Chapter 32 ? There is not much time left for the two sects...
Since Ma Shiyao and Taoist Niu have unified their opinions and agreed that the matter can only be solved by force in the end, they will naturally start to deploy it immediately.
It is said that soldiers are the most powerful. This war is not like the words written by Storyteller. A battle between the Red Cliffs can be talked about for several months. Both sides were posing for a long time and shouting across the Yangtze River, but they just didn't get together to start the fight. Those who listened to the books in the audience were so angry that their teeth were itchy, and they wanted to pull Storyteller off the stage and beat him up.
Ma Shiyao naturally would not be as slow as Mr. Storyteller. After making a decision with Taoist Niu, he left only a small number of people to guard the captured war horses in the forbidden ditch. The rest were all pulled into the city and prepared to join the battle.
As the saying goes, "A lion and rabbit are strong and do your best, and that's the truth."
The soldiers were divided into two groups, one of which was the elite army selected by Ma Shiyao, with a total of more than 200 people. He personally led the troops to attack the Supervisor's Office.
The remaining five or six thousand soldiers were led by Taoist Niu. They surrounded the camps and shacks of the heroes in the north of the city, and wanted to kill all the heroes in one fell swoop.
Of course, although the strategy has been roughly determined, the specific implementation tactics still have to be planned repeatedly. The military strategists do not fight unprepared battles, and this war is different, and they have to be filled in with their lives.
Therefore, the more detailed the reconnaissance, deployment, preparation and other work before the war, the better. When the war is really started, even if these plans can only be used to make a little more chance of winning, or if one can harm a few less brothers, then this busy work will not be in vain.
Ma Shiyao summoned Taoist Niu to the tent, took out his pen and ink, and quietly wrote the word "fire" in his palm. He turned around and said to Taoist Niu, "Old Niu, yesterday I watched the celestial phenomena at night and developed a brilliant plan to break the enemy. I think you seem to be confident. Do you think this is good? You and I wrote this plan to break the enemy in their palms, and then they will come out at the same time..."
Taoist Niu was angry at this time and had no time to accompany Ma Shiyao to play this opera that imitated "Zhou Lang's brilliant plan to help the world", and said angrily:
"You are calling the servant outside the door who brings you foot washing water every day in. Ask him what tactics he should use this time. He can also tell you that this time he must use the fire attack strategy.
These heroes gathered in a corner of the north of the city, and the camps and sheds were all made of tree bark, layered and tightly built. At this time, the weather was dry and the north wind was tight. What else could you think of without fire attacking?"
Ma Shiyao scratched his head and said strangely: "Can't that be a water attack?"
Taoist Niu gave Ma Shiyao a blank look and said, "In the twelfth lunar month of the ten winters, the water of the Yellow River is as frozen as a stone. Our Tongguan terrain is high. Even if you want to dig a well, you have to dig dozens of feet deep before water can come out. This little water is not enough for people to drink, and it is still your turn to attack with water!"
"Oh, this is also..." Ma Shiyao embarrassedly wiped away the word "fire" written in the ink pen in his hand...
Taoist Niu was unwilling to gossip with Ma Shiyao, so he took out the map of the government office and the hero camp, spread it on the table, pointed it out to Ma Shiyao everywhere, and carefully planned some other combat details. After all the plans were over, the two divided the troops according to the plan, each bringing their own needed troops and weapons, ready to attack the heroes.
The number of people in the Niu Taoist was the most popular, and he prepared a lot of dry firewood, Songming and tinder oil for ignition. He even got two barrels of tinder oil.
This fierce tinder is the oil mentioned in "Mengxi Bitan". Shen Kuo once said that there were many streams in the area of Fuzhou and Yanzhou, Shaanxi. After the Dashun Army occupied Shaanxi, some people followed the map and found a lot of oil.
After simple precipitation and preparation, these oils became the best hot turbulent oil. The hot turbulent oils made by the Dashun Army were originally intended to be used when attacking Beijing in the future. But unexpectedly, the Ming army was really bored and surrendered before they could be fought. The prepared hot turbulent oil was useless.
Ma Shiyao and the others also asked for two barrels at that time, and they were in the army. They didn't expect that they would be of great use today. This kind of fierce tincture oil is more powerful than ordinary animal fat to make tincture oil. Even if it is poured on water, it cannot be extinguished. It will even float on the water surface in the direction of the water flow, burning, causing the fire everywhere, which is the most vicious.
