mtl008 Chapter 193 Wolf Gang
Chapter 193 Wolf Gang
Chen Changfan has not yet fully unraveled the mystery of the snow golem.
Therefore, he thought about catching more living snow golems to study slowly, but capturing them alive was much more difficult than killing them. Those soldiers were ordinary warriors, so it would be difficult for them to do so.
Since the master and disciple were so shameless as to come here to eat and drink for free, he didn't mind using these two free laborers.
Only Chen Changfan could come up with the idea of using the warriors who had climbed the stairs as laborers.
"Brother Changfan, that snow monster has thick skin and immense strength. Killing it would be fine, but capturing it alive..."
Lu Zixuan was a little embarrassed.
"Catch him alive! As an elder of the Ink Blade Sect, how difficult is it for me to capture the snow monster alive?"
Xiong Qing was a man who cared about his reputation, so he agreed immediately.
After hearing this, Chen Changfan immediately added more meat to the two of them and also brought out some lantern wine to entertain them.
The two of them drank and ate meat happily, completely forgetting that the more they ate, the more they would have to work.
After eating and drinking, Chen Changfan arranged a warm and clean hot spring suite for the two of them, which touched them deeply.
Chen Changfan was not surprised at the two's reactions.
Anyone who hears the words "free food and accommodation" will be confused, let alone such high-standard treatment like that of an emperor.
You two can enjoy yourself today, and tomorrow you have to go out and catch snow monsters!
……
On the arrow tower.
Chen Changfan watched from afar.
"Haven't Lao Wei and Zhang Yi taken down the snow monster yet?"
It was seen that the two snow monsters had varying degrees of damage, but they were still extremely ferocious. The two groups of people had not yet captured them, and some soldiers were even injured.
It seems that the combat capabilities of these soldiers are not strong enough, and perhaps the training should be improved.
A strong army should be able to fight and win no matter what kind of enemy it faces.
When marching and fighting, one cannot simply show off one's bravery. One must be as sharp and fierce as a wolf. Once one seizes the enemy's weakness, one must strike the enemy deadly blow and win at the lowest cost.
"Blacksmith Han, take out ten sets of armor and send them to Old Wei and the others!"
"Hu the bricklayer, take the trap and the crossbow to Zhang Yi!"
Chen Changfan gave an order and looked towards the distant battlefield again.
He now passed the solution to the problem to the two of them. If they still couldn't defeat the snow monster, it only meant that the two of them were too stubborn and were not suitable for leading troops in battle.
After a while, the armor arrived. Old Wei was startled at first, but then his face showed joy. He raised his arm and shouted,
"Quickly leave the battle, put on your armor and mount your horses!"
The soldiers did as they were told and quickly put on their armor and assembled under Lao Wei's command.
Before the snow monster could react, Lao Wei led everyone and launched the first charge.
Roar!
The snow monster roared and threw several snowballs, but they had no effect on everyone's armor.
Instead, after a wave of charge, one of its arms was directly broken, causing the snow monster to roar in pain.
Seeing that the attack was effective, Lao Wei's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Keep charging!"
After several charges, the snow monster was smashed to pieces and finally fell to the ground with a bang.
"Captain Wei, remember to take back the crystal core." Blacksmith Han reminded.
On the other side, Zhang Yi had ordered people to combine the bows and crossbows with the animal-catching nets.
call out!call out!
As the bows and crossbows were fired, several large nets trapped the snow monster tightly, and the crowd rushed over and hacked it to death with their swords.
……
On the arrow tower, Chen Changfan slowly withdrew his gaze and jumped off the arrow tower without waiting for the battle to end.
The system has automatically added the two fusion points, and the result is self-evident.
Today's battle can be regarded as a simple lesson for the soldiers.
What is a cavalry charge and what is a net-casting encirclement.
Of course, this is just a simple enlightenment.
On a real battlefield, the situation changes rapidly, and most of the time the generals have no time to take care of it. The soldiers still have to adapt to the situation and deal with it flexibly.
If you don't use your brain in war, you will suffer great losses.
Chen Changfan couldn't teach them one by one, and there was no need to do that.
“Those who have made meritorious contributions in killing the enemy and suppressing the bandits will be rewarded!
Those who capture weapons and horses will be rewarded!
Those who improve and develop tactics will be rewarded!
......"
As soon as the military order was issued, the crowd was excited and everyone wanted to pick up swords and kill monsters and bandits immediately.
Under the reward, there must be a brave man.
Then another military order was issued.
“Those who kill innocent people will be beaten to death!
Anyone who deserts the battlefield will be beaten to death!
Anyone who disobeys orders will be beaten to death!
......"
Heavy rewards must be accompanied by heavy punishments, otherwise it will be difficult to control and manage. If an army is not managed well, its morale will inevitably be low and its combat effectiveness will be weak.
I was busy with infrastructure construction before, and now with this heavy snow, I have time to free up my energy to reorganize the army.
Today, Qingshan County exists in name only.
The county government’s soldiers probably can’t even form a squad, and the government has no say at all.
Now, whoever has the stronger troops will have a stronger backbone.
That night, the snow outside the village was already knee-deep. Yuan Lang arrived, covered in snow and frost. "Sir, I have returned from escorting the convoy to the market. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and the supplies are all here."
According to his plan, they should have evacuated from the market in Misty Ridge yesterday.
But because business was so good before and there is still a batch of goods to be shipped today, it was delayed until today.
He had known about the blizzard disaster a long time ago, so he evacuated the market in Misty Ridge in advance.
Of course, while selling all the goods, he also ordered that the profits from the past few days be exchanged for food and firewood.
Although these two supplies have been stockpiled, no one would complain that they have too much.
If I can’t eat the grain, I’ll make wine. If I can’t finish the wine, I’ll sell it.
When heavy snow falls suddenly, the prices of all supplies will skyrocket, and naturally people will come to buy them at high prices.
"Well done, was the journey smooth?"
Yuan Lang pursed his lips and said, "We encountered a few tails on the way, and we dealt with them, but a few brothers were sacrificed."
Chen Changfan narrowed his eyes slightly, "How many people are there on the other side? Do you know where they came from?"
"It was the Wolf Gang's pups. They had a keen nose and followed us all the way. A dozen of them ambushed us in the snow and suddenly attacked us. They killed several of our brothers, but the goods are still there."
Chen Changfan opened the tent and saw wet tire tracks on the bluestone road, with spots of bright red blood.
A hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.
Wolf gang.
Chen Changfan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Among the seventeen major mountain strongholds, the Wolf Gang is considered a bandit force of medium to high strength.
"It seems that he saw that my market was making a fortune and wanted to come over to eat some meat."
Chen Changfan snorted coldly.
You want to eat my flesh, but I also want your life.
He had originally wanted to eliminate these bandits one by one, but since the Wolf Gang had shown its fangs first, he decided to start with them.
"Take one hundred men and station them at Little Brown Mountain. Be sure to keep the mines tightly closed and be at my disposal at any time."
Since the Wolf Gang is already lying in ambush on the roadside, it means that they have already spread their claws nearby.
If they discover the iron ore vein in Xiaohei Mountain, the impact will be huge.
"Call Lao Wei and Zhang Yi and tell them that we can fight this time."
Chen Changfan looked at the map on the wall, his eyes fixed on the hills of the Wolf Gang.
