Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 156
Since Liu Man'er came to this Yaozi Village, one reason was that she didn't want to be separated from Ye Yuan, and the other reason was that she wanted to see if she could think of a way to help Ye Yuan.

At any rate, as a later generation, although she has never read military books, she has seen a lot of things about war just by watching TV. She still knows a few tricks, so after waking up the next day, Liu Man'er After resting for a while, he asked Ye Yuan to take her around.

The main reason is to take a closer look at the terrain of the Yaozi village. Although Ye Yuan doesn't know what Liu Man'er wants to do, it's rare for her to make a request, so he brought a hundred soldiers and personally accompanied Liu Man'er in the Yaozi village. Turned around.

Liu Man'er took a look, no wonder these people are not easy to attack. Although there is only one road in Yaozi Village, there are mountains on both sides of the road. The things inside are enough to smash people to death.

With such a small number of people, it is impossible to attack by force.

But after Liu Man'er looked around, Liu Man'er immediately came up with a plan to make them go down the mountain and surrender.

The strategy is actually very simple to answer, but it is to treat the other person in the same way. The horse bandit burned her village and her house, and she also attacked with fire, not afraid that they would not come down the mountain.

This kite village is like a mouth, they hide in the mouth, the smoke can't come out, the wind is strong, if it blows, they will naturally be smoked out.

Of course, those condemned prisoners will not surrender. Liu Man'er mainly wants to let those people with a bit of conscience escape from the mountain while taking advantage of the smoke. As long as they let them guard these paths, there is no need to worry.

So Liu Man'er came here this time to find out if there is any trail in Yaozi village. It's a pity that her handsome guy didn't bring her, otherwise, she could find the road for her.

But don't worry, there are still some villagers who have not been bewitched near Yaozi Village, just ask the hunters or woodcutters among them.

"Ye Yuan, ask someone to go to the nearby village and ask, is there any path to go down the mountain from Yaozi Village?" Liu Man'er looked at Ye Yuan sideways, the two were very close.

After hearing Liu Man'er's words, Ye Yuan immediately ordered someone to ask, while asking Liu Man'er again, "Ma'am, do you have any good ideas?"

"Don't call me madam, I've got goosebumps." Liu Man'er felt a little alienated when she heard Ye Yuan call her that, and said, "I thought of an idea, but I still have to go back and discuss it with you guys. is it suitable."

"Okay." Ye Yuan didn't say much, just accompanied her to see the surrounding scenery.

It was April and May, and the scenery was superb. If it weren't for the haze of horse bandits hanging over the two of them, it would be a good place for a spring outing.

The two wandered slowly on the road, and after a while, those who asked for directions also came back. This question really found out several trails, besides the right road, there are still three or two trails, Liu Man'er He and Ye Yuan went to have a look, but they were inevitably spotted by these horse thieves, so they just turned around to note down the location, and then went back.

Back at the camp, Ye Yuan asked her, "Man'er, you just said you have a good plan?"

"It's not a good strategy. I read it from a storybook. It's quite appropriate to use it here." Liu Man'er said, "I thought of attacking with fire."

"Fire?" Ye Yuan hesitated for a moment, then paused, as if he had suddenly realized, "Man'er, you are so smart, this is indeed a good idea."

"It would be great if I could help you guys." Liu Man'er smiled slightly.

After hearing the idea of ​​attacking with fire, Ye Yuan first walked around in the tent, then sat in front of the table, wrote and drew, and started to formulate a plan.

It is already the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and the grass in Yaozi Village is growing densely. If some oil is secretly transported and sprinkled on it, it will burn with the wind.

"Man'er, no wonder you are looking for a small road, do you want us to sneak up there to sprinkle oil on the fire?" Ye Yuan looked sideways at Liu Man'er.

"Well, by the way, we can hold this road and catch all the escaped horse bandits." Liu Man'er's eyes turned hard.

Burn my home, hehehe, now I will burn your lair.

Yaozi Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but no matter how difficult it is to attack, there are still ways to attack it. At least there are small roads to go up this Yaozi Village. In history, some villages are so dangerous that soldiers can go up without flying ropes. Not to go, but there is also a way to take them down.

Liu Man'er was able to think of this method because of a character she learned in the history of her previous life——Liu Bowen, it is said that he was a child prodigy when he was a child, and his reputation spread far and wide. I found Liu Bowen and asked him to come up with a way.

What Liu Bowen was thinking at the time was to use fire to attack. The terrain of the village was several times more dangerous than that of Yaozi Village. People shot into the stockade.

