Chapter 300

Xu Shenji woke up the next day and found that the house was empty, and there was an empty wine jar in the house. As for what he did and said last night, Xu Shenji forgot everything, and he only realized one thing: Mu Changgeng escaped.

He hurriedly told Cheng Dalei the news, but Cheng Dalei didn't react much, just said casually: "Let's go, by the way, you didn't say anything to him, right?"

"How come?" Xu Shenji patted his chest and said, "I've been guarding against him, and I haven't told him anything." ”

"That's good. Cheng Dalei still believed Xu Shenji's tone, and he said: "Aren't there still a few people, send someone to watch closely and see what they do." ”

Cheng Dalei investigated the mole and really found a few people, all of whom were left in the blacksmith shop to exercise. After so long, some people couldn't stand the torture and quietly withdrew, and now there are still a few people in the blacksmith shop who are enduring.

For these people, they naturally have to be guarded against.

As for the escape of the pastor Changgeng, Cheng Dalei really didn't pay too much attention to it, and after writing it down in his heart, he began to be busy with other things.

It is said that the shepherd Geng left the toad village by swimming in the water, and he had to be careful of the poisonous snakes in the shallows along the way, and finally wasted the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, and finally successfully landed on the shore.

In the evening of the same day, he finally returned to Qinchuan Pass, at this moment, his whole body was exhausted and collapsed, and he was supported by one breath.

"Hey, is this the pastoral captain......

The doorkeeper caught him, and he didn't dare to recognize it for a while. Only half a month has passed, and Mu Changgeng has lost weight, his face is black and rough, and his hands are covered with thick calluses.

"Go to the general, find the general......"

Mu Changgeng was carried into Qinchuan Pass, drank some gruel, and fed some ginseng soup before he woke up and recovered some strength.

"Brother Mu, you have finally returned, and we thought you had been poisoned by thieves. "Mo Mingmi.

Pastor Geng burst into tears before he could say anything, thinking of what had happened in the past few days, and grievances were tumbling up.

"General, General, I thought I would never see you again in my life. ”

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Mo Mingmi patted him on the shoulder.

"Did you find any news?" Yan Di asked.

Shepherd Changgeng nodded: "Fortunately, the task assigned by the general has finally been completed." ”

Retreating left and right, only Yan Di, Mo Mingmi and Mu Changgeng on the sickbed were left in the room.

Mu Changgeng coughed and said, "The news came from Xu Shenji's mouth. ”

"Is that the Xu Shenji who is known as a clever man?" Yan Di's eyes lit up.

Shepherd Geng nodded heavily: "It's him." ”

"Yan Junshi has also heard of him?" Mo Mingmi asked.

"Naturally, I heard it. Yan Di showed a look of fascination: "The general doesn't know, this Xu Shenji is the most powerful person around Cheng Dalei, the army of the Rong clan in Qingniu Mountain, and the assassination of Yang Longzhu in Chang'an are all up to him, otherwise things will never be done so easily." ”

"There is such a great man in the world. Mo Mingmi sighed with emotion, quite regretful that such a talent could not be used by me.

"I also know that Xu Shenji is very clever, and he has always been careful to be vigilant, and he doesn't dare to show his flaws in front of him. Until he gained his trust, drunk him last night, and tricked him out of his mouth. ”

"Xu Shenji is a person from Toad Village, how could he think of a way to break the village?" Yan Di asked.

"Master Yan doesn't know this. According to Xu Shenji, those who defend must first know how the opponent attacks, and those who attack must first know how the opponent defends. With the method of breaking the village, we can know how to prescribe the right medicine. ”

"I see. Yan Di shook his head, quite a feeling of sighing to himself, willing to bow to the wind.

Mo Mingmi glanced at Yan Di, and the meaning in his eyes was: Your realm is still far from Xu Shenji.

"What did Xu Shenji say?"

"He only said eight words to me. Shepherd Geng lowered his voice and said word by word: "If you want to break the cottage, you should attack it with fire." ”

Mo Mingmi and Yan Di glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise and surprise in each other's eyes. Yan Di was stunned for a long time before he said, "Captain Mu, don't you know that the toad village is on an island......

The next words, Yan Di did not speak: There is water on all sides!

Isn't it nonsense to attack with fire on an island surrounded by water on all sides?

Mo Mingmi said: "Could it be that Xu Shenji has already seen through the Mu brothers, so he deliberately used words to deceive the Mu brothers, and used a plan to lure the king into the urn." ”

"No, it won't. Shepherd Geng shook his head: "I also thought about this problem on the way back, if it is really a plan to lure soldiers, I should say a strategy that is more like the real one, because this fire attack plan is not real, but it is true." ”

Mo Mingmi and Yan Di nodded at the same time, both feeling that Shepherd Changgeng's words were reasonable.

"But this fire attack plan...... How, exactly, do that?"

Mu Changgeng sat up straight on the sickbed and said, "I want to ask the general and the military advisor, if we talk about the understanding of the toad village, can we compare to Xu Shenji, if we talk about sharp vision and clever strategy, can we compare to Xu Shenji?"

"This ......" Yan Di shook his head: "For Xu Shenji, I am willing to bow down." ”

"That's it, the fire attack plan is Xu Shenji's heartfelt words, so it will definitely work. It's just ......" Mu Changgeng sighed: "With our intelligence, we can't keep up with Xu Shenji's train of thought." ”

Mo Mingmi and Yan Di nodded at the same time, and they deeply agreed with Mu Changgeng's words in their hearts.

"Now let's think about it, what should we do with this fire attack plan?" Mo Mingmi sighed: "Now that the answer has been given to us, we don't know anything about how to solve the problem, this Xu Shenji ...... It's really high. ”

"General, as soon as I leave, Xu Shenji must be vigilant, this matter must be fast, if he is on guard, we will miss this foolproof opportunity. ”

"I understand. ”

The three of them stayed up all night, took out the map of Toad Island, and studied how to break the village. On the next morning, Mo Mingmi ordered ten large ships and fifty small boats, with a total strength of more than 5,000 troops, and many of them were equipped with sulfur and gunpowder and other fire-causing things.

Mo Mingmi's plan was like this, first use rockets to burn the ships on Toad Island, so that the other party will lose the ability to launch the water. Then they landed on the beach and engaged in hand-to-hand combat on the island, with the key goal of burning down the buildings, docks, and granaries of Toad Village. As long as the granary of Toad Village is destroyed, the thieves of Toad Village will not break themselves.

When he thought of this method, Mo Mingmi breathed a sigh of relief, Xu Shenji gave the answer, he had the idea of solving the problem in one night, it seems that the gap between himself and Xu Shenji is not as big as he imagined.

Of course, this is just his own idea, in fact, how big the gap between Xu Shenji and him is definitely beyond his imagination.

This is a battle that must be won, led by Mo Mingmi himself, sent 5,000 troops, and attacked Toad Village.
