"Father, my uncle has so many eyes, he is as cunning as a fox. I think, you
think too much!"
After receiving the news, Mr. Xu was not as excited as Mr. Xu, but rather
calmly messed up.
"You know a hammer!"
Old man Xu was so angry that he kicked his foot towards Boss Xu.
"Those are savages, uncivilized savages. They have always lived in deep
mountains and old forests, and they don't pay much attention to courtesy,
justice and shame."
"What your uncle is doing now, but looking for skin with a tiger."
"Tiger, that is to eat people!"
Father Xu is really worried about the Zhao family.
In the past, he complained about the cold-blooded and cold-hearted people of
the Zhao family, but after learning more and more of the truth back then,
Father Xu understood that his grandfather's family had no choice at all.
"Father, the tiger cannibalize people, it won't be enough if you kill it!"
"Uncle is such a smart person, it's impossible not to prevent it, you, ninety-
nine percent of it is unreasonable worry!"
Boss Xu still firmly believes that Zhao Bingzhen has made arrangements, and it
is impossible to imagine the situation of the savages backlash.
Father Xu looked at his eldest son coldly. He didn't know that his younger
uncle was a thief, but he was worried that his younger uncle would choose to
do nothing in order to get revenge.
What is at all costs?
That is to not even take your own life seriously.
Why does Mr. Xu have this idea? There is also his reason.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.
His younger uncle wanted to manipulate the savage to destroy Datang, so he
could remotely control it behind the scenes. But what is he doing now? He
actually wants his family to move to Glacier Mansion.
Old man Xu felt that his younger uncle might feel that this was too much of a
** thing, and planned to pay his own life as an atonement.
When Mr. Xu explained his analysis, Mr. Xu's eyes changed a little.
Not to mention, according to Mr. Xu's consideration, this matter is really
different.
"Father, shouldn't my little uncle really think this way, right?"
Boss Xu stared at Boss.
Mr. Xu sighed and said, "Where do I know?"
These are all his guesses.
"Father, why don't we go and ask my uncle?"
"Where to find?"
Father Xu sighed again, "Your brother-in-law doesn't know where it is now!
Besides, these are all my guesses. Only God knows whether to do it or not."
"Forget it, everything depends on God's will!"
Father Xu finally decided to leave it alone and love whoever.
He himself is now a mess, how can he still have the energy to care about other
things?
King Yan took the Cyclone Cavalry and the Northwest Town Army to the capital
to seize the throne. The North Barbarian in Longxi Mansion was still waiting
for Old Man Xu to find a way to clean up.
I don't know who gave these northern barbarians the idea, and they actually
played peekaboo with them. It's simply an improper person.
"Boss, don't care about your brother-in-law and them, but think about it
first, how can you get the North Barbarian out of Longxi Mansion!"
"Father, let's do this, I don't think it is difficult!"
Boss Xu smiled, "From the very beginning, I was thinking about this. These
northern barbarians are now slippery, they fight when they win, and they run
when they fail. Xi Mansion wandered everywhere."
"So far, King Yan has been led by the North Barbarian."
"If we want to deal with these northern barbarians, we have to find another
way and force these northern barbarians to find us desperately. If they don't
dare to work hard, they can only honestly get out of Longxi Mansion!"
"A bunch of nonsense, say, what's your so-called alternative path?"
"Then what, my idea is a bit damaged, I still learnt from the third child!"
Boss Xu will immediately explain his thoughts.
One way, set fire.
"Set fire!"
Father Xu frowned upon hearing Boss Xu's idea.
Nowadays, in Longxi Mansion, except for a few counties, there are still Datang
people. Outside the city, there are basically not many Datang people living.
Many people fled, and many more were killed or taken away by the northern
barbarians.
Of course, there must be a lot of people in the Tang Dynasty hidden in the
remote mountains and forests.
If it is set ablaze, once the fire spreads, the people of Datang hiding in the
deep mountains are likely to suffer unwarranted disasters.
"Father, I know what you are worried about, but my son thinks that these can
be avoided."
Boss Xu smiled, "Let's find a small forest first and light a fire to create
the illusion that we are going to set fire to the entire Longxi Mansion."
"Then, if you find a forest where the northern barbarian is hiding, set it on
fire!"
"Even if we can completely wipe out each other, we have to let them run away a
part and let them help us pass the message."
"Father, what's this idea?"
Boss Xu felt that he was too wise.
This is called knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger!
Father Xu thought for a while, and felt that although Boss Xu's idea was a bit
unreliable, it might really work if it was done properly.
"Try it first!"
Elder Xu didn't think of a good idea for a while, so this bad idea of Boss
Xu became the first choice at the moment.
Of course, in order to convince the Northern Barbarians of their determination
to sweep the Longxi Mansion, this matter must be handled properly.
"Boss, you immediately dispatch your troops, make your momentum a little
bigger, and then send someone to collect lamp oil, vegetable oil, and all
fire-burning objects, and then release the news."
"Father, just take a good look!"
Boss Xu rushed out impromptuly and took people to prepare related supplies.
Fighting is not just a confrontation of forces. Before the two armies fight,
intelligence is also very important.
Beiman and Datang are enemies of generations. Datang has arranged intelligence
personnel in Beiman, and Beiman also set up spies in Datang.
When Boss Xu was hoarding fire-burning things in the city, the momentum was
huge, and it naturally reached the ears of Beiman's Secret Spy.
Then, the news of the burning of Longxi Mansion spread.
The Beiman Secret Spy received the news and slipped out of the city overnight
to deliver the news to the Beiman army.
The Northern Barbarian army entered Longxi Mansion, divided the troops into
various places, and formed a huge net in Longxi Mansion. It is precisely by
virtue of this huge net that King Yan Qing's actions to suppress Beiman
repeatedly failed.
"Mad, this family is crazy!"
When the news reached the northern barbarian army in the ears of Longxi
Mansion's coach Tuoba Aofeng, the northern barbarian prince jumped directly.
The news that Xu Laosan had set off a huge fire in Xiangyi Mansion had already
spread.
Although the Baili fire extinguished the locust plague spreading from Qiping
Mansion, the fact that the Baili fire was still burning made many people
tremble.
A fire burned a hundred miles of territory. What kind of courage did it have?
Throughout the ages, there have been countless plagues of locusts, but there
has never been a person as brutal as Xu Laosan.
