Planning for Yangju Mountain
After listening to Liu Xie's words, Wu Yong couldn't help but be puzzled, no matter how intelligent he was. He cupped his hands to Liu Xie and said," May I ask, my lord, who is Zhuge Liang? What is Longzhong Dui?"”
Liu Xie looked embarrassed. He accidentally said something that had never happened before, so he could only vaguely say," Kong Ming is a genius. In ancient times, he said something for a duke in Longzhong, which helped him establish a foothold in the world.”
"Oh?" Even though Wu Yong was well-read, he didn't know who this Kong Ming was. Seeing Liu Xie's evasive gaze, he immediately stopped asking.
" Well, sir," Liu Xie changed the topic," what should we do now?"”
Wu Yong stroked his beard and smiled." My lord, since we've already decided on the general direction, I'm sure you already have an idea of what to do next!”
" Haha," Liu Xie also laughed." As a strategist, it's not good to be too smart.”
Wu Yong looked at the smile in Liu Xie's eyes and knew that the latter was joking. He immediately replied," But I think the Lord wants me to be as smart as possible!”
" Yes," Liu Xie immediately replied." However, your plan is much better than mine, so I'll tell you what I think first."”
"I'm willing to hear the details."
" Mm." Liu Xie organized his words in his mind and said slowly," What we need to do now is to expand our military strength to prepare for the invasion of Bing Province in the future. Therefore," Liu Xie took out a map, which drew the distribution of some large and small forces near Coiling Dragon Mountain. He pointed at one of the forces and said," Our first step is to take down Yangju Mountain and recruit the bandits for our own use. Then, we will slowly expand our influence."”
Liu Xie saw that Wu Yong was deep in thought while looking at the map, so he immediately looked at him with a questioning gaze." What do you think, sir?”
Wu Yong shifted his gaze away from the map and said," My lord's idea is not bad. It's not bad to attack Yangju Mountain first, but…"
"But what?"
"My lord, have you ever thought about why there are so many mountain bandits in Hanoi County, Hedong County, and Bing Province's Shangdang County?”
"Are they all remnants of the Yellow Turban Army?"
" Yes." Wu Yong waved his feather fan and pointed to a large area west of Zhi County." This is the northern part of Hanoi County, the border with Shangdang. The Yellow Turban Army here is the White Wave Army led by Yang Feng.”
Then, he moved his finger and circled around Zhi County, pointing to the east." This is the border between Hedong and Shangdang. The Black Mountain Army led by Zhang Yan is here.”
"If we want to take in the large number of bandits here, a confrontation with these two forces is inevitable. Therefore, we need to have enough strength to match them before they can react.”
"Sir, what you mean is that we have to preserve our strength to effectively attack the enemy. We have to be fast!”
" That's right." Wu Yong gave Liu Xie an appreciative look. At the same time, he couldn't help but marvel at the new term that Liu Xie had created. What effective strength and effective attack? It was quite vivid.
"My lord, I have a plan, but it requires the participation of a brave general.”
" Haha," Liu Xie couldn't help but laugh when he heard this." Mr. Keeper, although I don't have many troops under me, I have many fierce generals. Yue Yingxiang, Luo Gonggong, and Zhang Wenyuan are all generals who have fought on the battlefield.”
"If that's the case, then this plan will work!" Wu Yong listened to Liu Xie's introduction and was overjoyed. Then, he told Liu Xie the specific plan.
………
The next morning.
At the foot of Yangju Mountain, a long caravan meandered down the mountain. Several merchants rode at the front, followed by strong men who looked like family guests. The carriages were filled with sacks as if they were filled with food. The crisp sound of horse bells resounded through the mountains.
As the convoy moved forward, several figures shuttling through the forest carefully looked around before disappearing into the dense forest.
Within the Yangju Mountain village.
"What is it?" The one-eyed man was unhappy that his mood had been disturbed. He looked at the person with a fierce expression and said impatiently.
"Reporting to the bandit chief, there's a convoy coming down the mountain. There are about thirty to forty people. Judging from their goods, they should be food.”
"Thirty to forty people?" The one-eyed man said," Are you sure they're not soldiers?”
"Reporting to bandit chief, our brothers in Zhi County said that there were no movements of the army, so they are definitely not soldiers.”The man patted his chest and promised.
"Alright, then Third Brother will go and kill everyone and bring all the food up the mountain.”
"Yes." " Yes!" That person replied. He then reluctantly looked away from the woman and cupped his fists to look for the third bandit chief.
"Haha, after this robbery, we can live a few more days of carefree life.”The bandit chief laughed loudly.
………
" Brothers." The fierce-looking and fierce-looking Third Bandit Chief had already mounted his horse. He said to the group of nearly a hundred people behind him," The fat sheep at the foot of the mountain is here. Brothers, follow me to snatch the food!"”
"Oh, oh, oh!" The bandits behind Third Bandit Chief Shi Feng Dao all cried out," Food! Food!"
"Brothers, kill them!"
Shi Fengdao took the lead and rushed down the mountain. The bandits quickly followed.
………
At the foot of the mountain, Luo Cheng, who was dressed as a merchant, rode in front and asked one of them," Is the lord ready?”
" It's ready," the man replied." It's all set up. We're just waiting for the fish to take the bait.”
" That's good." Luo Cheng nodded calmly and continued to walk forward as if he knew nothing.
"Kill!" Suddenly, a loud roar broke the silence. More than a hundred bandits directly surrounded Luo Cheng and the others with large knives or spears in their hands. Shi Fengdao rode out leisurely on his horse under the protection of the crowd.
Shi Fengdao's muscles trembled and he said fiercely," Put down the goods and don't kill. We only want money, not killing."”
At this moment, a shrewd merchant dressed as a soldier sent by Liu Xie walked forward and secretly nodded at Luo Cheng. Luo Cheng understood and rode his horse forward with the soldier." Leader, we are just doing business. You should at least leave some for us. In this chaotic world, it is not easy for everyone.”
"It's not easy for you guys, but is it easy for me?”Shi Fengdao's eyes widened." It's getting harder and harder for me to rob people. Who has ever pitied me!”
" That's not what we meant." The soldier was still speaking when Luo Cheng had already slowly rode his horse to the position behind the Wind Blade.
"What do you mean?"
"We want to kill you!”With a loud sound, a dragon-like spear shadow directly pierced through Shi Fengdao's back!
