Chapter 186 The den of thieves is hard to leave(1/2)
In order to the so-called expedition against Wagang, Chen Yingliang, who was on the pretext of sufficient excuses, spent a lot of money on this war, prepared enough food and grass for two months, prepared a large amount of military supplies, and prepared ninety regiments to dispatch more than 18,000 yuan.
Thousands of troops head north, and at the same time, Changsun Wuji, who was in charge of confidential affairs, brought all the gunpowder weapons and a large number of special medicines that Xu Minlian organized the people to plant. He tried his best to fight this battle, which was a battle to suppress bandits.
Preparing for a strategic decisive battle, the importance of this war was so high that even Chen Yingliang's civil and military confidants were a little confused and did not understand why Chen Yingliang cared about this bandit suppression battle so much.
Of course, a lot of time is wasted on such a large-scale preparation. Fortunately, what Chen Yingliang is most afraid of is wasting time. At the same time, in order to give his colleagues an explanation and to lead the army westward and northward in order to legally and reasonably, Chen Yingliang is not allowed to write to Zhang Xutuo and Yang Wang.
Explain them the tactics of conquering Wagang Village to surround the village and attacking aid, let them know the reasons and purpose of sending troops to Wagang, and also ask them to help them spread false news, saying that they sent troops north to fight for the purpose of expedition in the areas of Huang and Jiyang.
The King of Thief was responsible for preventing the Wagang Army from finding out the news and transferring family, women and children in advance, resulting in Chen Yingliang's team losing the effect of attacking and rescuing.
Of course, Chen Yingliang actually didn't care whether he could surround the family and family of the Wagang Army. He could even successfully lure the main force of the Wagang Army back to rescue the nest. Chen Yingliang didn't care at all. What Chen Yingliang needed was a white horse crossing in the Yellow River.
An excuse for a long-term stay in the neighborhood.
Chen Yingliang also underestimated his colleagues and enemies a little. After receiving his letter of notice, Yang Wang, the commander of Liangjun, who was frustrated by the Wagang Army, breathed a sigh of relief. In addition to scolding his unfilial nephew, he finally wanted to climb out of the turtle.
Outside the shell, there is a smile that followed Chen Yingliang's request, and let the civil and military departments spread everywhere Chen Yingliang sent troops to fight against the foreign bandits, and helped his unfilial nephew implement a tactical plan to encircle the village and fight aid. He had no doubt about Chen Yingliang's intentions. However, Zhang Xutuo
After receiving Chen Yingliang's letter, he suddenly became suspicious.
"Send troops to Dongjun to surround the village to fight aid?" Looking through Chen Yingliang's letter, Zhang Xutuo was full of doubts and recalled: "I remember that after the war in Teng County ended, that boy once said that if you want to deal with the Wagang thief.
, don't attack Wagang Village. That broken village has no use. Wagang thieves can give up at any time. Even if they set fire, it is useless. Let's go ahead and Wagang thieves will be able to revive there. I suggest that I
We are making an effort to wipe out the Wagang thieves. But when this kid sends troops, why did he stare at Wagang Village as soon as he takes action?"
"Ambassador, can't Chen Yingliang be playing any tricks again?" Jia Wuben, the Qi County Eagle Killer General who returned to Zhang Xutuo from the Liaodong battlefield after the war in Teng County, spoke and said cautiously: "Although the last general is still there, he said with caution:
I haven't seen Chen Yingliang, but I have heard for a long time that he is a trick, cunning, and if he doesn't take action, he will definitely use fraud. Wagang Thief Village is located in Dongjun, and Wagang Thief has been active in our jurisdiction. Chen Yingliang
Let the thieves in his jurisdiction ignore them and take the initiative to run into our jurisdiction to implement the tactic of siege and attack the aid. I am afraid there is a lot of articles in it, so please ask the ambassador to investigate it in detail."
Considering the unscrupulous character of Chen Sangliang, Zhang Xutuo nodded immediately and agreed with Jia Wuben's speculation and worries. After careful calculation for a long time, Zhang Xutuo felt a little awakened.
He said to himself: "I shouldn't have been fooled by Chen Yingliang? He opposed me from attacking Wagang Village. Could it be that he wanted to stay and fight him?"
"Stay and fight by yourself? Why?" Jia Wuben and the generals of Qi County were very curious.
