Chapter 1: Drumming (Part 3I)
Li Mi's voice was not high, but it carried a bone-piercing coldness. Xie Yingdeng, who was closest to him, obviously felt the strong hatred in his words, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, and asked in surprise: "Does Mi Gong want to kill him with one blow?" That old thief is not an easy person to get along with, in the past three years, how many heroes have tried to provoke him, but no one has ended up with any good results! β
"It is precisely because the old thief has the blood of his brothers on his hands that I want to get rid of it as soon as possible. Otherwise, when he is familiar with the surrounding situation in Xingyang, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to get rid of it later! Li Mi was slightly stunned by Xie Yingdeng's question, and with the skills he had cultivated over the years, he quickly adjusted his emotions. Since we have raised the banner of righteousness, we must seek for the world. If we know that it is strong and avoid it, will we not disappoint the heroes who are watching us all over the world? β
"Yes, we just have to go up in the face of difficulties, I don't believe it, no one in the world has no choice but to get this old thief!" Qunhao was told by Li Mi to open the world and shut up a righteous speech, and responded with a mouthful of nonsense.
"Yes, let's beat him one by a dozen, and I'm afraid that we won't be able to break his old bones?" Qi Guoyuan danced his fists, lest others not see his heroic image.
Xie Yingdeng smiled and took half a step back, no longer putting his beak in his mouth. Ten against one sounds nice, but often when a war starts, ten people turn around and go backwards together, all hoping that the other partners will go to their deaths.
"Do you think we don't have a chance of winning?" Li Mi keenly noticed that Xie Yingdeng's smile was a little disapproving, shook the feather fan, and asked with a smile.
"Yingdeng just thinks that the old general Zhang Xutuo has a keen sense of smell, and since he has avoided the trap, it will be difficult for me to tempt him in again!" Xie Yingdeng shook his head and replied. In order to take into account the overall situation, he did not want to directly question Li Mi's decision. In his opinion, the victory or defeat of the battle is indeed not absolutely related to the number of people. But Li Mi can motivate the heroes to fight side by side, which is Li Mi's ability. If everyone wants to achieve a career, they really need a talent like Li Mi to gather the heroes together.
"It's really hard for us to tempt the old thief into the trap, but we can fake someone else's hands to kill him!" The smile on Li Mi's face was very thick, and he seemed to be very interested in the title of "old thief".
"Xie is not talented, I would like to hear about it!" Xie Yingdeng arched his hand to Li Mi and put on a posture of humbly seeking advice. In terms of the ability to use troops to fight, Xie Yingdeng thought that Li Mi was far from Xu Maogong. But using some strange tricks outside the battlefield, others are beyond Li Mi's reach.
"Look, everybody!" Li Mi first returned Xie Yingdeng with a kind smile, and then tapped the map hanging on the wall with the goose feather fan in his hand, "The old thief Zhang Xutuo knows that I am waiting for him at the foot of Wagang Mountain, so he avoids it and does not fight." But in order to give an explanation to the faint king, he surrounded a large circle outside our east county and destroyed several heroic villages. β
These are all well-known facts, and there is nothing new in Li Mi to repeat it from a different angle. "Mi Gong, please tell me directly, how can I wait for revenge? As for the shitch on our side, don't mention it again! Wang Dangren was a little upset when he heard this, and suggested loudly. Several other village owners who had just become generals also ordered to echo: "Mi Gong, if you have any arrangements, just say it directly." Let's listen to you and Commander Xu! β
"My plan is that there is a faint king behind Zhang Xutuo. He wanted to take advantage of other cottages, but we didn't let him get his wish. Back then, General Yujuluo was beheaded for passively avoiding war, as long as we sit on the head of Zhang Xutuo for this crime, the old thief will definitely not survive this winter! β
The words fell, and the heroes were silent. Everyone did hate Zhang Xutuo, but everyone was looking forward to how to defeat him on the battlefield with dignity, and no one ever thought that he could kill with a knife. Yang Guang is a faint gentleman, this is the consensus of the group of heroes. The Faint Monarch can also be used by me, but it is a level that has not been seen by their vision before. In an instant, many people seemed to be pushed open in front of their eyes and saw a more complex world. Unlike what they had previously envisioned as black and white, black was not necessarily black, white was not necessarily white, and there were many mixed colors between black and white.
In an instant, even Xie Yingdeng, who was born in the No. 1 family in the south of the Yangtze River, was stunned by Li Mi's outstanding insight. After gasping for a long time, he relieved himself a little and asked solemnly: "This plan can be described as a stroke of genius, but how to implement it, please make it clear to the secret public!" β
"Is this it?" Li Mi dropped his feather fan and gently fanned the cool breeze a few times. Although it is the height of summer, the terrain of Wagang Mountain is high, and it is not very hot in the Juyi Hall. Therefore, his action of fanning the fan is purely superfluous. But at this moment, in the eyes of everyone, there is a different taste of wisdom.
