"And Xiangniu Town is also very rich in resources. In addition to the mines, there are also rubber trees and redwood."
"If Erma didn't have the strength, not to mention the government forces, the recently rising Sun Clan Army alone would be able to devour him without leaving a trace."
"Yes, this person is very troublesome." Kun Ma nodded: "But he is too close to us."
"The two sides' territories border each other, and there are no natural barriers such as mountains to defend."
"Friction is always going to happen. If it continues, a fight will break out sooner or later. Why don't we strike first?"
"It is necessary to strike first, but we still need to plan carefully how to do it." Old Wen smiled faintly.
"Mr. Wen already has a solution?" Kun Ma smiled.
Although he had not been with Lao Wen for a long time, the more he got along with Lao Wen, the more frightened he felt.
Old Wen is a man who is good at planning and seems to know everything.
In recent military operations, Old Wen has demonstrated his amazing talent.
Kunma was shocked but also glad that he had not misjudged the person.
He was also glad that he had made a wise decision.
If he really confronted Old Wen head-on, the few men he had were not enough to face Old Wen.
For Lao Wen, the advantages in numbers and weapons are nothing.
Old Wen's smile showed that he already had a way to deal with Erma.
"Warfare is the art of deception, and speed is of the essence on the battlefield." Old Wen took out a small flag and planted it on the territory of Xiangniu Town.
"Do you know what is the most important weapon that determines your victory on the battlefield?"
"Numbers, excellent weapons, and a sober commander," Kunma replied.
"These are the least important things." Old Wen pointed to a scale on the table and said, "The scales of war are always fair."
“The greatest trump card, the most powerful weapon, is often an ant that determines the balance of victory.”
"An excellent special operations team is like an ant on the scale. Its presence will tilt the scale to one side."
"Are you going to find mercenaries? Kill the enemy commander by surprise?" Kun Ma was not stupid. He quickly understood Lao Wen's intention.
"It costs a lot of money to hire mercenaries. I don't think it's necessary." Old Wen said with a smile.
"But the decapitation operation is imperative."
"Could it be... that you are going to assassinate the other party yourself?" Kunma was surprised.
Erma is quite powerful and his guards are very tight.
Trying to decapitate him is a risky move.
In case of failure, the entire Xiaomo Town will fall into a passive state.
So he thought Old Wen must be crazy.
"The decapitation operation will be carried out on time at dawn tonight." Old Wen turned around and said, "I will personally lead my men into the enemy camp."
"I'll go with you." Kunma was a little excited. He had never done such an action before.
"No, you need to stay in Xiaomo Town and provide me with logistics and support. In half an hour, I will deploy a specific action plan."
Lao Wen patted Kun Ma's shoulder and said, "Go and prepare well."
"Okay." Kunma nodded.
Five young, smart and physically fit guys were picked out.
Old Wen spread out a map, which was the map of Xiangniu Town.
The sheriff is in the leadership mansion in the center of town.
Old Wen immediately began to deploy the battle plan.
From personnel and equipment, to logistical support, to time, route, ambush, backup plan, etc., the planning is clear.
Kunma, who was standing by, sounded a little frightened.
He suddenly realized that his former boss Xhaka died inexplicably. Does this have anything to do with Old Wen?
"Do you all understand your respective tasks?" After finishing the planning, Lao Wen glanced around.
"Understood." Everyone answered in unison.
Old Wen nodded with satisfaction. His recent training had indeed produced some results.
The ones in front of me have all been to the battlefield, but their military qualities are relatively poor.
After his training, their strength is much stronger than that of the government forces.
Even though Erma's guards are tight, we must take his head tonight.
"We'll be moving at midnight." Old Wen checked his watch. "Kun Ma, you'll be here as backup, ready to provide support at any time."
"I understand." Kunma put away his shock and nodded heavily.
At night, the entire Jinsanpo area was shrouded in heavy rain.
In the very center of Xiangniu Town, a very luxurious European-style building is brightly lit.
This place can be regarded as the most luxurious of the four major towns in Jinsanpo.
This place is the famous Erma Lingshi Mansion.
Erma is a person who has studied abroad and received a good Western education. He is also different from other leaders of Jin Sanpo.
He is brave and resourceful, and has a unique understanding of the situation.
So when the leaders of Jinsanpo were scrambling for the best flat land to grow poppies, he set his sights on those barren mountains that no one wanted and were overgrown with weeds.
Because these mountains are very desolate, it takes a huge amount of manpower and material resources to open up and cultivate them.
So other lords rushed to grow poppies on the flat land, while he formed a scientific expedition team to go into the mountains for investigation.
Sure enough, in addition to a small silver mine, he also discovered the largest ruby mining area in the Jinsanpo area.
With this wealth, he became a famous figure in the Jinsanpo area.
He also spent a lot of money to buy the title of sheriff from the local government.
From then on, he recruited soldiers and laid a solid foundation for himself.
But his ambition is not limited to these. As resources are increasingly consumed, he has to turn his attention elsewhere.
For example, Xiaomo Town.
Xiaomo Town has changed hands frequently in recent times. After Zaka died, several of his subordinates fought each other.
Our strength has been greatly weakened, and now is the best time to attack.
But it is said that there is a man named Lao Wen who is very powerful. It was his sudden appearance that ended the inner half of Xiaomo Town ahead of time.
Erma was lost in thought as he looked at the map hanging on the wall and the location of Xiaomo Town circled in red.
"Sir." An adjutant came in and brought coffee.
Erma took the coffee and took a sip. He pointed to the sandbox he had just made and said, "Look, how's the sandbox?"
"Commander's military strength is very strong. I'm afraid no one in the entire Jinsanpo area can independently complete such a sophisticated sand table."
The adjutant's tone was somewhat flattering.
"Haha, no matter how well the sand table is made, it's useless. These things need to be used in actual combat."
Erma enjoyed it very much. He smiled and walked to the front of the sand table.
He put down his coffee and placed his hands on the sand table. "Xiaomo Town has vast land and a sparse population, and the soil is extremely suitable for growing poppies."
