In front of 'Xuanyuan Juyong Village', Lin Han looked at the village.
The defenses were good, with many modern defensive ideas, but it was only a stockade, and its defenses were limited. If they stormed, his 10,000-man Flying Cavalry Battalion could capture it.
The bandits in the village were facing a formidable enemy.
"Excuse me, sir, what brings you here?" Xuanyuan Xiaohui climbed up the village wall and shouted loudly.
Lin Han ignored him and turned to ask Tian Feng.
"Yuan Hao, this village has long been located on the flank of Juyong Pass. It's likely the Xuanyuan Merchants Guild is harboring bandits. If we allow them to grow, they'll eventually become a cancer. Do you have any plans to destroy the village?"
When Tian Feng heard that this was the place where the Xuanyuan Guild was harboring enemies, he understood.
No wonder the common people have no way to survive, but the bandits here are safe and sound. It turns out that there is a chamber of commerce behind the scenes supporting the bandits.
"My lord, I looked at the terrain here when I came. This village is built on the mountain, which makes it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although they have fewer people than us, it would be unwise to attack them by force. We can take them by strategy."
"How to outsmart them?"
"Water attack."
"Water attack?"
Lin Han took the map and looked at the location of "Xuanyuan Juyong Village". There was a river passing by, and "Xuanyuan Juyong Village" was in the valley downstream of the river. His eyes lit up.
"It's early spring now, with spring rains and snowmelt, and the water is plentiful. We only need to block the flow upstream with logs and rocks, and when the water is full, we can drop them, and the valley will be flooded and destroyed without a fight. When this fort was built, they should have considered easy access to water, allowing the water to flow through. This incident has become their death warrant."
"good."
Lin Han immediately ordered Xu Chu to lead two thousand soldiers to the upstream to cut down trees and move rocks to block the flow of water.
The rest of the troops were stationed in the plain area in front of the village.
The newcomers did not attack, but instead a team split up and left, which gave Xuanyuan Xiaohui a very bad feeling.
"You watch here. If anything happens, notify me immediately and I'll contact the president."
Xuanyuan Xiaohui left in a hurry.
Juyongzhai was an important stronghold of the Xuanyuan Guild in Shanggu County. Losing it meant losing control of the western part of Youzhou.
Some of the Xuanyuan Guild’s supplies in western Youzhou are hidden here, which is no small matter.
There are tens of thousands of soldiers attacking Juyongzhai?
After hearing Xuanyuan Xiaohui's report, Ji Xuanyuan came out of the tower of [Beacon Fire to Play with the Princes].
Juyongguan is a strategic location. That is why he made Juyongzhai one of the key development locations. Some of Youzhou’s supplies were stored there, and they were safe even during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
"Isn't there a Xianbei rebellion in Youzhou? Where did these troops come from?"
"I don't know. I asked them, but they didn't answer. I sent spies out to investigate, but they haven't returned yet. The invaders are well-armed and aggressive. They are now stationed outside the village. A part of the troops split off and their whereabouts are unknown."
"Where's the flag? Whose is it?"
"Xiao."
"Xiao?"
Ji Xuanyuan suddenly thought of something and had a bold guess, his expression changed slightly.
"Go and ask if the person coming is Xiao Hange."
"Xiao Hange?"
Xuanyuan Xiaohui was shocked when he heard the name.
The previous feud between Xuanyuan Guild and Xiao Hange on the forum was well known. The other party had issued a "warning" not to let him meet anyone from Xuanyuan Guild.
Several days passed without any movement from the other side. People in the Xuanyuan Guild were still mocking Xiao Hange's troops in Yangzhou, saying that they were out of reach of them. It was just pure empty talk.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Hange's troops appeared in Youzhou.
While Xuanyuan Xiaohui was in contact with Ji Xuanyuan, the spy received the intelligence report.
The person who came was Xiao Hange.
"President, what should we do now?" Xuanyuan Xiaohui asked worriedly.
"Wait a minute, I'll ask Xiao Hange."
Ji Xuanyuan frowned and sent a message to Xiao Hange.
I waited for a few minutes, but there was no response.
"He didn't reply, which means he's serious. You lead the troops to hold the line, and I'll find a way to get support. Keep an eye out for updates."
After interrupting contact with Xuanyuan Xiaohui, Ji Xuanyuan opened the core internal group of the Xuanyuan Guild.
"Who has troops in the Youzhou area now?"
"Boss, what's the matter?"
"Xiao Hange led his troops to Juyong Pass in Youzhou. Xiao Hui was besieged by him. That stronghold might be in danger." Ji Xuanyuan said truthfully, "He hasn't attacked yet. There are 6,000 soldiers in the stronghold. If we defend it, we should be able to hold out for a while. Support is no problem."
"I have five hundred men in Changping."
"I have a thousand soldiers in Zhulu."
"There are eight hundred people in the city."
"There are 1,500 outside Yuyang."
"Tang County has a thousand soldiers and horses."
"Anything else?"
"Jizhou is heading south to Tangyou, it's a bit far, do you want to be pulled over?"
“…”
"The troops in Jizhou do not need to be moved. All the soldiers in all the counties and prefectures west of Yuyang in Youzhou should be transferred to Juyong. Give the command to Axin, and the others should obey Axin's command and deployment. The battle damage and losses will be reimbursed by the guild. The sooner the support is provided, the better." Ji Xuanyuan said.
"President, I'm afraid something is wrong." In the core group, Ashin, who was named by Ji Xuanyuan, suddenly sent a message.
"What's the matter?"
"The intelligence Xiao Hui provided indicates that Xiao Hange was ordered by the Emperor to suppress the Xianbei bandits. He's clearly justified in suppressing the bandits. If the Lord players support him, he'll fabricate a case of rebellion, accusing us of colluding with the bandits. All the Lord players in the Xuanyuan Merchant Guild will suffer, and the Xuanyuan Merchant Guild will be in serious trouble."
Ji Xuanyuan was silent for a moment.
"What about the bandit tribes in other counties of Youzhou?"
"The situation in Yuyang is complicated. Zhang Chun seems to be causing trouble. The Wuhuan soldiers led by Gongsun Zan have dispersed here. It's very chaotic here now. We don't recommend any rash actions in Yuyang Village, otherwise the village may be destroyed."
