Chapter 527: Closing the Door and Hitting the Dog
Li Canghai took out a note full of handwriting from his sleeve, then rolled it up and stuffed it into a bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and then released the pigeon out of the window.
"Little Wu, how are the preparations made by Lord Wang and Lord Yang?" Li Canghai asked.
"Back to my lord, Lord Yang just sent someone to report that he had prepared everything according to the plan, and there was also news from the prince's side, saying that it was ready, and he was waiting for the lord to give orders." Xiao Wu said respectfully.
Li Canghai picked up the teacup and took a sip lightly, nodding.
Xiao Wu looked at Li Canghai in surprise, and couldn't figure out why he was not the slightest nervous when there was about to be a bloody battle in Yangzhou City, but was unusually calm.
"My lord, as soon as it gets dark, this Yangzhou city will fall into a bloody battle, you don't seem to be worried at all?" Xiao Wu wiped his palms that were sweating from nervousness and asked puzzled.
Li Canghai picked up a piece of osmanthus cake from the table, handed it to Lin Xiaomei, patted her little head dotingly, and then said calmly: "Little Wu, you have to remember that no matter what kind of danger you face, you can't mess with yourself. Only by being calm can we solve all difficulties. ”
Xiao Wu was stunned, he scratched his head, and said, "My lord, there are nearly a thousand of these widows!" The garrison of Yangzhou City is only a few hundred, how can it resist those Japanese robbers? ”
"I didn't say I was going to resist them, but I was going to let them into the city." Li Canghai squinted his eyes and said mysteriously.
"Let them into town?" Xiao Wu was even more surprised, and he said in surprise: "My lord, there are so many people in this Yangzhou city, if you let the wolf into the city, won't you send the wild wolf into the flock?" ”
Li Canghai glanced at him and said lightly: "Although the wild wolf is fierce, it is not impossible to deal with. This Yangzhou City seems to be a sheepfold, but it is also a prison, have you ever heard a saying, called 'closing the door and beating the dog'? ”
Xiao Wu blinked his eyes, and suddenly said, "I know!" The adults wanted to catch them all! ”
But then he frowned again, and said worriedly: "But my lord, there are so many people on the other side, and they are all vicious people who kill people without blinking, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with!" ”
"Xiao Wu, have you ever heard of Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, conquering Dingxiang with three thousand iron horsemen and threatening Beidi?" Li Canghai did not answer him, but asked rhetorically.
Xiao Wu nodded, and said with reverence on his face: "This is nature. In the third year of Zhenguan, Wei Guogong obeyed the will of Emperor Taizong and sent troops to fight against the Turks. In the first month of the following year, the wind was fierce, and the prince of Weiguo led three thousand iron horsemen, starting from the border of Mayi City, advancing to the Evil Yang Ridge, and only took one day to hit the front of the tooth tent of Jieli Khan, and captured the prince of the previous dynasty and Empress Xiao, Jieli Khan lost his armor and fled in a hurry, and never dared to be the enemy of the Tang Dynasty again. Wei Guogong is wise and martial, known as the 'God of the Army', and he is a first-class hero of my Tang Dynasty! ”
Li Canghai nodded approvingly, and said: "Yes, Wei Guogong used three thousand iron cavalry to penetrate deep into the hinterland of Beidi and break the Turkic army, but what he relied on was the number of people?" ”
Xiao Wu was stunned, he shook his head, and said, "No, Wei Guogong only has three thousand iron horsemen, and the Turks have tens of thousands. ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "That's it." As the saying goes, there are not many soldiers, but fine. As long as it is an elite division, even if the number is small, it can turn the tide of the battle, which is 'winning more with less'. ”
"There are not many people, but fine?" Xiao Wu tilted his head and thought for a while before nodding and saying, "The Yangzhou garrison is indeed an elite division, but if those Japanese robbers see through the plan of the adults, what should they do?" ”
"The Japanese are greedy by nature, and they have been in obscurity for so many years, just for today. What's more, this is the best time for them, and they will definitely not give up easily. Li Canghai said deeply.
Xiao Wu looked at him stunned, and said suspiciously: "My lord, you seem to know a lot about the Japanese Kou?" ”
Li Canghai had a picture of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in his mind, his face instantly became gloomy, he did not hide the anger in his heart at all, and said coldly: "These widows are all the same ferocious, the same full of plunder, and the same cruelty. They are the same whether they were a thousand years ago or a thousand years later. ”
Xiao Wu was startled by the crazy anger in his eyes, he subconsciously touched his nose and said, "My lord, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Canghai's eyes fluctuated with murderous intent, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath of cool air, and said lightly: "It's okay, I just thought of all the evil things that the Japanese Kou did." ”
Xiao Wu and Xue Xuan glanced at each other, and the two looked at Li Canghai suspiciously, not understanding why Li Canghai, who was usually gentle and elegant, would suddenly burst out with such an amazing killing intent.
They didn't know that the reason why Li Canghai was so angry was not only because of the rampant Japanese pirates in Yangzhou, but also because thousands of years later, these brutal people with unshakable nature brought great disasters to the great country.
Li Canghai has always had a hatred for the people of Dongying, this hatred comes from the bones, even if he is a living person, it has not made him feel this feeling disappear at all.
Originally, he thought that Dongying in the Tang Dynasty did not have much ambition, but now it seems that Dongying's ambition to annex Kyushu in the Central Plains has long been there.
Li Canghai is not a Taoist master, he is a person with clear grievances, he has his own persistence, and he has his own principles.
He couldn't forgive the thief generously after the thief killed his blood relatives.
For him, forgiveness was a matter for the king of Yama, and his task was to send them to the king of Hades.
"Dongying's heart is not dead, and now he still wants to annex the Tang Dynasty, it seems that he needs to teach Dongying a lesson!" A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Li Canghai's eyes.
"Canghai, what are you thinking?" Xue Xuan asked.
"I'm thinking about how to make Dongying daunted by Datang." Li Canghai said deeply.
"Did you come up with a solution?" Xue Xuan asked.
Li Canghai narrowed his eyes and said, "Not yet, but this may be a good opportunity." ”
At this time, it was getting late, Li Canghai looked at the pedestrians who were in a hurry on the street, and then said to Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, quickly go and inform Lord Yang, and let him order a semi-blockade of the city gate, only allowed to enter, not to go out." Be sure to keep all those who want to leave the city out of the city. ”
Xiao Wu nodded and immediately took the order to leave.
"Xuan'er, although I have a plan to deal with the Japanese outside the city, but the Japanese who are wandering in the city are unable to deal with it, I want you to lead a group of officials to patrol around the city, and once you find someone with strange whereabouts, arrest him immediately." Li Canghai thought about it and said to Xue Xuan.
"I'll leave this matter to me." Xue Xuan nodded, she looked at Lin Xiaomei, frowned slightly, and said, "What about the little sister?" (To be continued.) )
