Part Three, Chapter Eighteen: Regaining Dongping 3
[69 Book Bar-www.] Deng Canglan nodded and said, "I have thought about this plan for a long time. However, the troops were insufficient at the beginning, and the water situation was always very urgent. Bi Wei was stubborn again, and I was afraid that he would backfire. Now, he is slaughtering.
When the general reinforcements arrived, the troops were enough, the weather was beautiful, and the water situation slowed down day by day. It was time to use this plan."
I was secretly shocked. Deng Canglan was the best in the water battle. Although I privately felt that he was inferior to Li Yaotian, he was indeed well-known. He sighed and said, "I have been calculating the water situation every day and night."
I have roughly painted the place where the floating bridge can be built on the river. But I also underestimated the Snake Man. It was too close to Dongping City tonight. If it weren't for General Chu's rescue, I would have been afraid that I would not be able to come back. Alas, it's really not enough.
General Chu, you are also going to measure the water situation?"
Although he was humble, I was really impressed. He was not worth enough. I thought the strategy of building a floating bridge was a strange plan that our army had come up with, but Deng Canglan had already calculated it. I said:
"General Deng, if you build a floating bridge, it will be much easier to build it from the upstream."
Deng Canglan was a little moved, slapped on the table and said, "That's it! General Chu, I only think that you are good at land warfare, and it turns out that you are so proficient in water warfare!"
I blushed a little when he said it, and said, "I don't think of it. It was my general named Lian Baice."
Deng Canglan said: "Lian Baice? Wasn't he the guardian of Dongyang City at the beginning? It turns out that he is under your command now."
I was shocked again and said, "General Deng, do you know him too?"
Deng Canglan smiled and said, "I have heard of this person. It is said that he is quite familiar with the art of war. However, when Dongping City was defeated, the whereabouts of this person are unknown. General Chu, you really have the wisdom to know others. You deserve to be appreciated by Lord Wenhou."
He said too politely, and I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but I was a little proud. At this time, the guard brought the tea, and poured a cup and said, "Although the tea is mostly for delivering guests, this cup is
Use tea instead of wine, and toast General Deng.”
These words are not all polite. Deng Canglan is indeed a famous general in this life. Deng Canglan raised his tea and smiled and said, "Gen. Chu."
After drinking a cup of tea, Deng Canglan said: "General Chu, with you helping me, I will be more confident of regaining Dongping City in this battle. Today is too late, and I will propose this strategy at the meeting tomorrow. Please
General Chu pointed out."
＊＊＊The second day, Deng Canglan immediately asked the Tufang to hold an emergency meeting. Only Tufang and our generals could attend this meeting. At the meeting, Deng Canglan finally told him his plan and praised me very much.
He said that this plan was something he and I had come up with, and I felt quite uncomfortable when he heard it. When Bi Wei looked at me, he had an unconcealed jealousy in his eyes. When Tu Fang heard this plan, he was overjoyed and discussed it.
Later, he felt that it was very feasible. Deng Canglan had been preparing for this matter for a long time. Lian Baice said that the ship was not enough. He also thought of the strategy of weaving bamboo rafts instead. He had already prepared a large number of bamboo poles to use. Everyone discussed it.
Next, I decided to prepare for this matter immediately. However, it was still not easy to build a floating bridge. Although Deng Canglan had already drawn a very detailed picture when observing the water situation, no one dared to guarantee the construction of the floating bridge.
After the meeting, I rode my horse back to the camp. As soon as I entered the camp, I could hear a shouting sound inside. It was Cao Wendao and Qian Wenyi who were leading the soldiers to practice, while Chen Zhong and Lian Baice were also leading the soldiers on the other side.
A group of people were practicing axes and arrows. However, Qian Wenyi was practicing swords, guns and stabbing with some soldiers, Cao Wendao and some soldiers were bare-handed and followed Tang Kai to punch. When they saw me coming back, they all stopped. Cao Wendao and Qian Wen
Yi came over and bowed to me, and said, "General, how are you discussing?"
I turned over and dismounted, handed the horse to the guards, and said, "General Tu has agreed to this plan." I looked at the soldiers led by Cao Wendao and said, "How did you practice boxing and kicking?"
Cao Wendao smiled and said, "The ruler, I almost died last night. I felt that only practicing swords and guns was not enough. Once the weapons are gone, wouldn't it be slaughtered? General Qian said that Brother Tang's iron-killing fist is very powerful.
, I want to learn. I don’t have to learn Brother Tang’s level. I can do three moves and two moves. Even if I’m unarmed, I won’t be able to fight back.”
I nodded and said, "What Brother Cao said is very true. The military academy is heavy on swords, spears, and light fists and feet. This is indeed a bit biased. But Brother Tang's iron-cutting and fisting path is very complicated. How have you learned it?"
Tang Kai hurriedly said: "General Chu, when General Zhou Governor taught me a simplified iron-cutting fist technique, which only has nine moves, and is not very powerful. It is suitable for use in the army. What I teach General Cao and others are
This road.”
When I was in Wuyang City, I also learned a little bit of iron-cutting fist with Tang Kai. I realized that although I was not as good as Tang Kai's level, my boxing skills were not bad, and I could cut branches as thick as my fingers with one palm. I heard that Tang Kai was like this
He said, I said, "Is that so? There are these tricks in the iron-cutting fist?"
Tang Kai nodded and said, "The iron-cutting fist was originally a martial art passed down by the governor Zhou's family. I heard that there are mountains, water, wind, fire, thunder, sky, sun, moon, and Luohu, who is the nine routes of the capital, but the governor Zhou only passed on me.
The first six and the last three are afraid that no one will know each other, and it has become a sound." When he said that Zhou Nuo, he still respected him as the "Governor", and he was sighing. I know that he was still very loyal to Zhou Nuo, and
Zhou Nuo died under the sword of Cao Wendao and I, but he is now my subordinate, and he must be very conflicted. I was afraid that he would think of Zhou Nuo again, so I quickly changed the conversation: "Is there any water going?"
”
Tang Kai's eyes lit up suddenly and he said, "This water fist is suitable for use in turbulent places such as ships. If it is on the water surface, this way of fist is very suitable." But the light in his eyes flashed and it didn't happen.
, and said sadly: "But this road of fist is very complicated and I can't learn it for a while."
I patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Tang, you should reorganize these boxing techniques. Shadow-cutting Knife and Iron Fist are the two gems in the martial arts of the Western Prefecture Army, and they should be carried forward."
Tang Kai nodded again and said, "Yes."
We were talking about some gossip when suddenly there was a chaos at the gate of the camp. A soldier rushed over and bowed to me, saying, "General Chu, a few people came outside and said they wanted to join the army."
There are not many people who want to join the army. Now there are wars, especially Dongyang City, which has become the front line. Most of the civilians in the city have fled to the rear. Those who stay in the city are mostly men who are not afraid of the earth for a few days, and there is nothing at all.
Things are easy to do, but after joining the army, I can have enough food, so people often come to join the army, but it is the first time I have joined me. I said, "Is that right? I'll go and have a look."
I took Cao Wendao to the entrance of the camp. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a dozen people surrounding the sentry on duty saying something. When the sentry saw me, he came over and bowed, "General Chu, these people," said the sentence.
Want to join the army.”
I walked up and looked at the people. Although these people were not very tall, they were all very strong. I smiled and said, "Do you guys want to join the army?"
A man came out from the crowd, bowed to me, and said, "General Chu, the young Feng Qi, have seen General Chu."
