In fact, Wu Jiang had his own plans in his heart, and he felt ashamed of being a fence-sitter.
"General, if it really doesn't work, we can take people out and get her sister back."
Liu Feng immediately rolled his eyes.
"You really have a plan. You want me to lead a team of cavalry to the border of Yanzhou, and then, under the protection of the Tiandihui and the Northern Barbarian armies, snatch the Saint back?"
"And then we have to lead the Saint Girl on a non-stop march of thousands of miles, and finally return to the village safely. Do you think such a thing is possible?"
"Will the location of the village be exposed to the Northern Barbarians?"
Liu Feng shook his head and rejected Wu Jiang's unrealistic idea.
"How about this, you go first. You don't have to sacrifice too much, just your looks will do."
Comparing these two plans, anyone can see that sacrificing one's appearance is definitely easier.
"General, it's not that I'm unwilling to do this kind of thing."
"General, you know in your heart that even without the Saint Maiden as an intermediary, the cooperation between the Huchiwu tribe of the Northern Barbarians and the Tiandihui is inevitable."
"As long as the Tiandihui still wants to compete for supremacy, they must control Yanzhou. With Yanzhou, they can openly oppose the imperial court."
"Although they have been operating for many years, their military strength is very limited. It is inevitable that they will rely on the power of the Northern Barbarians."
"It's the general trend."
"If you choose to cooperate with the Tiandihui, you will save the Saint Girl, but Youzhou will become part of the Tiandihui. At that time, you will become a traitor."
"I don't think it's worth it to do this."
"So, I think the best way is to take it back."
Wu Jiang spoke with confidence.
Liu Feng looked at Wu Jiang, and the serious look of this guy made him laugh.
"You really can't bear to give up this life."
The implication is that the kidnapping does not care about Liu Feng's life or death.
The most important thing right now is to destroy their cooperation, whether it is to let Wu Jiang go or to get the person back, there is only one purpose.
It's just that the specific methods are different.
Fundamentally speaking, it is a question of choosing between the Tiandihui and the emperor.
"Okay, that's it. I understand."
Liu Feng said lightly.
Wu Jiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
That’s good now, I don’t have to sacrifice my looks.
"Actually, it's not impossible to just rob people."
"If planned properly, it could cause a significant shock to both the Tiandihui and the Northern Barbarians, and even achieve unexpected results."
"Um?"
"General, what should we do?"
Wu Jiang had only used sophistry, but he didn't expect Liu Feng actually had a plan.
"As for the method? That's simple. Lure the enemy into a trap, then catch the turtle in the trap, and finally escape."
Liu Feng smiled mysteriously.
Wu Jiang naturally did not understand the strategies in Sun Tzu's Art of War.
After returning to the village, they continued their reproductive activities that night.
Starting from the next day, many small vendors moved to Zhengde County one after another.
Because Lin Xiaoxi has been busy with the relocation of all the villagers in Shanggou Village these days, the people who came were arranged at once.
The villagers of Shanggou Village, who were originally reluctant to move away, immediately became restless when they saw this situation.
Originally they thought that the two villages had been merged, and Liu Feng was now the county magistrate appointed by the emperor himself.
As locals, even if they don’t move now, there will always be a place for them in the commercial street.
You can move there anytime and anywhere.
But from the moment people from outside came in, they felt a sense of crisis.
Because the houses inside are limited and occupied by outsiders, they have nowhere else to go.
Liu Feng took advantage of this trend and released his investment announcement.
Wang Dingliu sent out his scouts to post notices in the streets and alleys of various counties.
Liu Feng had already given them the opportunity before.
If they don't want to move away now, then the prosperity and money-making opportunities on the commercial street in the future will have nothing to do with them.
In the evening, after finishing these tasks, Liu Feng selected twelve elite cavalrymen.
He also brought along several of his generals, including Liu Lang, Linghu Chongchongshan, and guards Dazhuang, Wang Dingliu, and others.
Most of the people in charge of the village had left at once, so all matters, big and small, were left to Linghu Yuanshan and Wu Jiang.
Linghu Yuanshan will be in charge of the defense, and the general also needs Chen Buzhi, Zhai Shanchuan and others.
Wujiang handles government affairs.
Finally, considering that the person they were going to bring back this time was a woman, in case there were any inconveniences, they also brought Wu Xiangyue, who had excellent martial arts skills.
When we finally set out, there were a total of twenty-five people including the cavalry.
They have only one goal.
Get that woman back and destroy the cooperation between Tiandihui and Beiman.
In fact, from the perspective of topography, most of Yanzhou is separated from the northern barbarians by a mountain.
There was only one place for communication between the Tiandihui and the Northern Barbarians, between the imperial court and the Manchus, or for the common people to leave the country.
This place is actually not far from Youzhou, which is why the northern barbarians did not attack Yanzhou but attacked Youzhou.
Because of the terrain of Youzhou, there is only this one pass that Yanzhou can pass through. It is a place where one man can guard the pass, and it is difficult for the northern barbarians to break through.
Now, the northern barbarian army outside the border is stationed in this place.
