Chapter 265: Paper Talk Scorpion Three Stones
Hu San now has no power to choose. The leader Xieshan can tell him to die with just one word.
After hearing what Xie Sanshi said, Hu San described the battle process again.
However, because Hu San was far away from the battlefield, he actually learned a lot about the battle process from the snake people.
Xie Sanshi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, with a hint of excitement in the corner of his eyes.
He immediately asked Hu San to tell him all the details.
"I understand. That kid has just entered the Douhuang realm. Father, let me take two Douhuangs with us, plus elite soldiers, to capture Mo City." Scorpion Sanshi clapped his palms, and the sound was as loud as metal.
Xieshan frowned. In fact, they were not prepared for a full-scale war with the Gama Empire. Sending two Douhuangs was purely a test. If they could conquer it, they would get a share of the pie. If not, forget it.
He said in a deep voice: "Kid, there is no need for us to continue to meddle in this matter."
"Father." Xie Sanshi's eyes were full of brilliance. "The Jiama Empire killed the masters of my Wanxie Sect so easily. If we don't take revenge, how can my Wanxie Sect survive in this Izumo Empire in the future?"
Seeing his son's high spirits, Xie Shan didn't want to ruin his son's intention. He thought for a moment and raised his glass: "How many men do you want?"
Xie Sanshi stood up, clasped his fists slightly, and uttered two words: "Three thousand."
puff!
Xieshan spat out the wine he had just drunk, and the other people in the hall also opened their eyes wide, with disbelief on their faces.
You know, the entire Wanxie Sect only has 5,000 disciples, and they want 3,000?! Wuya, who was standing by, saw that Xieshan looked a little embarrassed, and knew what the Sect Master meant, so he said, "Well, Young Sect Master, hiss, do you know what 3,000 people mean? How much food and grass will be consumed, how many convoys will be needed to transport these food and grass, how many personnel arrangements will be made, and what are the marching routes? Moreover, the most important thing is that the Snake People are the main force, and we are just a sideline."
"I know, but I want to win by a crushing margin."
"Impossible, the most I can give you is fifteen hundred," said Xieshan.
The maximum loss would be 1500. Anyway, he had to send two Dou Huang masters, and Xie Sanshi himself was a Dou Huang, so he didn't have to worry too much about his son's safety.
"Okay, fifteen hundred then." Xie Sanshi shrugged.
"Young Master, I know you have the ideal of leading an army. Do you have any ideas now?" As Scorpion Mountain's helper and strategist, Wu Ya asked a question that suited his status.
"I have just thought it through. Now I have a perfect plan in my mind."
"My son is really great that he planned it out so quickly." Xieshan nodded slightly, "Tell your father about it right away.
"I need 300 light cavalry, 300 archers, 400 broadsword soldiers, 200 heavy armored soldiers, and 300 spearmen, which will make exactly 1,500. Then we will raid Mocheng over a long distance, which will take about a day and a half. If we go faster, we can arrive in a day. When the time comes, we will catch the enemy off guard and will surely capture all the bandits in one fell swoop."
When it comes to talking about military strategy on paper, Xie Sanshi does have some knowledge. If you don't understand the art of war, you will definitely be stunned by what he says.
Xieshan was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his thumbs up, "Not bad, not bad, you are worthy of being my good son, you have ideals and strategies! Since you have this dream of leading an army, go and give it a try this time."