"Well, in my opinion, first, we need to go down the mountain with great fanfare and make a few big troubles on the north and south canals. All the grain of the Eastern Capital comes from the canal, and the summer grain is about to be loaded onto the ship, let's let the faint king starve for a few days, he will naturally have fire in his eyes! Li Mi turned the feather fan horizontally, and said confidently while slapping his palm with the black goose feather on the side of the fan.
"Secret Princess's clever plan!" Hearing this, Wang Bodang, the loyal general, couldn't help but praise loudly. Among the generals, he has the strongest relationship with Li Mi. Just now, I was worried that Li Mi would lead everyone to fight hard with Zhang Xutuo because he couldn't bear to save face, if that happened, once the army was defeated, I was afraid that Li Mi's prestige would plummet. And now, after going around in a few circles, Li Mi has successfully attracted everyone's attention from the failure of his plan and the futility of his work to the new combat mission, so that Wang Bodang is not only admired, but a stone hanging in his heart has also fallen to the ground.
That is, the secret prince can surrender without a fight. As long as Zhang Xutuo is killed, all over Henan, we can't fight wherever we want? Qi Guoyuan also jumped to cheer. Because all the brothers under his command were lost, he has been unsuccessful in Wagang Village. At present, Zhai Rang appointed Li Mi to make decisions on large and small affairs, which made him see an opportunity to rise again, so he spared no effort to make a fool of himself.
"Hehe, this plan has been slow to work, but it is indeed wonderful. The two canals in the north and south have always been the grain depots of our Wagang Mountain, and Lao Cheng went to the river to get grain every year, but he didn't expect that this move would make Yang Guang's faint monarch cut off his arm. Seeing that everyone was talking lively, General Cheng Zhijie also jumped up and gags. "Don't fight with me, Lao Cheng will take a sentry and go directly to the canal to set up a card." In addition to robbing grain, those who travel from south to north on this river, as long as it is an official ship, all taxes will be levied, the civilian ship will be halved, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes will be free. β
This person is the first tired character in Wagangzhai, a rogue urchin. Although he is in his twenties, he always speaks and does things without intention. Therefore, although the official position is high, it is not very respected. Of course, it would be easy for anyone to be estranged from him. just said it coldly, in addition to making people laugh, it also put a cold fact in front of the heroes.
The canal is divided into two in the south, the south canal starts from Yuhang on the surface of the river, and finally enters the yellow place of Yishui, which is connected to the eastern capital outside the Tiger Prison Pass. The North Canal and the South Canal are far away from each other, starting from the Qinshui on the north bank of the Yellow River into the Yellow Mouth, and finally ending at Yuyang, an important military town in the north of the Great Sui. These two rivers, one in the south and one in the north, are the bloodline channels that connect the entire Great Sui. Therefore, the imperial court attaches great importance to the security along the canal, especially near Luoyang, the eastern capital, because it involves the food security of the entire eastern capital, so there are government soldiers patrolling back and forth every month, and when they encounter bandits, they will be wiped out.
In previous years, Wagang Mountain took grain from the canal, and the reason why he left after a vote was never lingered too long was because he thought that he did not have the strength to confront the entire Great Sui. Therefore, although the strategy of robbing grain that Li Mi just mentioned seems simple and easy, it is by no means as easy as imagined.
If everyone makes too few dispatches, it will still be an itch of scabies in the eyes of the imperial court, and it will be impossible to pull Zhang Sutuo into the water. If the number of sorties is too frequent, the government soldiers protecting the canal may not be sure of victory. The method of directly blocking the canal like what Cheng Zhijie said is even more nonsense. The original purpose of the Great Sui to build the canal was to transport soldiers and baggage in the north and south directions, and if the river near Luoyang was stuck, within three days, no less than 100,000 soldiers would surely come from the eastern capital along the river. In that case, everyone needs to face not only Zhang Xutuo's team, but the last remnants of the Great Sui Dynasty.
Thinking of the consequences of the sudden decisive battle, even Qi Guoyuan and the others, who supported Li Mi the most, wilted. If there is the capital to compete with 100,000 government soldiers, everyone has already chased Zhang Xutuo to fight, so why bother to lure him into the urn?
"This can't be done, that's not possible, then Lao Cheng, you say, what should we do. Do you just hold this breath and wait for the old thief to block the door again one day? Wang Dangren pricked up his eyes, and Cheng Zhijie shouted loudly. Xu Maogong and others, who were standing beside Cheng Zhijie, did not participate in the discussion. They were the original members of the Wagang Shan team, and they had always been a little estranged from the new brothers. In the eyes of the angry Wang Dangren, the reason why these people are all unwilling to come forward must be that they look down on everyone and want to see the jokes of the secret prince who advocates the expansion of the army.
"My old Cheng is a martial artist, you let me go on the horse and fight with others, don't be unconvinced, to be honest, I don't care about anyone. If you talk about hiding behind your back and calculating people's deeds, hehe, Lao Wang, you asked the wrong person this time, but I don't know it at all! Cheng Zhijie smiled at everyone and replied nonchalantly.
Alcoholic's note: According to the official history, Zhang Xutuo still has a year to die. Don't worry, everyone. By the way, canvassing.
