Chapter 339 Waiting for the opportunity
The next morning, Yang Tao obtained the portrait of Dai Feng from Zhou Tai, and then parted with him and took his men to Shuangchi Mountain east of Chaohu Lake to meet Dai Feng for a while.
This time, I went to find out the strength of Dai Feng and others. As for killing Dai Feng, Yang Tao did not have much hope. It is definitely not easy for a person who can almost do a second-rate historical general like Zhou Tai. Even though Dai Feng is not strong, he still has more than 100,000 soldiers and the thieves' territory is in the mountains and forests. It is too unlikely to kill Dai Feng among so many soldiers.
Although Yang Tao knew that the possibility of successful fight with Dai Feng this time was relatively small, Yang Tao still planned to go there for a while. If he really couldn't defeat him, he could only lead the army to wipe out them in the future.
Yang Tao led his men and horses all the way, but Zhou Tai did not go north to return to his water camp. Instead, he entered Lujiang County in the southwest and prepared to go to Pengze Lake to invite his friends to help. As for Yang Tao, Zhou Tai, who had fought with Dai Feng, did not think that Yang Tao could really kill Dai Feng.
Just as Yang Tao and Zhou Tai were walking in two directions with their men, the tens of thousands of men who were not far away from them were not following Yang Tao, but rushed towards the direction where Zhou Tai left.
Yesterday, the battle between Yang Tao, Zhou Tai and others and the water thieves fell into the eyes of Tiangu, the president of the World Guild. He was shocked by the strength of Yang Tao's men, especially the famous general Gao Shun. Tiangu knew that Gao Shun had also seen a lot of information about Jianghe, because he had not been in the game for a long time and had not experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Tiangu did not have a very specific understanding of the strength of the famous generals. Even though there were many battle videos of famous generals on the forum, they did not directly see it. The sword light that Gao Shun slashed yesterday made Tiangu sweat all over, and he felt a little depressed in his heart, and he had a little desire for the famous generals.
With the strength of the sword to the World Guild, Zhou Tai's identity was found in one day. When he learned that this person was Zhou Tai, a famous general of the Eastern Wu in history, even Tiangu, who had always been calm, could not remain calm. For Tiangu, who was determined to control Yangzhou, famous naval generals were much more important than other famous generals. When Yang Tao and Zhou Tai were in contact, Tiangu wanted to rush forward and force others to force himself to calm down.
Tian Gu thought Zhou Tai would be subdued by Yang Tao, but unexpectedly, Zhou Tai was separated from Yang Tao. When he saw the opportunity, Tian Gu naturally didn't want to miss it, so he followed Zhou Tai with his men.
Yang Tao, who was looking for Dai Feng's bad luck all the way east, had no idea that someone had set up Zhou Tai's idea. However, even if Yang Tao knew about it, he had no time to pay attention to these things because he was targeted by a thief.
Yang Tao and others who entered Jiujiang County were not far away, and a team of thousands of water thieves appeared behind them. Perhaps they knew that Yang Tao and others were strong and difficult to get out of their hands. The thousands of water thieves were just following them far behind, and seemed to have no intention of taking action.
Originally, Yang Tao would not have noticed that there would be such a soldier behind him, but because Yang Tao had more than 1,000 soldiers, no more or less, on the territory of the bandits around Chaohu, Yang Tao had to act carefully, so he sent a lot of sentry to expand the scope of the investigation a lot, and then discovered the thief who was following several kilometers behind him.
It is really not at ease to know that there are water pirates and soldiers following him. Yang Tao wants to deal with this water pirate, but this water pirate is very slippery. As long as Yang Tao brings people back, the water pirate will board the ship and enter Chaohu Lake. If it is a land battle, Yang Tao will not be afraid of the people around him. If he wants to fight with thousands of water pirates on the lake, he will probably be beaten up by the water pirates in one fell swoop. Yang Tao can only give up and give up the one behind him.
"If you continue to be monitored like this, not only will you not be able to fight Dai Feng, but you may also attract the army of the water thieves. With only a thousand soldiers around you, it will be difficult to resist the attacks of the water thieves. You must try to get rid of the water thieves' tracking." Yang Tao, who was a little irritated by the water thieves following behind, thought anxiously in his heart.
After discussing with Gao Shun, Han Heng and others, the team of thousands of people was divided into three parts. Yang Tao, Gao Shun and Han Heng each led a team of people to join Liangcrape Mountain.
The team, which originally had only more than one thousand people, is now divided into three parts, with only three or four hundred people in each part, and the target has become smaller. Yang Tao and others are walking through the mountains again. Among the generals, there are some general skills that improve speed. The famous general skills quickly throw off the tail behind him.
A few days later, Yang Tao successfully brought three or four hundred people to the vicinity of Liangcha Mountain.
Liangcha Mountain is located around the outlet on the east side of Chaohu Lake. The water in Chaohu Lake forms a river to the south. Liangcha Mountain is actually connected to four peaks, facing each other. Among the four peaks, Chaohu Lake water passes by. One side close to the river is relatively vertical, and the side facing away from the river is a gentle slope covered with trees. From a distance, it looks like two huge crab claws spreading towards the sky.
When he arrived twenty or thirty kilometers away from the four peaks, Yang Tao lurked.
This is the place where pirates gather. Through the exploration of these days, no less than 150,000 pirates have gathered around these four peaks. There are more than 30 pirate camps of different sizes, and there are still many pirate soldiers and horses around.
Among the water thieves, most of the intermediate ordinary soldiers account for the strength, with more than 100,000 people. Even the generals have three or four hundred. Although most of them are junior and intermediate generals, there are also some special-level generals found among them. As for whether there are famous generals Yang Tao, I am not sure.
These pirates gathered together, and a small number of scribes appeared. Although the number was not large, only 10 or 20 people were only, Yang Tao did not dare to go too deep into it to investigate the situation of the pirates.
Yang Tao is not afraid of being discovered by the thieves. With the strength of the three or four hundred soldiers around him, even if he can't beat it, it's still easy to escape. The strength of the thieves who come to the land will be weaker. Yang Tao wants to leave with his men, but these thieves can't stop them.
Yang Tao was just worried that once the thieves were discovered, it would be difficult for Yang Tao to lead people to attack unexpectedly, let alone kill Dai Feng.
After Yang Tao's troops arrived, the troops led by Gao Shun and Han Heng also came to the vicinity. In order to reduce the target and reduce the chance of being discovered, three three or four hundred soldiers were scattered in three mountains and forests and hid, quietly waiting for the opportunity to take action.
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and Yang Tao and others lurked around but never found any favorable opportunity. However, the thieves gathered more and more, and now they have reached more than 200,000 people.
Although Dai Feng's location has been clearly found, it is on the top of one of the four peaks, surrounded by more than 200,000 pirate soldiers and horses. With the number of soldiers and horses of Yang Tao and others, it is not possible to reach the top of the mountain, but it is not a solution to keep waiting like this.
Just when Yang Tao was anxious, the opportunity finally appeared.
