Chapter 482: Distribution of Forces
After the Great War last year, the southeast coast was frequently invaded by small groups of Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates rested for a while between the end of December and the fifth day of the first lunar month.
However, after the year, they could not wait for the fifteenth day of the first month, and the Japanese began to work again, and then in February, the Japanese people everywhere became more and more serious, although the officials and troops everywhere frequently reported victories, but Shaoxing Mansion suffered a heavy blow, until the beginning of March, Qian Yuan, Qi Jimei broke the Japanese outside the city of Shanyin.
The tense atmosphere surrounded Ning Shaotai, Qi Jiguang, Liu Xian, Lu Bin, and Tan Lun were all told by Hu Zongxian and Qian Yuan that Ning Shaotai was likely to become Xu Hai's target next.
Suppressing the Japanese army, training troops, building ordnance, repairing warships, and pulling out a large number of young and strong people to repair and strengthen the city wall...... When Qian Yuan returned to Linhai County, he saw this scene, in full swing, among the three mansions of Ningshaotai and Taizhou, only Taizhou people dared to kill the Japanese, willing to kill the Japanese and even liked to kill the Japanese.
But when Qian Yuan returned home...... I haven't been home for another month, and when I heard that my son was leading the army again, Tan's babbling, "A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall" was repeated over and over again seventeen or eighteen times.
Qian Yuan was patient and smiled again and again, but soon, the smile on his face froze...... Like in the previous life, if you are not married, you are urging you to get married, and when you are married, you are urging you to have children.
"Where's your second sister-in-law?" Qian Yuan forcibly changed the topic, pointed to the little sister and asked, "Go and call it." ”
You can't talk about it alone, at least pull a cushion.
"The second sister-in-law went to the clinic." Xiaomei is now familiar with Xiaoqi, and replied sharply, "The second brother is not kind, my mother reprimanded the second brother a few words, and the second sister-in-law was reprimanded......"
Qian Yuan glared, and the Tan family said angrily: "My father-in-law used to be your classmate...... It's April now, and at most by the end of the year, Keqing and Xiangling will be asked to take over the house without a body. ”
"Mother, what's the ...... urgent?"
"Of course it's urgent, how old are you......"
"Second brother." Huang, the sister-in-law who was holding the child on the side, smiled and said, "Mother-in-law is in a hurry to hold her grandson." ”
The corners of Qian Yuan's mouth twitched, and he got up and said, "Mother is in a hurry to hold her grandson...... Isn't there eight taels? ”
The atmosphere in the room was tense, Tan opened his mouth but couldn't speak, Huang lowered his head and didn't say anything, and the little sister's eyes were rolling around.
"By the way, is it named?" Qian Yuan asked casually: "Last time my sister-in-law went to the Taoist temple to offer incense, didn't she let that old Taoist name it?" ”
Huang was even more nervous, fidgeting and looking at Tan, who was not a liar, but was speechless.
Fortunately, at this time, someone from outside came to report, and Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, came to visit.
Qian Yuan went out to greet him refreshed, and now his ears were clear, and when he encountered this kind of topic in the future, he would take out his eldest nephew to take it out...... Well, the matter of father and brother will not be talked about with their mother for the time being.
It doesn't matter if you have a child, Xiao Qi is a doctor, I dare not say that it is 100% safe, but at least it is much higher than the safety factor of pregnant women of the same era to give birth to children, the reason why I don't consider it for the time being, is mainly because of Xiao Qi's age, I only turned fifteen years old in March this year, and I was still a little girl in the third year of junior high school in my previous life.
Women in this era give birth prematurely, and it is often difficult to live a long life, several people that Qian Yuan is familiar with, such as Xu Wei, Xu Jie, Tao Dalin, and Zhang Juzheng, are all middle-aged widows, and Yan Song's wife Ouyang is long-lived, but she gave birth to her only son Yan Shifan in her thirties.
"It's finally back." Tan Lun sighed: "This time, Mr. Wanxi was tossed by you enough, and a few days ago he wrote a letter to ask, the soldier died in Shaoxing Mansion to kill the widow, can the Taizhou Mansion allocate a reward." ”
Qian Yuan smiled and asked, "How does my uncle reply?" ”
"What else, pretend to be deaf and dumb." Tan Lun snorted, "The Jingguan outside Shanyin City has spread all over the southeast, and the nickname of 'money cutting off heads' has also spread all over the southeast. ”
"It's not that there are widows in Shaoxing, and I don't know Ninghai...... It is said that Lu Bin and Hou Jigao also fought several times and won quite a lot. Qian Yuan smiled and arched his hand, "Lu Bin sent a letter, saying that the uncle would pay the reward in full with the head of the wolf. ”
"I heard what Lu Bin said, it was your idea to train with battle?" Tan Lun sighed: "Now the three mansions of Ningshaotai are strong, but the Taizhou Mansion is strong and strong, if Xu Hai enters Taizhou, it will ......."
