Chapter 87: Just the Beginning

The mountain rain is coming, and it is destined to be a sleepless night.

The flames of the oil lamp jumped, and Zhu Gongdao sat in the room with Ma's uncle and nephew, his eyes falling on Yuan Xu.

Yuan Xu's expression was calm, as if he was saying something completely unrelated to him: "If we intercept the people sent to Yecheng by the second brother, this storm will definitely not be able to escape!" ”

"If you have done it, what are you afraid of?" Zhu Gongdao said: "If the son has any plan, just tell me to do it!" ”

"The confession has been sent to Qingzhou, and when the matter is finished here, I will go to serve the eldest brother."

Speaking of the arranged back road, Yuan Xu saw that the servants had no objection and continued: "I know that the second brother is very deep and ruthless. Once the matter fails, we will wait for the head of the people! ”

"Childe is not afraid, why should we be afraid?" Ma Yi interjected.

"The second brother has five hundred elite soldiers, all of whom are warriors in a hundred battles!" Looking around at the servants, Yuan Xu said: "Fighting head-on, don't say that there are few people in me, even if it is five times as long as him, it is not an opponent!" ”

No one refuted his claims.

The Yellow Turban Incident is prone to tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands!

The officers and soldiers often only have hundreds or thousands, and the two sides fight, and the Yellow Turbans still lose more than they win.

The Yellow Turban thieves who became the climate back then were still like this, and the bandits were even more unable to compete with the warriors of a hundred battles.

"What is Childe's plan?" Ma Fei blurted out.

"Divide and annihilate!" Yuan Xu said: "The second brother secretly planted people in the city, if you want to succeed, you must solve them first!" ”

"Later, send some people to sneak into Dong's house over the wall and loot the warehouse of Dong's house!"

They all nodded.

"When you wait for you to act, a certain county soldier will be dispatched to block the nearby streets!" Yuan Xu continued: "Although the second brother is fine, he is on the periphery. Just block the streets so that he doesn't get his orders, and the matter will be the majority! ”

To move the Dong Mansion, Zhu Gongdao first thought of his mother and asked Yuan Xu, "Can you rescue my mother tonight?" ”

"No!" Yuan Xu categorically vetoed: "There are still a few fights after tonight, how can you take your hands and feet with your mother?" If you are not careful, so that Mrs. Zhu is the enemy, is it not a mistake on top of a mistake? ”

I didn't say anything more.

Yuan Xu is right!

Although Mrs. Zhu stayed in the Dong Mansion, although she was aggrieved, she was not in danger of her life.

If you really want to rescue her, you must take care of her safety when you act, and if you fail, it will affect her!

"Justice led people to infiltrate Dong's house, and Ma Fei and Ma Yi led the people to set up ......an ambush in Anyi Lane," Yuan Xu continued.

Ma Fei asked: "The streets in the city are crisscrossed, why are you only ambushed in Anyi Lane?" ”

"This place is the closest to Dong's house, and the street is the widest, so it is expected that the soldiers and horses from the periphery will come from here."

"Although it was an ......ambush in advance," Ma Fei hesitated.

Yuan Xi's command is a hundred soldiers who are stubborn and stubborn, but they are just a rabble, and the other party also has an advantage in numbers.

The disparity in strength between the two sides was huge, and even if an ambush was set up in advance, the outcome of the battle was difficult to predict.

"Just prepare some dry firewood on the road and set a fire when the enemy goes deep......" Zhu Gongdao took over.

Stopping him, Yuan Xu said: "Setting fire to the city involves many people, this move is definitely not feasible!" ”

"If not, how can we be opponents?" Zhu Gongdao's brows furrowed.

He also knew that there were many implications for setting fire to the city.

Houses are next to each other, and if they are set on fire, many families will be implicated.

However, apart from this method, he couldn't think of any effective way to stop the enemy!

"Find some sticks and bamboo poles!" Yuan Xu said: "Sharpen and set aside!" Bow and arrow are distributed on the roofs of private houses, open your pockets, and wait for the enemy to drill! ”

"What to do with the people in the dark city?" Zhu Gongdao asked.

"Dong Mansion is in turmoil, these people must go to check, wait for the county soldiers to block the streets, and just intercept and kill them halfway!" Yuan Xu said: "In order not to fall into the truth, no one will be left!" ”

"Hurry up!" Yuan Xu didn't delay any longer and waved his hand.

The servants got up and answered, and withdrew one after another.

Intercepting Yuan Xi's messenger, many things are impossible to hide.

The Dong family was attacked, and Yuan Xi's good hand Gu Quan, who secretly stayed in the city, would go to check on them, and kill them in the name of attacking the Dong house, which was justified.

If Yuan Xi doesn't have the next step, Shangcai's matter may be easily resolved, although they are against each other, the loss will not be too much.

However, Yuan Xi will really do nothing?

Yuan Xu didn't believe it, and he never had the luxury of expecting it!

Standing at the window, looking at the dark courtyard, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

After about two or three pillars of incense, the Dong Mansion lit up with fire.

As the fire lit up, a chaotic noise came from the house.

The cries of men and women, accompanied by shouts of killing, plunged the peaceful mansion into a panic.

Yuan Xi didn't have many guards around him, at most he tried his best to protect the courtyard where he lived, and the guards raised by the Dong family were useless, and they were not included in Yuan Xu's expectations at all.

Looking at the place where the fire was lit up, listening to the noisy sound, Yuan Xu's face was solemn.

Success or failure is tonight!

Yuan Xu didn't feel sleepy......

After lingering with Dong Qing twice, Yuan Xi, who had already fallen asleep, was also awakened by the movement outside.

"Childe, there are thieves who have entered the Dong Mansion!" A guard shouted in a panic outside the door: "I don't know if I will kill here, Childe or ......"

"What's the panic?" Sitting up violently, Yuan Xi shouted: "Defend the courtyard, don't let the thieves break in!" ”

"No!" The guard answered, turned and ran away.

The firelight shone into the room through the window, and Yuan Xi's cheeks were flushed.

He was a little nervous.

In case the people who killed into Dong's house rushed over, he would not be able to resist the enemy with the little manpower around him!

But he had no intention of leaving!

It's not the last step yet, if you go at this time, you will lose the whole game!

Even if he was really the target of those people, he could leave Dong Qing behind at the last moment and escape over the wall at night under the cover of the guards.

Dong Qing was also awakened by the chaotic shouts outside.

With her round eyes wide in horror, she curled up beside Yuan Xi, holding his arm tightly, and her body was trembling violently.

Pushing Dong Qing away, Yuan Xi got up and put on his clothes.

The shouts of confusion were far from his dwelling, but he was reluctant to take any chances.

Just because you don't have any plans to run away doesn't mean you won't run when danger comes.

Seeing him get up, Dong Qing also hurriedly put his clothes on his body.

Looking at the firelight outside, Yuan Xi found that the shouting was gradually lowering.

"Childe, the thief has retreated!" The voice of the guard came from outside the door: "They just looted the warehouse of the Dong Mansion, and did not kill here." ”

"He really didn't dare to kill so-and-so, but how could so-and-so tolerate him? Secret order the people who are lurking in the shadows! With murderous intent in his eyes, Yuan Xi commanded.

The light of the fire gradually dimmed, and the noisy shouts grew quieter, until at last only the servants and maids were left to greet each other with fear as they tidied up the house......

Walking behind Yuan Xi and looking at the fading night outside the window, Dong Qing whispered, "It's over......"

"Just the beginning!" Yuan Xi said coldly.
