Chapter 0118: Planning Zhujiazhuang
On the morning of this day, Zengtou City still opened the city gate on time as usual, and the flow of people from the south to the north came from several city gates, and in recent times, Zeng Tou has recruited troops all the way, integrating many forces in the green forest, although it suffered a defeat some time ago, but this does not affect the prosperity of Zengtou City. Zengtou City is like a cornucopia, absorbing the wealth of all over the world.
Zeng Lane was sitting on a rocking chair at the head of the city at this time, closing his eyes and recuperating. If you look closely, there are a few more wrinkles between your brows. It's no wonder, after all, his eldest son has just died, no matter how hard his heart is, it is impossible to let go of his feelings in such a short time.
Zeng Sheng stood next to Zeng Lane, shaking a fan for him, as if waiting for something.
Counting the days, Zeng Hu should also come back, thinking that Erlong Mountain is only a few hundred people at most, where can he stop Zeng Hu's attack. At least that's what Zeng Sheng thought.
The father and son waited left and right at the head of the city, and they didn't see it for a long time, Rao Yi couldn't help but be irritable no matter how good his temper was, and said: "It's been a few days since the agreed time, what's the matter with your second brother?" Can't even a small Erlong Mountain be captured? ”
Zeng Sheng smiled and said with relief: "The second brother may have a good relationship outside, he is adding a grandson to you." ”
Zeng joked: "Your second brother has these ideas, you still have to think about it?" ”
Looking at Zeng making a joke, Zeng Sheng touched the bridge of his nose embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "My son is still young, let's talk about it later." ”
After the teasing for a while, there was a silence, the more this happened, the more the vibrating heart hung in the air, Zeng Suo had already had an accident, he didn't want his second son to have anything to do.
In the end, because I couldn't wait, I had to go down to the city.
Zeng Lane actually has a lot of things to deal with in a day, after all, he is such a big city lord. In the evening, I saw a subordinate come to report that the second young master's men and horses had returned.
He didn't care about anything else, and before the man could finish speaking, he ran to the gate of the city to look.
I saw that the men who came back were all in rags, and all their armor was gone, and there were no horses. Zeng Lang had a bad premonition and asked, "What the hell is going on?" What about the second young master? ”
One of the men who looked like a commander came out and said with a sad face, "Master! Second Young Master, he ...... He was robbed. ”
Zeng Langgang had just lost a son, and when he heard about this catastrophe, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, shook it a few times before it stabilized, and grabbed the collar of the commander: "What's going on?" Tell me. ”
Looking at Zeng's flushed face, the commander lowered his head and said originally: "That's the case, second son, he fought with Nalu Zhishen, which one was too brute force, and the second son couldn't resist it, so he was captured." ”
"Where did the armoured horses go?" Zeng asked again.
The commander replied, "At that time, the fat monk threatened us, saying that if we didn't give him the armor and horses, he would kill the second son, and we didn't dare to take the risk to do so." ”
Zeng Lane was already in tears at this time, and said with a sad face: "What should this be? My son's life and death are uncertain now! ”
Seeing this, the people and horses next to Zeng Lang all knelt down and said in unison: "I have the great trust of the master, and I didn't take good care of the second son, and I ask the master to punish him." ”
Zeng Lang looked at the crowd and saw that they were all like this, so he no longer had anything to say, but the pain in his heart was indeed not reduced by half a point.
After returning to the city, Zeng Lane continued to work hard, he knew that he couldn't care about sadness now, because now the development of Zeng Tou City was in the ascendant, and the Nine Emperor Princes behind him were also staring at him all the time, if he slacked off, maybe he would be replaced, even if he had tens of thousands of horses, but he didn't dare to go against the court on the surface, so he could only continue to carry the burden on his body.
On Liangshan's side, Jiang Lintian is also thinking about how to develop, he knows that in two years, the Jin Kingdom will launch a war, and then it will be a beacon fire and a forest in ruins, the first thing is to accumulate strength as much as possible, otherwise it will be too late to regret everything.
Although most of the people in Liangshan are rough men, there are also many smart people, such as Wu Yong.
is not one of the few people who can see Jiang Lintian's thoughts, and naturally he has given a lot of plans for the next development.
In his opinion, in order to completely defeat Zeng Tou, it is necessary to disperse his forces, the first is to weaken his forces, and the second is to divide his allies.
Zengtou City's two biggest allies now are Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang, and Wu Yong means to start from this aspect.
Last time, I didn't know what kind of ** medicine I really used, but I let many Shandong Green Forest forces kidnap him on his chariot. Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang are a little better. But many others have defected, and Zhujiazhuang has become a hardcore ally like a brick.
It doesn't feel very realistic to use interests to win over. Jiang Lintian was not sure that he would open a higher bargaining chip than Zeng, so he had to choose the second path - deterrence by force, which was also Wu's idea.
When the attitude of Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang was still unclear, they first launched an attack on Zhujiazhuang, and came to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey. Win a battle to intimidate the other forces.
As long as Zhujiazhuang and Hujiazhuang are not tied to the ship in Zengtou City, Jiang Lintian's chances of winning will suddenly be three stories higher.
Of course, how to fight is also a problem, after all, the three brothers of the Zhu family are not only wine and meat, but also have nearly 10,000 people in their hands, and it is definitely not possible to attack strongly.
After thinking about it, I couldn't think of any good way, so in the end, I had to bend down and ask Wu Yong for advice.
Wu said with the presence of the old god: "Actually, it's not that there is no way. ”
Jiang Lintian hurriedly bent down and arched his hand and said, "I would like to hear the details of the military division, please speak quickly." ”
Wu swallowed his tea, cleared his throat, and said, "The third son of the Zhu family, Shuibo, has some resourcefulness and courage, but I can still see some of their weaknesses, as long as it takes some effort, I can break them." ”
Jiang Lintian hurriedly stepped forward and listened carefully.
Wu Yong lowered his head and whispered into Jiang Lintian's ear: "We have to do this." ”
Jiang Lintian's eyes lit up when he heard this. Shout hello!
Zeng was a little depressed during this time, not only did his eldest son die, but his second son was also missing, and there was Jiang Lintian as a fierce rival outside, and now he was more irritable in his heart.
Zeng made this person's surname Dao, and he also had a certain amount of research on Huang Lao's theory, and he had to burn incense for a period of time every day.
On this day, he happened to be offering incense, and a subordinate hurriedly came in, saying that a Taoist priest asked to see him.
Zeng Lane was upset and wanted to shirk it, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with seeing him, so he wanted to summon the Taoist priest.
But before he could give him an order, the Taoist priest came to his courtyard like a ghost. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
