Chapter 70: The Crisis of Xianyou City

Gou Shisan finally left after educating Yaya, as for what Yaya would do next, he was really in no mood to care, he just received a video invitation from Qi Jiguang and could only leave in a hurry.

"Ouch, Gou is leaving? I'll remember you next time! Uncle Wu opened the door for him and said with a smile on his face, but Gou Shisan couldn't feel that he was saying good things! Damn, you old man is really not a thing, not a thing to him!

"Thank you, I don't want to see you next time!" Gou Shisan learned the tone of the Kyoto people and waved goodbye teasingly, and immediately contacted Qi Jiguang when he got in the car.

"Qi Ye, what's the situation?"

"Ouch, Thirteenth Master, you can be regarded as online. I'm in a hurry, this thing is a big deal! Qi Jiguang appeared in Gou Shisan's sight with a sad face, this should be a wild place, and the tender green grass around has just emerged, and it looks like there is still a hint of tender yellow.

"Tell me!"

Qi Jiguang looked at the door and said, "I can't hide it, this time I originally came to exterminate the Waiko of Xianyou, but just now the scout came with news that the Wokou have landed to attack Xianyou." In fact, the Japanese invaders had already attacked once a year ago, and at that time the disparity in our forces was too big to be sure, so I returned to the army to wait for reinforcements, but now some of them have come, but the Japanese have also increased a lot! ”

Qi Jiguang babbled about the general situation, and Gou Shisan also used this moment to search on the Internet, and found that the situation of rescuing Xianyou in history was a little different from what Qi Jiguang said now. In history, it was Tan Lun and Qi Jiguang who commanded the troops to rescue them, stationed twenty miles outside Xianyou City, at this time Qi Jiguang's subordinates only had 6,000 people, and the difference in strength between the enemy and us was huge, so it was not appropriate to fight a decisive battle immediately. In January of the following year, the army that changed the guard arrived, and after Qi Jiguang made careful arrangements, he divided his way and marched to Xianyou.

But the current situation is that Qi Jiguang came last year, and then went back, and he didn't know the problem, but it was definitely not only that the difference in strength between the enemy and us was too great, but also that he was not easy to ask.

"And what about the current situation on both sides of the enemy?" Gou Shisan thought about it for a while, and felt that the world was still not the same as history, and there was no way but to ask about the situation first and then see if he could help, anyway, he really didn't like the Japanese Kou.

"Hey, don't mention it! The imperial court originally said that it would support us with 10,000 horses, but now less than 5,000 have come. In addition, our 8,000 Qi family troops are less than 20,000, and the Japanese have more than 20,000 and almost 30,000 this time, which is too big a disparity in strength. Moreover, we don't have enough food, grass and equipment! Qi Jiguang said a little angrily, to be honest, although he has won many battles over the years, how many people know the sadness and bitterness in it!

"So big, huh? But didn't you say before that the Qi family army we came here was only 3,000? Gou Shisan was a little puzzled, when the Qi family army came, he helped provide grain and grass to subsidize 1,000 taels to help 3,000 people eat and drink for about a year, and now it is more than 5,000 all of a sudden, and he is a little confused.

"Hey, although it is said that we have an army of 8,000, but there are only about 6,000 soldiers who can really fight, and the others are auxiliary soldiers, and there are also 2,000 veterans who I left behind a year ago to help the surrounding counties defend against the Japanese invaders, and I brought them all this time."

"Oh, that's it! Then we can't wait any longer? The disparity in strength is too great, so the casualties will be very large! "Gou 13 knows that in the era of cold weapons, it is very important to decide the victory or defeat of the war, and if the disparity in strength is too great, even a veteran of a hundred battles is easy to be hacked to death by the chaotic soldiers.

"It's too late, and I don't know if the Japanese have learned that our army has overwhelmed the border, and they have been storming Xianyou City since yesterday, Xianyou is already very critical, if I don't send troops again, I'm afraid...... Hey, there's no way to find you! Qi Jiguang said aggrievedly, in fact, he didn't want his good sons and daughters to fight to the death, but it was his duty to resist foreign enemies.

"Okay, I see. You wait for me for a while, and I'll figure it out for you. "Gou Thirteen also has a headache, the strength of the enemy and us is almost doubled, this is not an ordinary army, the Japanese are brave and ruthless, and the ferocious nature is not those mountain bandits.

Paralyzed, how can it seem that there are differences between the different time and space and history that we are connected to? What is the problem?

Forget it, forget it, let's think about these when you have time! Let's think about how to help get rid of these widows, the paralyzed old man will one day support the old man to rush to the island, so that you don't want to rise for the rest of your life!

"Is there anything that can help Grandpa Qi win more with less? Machine guns, this is a good thing, even if it's an automatic rifle, it's not bad, but where can I get it? This is not a foreign country! No, I took the time to go abroad, and the domestic market is a little troublesome.