"It's very simple. The water in the hamlet of Wagang thieves must be very good." Zhang Xutuo analyzed casually: "In the twelve counties of Henan Road, the longest-term rebellion is the Wagang thief. Although I also have the same hamlet as Wagang.
The thieves fought several times and defeated the Wagang thieves every time, but they never hurt their vitality. For various reasons, they were unable to seize the Wagang Village at the thief's nest. The Wagang thieves were in trouble.
Tongji Canal, which has been more than four years, has been specializing in robbing oil and has definitely accumulated a large amount of gold, silver and wealth in their thieves' nest. The rich oil and water in the thieves' nest is definitely the leader of the thieves' nest in the twelfth counties."
After analyzing this casually, Zhang Xutuo slapped the table in front of him and shouted: "It's absolutely impossible to be wrong. I almost got fooled. At that time, I asked him for a time. His army was very tired and could not send troops to fight, so he opposed me.
He directly attacked the Wagang Thief Village and deliberately instigated me to go to Tongjiqu to fight to find the main force of Wagang Thief. His purpose must be to use me to eliminate the main force of Wagang Thief Village. Then, after his rest, his team can immediately attack the Wagang Thief Village.
The rich savings of the Wagang thief for many years
"Traitor" Qi County Sui generals roared angrily. Luo Shixin, who had to cut off his nose for rewards every time he killed an enemy, was even more furious and shouted: "It must be that way Chen Yingliang is like this, he just wants to pick the cheap ones.
Don’t like the ambassadors who work hard, we can’t let Chen Yingliang take over our oil and water. We must send troops to take down Wagang Village first and check all the robbers there.”
As soon as Luo Shixin said this, all the generals of the Sui army in Qi County, including Mulan, nodded repeatedly and agreed. Zhang Xutuo's deputy, Jia Wuben, also smiled and said, "Ambassador, Shixin's words are reasonable, since Chen Yingliang
Let’s be cheated first, I’m sorry to our Qi County friendly troops first, so don’t be polite to him. Just tell him directly that Wagang Village is in our jurisdiction and we don’t need him to help send troops, so we can eliminate and eliminate it ourselves.”
Zhang Xutuo was a little moved and almost wanted to accept Jia Wuben's suggestion to completely kill Chen Yingliang's dream. Fortunately, Zhang Xutuo was a person who put state affairs first. After a little calculation, he quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no
Although Chen Xiaozi's intentions are not good, his tactics of surrounding the village and attacking aid are indeed feasible. If successful, we can eliminate the Wagang thieves who have suffered more than four years in Tongjiqu. This is also for the national affairs.
You can't stop him."
"Ambassador, we can also go to Wagang Zhe Village to surround the village and fight for help by ourselves? Why do we have to use him to help?" Luo Shixin protested.
"Do we have kid Chen?" Zhang Xutuo asked with a smile, and said, "I heard that the thieves in Wagang are flexible in combat, cunning and cunning, and are especially good at setting up ambush, cheating, and surrounding the points and attacking aid is a tactic that needs to be adapted to local conditions. We may not necessarily
I have been able to play with the Wagang thief, and only if the boy named Chen goes there can be sure to play this tactic."
"What should I do if the oil and water in the Varang thief's nest?" Luo Shixin asked pitifully.
"What's the hurry for you, a little money fan? I didn't say he could just take it alone?" Zhang Xutuo smiled and scolded his beloved general, and ordered with a relaxed expression: "Immediately prepare to go to Wagang Village, prepare more food, grass and military supplies, and report to Chen Yingliang at all times.
We will take the opportunity to move forward again and strive to arrive at Wagang Thief Village at the same time with him, so that his dream of taking over the oil and water of Wagang Village alone would be dashed."
The Sui army generals cheered and sang their promises, Zhang Xutuo also smiled and said to himself: "Boy, do you want to take advantage of me? Dreaming"
At the same time, the false news that Chen Yingliang was preparing to send troops to fight against Wang Dangren was also spread to another rebel army in Jiyin County through various channels. After hearing this news, the rebel army was
The leader Wang Bodang breathed a sigh of relief, glad that God blessed him, and Chen Sangliang came to find trouble for Wang Dangren, a neighboring county, and did not come directly for him. At that time, he would just lead the army to escape quickly.
