At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 746
It is good to have a sense of justice, but it should not be flooded. The most important thing is to do what you can, not to swell your face and make yourself fat. The reason why Gao Bufan decided to take action to eliminate the bandits on Longhuya In order to do good deeds, you are also earning fame and popularity for yourself.

Although Qi Wang Gao Changqing is famous all over the world, the traffic in Bashu area is blocked, and the ordinary people here don't know much about him. It is estimated that the bandit brothers on Longhuya are more famous than him. He had lost battles under this pair of bandit brothers.

It is conceivable that once Gao Bufan exterminates the gang of bandits on Longhuya, he will definitely become famous and win the hearts of the local people. With this momentum, he will visit Xiao Yu, the prefect of Berkshire, and the probability of success will naturally increase. bigger.

In addition, Miao Bing is too poor. Poverty is the root of all evil and chaos. If Miao Bing is very rich, I believe they will not develop the bad habit of stealing and taking advantage of petty things. The Miao soldiers treated the poor and sick.

The most effective way to make quick money is undoubtedly robbing, robbing the people is definitely not enough, then go to rob bandits and bandits, and the bandits on Longhuya are obviously the best target, once they are famous enough, Secondly, the distance is also short, so who will be the one to take the knife if they are not used?

As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles.Since he wanted to use Longhuya for surgery, he had to find out the basic situation in advance, so Gao Bufan found out the location of Longhuya, and then stretched out his body and went to inspect the terrain alone.

As the thief was coming to pick up the bride tomorrow, time was too tight, so Gao Bufan didn't take him with him, but drove alone. With his footsteps, he could come back before dark to make arrangements.

It is said that this dragon and tiger cliff is about forty miles away from here to the south, facing the Wujiang River, and the other three sides are cliffs, the terrain is extremely dangerous, the original name is Gou Diaoya, a very simple and down-to-earth name, but it is a mixed bag. After the brothers Jiang Long and Guo Shanhu took over the place, they felt that the name was too imposing and did not match the prestige of their brothers, so they decided to change the name. It has a personality, but the confidant of my younger brother Guoshanhu is not happy, because it is too unfair to only have the word "dragon" without the word "hu".

Fortunately, Hunjianglong has a cultural person who has studied for several years. This man thinks that even if he is a bandit, he should not be too vulgar, otherwise he will be looked down upon by officers and soldiers. He suggested that the word that is too masculine should be removed, and it should be called dragon. Huya is both domineering and decent, and there are both dragons and tigers, fair and just.

After Hunjianglong and Guoshanhu brothers heard this, they felt that scholars were still educated, so Yin Ran accepted the suggestion. From then on, Gou Diaoya changed its name to Longhuya.

Let's get down to business, let's say that Gao Bufan stretched out his body and ran towards the direction of Longhuya, and arrived there in half an hour.

At this time the sun had already slanted to the west, and I saw a high cliff standing on the east bank of the Wujiang River. The shape of the mountain bag is full of trees. When combined, it really is full of masculinity.

However, Gao Bufan is a serious person, he was only a little surprised by the strange shape of this dragon and tiger cliff, so he turned his attention to the climbing passage.

This Dragon and Tiger Cliff is estimated to be 80 meters high. It is towering and towering. The front is bare and there are no trees. The "zigzag" shape can only be used by two people to walk side by side.

Seeing such a situation, Gao Bufan couldn't help but take a breath, and finally understood why Xiao Yu lost his troops here in the first place, and left it alone after attacking once. Indeed, this place is too difficult to attack, as long as there is food on the cliff, there is no need to fight. It may be attacked head-on.

Looking at the situation at the bottom of the cliff, there is the deep and fast-flowing Wujiang River under the cliff, and even the boats are difficult to stop, and it is impossible to try to surround the village with troops. We can only block the river upstream and downstream, but this is not very meaningful. , and I don't know what's going on behind the cliff. If there is a small road to leave, it would be a waste of effort to block the river.

Gao Bufan took advantage of the grass and miscellaneous trees by the river to hide his figure, and approached Longhu Cliff little by little, and finally saw a water village under the cliff, inside the water village was a dock, and rows of boats of all sizes were parked. If you want to climb the cliff, you have to break through this water village first.

Gao Bufan observed carefully for a while, and found that the gang of bandits had built the water village quite solidly. To enter and leave the water village, there were actually three rows of fences, and each row of fences had movable doors, which could be pulled up by cables. When entering and exiting, the gate is raised on one side and then lowered on the other side, which is very strict.

What surprised Gao Bufan the most was that there were two archery towers built in the water village, one on the left and one on the right, and you can vaguely see the minions carrying bows and arrows walking back and forth on the archery towers.

"Hey, Brother Longhu has some knowledge. The cottage is well built. Could it be that he has been a soldier?" Gao Bufan thought to himself.

It really made him guess. Hunjianglong and Guoshanhu were both soldiers of the army. They had been in the barracks for nearly ten years, and then they quit. A little bit of military literacy.

Gao Bufan pondered for a moment, then quietly went around behind Longhuya.

On both sides of Dragon and Tiger Cliff, there is a hill surrounded by overgrown weeds and dense trees, there is no way to go, but this is not difficult for a master like Gao Bufan, as long as he jumps and climbs flexibly among the trees, he is like a monkey Tree after tree, and soon went around to the back of Longhu Cliff.