Thinking about how to help Qi Jiguang Gou Thirteen suddenly came up with the idea of going abroad to fight, in fact, this idea is not only for some items prohibited in China, if he wants to become a second-class dealer, he must have some foreign channels, otherwise it is really troublesome, just like those gold and silver jewelry last time, it is very troublesome!

But foreign countries are different, people don't care about the source of your things, as long as it's a good thing, people dare to give a price and dare to help you sell it. Therefore, sometimes the second-class dealer is really popular abroad, but the family may not necessarily allow him to go abroad or immigrate!

Ouch, why do you think about so many things! Forget it, take your time and consider Grandpa Qi's problem first, Grandpa Qi's problem is the key!

Hey, the grenade is good! Paralyzed, there shouldn't have been that era yet! Just use a grenade to open the way, blow up those turtle grandsons for half an hour, and then rush up, won't there be nothing?

This is good, this is good! Wowhaha, Lao Tzu is such a genius!

"Well, then you have to find Lao Zeng for the grenade! I don't know if Lao Zeng has prepared some of them, but don't be special and it's over before he prepares. Gou Thirteen muttered to Zeng Guofan, and soon the video was connected, and after looking at the situation, Zeng Guofan should be in the Hunan army camp.

"Thirteen masters!"

"Hey, how is Lao Zeng doing?" looked at the respectful Zeng Guofan Gou Thirteen in the video, thought about it, maybe it was really different from history, and he couldn't think about the specifics, so he had to give up.

"Thanks to the blessing of the Thirteenth Master, Xiaguan has recently had prosperous official fortunes and prosperous business!" Zeng Guofan also let go after a few polite words, and he also knew that Gou Thirteen was not informal, and he didn't care about those false courtesies.

"Well, that's good. By the way, I asked you to help me find a foreigner to buy a grenade, did you get it? Gou 13 couldn't wait to ask, there is no way for Grandpa Qi to wait for help!

"More than 1,000 have been prepared, and these are all stored by foreigners in Great Britain. In addition, there are more than a thousand that will take half a year to arrive, I don't know when the Thirteenth Master will ask for it? Zeng Guofan reported the situation without thinking about it, there is no way, now the Thirteenth Master is his big backer for his promotion and fortune, not to mention the others, Lafayette is very face-saving to him.

"Well, that's good, that's good! Your Hunan army is also preparing to go to war with the hairy ghosts, right? ”

"Well, it has been decided that at the end of June, we will send troops from Changsha Mansion to Wuhan for the long-haired ghosts, and then it will be a good time for our Hunan army to make contributions." Zeng Guofan said confidently, after the guidance of the foreigner instructor recently, the strength of the Hunan army has increased a lot.

"Very well, remember to bring some grenades when the time comes. That's a big killer, especially when attacking or defending at close range. Gou Shisan thought about it and explained a few words to Zeng Guofan, Xiang Jun is his trump card against foreign devils in the future, and it is better to reduce some losses in internal friction.

"Hehe, I also bought more than 2,000 grenades from foreigners, in fact, after I applied it for the first time, I found that this thing is definitely more convenient than foreign cannons, especially in some encounters or close combat." Zeng Guofan's military talent is not low, and after seeing the power of grenades, he understands, and he has already bought some spare ones from foreigners in private.

"Yo, smart! Okay, you understand. I think you now know that the world has changed a lot, the power of foreign guns and cannons and ironclad ships are all sharp weapons, and only if you master them can you be invincible. ”

Since it comes to these, Gou Thirteen doesn't mind reminding Lao Zeng that science and technology are the primary productive forces, and without your own industrial system, no matter how awesome your troops are, they are just a group of people, and they are paper tigers in front of other people's aircraft and artillery.

"Well, I'm thinking about that too. However, since the Thirteenth Master has mentioned that the lower officials will definitely do it, but we still have relatively few technical talents. Zeng Guofan agreed without thinking about it, he knew that the thirteenth master's ability and vision would never be wrong, but now the Qing Dynasty has a really bad opinion of foreigners, and many things can't be done clearly.

"You can send some young people to study abroad in places where foreign devils are foreigners, and when the time comes, they will bring back a lot of technology and knowledge, remember that education must be grasped. Ouch, don't say it, give me the grenade, I'm still waiting for help, as for these problems, you think about it first and we'll talk about it another day," Gou Shisan felt that he liked to pretend to be more and more forceful, and Grandpa Qi, the mother's family, was still waiting to save his life, but he installed it here.

"Okay, I'll give it to you right away!"

"Boss, did your client Zeng Guofan send you a thousand grenades to receive?" A few minutes after Zeng Guofan finished speaking, the little secretary also sent a text message, and Gou Shisan directly asked the little secretary to forward it to Grandpa Qi, there is no way, time is life, and you can't wait any longer.