Four months later, on the stockade, weeds were growing everywhere, and finally Liu Bowen asked someone to use a rocket to ignite them, and instantly wiped out the gangsters.

This strategy is called Caoziji, and now there is grass in the Yaozi village, which is fairly dense, so she doesn't have to work so hard to wait for the grass to grow, and she has people go to the path to ambush, it should work.

Taking a step back, if these key horse bandits hide in the woods and are not caught, she can also get out the food they robbed and distribute it to the villagers, so that the villagers can survive this spring.

How long can these horse bandits hide in the mountains without food?
At that time, in addition to ambush the small road, these 500 people can also guard the main road. At that time, these horse bandits will definitely have nowhere to escape.

After thinking about this strategy, Ye Yuan told his subordinates that when night fell, they began to prepare. First, they asked people to walk on the path. Of course, although the horse thief also made people guard a mountain path, there was no one on this path. After the people at the entrance of the cave were dealt with, Ye Yuan's soldiers secretly sprinkled oil all the way to the entrance of the cave, and then lit it on fire from a distance.

This Yaozi village is full of rough men. Except for the grass at the entrance of the cave and the road connected to the road, there are not so diligent people who would take the initiative to weed the grass. At this moment, it is convenient for their fire attack plan.

Although some of these grasses are new, there are also quite a few old grasses. These people took torches and lit them around, and they caught fire at one point.

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Ye Yuan arranged for the people to come down the mountain, and set up an ambush on several trails at the foot of the mountain.

When the fire had reached a certain level, the people guarding the road discovered it, and hurried into the cave to notify it. However, the water source of this Yaozi village is not well developed, so it is not so easy to put it out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, some people who were forced to come fled down the mountain, Ye Yuan asked them to be guarded, and they will be questioned later, while others planned to escape by the path.

"Brother, the court set the fire on, let's go quickly." Someone shouted.

"No, I'm in this cave, and the fire can't burn it." This ordinary horse bandit brother has already thought of the grand occasion when he will occupy the mountain as king with more and more subordinates in the future. Despicable and shameless people attack with fire.

Yes, the fire cannot be burned, but the smoke coming from all directions is enough to make people faint.

It just so happens that some grass is wet and not dry, but the advantage of wet grass is that it smokes heavily, and the thick smoke goes straight into the cave, and some horse bandits who can't bear it have already started to pack up and flee.

In the end, the leader of the horse bandit had to pack up his things and run out with a knife.

Originally, they thought about developing from Yaozi village, but they didn't expect their plan to die in the womb.

As Liu Man'er expected, these vicious people did not dare to take the big road, they could only take the small road.

They were careful and cautious all the way, afraid of meeting people from the court, but they were lucky, and they didn't meet any officers and soldiers.

"Fortunately, I still know the two trails, otherwise this time it would be over." When he was almost down the mountain, a horse bandit said.

However, just as the man finished speaking, he was shot in the chest by an arrow.

Immediately afterwards, more and more arrows were shot at them, and after avoiding them for a while, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared.

"Are you ambush here?" The voices of the remaining few people trembled a little.

"Yes, since you know that you still want to come here?" These officers and soldiers slowly surrounded them and escorted them away.

This operation went very smoothly, although Liu Man'er didn't follow Ye Yuan, she wanted to follow, but Ye Yuan was afraid that she would be in danger, so he only let her stay in the tent and let people watch her.

The fire didn't go out until midnight, and the whole Yaozi Village was covered in smoke and dust.

The next day, Ye Yuan ordered these horse bandits to be sent to the government, and transported the food they robbed down the mountain, intending to return it to the common people.

Of course, don’t think about those gentry and landlords, but in fact, most of the finances here belong to these gentry and landlords, and the common people account for a minority.

Ye Yuan distributed the food to the people in several nearby villages, and some silver taels, Ye Yuan distributed to his soldiers as a reward for their operation, and the rest was used for military expenses.

After Liu Man'er saw it, she smiled and said, "You bandit suppressors sound good, and you can also increase military expenses."

Ye Yuan also only smiled, and said: "Rob from the rich and give to the poor."

Liu Man'er also laughed, she never expected that these horse bandits would have looted so much property in just a short month.

Of course, she doesn't want to think about the things she lost, but it is a great thing to be able to sweep away this horse bandit den and bring these horse bandits to justice. The haze that has been haunting everyone's hearts for a long time can finally dissipate.

As for the shadow left behind, I am afraid it will be difficult to dissipate.
