Wang Mi cleared his throat and said seriously: "We can divide our troops into two groups."
"The large force will follow us to Qiaoshan to explore the road. Once the road is clear, we can pass through immediately, leaving a small group of people to continue clearing obstacles here."
"If there is no obstruction to the Qiaoshan side, the small team of soldiers can go to Xiangyang to meet up on their own after clearing the obstacles."
"If traffic is blocked, there will be no delay in dealing with the obstruction. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
While Wang Mi was telling the story, Xie Xuan kept nodding, with a thinking look on his face, a bit heavy and a bit serious.
This made Wang Mi feel unsure, and he didn't know whether he agreed or disagreed.
"This is really a good idea!"
“This way you can take care of both sides!”
Huan Chong has always been a show-stopper. You, Xie Xuan, don't pay attention to anyone, and you don't allow me, Lao Huan, to support you.
Sure enough, as soon as he said a word, he received a blank look from Xie Xuan.
"General Xie, I also think this plan is feasible." Huan Yi's support was not very convincing to Xie Xuan.
The two of them must be in cahoots, and of course they agree.
However, the situation was there and there was no room for Xie Xuan to hesitate any longer.
Xiangyang must be captured in order to teach Di Qin, who is eager to invade the south, a heavy lesson. In this case, he can't control much.
"Then do as you say."
"Wild King, are you sure?"
"have!"
Wang Mi nodded to Huan Yi, and Huan Yi declared firmly.
"Since Ye Wang said it, it must be right."
Wang Mi was very aggrieved. It was me who came up with the whole idea. Old man Xie didn't believe me and praised Huan Yi instead.
There is simply no justice in this world!
"The army takes a rest and is imprisoned."
Liu Laozhi, who had not had a chance to speak for a long time, strode forward and saluted with his bow.
"Deploy a team of Beifu soldiers to continue moving stones here, organize the team again, and we will go to Qiaoshan now!"
Xie Xuan crossed his waist and was full of ambition, as if Qiao Shan was right in front of him. However, Liu Laozhi stood there and did not follow the instructions.
This is really strange, hasn't he always followed Xie Xuan's lead?
He hesitated for a moment, then looked up at the sky and lamented a few times.
Has no one discovered such an obvious problem?
"General, it's getting dark soon, and the soldiers haven't eaten yet. If we march another hundred miles, I'm afraid there won't even be a place to camp."
"Is it getting dark soon?"
"Why didn't I notice?" Xie Xuan looked around and realized that the surroundings were getting darker and darker. It turned out that it was already getting late.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Go down with the order, camp where you are, and set off at dawn tomorrow!"
Xie Xuan stood up suddenly and finally made a correct decision.
The soldiers, who had long been exhausted and paralyzed, hurried to Zhangluo to set up camp as if they were about to receive an amnesty.
After a while, smoke rose from the flat open space. The intense and busy marching journey actually had a hint of life.
However, the soldiers can take a break. For Wang Mi, there are still more problems waiting for him.
…………
At nightfall, the excavation team at the front finally stopped working. Ever since they heard that they would be left on the trail to clear obstacles, these soldiers were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths with joy.
While working, he was humming a little tune.
Why was it left here? It's so beautiful.
No way, it’s safe!
Although they claim to be the elite of the Beifu soldiers, in fact, they are just ordinary people, and no one wants to go to the front line and die.
Among the Beifu soldiers, there are many people who want to rely on their military merits to gain promotions and titles. However, most of them just spend a day as a monk ringing the clock.
I don’t have any clear plans for the future, and I don’t have strong ambitions.
There's nothing shameful about moving rocks. This side of Changjiao is completely within the control of Da Jin, and there is no need to worry about harassment from Di Qin.
The only passage was blocked by large rocks, and Di Qin's cavalry could not get through at all.
What's even more perfect is that under the persuasion of Huan Yi and others, Xie Xuan also led a large group of people to the vicinity of Qiaoshan.
The remaining hundred or so people on this side of Guangdao are left unattended and must manage themselves.
Ahem...
When it comes to managing yourself, it all depends on your conscience.
It is normal to fish for three days and dry the nets for two days. Are you going to join the army?
Don't be ridiculous, I don't have such lofty ambitions.
Not to mention that they only have a team of a hundred people, which is nothing at all. Even if there is a team of thousands of people, these people may not work as fast as Xie Xuan asks, and then go to Xiangyang to join the battle.
Fighting is a matter of death and loss of head. It is not easy to move stones here.
"Xiao Lang, in your opinion, when will these big rocks be cleaned up?"
Before moving to Xiangyang, Liu Yu and Tan Pingzhi came to Wang Mi's military tent. Several friends from Jingkou gathered together and planned to talk all night long.
"Don't worry, it won't be fast."
Several people sat around the tent and set up a small fire in the middle. On the fire was a small bird and several pieces of red meat.
This is a wild place, so naturally we need to hunt some game to satisfy our cravings.
The so-called eating game actually means eating fresh and tender meat. You don’t have to work hard to make soup or stew. It is best to eat it just like this on the barbecue.
The fat in the animal skin and meat sizzles out through the strong flames. You don't need to apply oil at all to enjoy the fragrant and supreme deliciousness.
What is original ecological food? This is it.
With Liu Yu and Tan Pingzhi around, there was no need for Wang Mi to take action himself. However, the most diligent among them was, of course, Duan Xian.
Before Wang Mi had time to pick up a bamboo skewer, Duan first brought the roasted meat pieces that were charred on the outside, tender on the inside, and sizzling in front of him.
Since joining the Beifu Army, Liu Yu has led his troops to drill almost every day, without a single day's delay. Without paying attention for a few days, Wang Mi discovered that Liu Yu was much darker than when he was in Jingkou.
"How did Secretary Wang find out?" Liu Yu took off a piece of meat, put it in his mouth and chewed hard.
"Isn't this a very simple matter?" Wang Mi felt that he was pretending to be confused because he understood.
"Think about it, you are all hanging out in the military camp. Will you still be obedient once the general leaves?"
Tsk tsk...
That makes sense.
Liu Yu and Tan Pingzhi looked at each other and smiled sheepishly.
Well, humans are all the same animals, and there are not many differences in nature. The people in the military camps are either military households who have been in the army for generations, or farmers who have been temporarily recruited from military towns such as Jingkou.
The educational level of these people is not very high, and don’t expect them to have a high level of self-discipline. They can just herd sheep where they are without anyone watching over them!
