Chapter 31 Let the Tartars take the initiative to die

Wei Zheng was not wrong. Although the Tiger and Leopard Army has not reached the point of being crouching tigers and hidden dragons, there are still some talents.

Although this platoon leader named Zhou Chenguang does not have very good martial arts skills, his talent in interrogation and torture is unique.

If you carefully check his ancestors, you will find that Zhou Chenguang's great-grandfather once worked as a household in the Jinyiwei, and was specifically responsible for the various interrogation and torture of prisoners by the Jinyiwei Zhaozhu.

Because there are too many people who offend me in normal times, and my backstage suddenly collapsed.

Zhou Chenguang's great-grandfather was not only removed from his official position by his opponent, but also became a wanted criminal in the court. In order to keep his family alive, his great-grandfather had to take his whole family to move to the border to avoid hunting for enemies.

As time goes by, although the Zhou family has become more and more depressed, and even becomes a bandit under Wei Zheng. However, the ability of interrogation and torture has been passed down from generation to generation.

Of course, Wei Zheng was not clear about these things.

The reason why he agreed to Zhou Chenguang's request was that on the one hand, he did not want to undermine his subordinates' enthusiasm, and on the other hand, he also held the idea of ​​killing a mouse by blind cats.

However, the scene that was about to happen in front of us surprised Wei Zheng.

In less than a stick of incense, Zhou Chenguang walked over with blood. As for the two Ming soldiers dragging the bloody Tartars behind Zhou Chenguang, they had a pale face.

Just as Wei Zheng showed a trace of confusion on his face, the dying Tartars were dragged to Wei Zheng directly under the order of Zhou Chenguang and threw them to the ground.

At this moment, the Tartar lying on the ground could no longer be called a complete person. Because his ears and nose were cut off, and large trunks of blood were constantly gushing out of the wound. Not only that, a few thin bamboo sticks were inserted on the Tartar's trembling fingers, and a trace of blood was flowing out along the bamboo sticks, which was particularly miserable.

Seeing this, if Wei Zheng did not possess the mentality of the special forces soldiers in later generations, he would definitely be shiver.

However, who made Wei Zheng's soul come from later generations? After shifting his eyes from the Tartars to Zhou Chenguang in front of him with a expressionless face, Wei Zheng's gaze at Zhou Chenguang had invisibly changed from calm just now to interested.

He asked Zhou Chenguang: "Platform Leader Zhou, you really have you, you can do this. It seems that I have really discovered talent. As expected, you have asked about the eighth generation of the ancestors of this Tartar. Let me report them first. After that, I will tell me where you learned the methods of torture and confession..."

"Yes, General..." Zhou Chenguang answered calmly as if he had not experienced the interrogation just now.

"According to the Tartars' explanation, he was indeed sent by them, Niulu Zhangjing. In addition to him, there were two Tartars going to the other two detour troops."

"As for his mission, it is to bring the latest situation of the detoured troops back. Regarding the specific reasons, because he is just a soldier, he doesn't know..."

Wei Zheng nodded, and his brows that had been stretching slowly frowned. He said in a heavy tone: "The Tartars Niulu Zhangjing sent liaison troops to the three detour troops. If nothing unexpected happens, at the latest, the Tartars Niulu Zhangjing will learn that the two detour troops under his command have been wiped out by us."

"Not only that, the Tartars, who knew that they had lost more than half of their troops, would definitely choose to retreat, leave the mountains as soon as possible, ask their banner owners for help, and launch a larger encirclement and suppression of us."

The encirclement and suppression of more than 200 Tartars caused heavy losses to the Tiger and Leopard Army, not to mention the larger encirclement and suppression.

The faces of several platoon leaders around Wei Zheng quickly showed unprecedented solemnity on their faces.

At this moment, Wei Zheng's words suddenly changed and said confidently: "Brothers, don't worry too much. As of now, we no longer want to wipe out all the Tartars that entered the mountain, but we have to wipe out all the Tartars who have entered the mountain. Only by annihilation can our Tiger and Leopard Army hide in the mountains for a longer time and accumulate stronger self-protection strength..."