Taoist Niu arranged all these fire-induced objects in the upper wind on the north side of the Great Hero Camp. When the signal in the city arrived, hundreds of soldiers poured oil and ignited the fire together. At that time, the fire would use the power of the wind and burn the shacks built with tree bark into a sea of fire in an instant.
The remaining soldiers, each carrying strong bows and crossbows, lying in the south of the camp where the heroes lived, just waiting for the fire in the shack to seal off all their ways out. Even if one or two heroes could escape from the sea of fire by chance, they would die in destruction under the arrows of thousands of troops.
Taoist Niu also walked around the ground for a few times, but felt that the cruel tricks he used in his life were nothing more than this. Once this fire attack trick was used, it was a real trick. Even if the heroes had three necks, three heads, shoulders and six arms, and Yang Jian was reborn in Nezha, he would definitely not escape this disaster.
He is not worried about his chances of winning now, but he is afraid that the fire will be too strong and he will not be able to control it in the end. In the winter, everything withers and the sky is dry. Most of the houses in Tongguan City are wooden buildings. If you don’t pay attention, don’t burn the entire Tongguan.
There is a saying that water and fire are ruthless. Taoist Niu has truly seen a big fire. The fire tongue is rolled by dozens of feet away, which is the most amazing. So Taoist Niu specially sent hundreds of people to push the cart with shovels and picks, and all of them were ambushed around the houses south of the Great Hero's shack.
When we see the signals in the city, we will immediately take action to snatch the house and quickly clear out three fires. Even if the fire is too big or fast, it will take some time to burn it. When the fire burns out the heroes' shacks, the houses here will be almost completely snatched.
It is a good idea to be prepared for any trouble. It would rather take more space for this private house than let the fire spread. Do the work of playing with fire and burning Tongguan.
After everything was arranged, Taoist Niu felt that he would definitely hurt Tianhe this time, and was afraid that the Three Pure Ones would be punished, so he prayed silently:
"I am not a disciple of the Three Pure Land, I am vicious. It's really because the heroes are too bullying. This time, the cause and effect are not the reason. I should burn more incense and candles in the future to save these heroes. I hope that all the heavenly masters will not blame them, which will affect the Golden Pill Avenue in the Yuhua Immortal Realm..."
On this side, the fire attack plan of the Niu Taoist priest was arranged in detail, while on the other side, Ma Shiyao's plan to attack the Supervisor's Office was more comprehensive.
Ma Shiyao has been repeatedly observing these two days and even sent a sentry to hide around the Supervisor's Office, secretly counting the number of people entering and leaving, purchasing vegetables, using coal and fire, etc. Finally, according to his calculations, the number of people in the Supervisor's Office will not exceed ten people at most!
Even the most powerful force is probably the two doors at the door holding golden maces. The martial arts of these two people are unclear, just talking about this is too scary. Ma Shiyao recalled that he had lived so big that he might not have seen a taller and taller person than these two people.
Youdao is not losing his strength. Judging from the appearance of these two people, it is estimated that ordinary soldiers are not their opponents.
But so what? There is a saying that "two fists cannot match four hands, and heroes cannot resist many people." Not only does he have an absolute advantage in numbers, but he also relies on his own talent and strategy. Even Sun Houzi can't escape the palm of his Tathagata Buddha.
Ma Shiyao first prepared a huge fishing net, which was completely unfolded to a height of four or five feet wide. He also asked someone to sew countless sharp steel hooks on the fishing net, and asked four personal soldiers to carry them past the gate of the Supervisor's Office.
When these four personal soldiers walked to the two bastards' door, they suddenly started a attack, shook open the fishing net, and wrapped the two doors in the fishing net together.
At that time, the steel hooks will enter the body and be wrapped in layers of fishing nets, even if the two schools have great skills, they will not be able to use them.
In addition, Ma Shiyao found some people, disguised themselves as vendors and people doing small business nearby, scattered around the Supervisor's Office. They all carried sharp weapons and blades in their respective carts and baskets.
Just when the four personal soldiers holding the fishing nets covered the two doors with the fishing nets, everyone rushed forward, drew out the weapons and swords that had been hidden in advance, and all the chaotic blades were put in hand. In an instant, these two hateful doors were killed by the nine springs.
On the other side of the corner of the Supervisor's Office, Ma Shiyao also arranged his personal soldier Ma Xier to lead an elite soldier, holding a sharp blade and wearing two layers of heavy armor, and ambushed in advance. At that time, his orders were made, and he would lead the soldiers to attack and rush into the Supervisor's Office, killing the heroes without leaving any hell.