There is no need to worry about being affected by the fish. But after hearing this, Wang Bo was extremely suspicious when he recognized the teacher he had recognized half a year ago.
I believe everyone knows who Wang Bode is, but I still have to talk about it here. It’s not someone else, but our old rival, Chen Sangliang, Chen Xiaozhengtai, Li Mi. He was deliberately taken by Chen Yingliang on the battlefield in Menghaicheng more than a year ago.
After the misrelease, Li Mixi fled to the main activity area of the Wagang Army, and ran between various rebel armies, contributed to the strategy of seizing the world, destroying the heroes and unifying the country. He also met more than once the current leader of the Wagang Army, Zhai.
Although Rang never received Zhai Rang's trust and heavy use, he unexpectedly received the respect and admiration of the small rebel leader Wang Bodang. He was regarded as a teacher by Wang Bodang and naturally became Wang Bodang's think tank military advisor.
"Strike Wang Dangren?" Li Mi was puzzled and said to himself: "What is Wang Dangren? What qualifications are you worthy of Chen Yingliang's little thief sending troops to fight? The three or four thousand thieves under Wang Dangren's command, Chen Yingliang's little thief spitted
If you can drown him, you need to lead the army to fight? Chen Yingliang’s little thief, what medicine can you sell in this gourd?"
"Is it for me?" After thinking about this, Li Mi's heart stormed. She thought that Chen Yingliang was for him, but after careful consideration, Li Mi found that there was absolutely no possibility of this - Chen Yingliang had already made a clear attitude
To fatten yourself and then kill yourself, you can suppress Zhang Xutuo and show his importance and greatness. Now I am neither fat enough nor have any ability to suppress Zhang Xutuo to set off Chen Yingliang. I am Chen Yingliang's real goal.
There may be a possibility, but it must be very slim.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Mi suddenly found something was wrong and hurriedly asked Wang Bodang: "Bodang, Chen Yingliang is about to send troops to fight against Wang Dangren. Where did our spy find out the news? You have asked about this.
No one?"
"Ask." Wang Bodang replied: "Our eyeliner was found in Kaocheng, Liangjun. The local government troops spread all over the place, saying that Chen Yingliang would soon send troops to fight against Wang Dangren, so he had to keep an eye on him.
The movements of Wang Dangren are so as not to run away when he hears the news."
"So why Wang Dangren ran away when he heard the news?" Li Mi was even more confused and said to himself: "Kaocheng is only forty miles away from Waihuang. The local government troops have spread this news. Even Wang Dangren is a fool.
Can you hear the wind? How cunning is Chen Yingliang? How could his actions make such a big mistake and leak so much? Did the Liang County official army accidentally leak the secret, or was it the order to deliberately leak the news?"
"If the news is deliberately leaked, Chen Yingliang's little thief must be to hide his real purpose of sending troops and not beware of his real goal. So, is there any target worthy of Chen Yingliang's little thief taking in Wang Dangren's surroundings?
Next to Dangren, who is qualified to be an opponent of Chen Yingliang's little thief beside me? Who else…?”
"Zhai Rangwagang" Li Mi's mind suddenly flashed through these two words, and all the questions were immediately resolved, because Li Mi knew very well that although there were so many rebels in the areas of Wai Huang and Jiyang, they were as powerful as Chen Yingliang's eyes.
That is, Zhai Rang's Wagang Army team, and when Chen Yingliang deliberately misreleased Li Mi, he also mentioned the Wagang Army team, which further confirmed Li Mi's analysis and judgment.
"Mr., what's wrong with you?" Wang Bodang finally found something wrong and asked Li Mi, whose expression changed rapidly, "You suddenly asked what the news came from? Are you worried about a fraud?"
"Of course there is fraud." Li Mi sneered, and then asked quickly: "Bodang, where are Zhai Rang and others doing activities recently? Is there any way to contact them quickly?"
"There is no way." Wang Bodang shook his head and replied: "The whereabouts of the Wagang Army have always been erratic. You know this. People from all over the world are trying hard to help them hide their actions. If you want to find them, you can only be
By luck.”
Hearing Wang Bodang's answer, Li Mi was stunned again, and then he remembered a big question. The whereabouts of the main force of the Wagang Army, which was deeply supported by the people in the activity, have always been erratic, and Wang Bodang, who is an uprising army.
