"I don't worry about your uncle!"
Zhao Rui barked in his heart, wishing to catch Li Gan's violent beating, but
he could only continue to put on a bitter face, hoping that his master could
look back.
However, Master Zhao Er went very simply.
Remaining Zhao Rui to guard Jiannan Mansion was indeed only a temporary
intention of Zhao Bingzheng. To be precise, after Li Gan spoke, Zhao Bingzhan
found very softly that Zhao Rui was indeed a very suitable candidate.
Moreover, Zhao Rui has always been by his side, and it is time to be alone.
This opportunity is right now.
Therefore, Zhao Rui was cheated by his master in this way.
But in fact, Zhao Rui's initial judgment was not wrong. Zhao Bingzhen was
initially prepared to pit Li Gan, and taught Li Gan a good lesson.
But no one thought that although Li Gan didn't find that Zhao Bingzhen was
going to dig a pit, he was very lucky to get out of the pit.
"Why should it be me!"
Zhao Rui has been depressed by this for many days.
He really didn't want to be alone.
There are endless tasks every day, how long does he have to be so busy to keep
himself so busy? At the beginning, he was with his master and dealt with
business dealings every day. The rest of the time was eating, drinking, and
playing around.
But now, he became the master of the land.
The civilians are looking for him, the military is looking for him...
Even if it's a mule, he still has time to rest.
But when you get to him, you will be a cow and a horse every day!
"Master, you must find someone to replace me sooner!"
After Zhao Bingxi and Li Gan left Jiannan Mansion, Zhao Rui was busy every
day, praying with God, praying that his master would soon discover how
uncomfortable life is without him by his side, and then he would find someone
to come. Replace him, and he will be free.
Unfortunately, things are counterproductive.
Li Gan successfully fulfilled his promise and demonstrated with practical
actions that he can really take good care of Master Zhao Er.
Not even much worse than when Zhao Rui was with Zhao Bingxi.
In terms of caring for people, Li Gan is obviously self-explanatory without a
teacher, and he naturally lights up the relevant skill points.
Zhao Bingzhen, who had a thief and comfortable life, also forgot Zhao Rui, who
was still a cow and horse in Jiannan Mansion. Well, at least in the short
term, he would not think of this little apprentice.
…
Xiangyi Mansion, Linyao City.
Xu Lao San received a secret letter from Xu Lao Er, and Xu Lao San, who
received the secret letter, felt that his second brother was playing a bit
hard at the moment.
It is indeed a good strategy to destroy the city and release the savages into
Xiangyi Mansion.
But the problem is that once something goes wrong, none of them can bear the
consequences.
"Do it or not?"
Xu Laosan was lost in thought.
Savage is so cruel, he knows this. If the savages have been blocked in Longxi
Mansion, of course, it can guarantee temporary stability.
But like what my second brother said in the letter, in case the savages chose
to enter the mountain to survive, and then accidentally found a detour into
Xiangyi Mansion or Qifeng Mansion, then, I would like to completely wipe out
these savages, But it's too difficult.
As it is now, it is indeed a very good way to set up a pocket array, put the
savages in, gather and wipe them out.
But the problem is also here.
If you put the savage in, you have to make sure that no savage can escape.
Such a strategy is undoubtedly very risky.
"Mother, I can't bear to let the child be unable to hold the wolf, and fear
the wolf before the tiger. What can you do?"
"Fight!"
Xu Lao San finally made a decision after hesitating for a while.
As long as you are fully prepared, unless these savages can go to the sky and
escape, they will come and die as much as possible.
Xu Laosan immediately ordered the recruitment of civilian husbands, the kind
of collection of wages.
He wants to dig a circular trench outside Haoguan in the shortest time to
block the way for the savages from Haoguan, and build towering walls in the
forests on both sides of Haoguan to cut off any possibility of savage escape
into the mountains. .
Haoguan, at the moment of being destroyed and abandoned, will become a real
death gate, with no entrance but no exit.
As Xu Laosan's decree was passed down, a large number of civil servants
gathered.
The weather has entered the winter, and the ground has already been frozen,
which makes the progress of trench excavation very slow.
However, there are always more solutions than difficulties.
After discovering that the speed of digging from the ground down was too slow,
Xu Laosan simply let someone drill a hole directly and start digging from the
ground.
The surface soil was frozen, but the underground soil was not frozen, and the
excavation work went smoothly.
At the same time, on the ground, a fire was piled up, sprinkled with fire oil,
ignited, and roasted by fire, which contributed to the thawing of the ground.
It is a pity that Xu Laosan's research on gunpowder has not progressed fast
enough.
Otherwise, as long as gunpowder is buried in the dug hole, the excavation of
the trench can be completed in the shortest time.
But even though it was time-consuming and laborious, Xu Laosan still created a
miracle.
In less than a month, a trench with a length of more than ten miles and a
depth of one foot in width was completed.
In order to increase the difficulty of the savage falling into the trench and
crawling upward, the edge of the trench was poured into ice.
Before the trenches were built, the fortresses on the hills were also built.
A large number of soldiers entered the trenches and stationed in the city wall
fortresses, fully armed, equipped with bows and arrows, crossbow arrows,
octopus crossbows, and even trebuchets.
When everything was ready, Haoguan was raided by wild men.
It is not Xu Lao Er who made people fake, but the real savage.
It's just that the defenders in Haoguan didn't know all this, they thought it
was the raid that Xu Lao Er had agreed with them.
Therefore, when the savages attacked the city, the defensive guards abandoned
the city and fled.
Then, the whole building turned into a sea of flames.
In the snow field beyond Haoguan, Xu Laoer and Fubao saw the flames rising
from Haoguan, staring at them with big eyes, and the Savage really wanted to
break through.
"Sister, what should I do?"
Xu Lao Er hasn't received the news from Xu Lao San at this moment, so
naturally I don't know that everything is ready.
On the other side of the trench in Haoguan, Xu Laosan saw the fire in Haoguan,
and immediately let people ignite the flames.
Not receiving a letter from my second brother means that Haoguan was really
attacked by a wild man.
The soldiers of the town army who withdrew from Haoguan were all scared at the
moment they knew they were really attacked by wild men.
Fortunately, they received the notice early in the morning and chose to
evacuate as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will come forward
unsuspectingly, assuming that the future is their own people, and the result
can be imagined.
After the savage took the mark, he directly destroyed the mark.
Then, the mad savages groaned and ran with their bare feet in the snow,
desperately needing to find food.
