Changli County, Jieshi Mountain.
At the foot of the mountain.
The 13th Squad's base.
The current 13th Squad's base has become the most well-equipped location for the special forces of Prince Xin's army within the pass.
The surrounding area, spanning dozens of miles, was under the control of the Thirteenth Squad and the militia. Moreover, the Thirteenth Squad was located in the Jieshi Mountains, making its defense relatively secure.
At this time, six or seven squad leaders arrived at the Thirteenth Squad's base; they were all squad leaders from other squads.
This was the first time that all the team leaders had gathered together like this since they split up at the seaside in Changli County.
Inside the house, eight team leaders sat, with militia team leaders from neighboring villages also present.
With spring water from Jieshi Mountain laid out in front of them, the group drank and chatted.
"Captain Gu, your Thirteenth Squad is truly a role model for us!"
Li Wenxuan said, "Look, it hasn't been long since we split up at the seaside, and Captain Gu is already making great strides in Changli County."
Every village under their command now has its own militia, and they've even captured Changli County. The militia must number three or four thousand people in total, right?
"more than."
A militia captain said, "We have a lot of militia here, with a total of five or six thousand people."
"Wow, this is impressive!"
Zhou Tieniu laughed and said, "When I go back this time, I, Tieniu, will definitely learn from your experience. By the way, Lao Gu, when you leave, let us take some people with us to share our experience with you."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Li Wenxuan nodded and said, "That's a good idea. Let's bring some people to share their experience so that our side can develop faster!"
"OK!"
Gu Shisan readily agreed.
After chatting for a while, Gu Shisan got to the point and said, "Let's put the development of the militia team on hold for now."
Our main task today is to discuss how to deal with the imperial grain transport team and the enemy forces under Wu Junsheng.
When we arrived, His Highness repeatedly instructed us to do everything possible to cut off the supply of logistical materials between the capital and the front line at Yuguan.
It plays a significant role in frontline operations!
This time, in particular, according to the reports from the scouts, the imperial court dispatched a grain transport team of more than 3,000 people to escort 120,000 shi of grain, enough for the front-line army to sustain itself for a month.
We can't let them get all this grain and supplies to the front lines. We need to find a way to do something!
At the very least, the grain transport team should be made to suffer; if they could destroy all the grain, that would be even better!
"The grain transport team is indeed a fat sheep!"
Li Wenxuan frowned and said, "However, even a fat sheep is not easy to eat!"
The grain transport team alone consisted of two to three thousand elite imperial soldiers, and there were also cavalry escorts in Jizhou.
According to intelligence, Wu Junsheng's troops moved towards the official road, probably to escort the grain transport team.
Added together, that's 15,000 enemy soldiers!
With such a large escort team, it would be quite difficult for us to tamper with the grain transport convoy!
"It is indeed not an easy task!"
Nie Rongsheng nodded slightly and said, "If it's an escort team with guards constantly by our side, it will be very difficult for us to make a move!"
"Old Zhou, could you slow down Wu Junsheng's troops a bit? If they weren't with the grain transport team, wouldn't it be easier for us to succeed?"
"We can do it!"
Zhou Tieniu said, "During this period, our squad and the nearby militia have been harassing Wu Junsheng's troops. However, Wu Junsheng's troops are determined to go to the official road and escort the grain transport team. No matter how much we try to restrain them, we can't stop them!"
"You definitely can't pull her back!"
Gu Shisan nodded and said, "It would be difficult to achieve this using this method. This grain transport team is carrying a large amount of grain, and the imperial court and Zhang Fuchen will definitely treat it with caution."
It's estimated that Wu Junsheng's troops haven't reached the designated location, and the grain transport team is unlikely to advance. I think we should focus on the main road.
If there's any way to slow down the grain convoy, we'll have a chance to succeed!
"Slow down the grain transport teams?"
Zhou Tieniu said, "That's easy, just keep planting landmines!"
"There's another way,"
At this moment, Wang Erxi, the militia captain sitting to the side, spoke up: "Captain Gu, what if the official road is damaged? Won't the grain transport team's carts be unable to pass?"
Even in the past, it probably wouldn't be that easy!
Besides, with over ten thousand shi of grain, there must be countless grain carts alone. With the official roads damaged, they'll have to expend a great deal of effort to transport the grain.
"Isn't this exactly what I said?"
Zhou Tieniu said, "Just blow up the official road!"
"Do you think the official road here is paved with concrete like in Dongning?"
Li Wenxuan shook his head and said, "You blow up the official road, they send some people to level it, and it will pass by again in no time."
"That's true."
Zhou Tieniu was somewhat disappointed. He said helplessly, "If only there were a way to destroy the official road so that it couldn't be repaired!"
"There really is a way!"
Militia captain Wang Erxi said with a smile, "I've got an idea."
"What idea?"
Tell me about it.
In an instant, everyone's attention turned to Wang Erxi, the militia captain.
