About three and a half hours later, Zi Yan, Lin Xia and the others came back.
After Lin Xia's confirmation, those guards were indeed horse bandits.
Lin Xia happened to know them. They were originally a group of horse bandits entrenched in Nahan area. They were not very strong, but they were ruthless. Relying on the speed of their horses and their ability to move quickly, they also did a lot of bad things, including robbing homes and other places.
"It's strange that they are willing to station here again." Lin Xia expressed her doubts after finishing speaking, "Logically speaking, these horse bandits generally don't want to stay in one place. They are afraid of being caught."
"Unless they don't have this worry now!" Fu Mingyu said slowly.
"It makes sense!" Cheng Xiuxiu nodded.
"How is their defense?" Fu Mingyu asked.
"Hey, the horse bandits are good at horse fighting and have strong maneuverability, but they are very poor in defensive warfare." Lin Xia rubbed his hands and said. "There is almost no defense in that place. The scouts have already explored it, but it is just a simple stone wall.
It was built into a stronghold, which was only one person high and could easily be climbed over. The four corners of the fence were built with wood.
We have looked at the four sentry posts that came. They change every hour, and there are four people on each post. On the left side of the stockade is the horse bandit's house, which is built of wood. On the right side, near the cave, is a stone barrier.
It’s a simple house that can’t even be protected from the rain. The three most gorgeous houses here are those where the shaman lives.”
"What is their water source?" Fu Mingyu asked.
"The water source is the stream that flows down after the snow melts in the mountains." Lin Xia said. "If you want to give them medicine from the water source, I'm afraid it will be difficult. But it can be put in their meals. They have a kitchen.
There is a water tank in the kitchen. I think they will use the water in the tank first."
After Lin Xia finished speaking, everyone looked at Fu Mingyu like smoke.
Fu Mingyu frowned in thought.
She was weighing the balance of power between the two sides. Even though she had never led a soldier, she had read some military books. After all, the years in the palace were extremely boring. Apart from reading, Fu Mingyu could not find anything to entertain her.
"Shall we do it?" Seeing that Fu Mingyu remained silent, Cheng Xiuxiu couldn't help but pull her sleeves and asked in a low voice.
"Are you sure there are only about a hundred of them?" Fu Mingyu asked.
"Confirmed. Don't worry, Princess, our scouts are all trustworthy." Lin Xia nodded with certainty.
Fu Mingyu looked at Zi Yan again, and Zi Yan nodded in approval.
Fu Mingyu naturally believed in the abilities of these soldiers in the Marshal's Mansion. If they were not capable, they would not be able to stay in the Marshal's Mansion.
"Do it!" Fu Mingyu looked at everyone and said very resolutely, "But if you want to do it, then you must do it beautifully. Lieutenant Xiao, how can we attack in the shortest time? If we minimize our losses, it won't matter.
It's up to you to let the news leak out!"
Xiao Ming, who was suddenly called out, was obviously startled, and then bared his teeth. This princess is really good at using people. He thought that the princess would even lay out the battle plan, but in the end, he directly pushed the matter onto himself.
superior.
"What's your expression?" Fu Mingyu saw Xiao Ming make a face and asked with a frown, "Is it possible that your dignified captain of the Marshal's Mansion can't even deal with a group of horse bandits?"
Xiao Ming was aroused by Fu Mingyu's words and immediately stared, "How is that possible!" He said quickly.
