even better is that all the villagers in Mian Village have been robbed, and now it has become a deserted village. It is also in a mountain col, and people on the road don't go in.

An ideal ambush location indeed.

Situ hid his troops in it. Once the Pixia people attacked Jishi Village, they would come to surround them.

When the time comes, the inside should be coordinated with the outside, tut tut, "The intention is sinister."
