Chapter 447: Showing Weakness
Lu Kai stood on the deck, looking at the Emperor Maiden Peak bathed in the morning light, his face gloomy. Zhu Bao stood behind him, his hands clenched at the sword, and a smile on his thin face. He used to be a big man, but now he is in a foreign country and has to look up to the Wu people. He was bent on returning to the county of Muke, and when he returned to his own land, he would have a chance to restore his pride.
Now, he can only obey Lu Kai's orders.
"Brother Ziyang, it seems that these barbarians are not going to bow down and obey orders." Lu Kai sighed: "We don't want to open the killing ring, but we have to open the killing ring." ”
Zhu Bao hurriedly nodded and said: "What the adults said is very true, these barbarians don't know benevolence and righteousness, and they can't understand the benevolence of adults. My lord, when will the attack begin? ”
"What's the matter, Brother Ziyang can't wait?" Lu Kai smiled slightly.
"It's my honor to be able to charge for adults." Zhu Bao patted his chest and said very heroically: "As long as the adult gives an order, I will kill the mountain, cut off the head of the dog in Heisha, and capture Shamoke's wife and daughter in front of the adult." My lord, Shamoko's daughter......"
"Uh-huh!" Lu Kai faked a cough and interrupted Zhu Bao's flattery. Zhu Bao's mind is very clear to him, he hates people like Zhu Bao very much, but because of the alliance between Wu and Shu Han, he can't blatantly enter Yizhou, and he will definitely rely on Yizhou people like Zhu Bao to make trouble for Zhuge Liang in the future, so he has to pay three respects to Zhu Bao. Although he defeated the Yuanxi tribe, Shamoke's daughter would definitely become his trophy. But he was still not comfortable with Zhu Bao's undisguised approach, as if he had come to attack the Yuanxi tribe to rob people's wives and daughters.
"Then Brother Ziyang, let's prepare, I'll watch the battle for Brother Ziyang." Lu Kai once again set his eyes on the cottage in the distance: "When the time comes, I will force the warship to the front of the village to provide cover for Brother Ziyang." ”
"Thank you, sir." Zhu Bao bowed excitedly.
The two discussed the attack again, Zhu Bao turned around and left, returned to his warship, as soon as he entered the cabin, he sank his face and scolded: "Wu people of dog days." I want to use Lao Tzu as a knife again. If you don't put Lao Tzu together, you won't be reconciled. ”
He turned back and forth in the cabin twice, looking at the Yuanxi tribe cottage in the distance with gloomy eyes, and muttered for a long time. Sneered: "Shamoko." Lao Tzu wants to go home. I had to borrow the head of your wife and daughter first. Don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame the Wu people. ”
At this moment. Lu Kai sat on his own warship, looking at the graceful silhouette of the Emperor Peak, and was content. He knew very well that the Yuanxi tribe had a very important position in the Wuxi Man, but its strength was very weak, and it was not his opponent at all. Let Zhu Bao take the main attack, firstly, to weaken his strength, and secondly, to make him make a feud with Wuxi Man, and in the future, he can only rely on Wu State tightly to gain a foothold.
"Xu Yuan, a scholar, the matter has not been done, and I don't know how to report a letter, it won't be because I was fascinated by that Nanhu, right?" Lu Kai secretly teased Xu Yuan. He gave Heisha ten days to think about it, that is, to wait for Xu Yuan to settle the Nanxi tribe, and now that the time is almost up, Xu Yuan has not sent any news back, which makes him a little unhappy.
But he was just unhappy, and in front of Xu Yuan, he wouldn't have any disrespect. Xu Yuan is a native of Wu County, and his father is noble and noble, and he intends to get close to him, just to have a good relationship with the Wu County Shi clan. This is a matter related to the future of the family, and it cannot be harmed by his personal preferences. With the death of Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and Lu Meng successively, the Liliang of the Jianghuai system is getting weaker and weaker, and if you want to gain a firm foothold in Jiangdong, it is very important to have a good relationship with the Wujun scholars, and you should make some concessions when necessary.
Lu Kai waited for ten days, and on the afternoon of the tenth day, he sent someone up the mountain to send a spy to Heisha Zuihou. If I don't see the order before the sun rises tomorrow, then don't blame me for being rude. I will storm the cottage and level the Yuanxi tribe.
Heisha was learning sword techniques from Wang Shuang, and he had no intention of surrendering at all, and seeing that Wu Ren was so arrogant, he couldn't wait to kill the messenger with one sword. Wei Ba stopped him and told him to say to the envoy, please General Lu give me a few more days, the people in the village are panicking, and I need time to convince.
Heisha is now very convinced of Wei Ba, and he also knows that it is also haode if he can have a little time to prepare. He replied to the envoy according to Wei Ba's intentions, and also sent a generous gift. The envoy was very satisfied, and reported to Lu Kai that Heisha was now convincing his subordinates that it would take a little time.
Lu Kai agreed. However, he did not do so because of kindness, but because of his own considerations. When he was preparing to attack in Qianzhai, he did not wait, he sent a large number of scouts to the back mountain. On the one hand, he was worried that the Yuanxi tribe would escape from this secret passage, and on the other hand, he also wanted to find this passage to carry out a surprise attack, at least to block the back road of the Yuanxi tribe, causing psychological pressure and forcing them to surrender.
