Farmer's Wife Has Space

Chapter 405 Although the number of people is enough, but the combat power is not enough
Gu Zheng didn't say a word, knowing that it was a trap, he wanted to jump down too, it was impossible for him to watch his second brother fail to complete the task and be executed by the people in the palace.

Yue Lingzhi asked Gu Ming: "Then what are you going to do?"

Gu Ming took out a simple map and pointed to the three places circled in red: "On the outskirts of Yuecheng, there are many hills, and there are many bandit dens inside, but there are many bandits, well-trained, fierce and durable, and the terrain is easy to defend. It is these three places that are difficult to attack."

"Gu Changsheng is probably hiding in one of the bandit dens among the three hills."

"General Ouyang wants us to encircle and suppress those small bandit dens first, or pretend to attack one of the hills, and retreat if we can't attack, and don't make unnecessary sacrifices."

"When General Ouyang has dealt with the imperial court and a large number of reinforcements arrive, we will formally attack them."

Both Yue Lingzhi and Gu Zheng understood what General Ouyang meant.

It is to preserve strength, stay still first, and don't rush to death.

Wait for him to use his old face to see if he can get reinforcements.

Of the [-] soldiers that Gu Ming brought, more than half were recruits, not to mention that they had no actual combat experience, and their own qualities were not high, just like a group of baby soldiers.

Although the number is large enough, the combat power is not enough.

These bandit dens are Gu Changsheng's painstaking efforts for decades. Every bandit den is like a small kingdom. How can it be so easy to capture?

The imperial court also sent troops to encircle and suppress before, but every time the generals who came to encircle and suppress, they just put on a show, killed a few people casually, and then arrested a few people to go back, and they were on business.

Because those bandits are so skilled that they can reach out to the capital.

The generals who came to encircle and suppress the bandits, without exception, would receive warnings from the bandits. If they really encircled and suppressed them, he would never see his family.

The lives of the family members were pinched in the hands of the bandits, and the generals had to listen to the bandits.

These inside stories were found out by the people of Longtang.

The main reason is that these bandits don't often go out to rob the mountain, they only go out to rob once in a while, so the court doesn't know their actual situation.

I thought it was an ordinary bandit den, so I didn't pay attention to it.

It wasn't until Gu Changsheng went to the bandit dens that the spies informed the imperial court that those bandit dens were actually Gu Changsheng's troops.

After hearing the news, Gu Ming led the army to encircle and suppress.

Gu Zheng looked at Gu Ming and Ouyang Zhi: "Apart from General Ouyang's intentions, do you two have any ideas of your own?"

Ouyang Zhi is more advanced in the barracks than Gu Ming, but he is still a commander. This commander was obtained only after he destroyed a huge robbery gang last year.

Gu Ming rose faster than him, and he was not convinced at first, but later he was convinced, and the two became good friends, because he lost eight out of ten martial arts contests with Gu Ming.

Moreover, during a dangerous actual combat exercise, Ouyang Zhi almost fell off the cliff, but fortunately Gu Ming quickly caught him and pulled him up with all his strength.

Knowing that the imperial court dug a hole for Gu Ming, Ouyang Zhi was very angry, and took the initiative to ask his grandfather to fight, and he wanted to follow Gu Ming to suppress the bandits.

Ouyang Zhi and Gu Ming looked at each other, Ouyang Zhi said: "Gu Ming, tell me."

He and Gu Ming have already discussed this matter.

Almost everyone thought that they would encircle and suppress those small bandit dens first, so they might as well do it the other way around.

Gu Ming said: "Pretend to be a small fight, or sit and wait for reinforcements. Among the three bandit dens, choose the strongest one, and then encircle them by surprise!"
