It's really a splash, it's too difficult.

Chi Erhan was stunned for a while, and finally held back his temperament, he frowned and said, "It's a big war right now...... General Ben also has insufficient troops at his disposal, so I will leave you eight men to train these people for you, and you can recruit men and horses in the surrounding areas...... As for the rank...... In this way, you can recruit as many people as you want...... If you recruit dozens of people, you can only recruit from the seventh grade, and if you recruit 3,000 people, you are a general...... How is it? ”

This is perfunctory, Hengyang Town has become a dead place, with Liu Fang a splash, where can he recruit people? Who will follow him?

But when Liu Fang heard this, he didn't make trouble, he agreed.

Chi Erhan pointed to the battlefield that was still being cleaned and said, "The weapons of these Tartar soldiers are left to you, and there are also injured horses...... I'm going to take the horses that aren't hurt, and I can leave you some muskets and ammunition...... Your task is to hold Hengyang and hold the retreat of our army...... In this way, I will credit you in the future! ”

Liu Fang happily agreed.

As a result, a small town in Hengyang, which is actually a town that has existed in name only, has a garrison after the Ming Dynasty Inspection Division.

And Chi Erhan didn't expect that his casual perfunctory speech was equivalent to granting Liu Fang the right to recruit troops cheaply, and thus achieved Liu Fang's brilliant life.

This is already a later story.

……。

"Young Master." Song An put a piece of information in front of Wu Zheng, "Changlin Wei urgently report." ”

Wu Zhengzheng stared at the map on the wall and replied casually, "What's the matter, just say it." ”

This damn map, drawn by hand, is completely incompatible with Wu Zheng, and yes, the map at this time is only for reference, if there is a similarity, it is a coincidence.

Guangxin Wei moved.

Although Tianchang Xiang Chi Erhan and Shi Kun said that their troops were insufficient, they were the elite of the First Army after all, and Wu Zheng's attention still stayed in the direction of Haizhou.

Can Qian Qiaogong and Lu Zhiyu block the enemy's full force? This is what Wu Zheng is most worried about.

As long as it is blocked once, with the current situation of the Qing court, it will not be able to organize a second attack, then the main force of the First Army on the north bank can determine the main attack target, and the whole game of chess will be alive.

In other words, by this time, in fact, Wu Zheng still had not determined the main target of this battle.

The three directions, in fact, are all imaginary, and it depends on how the Qing court responds.

Punching a gap, and then making the main force of the First Army rush forward, this is Wu Zheng's real tactical and strategic intention.

This is not Wu Zheng's slack and laziness.

As a matter of fact, there will never be one, two, or three major strategic actions...... Such a predetermined plan.

If there is, it must be a lie.

In a large-scale military operation, there is often only one proposal.

That's whether to fight or not!

As for how to fight, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and all plans are empty talk.

It is said that the plan never changes quickly, and the General's Mansion does not have such a planning genius.

Therefore, it is the right way to test from different directions, and then find out the weak points of the Qing court's defense, and then break through with the main force, so as to launch a decisive battle at the right time, place, and people in your favor.

Now the news and battle reports from the three directions are all put on the case, but the news is generally not good or bad.

Neither good nor bad, in fact, is bad news, which can only show that the enemy and us are deadlocked and have made no progress.

This is really a headache for Wu Zheng for the pressure he was under at this time. Read it

Song An didn't speak, he was silent.

This made Wu Zheng a little puzzled, he straightened up and turned his head, frowned, and said, "What's the matter...... So you don't talk anymore? ”

While speaking, Wu Zheng picked up the information that Song An put on the case.

Zhang Yongwen.

Forty-two years old.

Codename "Cold Dew" .......

Wu Zhenghuo raised his head, "...... Hengyang Town?" ”

Song An replied dryly, "Hengyang Town, it's gone...... Lao Zhang, dead! ”

"Lao Zhang? Is that the old talent who didn't pass the exam for several years? ”

After getting Song An's confirmation, Wu Zheng was stunned for a while, and let out a long breath, "It's not your fault...... It was my fault. ”

Song An choked up a little and said, "It shouldn't be like this...... It's all a local splash named Liu Fang who caused trouble...... According to the young master's original deployment, the Tartars raided Hengyang Town, which should be dealt with by 3,000 people from the First Army stationed in Jiangdu, but it can be ...... For three years, I spent three years of hard work to plant cold dew in Hengyang, and that's it...... Nope. ”

Speaking of this, Song An said angrily: "This splash called Liu Fang is an unforgivable sin!" ”

Wu Zheng sighed lightly and said, "Those who don't know are not guilty, what's more, he finally did a job." ”

"Take the lives of thousands of innocent people in the whole town and exchange them for hundreds of Tartars...... This is also called personnel? Song An's emotions were a little out of control, "...... did he let those peasants with hoes go against the enemy cavalry armed to the teeth?" ”

"But in the end, it did win!" Wu Zheng said calmly.

"That's also the time for Erhan to arrive!"

"No, even if Erhan didn't arrive in time, he won."

Song An was stunned, "What does the young master mean by this?" ”

Wu Zheng said leisurely: "He gave the Han people in Jiangbei a good start...... Such an elite enemy cavalry was dragged by him in Hengyang for three days before and after, even if Chi Erhan did not arrive in time, he and his subordinates were all wiped out...... What does that mean? People always die, and if they do such a good thing before they die, it is not in vain to come to this world! ”

Song An was a little stunned, "But ...... He not only caused Zhang Yongwen to die in vain, but also disrupted the young master's deployment. ”

"Bullshit deployment!" Wu Zheng shook his head a little annoyed, "Where did the deployment come from?" I want to deploy, will the enemy do it? On the front line of Fengyang, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou, where is the enemy not heavily guarded, what deployment can I make to disrupt and disperse them? ”

Song An was silent, he understood what Wu Zheng meant.

This battle was originally different from the previous war, when there was a common hatred of the enemy at home and abroad, but now, in internal and external difficulties, there are different voices inside, thinking that this war should not be fought, at least, it should not be fought at the moment.

Wu Zheng raised his head suddenly, "Does he still have a family?" ”

Song An shook his head, "It's gone...... His wife was killed six years ago when the Qing army went south. ”

"What happened after the death?"

Song An shook his head slowly, "Chi Erhan didn't know that Lao Zhang was Chang Linwei, and when he sent the information, he had already led the army back to help Sizhou...... Chang Lin Wei no longer has manpower there. ”

Wu Zheng sighed slightly, and stretched out the information in his hand to the candle flame to light it, "Then let's do it......." ”

In the firelight, the information instantly turned into ashes, like Lao Zhang's light at the foot of the nameless mountain, like a flash in the pan.

Yes, how many people died in this six-year war, and how many of them did not leave their names?

This sense of urgency that wanted to burst out of his chest made Wu Zheng suddenly have the urge to give it a go.
