Article 314 Cai Dao's decision
The situation of the brothers who broke into Taihang Village in advance is not good!
After thinking about all kinds of possibilities, Cai Dao called Hua Xuanqi and instructed: "Dahua, you immediately send someone to inform the brothers in Taihang Village, all the brothers who have explored the residence of Han Tian and Song Yuhu should withdraw!" ”
"No!" Hua Xianqi agreed, and just as he was about to leave, Cai Dao stopped him again.
This assassination operation was generally not successful, and it was not only helpless but harmful to Cai Dao's plan to exterminate Taihang Village in the future.
This time, it was the Dazhai master Shan Xiongba and his henchman Wei Tu who died, as well as the military advisor Zhang Fang, who had always wanted to show himself, plus he was assassinated by Cai Yinghua and died before, and he was also the fourth master of Shan Xiongba's henchmen.
Today's Taihang Village, it can be said that the small forces of the Dazhai master Shan Xiongba have been completely eliminated by Cai Dao.
The result of this will cause the leaders of Taihang Village to compete for power and profit, but at this time, once they are foreign enemies, they will definitely have the same hatred, because once Cai Dao raises troops to attack them, the matter of sending people to assassinate them will also fall on him. Once the other party feels that the strength of their own cottage is insufficient, they will definitely seek help from external forces.
Cai Dao was not afraid that when his side attacked Taihang Village, the Xixia people or other cottages in Taihang Mountain would come to make trouble, and he was afraid that these people from Taihang Village would attract Liao people.
Before, Cai Dao had always guessed that Song Yuhu was from Western Xia, but now that Wu Renxing has been exposed, why can't these two people be spies of the Liao State?
If it is only Song Yuhu, as long as she is a spy, Cai Dao can be sure that she is a Western Xia person. Because although the Liao people have always been guarding against the Great Song Dynasty using various means to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, they can be proud of the Liao people, and they simply disdain to send a woman to Taihang Village to be this undercover agent all the time. But the two of them, if Wu Renxing is the mainstay, and Song Yuhu is just a Han born in Liao, then it will not be easy to say.
Moreover, there is also the Han Tian whose identity has always been suspicious and happened to escape the catastrophe, according to the information sent back by the spies who infiltrated Taihang Village, Cai Dao knew that this Han Tian was much more important to Taihang Village than others imagined. Several major decisions, Dazhai master Shan Xiongba finally adopted this Han Tian's suggestion, and all of them got good results.
"Dahua, you immediately go and send a message, let all the brothers who entered Taihang Village withdraw, not one of them will be left, and send a team leader who does things safely to immediately bring people to meet them. Be careful on the road and be careful of the other party setting up an ambush to ambush them. Also, when those brothers leave, they should behave casually, and don't let them have the illusion that my words are orders because of my orders. My instructions are just suggestions. Cai Dao stopped Hua Qiyi, which was to order this matter.
No matter where the assassination time will lead the situation in Taihang Village, or even the entire Taihang Mountain, the cottage forces will lead. Cai Daodu decided not to continue to stay in Zhongtiao Mountain, slowly preparing and deploying. The best coping strategy now is to cut through the chaos quickly, and not give the people of Taihang Village any opportunity and time to react and contact external forces.
It took a day to let the captains and captains of each team assign the manpower of each team, and after getting acquainted with the brothers under them, they asked Hua Qianqi and Cai Lanling to gather their men and horses and immediately send troops to attack Taihang Village. In the face of absolute strength, not to mention Han Tian, who is like a god, even if Zhuge Kongming is alive, he can't stop the attack of the three thousand elites of Lu Liangshan.
After Hua Xianqi arranged Cai Dao's instructions and returned, Cai Dao told him and Cai Lanling about his plans.
Unexpectedly, this time, Cai Dao proposed, and Cai Lanling strongly agreed. But Hua Xianqi was reluctant to send troops immediately. The reason he put forward is also very simple, this time, although he brought 3,000 elites from the Lion Village of Luliang Mountain, but these so-called elites are not regular troops after all, maybe they are slightly stronger than the forbidden army in Bianliang City, but if they want to fight a battle with the forbidden army of the same size, they must be defeated on their own side.
What's more, Hua Xuanyi, the owner of the village, is still too short to be able to completely subdue everyone, and in the Zhongtiao Mountain bandit suppression operation, among the three thousand elites, the dead and wounded, the three brigades died one-tenth of the people, not to mention the injured brothers. Now, even if he goes to war immediately, the brothers he can bring with him are only two thousand.
The terrain of Taihang Village is dangerous, the number of people in the village, the strong minions alone have definitely exceeded 3,000 people, although they have lost several village owners and military divisions, but their overall strength is still much stronger than today's lion village. In Hua Xuanyi's opinion, such a hasty attack, failure is inevitable, when the time comes, if these brothers suffer huge losses, how will he go back and explain to the old village owner?
Therefore, the minions of the Lion Village do need a certain amount of time to repair, as well as absorb the surrounding mountain people who are willing to join them, as well as the original bandits in the Zhongtiao Mountain Range.
What Hua Qiyi said is not a problem. In fact, to sum up, the key is one word - morale.
Cai Dao thought about it for a while, and then said, "I still decided to send troops immediately." In this case, you should first order those squad leaders and squadron leaders to immediately replenish the manpower of their own team, so that they can get familiar with their men as soon as possible. Tomorrow before lunch, gather all the uninjured brothers again to the Baiyun Temple. Tell everyone about my decision, and let the captains and all the minions make their own decisions. I believe that there will be brave men under the reward. ”
"Yes, Lord Huazhai, the reason why Childe made such a decision was not a momentary whim. Rather, we all underestimated the complexity of the various owners and the situation in Taihang Village. If Taihang Village is quickly captured, it will be able to cut off all connections between it and the outside world, even if the Liao State and even the Xixia State want to meddle in Taihang Village again, they will not have time. If we continue to take our time here, there is a good chance that the other party will send someone to pick us up. At that time, these subordinates of yours were not necessarily the bandits of Taihang Village, but probably the elites sent by these two countries. Cai Lanling analyzed that although he is a Japanese national, he is now the most important strategist around Cai Dao.
"No!" After listening to Cai Lanling's analysis, Hua Qiqi couldn't help but agree, and immediately turned around and left again.
……
By noon on the second day, Hua Xuanyi, the captains at all levels, the brothers from the Lion Village, the bandits in the Zhongtiao Mountain Range who had been absorbed, and even some brothers who had been slightly injured all gathered in front of the old site of the Baiyun Temple.
Cai Dao stood on the high platform and announced loudly: "Brothers, Poor Dao has decided that early tomorrow morning, all brothers who are not injured will immediately set off to attack Taihang Village. The owner of their cottage has already cut off his head by Cai Junshi. The rest are a bunch of native chickens and dogs, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all. Brothers, you disagree. ”
Although the words were exciting, from the beginning of Cai Dao's speech to the end of his speech, the scene became silent. None of these people responded to Cai Dao, and the situation was a little cold.
