This is the main residence of the Fandi family, and almost all family members are here. The entire main house is a small castle, with an average wall height of twelve meters, and the four sides are about 380 meters, with six towers on each side. The combatants inside the castle claimed to be five hundred, but in fact they hid their strength. Based on our observations, we concluded that there were at least eight hundred combatants.
Tang Ping nodded in approval. They set up camp twenty kilometers away from Fan's family. In just one day, the people below basically got a clear picture of Fan's family's general situation.
"Where are their equipment?" Tang Ping asked.
When Lao Cui heard Tang Ping's question, he smiled contemptuously: "Sir, what equipment do they have there? In addition to a scimitar or a spear for each person, there were about thirty archers in total. As for the armor, they only had Some of the leaders are wearing them."
No wonder he looked down on the other party. Not to mention now, even before they met Tang Ping, their equipment couldn't be so bad.
But this is just a local family, not even a small force.
"Old Cui, don't take it lightly. You must know that my goal is to build our reputation while also ensuring that we have zero casualties."
"I understand, sir."
Only Wang Xuance was stunned for a while while listening. He was a civil servant in the past. Although he knew that all the most elite warriors from the Tang Dynasty came this time, there were only two hundred of them, while the other party not only had eight hundred, but also In the castle, the difference in strength between the attacking and defending sides is four times. Even though the equipment gap between the two sides is huge, zero casualties are required. How is this possible?
It's just that Tang Ping has the final say on this mission. Even if he has doubts in his heart, he won't speak out.
"We will conduct reconnaissance tonight to find out the locations of all the opponent's sentries, the time of defense changes, the strength of the vigil troops, and all other information."
"I understand, is there anything else? Master."
"Go and spread the news again, saying that our Rakshasa bandit group is going to plunder the Mordi family."
"Spread the news?" Lao Cui was stunned: "Then the other party has become more defensive?"
"It won't be too strict. After all, we are a little-known bandit group. The head of the Mortal Family is very proud and arrogant. If he strictly guards against our little bandit group that he has never heard of, he will feel very shameless. of."
Tang Ping's decision was not a slap on the forehead. If he wanted to spread the name of his bandit group as much as possible, he would inform the other party in advance before taking action.
Then it will definitely have a more shocking effect after success. As for whether Fan's family will strengthen its defense, he doesn't really care.
Because from all aspects, they were overwhelming the opponent, and they had various reconnaissance methods on drones, he didn't think the opponent could set any traps that threatened his side.
Lao Cui nodded, then looked at Tang Ping and said, "But Master, how are we going to spread this news?"
Tang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he was the only one who could communicate with the other party in the local dialect, and it was not easy to enter the Fandi family's territory, and he didn't look like a local.
"Sir, leave it to me. You write the news on paper, and I will shoot them at the city gate with an arrow." Xue Rengui came up with an idea.
Tang Ping's eyes lit up, "This is a good move. It feels like the thief cartoons I read when I was a kid. I told you in front of you that I was coming, but you couldn't do anything to stop me."
The dialects in different parts of Tianzhu are somewhat different, but the characters are still unified. Wang Xuance wrote the content on a piece of paper according to Tang Ping's wishes, and then handed it to Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui directly mounted his horse and headed towards the castle of the Fandi family. When he reached a stone's throw in front of him, he swept the ground with an arrow and ran away without looking back.
Fan's family can gain a foothold in the local area, and naturally has good relations with the surrounding forces. I have never encountered such a direct provocation.
The guard guarding the door did not dare to neglect, he pulled out the arrow and ran towards the family meeting hall.
The patriarch of the Fandi family and others are
Fortunately, when the meeting hall was discussing whether to join Alonashun, I saw guards hurriedly running in.
"Clan leader, someone shot this at the city gate just now."
"Bring it up!" The head of the Mordi family touched his beard with one hand and took the piece of cloth with the other. His beard was also the part he was most satisfied with.
As a result, when he saw the content on the cloth, he used a little force with his hand and actually pinched off two beards.
"How dare you, where did this little thief come from? You actually don't take our Fan family seriously? Have you ever heard of the Raksha Bandits?"
"Rakshasa? No!"
"There are bandits all over the place now, but they are basically just fighting on a small scale. How dare a group of bandits dare to come to our Mortal family to seek death?"
"I haven't heard of any bandit groups nearby. Could it be that they came from somewhere else?"
"Master, this is an extraordinary time, please be more prepared."
Everything was said immediately. The head of the Fandi family looked at the two beards on his fingers, shook his head and said: "Why strengthen our defenses? A bandit group that we have never heard of said that they are coming to rob, so we will If we want to strengthen our defenses, then one will come tomorrow, and one will come the day after tomorrow, wouldn’t it be endless?”
"What the head of the family said makes sense. I think the other party who dares to directly issue such a challenge is probably just trying to gain some benefits from our Fan family."
"This small group of bandits may not even be able to enter our castle."
Several nearby forces did not dare to attack their Fan family easily. After all, a castle plus 800 defenders would require at least about 3,000 troops to attack it, and this was with siege equipment.
Now that a bandit group that I have never heard of is coming to rob, do you really think that the ten-meter-high city wall that their family spent decades building is fake?
Without siege equipment, they did not believe that anyone could attack their family.
Nowadays, the slightly larger armed forces have actually been absorbed by various forces. Only century-old families like them can remain independent because of their good relations with surrounding parties.
Therefore, it is impossible for them to say that a huge bandit group will emerge.
Except for the two old men who said they should strengthen their defense, no one else took it seriously.
So just as Tang Ping expected, although Fan's family received the news that they were going to rob, they didn't take it to heart at all.
They didn't even keep it secret at all, and it didn't take most of a day for the entire family to know.
And other family members must not panic. You said that a certain force is coming to attack the family. Maybe they will still be afraid of a small bandit group? Are you kidding me?
On the night Tang Ping and the others explained it, several guards patrolling the city wall were still joking about it.
