The simple map was spread out on the square table, Qian Yuan kept making various marks on the map with his pen, and sitting next to him were Sun Kehong, Shen Xingping, Gui Youguang, and the person who agreed with Qian Yuan a moment ago, this is a middle-aged man who is not tall but looks extremely thin.

Hu Xianling and Lu Bin were busy preparing for martial law outside, and now the city was in chaos.

"This is Jiaxing Mansion, and Lu Bo is guarding it."

"This is Chuansha, Yu Dayou is guarding."

Qian Yuan pointed at the map with a brush, "No matter which side loses or misses a large number of pirates, they will report to Taicang, where did this group of pirates come from?" ”

Speaking of which, there are many places along the Songjiang coast that can be landed, but when a large number of Japanese invaders land, there are not many locations to choose from, and it is impossible not to have any news at all, and the Japanese can not be compared with the army.

"And there are two guards in Taicang, and the troops are not weak, while Songjiang Mansion only has a Jinshanwei, and Kunshan is even more ...... Why do you want to attack Taicang? ”

Qian Yuan stared at the map in confusion, and the middle-aged man on the side smiled and said the answer, "Liu Jiawan." ”

"Liujiawan?" Qian Yuan took the case, and suddenly was stunned again, "No, the county respected just now that there are three inspection divisions in Liujiawan, and a city has been built, and there are 500 soldiers of Suzhou Wei to guard it." ”

"There is no other possibility except for Liujiawan." The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "The current guards ...... soldiers."

Liu Jiawan was not famous in later generations, but it was famous in the Ming Dynasty, because the three treasure eunuchs set off from here for their seven voyages to the West.

Therefore, in the coastal area near Songjiang, the strongest defensive force is Liujiawan, which is also the reason why Qian Yuan did not expect it.

After being quiet for a while, Sun Kehong asked in a low voice, "Will the Japanese invade Jiading?" ”

"It's better to attack." Gui Youguang said angrily: "Otherwise, the Japanese will scatter and plunder, and the whole Taicang will be ruined." ”

Speaking of this, Gui Youguang glared at his disciple Shen Xingping, who shrank his head and said nothing.

"And that's not all."

"And that's not all!"

Two voices sounded at the same time, Qian Yuan and the middle-aged man glanced at each other, and the latter made a gesture of please.

"If it were me, I wouldn't attack Taicang, but go south, Yu Dayou will suffer from the enemy on his back, and then the entire Songjiang Mansion will be at my disposal." Qian Yuan licked his lips, "And Huating and Shanghai counties ...... It is much richer than Taicang Prefecture. ”

"So we are very unlucky to attack Jiading, but others may not think so."

The middle-aged man looked at Qian Yuan with interest, looked down at the map again, and nodded in agreement, "After all, it's Kou, and from Liujiagang, Taicang Prefecture is the closest, and the Japanese won't gnaw on Yu Dayou's hard bone." ”

"Yes." Qian Yuan muttered, "There is a chance that the Japanese will besiege the city. ”

The middle-aged man said again: "You are Qian Zheng's nephew Qian Yuan, I have heard your name." ”

Ignoring the snort of Gui Youguang on the side, the middle-aged man continued: "It seems that you really want to join the Fang Division in the future." ”

Qian Yuan blinked, this was a joke with Xingshi and Wang Chen in the governor's yamen.

"Wang Min should be praised by the DPRK and China for sending troops north, but Tan Zili is jumping to scold his mother." The middle-aged man laughed and said, "But you should also be scolded!" ”

Not to mention Gui Youguang and Shen Xingping, even Qian Yuan was a little inexplicable, only Sun Kehong was smiling bitterly.

"Poor Brother Yuan is going to be scolded when he goes back." Sun Kehong shook his head and said, "Elbow out!" ”

"Tan Zili is Yihuang Tan's family." The middle-aged man mentioned.

"That's my ......," Qian Yuan stammered.

"That's your brother-in-law." Sun Kehong gave the answer.

Why is Tan Lun, who is as famous as Qi Jiguang, my little uncle?

In other words, the idea I gave to Wang Chen at that time temporarily maintained the situation that the Ming army and the Japanese in Songjiang and Jiaxing could not hold each other, but I cheated my own brother-in-law?

Qian Yuan covered his head and felt a headache again, no wonder Wang Chen agreed so happily at that time!

