Flower Stealing Master

Chapter 502: Burial Ground

When the three finished writing, everyone in the hall stretched their necks to look, wanting to see what method the three were thinking of.

On Huang Rong’s white palm wrote the words “fire attack”, Xiao Feng’s palm wrote “night attack”, and Song Qingshu’s hand wrote “explosive”.

“It seems that everyone has the same idea.” Song Qingshu laughed, “Although it is written differently, it actually means the same thing.”

Huang Rong smiled slightly: “The Golden Snake Camp has fewer people, while Tu Hai has more people. We know this, and so does Tu Hai, but the invader soldiers may not know this. As long as we can reasonably use the cover of night to make ordinary invader soldiers mistakenly believe that there are enemies everywhere, and we will succeed more than half of the time.”

“Yes,” Xiao Feng nodded, “Just as Madame. Guo said, we should burn the army’s provisions at night while attacking, which can create panic. Once we blow up the camp successfully, the 30,000 elite Eight Banners are just lambs to be slaughtered.”

Many of the other people in the hall did not understand military affairs, but after listening to the three people talking, they all looked like they had a lot of wisdom, and their confidence increased greatly. 

Only one person was frowning.

“Master Chen, if you have anything to say, please speak directly.” Song Qingshu was in the position of the Golden Snake King, and he had a clear view of all the situations in the hall. Naturally, he saw Chen Jinnan’s expression of wanting to say something but stopping.

“Please forgive me for pouring some cold water on you. I have dealt with Tu Hai before. He is definitely the best general in the Qing Dynasty. He has always been strict in managing his troops. Every time he sets up camp, he will send a large number of scouts to monitor the movements within a radius of dozens of miles. Once there is any movement around, he will get the news immediately. It is probably difficult to succeed in a night attack. Moreover, even if they succeed in attacking the invader camp, as long as Tu Hai is in charge, the 30,000 Eight Banners soldiers will definitely not blow up the camp.”

Chen Jinnan frowned. The method that Song Qingshu and the other two had just thought of was indeed very likely to succeed if it was used against an ordinary cowardly general, but Tu Hai had experienced hundreds of battles. The Li Chuang troops that swept the world in those days were all defeated by him. How could he not be able to prevent an ordinary night attack?

Song Qingshu seemed to have expected that someone would have such doubts. He smiled and said, “Master Chen has a point, but all this is based on the situation that Tu Hai is in charge of the central army. What if… Tu Hai is dead?”

Chen Jinnan was stunned and said subconsciously, “Could it be that Master Song wants to assassinate Tu Hai? Master Song is a martial artist, but if he wants to take the head of a general from among thousands of troops, I’m afraid…”

Chen Jinnan didn’t finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant. After all, taking the head of a general from among thousands of troops is really shocking. Only a few people in history have accomplished this feat.

Xiao Feng is famous for breaking into the chaos and capturing the rebellious King of the Southern Court, Yelu Chongyuan. However, the bigger reason for that time was that Yelu Chongyuan was courting death. He thought he had won, so he swaggered in front of the battle not far from Xiao Feng, giving Xiao Feng the opportunity.

It is impossible to kill their commander Tu Hai in the midst of 30,000 troops, even if all the great masters in the world work together.

“Master Chen, don’t worry. I have my own way to kill Tu Hai.” Song Qingshu sighed secretly in his heart. Since he came to this wonderful world, perhaps because of the values ​​of his previous life, he has never been able to treat human life as worthless, so he has always avoided killing people. Unfortunately, he is not the thief Chu Liuxiang, and there will always be times when he has to take action.

Song Qingshu recalled the people he killed. In fact, each of them had no grudges against him, but it was a pity that Zhilan was in power and had to be eliminated.

This Tu Hai is the same. When Song Qingshu was still in the Qing court, he had met this old general several times. He was a general worthy of respect. It was a pity that the two sides had different positions and were destined to be unable to come together.

‘You are really hypocritical…’ Song Qingshu muttered to himself silently, ‘If you want to kill people, you still find so many excuses. What else can it be but hypocrisy. But compared to being a real villain, it is better for me to be a hypocrite, at least I have my own principles…’

When everyone in the hall heard that Song Qingshu had a way to kill Tu Hai, they were all excited, but Song Qingshu didn’t say a word afterwards, obviously he didn’t intend to tell everyone how he would kill Tu Hai, everyone started to speculate.

Xiao Feng looked at Song Qingshu thoughtfully. Under the current circumstances, he wanted to kill Tu Hai surrounded by 30,000 troops. He didn’t know how he was going to do it.

Huang Rong’s beautiful eyes were also shining, and she was very curious, ‘I wonder if he will tell me if I ask him privately…’ 

Huang Rong was startled by the sudden thought, why would she think like this…

Fortunately, everyone who stayed in the hall was a hero, and they understood that if the method of assassinating the enemy commander was known to everyone, it would probably be close to failure. Therefore, although Song Qingshu didn’t say it, everyone tacitly didn’t want to ask.

Firstly, the people in the hall now have a close relationship with Song Qingshu. Secondly, Song Qingshu’s amazing performance at the Golden Snake Conference won everyone’s recognition. Since Song Qingshu dared to claim that he could take Tu Hai’s life, these people naturally dared to believe him.

“But there is another problem,” Chen Jinnan said, “For a night attack to succeed, it must be unexpected, and the Qing army often sends a large number of scouts to sweep the area within a radius of dozens of miles. The people in the Golden Snake Camp may be exposed before they get close to the enemy camp.”

Xiao Feng nodded in agreement. He was probably the one who dealt with the Qing soldiers the most in the hall. He naturally understood that Chen Jinnan’s worries were not unreasonable. It was indeed difficult to succeed in a night attack.

Song Qingshu smiled slightly: “Everyone here should have heard of the principle that it is dark under the lamp. The attention of the Qing scouts is mainly dozens of miles outside. As long as we ambush near their camp in advance, we may be able to hide it from them.”

“How is this possible?” Chen Jinnan exclaimed, and even Xiao Feng frowned secretly. After all, when the army is outside, where to camp is the top priority. It is a comprehensive consideration of the commander of the army based on factors such as marching speed, terrain, and combat missions. Sometimes even the commander himself may not know where he will camp later.

“Tu Hai will definitely camp here at Fox Hill tomorrow, and this place is where the invader soldiers are buried.” Song Qingshu pointed to a position on the sand table and said confidently.

What a joke, the emperor of the Qing court is now his own man. If he can’t even know where Tu Hai is camping, Song Qingshu feels that he can just bump into a wall and die.

Now Song Qingshu was like playing cards with himself. Although the Golden Snake Camp had a very bad hand, he knew the Qing Dynasty’s cards very clearly, and he could also influence the Qing Dynasty’s order of playing cards as much as possible. 

No matter how good the Qing Dynasty’s cards were, if they had four 2s and a pair of kings at the beginning and flew out with four and two, they might not be able to win against the Golden Snake Camp’s bad hand…
