Ma Gui is the highest-ranking person in Desheng Fort except for Ma Wei, and serves as the commander of Wei Yuanwei as the garrison of Desheng Fort. From the official point of view, it is naturally completely qualified for him to personally lead the high-level pragmatic cavalry to attack - because Ma Wei is a general, he has been banned from leaving the customs by Wang Chonggu to prevent being captured, if Ma Gui is not qualified enough, there will be no qualified person present.

Due to the differences in various places, it is difficult to represent anything, but the rank of the guard is a measure of the rank of the military generals in the Ming Dynasty.

And in terms of qualifications and merits, although Ma Guinian was weak, he joined the army with his father at the age of thirteen, and has been fighting dozens of battles for nearly eight years. His commander was shot by himself, but it was not hereditary - his father Ma Lu's guard post was inherited by Ma Gui's brother Ma Jin, so Ma Jin has now become a deputy general.

Then there is no way to shirk it, after all, General Magui must have a rank, a background, a qualification, and merit...... There's really no excuse to come by.

So in the next meeting, the direction of the wind changed completely, and first discussed how to temporarily equip the "Gao Jiajun" with all the equipment that should be matched, and Gao Shishi, who was really unavoidable, simply called Gao Mo and Gao Jue to the meeting together.

Then he began to discuss tactical issues such as the time of dispatch and the direction of the attack, and Gao Shishi, who had already admitted it, knew that he could not intervene in this specific tactic, so he simply left it to Ma Wei, Ma Gui, Gao Mo, Gao Jue and others to negotiate on their own.

Anyway, the final result was that Ma Gui took his 300 Jiading and Gao Pragmatic 800 Jiading with a total of 1,100 people, went around Zhenqiang Fort, about 20 miles east of Daodaosheng Fort, left the pass at 2 o'clock in the ugly hour, detoured to the west to arrive at the predetermined place of the sneak attack, and launched a night attack at about 2 o'clock in the morning.

This point in time is about two o'clock in the morning to leave the customs and launch a night attack at four o'clock in the morning.

Even if Gao Shishi does not know much about real military affairs, he also knows the advantages of this choice, because four or five o'clock in the morning is the time when people sleep the deepest, and launching a night attack at this time is the most sudden and dangerous.

Of course, it is not easy to launch such a night attack in this era, because night blindness is a relatively common phenomenon in this era of living standards. However, whether it is the Ma family army or the "Gao family army", the treatment level of these family members is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.

In particular, because Gao Pragmatic had the experience of gym workout in his previous life, he spent some time on the knowledge of diet matching. His subordinate family members, no matter how they ride on foot or what their combat effectiveness is, at least in terms of nutritional matching, they should be the number one in Daming - there is no night blindness.

When Gao Pragmatic returned to Qin Xingyuan after the meeting, Huang Mengyu originally planned to personally supervise the lieutenant gun supervisor of Desheng Fort to choose some three-eyed guns and armor in the best condition for the Gao family, but seeing that Gao Pragmatic was a little depressed, he gave up this idea, just gave a serious advice to the little eunuch who ordered the order, and went back with him.

Desheng Fort is not a big place, the so-called Qin Cha Xingyuan is actually a relatively clean inn, Huang Dazhen Shoufu came to Desheng Fort when he said that he wanted to stay here at the same time as Qin Cha. As for the reason, Huang Dazhen Shou said that one is to live closer to have things to ask for instructions and report in time, and the other is to save money for the imperial court...... It is really a model for courtiers and an elite for eunuchs.

At the moment, Qin Cha's face was not good, and Huang Dazhenshou naturally wanted to shush the cold and ask for warmth to see what was going on. So as soon as the two returned to the inn, Huang Dazhen immediately motioned for everyone else to go out, and then bowed slightly and asked, "Gao Shishu, but are you worried about the loss of your family?" ”

Gao Shiyu naturally couldn't admit that he was stingy, and immediately denied it: "That's not it, I'm just worried that my family has no experience in battle formations, and they all rely on their appearance to bluff people, and I don't know if the sneak attack can be successful this time. ”

Huang Mengyu didn't know whether Gao Shishi's words were true or false, so he could only comfort him according to his meaning: "Although I have never led soldiers, I have seen a lot. ”

"How so?"

Huang Mengyu said with a smile: "Although the old man is very good, but for so many years, almost all of him took the initiative to fight us, like this time by our Ming official army took the initiative to attack, it was still many years ago, it is estimated that the old man has not had much vigilance for a long time." ”

Gao pragmatic thought about it and admitted that there was this possibility, but he still felt a little unsure in his heart. Huang Mengyu then said: "Then there is, Ma Gui brought his three hundred family members with him...... Gao Shiyu, those three hundred soldiers are his housekeeping capital, if he is not sure enough, he will not dare to squander it easily, so this attack, if everything goes well, then there is no need to say anything. If there is a discord, my old Huang will definitely withdraw to the customs as soon as possible, and it is impossible for him to stupidly take a thousand people to fight to the death with tens of thousands of troops - if he is such a fool, he will die at least dozens of times in the past seven or eight years of fighting. ”

This reason is highly pragmatic and reluctantly acceptable, but I am a little worried in my heart, in case something is really discordant, Ma Gui, this kid should not use my family as cannon fodder to cover his own family running away, right?

Although Ma Gui was a famous general of the Wanli Dynasty in the original history, the three major campaigns of Wanli did not fall and played the whole game, it was simply a Grand Slam player, and he has always been known for his ability to fight, but ...... Whether he sold his teammates or not, Gao Shiyu doesn't remember it so clearly. And according to Gao Shiyu's consistent thinking of thinking about unfamiliar people in the worst ways, naturally he can't be completely at ease.

But after thinking about it, he was relieved again, anyway, it was in this situation, it was definitely not okay to break his promise and get fat, so he could only use Ah Q's spirit to cheer himself up: it was the first final exam of the cavalry unit of the Jiading Guard Regiment, and there was an experienced teacher with guidance, and if he didn't take the exam well, he could only blame himself for not being good at learning.

Huang Mengyu saw that Gao Shishi's face finally looked a lot better, and quickly changed the topic: "Gao Shiyu, when we launch a surprise attack here, is Ma Zongrong's side also fast?" ”

Gao pragmatic quickly calculated in his heart, and said: "Almost, our side will start tomorrow night, and Ma Zongrong's side should be the afternoon after tomorrow according to the plan - if everything goes well, I will definitely wait until the day to launch an attack on our Desheng Fort after the attack on this side, so that even if they get the news that the left wing was defeated or severely defeated by Ma Zongrong, it will be too late to reinforce." ”