After the massacre of the heroes in the military office of the Supervisor's Office had finished their slaughter, Ma Xier would ignite the cannon in her arms and ask the Niu Taoist priests in Beicheng to set fire to the camp.
Ma Shiyao himself sat on the second floor of Wangyun Tower, controlling the overall situation. He also brought more than 20 sharpshooters from the army around him, aiming the tips of the bow and arrow at the door of the Supervisor's Office to measure the situation.
When Ma Shiyao listens to books and talks about ancient times, he always thinks that it is an elegant thing for famous ancient generals to throw the glass as a name, so he also plans to use this as an order to throw the glass from the second floor of Wangyun Tower. After hearing the order to throw the glass as an order, several people and horses took action together.
However, just in case, he still tested it in advance, found several wine glasses and pots of different sizes from the private room in Wangyun Building, and threw them down from the second floor. It turned out that he found that it was thanks to his experiment in advance, otherwise problems would be very likely to occur at that time.
First of all, the land is downstairs of Wangyun Tower. Although it has been crushed very flat, the wine glass and kettle have not been broken several times. The military plans are a perfect plan. Not to mention a few times, even a mistake is not allowed.
In addition, the sound of the porcelain being broken is too small, so people nearby may hear it, but Ma Xier, who is far away at the end of the street, will not be so real. If there is some noise on the street at that time, and Ma Xier can't hear it, then there will be a big problem.
So after repeated weighing, Ma Shiyao had no choice but to give up his nostalgia for the time being, and changed from throwing a cup to throwing a gong to throwing a buzz.
He found a military gong from the army, which was as big as the mouth of a large water tank. It was originally used to stop the gong in the army. Because the gong was too big and ordinary people couldn't carry it at all, it was usually hung on a wooden gong rack. This time, in order to attack the Supervisor's Office, it was specially removed from the gong rack.
Ma Shiyao tried to push this gong down from the second floor of Wangyun Tower. He found that this time it was really different. The sound of the gong was extremely loud. Not to mention Ma Xier ambushed on the corner of the street, even if you were a few streets, you could hear the loud sound of the gong falling down.
However, the noise this time may have been too shocking, and it also attracted the attention of Qin Er and San Dezi at the opposite Governor's Office.
Ma Shiyao was so scared that he squatted down and hid under the windowsill of Wangyun Tower, so that the two of them would see through Xingzang.
In fact, Ma Shiyao was guilty of being a thief. Although he had stepped on many plates in the Supervisor's Office, how could he notice these sneaky actions with Qin Er and San Dezi's temperament?
After a while, Ma Shiyao found that Qin Er and San Dezi were just following the direction of the sound. He looked around casually, but did not notice anything was wrong, so he felt relieved.
He and Taoist Niu agreed that the time to do something was when the lights were held in Tongguan City at night. At this time, it was dark and it was convenient to do it with night cover. Moreover, since it was not too late, it was not surprising that some small businessmen and pedestrians on the road were not surprising. It was convenient for those guards who pretended to be vendors to act in secret.
As for why in the middle of winter, there were a few people carrying fishing nets and passing by the gate of the Supervisor's Office. Ma Shiyao did not think about this issue carefully. He probably could not have imagined these many details based on the carefree temperament of the two schools.
After all arrangements were made, all the people disguised themselves and took their seats one by one. Ma Shiyao ordered a table to wait for the banquet, and sat in the private room by the window where he usually sat most often. He thought about his arrangement today several times, and felt that it must be foolproof. Now everything is ready, so he just waited for the lights.
Of course, if you still lack something now, it is the elegant style of some famous generals from ancient times.
Actually, he had thought about this before.
For example, if you put on a game of Go, you will just wait until the task is completed, and you will throw the chess piece gently and say lightly: "Young man has already broken the thief army..."
Or I got a piece of pen, ink and paper, just waiting for the fire in the north city to rise, and with the light of the moonlight, I took it away with a wave. I left a poem that has been sung for the ages...
However, after thinking about it, he still felt that these things were a bit artificial. The so-called "only heroes can be the true nature of the person," which is a true celebrity. He does not like to play chess or write poetry. Why do you have to make those fancy things?
So he simply called two famous fans from Tongguan and sat down to drink and spent time together. When it was time to light the lamp, he immediately ordered the capture and killing of Qin Er and San Dezi.
With a beauty to accompany you, time passes faster. Seeing the sun sinking, Ma Shiyao thought about his own planning and was about to kill the thief army, and was in a great mood.