"The number of soldiers is not the matter." Qian Yuan shook his head, "Taizhou now has three points of troops, Lu Bin and Hou Jigao guard Ninghai, my uncle sits in Linhai, and the two generals under his command guard Huangyan and Taiping, and Qi Jimei is stationed in Tiantai County. ”
Glancing at Tan Lun's expression, Qian Yuan persuaded: "This is a helpless matter, the coastline of Taizhou is too long, so it can only be garrisoned by dividing troops, and the tactics under Lu Bin and Qi Jimei are very different from Zhang Yuanxun, and it may not be a good thing to join forces." ”
Zhang Yuanxun's person Qian Yuan has only met twice, and he was recommended by Ge Hao, this person is highly valued by Tan Lun, and he is the leader of the Taizhou Army, and now he is stationed in Huangyan County with 2,000 soldiers.
Zhang Yuanxun's reputation is not obvious, but in fact, he is also a famous general in the history of resisting the Japanese, Jiajing 31 years, his father Zhang Kai scattered all his family wealth to recruit troops to resist the Japanese, and was killed by the Japanese in Huangyan County.
In fact, Zhang Yuanxun and Ge Hao are both Taizhou's six tiger generals who resist the Japanese, both of them are good at naval warfare, and they have repeatedly broken the Japanese at sea in history.
Next, Qian Yuan asked about Taizhou in detail, Qi Jimei and Lu Bin didn't ask for the time being, and only asked about the training of soldiers in Huangyan and Taiping counties, ordnance and equipment, and food and salary supply that Tan Lun was responsible for.
Tan Lun went to Taizhou in the 32nd year of Jiajing, recruited troops into an army, and so far commanded about 4,000 soldiers, of which 2,000 were led by Zhang Yuanxun to garrison Huangyan, 1,000 soldiers were stationed in Taiping, and the rest were distributed in Taozhu, Xinhe, Haimenwei and other places.
"Is there a little less troops here in Linhai?" Qian Yuan hesitated: "Even if you count the arrests of the county government and the government office, there are only more than 300 people. ”
"If the Japanese can attack Linhai City, then Huangyan, Ninghai, Taiping, and Tiantai ......," Tan Lun snorted, "Besides, Huangyan and Tiantai have waterways leading directly to Linhai, and no matter how bad it is, you can gather more than 1,000 people to recruit villagers temporarily, so rest assured." ”
Qian Yuan touched his chin and thought for a while before nodding, with his father over there, it is not very likely that Xu Hai will attack Taizhou, and Tan Lun is sitting in Linhai.
"By the way, you haven't been to Taiping County since the New Year, Nanjing and Hangzhou have really allocated a lot of warships to come over, and there are three Fu ships alone, and Ge Hao leads his troops to practice every day." Tan Lun smiled: "It is said that there is interference from the Duke of Wei during this period? ”
"That's Wei Guogong's dedication to state affairs......" Qian Yuan casually nonsense, thinking about it in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "In this way, Ge Hao has thirty warships...... Possible to go to sea? ”
"Absolutely." Tan Lun blurted out, and suddenly changed his words: "Don't fight head-on with the Japanese Kou...... There should be more than 100 ships under Xu Hai's command. ”
"There aren't many warships under Xu Hai's command, most of them are cargo ships, and there is only one Fu ship, which was snatched from Wang Zhi in the naval battle the year before last." Qian Yuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Let Ge Hao lead the sailor to the north to Xiangshan...... Further east. ”
"It's a bit far...... Once he encountered a large number of warships......, Tan Lun was about to shirk the situation, looked up and saw Qian Yuan's uncertain face, and suddenly woke up and said: "But Tan Wei ......"
Tan Lun knew that in the last year's war, the secret letter was sent to the vicinity of Xiangshan and Ninghai, and then transferred to the governor's mansion temporarily stationed in Shangyu County, for which the Qian family's guards killed five people.
"Give it a try." Qian Yuan licked his lips, "I'll send people from the escort team to follow ......"
Qian Yuan needs to finalize two things, first, whether Xu Hai will do anything to attack the west, if there is such a thought, others will not say it, at least the father who is the mastermind, and Wang Cuiqiao, who is the wife, should be able to see something.
Second, Qian Yuan needs to determine whether his father, brother, and second uncle Tan Wei will join the Kou with Xu Hai.
To put it mildly, Qian Yuan could not accept his father, brother and second uncle to join the army, and finally fought with the official army and was captured and killed.
To put it mildly, these people are the core figures of Qian Yuan's future plans, and they must not die at this time.
