Chapter 321: Careful Planning
Zhang Dashuai saw Wu Zhiyuan asking about Yu Yisu's news, and his face was immediately full of guilt: "Brother Wu, I'm really sorry, it was too chaotic at that time, and the brothers couldn't protect themselves, so they had no time to take care of him and let him run away." ”
Although he didn't experience the vicious battle of the Great Marshal's Mansion, Wu Zhiyuan could still imagine the situation at that time, Yu Yisu was bent on running, that situation was a favorable opportunity, how could he miss it? So this matter is not to blame Zhang Dashuai and others for taking care of the unfavorable, Wu Zhiyuan didn't say much, Yu Yisu was stubborn, and he had repeated troubles, and sooner or later he would have to suffer, but in case Wu Zhiyuan couldn't catch Yisu and return to Yonghe Yizhuang, he could only find a way to explain to Shigong Gushen.
"Let him go." Wu Zhiyuan sighed lightly, "The most important thing at the moment is to eliminate the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty first, and return the people of Jinan City to a peaceful life." ”
Everyone said yes again and again, and Hua Gu asked with a smile: "Since you have a perfect plan, little brother, you might as well say it and discuss it together, if you can use the three of us, we will do the work of dogs and horses." The "three" mentioned by the flower drum naturally refers to her, Laidi and Manniu.
Wu Zhiyuan nodded to Hua Gu and thanked him, and said aloud to everyone: "The remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty have gone against the sky, poisoned the living beings, and are inhumane, and now they have captured Jinan City, occupied the Dashuai's Mansion, and caused everyone to be displaced, so we all have the responsibility to eradicate them for others and ourselves!" ”
Wu Zhiyuan is not a person with a clever tongue, if it was a few months ago, the fledgling hairy boy would never have said this, but after so many changes, Wu Zhiyuan has matured a lot, so these words were impassioned and high-spirited, and immediately aroused everyone's approval.
"I've had a few encounters with these Manchu forces, so I know a little bit about them. As far as I know, their leader was a self-proclaimed 'nine thousand years old' Qing eunuch named Li Lanru. After the fall of the Manchu Dynasty, he encircled the remnants of the forces, living in seclusion in Shandong, and there was a mysterious man in black under him, this man in black was unfathomable, although he had not seen him shoot, but it could be seen that he was a master of extremely high vitality cultivation. Wu Zhiyuan paused here for a moment, and saw that everyone around him showed a worried look, but no one stood up to express his opinion, expecting that the people in the Marshal's Mansion did not see the man in black.
Seeing that no one spoke, Wu Zhiyuan continued: "According to what Adjutant Wang said just now, Li Lanru has already lived in the Dashuaifu, and it is obvious that he has regarded the Dashuaifu's as his lair in the future. ”
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, so if we want to recapture the Marshal's Mansion and Jinan City, we must get rid of Li Lanru, and the rabble under him will definitely be scattered." When Wu Zhiyuan said this, his words changed, "What I'm worried about now is that since Li Lanru has already set up camp in the Dashuai Mansion, the mysterious man in black must be by his side." Therefore, if we want to capture Li Lanru, we must break this man in black! ”
When Wu Zhiyuan said this, everyone nodded yes, obviously agreeing with Wu Zhiyuan's analysis.
"Brother Wu, if you have any plans, just say it, we will do it according to your wishes!" Zhang Dashuai waved his arm and shouted loudly, and his words immediately caused a response from all his subordinates.
Ju'er stood on the periphery of the crowd, her eyes followed Wu Zhiyuan, and her admiration flowed between her eyes.
"Good!" Wu Zhiyuan nodded, "Li Lanru has an adopted daughter named Li Xueying, who was placed elsewhere by me for some reasons, Li Lanru always thought that I had kidnapped Li Xueying, so I wanted to use this to make a fuss." ”
"Let's find a woman of similar size to pretend to be Li Xueying, send a letter to Li Lanru, and lure the man in black out, and at the same time, our people will sneak into the Marshal's Mansion and capture Li Lanru in one fell swoop!" Wu Zhiyuan clenched his right fist and said in a deep voice, "As long as Li Lanru is in our hands, the people in black will not be able to make waves, let alone those rabble!" ”
"But what if the man in black doesn't take the bait?" Hua Gu questioned.
"He's going to take the bait." Wu Zhiyuan was confident and explained, "Although Li Xueying is Li Lanru's adopted daughter, he regards this adopted daughter as a pearl in his palm and cares very much, and the man in black is Li Lanru's most powerful assistant, so as long as there is news of Li Xueying, the man in black will definitely appear." ”
When everyone heard Wu Zhiyuan's analysis, they also felt justified and nodded their heads, but Wu Zhiyuan changed his words, and his face showed worry: "But we also have to prepare for the worst." ”
"What are you going to do?" Everyone asked.
