Chapter 456: The Road to Moyun Ridge
Li Zhen spent half a day sorting out all the things in Renhua County.
Next, Li Zhen summoned Long Xi, Huang Qiang, Yang Luchan, Dong Haichuan and Yang Banhou, and all of them discussed the matter of dealing with Zhao Tianbiao in the hall. Li Zhen looked at Long Xi and said in a deep voice: "Brother Long, I am not familiar with the situation in Renhua County, and I don't know the details of Moyunling, is Brother Long familiar with Moyunling?" ”
Long Xi nodded, and said solemnly: "Actually, I don't need to talk about the situation in Moyunling, Lord Admiral must know something, because Lord Admiral passed by Moyunling." The terrain of Moyunling is steep, the mountain road is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If Admiral Li wanted to attack Moyunling from the front, it would definitely not work with more than 20 soldiers under his command. Even though the soldiers under Admiral Li were all elite, due to the terrain, they could not take Moyunling. ”
Li Zhen then asked, "In addition to the frontal attack, can there be a trail to go directly to Moyunling Mountain?" ”
Long Xi glanced at Li Zhen in surprise, a smile hooked up on the corner of his mouth, and secretly said that talking to smart people is simple. He nodded and said, "Lord Admiral, there is indeed a road that can lead to the top of the mountain. ”
Li Zhen waved his hand and said, "Brother Long, please speak!" ”
At this time, not only Li Zhen was excited, but also Yang Banhou, Yang Luchan and others.
Long Xi looked complacent, and said slowly: "On the north side of Moyun Ridge, there is a stream flowing through. This stream flows down from the top of Moyunling, and almost all the places left by the stream from the top of the mountain are steep rocks, and there is no smooth road, so Zhao Tianbiao, the owner of Moyunling, is not very well defended, and only a few bandits are guarded. This situation took me half a month to find out in order to explore the situation in Moyunling. ”
Li Zhen clapped his hands and praised: "With the help of Brother Long, it will be much easier to exterminate Zhao Tianbiao in Moyunling." ”
Long Yu asked, "Do you have any thoughts on attacking Moyun Ridge?" ”
Li Zhen suddenly fell silent and fell into deep thought.
He just happened to pass by Renhua County, and he had just killed Wang Shou, and he was not familiar with Renhua County and Moyunling, so it was difficult to set a strategy for attacking Moyunling.
Li Zhen remained silent, as did the rest of the people.
In the hall, there was a sudden silence.
Five minutes later, a smile flashed in Li Zhen's eyes, and he spoke: "The attack on Moyunling mainly relies on the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion under my command and the twelve brothers under the command of Brother Long. Since there is a trail, we will follow the river to climb Moyunling. This is the direction of the main action, but there must be other arrangements to reduce Zhao Tianbiao's defense of the back mountain, and also make Zhao Tianbiao nervous, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling Zhao Tianbiao. ”
Long Xi asked curiously, "How did Admiral Li achieve this goal?" ”
Li Zhen dusted off his wrinkled robe and explained with a smile: "To achieve this goal, it is very simple, it is enough to let the bandits in the city pass the message. The more than 60 bandits staying in the county town will not have much effect, and it is likely that there will be bad things, so they will simply be put back and let the bandits inform Zhao Tianbiao, saying that we will attack Moyunling in four days. When the time comes, we will sweep Moyunling and capture Zhao Tianbiao alive. With Zhao Tianbiao's temperament, it is likely that most of the troops will be deployed on the road in the front mountain, and the defense of the back mountain will be slack, and our chances will be greater. ”
"Okay, that's a good idea."
When Long Yu heard this, he was satisfied with the plan that Li Zhen came up with.
Li Zhen looked at Huang Qiang and ordered: "All the bandits are guarded by the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion, and Huang Qiang will convey my order to let all the bandits return to Moyunling to deliver the message." ”
"Yes!"
After Huang Qiang received the order, he got up and left the hall and walked towards the place where the thieves were being held.
……
Renhua County, the gate of the county seat.
One by one, the thieves ran out of the city quickly, with a happy face.
They looked excited, they didn't expect Li Zhen to let them go. For these bandits, they were all ready to be killed after they were caught, but a big pie suddenly fell from the sky, and the thieves rushed out of the county seat regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one. Standing outside the county seat, the bandits looked back and were relieved to find that there were no soldiers chasing after them in the city.
It seems that Li Zhen really intends to let them go.
"Li Zhen is really stupid, he actually let us go."
"He is indeed very stupid, and he is really arrogant to think of attacking Moyunling with his own strength. Li Zhen only had a few dozen soldiers to take Moyunling, which was really arrogant. ”
"Anyway, we came back to life. Brothers, go back to the mountains. ”
A group of bandits chirped crookedly, very lively.
One by one, they excitedly left Renhua County and ran in the direction of Moyunling outside the city.
……
In the city, the county hall.
Li Zhen looked at Huang Qiang and asked in a deep voice, "After the thieves left the county seat, how was the situation?" ”
Huang Qiang smiled and said: "As the marshal expected, the bandits were all elated, and I am glad that the marshal did not execute them." These bandits are rushing towards Moyunling, and they will soon arrive at Moyunling. ”
Li Zhen instructed: "Closely monitor the situation in Moyunling and see what countermeasures Zhao Tianbiao has?" ”
"Yes!"
Huang Qiang left excitedly to prepare for the next battle.
……
Moyunling, in the cottage.
In the hall, Zhao Tianbiao sat directly above, and below sat Chai Tianwang and the rest of the cottage leaders. In the middle of the hall, there were bandits standing one after another, and these bandits had all run back from Huairen County. All of them were taken into the hall and waited for Zhao Tianbiao to interrogate. Zhao Tianbiao wondered how these bandits came back, and asked, "Tell me, how did you escape?" ”
Among the bandits who escaped back, a small leader stood up and said solemnly: "The owner of the village, it was Li Zhen who took the initiative to let us go. He said that he would attack Moyunling in four days, and let the owner of the village wash his neck and wait. ”
"Bastard!"
When Zhao Tianbiao heard this, he immediately became angry.
Zhao Tianbiao stood up, waved his arms, and said loudly: "Don't say that Li Zhen gave me four days to prepare, even if Li Zhen immediately led the soldiers to attack, I am not afraid, self-righteous guy." I, Moyunling, have stood in Renhua County for more than ten years, and I have never been breached, and it is useless for Li Zhen to come. ”
Chai Tianwang said: "The owner of the village, and Wang Shou as the internal response, Li Zhen will definitely die." ”
The little leader who replied said: "Back to the village master, when we arrived in Huairen County by Li Zhen's escort. Because the soldiers in the county town set up a private control card at the city gate, Li Zhen became angry with Wang Shou. Li Zhen ordered the soldiers to kill into the city, and encountered Long Xi to attack the county government, Long Zhen and Li Zhen were friends, Li Zhen helped Long Zhen, directly killed Wang Shou, and Wang Shou was killed. ”
When Zhao Tianbiao heard this, a look of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
He was able to survive Moyunling, on the one hand, because of the geographical location of Moyunling, and on the other hand, because Wang Shou revealed the news from the inside. Wang Shou was killed by Li Zhen, and Zhao Tianbiao immediately lost a big help, so Zhao Tianbiao was very jealous of Li Zhen. Zhao Tianbiao no longer hesitated, and began to dispatch the bandits in the cottage to prepare for four days later.
Without Wang Shou, he really has to prepare.