Finding a secret passage through the mountains is undoubtedly a very difficult task. However, the hard work paid off, and just when the envoy went to the Yuanxi tribe to send a Zuihou spy, the scouts finally made progress, and they found some strange mountain people in the back mountain, and followed the footsteps of these mountain people to find a secret passage to the back village of the Yuanxi tribe.
Lu Kai was overjoyed, and immediately sent more than 20 elite scouts to sneak to the back mountain, after two days of careful exploration, a warrior found the underwater road, and sneaked to the back village, and saw countless barbarians with his own eyes. They reported the situation to Lu Kai, and Lu Kai shouted daxiao.
"Brother Ziyang, it seems that these barbarians have become smart now, and they actually know the strategy of delaying the army, delaying time while preparing for war. Hehe, I really underestimated them. ”
Zhu Bao echoed and smiled: "My lord, they are so clever, if they can win the opponent of the adult, now the adult already knows the secret path of the back mountain, and they can just attack back and forth, and catch it all." ”
Lu Kai sneered: "What Brother Ziyang said is very true, these barbarians don't know how to advance or retreat, and if they don't let them suffer a little, they will not be obedient." Brother Ziyang, starting tomorrow, you are in charge of the main attack, and you must attract their attention and make them think that we are going to attack, so that the back mountain can have a chance. ”
Zhu Bao scolded in his heart, but his face was wrinkled with a smile, and he praised it repeatedly. The two agreed that Lu Kai sent someone up the mountain again, and Heisha wanted to delay the army again, but the messenger did not break it, and received another gift, and went down the mountain to report to Lu Kai. Lu Kai sneered, and while letting people return and agree to postpone it for another two days, he prepared to attack.
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, the Wu army beat the war drums, and the black and pressed warships pressed towards the front of the village, and on the warships, one after another strong crossbows were ready to attack. Lu Kai led the main force to watch the battle, and Zhu Bao took his subordinates to abandon the boat and landed, forcing to Qianzhai. The mountain road in front of the village is narrow, and only two people can be allowed to walk side by side, so Zhu Bao can only send fifty people to climb step by step.
Hearing the sound of war drums, the warriors of the Yuanxi tribe showed their heads from behind the wall, Heisha held a shield, stood in the gate of the wall, and shouted loudly in anger: "Lord Lu, how can you not believe your words, didn't you say that you would give me two more days?" ”
His voice floated down from the mountain and reached Lu Kai's ears, and Lu Kai sneered. Zhu Bao at the foot of the mountain shouted: "Heisha, do you still want to deceive the adults?" The adults have given you thirteen days, and you have exhausted your benevolence and righteousness, but you want to take advantage of the adult's benevolence and righteousness to delay again and again. Since you don't know how to comprehend the grace of the adult, let you taste the power of the adult. ”
Heisha raised his hand, showed the sword in his hand, and shouted with all his strength: "Lord Lu, if you must force each other hard, then I have no choice but to lead the people of the village and fight with the adults to the end." The Order is the treasure of our tribe, and I will definitely protect it with my life. ”
After more than a hundred steps, Lu Kai couldn't see what was in Heisha's hand, but when he heard the three words "Pan Gu Order", his heart couldn't help but be shocked, and he stood up unfreely, and his eyebrows were overjoyed. Originally, he wasn't sure if the order was in Heisha's hands, but now that Heisha showed it in front of his subordinates, it must not be fake. As long as you take the Decree, this is a great achievement.
Zhu Bao couldn't help but frown, if he could grab the Gourd Order, it would be a great achievement. Without waiting for Lu Kai to order, he roared: "Attack!" ”
Fifty death squads shouted in response, raised their shields and swords, and climbed up the mountain. At the same time, more than a hundred crossbowmen, under the cover of shield soldiers, approached the wall and began to fire crossbows.
"Whoosh!" The feathered arrows galloped and pounced on the wall, and pounced on the barbarians behind the wall.
"Raise your shield!" Heisha ducked back under the wall, raised his shield, and shouted loudly. The more than two hundred young barbarians who had undergone four or five days of intensive training raised their shields in response. Although the shield in their hands was only a wooden plank, it was covered by a wall, and the Wu army was shooting from the back, and the power of the bow and crossbow was greatly limited.
Wei Ba stood behind the wall, watching those barbarians protect themselves according to what they had learned, and nodded with satisfaction. In just four or five days, it was impossible for him to train these barbarians to be as elite as warriors, but it was no problem to teach them basic combat skills.
"How's it going, sir?" Heisha retreated, took the horse chopping knife that had just been beaten from the hand of the guard, and said triumphantly.
Wei Ba smiled slightly: "They are all very smart warriors, it is conceivable that after this battle, they will become real warriors, and the Jingfu will also take a step towards the position of the king of the entire Wuxi tribe." ”
Heisha was overjoyed, grinning, happy, patting his chest and saying: "It's all a gift from adults, Heisha can't repay it, and I am willing to die for adults." ”
"hahaha......" Wei Ba daxiao.
"My lord, when are you going to send those real bows and crossbows into battle? Our bamboo bow and wooden crossbow have too close range to be used. ”
Wei Ba shook his head: "Black sand, show it to be weak, multiply it to be strong." Although the range of the bamboo bow and wooden crossbow is short, it is enough. We just want to make Wu Gou feel that as long as we work harder, we can succeed in order to lure their warship over. Wei Ba pointed to the Wu army's warships in the Emperor's Lake: "Those boats and people are our target." (To be continued......)