As long as all the Tartars entering the mountain are wiped out, the Tiger and Leopard Army can survive this possible crisis. This is what Wei Zheng revealed to everyone in his analysis.

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope slowly appeared on everyone's solemn faces.

Zhou Chenguang, covered in blood from Tartars, shouted arrogantly: "General, just give orders... There are only 130 Tartars left, and there is absolutely no problem in annihilation of them..."

Seeing several people gathering their eyes on him, Wei Zheng signaled everyone to sit on the ground, and analyzed in a calm tone: "There are two Tartars now, one with more than eighty people and one with fifty people. After the Tartars Niulu Zhang Jing knew that the other two detour troops were destroyed by us, for the sake of safety, he would definitely order the last detour troops to quickly move closer to the main force."

"The two troops join forces and retreat to Moguyu together..."

Platoon leader Li of the Second Spear Team suddenly spoke: "General, can we ambush the last Tartars detour troops halfway. If we can wipe out these fifty Tartars first, the remaining main Tartars forces will not be worrying..."

Before Wei Zheng could speak, Zhou Chenguang shook his head one step in advance and said denied.

"Party Leader Li, although this idea is good, there is basically no possibility of realization..."

"First of all, we don't know which path the Tartars take, so we rushed to the military gate to meet with them Niulu Zhangjing... Secondly, even if we know which path the Tartars take, we can't catch up with the time..."

While talking, Zhou Chenguang had already picked up a branch and drew a circle on the ground, and then placed four stones around the circle.

Then he spoke again and analyzed: "Look, this circle represents our military camp. Here is us. The last roundabout troops of the Tartars... If we want to ambush the last roundabout troops of the Tartars, we must bypass most of the military camps to achieve it."

"Judge the distance we need to take from the enemy and me. When we arrive at our destination, the Tartars detour troops have already met with their main force and began to retreat outside the mountain..."

After seeing all the performances of his subordinates, Wei Zheng, who looked satisfied, said decisively.

"You are right. The idea of ​​ambushing the third roundabout troops of the Tartars is not suitable for the time being..."

"Not only that, we can no longer stop the trend of the two Tatar armies joining forces at the same place. So, what everyone really needs to think about now is: how to eliminate them in the mountains after the two Tatar armies joining forces at the same place..."

Zhou Chenguang frowned and said with a serious face, "General, after the Tartars united, their total strength was more than 130. What's more important is that there are at least 30 Tartar archers among these more than 130 Tartars..."

"As you said just now, before we can suppress the archers of the Tartars, actively attacking the Tartars with thirty archers is to die... Therefore, the road of head-on battle with the Tartars is absolutely not feasible."

After the other two platoon leaders expressed their agreement, they kept silent because there was no solution.

After confirming that the three platoon leaders had no good ideas, Wei Zheng had to remind him: "You are right. If we don't solve the Tartar archers, we cannot attack the Tartars... However, you can think from another perspective. If we want to wipe out more than 100 Tartars entering the mountains, we don't have to take the initiative to launch an attack..."

"We can passively defend, let the Tartars attack us, and eliminate more than one hundred Tartars on the offensive road..."

Seeing his subordinate who looked thoughtful, Wei Zheng no longer hesitated and continued to speak: "My idea is to immediately arrive at the only way for the Tartars to exit the mountains, choose a suitable terrain, build a line of defense, and block the Tartars' retreat..."

"As long as we choose the right terrain and repair the temporary defense line well enough, the Tartar archers will not threaten our safety. However, the more than 200 guns in our hands can give the Tartars a fatal blow at critical moments..."

"Not only that, when the Tartars retreat, we can also order the troops who hold the barracks to follow and pursue, forcing the Tartars to attack the line we built. Otherwise, he will fall into our siege. At that time, just by being hungry, they can defeat these Tartars..."

Zhou Chenguang, who had witnessed a series of hunting methods in Wei Zheng, followed closely and added: "We can also spread traps in the dense forests around the defense line to prevent the Tartars from rushing into the dense forest when they are forced to break through... In this way, they will force the Tartars to attack our defense line..."
