Chapter 051 Preparing to Attack the Mountain
Uncle Qi on the side finally couldn't help but asked Yang Ling: "You have more than two hundred people in Qingfeng Village. The maximum number of people you can bring down the mountain to rob is fifty or sixty people. Do you want us to take fifty or sixty people deep into the village?"
And then you will catch them all in one fell swoop?"
Yang Ling smiled awkwardly: "As long as we control a few leaders, the other brothers will not resist needlessly if they don't know how many officers and soldiers are entering the mountain. The younger brother will also leave a few confidants beside the leaders. The key is
They can also help when the time comes, so there is a high chance of winning if someone is calculating without thinking."
"In the final analysis, whether the officers and soldiers can succeed or not, my son's wealth and life depend on you alone. What if you were sent by Qingfeng Village to lure us?" Wei She seemed to have grasped the key to the problem.
Yang Ling spread his hands and said, "Young Master came here at your own risk. If the Second Young Master doesn't trust you, then just chop down your sacrifice flag."
Wei Xuan and Xu Huang looked at each other, and Xu Huang understood. He stood up from his seat and sneered: "Could it be that the Fourth Master has forgotten that this is the county seat of Huo County. My postal supervisor has been ordered to go to the county. Since you sent it to the door, why don't you take it out?"
If you show some sincerity, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this door. If Wei Duyou doesn't chop you off, Akira will chop off your heads!"
As Xu Huang spoke, he reached for his big ax and made a gesture of getting ready to do it!
Facing the aggressive Xu Huang, the fourth master looked at Wei Xuan without changing his expression and his heart did not beat. Seeing this, Wei Xuan waved his hand quickly: "Gong Ming, don't be reckless, the fourth master is already very sincere when he comes.
The details will be discussed slowly. You can go down and have a rest while I discuss it with the fourth master."
Xu Huang glared at Yang Ling, the fourth master, but said again: "Supervisor, it seems that this guy doesn't have any good intentions. Why don't you go to Xiangling and ask Wang Juncheng to come with the right troops and take Huo Shan directly?"
It's been cleared up."
Wei Xuan had a stern face and pretended to be angry. Xu Huang left angrily. Yang Ling seemed to be relieved and said with a smile: "Xu, the strong man under Duyou, misunderstood Xiao. Xiao is just a commoner for himself and his family."
I would never dare to murder the Superintendent if my family's life is only small."
Wei Xuan nodded: "You are the most familiar with Huo Shan, the fourth master, so let's talk about your plan in detail."
Yang Ling knew that it was time for him to provide some useful information at this time, so he raised his hands to Wei Xuan and said: "This Qingfeng Village is usually patrolled by me and the third master, so I can help supervise the postage paintings at the sentry position in Qingfeng Village.
Come out, go up the mountain and wait for me to deceive the people I trust best. If it doesn’t work, just kill them directly. But at least we are brothers. I still hope that the governor can kill less people, so I will kill as many people as possible!"
When Wei She heard that Yang Ling was familiar with the sentries of Qingfeng Village, he quickly asked him to get charcoal and asked him to draw the topography of Qingfeng Village on the spot. Yang Lin did not hesitate and immediately drew the entire topography of Qingfeng Village and all the checkpoints on the way up the mountain.
came out, and at the same time explained the layout of the checkpoints to Wei Xuan and others. Wei Xuan, Wei She and others were also surprised when they saw this topographic map. It would be much easier to enter Huoshan with the topographic map.
After repeated discussions, the two parties finally agreed that Yang Ling would lead people down the mountain to plunder five days later, and Wei Xuan and his people would pretend to be a caravan transporting food and pass by Qingfeng Village. Wei Xuan's people killed these bandits, and then followed Yang Ling up the mountain to go deep into Qingfeng Village to fight for the first enemy.
He controlled several heads of Qingfeng Village at one time.
After Yang Ling left, Wei She still didn't want Wei Xuan to take risks. Wei Xuan laughed and said: "Uncle Qi, in the face of strength, there is no way to escape conspiracy. There are only so many people in Qingfeng Village, and Yang Ling must at least bring him with him when he comes down to rob."
There are thirty or forty people. Even if we don't kill them all, at least the combat effectiveness of Qingfeng Village has been reduced by this much.
Well, since Yang Ling can let us hide people in grain trucks to ambush bandits coming down the mountain, we can also arrange more people on grain trucks. Forty people can't deal with 150 or 60 bandits, but ninety people can always do it.
Yes, even if there is an ambush, we can just retreat when the time comes. In addition, the county soldiers can already drive to the vicinity in the past two days in the name of suppressing the bandits. By then, after we go up the mountain, the county soldiers can follow us after dark.
On the contrary, Yang Ling's ability to accurately find Baihutang shows that their intelligence in the city is not simple. If the county soldiers and county soldiers are dispatched, the people in Qingfeng Village will definitely flee, and it is impossible for so many soldiers and horses to stay at the foot of Huoshan Mountain for a long time."
Seeing Wei She, he was still hesitant, but Wei Xuan encouraged him: "The Eucommia ulmoides can block a dozen people alone, and Xu Huang can defeat a hundred people! Even if they can't annihilate all the bandits with them by my side, there is still no problem in protecting me!"
Even if Qingfeng Village can estimate the time when the county soldiers will arrive, it is
You don’t know the fighting power of us. It’s better if they don’t take precautions then. Even if they are prepared, we can just kill them by force. In addition, let the people from Baihu Hall bring all the bows and arrows they got in Xiangling last time, and then ask the county soldiers to
Select fifty archers to give them a surprise."
