"However, we have prepared a big gift for Wang Li."

"Oh? What gift?" Tian Yan asked calmly.

"Brothers Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang are taking care of it. Xiakui will soon see a good show." The Zhu family replied even more proudly... although they didn't answer anything valuable at all.

………………

Daze Mountain, the site of Shennongtang, near the Equinox Stream.

Wang Li led Bai Tu and his two men from Zhao and stopped at the front of the army.

At this time, they happened to be at a dividing point. Behind them was the charred black land that was still smoking after the fire was raging, while in front of them was the bare white land covered with large and small tree roots.

Obviously, after the fire last night reached here, it stalled because there was no combustible material.

Zhao Bu spoke first, "It seems that the farmer cut a fire prevention zone in front of Jingzhe Slope to prevent the fire from advancing."

When Bai Tu heard this, he couldn't help but murmured, "These peasants from the farm actually know how to use fire breaks?"

"After all, this bunch of mud-legged people are known as the largest sect of all schools of thought, but they still know some heresy." Wang Li said calmly.

He didn't care much about it.

As for farmers, it is normal for them to have knowledge in this area. It is not a big deal. They did not really expect to be able to burn down the enemy and defeat them.

"However, this is also a good sign."

"Ah?" Both Zhao Bu and Bai Tu were confused.

The gunfire coverage of the Hundred Wars God's Crossbow didn't work. Is this a good sign?

Wang Li's explanation followed, "They took fire prevention measures, obviously because they were afraid of being burned. What do you think they were trying to protect?"

Zhao Bu was smarter than Bai Tu and immediately replied, "According to the intelligence, Jingzhe Slope and Vernal Equinox Stream are basically the territory of Shennong Hall. They are obviously trying to protect the headquarters of Shennong Hall."

"Now that the entire outer forest has been burned by fire, they have nowhere to hide. They must have retreated into their lairs at this time!"

"Hmm!" Wang Li snorted indifferently, and then asked, "How many people do you think they need to use to cut down such a fire break?"

Knowing that Bai Tu had no brains, Wang Li simply eliminated him and only asked Zhao Bu.

Zhao Bu was as reliable as ever and gave the answer after a little analysis:

"The time from when the signal was sent out to when we launched the attack last night was very short, and the wind was heading southeast, which would speed up the spread of the fire. For the well-equipped and well-trained regular army of the empire, at least 10,000 people would be needed to do this!"

"The equipment and execution capabilities of the farmers cannot be compared with the imperial army, and the number of people is 50% more..." Wang Li smiled and continued following Zhao Bu's answer, "That is, only fifteen thousand people can do it.

.”

"General Mingjian, the last general also thinks so." Zhao Bu immediately praised Wang Li.

Although Bai Tu didn't say anything during the whole process, he was nodding wildly to add to the drama.

He knew that Wang Li had a lot of dissatisfaction with him, so he had been showing off like crazy recently... Of course, he didn't have the real ability, so he was mainly responsible for flattery.

With Wang Li's character, he really needs such a flattering character around him.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, Wang Li doesn't care about how others praise him at this moment. What matters more to him is numbers:

"In this way, fifteen thousand heads will be found!"

Seeing Wang Li's confident look on his face, Zhao Bu hesitated, "General..."

"What's wrong?"

"The farmer's ability to mobilize fifteen thousand people so quickly is quite amazing. Are we..."

He wanted to advise Wang Li to be more cautious and not to attack hastily.

But Wang Li didn't care. Even if Tian Yan deviated from the plan he had promised, he didn't care at all. Instead, he asked with a smile:

"Wouldn't it be no fun if the prey was just taken by the neck?"

Of course it's okay for a bunch of dirt-legged farmers to do some physical work, but when it comes to fighting... they are the professional soldiers!

It should be said that Wang Li's contempt for the farmers is not unreasonable. They really don't know how to fight.

But Wang Li's excessive contempt made him subconsciously ignore more possibilities...ignoring the problems from around him, and also ignoring the operation of inviting foreign aid.

And what Han Xin wants is this contempt.

Wang Li stretched out his hand towards Bai Tu, who was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He took out the map he was carrying and handed it over.

This is a map made by Wang Li's scout troops after investigation and combined with intelligence. Generally speaking, its accuracy is very reliable.

Wang Li unfolded the map and observed it carefully. After confirming that his plan was feasible, he immediately ordered:

"Send the order, advance along the Vernal Equinox Stream, and sweep the entire Jingzhe Slope!"

Jingzhe Slope is located in the upper reaches of the Vernal Equinox Stream. It controls one of the most important entrances and exits of Daze Mountain. It is a key location that must not be missed, and it is also a place that Shennongtang must defend - even if it wants to retreat, there is no place to retreat.

Wang Li felt that he had defeated the other party.

Zhao felt that it was a bit risky, but military orders could not be violated, and the risk should not be great. At most, the advance would be frustrated and there would be more twists and turns, so he did not say much and followed the orders honestly.

Bai Tu would not oppose Wang Li even more.
