Chapter 171 The Neighboring Army is Defeat
Taylor learned through various means that these mountain people on Mount Wumon Laso were forced to go into the mountains to make a living because of poor harvests caused by natural disasters in previous years and their difficult lives.
The young and middle-aged men here are usually responsible for cultivating the land, but when wealthy businessmen or officials with connections pass by, they will transform into bandits and rob passers-by to gain extra wealth.
Therefore, although their material reserves are limited, they are more than enough if they are only used for emergencies.
Taylor knew that any bandit would have robbed someone's house and property before, so he cleverly seized this opportunity, found the bandits, and reached a special agreement with them.
As long as they could help Taylor provide some of the much-needed supplies, Taylor promised to give them generous rewards.
Taylor then showed the bandits his strong strength and firm determination, saying that as long as they were willing to cooperate with him, he would never harm the mountain people.
However, if they did not cooperate, Taylor warned: "The sword has no eyes, and I can't guarantee anything." This sentence made the bandits realize that if they did not act according to Taylor's requirements, the consequences might be disastrous.
Facing Taylor's threat, Brother Bai saw through Taylor's ambition at a glance, but considering the safety of the mountain people, he could only reluctantly agree. This made Brother Bai feel extremely aggrieved and angry.
At this time, Duanmu Yi, who was in the mountain village, also learned about this. He immediately found Brother Bai and discussed it with him in secret. After careful consideration, Brother Bai showed a sly smile on his face, as if he had a brilliant plan.
So Brother Bai began to happily prepare various supplies to "respond to emergencies" for the neighboring country's army. At the same time, he also sent some bandits to assist in the transportation of these supplies, making the whole plan seem seamless.
Taylor's confidence increased after hearing the news. He began to calmly think about the next steps, as if everything was under his control.
He used the supplies obtained from illegal channels and part of the compensation funds from Wen Lanyue on behalf of the Beicang Kingdom to purchase a large amount of supplies. In addition to the supplies borrowed from Wumeng Laso Mountain, Taylor successfully and quickly won over the neighboring country's army again.
With Taylor's careful planning, the day of the decisive battle finally arrived.
The neighboring country sent out their elite troops to engage in a thrilling duel with Beiming Yu's soldiers.
The battlefield was filled with a tense atmosphere, with soldiers from both sides fighting hand to hand and shouts of killing shaking the sky. The generals led the way and fought bravely, and their heroic performance inspired the soldiers to fight even harder.
However, just as the battle entered a white-hot stage, an accident occurred. The bandits in Wumenglaso Mountain, who had originally cooperated with Taylor, suddenly changed their stance and turned their spearheads against the neighboring country's army.
They took advantage of the neighboring army's unpreparedness and launched a sneak attack. These bandits were not only good at using terrain, but also good at using various surprise attack tactics, making it difficult for the neighboring army to defend against them.
Taylor was totally unprepared for this change, his eyes widened, his heart filled with despair and anger. Faced with the sudden attack, the neighboring army fell into chaos.
They had been caught flat-footed and unable to mount an effective counterattack. Under Taylor's command, they had thrown their all into the war, but now they had been betrayed.
