Chapter 153: Assassination of the Leader
"More than a thousand? Hahaha, don't panic, even if this army is coming at us, it doesn't matter, our Tianya Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the other party is a regular army of the Great Zhou, it is about the same number as us, and it can't be attacked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
The middle-aged man, who was called a 'military advisor' by the spies, swore solemnly.
In fact, it is not unreasonable for him to be so confident, Tianya Mountain is steep, there is only one circling mountain path, even the army can't arrange a military formation in such a narrow place, and they are condescending and excellent for defense.
The only way is for tens of thousands of soldiers to attack with crowd tactics, but the losses are too great, and the Great Zhou government is not stupid.
Or directly close the mountain and consume their own grain and grass, but the food on Tianya Mountain is enough to support half a year, if this army is patient, just wait at the bottom of the mountain for half a year.
"Hahaha, good! Strategist, you go and deploy, if they dare to come, we will beat him to the ground! it! The one-eyed man laughed.
On the other side, Liu Xu and the others also came to the foot of Tianya Mountain.
"Although this Tianya Mountain is not high, the mountain is steep, no wonder it will become a den for bandits."
Xia Shisan raised his head, looked at the sheep intestine path hovering in the mountains, and sighed.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Tianya Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if it is attacked so forcibly, I am afraid that half of the mountain will be driven down by the bandits on the mountain.
"What should I do?" Yan Linfei touched Wang Shun beside him and asked.
When it comes to assassination, he is first-class, but he is not good at marching and fighting.
"The other party is condescending, and it may be a bit difficult to attack." Wang Shun pondered for a moment.
He thoroughly studied all the military books that Liu Xu gave him back then, and as soon as he saw such a scene, he immediately came up with a countermeasure in his mind.
"In my opinion, if you want to take this mountain, you must first behead it." Wang Shun continued, what he meant was to capture the thief and capture the king first, and the masters on his side were like clouds, sending elite soldiers to sneak up the mountain, kill the leader of the other party, and then implement the next step.
Pang Yuan on the side nodded appreciatively, if you want to take down this mountain, you really need a beheading plan.
Even Xia Shisan cast an appreciative look at Wang Shun, and secretly sighed in his heart that there were still a lot of masters around Liu Xu, but he still asked: "Lord Liu, what do you think should be done?" ā
Liu Xu shrugged helplessly: "Wang Shun has said, behead first, then follow this plan." ā
Xia 13 nodded, in fact, he was unhappy in his heart, if he had killed that spy before, and now he suddenly launched an attack on the mountain, and the rapid army raided, maybe he could directly rush to the top of the mountain and take the bandits away.
Liu Xu certainly knew what Xia Shisan's heart was thinking, if he took these bandits in a nest, he would still be a hairy person.
"That's it, Xiaofei, you sneak up the mountain with me, let's kill their leader first, and then come back to discuss."
Liu Xu looked at Yan Linfei, if you want to talk about assassination, the most powerful one here is Yan Linfei.
"Me?" Yan Linfei pointed at himself, looking incredulous.
"Nonsense, it's not you or who! When it comes to assassination, you're a good hand. Liu Xu waved his hand impatiently.
In fact, it doesn't matter if Yan Linfei wants to go up the mountain or not, as long as he goes up the mountain, this group of bandits will bow down, after all, that god-level aura - the majesty of Zhang Mazi is there.
But the bandit leader must be killed, otherwise even if these bandits are under their command, the hearts of the people will not gather.
"No, no, no, I mean, us?" Yan Linfei hurriedly explained.
"What's wrong? You go with me, what's the problem? Liu Xu frowned.
"Senior brother, do you know that assassination is such a thing...... Very cautious things, there is no room for half a difference, although the other party is just a small bandit leader, but there are more than 800 people under his command, with a burden, I'm afraid it's not easy to start, in case it's exposed, I still have to protect you......"
Yan Linfei laughed dryly, and then didn't care about Liu Xu's face at all, and said it directly.
Liu Xu's face darkened, and everyone suddenly became happy.
"Ahem, so, senior brother, let me go alone to ensure that the task is completed." Yan Linfei said, and a bright smile appeared on his face again.
Liu Xu's face darkened.
"I could have gotten going, but since you said so, then I had to go." Liu Xu's eyes widened.
Xia Shisan, who was on the side, frowned, why is this Liu Xu so childish, now that this is a serious matter, the most suitable person should be arranged to do it, isn't he going to add to the chaos, why should he be angry?
If this is on the battlefield, maybe it will lead to the defeat of a battle because of Liu Xu's anger.
"No, I'll have to talk to the county lord when I go back."
Although Xia Shisan was quite obedient to Liu Xu before, there was no room for sloppiness in military matters.
"Okay, since you insist on going, senior brother, then I'll reluctantly take you." Yan Linfei learned Liu Xu's movements just now, and shrugged helplessly, which immediately caused everyone to laugh again.
"Brother Liu, be careful." Li Zhiqing reminded loudly.
Pang Yuan also kept staring at Liu Xu, only he knew why Liu Xu insisted on going.
Before leaving, Liu Xu told him that he didn't need to spend a single soldier to subdue the bandits, Pang Yuan didn't believe it at first, but when he asked Wang Shun, he knew that the predecessor of the Excalibur Army was the horse bandits in Chuyang County.
To be honest, he also wanted to go over to see how Liu Xu 'subdued' the bandits, but he didn't know any martial arts, and it was the real burden to go.
So, Yan Linfei and Liu Xu began to sneak up the mountain.
They didn't take the trail, but climbed the rocks or walked through the jungle, in short, the more hidden the better.
Halfway through the climb, Yan Linfei suddenly stopped, and he took out a ghost mask from his arms as if he had something to do, and then put it on.
"Lin Fei, hurry up." As soon as Liu Xu turned around, he saw a familiar grimace, which almost scared him to death.
"Wait, why is this mask so familiar? Damn, I remember, it wasn't you kid who assassinated me on the official road last time! ā
Liu Xu thought about it at this time, and then scolded angrily.
"Hehe, that's right, it was me last time, but I didn't know that I knew my senior brother at the time, it was to collect money from people to eliminate disasters for others, no, I didn't go to kill Wang Leifeng later, and I compensated you, didn't I?" Yan Linfei laughed embarrassedly.
Liu Xu took a deep breath, and after a long time, he said slowly: "Okay, I forgive you, but forget it when you wore a mask last time, what mask will you wear this time?" Are you afraid of being recognized? ā
"Senior brother, you don't understand, I have to wear this mask for assassination." Yan Linfei said solemnly.
