Chapter 572 Zhang He's Old Sixth Military Strategy! Ma Su: No mini hamburgers!
"Yes, this Hammer God Mountain is indeed a good choice."
Meng Yi patted Ma Su on the shoulder.
Last time, everyone thought it was his son Meng Huo who beat Ma Su with a stick.
Little did they know, Meng Huo was merely a sly fox.
Meng Yi was the one who truly changed Ma Su!
The overweight woman weighing around 200 pounds was just pretending.
In fact, Meng Yi accepted everything that came his way and ate anything.
Inspired by Meng Yi's words, Ma Su clasped his hands and volunteered:
"Your Majesty, Cao Cao's generals are extremely skilled in battle."
"It would be asking the king's brave generals to deal with Cao Cao's generals, which would be too much to ask."
"How about I personally guard this Hammer God Mountain?"
Meng Yi hesitated:
Have you ever led troops?
Ma Su's face turned bright red:
"If the king gives me this opportunity, won't I gain experience in commanding troops?"
Meng Yi fell silent instantly.
But thinking of Ma Su's gentleness, Meng Yi decided to give him a chance to try.
Young people should be given more leeway, more care, and more tolerance.
If Ma Su loses, come back and twist his head off!
At the same time, Meng Yi also assigned Ma Su two ruthless men, the Cave Master and King Mulu, as his deputy generals.
Regardless of their actual combat strength, the Nanman people all look quite intimidating.
A total of 25,000 soldiers, led by Ma Su, were preparing to encircle and annihilate the vanguard of Cao Cao's army under Zhang He and Pang De!
……
Ma Su's movements naturally did not escape the investigation of Zhang He and Pang De.
Wherever the two went, all the poisonous insects and snakes nearby died.
The view is absolutely fantastic!
As for the felled trees, they were handed over to the transport team and all of them were taken away.
It wouldn't be a problem for our Commander Su to occasionally play the role of a "timber tycoon".
Anyway, he's already a real estate tycoon, and he can never have too many similar titles and businesses.
"Heh, Hammer God Mountain?"
Zhang He looked towards the southwest.
Hammer God Mountain is very high, taking advantage of the various benefits brought by the terrain.
Whether it's waiting in comfort, taking a commanding position, or holding firm and refusing to engage, Ma Su will have the upper hand.
Pound sharpened his knife, his face showing concern:
“Junyi, Hammer God Mountain is very difficult to attack, and those barbarian soldiers occupying Hammer God Mountain will definitely have prepared a lot of rolling logs and rocks in advance.”
"Once our army enters the territory of Hammer God Mountain, we will be met with a fierce attack from the barbarian soldiers!"
Zhang He laughed and said:
“What Lingming said is very true.”
"I bet the guy who's been looking at the unique terrain of Mount Chongchui must be someone who's well-versed in military strategy."
"pity……"
Zhang He kept him in suspense, and Pang De quickly pressed for details:
"Junyi, tell me quickly!"
"If you only say half of what you mean, you'll end up with diarrhea in your pants!"
Zhang He's expression stiffened, and he whispered in Pang De's ear:
"In places like Hammer God Mountain, the steeper the terrain, the more difficult it is to climb up."
"If we cut off the water source of Hammer God Mountain, what will the barbarian soldiers on the mountain drink?"
Pound added:
"But such mountains are very likely to have more than one water source."
"In a short period of time, it will probably be difficult for our army to find all the water sources."
Zhang He took a light sniff of the surrounding air and smiled:
"As expected of Lingming, he hit the nail on the head and found the only difficulty in one go."
"but……"
“I, Zhang Junyi, have at least studied military strategy under Mr. Su for a period of time.”
"This problem seems incredibly easy to solve!"
Upon hearing this, Pound's face lit up with anticipation.
What Zhang He learned from Su Yu was not ordinary military strategy, but a cunning and sophisticated version of super military strategy!
In short, it is a military strategy that has been corrupted by the four evils of Cao Cao's camp, led by Su Yu.
If Sun Tzu's Art of War is about deception, then...
This version of the military strategy, which deals with the four evils of Cao Cao's camp, throws the bottom line of morality to the bottom of the sea, retaining only the most basic humanity!
Various old tricks and strategies were incorporated into it.
Regardless of whether it's shameful or the methods used are vulgar.
If it works, isn't that enough?
Having so many grand and solemn pronouncements only makes one seem pretentious.
“Lingming, the two of us don’t need to find all of Hammer God’s water sources, we only need to find the two widest ones!”
Zhang He revealed a slight, smirking smile.
Speaking of which, he has been fighting on the battlefield for many years.
It seems like it's not so bad to tease the bookworm occasionally.
……
Hammer God Mountain
Ma Su acted swiftly. After capturing Hammer God Mountain, he immediately ordered his barbarian soldiers to make rolling logs and stones, preparing to give Cao Cao's army under Zhang He and Pang De a good start!
"Sir, it's time for dinner. The brothers are all waiting for the meal!"
The guards came to Ma Su's side and reminded him.
Ma Su put down the military treatise he was holding, his brows furrowing slightly.
He thought to himself, "These barbarian soldiers are really incompetent."
Well, I still need to eat. I'll continue studying military strategy after I finish eating.
The food of the barbarians was hardly anything special.
Although there are many animals in the mountains and forests, it is impossible for a large army to stop and hunt when it is deployed.
Only a small army like the one that led Xiao Zhurong northward to Jianning would choose to travel slowly by hunting.
As for why they don't cure meat as dry rations...
Please, salt is so precious!
One of the major conflicts between ethnic minorities and the Han people throughout history has been the salt and iron conflict.
Foreigners always wanted to extract more salt and iron from the Han people.
Therefore, the barbarian army's food was hardly plentiful.
Ma Su found the food tasteless and unpalatable, and found it difficult to swallow.
At least the food was better when we were in Mengyi.
Upon arriving at Hammer God Mountain, the treatment automatically decreased significantly.
"Quick, give me some water."
After eating for a while, Ma Su really didn't want to eat anymore. He thought he should drink more water and then have his guards hunt some wild game for him that evening.
Everything seemed perfectly normal.
But after an hour, some soldiers began to experience diarrhea.
Even King Mulu and the Cave Master could not escape this fate.
"What exactly is going on?"
The large-scale diarrhea was so alarming that even the bookish Ma Su realized something was wrong.
"Sir...it must be food poisoning."
The guard said, panting.
"Is the food poisoned?"
Ma Su, however, did not think so.
If the food was poisonous, why were there no problems before, and only after this meal did the problem occur?
"Could it be a water source?"
A brilliant idea flashed through Ma Su's mind.
The next moment, he rushed to the water's edge, only to find soldiers already there, letting loose and happily making Lao Ba's secret-recipe mini hamburgers.
The diarrhea outbreak was so severe that there was nowhere to make mini burgers, so we had no choice but to come here!
