    The weather in November has become increasingly cold.  However, the warm winter sun shines during the day, and the sun shines on people's bodies. It is warm and comfortable, and they don't feel very cold.

    Especially since soldiers are always on the move, they don¡¯t feel much coldness during strenuous exercise.

    The army led by Wang Qi rushed all the way from Yingchuan. Now, it has entered Feiguo County in Taishan County and is getting closer and closer to Mengshan Mountain.

    Nearly noon, the army stopped to rest.

    The cook began to make rice in the pot.

    Wang Qi, Xiao Qingzhi, Zhuge Feng, and Zhu Shanchang sat opposite each other and talked about what they had seen and heard along the way.

    Xiao Qingzhi is now the leader of the army.

    He is responsible for commanding the army.

    Xiao Qingzhi looked around at the soldiers with a proud look on his face and said with a smile: "Sir, we have gone through fifteen battles from Yingchuan County to Taishan County today."

    "Among them, there were two major battles and thirteen minor battles."

    "So far, the number of our wounded soldiers is 436, and there are still more than 1,100 survivors. But the combat effectiveness of the remaining more than 1,000 people is no longer the same."

    Xiao Qingzhi said with emotion: "The combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly improved. In fact, the soldiers of the army are no longer scattered. They have cohesion and a common goal."

    "All soldiers have recognized their identities."

    ¡°Everyone regards themselves as soldiers.¡±

    "This is a real soldier, not an ordinary family private soldier. Although our army is smaller in number, its combat effectiveness has actually been greatly improved compared to before."

    "Speaking of which, this army really needs to fight in order to be tempered."

    Xiao Qingzhi said: "Without this, everything is in vain. Only when the army has undergone real baptism of blood can it sharpen its edge and possess combat effectiveness."

    Today, Xiao Qingzhi is quite complacent.

    Even though he was just a county captain, Xiao Qingzhi¡¯s heart was full of fighting spirit.

    Full of expectations.

    Zhu Shanchang smiled and said: "Xiao County Lieutenant, the reason why we can sharpen our soldiers now is actually because the bandits we met along the way are not strong enough, but they can be sharpened. Take the two wars as an example, if the young master did not take action personally,  Our army has been dispersed a long time ago. Only with the young master here can we turn the tide. The tempering of the army can continue. The strength of the army can continue to improve. "

    Xiao Qingzhi smiled and said: "What Zhu County Cheng said is true. The tempering of the army does require the superposition of various factors. Simply tempering the army will fall apart if you don't pay attention."

    "Before the army has formed combat effectiveness, once it loses, it loses its fighting spirit. We have fought fifteen times in a row, and we have won every time. We have won one battle after another, and the army has been sharpened again and again."

    Xiao Qingzhi said: "All this is not easy!"

    Zhu Shanchang is now the county magistrate.

    This is the position of Nanyang County Magistrate.

    The two men now have official positions under Wang Qi's command.

    ??In fact, for both of them, neither of them care much about official positions.  After all, both Xiao Qingzhi and Zhu Shanchang have extremely outstanding abilities.

    Being an official of a small Nanyang County is really not worth mentioning.

    Wang Qi listened to the words of the two men and said: "No matter what, the more than a thousand of us are considered to have combat effectiveness. It is precisely that the number of troops is getting smaller and smaller. When we enter Nanyang County, bandits will come to rob us."

    Xiao Qingzhi said: "What the young master said is true."

    "Da da!"

    Suddenly, a war horse appeared on the official road ahead, galloping towards them.

    The war horses are galloping, and the sentinels are galloping towards them.

    After a short time, the sentinel came to Wang Qi's side, turned over and dismounted and said: "Sir, this is the latest news sent back from the front line. All the passes, mountains, rivers and dangerous places ahead are explained in detail."

    As he spoke, the detective handed over the latest letter.

    Wang Qi took it and looked through it. After reading the information in the letter, he handed it to Zhuge Feng, and then passed it on to everyone one by one.

    Wang Qidao: "For now, the next step we have to face is the Mengshan area. According to the news analysis, Mengshan has a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there may be bandits entrenched. But now, we have no control over the area.  We don¡¯t know enough about the situation in Feiguo County, and we don¡¯t know the details of the bandits on Mengshan Mountain yet.¡±

    ? ?Qingzhi said solemnly: "Master, our target this time is not Mengshan. Even if there are bandits on Mengshan, we are not afraid. The most critical point is that our army has sufficient combat effectiveness.  If the bandits from Mengshan come to attack us, we will have to fight. The soldiers in the army are not afraid of war now."

    Wang Qi nodded.

    Today¡¯s army has a fighting spirit and its combat effectiveness has been gathered.

    Therefore, Wang Qi doesn¡¯t have much to worry about.

