Father Li was old, and after a few drinks, he went back to rest first, leaving Li An to beckon the three of them to continue drinking.

"Shiro, you said that you have a strategy to deal with water thieves, what is the clever plan?" Halfway through the wine, Ang Li asked about Xiao Yao, this was the purpose of his invitation to them.

"Then Brother Li first has to tell me the specific situation of this Julong Gang? How many people are there? How do you usually act? The more detailed, the better. Xiao Yao didn't dare to hold it up, and became serious.

"The big boss of the Julong Gang, Bajiang Long, is indeed a character, he has been operating in Poyang Lake for less than three years, and there are already six or seven hundred gangs, all of whom have a division of labor and cooperation, as little as a dozen people, and as many as a hundred and ten people, who gather and scatter to rob merchant ships on the river, because of his brother's incompetence, and most of the guards are old and weak soldiers, and they have not been able to exterminate this gang of water thieves in the past three years." Ang Lee was a little resentful.

"That is to say, guerrilla fighting is their forte, well, then the beheading of the two of them this time should be able to lure out the other water thieves, and then catch them all! What weapons do they use? Isn't it amazing? Is there cavalry? Xiao Yao had a clue.

"It's just a bunch of water bandits, how can there be cavalry! However, their weapons are powerful, and the money they have robbed in the past few years has been exchanged for all kinds of strong bows and arrows, swords, guns, swords, halberds, which are better than the weapons of our county soldiers. Ang Lee told the truth.

"And how many people can you mobilize now? How many are young and strong? Is there cavalry? Xiao Yao asked with a frown.

"There are more than 800 defenders in Xunyang County! But except for last year's old and frail, there are less than 400 people who can go to the battlefield! But there are many people who can ride horses, but there are not many horses in the guardhouse, and if you ask the people for it, you should be able to collect fifty good horses! "Ang Lee is very clear about his family background.

"The other party has more people than us, and the weapons are better than ours, so we can't go head-to-head with the Julong Gang, it seems that we have to surprise our soldiers to win." Xiao Yao was silent in thought.

"Then Shiro, what is your best plan? Say it! Hearing that Xiao Yao had been bowing his head and pondering, but had not yet said how to deal with the water thieves, Li An was a little anxious.

"Brother Li, don't worry, the first thing now is that you have to send people to pay close attention to the movements of the water thieves, you must know whether they will come to rob the Dharma Field, and if they come, how many people will come!" Xiao Yao raised his head and said, he already had an idea in his heart.

"This is no problem, we have a lot of fishermen in Xunyang County, and some of them are even related to water thieves, just look for them!" Ang Lee replied with a nod.

"The second thing, ask the people for horses, and then pick out fifty people to form cavalry, Lord Xiao is a general, the cavalry can entrust him to help train, and then this cavalry will be responsible for charging and breaking the formation!" Xiao Yao continued.

"Cavalry? Could it be that your good plan is to let these fifty cavalry rush forward, it's too nonsense! Not to mention how powerful the cavalry that has only been trained for two days can be, with only fifty horses, it is difficult to compete with the six or seven hundred fierce water thieves of the other side! Ang Lee was not satisfied with the plan.

"I didn't say that I would use cavalry to deal directly with the thieves! First of all, we tied up the group of water thieves outside the city and beheaded them, led the Bajiang Dragon to the city, and handed over the city to our master and apprentice, I have my own clever plan to make the whole scene extremely chaotic, and then take advantage of the chaos to kill the Bajiang Dragon, like Lin Taishou. Without a leader, the remaining thieves must be panicked and have no intention of fighting! At this time, the cavalry attack will definitely make them crush and flee in all directions, and you will lead the remaining hundreds of people to surround these thieves and take them in one fell swoop! Xiao Yao said the plan he had in mind in one breath.

"It's kind of doable, but the point is how do you keep them from fighting?" Ang Lee thought of the key point.

Xiao Yao smiled, asked Gao Yuan to take out the flint gun, and said to Li An: "I rely on this!" ”

"What's the use of this strange hammer? Just now you said that you killed the Barnosaurus like Lin Taishou, could it be that Lin Taishou's death really has something to do with you? Something to do with this hammer? Ang Lee suddenly reacted.

"It's called a flint musket, a weapon we built ourselves! Senior brother, let Brother Li see it. Xiao Yao ordered Gao Yuan.

I saw Gao Yuan raise his hand and shoot at a flower pot outside the house, bang! The flower pot was suddenly torn apart, and Li An jumped up in fright, pointing at the flint gun with a trembling hand.

"This, this loud noise, yes, it is the voice of Lin Taishou when he was punished by heaven! No wonder Lord Xiao said that it wasn't God's curse, it turned out that you really did it! Ang Lee's voice was still shaking.

"Brother Li, drink a glass of wine to suppress the shock! Lin Taishou is corrupt and perverts the law, and he is innocent of death, I am just doing the right thing for heaven. Now you believe that as long as the Bajiang Dragon dares to come, he will have no return! Xiao Yao handed a glass of wine to Li An.

"With this powerful weapon, of course we have a chance to win, and you want to cause chaos with this thing called a musket?" Ang Lee was the one who had seen blood, and he quickly came back to his senses in shock.

"It's hard to create chaos with muskets alone, I'm going to use gunpowder!" Xiao Yao said another name that Ang Lee had never heard of.

"Gunpowder? What is the medicine? Poison for arson? Li An asked puzzled.

"Gunpowder is an explosive drug, and you'll know what it is then. So tomorrow, Brother Li, you will send 300 soldiers to my master, and my master will teach them how to make these gunpowders, by the way, and the silver you brought back to Lin Taishou, and you will give us some to buy all kinds of materials! "Xiao Yao has actually been beating Lin Taishou for the idea of keeping those money.

"Well, after seeing this magical weapon, I have to believe you if you say something incredible! Haha, Shiro, I don't know why I believe in you so much! I have a lot of confidence in you! I'll do whatever you say! Tomorrow I will bring you both men and money at your disposal." Haha, it's painful to do things with smart people! Li An said his heart to Xiao Yao very sincerely.

"Thank you Brother Li for your trust! Rest assured, I won't let you down. Xiao Yao said confidently.

"Hahaha, I've been talking to Shiro all the time, but I've snubbed Master Zhou and Brother Gao! Come, Li gives you a drink! Ang Lee toasted the three of them.

Li An, who had another drink, looked at the three of them meaningfully, smiled and said: "But it's strange to say, it's clear that Shiro is Master Zhou's apprentice, Brother Gao's junior brother, and he is the youngest in terms of age, but my feeling is that among the three of you, Shiro is the center and the master, haha, I'm a straightforward person, forgive me, forgive me." ”

"Shiro is quick and resourceful, and it is most appropriate for him to communicate with Lord Li, and he can help Lord Li to eradicate the bandits, which is also what we want to see the most." Zhou Chao hurriedly explained.

"Brother Li is too worried, it's just that I have sharp teeth and a good mouth, so Master and Senior Brother let me be responsible for communicating and negotiating with others. As for the rest, let's wait until three days later to destroy the water thieves. Brother Li treats me sincerely, and I will treat Brother Li sincerely. Xiao Yao gave a respectful toast to Li An.

"Okay, then wait for three days, we will completely eliminate the Julong Gang, and then drink and talk, and rest as soon as we get drunk!" Ang Lee also toasted three people!
