Chapter 290: The Beginning of the War
Wen Zhili's letter said that they were about to make a final encirclement of the pirates. What he meant was to let Sheng Changlin defend Wonju City, and never let the pirates find any loopholes to enter the city.
There is also to let Yuan Xi take a team of men and horses to ambush on the way from Yuanzhou to Yanzhou, striving to strangle the pirates and capture the leader alive along the way. After reading the letter, Sheng Changlin handed it to Ji Fang, Ji Fang glanced at Yuan Xi and said, "Are you confident that you can complete your master's task?" ”
Yuan Xi nodded seriously and said, "Instructor, your subordinates have confidence." ”
Ji Fang sighed and said, "In this case, I will send you a team of the most elite Wen family guards, and you will definitely live up to your mission." ”
Yuan Xi hugged his fists at Ji Fang and said, "Yuan Xi understands. ”
"In addition, that team of people are all from the Wen family who have seen strong winds and waves, and many of them are your seniors. Remember to be humble and never annoy them. is the leader of the road, who has suffered back then. Ji Fang instructed.
As soon as He Luo heard this, he immediately understood why Lu Yu was able to guess the dilemma that Yuan Xi would face. Those Wen family guards are indeed elites, and they are elites, and naturally they have some tempers of their own. Facing Yuan Xi, whose age and ability are lower than his own, he is naturally proud. Surely he will not be convinced by his leadership.
As for why Wen Zhili didn't let Ji go, He Luo also understood very well. Because outsiders are always outsiders, the extremely important city of Yuanzhou City, if there is no Ji Fang in charge, Wen Zhili will not rest assured.
Thinking of this, He Luo looked at Sheng Changlin twice, and Sheng Changlin was embarrassed. He Luo smiled slightly, and then said to Ji Fang: "Instructor, I'll go with Yuan Xi." ”
"You?" Ji Fang seemed to be a little uneasy, if Yuan Xi couldn't convince that group of people, then it would be useless to follow Heluo.
Seeing that Ji Fang was not at ease, He Luo hurried to his ear and whispered, "Lu Yu's signal is in my hand. ”
Ji Fang looked at her with some surprise, and then smiled. It turned out that Lu Yu had long expected the dilemma that Yuan Xi would face, Lu Yu had led the Wen family's guards for many years, and his prestige naturally went without saying. With his signal, everything will be much easier to say.
"You go with Yuan Xi, be careful in everything." Ji Fang looked at He Luo with a serious look in his eyes.
Sheng Changlin was a little surprised when he heard Ji Fang say this: "Instructor Ji, how can you let such a little girl go to such a dangerous place?" It's too dangerous. ”
He Luo raised his chin at Sheng Changlin and said, "What's wrong with the little girl?" I haven't been by my grandfather's side for nothing all these years. ”
"You're pretty arrogant." Sheng Changlin said with a smile.
He Luo wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ji Fang, and he said solemnly: "Yuan Xi, He Luo, you guys go." ”
The two were ordered to leave, Yuan Xi walked in front and He Luo walked behind. Seeing that Yuan Xi was a little nervous, He Luo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, if they are difficult for you, I have a way." ”
Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Does Miss Heluo know how powerful that group of people are? They won't obey me. ”
He Luo didn't care, she continued: "Yuan Xi, I remember that when you were in Huzhou, you went to the prison under the Warden Office. You're not afraid that the Inspectorate is so powerful, what's so scary about these people? ”
Yuan Xi shook his head a little helplessly and said, "The inspector's office said hello in advance that time, otherwise it wouldn't have been so smooth." ”
"Anyway, don't worry. Instructor Ji sent these people to you, you are their leader, and they can't say anything even if they are not convinced. He Luo's tone was serious.
"According to the time mentioned in the letter, they are going to attack today, right?" Yuan Xi sighed.
He Luo looked in the direction of Shu and said, "It will be fine, that's the master!" ”
Shudi, because Liu Moxing deliberately lost several times, greatly increased the momentum of the pirates. At present, Shu is already within the control of these pirates, although Shu has become almost an empty city.
Because the number of people in Shu is very small, the group of pirates is also a little worried about fraud and refuses to move their center of gravity. Jian You took a group of people to the island, and because of the topographic map brought by Xun Mo, Jian You seemed to have found the right place quickly.
What he had to do this time was to burn down the granaries of the pirates, as well as their military bases. Because Liu Moxing came out to call for battle, some pirates had already gone to fight, which caused the defense on the island to be a lot weaker.
Jian You successfully found the granary, and after the fire was lit, someone shouted to put out the fire. When those people went to put out the fire, Jian You took the group of people to the room where the military secrets were hidden.
In the past two days, Jian You had already memorized the topographic map and the arming map, coupled with his perennial judgment in investigating cases, he almost quickly matched the location on the map with the actual location.
And Liu Moxing pretended to be defeated here, and was directly chased to the Fog Valley. Xiang Mutian saw that Liu Moxing had already led most of the pirates to the Fog Valley, and left with people who had been pretending to be civilians to ambush for two or three days to launch an attack, and regain control of Shudi.
The pirates over there were still chasing Liu Moxing for the desire for victory, but the island was full of fires, and the control of Shu was also taken away by Xiang Mutian.
Seeing the fire on the island, Wen Zhili stood on the shore and waved his hand, and immediately someone Yang Fan drove the boat to pick up Jian You. Because the army has come, there are not many ships left on the island.
Seeing the signals from those who went to answer them, Wen Zhili knew that the time had come. He smiled coldly at the pirates who had escaped from the island with the few ships left.
He raised his hand, only to see someone hand over an arrow with fire, and Wen Zhili took his bow and shot the arrow directly into the sail of a ship. The ship was engulfed in flames at once, and the soldiers fired rockets at the ships.
I saw that the sea was blazing for a while, and there were screams everywhere. Jian You joined the people who had come to meet them, and they fled the island from the other direction. Looking at the fire on the other side, Jian You sighed.
Seeing that all the ships were burned and the island was also in flames, Wen Zhili turned and left. When he met Jian You, he smiled mildly and said, "Lord Jian, you're doing a good job." ”
Jian You was suddenly praised by Wen Zhili, turned his head in embarrassment and said, "I didn't catch their leader." ”
Wen Zhili smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I'll help the adults catch it." ”
