Chapter III Special Forces
When Chail heard this, he was shocked, and said: "The alliance has just been established today, where do you start with this?" ”
Li Tianhao hurriedly replied: "Today's alliance can succeed, which is somewhat of a fluke, and although everyone has already regarded you as the leader of the alliance, they may not be convinced in their hearts. In particular, it is inevitable that some mountains will be merged in the future, which will also make some village owners dissatisfied. In this case, the foundation of our alliance will be shaken, and it is clear that Drum is worried that he will not have a chance to challenge you, and we cannot give him this opportunity. ”
"What Brother Li said is extremely true, I don't know what you have to do?"
"At the end of the day, the food output from the development of mountainous areas can change the current living conditions, but it only solves the problem of food, and this measure will not bear fruit in the short term. For the sake of the present plan, we should achieve some remarkable results as soon as possible, so that everyone can see the actual benefits, so that the people's hearts will gather towards us, and things will be easier to handle in the future. ”
Chail touched his beard and nodded, "That's true, but what can we do now to have such a big effect?" ”
Li Tianhao smiled slightly, took out a piece of parchment from his clothes, gently spread it on the table, and said, "Your Excellency, please see, this is a map I drew by the way when I visited the eastern region of the Dils Mountains during this time. ”
Chail was surprised and delighted at first sight, happy that he had wanted to complete this work for a long time, but it could not be implemented due to the mutual restrictions between the mountains, and today let Li Tianhao do it; What is surprising is that this person is young, excellent in martial arts, outstanding in archery, and diplomatic, but he didn't expect to be able to make maps, he is really a terrible talent. He naturally didn't know that Li Tianhao had been sailing since he was a child, and drawing nautical maps was commonplace.
While Chail was thinking about it, Li Tianhao pointed to a corner of the map and said: "Please see the alliance leader, the roads in the eastern part of the Tiersberg are complicated, but there are only two or three roads that can really mobilize the army, and these roads divide our hundreds of mountains into several pieces, and all the convergence points of these two or three roads are built with cities, which are guarded by the private troops or armies of slave owners. As a result, we are quite inconvenient to communicate with each other, and we have to go far and wide every time. If we can open up these lines of communication, we will be able to become a contiguous territory. ”
Chail said in surprise: "Brother Li, do you mean to capture these cities?" ”
"Not bad! There are food, land, weapons, money and slaves in these cities, these are all the materials we need, if we can capture these cities, our financial situation, food reserves, weapons and equipment, and the number of personnel will have a qualitative leap! At the same time, we can also join together and use these cities as a base to resist the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers! Li Tianhao said eloquently, as if he was going to pick a pumpkin in his vegetable patch.
"But, with our strength, it's ・・・・・・ too reluctant to capture the city, right?"
Li Tianhao leaned closer and said softly: "Lord of the alliance, please think about it, there are only two main reasons why everyone is willing to participate in this alliance we formed, one is to solve the problem of survival and food, and the other is to jointly resist the officers and soldiers." However, if the officers and men continue to pursue the strategy of not being able to eliminate and wait for us to kill each other, soon the owners of the village will feel that they are relatively safe, and now that the problem of eating has been solved, these people will be lazy and do not want to make progress. In this way, the foundations of our alliance will be shaken, and it is better to take the officers and soldiers by surprise before they know our accurate information. At that time, the prestige of the alliance leader will be greatly enhanced, and our alliance will be solidified. ”
Hearing this, Caire felt a chill rise behind him: This kid took advantage of the idea that I wanted to be the leader of the alliance and pushed me to the position of the leader of the alliance. What are you doing now with the idea that I want to keep this position? Take the initiative to attack officers and soldiers? Are officers and soldiers easy to mess with? When the time comes, I'm afraid that there will be endless troubles. He shook his head and said, "Although Brother Li's idea is good, it is too risky, and if you miss it, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses." ”
Li Tianhao glanced at Chail and said with a smile: "I also feel that this matter is a little more risky, so I want to ask for the consent of the alliance leader to form a special force in our alliance." ”
"Special forces?"
"That's right, the success of the siege is too small, so I want to select some strong soldiers from the alliance leader's stockade, and add them to the subordinates to carry out intensive training, and then go to carry out the task of secretly seizing the city. If we succeed, we will be happy, but if we fail, the officers and soldiers will think that it is nothing more than a riot or riot started by slaves, so that we will not be suspicious. ”
Chail carefully calculated it in his heart, and felt that the risk was small, and most of the time he used was Li Tianhao's team, so even if he missed, he would not lose too much. Only then did he nod his head in agreement. The two began to discuss the details of the plan.
Early the next morning, according to Li Tianhao's proposal, Chail secretly summoned Lorencis and Woolley to discuss the matter together, and Li Tianhao was responsible for explaining the plan. Both were taken aback. Lorencis was the first to speak: "Such a thing is unheard of, each castle is quite strong, even if we can take one of them, it will alarm the other castles, and then it will not set ourselves on fire?" ”
Li Tianhao said unhurriedly: "So we have to disguise ourselves as slave riots, so that even if we are discovered, the other party will think that it is just an accidental incident in a certain city, and if they send troops to encircle and suppress it, then we will just take advantage of it." Regarding this battle plan, the most important thing is secrecy work and intelligence reconnaissance, and I hope that Lord Lorencis can help in the next step. ”
Lorencis was silent. Although he did not agree with the battle plan, it did not seem to be useless. The biggest variable at the moment is the ability of Li Tianhao, who led this operation, Li Tianhao is absolutely trustworthy in terms of martial arts, but if he commands the troops, what kind of skills does this young man have?
In the end, he decided to take a gamble. "Then I agree to participate in this plan, but I declare in advance that I am only responsible for the collection and confidentiality of intelligence, and I will not participate in the rest." ”
Li Tianhao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you for your help, with sufficient information, we will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort." ”
"Then I'll help you too," Woolly stood up and said, "Brother Li, all my men, including me, are under your command!" ”
As soon as these two people said this, the matter was settled. At that moment, Li Tianhao went to Chail's army to select men. Originally, there were more than 500 people under Tatar and Jimda, and after removing some of them, there were nearly 800 people, plus Woolley's more than 300 people. Therefore, Li Tianhao only picked 200 strong soldiers from Chail's camp and stopped. Chail thought he had picked too little, but Li Tianhao said: "The soldiers are expensive, not too expensive, and besides, this time we are not going to attack hard, and it is easy to be exposed if there are too many people." When Chail saw him say this, it was just that, not to mention that he only used two hundred of his own people to get into the favor, and he didn't intend to spend too much money on it.
In this way, Li Tianhao had an army of 1,000 people.
