Chapter 18 Replay
The old man's surname is Wang. At present, he only has a little grandson left in the family. One of his two sons was dragged to be a butcher by Xiao. Last year, he died in a fire with Zhao Datong. The second son went out to do business the year before last. As a result, he met the official army and never came back. It is said that he was killed by the official army and cut off his head. Take it back to ask for work. The grandson in the family is in front of the second son. After the son is gone, the daughter-in-law also went back to her mother's house, leaving only Wang Laohan and his little grandson.
Seeing that he couldn't survive anyway, Mr. Wang wanted to fight. If this group of foreign poles could destroy the butcher Xiao, he would not ask for any wealth. At least he would ask for a way to live for his little grandson and leave a root for their Lao Wang's family.
Lotus Mountain is not like what ordinary people see. There is only one road in front of the mountain that leads to the mountain. When the old man is young, he often picks some herbs on the back mountain of Lianhua Mountain, and then goes to the city to sell it to medicine shops to subsidize his family. Therefore, he is very familiar with the terrain in this area, and he just knows that one can climb up the mountain from the back mountain. On the top of the path, since he made up his mind, he pressed all the treasures on Xing Tianjun.
Hearing Wang Laohan say that there is a dense path to go up the mountain behind the mountain, Xiao Tianjian and several of his men suddenly came to the spirit, because after seeing Xiao Butcher's cottage, they all know that if they attack head-on, although with their troops and weapons, they may not be unable to hit the mountain, the result of that can only be a If you win, the loss will definitely be very big.
In the future, they will face not only Xiao Butcher, a mountain thief, but also Zhao Datong and Feng Tiancheng. These old books can't be filled in on Lianhua Mountain in any case, so this is the reason why Xiao Tianjian personally took people around Lianhua Mountain to inquire about the news.
Hard work pays off. This time, they really met an old man who knew the situation of Lianhua Mountain. In this way, it would be much easier to attack Lianhua Mountain.
At the same time, in order to win the support of the local people for Xing Tianjun, at least these people are not allowed to help Xiao butchers. As soon as Xing Tianjun arrived here, he issued a military order, borrowed Yue Fei's military order to Yue's army, and asked the Xing Tianjun's troops to "freeze to death without tear down the house, starve to death and not to fight!" Otherwise, it will definitely be engaged in military law, and Xiao Tianjian also took out some money and gave it to his generals who went out to work, so that they must pay for everything that is taken by the local people at the price, and they must not forcibly seize the people's things.
In this way, although the local people are still afraid of such an unknown pole, they see that these new strongmen are very obedient and will never harm them. They also hear that they are going to attack Lianhua Mountain and destroy the Xiao butcher. Everyone hate the Xiao butcher, so many people began to secretly fight with Xing Tianjun. There is something to communicate with each other.
After the scouts under Shi Ran's command arrived in the Lianhua Mountain area, they were scattered out and set up road cards on the road leading to Feng Tiancheng and Zhao Datong to monitor the situation there.
Because Yan Chongxi accidentally captured a subordinate of Xiao Changshan, Xiao Tianjian learned that Xiao Changshan was going to invite two other large poles in Yangcheng to help the battle, so after thinking about it, he decided to deal with these two poles first, and then seek to attack Lianhua Mountain after retreating them.
Otherwise, once they are hit back and forth by the other two poles during the attack, the battle will be difficult to fight.
Therefore, when Xing Tianjun completed the assembly in Lianhua Mountain, Xiao Tianjian sent Yan Chongxi to lead his troops to the foot of the mountain to scold and ask Xiao Changshan to fight down the mountain, but he did not take the initiative to attack the mountain gate, while the main force was blocked by Xiao Tianjian on the open ground at the foot of the mountain and only waited for the two poles to come.
Zhao Datong and Feng Tiancheng did not disappoint Xiao Tianjian. The next morning after the Xing Tianjun completed the deployment, they led a group of subordinates to the Lianhua Mountain area and rushed to the place where the Xing Tianjun was stationed.
The scouts kept passing on the situation of the enemy to the barracks. Xiao Tianjian and his subordinates gathered around a local terrain sketch to discuss how to deal with the poles that came to Xiao butcher.
"There are not many people on these two roads. The man surnamed Feng only brought 500 people, and the man surnamed Zhao also brought more than 800 people. With our strength, it is not a problem to eat them. The problem now is that it is better to leave all the men they brought here in this battle. When we beat Lianhua Mountain and destroy Xiao Tu. After the household, it is more convenient to clean them up.
So what we are going to fight in this battle is annihilation, not the defeat. Have you heard it clearly?
Xiao Tianjian talked about several generals under the enemy's opponent and put forward his requirements for this battle.
Zhao Er donkey and others nodded to show their understanding, but Zhao Er donkey also raised the difficulties: "It should not be a problem for us to deal with these people and defeat them, but I'm afraid it will not be easy to eat them in one bite. They are far more familiar with the terrain than us in the local area and want to fight them in an ambush. I'm afraid it's not easy!"
"That makes sense. This is also what I have been thinking about today! That's why I let everyone think of a way to see how to eat these two poles in one bite!" Xiao Tianjian touched the beard on his chin and nodded.
Fu Deming smiled and said, "This matter is easy to handle. Do you still remember the battle of Dashiqiao? It's okay to use it again!"
After hearing this, everyone immediately nodded one after another. Feng Gouzi said, "This is a way!" These two poles don't know our bottom line. They are also local snakes. If you give them a sweet taste first, you may really be able to eat these guys in one bite!"
Xiao Tianjian also nodded repeatedly. The idea Fu Deming gave him was very suitable for him, and at present, this method may be the only effective method, so even if he nodded and agreed with Fu Deming's idea.
There is a bleakness everywhere in the mountains in winter. Only in some farmland, there are still some winter wheat with some green, and the world is quiet, but this tranquility was soon broken. There was a shout of killing on the road in the mountain. Soon, a team of Xing Tianjun's troops appeared on the mountain pass, one by one. They all looked panicked. Everyone ran and threw away their armor. The road behind them was full of all kinds of things, that is, cloth and some copper money. Of course, they would drop a few silver coins. Naturally, some people even left knives and guns on the road.
And behind them, they shouted shockingly and rushed out of a large group of people with knives, guns, swords and halberds. These people were all murderous, and their mouths were also scolding and chasing the members of the Xing Tianjun running away in front. From time to time, some people He bent down and picked up the property abandoned by the Xingtian army from the ground. From time to time, he would fight with each other because he found the silver on the ground.
