Ma Hao was taken away, and Zhao Jin also took advantage of this to beat everyone.
Zhao Jin didn't have much contact with either Ma Yan or Xu Yan, especially Xu Yan, so Zhao Jin took this opportunity to beat them up.
"After digging the trench, I plan to directly prevent Zhao Xingyu from using explosives."
All the generals looked shocked. They had been unable to deal with Zhao Xingyu because of this explosive.
Both sides had explosives, but Zhao Xingyu used his troops treacherously, making it difficult to resist.
But if Zhao Xingyu cannot use explosives, all difficulties will be solved for them.
"What can you do, general?" Xu Yan's voice was filled with obvious urgency.
The fight with Zhao Xingyu lasted for so long, and nearly half of the soldiers were killed or injured. These were all his subordinates who had been following him. Xu Yan could not help but feel heartbroken.
Now that I heard that Zhao Jin has a way to get rid of the most threatening explosives in Zhao Xingyu's hands, how can I still sit still?
Zhao Jin slowed down his tone and said soothingly: "General Xu, please be patient and listen to what I have to say."
"Zhao Xingyu has explosives on hand. We will detonate all their explosives, and he will have no explosives left."
Xu Yan, who was looking at Zhao Jin eagerly, looked slightly disappointed and smiled bitterly, "Master Guo, we have also thought of this method."
"But first of all, Zhao Xingyu's military camp is heavily guarded. Furthermore, even if the explosives in the military camp are blown up, he can make another batch."
In the final analysis, this method is the same as trenching, but it treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
"Then there will be no way to make explosives again." Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows, and after saying a few words, he turned sideways, revealing the huge map behind him.
Zhao Jin took out the long knife in his hand and put the tip of the knife against one of the cities.
"It is impossible for Zhao Xingyu to carry too many raw materials for making explosives with the army. We blew up these raw materials together. Then, if Zhao Xingyu wants to make explosives again, he will have to transport the raw materials from elsewhere."
Zhao Jin pointed at the location of Zhao Xingyu with his long knife, then moved the tip of the knife, drew a large circle around more than a dozen cities, and enclosed them all.
"The most indispensable ingredients in explosives are saltpeter and sulfur. If Zhao Xingyu wants to get saltpeter and sulfur, he can only transport them from the city he occupies."
The tip of the long knife in Zhao Jin's hand returned to the location of Zhao Xingyu's military camp again, and he tapped it, and then tapped the city around Zhao Xingyu.
"He wants to get saltpeter and sulfur. No matter where he transports it from, he must pass here if he wants to reach outside Liyang City."
Finally, the tip of the knife landed on the location of Qingyun Town.
Zhao Jin turned to look at the generals who were staring at the map attentively, curled his lips and said with a smile: "If we control Qingyun Town, then Zhao Xingyu will not be able to get saltpeter and sulfur."
"Of course we can't make this explosive."
Xu Yan couldn't help but take a step forward, "But Qingyun Town is surrounded by rebels. If you want to capture Qingyun Town, you must first capture a city next to it. Liyang may not be able to support it."
So long."
"No need." Zhao Jin shook his head, "Let's just go around here and capture Qingyun Town."
The tip of the knife cut through a dense forest path, just in time to bypass the rebel city and reach Qingyun Town.
"But we may not be able to hold it." Ma Yan said sharply: "The importance of Qingyun Town is self-evident."
"Even if Zhao Xingyu didn't expect us to be so crazy and take Qingyun Town directly, once Qingyun Town is recaptured by us, Zhao Xingyu will definitely take action immediately."
"At that time, Qingyun was attacked from all sides, and Qingyun could not hold on."
Ma Yan spoke so firmly that no one among the generals could refute him. Even Chen Xiao kept his face dark and said nothing.
There is no doubt that after Zhao Xingyu found out, he naturally understood that if Qingyun Town was not recaptured, he would not be able to obtain explosives. The military camp where Zhao Xingyu's army was temporarily stationed at that time would be the one who was flanked.
Zhao Xingyu's military camp is right between Qingyun Town and Liyang.
"As long as we survive five days, in five days, we can divide our troops into three groups and capture the other three cities alongside Qingyun Town. Together with Liyang, we can form a pincer attack on Zhao Xingyu."
Zhao Jin looked calm and did not waver in the slightest, "At that time, after Zhao Xingyu captured it, the morale of the army in the remaining dozen or so cities would definitely be in chaos. We can continue to plan for it."
"But Zhao Xingyu must solve it as soon as possible."
Zhao Xingyu is the leader of the rebels and the spiritual pillar of the entire rebel army. As long as he is there, the rebels can form a rope, but once Zhao Xingyu falls.
The rebels will fall apart, at least not as united as they are now.
"It's too risky." Ma Yan didn't agree very much.
Zhao Jin smiled and did not deny it, "It is indeed risky, but precisely because it is risky and crazy, Zhao Xingyu will never guess our purpose."
"He wouldn't have guessed that we would attack Qingyun Town directly, because it seems to be a dead end."
Zhao Jin took back his long sword and persuaded everyone in a leisurely manner, "So, as long as the sneak attack on Qingyun Town is fast enough, it may be successful."
"Once the sneak attack on Qingyun Town is successful, Zhao Xingyu will definitely be furious and will unite with the surrounding cities to besiege Qingyun Town."
"Our purpose at this time is obvious, to prevent him from getting the raw materials for explosives. Therefore, he would not have thought that we would dare to directly seize the other three cities at this juncture."
Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows, showing his vigor, "Our goal has never been just to prevent him from getting the raw materials for explosives. The most important thing is to encircle and suppress Zhao Xingyu."
"With the cover of Qingyun Town, Zhao Xingyu will not guess our true purpose."
Inside the camp, there was silence.
Chen Xiao half-squinted his eyes. He thought he was crazy enough, but he didn't expect Zhao Jin to be even crazier than him when he started fighting.
The rest of the people were extremely confused. Zhao Jin's plan was too dangerous and crazy, but as Zhao Jin said, because it was too unbelievable, it was possible for them to win by surprise.
"Have you thought about it?"
Chen Xiao took a long breath and said, "General, I have no objection."
"Where are the others?"
Seeing that they didn't speak, Zhao Jin threw the last straw, "Other than this method, we can only fight with Zhao Xingyu. You all know the power of explosives."
"You should be more aware than this general of the casualties caused by the previous confrontation between the two sides."
"So, how do you choose?"
Xu Yan gritted his teeth and the veins on his neck stood out, "I agree!"
The generals in the Qi family's army nodded one after another, "The last general will obey orders!"
As for the original generals in Liyang, Xu Yan had already agreed, and they had no reason to object.