After a moment of silence, Qian Yuan's gaze fell on the middle-aged man's face, "Haven't asked for advice yet?" ”

Gui Youguang coughed twice, "This is Zheng Ruozeng, Zheng Bolu, who is also from Kunshan." ”

"It was the fourteenth year of Jiajing, senior Zheng ......" Qian Yuan suddenly froze in the middle of the salute, "Zheng Ruozeng ......"

"Brother Yuan." Sun Kehong reminded in a low voice that it was very rude to call him by his name in front of others.

Qian Yuan suddenly came to his senses, smiled and saluted: "Senior Zheng, it is all up to you to defend the city this time." ”

Qian Yuan has never been a person who has the courage to do things, but at the critical moment, he will never shirk, and now he doesn't trust anyone in the city except Lu Bin, in fact, he can only trust Lu Bin, because except for Yang Wen under his command and a group of thugs led by Zhang San, the other soldiers are under Lu Bin.

But Qian Yuan can trust Zheng Ruozeng.

The reason is very simple, this person is very good, he is one of the most outstanding military strategists in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but his reputation is not good because he does not directly lead the army and has no official position.

Later generations believed that Hu Zongxian's "Preparation of the Sea Atlas" was considered to be an existence that no one could surpass in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but in fact it was Zheng Ruozeng's masterpiece.

Zheng Ruo once had an extremely important position in the southeast anti-Japanese war, and Hu Zongxian's shogunate was full of talents, such as Xu Wei and He Xinyin, who were famous all over the world, but Zheng Ruozeng was the most critical person, and he was also called "cloth military strategist" by later generations.

After a few words of greeting, Shen Xingping, who was unwilling to be lonely, brought up the topic that everyone was most concerned about, "Will the Japanese really attack Jiading?" ”

"It's very likely." Zheng Ruozeng sighed: "If it is to plunder the countryside, it is better to go south to Shanghai and Huating counties." ”

At this time, Qian Yuan, who saw Yang Wen waving outside, suddenly got up and went out.

"How?"

"It's them." Yang Wen said in a low voice: "Mr. Lu sent someone to see it, and what he sold was the batch of medicinal materials that we were robbed, and it was ......."

Qian Yuan squinted and took the jade pendant, rubbed it a few times, and said, "Found it in the pawnshop?" ”

"Yes." Yang Wen hesitated for a while and then said, "I think they are afraid of ......"

"Yes." Qian Yuan sneered: "It's true that there is a way in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door to hell for you to run into!" ”

Waving his hand to let Yang Wen prepare, Qian Yuan strode into the house, "Don't think about it, the Japanese will definitely attack Jiading." ”

"Why?"

The devil knows when the Wako will do it, and now it's time to race against the clock!

Ignoring Shen Xingping's question, Qian Yuan pulled Sun Kehong and left, if he did it in Jiading County, he would definitely not be able to bypass the host, and the Sun family would be able to move the Hu County Order.

"Headcatcher's surname?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." The tall man carried a long knife on his shoulder, looking nondescript, "Childe calls me Lao Wu." ”

"Okay, good, old Wu." Qian Yuan ignored the strange eyes of the county Cheng and Sun Kehong on the side, hugged Wu Zhutou and smiled: "Locals? ”

"Yes, yes, they have settled in Jiading County for seven or eight generations."

"Yes, head catcher, it's not the locals who have a foothold." Qian Yuan smiled again and asked, "Are you afraid?" ”

"It is our duty to resist the Japanese." Wu Zhutou's words were very neat, but his legs were a little trembling, and the county had sent people out of the city to inquire about the news, and he shirked it several times......

"Hey, who is not afraid, but it's okay, your parents, wife and children are behind you." Qian Yuan waved his hand, "By the way, Lao Wu, do you have any ...... in your hand Sweat pills? ”

Wu Zhu was dumbfounded, what did he say at this time......

"There's always a narcotic, right?" Qian Yuan frowned and said, "The kind used to shoot flowers, don't tell me I don't have it!" ”

Wu Zhutou peeked at the county Cheng, and asked with a wry smile: "Childe, this is what you want to ......?"

"Chengnan Inn." Qian Yuan waved his hand and called Yang Wen, "You lead the way, be careful." ”

Yang Wen, who finally borrowed a spear and waist knife from Lu Bin, was a little speechless, young master, this is a bit shameless.

And Zhang San on the side nodded again and again, this is the young master's style!
