Chapter 277: Wang Zhizheng donated tens of thousands of taels of silver

The county lieutenant opened the map, Tong Yingqiu stood on the side, and introduced seriously: "Wuhu County is a hilly area, there are no high mountains, there are only two mountains nearby, one is called Nanping Mountain in the south of the city, and the other is called Beiping Mountain in the north of the city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Wang Zhizheng nodded calmly, then pointed to the map and asked, "Has the county lieutenant been encircled and suppressed, do you know their specific location?"

The county lieutenant was from a militia group, and the first time he talked to a big man like Wang Zhizheng, he was a little nervous: "Go back to the Hou Ye...... No, no, because there are many bandits...... Don't dare to go in. ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded not strangely and said: "It is a great loss if you have not entered the suppression, you don't know the terrain if you don't enter the suppression, even if you enter the suppression, you are a blind man touching the elephant, and you will definitely lose in the end." What is the name of the thief?"

The county lieutenant hurriedly replied: "There are three thieves who are known as the three brothers, the third is the innkeeper who was killed by you, and the second and eldest are called Niu Scraper and Donkey Scraper respectively. The three of them married Jinlan with a clear division of labor, the scraper used the black shop to kill people and sell goods, the ox scraper plundered the county seat, and the donkey scraper recruited troops and horses. ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled: "That's right, since it is a righteous knot Jinlan, the people of the rivers and lakes are the most righteous, the third child is killed, and the eldest and second child will definitely seek revenge on me." ”

Tong Yingqiu hurriedly said, "Master Hou, do you plan to use yourself as bait?"

Wang Zhizheng nodded: "Into the mountains to encircle and suppress, not familiar with the terrain, that is, there are many people, once they are broken into pieces to make birds and beasts, it will be difficult to enter and suppress clean, since you have contact with them, you might as well send someone to release the news, just say that I live in the county and have not left Wuhu County, leading the snake out of the hole." ”

Tong Yingqiu was a little uncertain: "But if you do this, they may not come out of the nest!"

Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly, stared at Tong Yingqiu and asked, "As the saying goes, no profit is not early, what if I bring more than a dozen boxes of gold, silver and jewelry to Wuhu County?"

As soon as Wang Zhizheng's words fell, Tong Yingqiu patted his head: "Yes, what they lack most is gold, silver and jewelry, if they use enemies and gold and silver jewelry as bait, it will definitely attract them to come out of the nest!"

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Well, but we must choose the address of the encirclement and suppression, the ambush must be set up, the equipment must be ready, if the preparation is sufficient, with 600 people to destroy 300 people, the chance of victory is 10 percent! But if they do not go out of the mountain, with 600 people to suppress 300 people, the chance of victory is only 30 percent." ”

Tong Yingqiu nodded and said, "Your analysis is very reasonable, so what are the specific requirements?"

Wang Zhizheng pondered for a moment and looked at Huang Zongxi beside him: "This time I am going to set up a quadrangular formation, dividing the six hundred people into three large formations, the first formation of four hundred people is the big knife battalion, commanded by Huang Zongxi, fortified at the front, the second formation of one hundred people is the bow and arrow battalion, fortified in the middle layer, personally commanded by me, and the third formation is the alternate battalion of 100 people, fortified by Tong Yingqiu, in the outermost periphery. ”

Wang Zhizheng said, pulled out the guard sword, pointed to the map, and said: "When the enemy enters the ambush circle, I command the bow battalion to release the arrows first, and at this stage I want to give the bandits a devastating blow, so I need to fire sixty arrows per person, and I need six thousand arrows for one hundred people." By the time I finish shooting 6,000 arrows, the survival rate of the enemy army should not exceed 150 people, Huang Zongxi's broadsword battalion took advantage of the situation to kill, 400 people slashed and killed 150 people, the broadsword battalion is the main force, I ask that I must use a good ice blade, and I am not allowed to be shoddy! After the big knife battalion launched a fierce attack, Tong Yingqiu led the third alternate battalion to tightly block the battlefield, don't kill it directly, and kill all the bandits who escaped.

