Volume 2 A Light in the Night Chapter 73 Attack
In the daytime planning, the action plan formulated by Zhao Ning and the others was based on the premise that the White Clothes Society and the Goshawk Gang took the initiative to attack Yipinlou, if they lost the cooperation of Jingzhao Mansion, or if they noticed something abnormal, the White Clothes Society and the Goshawk Gang would not move, then the cultivators who had already ambushed themselves would have no goal, and the previous action plan would not be able to be implemented.
"Will the Liu family decisively give up such a big action because of this small change?"
Su Yeqing, who was immersed in eating, suddenly stopped her movements, raised her head in surprise and asked, she didn't want this to happen, she looked at Zhao Ning with nervous and expectant eyes, wanting to get a negative answer from Zhao Ning, but she didn't notice at all that there was still a huge plump rice grain stuck to the corner of her mouth.
"Possibly. ”
Zhao Ning wouldn't open his eyes and say nonsense, he caught a glimpse of the rice grains at the corner of Su Yeqing's mouth, and was amused by the other party's silly appearance, and when Su Yeqing's eyes became confused, Zhao Ning pointed to his face.
Su Yeqing first looked at Zhao Ning seriously, and after looking for a long time, he didn't find anything, and suddenly reacted, wiped the corner of his mouth, and was horrified to find a fat white rice, and suddenly even his earlobes were blushing, and he couldn't care about listening to what Zhao Ning said, he lowered his head and wanted to get under the table.
Hu Honglian saw this scene, and at the same time, Zhao Ning's eyes also changed a little, and the meaning was quite far-reaching.
Zhao Ning knew that he was out of shape and was a little dumbfounded. The behavior just now will seem very rude to the person who has just met, and if it is not done well, it will make the person who is pointed out to be embarrassed and angry, and he will be angry with himself. Only close friends can do this in person.
It's just that for Zhao Ning, seeing Su Yeqing, the emotions he brought from his previous life, he would always subconsciously regard the other party as an old friend, and he lost his demeanor for a while.
In a trance, the pictures of the two worlds staggered and emerged, the figures of the bloody battle side by side on the battlefield, the bright moon breeze with the head of the broken city holding their bags and drinking, and the two Su Yeqing seemed to appear in front of Zhao Ning's eyes together. The mature face with long hair fluttering, glowing a little red against the light of the bonfire, was just right for the shyness of the person in front of him. Zhao Ning was a little distracted, and hurriedly reached out to grab the wine glass, lowered his head and took a sip.
Wei Wuxian didn't notice Zhao Ning's strange appearance, and asked eagerly, "If the White Clothes and the Goshawk Gang don't attack, what should we do?"
Listening to Wei Wuxian's tone, Zhao Ning knew what he was thinking, and when he turned his head and saw the other party looking at him quite eagerly, he almost squeezed his eyebrows, where could he not know the other party's mind - Wei Wuxian's question, he must already have the answer himself, just waiting for someone to ask, so that he could show his intelligence in front of Hu Honglian "without a trace".
Zhao Ning sighed, made a distressed expression, and paused for a moment. He asked, "This is indeed a difficult problem, and it is not easy to solve." Old Wei, you have always been full of wisdom, what do you think we should do?"
Seeing that Zhao Ning knew his mind and cooperated so well, Wei Wuxian raised his eyebrows happily, but he pretended to cough twice, made a contemplative appearance, and deliberately did not look at Hu Honglian, so as to appear that he was focused and serious, and his eyes lit up and said, "I have a plan to deal with it!"
Liu Muzhi pondered for a long time, constantly weighing the pros and cons.
He remembered his original intention for establishing the White Coat Society.
After Xu Minglang became the prime minister, relying on his position as the head of the hundred officials, when he overthrew one by one generals, he let the Xu clan and cronies replace him, so as to continue to grow the Xu family. Especially after seizing the military department from the generals, the Xu family, which was originally ranked in the middle and upper ranks in the door sequence, became a first-class gate.
Then, Xu Minglang achieved the king of the extreme realm, the Xu family produced many talents, and many masters sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, constantly occupying high positions and eminent courts!
