Chapter 1301: Strong in color and soft in heart
There were many people, very many. They were filled with Southern Barbarian descendants all over the mountains and plains, shouting and roaring with great momentum.
Phew! call!
Just as a mountain breeze blew, the grass and trees on the mountain swayed left and right in the wind, mixed with the noisy Nanman Miao people. Looking up from the foot of the mountain, it was impossible to tell which was the vegetation and which was the Nanman Miao.
In people's eyes, the countless vegetation swaying in the wind on the mountain are the noisy Nanman Miao descendants.
In people's ears, the whine of the trees blown by the mountain wind is like the roar of the Nanman Miao people.
It was like the Ming Dynasty version of the Ming Dynasty. The grass and trees were all in war, the wind was roaring, and the young and strong people all looked ashen, terrified.
"Why, why are there so many barbarians? Last time, how many Japanese pirates came to attack the city?"
The worried young man on the road looked at his companions with a pale face, His voice trembled.
It’s late autumn, why is it so cold? ! It’s like the cold winter, I’m getting goosebumps
"Three to five thousand." The companion who was still confident on the road was no longer able to speak at this moment.
The number of Japanese pirates at that time was only three to five thousand, but now the rebellious Nanmanzi are all over the mountains and plains. There are so many people that it is difficult to count them. There must be at least seventy or eighty thousand! We only have a thousand people, how can we possibly defeat him!
Looking at the Southern Barbarian Miao descendants all over the mountains and plains, deep despair arises from the bottom of my heart and grows wildly.
"Your Majesty, please punish me for your humble position and incompetence!" Liu Dianli came back with a face of shame and knelt down on one knee to plead guilty to Zhu Pingan.
"Liu Dianli, please rise. As I said just now, just give it a try, no need to force it. Besides, Liu Dianli did not return without success. After Liu Dianli just tried it, I already know The Miao descendants of the Southern Barbarians are both false and true.”
Zhu Ping'an stretched out his hands to help Liu Dianli up and encouraged him with a smile.
"Ah? The county magistrate already knows the reality of the Nanman Miao descendants?!" Hearing this, Liu Dianli couldn't help but was stunned for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "The county magistrate has discovered that the Nanman people are so numerous that nothing can be done today. Do you still need to go back and make a long-term plan? "
Liu Dianlijue just gave it a try, and his greatest achievement was that he found that there were too many rebellious Nanman Miao people, and they were all over the mountains and plains. If a large army were to attack from the beginning, the thousand of them would not be enough for the Southern Barbarians to fill their teeth.
Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly and shook his head, pointing to the mountains where the rebellious Southern Barbarian Miao descendants were entrenched and said to Liu Dianli, "Haha, Liu Dianli, look carefully, how many Southern Barbarian Miao descendants are there all over the mountains and plains?!"
"There are so many." Liu Dianli didn't know why.
"Haha, don't you think it's strange? Since the other party has a large number of people and we only have a thousand or so, why didn't the other party take advantage of the situation when we just arrived and before our foothold was stable, to cover up and kill them?!"
< br>Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
Hearing this, Liu Dianli broke out in cold sweat. If the rebel Nanman really attacked and killed his side while his footing was not stable, as the county leader said, his side might have been wiped out.
Why didn’t the Nanmanzi take the opportunity to attack? Did you miss this great opportunity in vain? !
"Maybe it's because the rebellious southern barbarians don't know the art of war? They can't seize the opportunity." Liu Dianli hesitated and said hesitantly.
"No. If the Nanman Miao people don't understand the art of war and act recklessly, and see that our people have few advantages to take advantage of, they will attack and kill them without hesitation." Zhu Pingan smiled slightly and said softly.
"Why is that?" Liu Dianli asked in confusion.
“That’s because they are fierce in appearance but weak on the inside, strong on the outside but candid on the inside. They look like they have a large number of people, but in fact they are just an illusion. There are not many more people they can fight than us, otherwise they wouldn’t be so cautious. Precisely because they have no guarantee of victory I'm sure it's precisely because they were afraid of our army that they didn't attack while our army was still on its feet." Zhu Pingan turned his head, looked at Liu Dianli and the people behind him, stretched out his finger and pointed at the Southern Barbarian Miao descendants all over the mountains and plains. He explained loudly and confidently.
"The more they bluff, the more timid they become." Zhu Ping'an said to everyone with a determined look.
Hearing this, Liu Dianli and everyone couldn't help but suddenly realized, and the color returned to their gray faces.
yes.
What the county magistrate said is that the Nanmanzi seem to be powerful in numbers, but in fact they are like silver-like pewter spear heads, which are not useful but good in appearance. My family knows their own situation, and the Nanmanzi know their own situation very well, so they don't attack and kill them.
The fear and despair in everyone's hearts suddenly dissipated a lot, and the morale that was on the verge of collapse also recovered a lot.
"Liu Dianli, you lead three hundred people to cut down trees, set up antlers, fences, and set up camps; Han Dianli, you lead two hundred people to build military tents; Qian Dianli, you lead one hundred people to bury pots and make pots "Food." After Zhu Ping'an stabilized people's hearts, he waved his hand and ordered everyone to set up camp and bury pots to make rice.
Logging, setting up camp, burying pots to make rice
Zhu Ping'an and his party set up camp and cooked rice in a grand and arrogant manner at the foot of the mountain.
When everyone was setting up camp, Zhu Ping'an called Liu Dadao and Liu Daqiang and said to them: "Dadao and Daqiang, you have to work harder. Take fifty brothers to guard two miles ahead to guard against surprise attacks." . ”
“Don’t worry, sir, as long as we are here, we will never give the Nanman any chance.” Liu Dadao and the others took the order and left.
Soldiers are also deceitful.
Arrogance and confidence are just for show to the Southern Barbarian Miao people, but Zhu Ping'an is actually very cautious. When setting up camp and cooking pots, patrolling, scouting, and standing guard are all available.
On a mountain where the Miao descendants of the Southern Barbarians were entrenched, a man with bare arms and a wolfskin came to an old woman in her fifties. He knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, Minggou is camping at the foot of the mountain, burying pots and making pots." It’s time to eat.”
This old woman is Mrs. Yilan, the chieftain of Wuxi Miao. She was originally the wife of Longlu, the chieftain of Wuxi Miao. Later, Longlu was killed in a war against the disobedient tribes. Poisoned arrows, poisonous and fatal. Mrs. Yilan has inherited the position of chieftain for more than 20 years. Mrs. Yilan was a strong woman. She not only suppressed the opposition within the tribe, inherited the position of chieftain as a woman, but also avenged Longlu and eradicated the disobedient tribe. For more than 20 years, she firmly held the position of chieftain. Her prestige among the tribe was much higher than when Longlu was at his peak, and she was deeply supported by Wuxi Miao.
"If you have nothing to fear, Ming people will have something to rely on. Dry bones fight, and order Ah Human and the others not to act rashly, and not to fall into Ming people's traps."
Mrs. Yilan leaned on a tiger With a cane in his head, and with the support of a girl, he walked a few steps forward. When he came to a protruding stone, he climbed onto it with the help of a girl, and looked down the mountain for a moment. Looking at the swaggering and confident Zhu Ping'an's people who were setting up camp and cooking pots at the foot of the mountain, his eyes became more cautious, and Shaoqing turned his head. He ordered the man who was kneeling on one knee.
"I obey, Lord." Qian Guda took the order and left.
Deeply mourn the martyrs and compatriots who died in the fight against the new coronavirus epidemic! Way to go, hero! The dead rest in peace, and the living strengthen themselves.
