However, Ma Chao wasn't teaching the Western Liang soldiers, but Bai Feng's Bing Province Wolf Cavalry.
The Bing Province Wolf Cavalry was clearly more suitable for this task than the Eighteen Steeds of Yanyun and the Black Armor Cavalry.
They were fast enough.
Once the Qiang people were lured out, their defenses would be extremely weak.
This was the best opportunity for the Bing Province Wolf Cavalry to break through.
Therefore, they had to be fast.
Yue Ji was very cunning. If Yue Ji realized something was wrong and strengthened the defenses, they would be in trouble.
Therefore, every second counted.
The Bing Province Wolf Cavalry's learning ability was astonishing.
Their arm strength was also far superior to ordinary people.
After selecting the five hundred best archers, they began to practice repeatedly.
In the beginning, it was very difficult to draw the bow.
This bow required at least three times more effort than the bowstring he usually used to draw.
Three times, that was not a small number.
Even if an ox were to pull the string, it might not be able to draw the bow perfectly.
This was the only drawback of the bow. It was not suitable.
…
Just as Bai Feng and the others were preparing to deal with the Qiang people …
Inside Fan City …
"Wei Emperor, we should take advantage of this opportunity to attack."
"That's right, Wei Emperor. If Liu Bei and Sun Quan catch a breather, we won't be able to attack the city quickly."
"Wei Emperor, I don't think we should rely on grenades."
Cao Cao had just taken Fancheng and was about to hold a court meeting with all the officials who had come with him, when he heard a lot of discontent.
There were only two kinds of voices.
One was for Cao Cao to attack as soon as possible and not give Sun Liu Army a chance to catch a breather.
On the other hand, they were resisting the grenades.
Although they thought grenades were excellent, they weren't good things.
With grenades, attacking the city would be easier, but it would also cause the entire army to slack off.
Once the soldiers relied on grenades, their physical fitness would be greatly reduced.
This was because they would think that they didn't need to train at all.
If they encountered a problem, they could just throw a grenade over and solve it.
Moreover, although Ma Jun's speed at making grenades was slow, it was enough.
Because one grenade was enough to destroy the world!
However, Cao Cao was also thinking about this point.
In the end, Cao Cao decided not to use grenades at the start.
Unless they couldn't take the city for a long time, they would consider using grenades.
Otherwise, it would be a huge mistake for the soldiers' morale and training.
If his soldiers couldn't survive without grenades, what if the enemy also invented grenades?
How could they win the battle if their bodies?
What's more, there would be many times when they would attack cities in the south. These grenades wouldn't be enough.
Therefore, this thing could only be used as a last resort and absolutely could not be abused.
Cao accepted's suggestion.
However, Cao Cao rejected all of the suggestions to send troops.
Send troops?
Send what?
Even if they sent troops quickly, what was the difference between sending troops later?
Liu Bei and Sun Quan were already on high alert.
If they attacked at this time, they would definitely be met with a desperate resistance.
Rather than that, why not let Liu Bei and the others play by themselves?
They could also take advantage of this time to recuperate and slowly stabilize the city they conquered.
Liu Bei and the others wouldn't be tense for long.
Wouldn't it be better to wait until they relaxed and attack in one go?
This was not something that Cao Cao realized. It was Bai Feng's idea.
The more tense the enemy was, the harder it would be for them to fight.
Wait for a while and let them lose their tension.
If they attacked at that time, they would definitely be tired.
Wouldn't it be better to let them collapse themselves?
This principle was perfectly explained in the current Sun-Liu Alliance.
The Sun-Liu Alliance was basically in a state of high tension.
If they attacked now, wouldn't they be using their worst state to attack the enemy's best state?
Even if they could win, it wouldn't do.
How much would they lose?
Even if they used grenades to break through the city walls, they would still have to fight hand-to-hand.
At that time, they could use their geographical advantage to continue resisting Cao Cao.
In that case, even if they could take down these cities, it would definitely consume a lot of manpower and resources.
Moreover, there were still roads and other things that Cao Cao needed to improve.
During this time, they had to tidy up and rest in Fan City.
"All of you can leave. Jia Xu, stay!"
Cao Cao waved his hand and dismissed all the officials and generals who tried to persuade Cao Cao to send troops as soon as possible.
Seeing this, they could only sigh faintly and leave silently.
They knew very well that once Cao Cao made a decision, it wouldn't be so easy to change it.
This was something that couldn't be helped.
Jia Xu came in front of Cao Cao in confusion and cupped his hands.
"What orders does Wei Emperor have?"
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said,
"In this camp, the most reliable and reliable person I trust is you, Wen He."
"There is one thing that I need you to keep an eye on."
Jia Xu was stunned.
"Please tell me, Wei Emperor. I will do my best."
Cao Cao said in a low voice,
"We'll be resting in Fan City for a long time."
"Other than me, no one else knows where the grenades are stored."
"I want you to collect all the grenades from the soldiers and store them in a specific location."
"Other than you, no one else can know of this location."
Jia Xu was stunned.
"Wei Emperor, why do you want to do this?"
"If the Sun Liu Army counterattacks without grenades, our chances of victory will be greatly reduced."
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.
"Are you saying that without grenades, you won't even know how to fight?"
"Before we send out the next time, we must do this properly."
"Before we left, Sir said that the grenades must not be leaked."
"That Zhuge Liang is so smart. What do you think will happen if he gets a sample of the grenades?"
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Jia Xu was enlightened.
"Wei Emperor is right. This subject will do it immediately."
This matter couldn't be allowed for the slightest bit of carelessness.
If Zhuge Liang got his hands on the grenade manufacturing method, it would be extremely dangerous.
If the Sun Liu Army also got their hands on grenades, even if their power was halved, it would still be extremely dangerous!
This kind of thing was useful, but if it was used against him, even steel armor wouldn't be able to defend against it!
Therefore, Jia Xu didn't dare to be careless.
