"It's basically okay, it's just ......"

"What does it mean to be basically okay, and what is it?" Gongsun Jian is really on fire now. Ma Dan, Wu Jun is about to fight, and you are still here and Lao Tzu and refuse to tell the truth.

Cao Gang was also taken aback by Gongsun Jian. Although he is a side branch of the Cao family, he has also heard of the name of Gongsun Jian.

"Father-in-law." Cao Gang did not call Gongsun Jian an official position, after all, Gongsun Jian was only a ninth rank, and he was a partial general of the fifth rank. But now the blind can see that the entire Linshui County is Gongsun Jian alone.

"My more than 500 brothers must have listened to me, and they are all fighting power. But not so with others. You may also know that different subordinates in the military are different from superiors. ”

"Hmm." Gongsun Jian touched his chin, and he understood what Cao Gang said. This is also the reason why Cao Gang was the only one who came to the defeated generals at today's meeting. Don't look at the defeat of others, but they don't take you, a little county lieutenant, seriously. Fortunately, Gongsun Sword is not rare, even if those defeated troops are given to him, he may not necessarily use them.

"General Cao, take your men and brothers and find a place to camp on the west side of the north of the county seat. Grain and grass are supplied by me, and if there is a shortage of weapons and armor, it will also be reported to Liu Zhixian. I'll find a way to make it up for you when I go back. ”

"Gongzi Xie." Cao Gang got up and bowed to Gongsun Jian.

"No thanks. General Cao, I am giving you these to let your people fight against the Wu army with my people. It's not just a free gift. Do you understand? ”

"It's clear below." Cao Gang nodded. In fact, Gongsun Jian didn't say that he would do the same, after all, the Cao family was in Linshui County. Because of the invasion of the Wu State, the Cao family has moved from the manor-style dock fort outside the city to Linshui County.

"That's good." Gongsun Jian nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "In addition, please ask General Cao to invite the generals of other armies for me." Gong wanted to treat them to a meal. ”

"Childe, don't you want to invite them to fight the enemy together?" Cao Gang asked curiously.

"No, I don't need them, but I need their soldiers. If they are good at talking, I will give them a way to live, and if they are not good at talking, I will send them directly to Hades. Gongsun Jianfeng said lightly, but Cao Gang was already sweating on his back. This legendary madman really lives up to his name. At this time, what he actually wanted was not to unite and win over those generals in the army, but to seize military power and kill all those generals directly. Don't say you're a county lieutenant, even if you're a prefect, you don't dare to do this!

Gongsun Jian didn't pay attention to what Cao Gang thought, looked at Qi Shi on the side and said, "Old Qi, from today onwards, this Linshui County will be handed over to you." If something goes wrong, you don't need to come back to me. There's no need to commit suicide or anything. Unsightly! After all, let's go back to your hometown and live with your wife and children. ”

"My lord, I forgot to tell you that my old wife and two sons had already arrived in Linshui County yesterday." Qi Shi knelt down on one knee at Gongsun Jian and said, "My lord, please rest assured, unless my old Qi dies in battle, I will never let the enemy enter Linshui County alone." ”

Gongsun Jian ignored him, his wife and children came, what else did he say?

In fact, Qi Shi wrote back to his hometown to tell his wife that he had brought his children to enjoy happiness because of the prosperous scene in Linshui County a few days ago, after all, he is also small now. But who would have thought that the road was far away and inconvenient, but the country of Wu suddenly came over.

"Zhao Changle, you are responsible for cooperating with Lao Qi. If Lao Qi dies in battle, you will take over his position. Gongsun Jian continued to issue orders with a blank face.

"Yes, my subordinates obey." Zhao Changle also came out of the queue and knelt down on one knee and agreed.

