My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 134 The mantis stalks the cicada
"How are things arranged?"

After the greetings, Lu Yi went straight to the point.

"Brother-in-law, everything is ready!"

"I sent some of my tribesmen to pretend to be passing herdsmen and observe the dense forest. Those smugglers are too unprofessional. Their hiding traces were easily discovered by the scouts. As long as they made the slightest movement, the scouts would pass the information to us!"

Hatter's face was filled with excitement.

"We have also made all the necessary preparations. Each baggage cart has been covered with a curtain, and two warriors from our Hunye tribe are ambushed in each cart."

"And I am also under the order of my father to lead two hundred tribesmen to wait for my brother-in-law's orders."

"Great!"

"If we count the two hundred assistants and one hundred drivers, there are five hundred people in the team."

"In this case, even if Wang Fu and his men attack brazenly, they will not be able to capture the caravan in a short period of time."

"And the sniper forces of our four coalition forces have a total of 800 people, which is more than Wang Fu's 1,000 people."

Zhang Xun couldn't help but show excitement when he heard this.

This was one of his several trips outside the border, but it was the first time that a battle involving two thousand people took place.

"Haha, even a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit. Defeating Wang Fu is nothing to us. What we really need to pay attention to is to eliminate them at the lowest cost."

Lu Yi chuckled, patted Zhang Xun's shoulder to comfort him, and then asked.

"How many days will it take for the caravan to reach the dense forest where Wang Fu and his companions are hiding?"

"About two or three days!" Hartler replied after a quick calculation.

"Have the fire starters been prepared?" Lu Yi asked again.

"Haha, thanks to my brother-in-law for thinking long-term. He had already delivered kerosene to the Hunye tribe when Cheng Lian arrived last time. Now there is some prepared on each horse, which is enough to deal with this battle!" Hatter carefully took out a tightly wrapped porcelain bottle from the bag on the horse's back and shook it twice. Immediately, the sound of liquid flowing was heard in the porcelain bottle.

"In that case, the coalition forces will rest for a day, and tomorrow they will follow me to the dense forest to eat up Wang Fu's thousand men!"

Seeing that everything was ready, Lu Yi simply ordered the coalition forces to rest for a day so that they could be in the best possible condition for the battle two days later.

Just as the four allied forces were resting.

Deep in the nameless forest, Wang Fu and others were also making final preparations for the ambush.

"Haha, Lu Yi is blinded by greed. In order to make a profit every month, he has been using the same trade route for half a year. This is a way to his own death!"

"Haha, what the king said is absolutely right. Even merchants like us have to prepare several trade routes and switch back and forth to prevent those who are interested in the caravan's wealth from intercepting and killing us along the way. Lu Yi is still too young."

"You're right. It's windy and dusty out in the Great Wall. Although horse trading is very profitable, not just anyone can compete with us for a living. That Lu Yi is probably doing business for the first time and doesn't have the experience we have accumulated over generations. We, the old seniors, need to teach this young man a lesson so that he will remember it."

Wang Fu also had a ruthless look on his face.

"The scouts reported that their caravan is approaching, and it will only take two days to get there. Everyone should rest well in the next two days and wait for Lu Yi's caravan to fall into their trap!"

"We will rob his caravan this time to injure him, and then we will make sure he doesn't dare to leave the border alone!"

"What the hell! How dare you fight with my Zhongshan Chamber of Commerce!"

At Wang Fu's command, the Zhongshan coalition forces immediately began to rest. However, they did not know that they had fallen into a quagmire.

……

"We have contacted the eldest brother, and the plan remains the same!" A smile appeared on Gao Shun's face after he received a letter sent by Lu Yi.

"Haha, Wang Fu could pick on anyone else but our eldest brother. He is really like an old man eating arsenic." Song Xian also sneered, and his tone was full of contempt for Wang Fu and others.

"If big brother can lead us to defeat the Zhongshan Chamber of Commerce, I'm afraid we can monopolize the horse smuggling in the entire Mayi, and then maybe everyone of us can become a shopkeeper!" Wei Xu had a look of yearning on his face, and he had even begun to think about what would happen after the victory.

Although they underestimated the enemy, it can be seen from the laughter and conversation of several people that after several battles and more than half a year of training, the people under Lu Yi have begun to show some confidence that only a strong army can have.

Naturally, they would not take a group of profiteers from Zhongshan seriously.

Two days passed by in a flash.

Wang Fu led several clan leaders on horseback to the edge of the dense forest and kept looking back in the direction they came from.

"According to the time, the Lu family caravan should be here today. I wonder if something unexpected happened on the way? Why haven't they shown up yet when the time has passed?"

"Brother Wang, how about I send a warrior from my family to investigate?"

One person couldn't wait to ask Wang Fu, but was flatly rejected by Wang Fu.

"No!"

"Traveling caravans will always encounter various situations, such as broken roads, rivers blocking the way, or wheels simply getting stuck in mud and sand. It is normal to be delayed for a while. If we send out scouts at this moment to alert the enemy, it would be bad."

"Be patient. If today is less than a day, we can still send out scouts. The Lu family caravan is encumbered by baggage carts. Even if they change their route temporarily, they will definitely not be able to escape our light cavalry's pursuit!"

Wang Fu's words were well-reasoned and calmed everyone's restless hearts.

As if to confirm his words, at the end of the road in the distance, the flag of the Lu caravan appeared first, and then a medium-sized caravan consisting of 300 people slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

"They are coming!" someone shouted in surprise.

"Brothers, please go back and inform the warriors of all tribes to prepare. Once the caravan passes by us, we will rush over and kill their leader, their guards and drivers, and loot all their horses and goods!"

Wang Fu was also very excited and quickly gave orders to everyone.

"Yes!" Upon hearing this, everyone turned around quickly and prepared.

Gao Shun, who was far away, looked at the flock of birds in the dense forest that were startled by the actions of Wang Fu and others, and could not help but let out a scornful smile. He immediately ordered Song Xu, Wei Xu and others to order the servants, coachmen and the warriors of the Hunye tribe hiding in the curtains of the baggage carts to be ready to fight at any time.

"Ready to fight!"

On the other side, behind a high ground behind the dense forest, Lu Yi also led 800 coalition troops to hide in the shadow of the high ground, observing the situation of Wang Fu and Gao Shun at any time, while casually giving orders to Lu Bu, Zhang Xun and Hatler around him.

"Yes!" The three of them excitedly clasped their fists and accepted the order.

"My fellow men, the treacherous merchant Lu Yi has cut off our trade routes. We have been thrifty for the past few months because of this thief. Today, this thief's caravan has fallen into our trap. It is time for us to take revenge and avenge our grievances!"

"Fuck me!"