Because of this, he could only stay in the position of participating in political affairs, and never went further, replacing Xu Minglang, and becoming the prime minister of the dynasty!
Just when I thought that this was the luck of the Xu family, and it was time for their lintel to prosper, I saw Xiao Yan, the princess of Beihu, and only then did I know through the investigation of clues that the reason why the Xu family had many masters was to accept the continuous financial and filial piety of Beihu!
Every year when the envoys of Beihu come to the capital to pay tribute, they will give the Xu family a generous gift and bribe Xu Minglang to say good things for the Tianyuan tribe!
It is no wonder that the Tianyuan tribe has jumped from a weak tribe to one of the four major tribes of the grassland in just one or two decades, but the court does not have much fear and vigilance against them.
originally thought that this was Xu Minglang standing on the position of civil and military disputes, and did not want to give the Zhao clan stationed at Yanmen Pass in the north and the Sun clan and Shi clan stationed at Shanhaiguan a chance to grow because the imperial court re-attached importance to and conquered the grassland, but it turned out that this was just a situation that Xu Minglang deliberately promoted for his own selfishness and accepted the rich wealth and cultivation resources of the Beihu Tianyuan royal court!
For the development and growth of the Xu family, Xu Minglang can be said to do everything, and there is almost no bottom line!
It is really a great shame to be replaced by such a person and such a family, and it is unbearable!
In order to grab more wealth, get more cultivation resources, and revive the reputation of the Liu family, he established the White Coat Society and stretched out his hand to the market!
Liu Muzhi took a deep breath.
He's already made up his mind.
The Liu family's plan to unify the rivers and lakes of Yanping City, and then control the entire world's rivers and lakes, must not be terminated, let alone given up!
"Order, the White Clothes Society will suspend all operations tonight, and all the Liu Clan cultivators will withdraw, cutting off all contacts between the Liu Clan and the White Clothes Society! At the same time, inform the Goshawk Gang that the plan to attack Yipinlou will be postponed for three days, and after three days, the offensive will start tonight!"
Liu Muzhi's eyes were like electricity, and he didn't mean to discuss it with everyone anymore, and directly issued the order of the head of the family, "In addition, send someone to contact Sanqing Sword, and we will hire all their Yuan Shen Realm masters in Yanping City according to the market price, and we don't ask them to fight, but within ten days, none of them can go out!"
"Third, in the past three days, the Liu family and the Baiyi Society will make every effort to investigate and monitor Yipinlou to see if they have dealings with the Zhao family!
After the three orders were finished, Liu Muzhi closed his eyes, waved his hand, and motioned for the elders to disperse and immediately carry out their orders, without any more opinions.
"Obey the order of the family master!" The elders clenched their fists to receive the order, and even the great elder who was determined to stop attacking Yipinlou did not say a word. If Yipinlou really had secret dealings with the Zhao family, three days would be enough to find out the clues.
After everyone dispersed, Liu Muzhi was still closing his eyes and meditating, trying to check and fill in the gaps.
In all fairness, he didn't think that Zhao Xuanji's case of protecting Feixue Tower for the Duwei Mansion today was because he knew about Liu's scheme, which didn't make any sense at all. He didn't think that Yipinlou had collusion with the Zhao family, and if there were, the Liu family and the Baiyi Society would not have been aware of it before.
But in any case, Zhao Xuanji saved the case for the Governor's Mansion today, and although his behavior has a reasonable explanation, it is indeed abnormal.
It is related to the future of the family, and in order to make sure that everything is safe, Liu Muzhi made the most conservative arrangement. At the same time, the plan was postponed by only three days. If no abnormalities are detected within these three days, then the operation continues, and if anomalies are found, then another thing to say.
After a full meal and a full meal, the guys from Yipinlou came to remove the dishes and wine jugs and served hot tea.
Zhao Ning and Wei Wuxian are both young people, in fact, they don't have the habit of drinking tea, and they haven't even touched the tea bowl - even though Zhao Ning has experience in his previous life, ten years of conquest and killing still make him more accustomed to drinking.