"Lao Liu! You and Mr. Feng stayed in the county seat and helped Lao Qi and Changle do the logistics work. In addition, the workers of our factories and workshops and the people of the city depend on the two of you. ”

"Childe, don't worry, I, Liu Dayuan, am also the parent official of this Linshui County. At this time, I will never leave the people of the whole county behind. Liu Dayuan said generously: "But listen to Gongzi, what do you mean, are you preparing to go out of the city?" ”

"Hmm. There were 500 militia regiments and 1,000 recruited soldiers in the city to obey the command of Lao Qi to defend the city. Lao Ma and I took the rest of the militia of more than 600 people out of the city to meet the other party. ”

"Childe, this can't be helped!" Liu Dayuan was taken aback by Gongsun Jian's words.

If you have six or seven thousand people to fight, I'm afraid it's about the same, and if you have six or seven hundred people to meet the six thousand people of the pioneers, isn't that looking for death? Even Feng Huaidao frowned when he heard this, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade: "Lord, this is unacceptable!" Let's defend the city and wait for the imperial reinforcements, maybe there is still hope for victory, but if we go out of the city, I'm afraid it will ......."

Gongsun Jian waved his hand disapprovingly to stop Feng Huaidao's remaining words. Then he glanced at everyone present. Smiled slightly.

"Lord Zhang. Now that the army of Wu is approaching, let the past pass. I also hope that after I go out of the city to meet the enemy, you can help Liu Zhixian. ”

When Zhang Han heard this, he got up and clasped his fists and saluted: "Lieutenant Gongxian, this is Zhang Han's business. It's just that I think what Liu Zhixian and Mr. Feng said is indeed reasonable, why do you want to go out to fight with the other party without guarding the county seat? ”

Gongsun Jian didn't answer his question, but looked at Hu Tianyi and said, "Captain Hu, do you dare to go out of the city with me to meet the Wu army?" ”

Hearing this, Hu Tianyi stood up and hugged his fists and said, "I don't dare to ask for it." ”

"Hahaha, good! Gong Mou has a jar of good wine, if he can come back alive, Hu Xiaowei's friend Gong Mou must hand it over. ”

"Lieutenant Gongxian, Huang also wants to go out of the city with you to meet the enemy." Huang Wenyuan unexpectedly stood up and took the initiative to ask for help. And everyone else was stunned, Hu Tianyi is a military general, what are you a literati jumping out to make a fuss?

"Good! Lord Huang is so guts. Since you're not afraid of death, so what's the matter with you! Gongsun Jian laughed and stood up. looked at the people who stood up with him present, and said sonorously: "This battle will be won!" Whoever dares to touch Lao Tzu's cake, Lao Tzu must let him know what pain is! ”

Gongsun Jian unified and integrated all the forces that could be used in Linshui County in the shortest possible time. But it doesn't matter if there are dissenting opinions and those who don't obey orders, just kill them. For example, the heads of the defeated generals outside the city are still hanging on the city tower dripping blood.

The garrison task of Linshui County was handed over to Qi Shi and Zhao Changle. Liu Dayuan, Feng Huaidao and Zhang Han were in charge of organizing the logistics. The Cao family also donated a lot of money and food to encourage everyone to defend Linshui County to the death.

The defeated army outside the city was all dismissed by Gongsun Jian on the spot. The old, weak, sick and disabled went home on their own for a tael of silver each. And the young and strong ones are the same, but if they are willing to stay and follow Gongsun Jian, then give another tael of silver. However, the ugly words are said in the front, and if you dare to disobey orders or run away on the battlefield, then don't blame the county lieutenant for being black-hearted.

It took two days to finish this, and Xie Wu sent information that the forward of the Wu army was less than fifty miles away from Linshui County.

Gongsun Jian divided the defeated army of about 1,000 people at the border pass into two groups, one group was led by Cao Gang, and the other group was handed over to Tian Kuo, and he gave Tian Kuo fifty sergeants of the militia group. Cao Gang's group held on to the warehouse outside the West Gate, and retreated to the south if they couldn't beat it. Tian Kuo's men set up camp twenty miles east of the city, and when the enemy came, they ran, and when the enemy retreated, they were stationed again, in short, they kept a distance and did not confront the other party head-on, so that the other party did not dare to easily surround Linshui County and attack the city from several directions. In this way, the main forces of the other party are all concentrated in Beicheng.