The back of Longhuya is also steep, but not as smooth as the front, and there is no place to hold hands. There are some vines and sparse shrubs growing on the back of the cliff. It is absolutely possible to climb up, and those Miao soldiers can do it with some tools.

When Gao Bufan saw this, he knew what was going on, quietly left Longhuya, stretched out his body and hurried back to join the large army.

When Gao Bufan returned to the original place, the sun had just set and the twilight was dim.Everyone was very happy to see Gao Bufan come back, and gathered around to inquire about the situation. However, when Gao Bufan described the dangerous terrain of Longhuya, Rao Mengzhu and A Qing both changed their expressions and began to hesitate.

Gao Bufan smiled lightly: "Are you scared?"

A Qing and Meng Zi are both people who can't be provoked, and they almost said in unison: "I'm afraid of a fart!!"

Auntie is obviously the most sensible, and she said decisively: "Longhuya is too dangerous, a strong attack is definitely not an option, but it's just death in vain, if King Qi doesn't have a proper plan, I refuse to carry out this operation."

Gao Bufan was not angry, but showed a hint of approval. What he needs most now is a general who can think independently, not a reckless man who can only follow blindly, so he calmly smiled and said: "This king will definitely not let everyone go to die. Yes, this king will never fight an unsure battle."

Gao Bufan waved his hands as he spoke, and with the afterglow of the setting sun, he quickly drew a simple figure of Dragon and Tiger Cliff on the ground with a branch, and then said seriously: "Look, everyone, this is Dragon and Tiger Cliff, this is Wujiang River, and you can enter and leave the city. We need to use a boat, so the thief must have come to pick up the bride by boat, and this is the nearest berth to the village..."

Gao Bufan explained his plan in detail. After hearing this, Meng Zi and A Qing immediately geared up and were eager to try it. Even the cautious A concubine remained silent, as if they were weighing the pros and cons of Gao Bufan's strategy.

Gao Bufan didn't press, but looked at Auntie with encouraging eyes. The latter's face was slightly hot, and he mustered up his courage and said: "His Royal Highness Qi's strategy is certainly good, but the risk of attacking Longhuya is still quite high. The subordinates have a plan to reduce the risk, and if it goes well, they can even take down Longhuya without any effort."

A trace of surprise flashed in Gao Bufan's eyes, and he said happily, "The plan will be released?"

Auntie said: "I have prepared a kind of medicine, people and animals will fall into a coma after drinking it, if I pretend to be a bride and let the bandits go to the cliff, and then find a way to put the medicine into their drinking water..."

"This plan won't work!" Gao Bufan resolutely refused without waiting for Auntie to finish speaking.

Ah Mi dissatisfied and said: "Why not?"

Gao Bufan said solemnly: "First, there are 600 people on Longhuya. The amount of medicine on your body can poison 600 people? Second, if you pretend to be a bride, Sandi must cooperate with the villagers. It's easy to say, but those villagers are terrified of thieves, so they may not be willing to take risks to cooperate with us. It would be even worse if someone secretly reported to the thieves; Clumsy, it will be too late to regret.”

A Qing quickly said: "Yes, yes, yes, sister, don't be stupid, bandits can't be suppressed at most, don't let yourself be involved."

Auntie was so embarrassed that her face turned red and then pale, she clasped her fists and said in shame: "What King Qi said is very true, my subordinates didn't think carefully."

Gao Bufan smiled and said: "It's okay, everyone has their own ideas and the right to express their opinions. Auntie, it's very rare for you to actively make suggestions. It's just that you lack some experience. The generals under my command are like clouds. You If you are willing to learn with an open mind in the future, you will definitely benefit a lot.”

Auntie was both excited and yearning after hearing the words. This sixteen or seventeen-year-old Miao girl obviously realized that a brand new stage was in front of her. If she grasped it well, her life would be another magnificent scene. She hurriedly said: "Thank you King Qi for your support."

Ah Qing and Meng Zi couldn't help showing envy, they expressed that they would follow Gao Bufan to go to Sichuan to fight in the battlefield, good men have ambitions in all directions, although the two of them are a bit grumpy, they still have ambitions.

Gao Bufan smiled and said, "Don't worry, you all have a chance."

Ah Qing and Meng Zi were overjoyed, and worked energetically according to the platoon's hands.

Gao Bufan smiled, and seriously warned Auntie: "Auntie, poison and voodoo are just small ways, and they are good for dealing with a few people, but they are not very effective on a battlefield with thousands of troops. And it’s also inferior, so try to rely less on these things in the future.”

Auntie nodded, and said a little embarrassedly: "This subordinate knows... Oh, this subordinate has been educated!"

If Miko and Qingruo succeed in persuading the Miao chiefs in Banan to join them, Gao Bufan intends to form a Miao army (mountain army), and Ah Yu is cautious and clever, and she is also a Miao, so she will undoubtedly lead the Miao army. Therefore, Gao Bufan thinks that she can be trained well. Maybe this woman will become Gao Qi's most famous female general in the future, and she will not even lose to Li Tang's Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning.
