Chapter 607: Great Threat
Since the beginning of the war, Xiang Renli, the head of the Xiang family, has not slept much - the life and death of the family, who dares to take it lightly?
Especially after the counterattack, he stayed in front of the military map and never left a step. This morning, we finally finished the follow-up troops and other affairs, and waited for noon to send troops to assist the front line.
Everything was carried out according to the advance arrangement, which reassured him a lot, and only after the persuasion of the old brothers did he return to the bedroom.
As soon as I picked up the teacup, I heard a faint "buzzing" sound in my ears. At first, he didn't care, but as this "buzzing" sound got closer and closer, he frowned, and was about to open his mouth, but heard "Huh~!" There was a bang, and then, it was "Boom!" There was a loud bang on the ground, and then, he felt a slight shaking of the earth under his feet, and even the teacup and tea lid in his hand made a few crisp banging sounds.
Xiang Renli was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, his face changed suddenly, his eyes showed horror, he put the teacup on the small table in his hand, and rushed out of the door.
The scenery in front of him made Xiang Renli shocked: a huge smoke rose from behind the house a hundred meters away, the people cried and shouted for their mothers to flee in embarrassment, and in the sky, an airplane was circling and flying, and countless leaflets were spilled from the plane, flying all over the sky......
Xiang Renli hurriedly asked the spearmen standing guard by the gate: "What's the matter?" ”
"When you come home, the little ones don't know what's going on. A plane just flew in, without any hovering, dropped a bomb directly, and then, scattered leaflets. "Thanks to the three Phoenix bombings and the planes at the Phoenix Airport flying by from time to time in recent years, the people know that it is called an airplane, and they also know what a bomb is.
"Drop a bomb as soon as you come?"
"Yes."
Xiang Renli immediately understood that the other party was coming to his home, indicating that Wang Shifu had made a move.
At this time, the leaflets landed one after another, Xiang Renli grabbed one, and when he looked at it, he saw that it said, 'If you don't retreat, blow up all of you.'" ’
If it weren't for that bomb, Xiang Renli might not care much about such a naked threat, at least, he would feel that he had the opportunity to buy Wang Shifu's superiors and use military orders to suppress Wang Shifu. But now, the other party gave him a bomb like a warning, showing Wang Shifu's determination, and then finding a relationship to stop Wang Shifu's words, not to mention whether Wang Shifu would disobey the military order, even if it was too late in time.
Soon, Xiang Renli discussed countermeasures with a few henchmen. However, the main battle faction that accepted it when it saw good and the main battle faction that simply went all out to destroy the Wang family as soon as possible. After a fierce quarrel, the main battle faction prevailed. There are four main reasons: first, the Xiang family is the main force this time, they want to retreat, and the other two families don't have to think about it, and they will withdraw their troops ironclad; Second, it is precisely because of the three Phoenix bombings that the four major families have long been prepared for a certain amount of air defense, the most basic of which is to dig a lot of air-raid shelters -- this is the main factor in ignoring Wang Shifu's threat; Third, three families fight one, such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so simply fight for a certain loss and destroy the Wang family as soon as possible. As long as the Wang family is destroyed, Wang Shifu's threat will be self-defeating, and it is not ready-made to go back and clean up Wang Shifu? Fourth, everyone has formed a big enmity, and the development speed of the Wang family is too rapid, if the Wang family is not destroyed this time, then, the three families will probably not have such a good opportunity again, in the future, I am afraid that they will only be beaten, and they will eventually be slowly swallowed by the Wang family one by one.
Originally, the Xiang family planned to give everything they had, recruiting all men over the age of fifteen and under fifty to reinforce Xiang Dingtian, so that women could take on the responsibility of guarding the territory and strive to succeed in the first battle. Moreover, the 10,000-strong army was originally planned to set off at noon, but after Wang Jiafu forced it, the time for sending troops had to be advanced by two hours.
But it was about to be ten o'clock in the morning, the army had been assembled, and when it was about to set off, an accident came: the original more than 2,000 heroes who had drunk torch wine were scattered and did their own things, but under the leadership of Yang Sanfeng, they secretly assembled, and at half past eight this morning, they successfully raided a cottage of more than 1,000 people in Xiang's house, burned and looted, and then left.
The whole county was shaken, especially the people concerned Xiang Jia, so they had to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress the two thousand heroes who were good at raiding homes and robbing houses and were well-equipped. If they suffer too many casualties, it will definitely affect the morale of the front-line combat sergeants.
However, Xiang Renli was really resolute, and while ordering the abandonment of all small villages and concentrating the people in a few major Xiangjia gathering areas, he immediately divided the army into two, half of which supported Xiang Dingtian, and the other half left 2,000 to garrison Xiangjiacheng, and the other 3,000 people went specifically to deal with the more than 2,000 heroes of the rivers and lakes, intending to take advantage of the home advantage and give full play to the merits of intelligence, and strive to fight a decisive battle with the more than 2,000 heroes of the rivers and lakes.
It's a pity that after the more than 2,000 heroes of the rivers and lakes jointly ransacked it, under the command of He Mei, it was reduced to zero. The front-line fighters of the Xiang family were also panicked, but the Xiang family was helpless for a while.
At the same time that the Xiang family was warned by Wang Shifu, the Tian family and the Li family also received such a 'big gift'.
