Chapter 285: Decapitation
Yu Ren glanced at Yu Yuqian, and then said, "My method is actually not difficult, but it is not simple.
At present, although we have a large number of people, our weapons and equipment are far from those of the officers and men, and our team has not been trained. It is almost impossible to defeat these 1,000 well-trained and well-equipped officers and soldiers. Since we are not sure of a frontal battle, we can only make surprise moves. ”
Yu Ren paused for a moment after speaking, and bent down to pick up the head of the wildflower on the ground that he had just chopped off.
Several people looked at him together and listened to his analysis, and Sun Youcai and Huang Yudie, who originally didn't trust him, also began to have some expectations.
The three of them looked at him quietly and did not speak.
Yu Ren raised the flower head he picked up in his hand. "My solution is actually very simple, and that is - decapitation."
The three of them listened with wide eyes, but they didn't quite understand.
"What is a decapitation operation?" Yu Yuqian asked.
"It's to capture the thief and capture the king. It's just that what we want to use at the moment is unlikely, so we can only use killing! When Yu Ren said this, a gleam suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"You mean to kill the general who led the team?" Sun Youcai asked.
Yu Ren nodded.
"Not bad. As long as we can kill the generals they lead, they will be left without a leader. At that point, it will be much easier to defeat them. Sun Youcai seems to have realized the way.
Huang Yudie glared at Yu Ren, still speaking unpolitely. "It's easy to say. I know that, too! But what do we do? Do you want to rush down the mountain with a group of people to find someone? Don't say that we can't rush down the mountain, but we rush down the mountain, how do we know where their lord is? Even if we know the location of their main general, how can we fight into layers of siege and finally kill their main general? ”
Yu Ren didn't answer Huang Yudie, he felt that this woman seemed to have a prejudice against herself, and she always had to oppose anything she said. Yu Ren glanced at Sun Youcai. "Brother Sun is a native of Jinan, and he has been planning for a long time, so he must know these officers and soldiers very well! Brother Sun, does he know who is the chief officer and soldier who is leading the team this time? ”
"I didn't see it too clearly. It was getting late when we got here. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out. Sun Youcai said.
"It's fine. Tomorrow we will be prepared to defend tightly. In case the officers and soldiers forcibly attack the mountain. while secretly inquiring into who their Lord will be. Then figure out how to get rid of him. When Yu Ren said this, he involuntarily revealed his natural leadership temperament and commanded everyone.
Although he was commanded by an unknown outsider, the three of them did not object. Huang Yudie glared at Yu Ren, but did not speak.
The next morning, before dawn, several people got up. They were afraid that the officers and soldiers would launch a strong attack on them.
However, throughout the morning, there was no movement among the officers and men.
"It seems that Brother Shen's worries have unfortunately been true." Sun Youcai said.
"Have you found out who is the leader of the officers and soldiers this time?" Yu Ren asked.
"It was the dog prefect surnamed Yao who personally led the team. The person in charge of leading the troops was Liu Changle, the garrison general of Jinan City. Sun Youcai said.
"You take a group of people tomorrow and go to the crossing at the bottom of the mountain to shout, and say that you want Liu Shen to come and talk to him about surrender. Then I lay in ambush in the woods beside me, and you try to lead him to my hiding place. The closer you lead, the better. Then I shot him on the spot.
You remember, let the brothers secretly prepare for the general attack beforehand. As soon as I succeed here, you will immediately lead your brothers down the mountain. When the time comes, as soon as the officers and soldiers are killed, there will inevitably be chaos in the army. We can catch the officers and soldiers by surprise. ”
"Are you sure?" Sun Youcai asked. "If Liu Changle comes to see me, he will inevitably be draped all over his body, and it is not easy to shoot him with one arrow! How are your archery skills? ”
Yu Ren picked up the longbow he picked up in Jinan City on his back and tried it. "I'm only 30% sure. If you have a better shooter here, it's best to leave this task to him. ”
Sun Youcai shook his head. "Most of our incense smellers are low-class people, and there are also some small officials and merchants, but there are no people in the army. I'm afraid that no one will use arrows. After speaking, Sun Youcai glanced at Huang Yudie on the side, which obviously meant to ask how her and Yu Yuqian's archery skills were.
