Chapter 191: Soldiers face down the mountain, defending with offense

After hearing the modifications proposed by Hu Ye, perhaps it should be said that it was a proposition to tamper with the doctrine of the Ming Cult. In addition to being shocked, the leaders of the Ming Cult also felt a little excited and expectant.

After all, if this big thing can be accomplished and the Middle Earth Ming Cult overwhelms the Persian throne and becomes a true story, they must have left a strong mark in the Ming Cult classics.

As the saying goes: "It is famous at that time and is honored in later generations." A real man should be like this!

However, although the matter has been decided, it will not be a day to accomplish it. Moreover, another major event in front of them has no time to spend time on it.

On the second day after Hu Ye succeeded as the leader, the Yuanmeng Army with a force of 30,000 came near Guangmingding. The head commander of the central army was Wang Baobao, the prince of King Ruyang who had been captured by Hu Ye before.

As the main hall of the Ming Cult, Guangmingding naturally dispatched far and near sentry probes from all directions, and reported this matter to the ruling leader.

After Hu Ye asked about the inquiries, he ordered the troops stationed at Qidian Thirteen Cliffs and other passes to strictly guard the troops, and quickly summoned the heads of the sect to discuss matters.

Yang Xiao first made a suggestion: "The leader clearly observed that Cheng Kun knew the secret path of Guangmingding, and Wang Baobao, as his master, probably also knew it. We need to beware of the Tartars' sneak attack from the secret path."

Hu Ye said after a moment of contemplation: "Wang Baobao is very talented. He should have thought that we would guard against him. However, the two armies must not be lucky in fighting each other. They must always respond to the orders - the Yanqi envoy of the 'Hou Tu Banner' obeyed the order!"

Yan Yuan hurriedly stepped out and bowed, "I am waiting for the order of the leader!"

Hu Ye said solemnly: "You will immediately lead your brothers to the secret road, transport huge rocks to completely seal the entrance to the secret road outside, and then slowly chisel them open after retreating behind the enemy."

"Subordinate to obey the order!"

Yan Yuan agreed and turned around and walked out quickly.

Hu Ye looked around everyone and smiled, "Although Wang Baobao probably won't attack by the secret path, he will inevitably set up an ambush to prevent us from escape from the secret path, so there is no need to leave this retreat."

Everyone said in unison: "The leader is very clear, this is what it should be!"

Hu Ye asked Zhuang Zheng, the flag-holder of the "Rui Jinqi", again: "The Zhuangqi envoy, the five-element flag brothers stationed at the foot of the mountain, can all withdraw to the mountain, how many people are there?"

Zhuang Zheng glared at Yang Xiao first, and then replied: "After the labor camp, the brothers of the Five Elements Banner have all gone up the mountain. Due to the inconvenience in the past, the main forces of the Five Elements Banner have also stationed. At this moment, there are 2,500 people on the mountain, each of which is 500. But the leader can rest assured that these 2,500 brothers are all elite masters selected repeatedly from the Five Elements Banner. It is no problem to be ten."

Yang Xiao's face was a little embarrassed. He naturally knew that the "inconvenience" mentioned in the other party's words was that he used to be afraid of the strong soldiers and strong horses of the Five Elements Flag and refused to obey him. He relied on his power to suppress and exclude food, supplies and other aspects, forcing them to transfer their main force to another place to eat.

The Budai monk said he was not very familiar with the general idea. He knew that the enemy was in front of him and he should unite to resist foreign humiliation. He took the initiative to rescue Yang Xiao: "In addition to the brothers of the Five Elements Flag, there are more than 2,000 brothers from Yang Zuo's four gates of Heaven, Earth, Wind and Thunder. Our subordinates of the five scattered people are no less than 4,500. We have to count for a few, our troops are more than 5,000. The Tartars have only 30,000 troops. If they want to capture the Guangming Ting with natural dangers, it would be a delusion!"

Peng Yingyu also said: "Guangmingding has stored a large amount of food, grass and weapons for our teaching masters. It is not a problem to hold on for a year or two. The Tartars could not conquer for a long time, and in the end they had to retreat."

Zhuang Zheng hesitated for a moment and bowed to the top: "About the current battle, Wu Jincao, the deputy flag commander of his subordinate, needs to report some of the situation to the leader."

Hu Ye hurriedly said, "Then please ask Brother Wu to come in and speak."

Zhuang Zheng immediately went out to call people in person, and soon he brought a young man with thick hands and dark skin in.

Wu Jincao first came forward to pay homage to the leader, and then said with a serious expression: "I just learned about it. If the situation is true, this time I will not be optimistic about defending the mountain."

Hu Ye was carrying the supernatural power of "seeing the sky and hearing the earth", but in fact he had already figured it out in his mind and immediately asked: "Brother Wu is worried about, but the twenty cannons in the enemy?"

Wu Jin looked shocked on the grass: "It turns out that the leader already knows it, but his subordinates are worried about it."

Hu Ye waved his hand and said, "Although I know that Wang Baobao has these cannons in his hand, I don't know how powerful they are, so I ask Brother Wu to explain it to everyone."

Wu Jincao bowed to everyone and said, "You should know that the ancestors of the Wu family have been blacksmiths for generations. In addition to forging swords, guns, swords and halberds, they have also made some research on the military weapons such as muskets and cannons. I have confirmed the shape and size of the Tartar cannons with many brothers, and we can confirm that they all have the power of breaking mountains and cracking stones.

"I originally thought that although the cannons were powerful but too heavy, they would not be able to take the mountain road to attack various passes on our mountain. But later I heard that Wang Baobao had many masters of the "Vajra Sect". These people were all those who practiced external brute force. I was afraid that they could carry the cannons up the mountain if they were lifted.

"Once the Tartars set up artillery in front of our passes, with their range far beyond the bow and arrow, we will have to be beaten and cannot fight back. If the Tartars have sufficient gunpowder and shells, it is really possible to break through the dangerous fortresses one by one and kill to the top of Guangming!"

Wei Yixiao heard a white face turned pale and asked, "Are Brother Wu's method of urging firearms, can there be a solution?"

Wu Jincao said with some distress: "The best way is to use firearms to counter firearms. Unfortunately, although his subordinates have also thought about the methods of making firearms, they have never had the opportunity to build them. In addition, they either sent a brave death-like man to raid and destroy these artillery, or dig hidden tunnels at every pass, but it is not a complete solution."

After hearing this, everyone was talking, but they couldn't think of a better way. Finally, they gradually stopped talking and turned their eyes to Hu Xiao, who was smiling but not talking, as if he was confident.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Hu Ye stood up from his seat, bowed to his left and right and said, "This is the first battle to make a reputation after many years of silence in our headquarters. I think we must not only win this battle, but also win beautifully.

"So, I decided to personally lead 2,500 brothers from the Five Elements Banner down the mountain and defeat the 30,000 Yuan Meng's army in a dignified manner. Brother Wu, I know that you are the best in the world, so I will work hard to forge a weapon for me for the last battle..."

"The leader thinks twice!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and spoke out and tried to dissuade them.

Hu Ye raised his hand to make everyone restless, and then smiled and said with a smile: "Wang Baobao was captured by me once, and at this moment he must be determined to avenge his previous shame. If he saw me leading my army down the mountain, he would set up a formation to fight with me, and would personally command the army in front of the battle. As long as he dared to show up, I would be sure to implement the preface and kill this son in front of the formation. At that time, the Yuan army would inevitably be in chaos, so I can take advantage of the momentum to defeat him."