They have to be found by luck. So what is the confidence in Chen Yingliang hundreds of miles away to find the main force of the Wagang Army? Thinking of this, Li Mi couldn't help but think in his heart: "If I were a little thief Chen Yingliang, what should I do to find the Wagang Army?
The main force? Why am I trying to deliberately spread false news about the fight against Wang Dangren?”
Thinking of this important question, he put himself in his shoes and thought about it carefully. Li Mi quickly smiled again. Not only did he completely confirm that Chen Yingliang's real goal was the Wagang Army, but he also guessed Chen Yingliang's tactics.
It was to surround the site to attack the aid, and suddenly surrounded Wagang Village to use the family and elderly of the Wagang Army as hostages, forcing the main force of the Wagang Army to return to the army for rescue, and then wait for the labor to fight the main force of the Wagang Army.
After figuring this out, Li Mi did not hesitate and immediately wrote a letter, asking the leader who stayed in Wagang Village to explain his analysis and prediction, and suggested that they immediately transfer the families of women, children and valuable items and break them into pieces.
Hiding among the people makes Chen Yingliang unable to turn against the enemy; or just hurry up and ask the main force to return to Wagang Village in advance to strengthen defense, use the natural dangers of Wagang Village to compete with Chen Yingliang. At the same time, Li Mi must not express his opinion on behalf of Wang Bodang,
It is said that if the Wagang army chose to fight to the decisive battle, Wang Bodang army was willing to go north to join forces with the Wagang army to resist Chen Yingliang's attack.
On behalf of Wang Bodang, he must be allowed to read the letter first. After Wang Bodang finished reading the letter, he must be asked whether Li Mi is sure to confirm that Chen Yingliang's goal is Wagang Village. Li Mi also analyzed his ideas in detail.
After giving Wang Bodang listened, Wang Bodang first thought for a moment before saying, "Teacher, your analysis is very reasonable. Students are taught, but the students believe in your analysis and guesses, but Wagang Jun may not believe it.
?If they firmly don’t believe it, what should we do?”
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if they don't believe it." Li Mi replied with a smile: "Of course they believe it now, it doesn't matter if they don't believe it. When Chen Yingliang's little bandits come to Wagang Village, they will understand everything.
.At that time, what we say will be much more important.”
After hearing Li Mi's words, Wang Bodang felt it was reasonable. He did not hesitate. He immediately signed the letter and sent someone to send him to Wagang Village to contact the remaining thief head there. At the same time, he accepted Li Mi's suggestion and sent someone to contact Wang Dangren.
Tell us the news and sell a short favor to Huang Youjun outside the country so that we can work together to cause trouble for Chen Yingliang in the future.
Jiyang is not far from Wagang Village. After only more than a day, Li Mi's letter was delivered to Wagang Village, and to Shan Xiongxin, the general of the Wagang Army who was left behind at the nest at this moment. After reading Li Mi's letter, Shan
Xiongxin was just skeptical, and he was a little reluctant to believe that Chen Yingliang's real goal was the Wagang Village, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, after the early think tank of the Wagang Army, Bing Yuanzhen, read Li Mi's letter carefully, he thought that Li Mi's analysis was very reasonable.
I hurriedly suggested that Shan Xiongxin quickly contact the main force led by Zhai Rang and prepare to return to Wagang Village immediately.
"Do you also think that Chen Yingliang's real target is us?" Shan Xiongxin asked Bing Yuanzhen in surprise, and reminded him: "Brother Bing, this matter is no joke. Let King Zhai return to Wagang Village immediately.
It will not only delay our major event of plundering Tongji Canal to replenish food and grass, but will also immediately expose our main position. At that time, even if Chen Gou Guan’s target is not us, he will really come to our Wagang Village immediately."
"Brother Shan, we can't take risks." Bing Yuanzhen reminded in turn: "If Wang Bodang's analysis is true, Chen Gouguan came to our surroundings under the pretext of conquering Wang Dangren, and suddenly came north to surround us.
Wagang Village, then it will be too late for our main force to return to the aid. At that time, King Zhai will be forced to fight the main force of the official army if he returns to the aid. If we do not return to the aid, our Wagang Village defenders will not be able to block the official army.
If there is any mistake in the attack, it will be difficult for the elderly, weak, women and children in our village to run away."
