Chapter XVII: Assassination

Helian Tieshu's study, in my impression, was not something that a peripheral member like himself could enter.

Today is a strange day.

"Li Yanzong has seen the prince."

"You don't have to be formal." Helian Tieshu leaned back in his chair with a big grin, without any of the prince's shelves, and pointed to the map on the table, "You know more about the Central Plains, let's see if there are any mistakes or omissions in this plan." Hemu, tell Captain Li about it. ”

As a prince's casual behavior, this Hemu military advisor was a little one-sided, first answering the order, and then turning his head to greet Murong Fu, and doing enough rules and etiquette, and then began to tell.

This scene is like a drama, and Murong Fu is happy to see it.

After listening to it for a long time, I finally figured out this battle plan for attacking the Great Song Dynasty.

The troops were divided into three routes, one route was sent to Didao from Xiliangfu, and then turned to the west to threaten Xining, and the other road went straight to Huanqing Road from Xingqing Mansion, the imperial city of Xixia, and was entangled with Huaide, Zhenrong and other armies stationed in the Great Song Dynasty.

However, these two armies were quite numerous, but they were only smoke to attract the troops of the Great Song Dynasty.

The real purpose is to cover the third road troops, the number is relatively small, but it is the elite, from the foot of Yinzhou City at this time, first break Yongle City, and then look at Yan'an Mansion, directly take Hedong Road.

In addition to the Huanqing Road area involving the sight of the Great Song Dynasty, the east and west armies can threaten the Great Song Dynasty border army, the war together, Tubo and the Great Liao will inevitably be mobilized for defense, then the Great Song Dynasty border army can not easily move, the Western Xia only need to avoid the border army, with the method of encroachment to consume the Hedong troops, the Hetao area into the Western Xia territory.

Murong Fu was secretly speechless.

In general, this is actually a surprise attack plan, using the autumn wind every year in the past as a cover, and directly turning it into an expansion war, and the faster you advance the troops, the greater the benefits. In order to attack the city before the Great Song Dynasty reacted, Yipintang was used as a special soldier, relying on these masters to sneak into the city and seize the city gate, and if necessary, they could also act as a vanguard.

At this time, Murong Fu also understood Helian Tieshu's purpose for finding him, the general direction had been decided, there was nothing to say, and the details could be improved by brainstorming.

This is also reasonable, after all, the predecessor has shown its ability to arrange troops.

Murong Fu was a little prepared for this, and stepped forward to read the typed draft.

"Lord Wang, Yongle Town was breached ten years ago, and the terrain has fatal flaws, so it is not difficult to take it. However, if you want to take Hedong, I am afraid that the troops are not enough to hold it, but it is better to turn north after breaking Yongle, and march to the back road of Linzhou. ”

flickered, pointing to the map and talking.

But in fact, if Western Xia wants to attack the Song Dynasty, this so-called natural danger is indeed advantageous to take, but it is not very important.

The two countries border the terrain with many plains, there is no shortage of roads to enter the army, most of them are not dangerous to defend, the Great Song Dynasty to guard the Western Xia, at the cost of hundreds of miles deep military towns, nearly 700,000 soldiers.

The Western Xia fought an autumn wind every year, and the large plains where the cavalry ran made the defense extremely difficult, and there was always room for intersperse, which was too annoying and difficult to defend against.

But now that I want to expand my territory, I'm a little blind. That population alone is not enough to sustain such a big war, let alone the residual capacity for development.

It is reasonable and not to stand out if there is such a dangerous thing in Linzhou, and it is useless if there is no big mistake.

Military Master Hemu interjected on the side, "There is some truth in Captain Li's words, but it can be ......."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a "bang", the window of the study exploded, and two men in black crashed into the house and flew straight to Helian Tieshu.

Everyone failed to react, Helian Tieshu was slapped by the palm, but it was not fatal, in a panic, he pulled the Hemu military division next to him to block in front of him, and the second black-clothed man's killing move was a little slower and half a beat, pinched Hemu's neck, and crushed his throat bone with a blow, killing him on the spot.

Helian Tieshu escaped, but was frightened.

Several people in the room were shocked by the sudden change, but at this time they also woke up and entangled themselves together.

When the two men in black broke in, they were rediscovered by Murong and knew that they were members of the beggar gang.

Sensing the identities of the two in an instant, it's not that there are many reactions, but sudden changes, and it's instinct to be stunned. It was only when the two of them broke through the window that the rudimentary system suddenly appeared.

[Mission: Exploration] has been completed, and the reward [Clutch Suppression (Beginner)] is being distributed......

These words flashed in front of his eyes, and Murong Fu had more memories of nearly three years of demon clutch cultivation in his mind, and he seemed to have become a teenager, practicing martial arts and listening to Buddhism with a great monk every day.

Although it was slow to say, it was actually just a blink of an eye, and when I came back to my senses, I saw Hemu dead in front of my eyes.

The feeling of shoehorning the memory is indescribable, in short, it is not so easy to bear, and the pain in the temples is unbearable.

Mixed in a group of masters to fish, the system prompt continues.

【Mission: Help】

[When the beggar gang receives your news, they will definitely send someone to investigate in Yinzhou City and decide whether to notify the Song army or assassinate the Western Xia general Helian Tieshu. As a celebrity in the Central Plains, it is incumbent on him to help the beggars. 】

【Conditions】Burn the grain and grass in Yinzhou City, assassinate Helian Tieshu, and help the beggars to help the righteous escape

【Reward】Cultivation: King Kong is not bad (5 years)

【Failure Penalty】Reduced Cultivation: Northern Darkness True Qi (2nd year)

……

Murong Fu didn't have time to think at all, endured the feeling of dizziness and swelling, and instinctively parried the two.

The guards outside heard the movement in the house, and rushed in, surrounding the two masters of the beggar gang. Yue Laosan and Yun Zhonghe, who were the four evildoers, also killed them.

"Capture them alive for me!"

Helian Tieshu escaped death and was furious.

"Yes!"

The soldiers cooperated with the two villains and fought with the beggar gang masters.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two of them made a few false moves to force everyone back, and fled reflexively.

Helian Tieshu was furious and shouted, "How can this be true! Pursue! Catch these thieves alive! ”

It was only at this time that the swelling pain in Murong Fu's temples eased slightly, and he was a step too late, so he simply stopped chasing after him, and followed the soldiers to guard Helian Tieshu's side.

In the short time that Helian Tieshu was armored, Murong Fu secretly pondered his own system.

The message was sent a month ago, and when the three-day task period passed, the system task turned gray, with no completion prompt and no failure penalty.

Now I happened to encounter the assassination of the beggar gang, so I settled it and gave a follow-up task.

Secretly speculate that either the system encourages hands-on, or the completion and settlement of the system's related tasks are based on their own contact cognition.

Murong Fu prefers the latter, otherwise once the three days arrive, the mission can be directly judged to have failed.

Moreover, the new tasks that appear cannot be completed at all unless they spend a month secretly arranging them and cooperating with the beggars.

There is also a hint in the mission introduction, informing Song Jun to assassinate him, if he goes to the beggar gang, with Nan Murong's name, he may be able to make an impact and make the task easier to complete.

Thinking of this, Murong Fu's eyes were deep and deep, and he muttered to himself, "It's a little complicated......"
