Chapter 61 Wolf Thieves and Mercenaries

Everyone looked at Gao Zhandao after hearing this.

Gao Zhandao said in a deep voice: "General, since the dog thief Wurihai came to Beidi County, he has been domineering and blocked the sky with one hand, and has also built a cancerous gang like the Tianshun Gang and wantonly annexed other gangs. Our business in Fuguilou is getting more and more prosperous now, and sooner or later it will attract the greed of the Tianshun Gang. If they take the robbery, with our current strength in Beidi County, we can't stop it."

Tang Han also understood this and pondered for a while and said in a deep voice: "What Zhan Dao said is indeed very reasonable, and this kind of thing is very likely to happen. Once something happens to Fugui Tower, the remote water here cannot save the near fire. Therefore, we must strengthen our strength in Beidi County in order to deal with this kind of change. However, what should we do in such a way that our people can enter Beidi County without arousing other people's suspicion? What do you think of Zhan Dao?"

Gao Zhandao said: "My idea is to do it from both inside and outside. From the outside, we find ways to intercept the goods of the Tianshun Gang, and to blame other forces to divert attention. From the inside, we need to establish a secret gang in Beidi County, and the first choice is to choose the Tianshun Gang to take action as a stepping stone for us to become famous. If even the Tianshun Gang suffers a loss in our hands, no one will dare to covet the Fuguilou from now on."

Tang Han nodded, pondered for a while and asked a question: "How can we ensure that Wurihai will not dispatch troops to deal with our secret gang?"

Gao Zhandao said confidently: "General, every autumn and winter, the people of Beidi will go south to plunder money and children, otherwise they will not be able to spend the winter safely. Therefore, during this period, Wurihai will definitely transfer its troops to the border. The remaining troops in the county are only some defending soldiers who maintain basic public security, and they are unable to do anything else. Moreover, if we can create another external crisis for Wurihai, he will not dare to act rashly. When the spring of the next year and the people of Beidi retreat, it will not be so easy for Wurihai to deal with us."

Tang Han slapped the table and said in a deep voice: "Okay, this is a good idea. But what is the external threat you are referring to?"

Gao Zhandao smiled and said, "There is a team of horse thieves near Beidi County, called Wolf Thieves. Their total number is about five or six hundred, and everyone rides horses, coming and going like the wind. All members are wearing a wolf-headed mask, and the leader is called Wolf King. These people are extremely powerful and proficient in riding and shooting. They often rob passing merchants and pedestrians on the grassland and near Beidi County. If they do not resist, they only pick up goods. If they resist, they will not leave a single living mouth. So everyone is afraid of the name of Wolf Thieves. But for some reason, this wolf thieves have not appeared again in two years. Just imagine, if the wolf thieves suddenly appear and intercept the goods of the Tianshun Gang, what kind of impact will this have?"

Ba Hong said, "Wurihai must be very nervous, and he is attacked on both sides. His attention must be focused on these wolf thieves, and he has no energy to care about the affairs in the city. In addition, with Shang Zimo covering up for us, we have passed this level."

Gao Zhandao smiled and said, "Brother Ba Hong is right, that's the reason."

Ba Feng, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "But the question is where should we find this wolf thief?"

Everyone fell silent, which was indeed the biggest problem.

Tang Han understood that Gao Zhandao did not mean to seek help from a real wolf thief. If he really went to find it, it would be like a scam with a tiger. His meaning was to find a team to pretend to be a wolf thief.

Tang Han's fingers were tapping rhythmically on the table, and everyone was already familiar with his movement. This movement would appear when he was thinking quickly.

To impersonate a wolf thief, the first thing is to need a large number of war horses, and the second thing is that those who need to ride horses will be real cavalry and can fight on horseback.

Only by meeting these two conditions can we achieve the goal of borrowing the reputation of the wolf thief to attract attention.

Suddenly, Tang Han's finger stopped because he suddenly thought of a solution to this problem.

After his lord title was upgraded to Knight, in addition to the spearmen and archers that could be summoned in the barracks, the newly added troops also had two types of mercenaries that could be summoned in the Mercenary Trading Station - Mace Hammer and Light Cavalry.

According to the settings, summoning these mercenaries does not require weapons and equipment as they summon regular troops in the barracks. Mercenaries all have their own weapons and war horses.

For example, the maces and shields of the maces, the cavalry's cavalry's lances, leather armor and war horses are all provided by themselves, and Tang Han does not need additional provisions.

Moreover, the summoning ratio of mercenaries will be lower. They are not summoned at a ratio of twenty to one like regular troops, but are summoned at a ratio of ten to one.

Of course, mercenaries come for money, so their summoning costs are much more expensive than regular military branches. For example, a hammer soldier costs twenty large Han silver coins and two reputation points. A light cavalry costs for forty large Han silver coins and two reputation points.

Although it is a little expensive, it also saves a lot of trouble. Moreover, the mercenaries summoned from the system are 100% loyal to their employers. They are not like mercenaries in reality. They really work hard for money and can fight back against the employer when necessary.

The reason why Tang Han has never built a mercenary merchant station to summon mercenaries is that he has no money, but the total population is limited.

It was not until today that Gao Zhandao proposed this strategy that he remembered again.

The conditions were not ripe at that time, but the conditions were ripe at this time. In the past month, the total population of Tang Han's territory increased by about 2,000, and basically all of them were summoned by Tang Han from his mother's clan.

Of course, Tang Han's explanation to Gao Zhandao and others was that the tribesmen who were scattered in other places came to join us. After all, the gathering point set up by Tang Han was in the jungle outside the city. Gao Zhandao and others also saw these people walking out of the jungle with their own eyes.

The large increase in population and the rapid increase in the output of various resources brought about by the increase in population have given Tang Han enough conditions to summon mercenaries.

Thinking of this, Tang Han glanced at everyone and smiled confidently, "I will solve the problem of wolf thieves. I will guarantee that it will be a wolf thief who will really make the enemy scared. Occupy the way. Since this plan was proposed by you, you will take the lead and work with Ba Hong, Xingzhi and others to draw up the detailed steps of the plan and show it to me."