"Li Lan loves her daughter so much, if he and the man in black go to the place we agreed upon, this plan will fail." Wu Zhiyuan had a worried look on his face.
"Hey, I'm not afraid." Zhang Dashuai waved his hand, "Even if this worst-case scenario really happens, I don't think that the dead eunuch and his dogleg will not bring too many people out, we can also be regarded as reducing their power, there are so many of us, we should have a chance to win against them!" ”
"Then we'll do what we do." Wu Zhiyuan felt that what Zhang Dashuai said was reasonable, so he nodded.
"But who are we looking for to pretend to be that Li Xueying?" The brute bull, who had been sitting on the sidelines and was silent, shouted loudly.
Wu Zhiyuan looked away from everyone and looked at the only few women in the broken temple, and his gaze finally fell on Ju'er.
Li Xueying and Moon Shadow Fuxian are very similar in appearance and even voice, so Wu Zhiyuan is extremely familiar, among the three people present, Hua Gu is older and slightly fat, and Lai Di is about the same age, but she is shorter, but Ju'er is more similar to Li Xueying's body shape, if you cover Ju'er's face, it is expected that the man in black is not suspicious of fraud.
Ju'er made eye contact with Wu Zhiyuan, and she understood what Wu Zhiyuan was thinking, she knew that this move was dangerous, but she was willing to do anything for Wu Zhiyuan's sake, so she nodded lightly, her eyes were firm.
The plan was preliminarily finalized, Wu Zhiyuan made personnel arrangements, Hua Gu, Lai Di, Manniu, and Adjutant Wang took Ju'er and a group of soldiers to ambush in the woods west of the city, preparing to ambush the man in black who went to the appointment, not to kill the man in black, but to delay the other party as much as possible while ensuring their own safety. Zhang Dashuai was very familiar with the layout of the Marshal's Mansion, so he and Wu Zhiyuan sneaked into the Marshal's Mansion together and captured Li Lanru.
Wu Zhiyuan's arrangement can be described as exquisite, the man in black has a profound vitality, and he is the most difficult person to deal with in Li Lanru's forces, so Wu Zhiyuan arranged most of the people in the woods west of the city, regardless of whether Li Lanru went with the man in black or not, there were many people on his side, and it was not difficult to retreat after all. And the marshal's mansion is full of rabble, and Li Lanru looks like a sick man, so as long as Zhang Dashuai is with him, it is enough.
Everyone was busy collecting guns and ammunition, and Wu Zhiyuan repaired a book, to the effect that Li Xueying is now in my hands, and I want her to live, so I will carry 10,000 taels of gold tonight and meet in the woods west of the city. In order to make the other party fully believe, Wu Zhiyuan simply used a trick to hide from the world and ask Li Lanru to hand over 100,000 taels of gold to redeem Li Xueying, in fact, this was just a cover for him. After Li Lanru occupied Jinan City, he wantonly burned and looted, looted countless people's fat and ointment, and 10,000 taels of gold was just a drop in the bucket for him. After the letter was written, Wu Zhiyuan sent someone to the Marshal's Mansion.
As soon as Qiē was ready, it was already afternoon, and in order to occupy the favorable terrain, Hua Gu was going to lead everyone to set off first, when the brute bull shouted: "Where is my scimitar? ”
Wu Zhiyuan was stunned, and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Manniu, that ...... The scimitar made me throw my hand in the back of one of the soldiers, and the soldiers ran away with the cutle. I'm sorry, I'm going to fight a new one for you another day. ”
When Manniu heard this, he immediately became angry, almost jumped up, and was about to roar, but the flower girl on the side held him down, and at the same time gave his scimitar to Wu Zhiyuan, and said with a smile: "Little brother, it is also very dangerous for you to go to the Dashuai's Mansion, since Manniu's scimitar is lost, use my one." ”
"This ...... You ......" When Manniu saw this situation, his face turned blue with anger, and he was speechless for a while, stretched out his hand and pointed at Wu Zhiyuan, and then pointed at Hua Gu, but he didn't know what to scold. Wu Zhiyuan was just about to refuse Hua Gu's kindness, when he saw Hua Gu pushing the wild cow while leading everyone towards the outside of the broken temple.
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the backs of everyone walking towards the door, and an inexplicable melancholy suddenly rose in his heart, and at this moment, a slender back turned around and looked at him with tears in his eyes.