Huang Yudie said, "Most of the people in my sect are from the rivers and lakes, and if you want to talk about using hidden weapons, there are still a few." But when it comes to archery......"
Yu Ren sighed, "So be it!" I'll take care of it! With that, he stretched out his hand and drew an arrow and shot it at a large tree a hundred paces away. The arrow hit the heart of the tree and penetrated deep into the trunk of the tree.
Sun Youcai saw that Yu Ren's arrow shot cleanly, accurately and powerfully, which added some confidence. "Okay, I'll go get ready."
Early the next morning, Yu Ren carried his quiver on his back early and went down the mountain with his longbow. He'd already chosen a place. There is a mountain stream across the key pass of the mountain road to the north of this mountain, but the distance is very close. Moreover, the dense forest here is extremely dense and condescending, which is an excellent place for ambushes and assassinations. Yu Ren estimated that as long as Sun Youcai was able to lure people to the preset assassination place and create sufficient conditions for him, his success rate could be increased by at least two percent.
Not long after, Sun Youcai appeared at the mountain pass with ordinary leaders. Then someone went down the mountain to deliver the message. After that, there was a long wait......
Yu Ren hid quietly in a big tree, and he didn't know how long time had passed. The place where he was hiding was a big tree, and he could neither see the sun in the sky nor move his body casually.
In such a long wait, Yu Ren saw that the shadows of the trees on the ground gradually became shorter and smaller, and then slowly grew and larger.
Finally, there was the sound of horses' hooves from the bottom of the mountain. Yu Ren hurriedly lifted his spirits.
In the distance, I saw a cavalry of 100 people coming to Sun Youcai's approach. The leader was a general wearing armor all over his body, and from Yu Ren's position, only his side face could be seen.
Sun Youcai saw that the other party finally came, and did not step forward to greet him, but stood in place and waited. His position is facing away from Yu Ren, which means that if the prey they chose today arrives, according to normal thinking, he should be facing Yu Ren. In this way, Yu Ren can have the opportunity to seal his throat with an arrow while he is fully armed.
The general took his men and rode his horse to Sun Youcai. The two didn't know what they were talking about. Yu Ren was too far away to hear the conversation between the two. But he had already prepared everything, and his bow had already been drawn, just waiting for Sun Youcai's signal.
However, this Sun Youcai didn't know what the reason was, but he didn't send a signal for a long time. This made Yu Ren's hand pulling the bow for a long time a little unbearable. This bow was originally a strong bow, although Yu Ren was born with divine power, but after a long time, he was still a little unbearable.
Yu Ren scolded this Sun Youcai in his heart, I don't know how many times. But it didn't work.
The two in the distance kept talking, as if they were bargaining.
Yu Ren's eyes stared at Sun Youcai's right hand, trying his best to keep his mood calm and breathing steadily. His hand was also raised quietly, and the target was the officer and soldier general opposite.
Time is the best weapon to test a person's patience. After a long and anxious wait, Yu Ren began to feel that his hands were gradually exhausted, but Sun Youcai was still talking to the man, as if he had forgotten their prior agreement.
Just as Yu Ren was about to put his hand down, Sun Youcai suddenly raised his right hand and put it on top of his head.
This is exactly the signal they agreed to release the arrow. Yu Ren shot this arrow without hesitation. The arrow was aimed at the throat of the other party.
On the mountain road, the officers and soldiers fell down. All of a sudden, there was a mess on the mountain road, and the commander of the officers and soldiers was originally sitting on a horse. After the arrow, he could no longer sit still, and fell from his horse. The 200 officers and men who came with them saw that their commander was suddenly attacked by cold arrows, and they all surrounded him at once.
Sun Youcai had quickly retreated a few dozen meters back at this time and left the mountain road. When those cavalrymen saw that their leaders were hit by arrows, how could they suffer a loss, and dozens of people had already rushed towards Sun Youcai and his gang on horseback.
But Sun Youcai had already prepared, and he took his men with him, and suddenly got into the dense forest on the other side. Although the cavalry of the officers and soldiers was fast, they could not enter the forest.
At this moment, a signal arrow sounded in the sky. This is the signal of the general attack that they have agreed on in advance.
