Yuanzhuang is located about sixty miles southeast of Tonghe City. It is near the territory of Shangqing's Yu family. It is only separated from the Yu family's territory by a river. It belongs to an enclave of Fu Meng's family. There is a small wharf that can be used for loading and unloading. Goods can be transported to Tonghe City or sold to Shangqing Yu's family.
When the sun was about to set, Meng Yang led his team to Yuanzhuang. The Meng family had already cooked hot water, soup, tea and dinner, leveled the land, and piled wood. After the army arrived, they only needed to erect tents and set up camp. Come down.
According to the plan agreed upon in Tonghe City, this will be an important village. The army can take boats from here, sweep away the deer bandits harassing Tonghe Prefecture through waterways, and connect the besieged city villages and villages. In case of any disharmony, You can also retreat by boat to avoid a head-on confrontation with the main force of the deer bandits.
The deer bandits are famous for their field battles, and I have never heard of any navy troops.
Despite the intense anger among the people in the city, everyone in this group felt guilty if they faced the Lu Family Army face to face.
General Pan Fu had a head-on battle with the Lu Family Army. Tonghe Prefecture had already lost its main force. Now, with this small number of troops to defend the city, it would be no problem to send some troops out of the city. However, I wanted to rely on this small number of troops to fight the Lu Family Army in a decisive battle. , that would be courting death.
The family's request was not to repel the main force of the Lu Family Army, but to allow the Lu Family Army's branches to be sent out to harass the local area. They had some scruples and did not dare to besiege the villages without restraint.
The sunset was like blood, and the meals were ready. The villagers of Yuanzhuang divided and packaged the meals. When all the soldiers arrived, they distributed them together and let all the soldiers start eating together.
Yu Xiaowei asked Lei Dao Meng Yang to go up to the hills on the east side of Yuanzhuang to observe the mountainous landforms. After the soldiers finished eating, they were able to set up camp.
This is a must-have collar for every general to set up a camp, and it is also the difference between Yeluzi and regular military strategists. As long as you can convince Meng Yang, the thunder sword, through professional knowledge, it should not be difficult to get the command.
The hills are not high, only about thirty feet high. They are surrounded by flat rivers. Standing on the hills, you can have an unobstructed view within a radius of ten miles.
"Mr. Meng, please take a look. There is a river to the north of Yuanzhuang, a mausoleum to the east, and flat plains on both sides of the southwest. Therefore, there is a need to pay attention to this. It needs to be adapted to local conditions and cannot be rigid." Yu Xiaowei pointed at the country with his horsewhip, acting like a veteran general in the army. Point out the rookie look.
"Brother Yu, you are so impressed, but you don't know how to adapt to local conditions?" Lei Dao Meng Yang didn't take it seriously and nodded in agreement.
It was just that the setting sun was setting behind him, making Lei Dao Meng Yang's pupils disappear into the shadows, making him look a bit eerie.
Seeing Meng Yang, the Thunder Sword, lying low and small, Yu Xiaowei was quite happy.
Lei Dao Mengyang is the leader of the White Dao in the southern Chu Kingdom, and is also a famous martial arts powerhouse. Although the so-called White Dao is nothing more than that in the eyes of a captain like him who holds military power, Lei Dao Mengyang has a very high reputation in the world. This is not false.
If you can really overpower him, it will be very honorable to tell him.
"The hilly terrain here is extremely important. You have a broad view from a high position and can control the overall situation. You need to station 300 elite troops. Moreover, the slope here is gentle, and the cavalry charge from a high position is very powerful. Therefore, there must be at least one group of cavalry among the 300 elite troops. If you encounter thieves, If you attack from your back and order your cavalry to charge down, you will be able to defeat the enemy."
Occupying high ground is common sense in Anzha Village, but there are also particularities in how to occupy high ground. If you blindly occupy high ground, be surrounded by people, and cut off the water source, you are asking for death. Only when the horns are aligned and the appropriate number of troops are stationed can you It's the right way - how many troops are stationed and how to deploy them, this is what laymen don't know.
Yu Xiaowei was confident, Lei Dao Meng Yang nodded repeatedly.
The fifteen soldiers beside Yu Xiaowei looked at Yourong Yan, and the three confidants beside Lei Dao Meng Yang also had smiles on their faces.
"As for -" Lieutenant Yu pointed his riding whip downwards, and was about to say how the ground below should use the corner positions of Yuanzhuang and Qiu Ling to coordinate their placement, when he suddenly discovered that there were soldiers all over the ground below. , staggered and fell down.
"What's going on - is it you!?" Yu Xiaowei turned pale with shock, then suddenly reacted and looked at Thunder Blade Meng Yang beside him with an expression of disbelief.
There was obviously no foreign enemy attacking, so why did the soldiers suddenly fall in pieces?
Only by tampering with the food can the soldiers who have just eaten fall down one after another.
This Yuanzhuang is the territory of the Meng family. It would be impossible to administer drugs on such a scale without the leadership of the Meng family.
And even if it is the cheapest anesthetic, if it is enough for three thousand people, it is still a lot of money. How can someone other than a nobleman like the Meng family, who is also a wealthy man in the world, get such an amount together?
"It's me." Lei Dao Mengyang nodded and admitted.
"How dare you-" Yu Xiaowei was mid-sentence when he suddenly stopped.
It’s obvious that they’ve already done it, but they’re still asking if they dare?
"Fate plays tricks on people, and Meng has to do the same." Lei Dao Meng Yang sighed softly, turned around, and looked at the sunset on the horizon.
The sun is setting.
A ray of sword light flew up and touched the center of Yu Xiaowei's eyebrows lightly. There was a faint red spot between Yu Xiaowei's eyebrows. His eyes widened and he fell down.
The three brothers brought by Thunder Sword Meng Yang are all fourth-level masters, and the divine ape Liu Jie is only one step away from entering the innate world - these people are actually preparing to take action in the army, but they are surrounded by legions. It can also resist for a moment or three, enough to persist in drug-induced attacks.
Such masters suddenly attack and injure people. Although the soldiers around Yu Xiaowei are considered good masters, they failed to form a fighting formation and did not hold the weapons in their hands. How could they escape with their lives?
In just the blink of an eye, more than a dozen personal guards lost their lives.
"Send a signal and ask the general's men to come over and replace the uniformed men. We will attack tomorrow and capture Tonghe City! As long as we can capture Tonghe City, we will all be the founding heroes of the country under Lu Bo. The general has always rewarded me generously and he will not treat me badly." Wait for brother." Lei Dao Meng Yang said in a deep voice.
The Meng family's fortune was not glorious.
Mengyang followed the path of black and white, repeatedly intercepting and killing nobles in the name of Yang Meng with the Demon Sword, and then used the name of Meng Yang with the Thunder Sword to solve the case and pursue the murderer. With the support of a large number of local nobles, the Meng family has made its fortune to this point - the Thunder Sword. Meng Yang and Demon Sword Yang Meng came together as one person.
However, they have a deep connection with Jiang Xingde of Nanhe Prefecture - Jiang Xingde has long been against his will and is connecting people everywhere.
Now that Jiang Xingde is rebelling, the Meng family is like a grasshopper on the same line. If they don't rebel, they will have to rebel. Otherwise, as long as the Jiang family reveals this, the Meng family will have to live with it.
"Whoosh-pop!"
A firework soared into the sky, blooming in various colors. Although it was not as eye-catching as at night under the setting sun, it was clearly visible to the ambush soldiers who had been paying attention here.
In the woods more than ten miles away, groups of people marched out. Although they did not raise any flags, just by looking at their clothing and weapons, they knew they were soldiers under Lu Wu's command.
