Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 360: You Know Now?

Yeah, Luanshi Ridge is easy to defend and hard to attack!

Throughout the ages, countless local officials have tried to deal with the mountain bandits of Luanshi Ridge, but they all returned without success, no matter how many troops they deployed.

After a brief moment of panic, the young soldier calmed down and revealed a silly grin.

"Keep watching, go see when that woman will come!"

The man waved impatiently, but when he turned around and saw the other was still motionless, he was displeased, "Is there something else?"

"Commander, that woman, she’s the leader!"

"Pfft!"

The man was drinking wine and spewed it out upon hearing this, almost falling to the ground.

That woman is the leader? What kind of joke is this?!

"Did you see clearly?"

The commander’s gaze became sharp and coldly stared at the young soldier, ready to kill him if he misspoke a word!

"Yes, I saw it very clearly, my eyesight is the best, that leading woman is exactly the same as the one in the portrait!"

"Damn, this damn woman, I wanted to spare her, and she came here seeking death? Good, very good! Then notify everyone to prepare for defense, don’t let a single enemy soldier in!"

"Aye!"

With a series of sounds, countless armored soldiers emerged from caves all around and rushed to the mountaintop.

Looking down, indeed, a large army was seen advancing toward them from a distance.

"Humph, foolish woman!"

The commander sneered; this was more than foolishness?

It was sheer stupidity!

Bringing so few people to attack the natural barrier that is Luanshi Ridge? Hahaha...

"Prepare, this time we will make sure those people can’t return!"

"Commander, if we annihilate eight thousand troops at once, won’t it provoke a counterattack from the court?"

A young soldier thought he was asking a critical question, but the commander kicked him and cursed, "Idiot, we are mountain bandits, mountain bandits! Do you know what a mountain bandit is? A mountain bandit destroys whoever messes with us; if I don’t like someone, I hit them! The court? Ha, the court is nothing!"

"Hahaha!"

The commander’s words were so impassioned, provoking loud laughter from all around.

"Reporting to the commander, those people have pitched camp on the spot!"

Gah?

A soldier responsible for scouting enemy movements reported in, and instantly, the laughter in the hall ceased.

"Pitched camp on the spot? What does that mean?"

"Uh, it’s just what it says."

"Damn it!"

The commander cursed, then gave the soldier a kick as well.

"Commander, what should we do next?"

The soldier looked at the three men seated at the main seat; these three were all commanders in charge of training exercises in this mountainous area, they were his superiors, and everything had to be done according to their instructions.

Liu Dutong took a sip of wine, looking serious, and said in a grave tone, "The opponent has camped on the spot, clearly planning how to attack Luanshi Ridge. We only have two thousand men, and with this natural fortress, defense is not a problem, but our attack is weak, so we remain still and wait for the big fish to come to us!"

This approach is very fair, very ordinary, but very safe.

"What if the enemy never attacks?" another commander said, "We can’t just wait here idly, can we?"

"Then what do you suggest? Should we go down the mountain?" Liu Dutong frowned, "If they came with a few people at first, we could indeed capture them by going down, but who could have imagined she would bring so many people? Damn... this woman is really cunning!"

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but slap the table, clearly very angry.

"Don’t worry, if they want to reclaim their things, they have to come up the mountain. If they don’t come up, are we supposed to send it down to them? Hahaha..."

"Exactly, as soon as she comes up, everything will be easy. Come, let’s drink!"

These people felt that Long Yue’s small force was nothing, not a threat, only Liu Dutong was frowning.

He rubbed his eyelid, feeling an ominous twitch, as if something might go wrong? But what could happen? As long as they hold this key position, even tens of thousands of troops can only look on in frustration, what could go wrong?

And besides, should this be reported to the master?

He hesitated, unable to make a decision!

As the sky gradually darkened, one tent after another was set up below Luanshi Ridge.

The Cao Family army often camped outdoors, so setting up camp was as simple as eating and drinking for them. In no time, fires were lit, racks were set up, and cooking began.

Long Yue prepared some hot porridge and entered the main tent to feed her man. Somehow, staying in this simple tent, she felt excited.

In the center at the back of the tent was a large topographic map, Long Yue recognized it as the terrain of Luanshi Ridge and the surrounding hills.

Li Qingmu was standing in front of the map, chin in hand, thinking.

Long Yue came to his side, set down the porridge, and looked on.

"From above, Luanshi Ridge looks like a dumpling."

The middle bulges with many small mountain ranges on either side interwoven, resembling the ridges of a dumpling, quite an apt description.

Li Qingmu turned around, gazing deeply at Long Yue, "Perfect for wrapping dumplings."

What is meant by wrapping dumplings is a battlefield saying, to encircle the enemy in a trap and destroy them from all sides.

Once encircled in such a trap, the army either fights courageously to break out or faces complete annihilation.

In the past, Li Qingmu dealt with the Xiliang army using a similar strategy, encircling the forest on all sides and setting it ablaze, directly suffocating and burning them inside.

But that strategy only worked in enemy territory or border areas, not here at Luanshi Ridge.

A slight mistake would endanger the nearby mountains and villagers, causing smoke to fill the area, suffocating the locals.

Long Yue looked at the man beside her, "How do you plan to wrap them? The terrain here is very complex, we can’t attack upwards, and the enemy definitely won’t come down. If we keep at a standoff like this..."

Upon realizing something, Long Yue’s eyes widened.

Li Qingmu chuckled, putting an arm around his little wife, eyes tender and affectionate, "Thought of it?"

"Yes!"

"Then shall we just sit here and count stars?"

Long Yue rolled her eyes at him, this man’s thinking was really unique, but seeing his deep black eyes, it was as if they could capture a person’s soul.

Long Yue instinctively nodded, murmuring, "Alright..."

"Rustle—"

A cool breeze swept in, and after a busy day, Cao Xiao was already hungry, so he started eating early, holding a soup bowl and sipping the broth, with a big piece of pastry in his right hand, munching as he entered.

He happened to see the couple hugging affectionately, looking very much in love.

Cao Xiao felt a sourness in his nose, thinking of his Little Le’er, and got a bit anxious, "Little Yue’er, how long will we stay here?"