"It's not early, Zhao Gongzi and Wei Gongzi think that if the white clothes will go out with the goshawk gang, when will it be?" Hu Honglian took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.
Zhao Ning glanced at Wei Wuxian and motioned for him to talk to Hu Honglian, who just made eye contact with Hu Honglian, then blushed with shame, and looked away, as if admiring the room furnishings, "It's possible before dawn, considering that you have to leave time for battle, it will definitely not exceed three watches." ”
Hu Honglian covered his mouth with a handkerchief and giggled: "When Gongzi Wei talks to the slave family, why don't you look at the slave family? Is the slave family ugly and can't get into the eyes of Wei Gongzi?"
Wei Wuxian stood up suddenly, his hands swinging like fans, his head shaking like a rattle, "No, no, absolutely not......!
Speaking of this, seeing Hu Honglian's misty peach blossom eyes looking at him without blinking, as if his veins were affectionate, his slightly raised red lips were charming, and the color was charming and moving, Wei Wuxian only felt that his heart was beating like a drum and breathing hard, and his mind became blank, and he forgot what he was going to say, staring at each other in a daze with his mouth open.
Zhao Ning shook his head and smiled bitterly, feeling speechless. In front of Hu Honglian, a vixen-like existence, Wei Wuxian was just a chick, and he was casually manipulated to death. If you don't know how to retreat when you know that it is difficult, I am afraid that you will have endless hardships in the future.
After Su Yeqing was amused by Wei Wuxian's stupid appearance, Zhao Ning suggested that everyone go to the roof to blow the wind, but he really didn't want Wei Wuxian to be at a loss in front of Hu Honglian.
"Brother Ning, did I lose face just now?" Before going out, Wei Wuxian grabbed Zhao Ning, his forehead was still sweating, and he didn't care about wiping it, so he asked very nervously.
Zhao Ning patted him on the shoulder, sighed and went out first.
When he arrived at the dark roof, Zhao Ning stood against the wind, overlooking the lively street market with lights and traffic in his hands, watching the pedestrians rubbing shoulders like water, although there were many emotions and thousands of words in his chest, his eyes gradually calmed down, and his thinking slowly converged.
As time passed, the Zhao clan and the cultivators of Yipinlou continued to approach from everywhere and report to them the real-time movements everywhere.
At that time, the number of pedestrians on the streets decreased, the cars and horses became sparse, and the crowds that had been lively and dense before, like the sea water at low tide, disappeared back into the sea of houses.
At the next moment, Zhao Ning suddenly spoke up, and his tone was firm: "Order all teams to attack immediately and attack the various halls of the White Clothes Society and the Goshawk Gang!
Wei Wuxian's strategy for dealing with Liu's immobility was actually very simple: take the initiative. It's just that there is a lot of preparation for it. For example, in order to grasp the movements of the White Coat Society and the Goshawk Gang in a timely manner, judge the intentions of the other party, and prevent unexpected situations, they have sent a large number of cultivators to monitor the other party's hall.
For Yipinlou, the location of the White Coat Club and the Goshawk Gang is not a secret.
They are all gangs in Yanping City, if they don't even know the location of other people's halls, it would be a joke, after all, the gangs in the market are not the strongholds of the enemy's secret agents, and concealment is not so important. If the White Clothes Society didn't know about the various halls of Yipinlou, they wouldn't be able to launch tonight's offensive.
Now it's just now, the distance is three days, and there is still a period of time, according to the previous discussion, everyone should wait until the time of the child, to make sure that the other party will not move, and their own ambush is useless, then they will choose to take the initiative to attack.
But now, no one has this doubt.
The cultivators who had just come to report had already made it very clear that people began to evacuate one after another from the various halls of the White Coat Society and the Goshawk Gang. There are still many people who are dressed up in disguise, and they are heading towards the various halls of Yipinlou, and there are even those who go to the Sanqing Sword stronghold and the direction of the Zhenguo Mansion!
These news were enough to make Zhao Ning and the others realize that the Liu family had given up tonight's operation, and they also sent spies to monitor and investigate the movements of Yipinlou and the Zhao family, and to contact Sanqingjian!