Seeing that Wei Xuan had made up his mind, Wei She said, "Then go to the county government office and borrow some armor, so that if things fail, you can still escape down the mountain smoothly."
"If the Fourth Master is not sincere, we will be alerted by such preparations. The only thing we can do is to cheat on the grain truck. Yang Ling asked us to hide people on the truck, of course we have to hide, and we only hide people without food.
However, the people who resisted and killed the bandits were not the people hiding in the grain carts, but the cavalry. The cavalry rushing to the scene to kill the bandits could also ensure that no one among them would escape!
If Yang Ling still insists on checking the grain truck after controlling the bandits, we will change the planting plan on the spot and directly send county soldiers to attack! If he does not check the grain truck, we will leave the horses and transport the county soldiers in the distance to the mountain as soon as possible
Come follow us."
"What if Qingfeng Village successfully contacted the other four Shantou bandits during this period?" Wei She raised another possibility.
Wei Xuan was stunned. It seemed that if he could successfully bring more than ninety people into Qingfeng Village, then Qingfeng Village would definitely be wiped out. Forty knights and fifty archers would deal with one hundred and five bandits.
There is no such thing as being overturned.
But if Huoshan's five forces gather together, then he will not have to face one hundred, fifty or sixty people, but nearly four hundred people!
If we are on terrain familiar to Xu Huang and others or in open plains, we still have a chance of winning. However, if the bandits rely on the terrain to ambush us, although we may persist until the county soldiers arrive, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties. These belong to his Wei family.
Private soldiers, I can’t bear to lose even one of them!
Seeing that Wei Xuan was silent, Wei She continued: "Although the people from Baihutang can sneak into the mountain quietly, Yang Ling can come and go freely in Huo County. Their informants in Huo County will also notify the mountain of the situation in time."
"Then let's plot!" Wei Xuan sighed.
"Conspiracy?"
"Well, Huoshan County will be closed from now on. No entry or exit will be allowed for three days. In addition, all the cavalry will be sent out to closely monitor the roads going down the mountain. The county soldiers and county soldiers will be hiding day and night, quietly entering the mountain and blocking all the roads going down the mountain.
The rest will be carried out according to the plan discussed with Yang Ling."
"As planned?" Sanitation asked a little uncertainly.
"Now that Yang Ling has come to our door, no matter whether it is true or not, we can always let him take us into the mountain. By the way, Uncle Qi has to trouble you to send a Wei family member that Wang Juncheng is familiar with to Xiangling, and ask him to send another three hundred
When people come to Huoshan, they must keep it secret while marching!"
"you mean?"
"The county soldiers are unreliable and can only be placed on the periphery for monitoring. The three hundred county soldiers cannot be easily mobilized because someone will definitely be watching. However, a small number of people exploring the way around Huoshan should not panic the bandits. From Xiangling
The dispatched county soldiers are the main force in suppressing the bandits! The archers hidden in the vehicles must also come out from the county soldiers."
Wei She finally understood Wei Xuan's plan and hurriedly dispatched three hundred county soldiers from Xiangling to prevent the bandits from the other four mountain villages from gathering in Qingfeng Village. If Qingfeng Village really united all the bandits on Huoshan Mountain, then three hundred
The county soldiers, 600 county soldiers, and everyone in the Wei family can surround Qingfeng Village with great fanfare. In this way, a thousand people will not need any strategy to deal with the 400 bandits. They can just attack by force.
After this was decided, Wei Xuan went directly to visit the county magistrate and county captain of Huo County. These two were similar to the two in Yang County. Although their rank was higher than that of Xuanyuan, they were also afraid of the identity of the children of the Wei family, so they asked to be dismissed.
After keeping silent and resigning, Wei Xuanzheng was not polite when they needed him, so he told the two of his plan to lead the county soldiers and county soldiers into the mountains to suppress the bandits, hoping that they would cooperate closely.
Upon hearing this, the two of them asked for orders. Wei Xuan just asked the county magistrate to close the city gates, arrest suspicious people in the city, and cut off the connection between the county and Huoshan.
Standby.
Wei Xuan didn't believe these two people, but if they were rejected thousands of miles away, or if one of the two people directly informed the bandits, most of them would have escaped.
The two of them were naturally overjoyed when they heard that they could participate in the suppression of bandits without having to confront them head-on, especially the county magistrate. After the incident in Xiangling, he had been in fear all day long, fearing that one day his head would be cut off and hung on the city gate.
Now that Wei Xuan has taken on the task of suppressing bandits, he welcomes it, so he is also very active in the tasks assigned by Wei Xuan, triggering all the government officials to start frequent patrols in the city. His idea is that if Wei Xuan leads the county soldiers and county soldiers with great fanfare,
If the army successfully suppresses the bandits, then there will be peace in Huo County. If Wei Xuan also fails, the prefecture and the court cannot blame him too much. After all, there are only 300 county soldiers in Huo County, so it is understandable that the bandits in Huo County can't do anything.
Of course, like Yang Ling, they believed that Wei Xuan had about twenty followers, and if he really wanted to suppress the bandits, he would still have to rely on 300 county soldiers.
Although Wei Xuan was very confident in the military power of Xu Huang, Du Zhong and others, he still tended to be conservative when making plans. If he could successfully sneak into Qingfeng Village, or the bandits would definitely be wiped out, the only thing left was when the county soldiers would
How many casualties will our side need to pay if the support can be in place?
