In the hot summer sky of July, the checkpoints on the east and west sides of Anle Village were surrounded by officers and soldiers transferred from the capital.

The commander of the leading troops is an elderly man, Li Liangguang, who is known as the 'Flying Tiger General' in the army.

After Li Liangguang led his troops to surround the checkpoints in the east and west of Anle Village, he was not in a hurry to attack. He first summoned two failed people who led the troops to attack Anle Village in the commander's tent, one was the grain officer He Daren, and the other was Liu Dapang, the official of the town government of Gulan Town.

The two were frightened by the personal soldiers sent by Li Liangguang to invite the camp, and everywhere they looked, the military appearance was neat and majestic. The battalion was well arranged, and the sentry posts flowed in an orderly manner. The companies of the three armies are afraid of each other, and they respond to each other. The light and dark whistles on the periphery complement each other. Water encroaches on the soil and floods, and it is properly protected. At first glance, the army transferred by the imperial court was indeed an extraordinary local regimental training.

He Dafu was secretly happy in his heart, and said to Liu Dapang. "Look, this time Liang Wangfu and Lei Deputy Xiang are really making a big move. Dispatched such a powerful member to come down, Li Qiusheng, you kid, and the bandits and robbers in Anle Village, this time I have your good show to watch. Hmph, it's not good to go against whom, but against Liang Wangfu and Deputy Lei, it depends on how you die. ”

Liu Dapang suddenly said hatefully. "Well, this time, let's get back all the things we lost before from them, even if we dig the ground three times, we won't let them go a bite."

"I said, Lord Liu, can't you leave some yin virtue? Say anything, don't dig three feet into the ground, and don't let them go. Apparently, do you think this place has the weight to talk about? Don't be naïve, we don't know what the outcome will be. As long as we can shirk the responsibility for the loss of grain and grass, it will be considered a blessing. Lord He suddenly spurred Liu Dapang and said, as if Liu Dapang's stomach must be the same as his, otherwise no one will be able to get rid of the responsibility of losing food.

Liu Dapang saw that He Dafu's words were wrong, and immediately changed his words and said. "Yes, yes, wherever the army goes, it doesn't matter who dies or who lives. As long as we can get rid of our responsibility for losing food this time, it will be our best ending. ”

He Dafu sneered for a moment, as if he agreed with Liu Dapang's words. "Well, wait a moment to see the leading coach, let's say so, keep it safe."

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the lights are bright, and the atmosphere is solemn. A veteran is sitting majestically on the tiger skin seat, and the generals who are listening to the orders on both sides are sitting on the round piers on both sides, with a solemn expression and blazing eyes.

The two of them stood at the foot of the steps in the tent in a panic, and hurriedly clasped hands in salute. "Xiaguan He Fu, Liu Dapang has seen General Li. I wish General Li a thief and a victorious start. Clarify the unai and revitalize the prestige of our country. ”

After turning over the politeness, I only heard a vigorous dragon voice from the tent, and the handsome man under the tiger skin seat spoke.

"The two of you don't have to be polite, this marshal was sent by the imperial court to lead the troops to capture the thieves and quell the rebellion, can you carefully introduce the situation of your two enemies, so as to facilitate our army to suppress the thieves, the civilians are angry, and the world is peaceful."

The two of them had something to say, and He Dafu spoke first. "Commander Li, the lower officer twice led the officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress the thieves of Anle Village and the court prisoner Li Qiusheng, all of whom were defeated by the thieves by taking advantage of the favorable time and place, but fortunately, the thieves of Anle Village were only injured but not killed, so although the officers and soldiers suffered defeat, there was no loss of personnel. This really surprised He, since ancient times, soldiers and thieves have been in power over fire and water, either you die or I die. But this Anle Village is winning but not killing, chasing but not catching, it is really puzzling? Coach Lee, please make it clear. After saying that, He Dafu immediately stepped aside.

The generals and schools in the tent were all shocked, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to explain for a while. I only heard Coach Li on the tiger skin seat ask, "The thieves in Anle Village actually do this kind of benevolence and righteousness without killing?" It's really weird. I don't know what you think, so let's talk about it. And when he had finished speaking, he listened to the multitude.

Liu Dapang was afraid that he would fall out of favor in front of Li Liangguang, the commander of the army, so as soon as his voice fell, he immediately hugged his fists forward and saluted. "Boss Li, the thieves of Anle Village really said that Lord He and I led troops to encircle and suppress twice, all of which were forced by the situation of the terrain and the time limit, and the thieves were born in and out of the night to benefit, when the ground was ripe, they came out late at night, leaned on the forest and ambushed, surrounded and gathered. The most hateful thing is that every time the enemy enters and sneaks in, they are trapped by the thieves' 'pepper cannons', 'flowing oil' and 'lime dust'. ”

As soon as Liu Dapang's words fell, the generals in the tent had another small discussion. And the commander of the army, Li Liangguang, sat suspiciously on top of the big tent, as if he was puzzled, and pondered deeply. Because in his career of leading troops to march and fight, he had never encountered such a strange enemy or thief. said that he was good, but he also did some chicken and dog thief things, and said that he was bad, and the two encirclement and suppression did not even stain the blood of officers and soldiers. Hey, such a small Anle Village thief and Li Qiusheng actually made the 'Flying Tiger General' have inexplicable doubts in his heart.

