Chapter 79 Poisoning a Fire
A quarter of an hour later, a member of the Jinfan thief came out of the horse farm. He came to Liu Qi and said, "The guardrails around the horse farm are extremely strong, and the cavalry can't rush away. There are still a thousand soldiers and horses in the horse farm. There are 300 soldiers and horses gathered at the gate of the horse farm. Other soldiers and horses are scattered around the horse farm. There are at least 4,000 to 5,000 horses in captivity in the horse farm, but they are not equipped with saddles and reins. If the horses are panicked after entering the horse farm, we won't have time to subdue them at all.
After listening carefully, Liu Qi took a piece of brocade from his body and handed it to him, "You draw the internal situation of the horse farm on it. It's better to draw it in more detail."
The members of the Jinfan thief immediately drew the situation in the horse farm, and even marked how many people were there anywhere. What Liu Qi pays most attention to is the grain and grass warehouse in the horse farm, which is specially built for raising horses to store the grain and grass for horses.
Another place that makes Liu Qi pay attention is several houses in the horse farm. Guarding the horse farm is a long-term job. Dubert, who guards the horse farm, intended to build a basic house as a military camp in the horse farm.
Liu Qi looked at Gan Ning. For Gan Ning, who knows most about the above signs, he still needs to explain. Gan Ning pointed to the guardrail on the brocade and said, "This guardrail is full of traps. One person can turn it over. It's impossible for so many of us to go in through the wall.
Wang Yi nodded, and Liu Qi was also deeply convinced. The guardrail is not low and is extremely strong. It is not easy for a person to sneak in and be found, but it is impossible for all 800 people to enter through this method. Moreover, the soldiers and horses in the horse farm are relatively scattered and the easiest to be exposed.
Gan Ning pointed to the gate of the horse farm and said, "The gate is the only way to enter the horse farm. Although there are only 300 people, there are a large number of military crossbows on both sides of the horse farm. If we attack, we will definitely be killed and injured."
Liu Qi nodded again and the narrow gate of the racecourse could only accommodate three horses walking side by side, which was not suitable for the cavalry to charge. In addition, the crossbow of the nemesis with cavalry will be killed and injured even if the horse farm is captured.
Gan Ning pointed to the innermost house of the horse farm and said, "This should be the place where the saddle is stored, but I'm not sure if I want to see it again."
After that, Gan Ning explained the other marks in detail. After Liu Qiqi and others suddenly realized that even if this picture falls into the hands of others, others can't understand it. Liu Qi has secretly decided to let his intelligence department do the same after going back.
After Gan Ning finished speaking, Liu Qi looked at the two: "I'm afraid Uncle Du will not come back today. That is to say, we must take the horse farm and leave today. What can you do?
Wang Yi said, "This horse farm doesn't seem to be easy to be captured, but if you charge with the flying tiger guard as the front, you should be able to rush in. As long as you rush in, everything will be easy. The open terrain in the horse farm is the most conducive to the cavalry charge."
Liu Qi shook his head and said, "There are too many casualties. Now the remaining eight hundred cavalrymen have all survived in the army. They are absolutely the elites of the elites that cannot be wasted at will. Although it is the fastest way to directly capture the horse farm, Liu Qi will not do so unless he has to.
Liu Qi looked at Gan Ning and saw Gan Ning shaking his head. Liu Qi pointed to the picture and said, "Take one person from among the soldiers to sneak into the horse farm and set fire. Grain and grass is the top priority of the horse farm. Once there is a fire, there will be chaos in the horse farm. We have a opportunity to take advantage of it. Another person is sent to poison their meals, which can also reduce our resistance.
Gan Ning, Wang Yi explained that Liu Qi has been very different from before since the last sneak attack on Sun He. In the past, he would tell his ideas to see if it was feasible, but now he does give direct orders. It seems that Liu Qi is more like a lord, with dignity and determination.
Liu Qi ignored the two and then asked, "What poison do you have?"
Wang Yi, Gan Ning shook his head. If Gan Ning had brought poison before, he might have brought poison, but he hasn't brought poison since he followed Liu Qi.
Liu Qi said helplessly, "You don't need to poison people, as long as it works."
Gan Ning and Wang Yi's eyes lit up and said, "The soldiers all have Papin on their bodies. I don't know if it's okay?"
Liu Qi wondered, "Bao?" Naturally, he has heard of it. After eating it, it can make people feel weak and diarrhea.
Gan Ning thought that Liu Qi didn't know how to explain: "The horses don't have good food and grass outside, and the soldiers have tofu. Feeding a small amount of pea to the horse at regular intervals can increase the horse's appetite. But eating too much will make the horses unable to walk, and it's the same for people to eat.
Liu Qi nodded and said, "Put all the soldiers' beans together and send people to sneak into the horse farm and put them in their meals."
Gan Ning immediately went down to find the two and took them to Liu Qi and said, "Son, these two people should be good at stealing before." When the two saw Liu Qi, they hurriedly saluted and said, "Mr. Son."
Liu Qi looked at the two people. One of them was the person who had just sneaked into the horse farm to draw pictures, but Liu Qi had no impression, but since Gan Ning said it, it should not be bad. Liu Qi said to the person who drew the picture just now: "You sneak into the horse farm again and light the food and grass in the horse farm. Remember not to leave a trace."
"No." After saying that, he went to the horse farm.
Liu Qi looked at another person: "You sneak into the horse farm and put these peas in their meals and don't let them find out."
"Don't worry, prince." After saying that, he took over Badou and thought about going to the horse farm. Before he came, Gan Ning had told him about the situation in the horse farm.
After the two left, Liu Qi looked at Gan Ning and Wang Yi and said, "Let the soldiers have a full meal and wait for the situation in the horse farm."
Gan Ning nodded and went to order.
..................
In a stable in the horse farm, several people are whipping a horse. The horse was covered with whip marks all over its body, and even some blood was leached from the whip marks from time to time.
Whip marks appeared on the horse's back, but the horse did not react at all. He looked up at several people with sarcasm and stubbornness in his eyes.
This horse is a wild horse, but somehow it appeared here. It took a thousand people to catch the horse back. The horse was pure white without any color. When Uncle Du saw it, he was overjoyed. If he could give this horse to Sun Ce, his status in Sun Ce's heart would suddenly rise.
But none of the horse tamen in the horse farm could tame it, so he had no choice but to hope that the horse could give in in a cruel way.
"You are not human at all. If the general hadn't said that he would dedicate you to the master, he would have killed you and ate meat."
"Well, I've never seen such a stubborn horse. It's really asking for trouble."
"That's right, if it's for the lord, if something happens, we can't escape, we'd better tame him earlier."
