Chapter 1279: Fire Bull Formation (Part 1)
"Now Longcheng is in charge of Tuo Lei and Hu Chuquan. They know that if there are too many troops sent to the city, our army will definitely not fight head-on. If there are less, we may not be able to win. In order not to make useless efforts, they closed the door. The safest way is to stay at home and wait for Murong Ke to arrive with reinforcements."
After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Huo Qubing frowned even more and said, "Yuanmeng still has options to choose from, but we have no choice."
“That’s not necessarily the case.”
A strange look flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes, and he said with a faint smile: "As long as we can anger either Tuo Lei or Hu Chuquan, our army will take the initiative to submit a letter of war to the Yuan army to make him believe that our army will not refuse to fight. If he escapes, he will definitely dare to lead his army out of the city and fight our army head-on. "
Huo Qubing first relaxed his brows, then frowned, and asked, "Military advisor, these two are not impulsive people. I'm afraid it won't be easy to anger them."
"Tuo Lei is naturally a calm person, but Hu Chu Quan is not necessarily the same. As long as he can completely anger him, even Tuo Lei may not be able to stop him. As for the method of irritating Hu Chu Quan, Liang already has a perfect plan."
Seeing Zhuge Liang's confidence, Huo Qubing breathed a sigh of relief. Then Ran Min asked: "Commander Zhuge, our army now only has 55,000 cavalry. Even if Yuan Meng is willing to send the city to fight, the number of troops will be much greater than ours." , Our army will not necessarily win in a head-on battle, right?"
“Yes, once we are defeated, how will we carry out the subsequent missions? That is our ultimate goal of going out.”
Long Qie asked in a deep voice, and all the generals nodded.
Their mission for this trip has been completed. If Yuanmeng is hit hard again, no one will be able to do better. But if they fail, they will lose everything.
“If facing Murong Ke, Liang would never take this risk, but now we have to face Huchuquan.”
After Zhuge Liang looked around, he smiled with great confidence: "Hu Chuquan's ability, let alone compared with Murong Ke, is far behind even Tuo Lei. Relying on his identity as Temujin's brother, he can Occupying a high position in Yuanmeng.
Therefore, before Murong Ke led his army to arrive, as long as Huchuquan could be stimulated out of the city, Liang would be 100% sure to hit Yuanmeng again. "
Seeing Zhuge Liang's tone so certain, the generals no longer had any doubts in their hearts.
Huo Qubing asked again: "But how should we command it so that our army of 55,000 cavalry can defeat Yuanmeng's cavalry three or even four times our own head-on?"
Huo Qubing asked himself that he had mastered cavalry warfare to the point of mastery. Even Bai Qi might not be able to do better than him, but he still had no confidence that he could lead his 55,000 Han cavalry to defeat 150,000 in a head-on manner. Even 200,000 yuan and meng cavalry.
“General Huo Bing, I asked you to collect the materials when you destroyed the Yuanmeng tribe. This is our secret weapon to defeat Yuanmeng with a small force and a large force.”
“Those cows are the military advisor talking about?”
Huo Qubing's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked in surprise: "Does the military advisor want to set up a fire bull formation?"
Long Qie suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked in surprise: "Fire Bull Formation? Hasn't that been lost long ago?"
Zhuge Liang did not answer Long Qie's question, but looked at the generals and asked, "You should all know that the five kingdoms are attacking Qi, right?"
"You know, Yan general Leyi led his troops to more than 70 cities in Qi State. Qi State was almost destroyed and only two cities were left. However, Qi General Tian Dan used the Fire Ox Formation to defeat the powerful Yan State in one fell swoop and restored its power. Qi State. After that battle, Fire Ox Burial was lost..."
The youngest Luo Cheng answered that even he knew it, and obviously everyone else must also know it. After all, both the Jin army and the Qin army would "eliminate" the generals' illiteracy. Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "After the Fire Ox Formation became so brilliant, it naturally attracted the attention of the world. Many countries wanted to use the Fire Ox Formation to replace their armies in combat, but without exception, they all failed.
A cow will become extremely violent when it is set on fire. Not only will it not obey instructions, but it will also kill and injure its own people, making it impossible to use it for war.
Countries have tried countless methods, but they are still unable to control the Fire Ox. The method to control the Fire Ox has always been in Tian Dan's hands. However, with Tian Dan's death, the secret of the Fire Ox Formation was completely lost. "
Hearing this, the generals were so disappointed that they wanted to scold their mothers. What nonsense are you talking about when it is lost?
At such a critical moment, Zhuge Liang naturally did not talk nonsense and quickly got into the topic and continued: "Although Tian Dan died, the Fire Ox Formation was not lost. He brought the secret of the Fire Ox Formation to the tomb and It was dug out by Captain Jin a few months ago, which triggered a melee in the rivers and lakes.
Liang was fortunate enough to experience this grand event in person under the protection of 'Brother Fish', and was lucky enough to get something. "
Zhuge Liang smiled mysteriously, took out a small bottle from his arms, and said, "This is the secret of the Fire Ox Formation."
The ‘Big Brother Fish’ in Zhuge Liang’s mouth naturally refers to Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu understands what he is talking about, but everyone else is confused.
Why touch the gold captain?
What kind of Tiandan tomb?
How come you never heard of it?
Are we really living in the same era?
As senior generals in the army, Huo Qubing and others looked down on the roughness of the rivers and lakes at all, so they naturally did not pay attention to the affairs of the rivers and lakes. However, the excitement of the rivers and lakes of the Han Dynasty was no worse than that of the princes competing for hegemony. Touching the tombs of Captain Jin and Tian Dan was just a matter of fact. Just one or two small episodes.
“That military advisor, what is Colonel Mojin? What is Tian Dan’s tomb?” Huo Qubing asked awkwardly.
After Zhuge Liang glanced at Xiang Yu, who had a slight twitch in his mouth, he suddenly slapped his head and explained with a wry smile: "The Captain Touching the Gold is an official tomb robbing organization formed by Cao Mengde and sent by Cao Mengde's 'Little Sword Master' Cao Qiudao, specializing in robbing tombs and killing dead people. Cai Lai provided military supplies for the Yanzhou Army.
Touching Jin School is notorious on the rivers and lakes, and Tian Shan's tomb is one of the tombs stolen by the Captain Jin Xun. However, the sound of the wind that they leaked this time attracted half of the rivers and lakes. "
Luo Cheng curled his lips and said with disdain: "They even resorted to digging their own graves by robbing graves. It seems that Cao Mengde was also driven to a dead end by Li Zicheng..."
“Don’t interrupt, listen to the military advisor.”
Luo Yi slapped his son directly on the back of the head, and Luo Cheng closed his mouth in grievance.
Zhuge Liang continued: "Captain Mo Jin and the gangsters all went to rob the martial arts secret books and gold and silver treasures in Tian Dan's tomb, but Liang and Brother Yu accidentally grabbed this."
After Huo Qubing took the bottle, he immediately pulled out the cork on the bottle, smelled it with his nose and found that it was very pungent. He couldn't help but said in surprise: "Is this the medicine Tian Dan used to use the Fire Ox Formation to give to the cattle?"
