Chapter 58: Crisis
Ning Yu released the carrier pigeon in his hand with a gloomy face, the news just now was really beyond his expectations.
In Ning Yu's opinion, although the crisis this time was urgent, it was not unsolvable, but what he didn't expect was that the attitude of Governor Man Pi and Governor Xiande was so strange that they didn't seem to take the Ning family in their eyes at all.
These two people are crazy about money, and now they don't care about the impact at all, and they don't care about how others scold them! For the Ning family, if you want to swallow it, you want to swallow it! As a result, we have created such a passive situation as we have today.
At this point, Ning Yu didn't want to delve into the previous problems, and the most important thing now was to deal with the threat of the Fubiao camp and rescue Ning Zhongjing. According to Ning Yu's estimate, the combat power of the Fubiao battalion is low, and it should be impossible to resist in front of the Hanyang battalion, but in the next moment, I am afraid that the Hubei Green Battalion will be suppressed.
The entire Hubei Green Battalion is about 40,000 people, and with the current Ning family's soldiers, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with, no matter how low the combat power of those Green Battalion soldiers is, but after all, it is 40,000 people.
Ning Yu thought about it carefully, and then sent someone to notify the staff office, announcing that all the students in the battalion should be urgently assembled, and after a while, with the whistle of Didi, all the students in the battalion gathered together like a stream.
Today's school camp adds up to more than 1,000 people, it looks quite spectacular, except for one or two hundred ten-year-old children, the rest are thirteen or fourteen to sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys, all of them look at Ning Yu with solemn expressions, after nearly two years of training, let these people really become Ning Yu's henchmen.
Xu Chengliang, as the rotating chief of staff of the General Staff Office, came over and saluted: "Tell the barracks, the first battalion should have 550 people at present, but it has reached 550 people, and the recruit battalion should have 589 people, but it has reached 589 people. ”
The first battalion is the main combat power of Ningyu at present, with 550 flintlock pistols and 12 thunder cannons, which has made the combat power of this battalion have been rapidly improved.
Ning Yu was carrying a long knife and looked at all the apprentices, he didn't want to say anything, and he didn't feel the need to say anything. He had an impression of each of them, and even if he couldn't name them, he could recognize their faces and eyes.
Nothing to say, nothing to say.
Fuck it, it's the other way around.
Anti-fucking!
Ning Yu's face turned red, he pulled out the matching knife at his waist, and pointed obliquely at the sky.
"Now that there is no way to retreat, there will be no retreat! Everyone, listen to me! ”
"Xu Chengliang, lead a battalion of trainees to get enough ammunition, go to Hanyang with me, and fight this first battle!"
Xu Chengliang puffed up his chest, gave a military salute, and shouted loudly: "Yes, with me Xu Chengliang, I will win the first battle!" ”
Since fighting the battle of Peach Blossom Mountain, Xu Chengliang has always felt that he has the potential of a famous general, and now he has a new battle to fight, and he is extremely excited. He was determined to completely surpass Dong Ce in this war and become the first general under Ning Yu.
"Dong Ce, lead the recruit battalion to get enough ammunition, return to Xiaogan, assist my uncle in recruiting recruits and training, all the guns and ammunition are there, I limit you to recruit 3,000 recruits within a month, and complete the basic training!"
Dong Ce has followed Ning Yu for the longest time, so he can best understand Ning Yu's thoughts, this time the task of recruiting new recruits is by no means simple, and it can even be said that it is related to the life and death of everyone. Therefore, it is also a very serious military salute: "Yes, the last general will not be dishonored." ”
Ning Yu looked at the students in the audience, and said in a deep tone, "Everyone, the war you want is coming!" ”
A roar roared from the audience, seemingly like a roaring cannonball, and began to look forward to the moment it was launched.
The trainees in the audience led the guns and ammunition in an orderly manner, the gunners also pushed out the Lei cannon, and the ammunition of the carriage was transported from the ammunition depot, and the air began to be filled with the smell of war.
Everyone knows that this is a big war, but it is also an opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service.
"Report, Qiyu Young Master, Ning Qian always sent a villain to Tongyu, he has fully controlled Yunmeng County, and Ning Qiye is cooperating with the fourth master to appease the squire." A knight rolled off his horse and shouted.
Ning Yu knew that Ning Zhongyi's current soldiers were only three or five hundred, and he was really unable to do more, so he said: "Back to the fourth master Ning, just say that I, Ning Yu, will take the first battalion of young eagles to Hanyang City, and the new battalion will return to Xiaogan County, and let the fourth master return to Xiaogan County to preside over the overall situation!" ”
The Ning family can only take charge of these few people, at present, Ning Zhongjing is in prison, and Ning Zhongyuan needs his own help in Hanyang, relying on Ning Zhongxin alone is not enough to maintain the overall situation, only relying on Ning Siye can control the situation.
Ning Yu understands that the more critical the situation, the more he must calm down, from the current point of view, the Ning family has not really reached a desperate moment, as long as the strength of everyone can be used, the Ning family still has vitality.
At the same time, when the news reached the Ning family in Xiaogan County, the entire Ning family's old house also exploded, and some people showed panic on their faces.
When the old lady and Mrs. Cheng got the news, the whole house was in a mess, but after all, the old lady had experienced wind and rain, no matter how she usually ate fasting and chanting Buddha, she showed ruthlessness at this critical moment.
The old lady first greeted the housekeeper Zhou Fu, closed all the doors of the house, strictly entered and exited, everyone should be safe and healthy, and the money was doubled this month, if anyone dared to secretly go out of the house, they would be killed.
Ning Zhongxin gathered all the guards in the outer house, everyone issued a flintlock pistol, prepared enough ammunition, guarded in front of the mansion, and cheered them up: "If you keep it, everyone will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!" ”
Xiaogan County is the old territory of the Ning family, if you can really exert all your strength, it is not too easy to pull out tens of thousands of horses, but it all takes time, and everyone is racing against time.
Ning Zhongxin's brows became more and more frowned, he didn't expect that the Ning family had encountered such a situation now, more than a dozen teams of messengers had been sent out, some of them would go to Wuchang, some would go to Hanyang, some would go to repair water, and some would go to Xiangyang, they carried the hope of the Ning family and the will of the Ning family to resist.
The old lady's heart is bright, and she understands that this will be a catastrophe, and it will be a big case involving the whole family, but now she can't fall, if she falls, this person's heart will be scattered, what about the children and grandchildren who are fighting outside now? What about the third child who is still in prison? Therefore, I have been supporting my body and relying on the breath in my heart.
After all this was done, the old lady rarely did not go to worship the Buddha, but walked into the ancestral hall of the Ning family, looking at the old lady of the Ning family on the tablet of the god lord, and her heart was suddenly confused.
"Old man, the Ning family is terrible..... You are in the spirit of heaven, bless the Ning family, bless your children and grandchildren..."
