C773 Second Step Plan
Although these highwaymen had rigid thinking, it didn't mean that their intelligence was low. On the contrary, they were extremely perceptive. After Yang Xuan explained it once, they immediately understood their responsibilities and overall strategy.
Next, they split up into three groups, starting from Xuan City, and headed in three different directions to launch a lightning strike on Hongmen's territory!
The highwaymen were indeed powerful. Coupled with Yang Xuan's exquisite tactical command, the three groups were unstoppable.
In just two days, they had taken down a total of eight cities, creating an unbelievable record.
The morale of the highwaymen was high, and they could not stop attacking the territory of the Hongmen Sect.
At this moment, Yang Xuan's focus was on the plan to retreat south.
This was because he knew very well that the highwaymen's victory was only temporary.
The Hongmen Sect had dominated the north for more than a hundred years, and its strength was deeply rooted. How could it be so easily shaken?
The tens of thousands of highwaymen had poured out their full force and launched a sudden attack. It seemed like an unstoppable force, but in truth, to the towering tree known as the Hongmen Sect, it was merely a slight shake of its leaves.
Apart from formulating a plan to retreat south, Yang Xuan had also asked Zhang Beijia to bring twenty of his brothers to carry out a secret mission.
Destroying all the paths into the mountain had caused them to suffer a crushing defeat, and they had nowhere to retreat to.
After another three days, Yang Xuan's prediction began to come true.
On the other side of Hongmen, Xie Wenxi had dispatched three powerful generals, Three Eyes, and Li Shuang to block the three highwaymen.
After that, he ordered Nanxin Lei and Ren Xiaofeng to lead a group of men to surround the highwaymen.
When Hongmen revealed their true strength, the highwaymen were defeated in the first strike.
Following which, another round of attacks was launched. The highwaymen, who had been unstoppable a few days ago, were instantly routed and began to shift their forces. To put it bluntly, they were fleeing.
In just a few days, the highwaymen had lost their territory and retreated back to Xuancheng City with their tails between their legs.
"Son of a b * tch! These bastards are quite formidable. Brothers, prepare to retreat to the mountains. If they dare to chase after us, we'll make sure that they never return!"
Long Aotian was a smart man after all, and he immediately made the right decision.
However, when they prepared to retreat back to the mountain, they discovered that all of the paths to enter the mountain had been blown up!
"Hongmen this bunch of bastards!"
Zhang Beijia was the first to shout angrily, "Those dogs have cut off our escape route. They are trying to force us to death. I will go and play with their lives right now!"
As Zhang Beijia spoke, he walked back angrily with his iron claws in his hands.
"Brother, don't be rash!"
Long Aotian immediately blocks Zhang Beijia, "Brother, calm down a bit. A man is able to bend and bend, and preserve a useful body. In the future, we will get rid of our previous shame!"
Yang Xuan and the rest of the Heavenly Annihilator brothers who were standing at the side almost burst out laughing when they saw this scene.
If Long Aotian knew that these paths were personally blown up by Zhang Beijia, who knew what he would think?
"Brother Aotian, you decide!"
Yang Xuan walked forward and said, "Hongmen Sect has already forced us into a corner. If we fight head on, none of us will be able to live."
"Now, all the paths to the mountain have been destroyed. By the time we clear the path, I'm afraid that Hongmen Sect will have caught up to us by now."
"The most important thing right now is what Brother Ao Tian said just now. We have to save our useful bodies and wait for the right time. We will get rid of our previous shame in the future!"
The rest of the members of the Heavenly Calamity Sect also quickly agreed, "Alliance leader, quickly make a decision. The lives of tens of thousands of brothers are in your hands now."
The corner of Long Aotian's mouth twitched as he clenched his fists and said, "The only way now is to find a place to settle down."
This suggestion was immediately rejected by Yang Xuan, "Brother Heavenly Dragon, the entire north is the territory of Hongmen Sect. Where can we find a place to settle down?"
Long Aotian's forehead was full of sweat, he didn't pay any attention to it now.
At this moment, someone in the crowd muttered, "Since the north is the territory of Hongmen Sect, why don't we go to the south?"
When these words came out, Zhang Beijia immediately put on an enlightened expression and fiercely slapped his thigh, "That's right, why didn't I think of that?"
"No matter how awesome the Hongmen Sect is, can they still extend their hands to the south? Alliance Master, I think this method is feasible! "
Long Aotian seemed to be in a dilemma. They have been living in the north for generations, now that they suddenly want to move south, it is equivalent to completely giving up on the place where they have lived for generations.
Seeing Long Aotian's hesitation, the negotiation expert parrot quickly said," Alliance leader, quickly take note, we will listen to you. "
"We will do whatever you want us to do. At most, we will fight them to the death. Isn't it just a life?!"
"I just hope that someone will remember us in the future. Remember that we, the highwaymen, have been passed down for hundreds of years. That's enough!"
The parrot was indeed an expert negotiator. These words that seemed to be filled with righteous indignation had actually struck a chord in Long Aotian's heart.
If the highwaymen who had been passed down for hundreds of years were to die in his hands today, Long Aotian wouldn't be able to hold back even if he died.
"Damn it, that's what I'm going to do!"
Long Aotian shouted at the highwaymen, "Brothers, there is a saying that goes, as long as there is hope, there will be hope!"
"Today, we have a blood feud with the Hongmen Sect. Sooner or later, we will make them pay back double the price!"
"Therefore, we must endure for now and wait for the right time. Now, I declare that everyone is ready to move south!"
Hearing Long Aotian's words, Yang Xuan, Zhang Beijia and the others looked at each other without batting an eyelid.
Their second step plan was considered to have succeeded.
But this matter wasn't over yet, they still needed to complete the third step.
Even though the highwaymen had been killed by Hongmen, the fierce attacks from the past few days had also caused quite a number of Hongmen brothers to lose their lives.
Based on Xie Wenxi's personality, he would never let this matter rest. Furthermore, it was impossible for him to not think that the highwaymen would migrate south.
Hence, if the highwaymen moved south again, Xie Wenxi would definitely send troops to intercept them.
However, Yang Xuan had already thought of a plan.
Taking advantage of the convenience, Yang Xuan quietly went to a deserted place and dialed a bunch of phone numbers sent by the Profound Army Soldier's Athena Team a few hours ago.
"Speak!"
The call connected and a young man's voice came.
Yang Xuan paused for a few seconds, then said faintly, "Master Xie, I want to make a deal with you."
Xie Wenxi's gloomy voice came from the other end of the phone, "Who are you?"
Yang Xuan said, "Who I am is not important. What is important is that I have a very good deal for you. I wonder if Master Xie is interested."0
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone. Xie Wenxi's calm voice came, "Go ahead."
Yang Xuan slowly lit a cigarette and said, "I know where all the treasures are buried in the highwaymen mountain range."
"The highwaymen have been around for hundreds of years. As for what exactly is inside, I believe that Sect Master Xie should know."
"I plan to use this treasure map to exchange for an item with Sect Master Xie."
