Chapter 213: Discuss countermeasures
Li Shuang lowered his voice and said, "Didn't Kato say that there were their informants in our Dongyang County before?" Guess who he is? ”
Chen Zheng didn't have the slightest interest in guessing, and said very casually: "Could it be someone from the county government?" ”
"Huh? How did Brother Chen know? Could it be that Brother Chen also secretly went to listen last night? Li Shuang looked very surprised.
Chen Zheng was a little speechless and said, "Why am I going to listen if I have nothing to do?" I'm not idle. ”
Li Shuang and Xiao Zan rolled their eyes at the same time, and said in their hearts: Isn't it you who is usually idle and has nothing to do?
"What Brother Chen said is extremely true, that informant is Yang Xu, the fast hand of the county government." Li Shuang said, "Brother Chen, how did you guess that you are from the county government?" ”
"Hard to guess?" Chen Zheng asked rhetorically.
Li Shuang filled the three of them with tea again, and said, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
Chen Zheng picked up the tea, but this time he didn't take a sip, but took a small sip, moistened his throat, and said: "It's very simple, the pirates who haven't come to plunder for a long time suddenly appeared in the offshore waters, and they must have learned the news that the patrol ship in Dongyang County was not there." And the person who can get this news must be from the county government of Dongyang County, but who it is can't be speculated for a while. ”
"Brother Chen is strategizing, and my son admires it very much. Brother Li, let's replace wine with tea and toast Brother Chen. Xiao Zan praised.
Taking a sip of tea, Chen Zheng continued to ask: "Then Kato must be more than this secret, what else did he say?" ”
Li Shuang sighed and said, "The next thing is much more serious, the Fusang bandits' brigade will loot this county on the twenty-third of this month." ”
Chen Zheng frowned and asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”
"It should be no problem, the so-called dying of people is also good, then Kato knows that he will inevitably die, in order to alleviate the pain caused by the punishment, what he said must be true." Li Shuang said.
Xiao Zan also nodded and said, "Brother Li is right, my son was also present at the time, to be honest, the tiger chair made by Brother Chen is really ingenious, and the effect is very obvious." ”
"Brother Xiao, after all, that torture instrument is a murder weapon, an unlucky thing, so you must not study it too much." Chen Zheng hurriedly said.
Chen Zheng didn't want to, this Xiao Zan eventually grew into a tyrant because of his research on torture tools.
Xiao Zan snorted, seemingly unconcerned, but he didn't continue to dwell too much on this issue, and instead said, "Brother Chen suspects that Kato is telling a lie?" ”
"True and false, false and real. If you want to prove whether what Kato said is true or false, you can only wait until four days later. Chen Zhengdao.
"How can this work?" Xiao Zan frowned and said, "We can't do nothing, just wait for the Fusang bandits to come and loot, right?" ”
Li Shuang nodded and said, "Yes, if that Kato deceived us, and there were no pirates coming at all, then it would be better; If there are really pirates, it will kill people. ”
Chen Zheng waved his hand and said, "The two of you misunderstood the meaning of the next, the Fusang bandit is perverted in his heart, what he said may be true, but this time is not necessarily." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Shuang was a little puzzled.
Chen Zhengnai relented and explained: "Kato said that on the 23rd of this month, the bandit brigade will kill Dongyang County. In fact, it is possible that it will be killed at twenty-two. ”
"Huh? Is this true? Li Shuang couldn't believe it.
Chen Zheng nodded and said, "I have been caught by those pirates, I have had intimate contact with them, and I know them very well, and I can't fully believe what they do at any time." ”
"So, we only have two days to prepare." Xiao Zan licked his tongue, looking particularly excited.
Chen Zheng glanced at Xiao Zan and said, "Brother Xiao, do you have any good suggestions?" ”
Xiao Zan listened, and was about to speak, but he was stunned, he just thought that if the bandits came, he would fight with them happily, but he really didn't think about how to fight.
This time the bandits must be menacing, Dongyang County is the time when the garrison is empty, if it is hard, it will definitely not get good fruits to eat, and it must be outwitted.
However, if it is not Xiao Zan's director, he can't say one, two, or three.
After pondering for a long time, Xiao Zan said: "You can only outwit, not be invincible!" I wonder what the two of you have planned? ”
Xiao Zan was very satisfied with his success in throwing the pot out, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked at the two of them triumphantly, waiting for Chen Zheng and Li Shuang to come up with ideas.
Li Shuang thought for a while, slapped the table, and said, "The wall is clear!" ”
Xiao Zan and Chen Zheng were both startled by Li Shuang slapping the table, and it took a long time to come to their senses.
"How's my plan to clear the wilderness?" Li Shuang asked, "As long as all the people outside the city are moved to the city, even if the water and sea bandits come, they will not be able to grab anything, and they will mobilize the people in vain." Hey. ”
Xiao Zan listened, but shook his head and said, "This is too cowardly, just a bandit, retreat without a fight, this is not the work of the big husband." ”
Looking at Xiao Zan's arrogant appearance, Li Shuang pursed his lips and said, "Brother Xiao, we don't have any soldiers or generals now, how can we fight them?" ”
Xiao Zan still disagreed, Li Shuang turned to Chen Zheng for help, and said, "Brother Chen, tell me if this method of clearing the wilderness is the safest." ”
Chen Zheng saw that the two of them were looking at him, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother Li's strategy is the most stable in theory, but when it is implemented, it may not achieve the desired effect." ”
Xiao Zan was overjoyed and said, "Look, even Brother Chen is not optimistic about your strategy, so let's change it." ”
Li Shuang was obviously a little disappointed, and asked in a low voice, "Why?" ”
Chen Zheng took a sip of tea and explained: "First, there are still three days left, can you complete the clear field of the strong wall? If the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness is implemented, not only people will enter the city, but also materials will enter the city, otherwise the light people will go in and leave the things behind, won't this wait for the property to be given to the pirates in vain? ”
"Yes, there is simply no time to transfer." Xiao Zan hurriedly agreed.
"Second, even if the people are very cooperative, we have transferred people and goods into the city within three days, and after the bandits came, they were so angry that they destroyed all the houses and fields outside the city, can we just watch?" Chen Zheng continued.
"Of course not!" Xiao Zan continued.
After Li Shuang heard this, he also felt that his thinking was a little simpler, and asked a little dejectedly: "Then what should we do?" Go desperately? ”
"Fight it! Just pirates, can we still be afraid of them? Xiao Zan said indifferently.
Chen Zheng glanced at Xiao Zan and said, "Brother Xiao, any of us can work hard, but you can't work hard, if you go hard, more people will die for you." ”
Chen Zheng's words, like a tongue twister, directly listened to Xiao Zan, so he asked, "Then Brother Chen has any good plans?" ”
