Chapter 1791 - 1791: 1791
Ma Huacheng was close to tears.
Damn it, what kind of allies are these?
At a time like this, even Old Man Xue won't deploy troops?
Of course, Xue Manzi quickly added, "Isn't our strategic alliance clearly written? If either party is attacked, the other must aid and retaliate! But now, you haven't been attacked; you're the one initiating the attack on others. My Xue Family Army has no reason to assist you, right?"
"But... Commander Xue, I have been attacked, haven't I? Chi Zhongshui attacked me, didn't he? He seized my territory and my troops!"
"Sigh... That's not being attacked; it's called compensation, right? In all fairness, your troops are really poorly managed; they even attempted to slaughter a village. Additionally, the Ao Family Brothers' misdeeds aren't new, either; it's also your failure to train your troops. You've paid the price, but it's a lesson for the future!"
"I... I... sigh!!!" Ma Huacheng stammered continuously, let out a heavy sigh, and said, "Alright, alright, since Commander Xue disagrees with deploying troops together, Sa Yileng also won't send troops. I'll handle the matters on my own turf myself!"
"How do you plan to handle it? Chi Zhongshui is not an easy opponent."
Xue Manzi spoke with a relaxed tone, even asking with a smile!
Ma Huacheng cursed inwardly, you old fox, not sending any troops, why care so much? How will I handle it? I'll handle it like hell!
However, new ideas began to sprout in Ma Huacheng's mind, so he said, "Although Chi Zhongshui is a tough nut, it's not impossible to take him down. I plan to gather all the single-rocket launchers, sneak out at night, and within two days, everyone will reach the designated positions and launch a night attack, executing a saturation strike on the main town of Liangjia Chong and nearby defense camps of nine towns. Under such a saturation strike, after three rounds, this trifling force of over a thousand could be paralyzed, and what's left will be at our mercy. It's just that I don't have enough single-rocket launchers now! If Sa Yileng could send 50 rocket launchers, and Commander Xue sends 100, plus my 80, then there'd be more than enough!"
"Hmm... your strategy has some merit... 230 rocket launchers firing simultaneously, with several rounds in less than two or three minutes, would definitely overburden Chi Zhongshui's People's Army."
Xue Manzi pondered for a while, finding the plan quite impressive.
Ma Huacheng felt inwardly pleased, saying, "Commander Xue, does this work then? What's your opinion?"
"Alright, I'll lend you 100 rocket launchers, each with six rounds of ammo. For any damages, you'll compensate me; as for the ammo, just procure it later and deliver it to me."
"Ah? Just lending them? Commander Xue, you're not sending any personnel?"
Ma Huacheng felt somewhat disappointed; originally, he intended to drag Xue Manzi and Sa Yileng into the matter, but Xue Manzi, the old fox, actually pulled this trick?
If he does this, probably by then, Sa Yileng, that savvy guy, will do the same, sigh...
"Yes, just lending them will do! With rocket launchers, anyone can learn to use them. You've got so many troops, are you worried about not utilizing my 100 launchers?"
"Hehe, of course, they can be used, but they need training, don't they? Wouldn't that delay time? How about Commander Xiang simply lends me a few rocket launcher operatives then? Plug and play, they're already familiar!"