However, compared to the Xiang family, these two families are much better, at least, they don't have to worry about the safety of their territory for the time being. Interestingly, faced with the question of whether to withdraw their troops in front of them, the two of them made a very interesting decision almost at the same time: to look at the meaning of home.
And in the past few hours, the Tian family put on an attitude of confrontation with the Wang family, and did not attack, but the Li family was a little troublesome, and their war with the Wang family was in full swing, even if they wanted to, they couldn't withdraw, but because of the Li family's subjective attitude and orders, the Li family's soldiers and horses who were fighting could only slowly shrink.
However, when they learned that the Xiang family would continue to fight with additional troops, the two families made a very unwise decision - to increase the troops! Because this angered Wang Shifu.
In fact, Wang Shifu also had some concerns about whether to send planes to bomb, after all, on the one hand, his future, and on the other hand, his people. He even thought about it, and simply falsely passed on the military order, and let his subordinates bomb them on the grounds that the other three were instigated by Japanese spies. But just as he hesitated, the two telegrams became the last two straws that crushed his luck.
'Shifu, no matter how sorry I was for you before, I ask you to forgive me...... Don't come back, take care of yourself, and keep a pulse of incense for my Wang family - Wang Shihua's masterpiece! As soon as this telegram written by He Mei herself reached Wang Shifu's hand, Wang Shifu looked up to the sky and cried.
'Wang Shifu, are you fucking or are you not from the Wang family?' The Wang family is going to be wiped out, what the fuck do you care about the official position? You're happy when all your people are dead...... Believe it or not, Lao Tzu, this will lead the troops to destroy you first? This is the telegram that Wang Shirong sent to Wang Shifu after receiving the telegram written by He Mei, and even his mother scolded him, which shows how angry Wang Shirong was when he received the telegram. Everyone knows that Wang Shirong is short-tempered and in a hurry, he really dares to meet Wang Shifu in arms, and his brothers kill each other, which makes Wang Shifu have no way out, and immediately call Wang Shihua back: Brother! Waiting for me, to die, our brothers to die together.
Two battalions were immediately dispatched to attack Tianjia's territory, and the planes were sent out like a big war.
At this moment, the Wang family is very dangerous, and there is even a possibility of collapse if it is not good.
In the battle situation led by Qinghuazhai, Uncle Tiger led nearly 10,000 people, relying on the high mountains and dangerous obstacles, and fought with the 10,000 people of the Tian family and occupied the upper hand.
On the right, the battle situation led by Lei Gongshan, more than 22,000 people from the Li family and the Xiang family, and more than 12,000 people from the Wang family (not counting women and children) fought extremely fiercely.
The Wang family also had to work hard, and recruited all men under the age of fifty and over the age of fifteen to participate in the war. Moreover, Wang Shihua had to change his deployment according to the battlefield situation: in order to prevent revenge on his family, the tribe was originally divided into five gathering areas: Wangjiaping, Leigongshan, Guanhu Village, Laosicheng, and Qidaogou Village. Now, in order to transfer troops, he can only gamble once, and bring all the old and weak women and children gathered around Qidaogou Village into the territory of the Zhao family, and let the Zhao family horses protect them, so as to transfer 3,000 men and horses. At the same time, the people of Guanhu Village were transferred to the territory of the Zhao family, and the defense force was reduced to the lowest point, and 3,000 men and horses were transferred, but fortunately, the distance of the Flying Shark Village was far away, and the waterway of the county town was easily controlled, and 2,000 men and horses were transferred from it - this was the last support force that the Wang family could mobilize.
Just when Wang Shihua was considering whether to transfer 2,000 men and horses from Laosicheng to form an army of 10,000 to support Leigong Mountain, he got the 5,000 reinforcements from Xiang's family and went straight to Laosicheng. Tens of thousands of people gathered in Laosicheng and its surroundings (four or five thousand people have been transported to the Flying Shark Village day and night), and there are more than 7,000 people who can fight.
At this time, there were two choices in front of Wang Shihua: to support Lei Gongshan, who was so precarious that it might collapse at any time, or to defeat the 5,000 men and horses first and hold the foundation of the rise of the Wang family.
Wang Shihua could only ask the two military advisors, and as a result, He Mei considered the overall situation and supported supporting Lei Gongshan first, and leaving 5,000 people to defend in Laosicheng. But the problem is that although the Xiang family has gone all out, the Li family and the Tian family have not done their best, if the Tian family sends all their strength to attack Lao Sicheng, then Lao Sicheng will be in danger, and once Lao Sicheng is lost, the door of the Wang family's territory will be wide open, and the entire battle will collapse on all fronts. Uncle Jiang believes that the advantages of keeping Lao Sicheng outweigh the disadvantages: Lao Sicheng is not only strategically important, but also related to the future of the Wang family, which must not be lost. On the contrary, if Lei Gongshan is lost, although the Wang family will suffer a huge blow, especially in terms of numbers and psychology, it will make the clansmen pessimistic. But there is still Wang Jiaping here, and there is still a lot of strength.
Just when Wang Shihua was suffering, Wang Shifu's telegram came, Wang Shihua saw it, overjoyed, and immediately chose He Mei's suggestion, personally commanded an army of 10,000, and brought enough weapons and ammunition to reinforce the Leigongshan Theater.
As a result, a decisive battle related to the direction of the four major families was staged in the Leigong Mountain War Zone......