The bandits must be captured eventually, otherwise what is the use of raising soldiers. After thinking about it, coach Li Liangguang finally said to the generals in the tent. "In view of the fact that the officers and men have lost two or two battles against the thieves in the first two times, our army's main means of suppressing the thieves this time is to lure them out of the country and force them to submit. The thief does not move, I do not move, and when the thief moves, I move. Take the strengths of the thief to make up for the shortcomings, abandon the thief's land and bend his blade. Defeat and attack, bind and capture. ”

When the generals heard this, they were very puzzled. For a while, he looked at the boss in the tent and walked away, as if he was a new student and didn't know what his husband was explaining.

Li Liangguang looked at the performance of the generals, shook his head and sighed, and immediately got up and walked to the topographic map and said. "Ladies and gentlemen, the thieves of Anle Village are located under the stone peak of Gulian Mountain, the east and west lines run through, and the north and south are full of thousands of sharp cliffs. This place occupies the three major advantages of the time, place and people, and it is the most dangerous peak place that you don't want to see, and it is unfavorable for our army to attack in all directions. If you want to successfully eradicate the thieves, you must have a chance of victory. Otherwise, it will be difficult for God to win. ”

When the generals heard this, they all sighed that this time and place were the fatal root cause of their crackdown on thieves. I had to ask questions again, so I only listened to what coach Li Liangguang said. "Since you understand the situation of the geographical advantage, the time of the people is greatly disadvantageous to our army's advance. Then let's disperse first, think of a good strategy, and wait for the horn in our army to sound again, and then make unified plans. ”

The generals in the tent were puzzled, but the boss had already ordered to disperse first, so he had to follow the order, and did not dare to slack off. As everyone was leaving, coach Li Liangguang suddenly waved his hand and stopped a school captain. Zhang Xiaowei immediately walked over and said, "The boss has something important to explain separately, and he has not completed the oath." ”

Commander Li waved his hand to Captain Zhang, motioned for Captain Zhang to stretch his head over, he whispered carefully in his ear, and then patted Captain Zhang's shoulder and bowed. "Captain Zhang, this commander is all up to you, success and failure are all in one move, you have to do it yourself."

Captain Zhang curtsied and saluted, "Please rest assured that the coach will not swear to complete the coach's entrustment and win Anle Village in one fell swoop." With that, he turned and walked away.

The meeting hall of Anle Village was already full of noise, some were talking and laughing in twos and threes, some were gathered around and whispered about the fear of war, and some bragged about not making drafts to raise their own value. Anyway, now that the lord of Di Zhai doesn't speak, the second boss and the third boss also pretend to be deaf and dumb, and they will become a group of robbers and bandits.

After everyone was awesome for a while, the verbosity was over, the anger was exhausted, and the most important thing was that the was over.

Lord Di Zhai glanced at Li Qiusheng, who was sitting next to him, before he stood up and spoke. "Brothers, sisters, fathers and elders, now the periphery of Anle Village is besieged by officers and soldiers again, but fortunately, the little hero Li Gongzi has the foresight, so that we can rely on ourselves to generate some food, so that everyone will not be trapped by food. But the biggest headache now is that the imperial court has finally sent a large army to encircle and annihilate our Anle Village. I heard that the old general known as the 'Flying Tiger General' was specially sent to the whole army as the commander, in my opinion, this 'Flying Tiger General' is not here to play with us, he is here to copy our nest in Anle Village. It is very likely that Anle Village will be wiped out under the encirclement and suppression of this 'Flying Tiger General', brothers and sisters, if you have any ideas, just say it, and you can refer to it in detail. lest when the war breaks out, it will be difficult to speak. ”

"Lord Di Zhai, you have the ambition of others to destroy our prestige. Let's have been in the village for more than ten years, when have you ever been afraid of the officials and soldiers sent by his court. Not to mention an old-fashioned 'Flying Tiger General', even ten or eight 'Gopher Generals' and 'Bat Generals', our brothers in Anle Village are not frightened. A middle-aged reckless man with a face full of beards and breasts stood up and said bluntly, as if he was debating with someone else who had no room for bargaining.

"Well, Lord Di Zhai, the third man is right, for more than ten years, Anle Village has also experienced strong winds and waves, why should we be afraid of a 'flying tiger general'. As long as the people in our village are united, we will definitely sneak attack and win like the previous two times. A middle-aged strong man who looked a little timid continued the topic just now, and he also foresaw a look of fighting to the death and not wanting to be bound by others.

"Well, Lord Di Zhai, let's live and die or fight. They won't let us live, and if we lose, we won't be alive, even if we abandon evil and follow good now, the court may not accept us in peace. Someone in the middle shouted, and everyone in the hall muttered again, "Fight to the end, life and death are decided." ”

Seeing this scene, the high emotions of everyone in the hall had reached the point of taking advantage of the flames, and it was difficult to calm down for a while.

Li Qiusheng hurriedly stood up, waved his hand to comfort everyone, and said.

"Brothers and sisters, don't say kill and fight as soon as you come up. We have to calm down first and think carefully about whether it is war or peace? With our little ability, it is impossible to compete with the imperial army. At most, we can only rely on the advantages of the terrain to stubbornly resist the enemy, and we must not confront him head-on. Otherwise, we will definitely lose. ”