Tong Yingqiu heard that Wang Zhizheng was tightly arranging the net, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "These hundreds of bandits should not offend Lord Hou, hehehe, today is also their end." ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "In a war, the arrangement of the formation is only one aspect, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, including all possible variables, is the variable of victory and defeat, so it cannot be taken lightly." At present, I can't startle the snake, you can record it, I need a hundred bows, 6,000 sharp arrows, and 600 broadswords, this most basic configuration, can only be more and not less!"

Tong Yingqiu sighed and said, "I'm afraid that Governor Li's finances will be insufficient, so I can't prepare so many weapons for a while. ”

Wang Zhi's face showed an impatient look, and said to Zhou Cheng beside him: "Slap all the silver tickets on your body on the shore of the table!"

Zhou Cheng took out more than a dozen crumpled silver tickets from his arms and said: "There are so many silver tickets to go out, let's leave eight thousand taels of flowers!"

Wang Zhizheng glared at him: "Whatever you keep, take it all out!"

Zhou Cheng dug it out again and slapped it on the shore of the table, Tong Yingqiu and everyone were shocked, this Hou Ye actually paid out of his own pocket in order to suppress the thief, it was incredible!

Wang Zhizheng pointed to the silver ticket: "You count!"

Tong Yingqiu took out the silver ticket with a trembling hand and counted it: "Master Hou, publicize 16,000 taels!"

Wang Zhizheng said: "Hurry up and buy bows and arrows, big knives, don't delay, prepare them for me within three days!"

Tong Yingqiu knelt down and said, "Master Hou, it was originally a matter of one of our counties, but I am really embarrassed to involve Master Hou in investing!"

Wang Zhizheng smiled coldly: "Money is something outside the body, you can earn more after you spend it, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and let the procurement to the weapons factory to set arrows, I understand the price of bows and arrows, these money is enough to buy 200,000 pieces, you let him prepare 100,000 pieces, my bow battalion wears 100 bows and arrows per person, and you keep the rest of the silver tickets as funds, recruit troops and horses, don't raise thieves anymore!"

Tong Yingqiu said excitedly: "Yes, Master Hou, it's really embarrassing to see Lord Hou today." Immediately take out all the 10,000 taels of savings from your family to develop the defense of Wuhu!"

Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai were also greatly moved: "The Restoration Society is willing to donate!"

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand: "You can keep the money for the restoration of the society, the money I donated is enough!"

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "It's good that you have this awareness, by the way, you send guards to the prefect's yamen to ask Governor Li to disguise all the people and horses as civilians and enter the city in batches, and after entering the city, they will live in each inn, and send all 500 people in three days, don't startle the snakes, if the bandits know that we are increasing troops in Wuhu, they will not dare to come out of the nest!"

Tong Yingqiu nodded and pulled over to the sentry beside him and ordered him sharply: "Quickly go to the prefect's yamen and bring the order of the prefect to the prefect, don't delay on the way, tell you to come back as soon as possible, and let their generals come back with you first!"

The sentry immediately turned and walked away.

Zhou Cheng looked at Wang Zhizheng and complained: "Master Hou, you donated all the silver tickets I brought, we will drink the northwest wind on this trip to Jiangnan!"

Wang Zhizheng gave him a blank look: "Don't talk nonsense, from Jinling to Suzhou, there are many friends of the Fu Society and the grandfather of the country, are you still afraid that you will have no food?!"

Before Zhou Cheng could reply, Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai took the lead in expressing their attitude: "Don't worry, Master Hou, when we get to Jinling, we will do all the food and drink in Jinling!"

Wang Zhizheng looked at Zhang Pu with a smile and said: "You are all rich in the southeast, you don't care about me eating and drinking, I won't let it go!"

As soon as Wang Zhizheng's words fell, everyone laughed again.