Although this approach will allow the opponent to concentrate their forces on one point, it will bring great pressure to defend the city. But there are only 1,500 people in the city, and 1,000 of them are all newly recruited, and it is already the best result to be able to use them without spreading them out. Otherwise, it will be a question whether Linshui County can last for a day.

Gongsun Jian left Linshui County with Ma Teng and others and more than 600 sergeants from the militia group, more than 30 Jin Longwei under Hu Tianyi and more than 10 Ye Bushu under Xie Wu.

"What the hell are we going to do, my lord?" Leaving Linshui County, Ding Feng couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, this son will take you to fight guerrillas." Gongsun Jian smiled and replied: "The way of guerrilla is the royal way in the world where the weak defeat the strong. Although it is unpredictable, its root lies in the essence of the sixteen-character mantra. ”

"Oh? Isn't that the art of war? Ma Teng also leaned over from the side and asked.

"Well, so to speak!" Gongsun Jian smiled and nodded. But he pretended to be mysterious and stopped talking. provoked Hu Tianyi on the side to itch in his heart.

Just when a few people were thinking about how to learn the way of guerrilla from Gongsun Jian, Xie Wu, who was in charge of reconnaissance in front, came back to report.

"My lord, the Wu army has set up camp fifteen miles away."

"Didn't find our scouts?" Gongsun Jian asked.

"No, the brethren scattered, and a few made a detour to the rear of the enemy to find out what was going on. I personally investigated the strikers. It is estimated that there are at least 5,000 people. The opponent's commander is a veteran, the military discipline is very good, and the team is always very compact during the march, without a trace of gaps and disjoints. If we want to sneak attack, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult. ”

"Hmm." Gongsun Jian nodded and said, "Then attack directly." ”

"What?" Several people were all stupid.

It's crazy! 600 people to take the initiative to attack more than 5,000 people? What is the difference between this and suicide?

Gongsun Jian looked up at the sky, and then asked Xie Wu on the side, "Can we rush to the other party's camp before dark?" ”

"Yes." Xie Wu nodded.

"It's just that my lord, it's almost dark when we get there. I'm afraid I can't fight this battle. ”

"It's okay, I was just joking. Let's scold each other. Maybe the other party will feel ashamed after hearing this and withdraw the troops! ”

"Poof......" At this time, Ma Teng couldn't hold back at all. I almost didn't kneel down for Gongsun Jian. Fortunately, I have been following Gongsun Jian for so long, and I know that although Gongsun Jian said so, he must have a plan in his heart.

When it was almost completely dark, Gongsun Jian finally arrived at the location where the vanguard of the Wu army was encamped with his men. Without Gongsun Jian saying hello, the other party's main general, the vanguard general, Han Dewei, had already received the scout's notice. Take your retinue and personal soldiers to the outside of the camp gate and see.

As soon as he saw that someone on the other side came out, Gongsun Jian smiled and urged him to step forward.

"The other party is a friend of Wu Guo?" Gongsun Jian asked loudly.

Friend? Han Dewei muttered in his heart, what kind of routine is this?

"If you get lost, just say it, and I'll send someone to send you back to Wu when you get back." Gongsun Jian continued his performance.

"But if you don't leave, we won't have so much food to eat. There's a charge. ”

Depend on!

Only then did Han Dewei understand that there was a madman on the other side. Who the hell are you meowing? With hundreds of people, they actually rushed to provoke themselves?

But before he could speak, Gongsun Jian turned around and went back. suffocated Han Dewei half to death. But it's basically getting dark, so you can't gather people and horses to chase and kill each other at this time, right?

The biggest obstacle to night warfare in ancient times was the problem of sight. Although Gongsun Jian has not read a few amnesia novels, as a professional soldier, he still has this knowledge. It is nothing more than 'night blindness' caused by the lack of vitamin A in the diet on weekdays, and eating more animal offal, eggs, and dairy products will automatically recover. And the more than 600 people he brought were all strictly screened and trained, especially when the militia group was training on weekdays, all kinds of nutrients were supplemented. And then suddenly gather at night and fully armed for ten kilometers is almost a must-have subject, and you will be afraid of a field battle with the other party?