    Wang Qi just ordered the sentinels to keep an eye on Mengshan's movements and ignored Mengshan's situation for the time being.

    The troops had lunch, took a short rest, and then continued on their way.

    The distance to Mengshan is getting closer and closer.

    When the army led by Wang Qi was less than ten miles away from Mengshan, another sentinel came back on Pegasus and came to Wang Qi's side. He said loudly: "Sir, there is the latest news. The sentry from the front line observation sent back  According to the news, there must be soldiers ambushing us in the forests at the foot of Meng Mountain. Because there are birds hovering above the mountains and forests, and they never want to leave."

    Wang Qi nodded and said: "I know, let's explore again!"

    The sentry quickly left.

    Wang Qi looked at Zhuge Feng and others and said: "Now the situation in Mengshan has been determined. The bandits in Mengshan are obviously trying to ambush us. Now that the other party has arranged such a method, how do you think we can break through it?"  enemy?"

    Wang Qi never cared about dealing with the Mengshan bandits.

    A mere dream mountain bandit is not worth mentioning.

    The specific strategy and formation of troops depend on what Zhuge Feng and Xiao Qingzhi say.

    Zhuge Feng thought for a while and said: "Second brother, I think this matter is actually very simple. Now that we know that there are bandits entrenched in the forests of Mengshan Mountain, we will use them to hide in the mountains and use a big fire to kill them.  Burn down Mengshan.¡±

    "Now that winter has entered, there are dead branches and leaves everywhere. Although there is no dry environment in summer, there is even some tide in the mountains. But there are fires in the mountains and thick smoke is billowing. Their ambush will inevitably fail."

    "The bandits in Mengshan will definitely be in trouble."

    Zhuge Feng said: "When the time comes, it will be easy to destroy the Mengshan bandits."

    Wang Qi nodded and said nothing more, "Xiao Qingzhi, what do you think?"

    Xiao Qingzhi said: "Sir, I think the strategy of burning mountains and forests is not very appropriate. The simplest reason is that the mountains are too big, and it will take a lot of time for the fire to really burn. Even if the mountains are wet, they may not be able to burn.  Get up. During this period, the Mengshan bandits can take the opportunity to escape. After all, we have not trapped them to death."

    Wang Qi asked: "In that case, what is your strategy?"

    Xiao Qingzhi said solemnly: "The humble strategy is to lure the snake out of the hole and then ambush the opponent. We pretended not to know and continued on our way. When the opponent started to ambush and attack, we pretended to retreat and attracted the bandits to fight. Then, we attacked in one go and destroyed them.  The strength of the Mengshan bandits.¡±

    Zhuge Feng shook his head and said, "I still stick to my strategy."

    Xiao Qingzhi said no more.

    Which strategy to choose is Wang Qi¡¯s decision, and it depends on how Wang Qi arranges it.

    Wang Qi thought for a while and said: "This time, I will use my brother's strategy, but it needs to be adjusted. The reason is very simple. If we have more troops, we can use the strategy of luring the snake out of the hole, attracting the Mengshan bandits to attack, and finally start to counterattack."

    "It's just that we don't have many troops now. Once we take the initiative to enter the opponent's ambush circle and let the opponent ambush us, first of all, our soldiers will definitely be damaged."

    "We only have more than a thousand people. If we lose any more, even if we lose two or three hundred people, the loss will be too great. Especially if we have to retreat, once we retreat, the soldiers will still be injured."

    "Although the final counterattack can reverse the situation, such a loss is not worth it."

    Wang Qi said: "My plan is to improve on my brother's strategy. Due to the weather, it is indeed not easy to set fire to the Mengshan bandits. On the one hand, the mountains and forests are very large, and we cannot surround the opponent. The opponent can withdraw."

    "On the other hand, once we fight in the mountains and forests, we have no advantage."

    "So our plan is to set fires everywhere to make thick smoke billow in the mountains and forests. If the other party knows that we have discovered it, they will not continue to ambush and will go out to fight in the mountains and forests."

    Wang Qi finally said: "In this case, we will directly attack and defeat the opponent head-on."

    After hearing this, Xiao Qingzhi thought for a while and said, "I agree with the young master's strategy."

    Zhuge Feng said: "I agree with my humble position."

    Both men agreed.

    Wang Qidao: "In that case, we will arrange the arrangements according to this strategy. Now we are not far from Mengshan Mountain. Xiao Qingzhi, please arrange it in advance."

    "yes!"

    Xiao Qingzhi immediately agreed and quickly made arrangements.

    The army continued on its way.

    The distance to Mengshan is getting closer and closer.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)sp; Wang Qidao: "In that case, we will arrange the arrangements according to this strategy. Now we are not far from Mengshan Mountain. Xiao Qingzhi, please arrange it in advance."
