Chapter 8 Strategies for Defending the City
A group of generals walked out of the lobby quickly, Liu Fangang sat down on the bench in the side hall with Tian Lushuai and Ma Youlai, and someone next to him patted Liu Fan heavily and said, "Boy, you are famous, if you can succeed this time and drive out the Khitan robbers, I think all the girls in Liangzhou City want to marry you." ”
The three of them immediately stood up and saluted Zhang Zhen, Wang Kai and the 'ladyboy' standing in front, Wang Kai bowed and said, "Don't mind the three of you, I'm like this, I can't control my mouth, I have no intentions, please take care of the three of you." ”
Tian Lushuai said with a smile, "What's the point, once you go to the battlefield, you are still a brother of life and death." ”
After listening to Tian Lvshuai's words, Wang Kai immediately continued: "Tian Lvshuai's words really speak to the hearts of his brothers, so with these words, I will go back and invite the three of us to have a drink." ”
The 'ladyboy' next to him smiled lightly, "Uncle Zhang, isn't what you said just now a bit too exaggerated, although General Xiao Liu is tall and mighty, comparable to Guan Gong, but not everyone likes his style, right?" ”
"I just like it, what's up, don't worry, boy, I'll marry my daughter to you when I go back."
Wang Kai smiled, "Haha, Xiao Liu, you have made a lot of money, why don't you hurry up and thank your father-in-law." Then he whispered to Tian Lushuai and Ma You, "Last time he insisted on marrying his daughter to me, and I was so scared that I almost went to the Iron Buddha Temple to become a monk." ”
Hearing Wang Kai's words, several people laughed together, Zhang Zhen was furious when he heard it, kicked it over and didn't kick it, and said while scolding, "Don't listen to his nonsense, my little Nicole is good-looking, and she really looks like a closed moon." The crowd burst into laughter again.
As he was saying that he was happy, he saw a guard enter the side hall and loudly announce that everyone would join the school.
When everyone sat down, Guo Huaide didn't say anything more, raised his head and whispered to the side, "Shijun announces." ”
As he spoke, the hall was silent, and the general called Shijun had a solemn face, first saluted Guo Huaide, turned around and picked up an official document and walked to the front of the handsome case, and read it out loud:
Jun order of the command of the right army of the Great Qi Battalion, top secret!

Order: The headquarters of the Right Route Army will withdraw from Ganzhou with immediate effect, and a temporary headquarters will be set up in the east of Ganzhou City, and the two brigades of the Shenwu Army A and C and the garrison battalion of the headquarters will jointly undertake the combat mission on the eastern front of Ganzhou.
Order: The remaining five brigades of the Shenwu Army are under the command of Sima Duwei Zhang Zhen, and from now on, they will be on standby in the deep and deep areas south of Ganzhou. Order: The three brigades of the Shenwei Army and the remaining two brigades of the Ganzhou Army, a total of five brigades, were commanded by General Feng Xian to be concealed and waited by in the deep and deep north of Ganzhou. During the standby period, bring your own cooked food, and do not make noise or raise fires.
Order: After completing the set task, the Ganzhou Army A Brigade immediately entered the underground secret passage before the defenders retreated, and sneaked out of the secret passage at the beginning of the night of the 16th, set fire to the city, and waited for an opportunity to open the city gate.

As soon as the attacking forces were on fire in the city, they immediately launched a full-scale attack. In addition, the attacking troops in each direction should prepare an appropriate number of ladders in case of emergency.
This order, the General Headquarters of the Right Route Army Guo.
Great Qi solstice and August 14 of the fifth year
After the general named Shijun finished announcing, Guo Huaide stood up and said in a deep voice: "Everyone is clear", and the generals said in unison: "It's clear."
Suddenly, a voice said, "Uncle Guo, I want to stay in Ganzhou." ”
Guo Huaide immediately said: "Nonsense, this is the order set by the command, it can be changed at will, you follow the command to study military affairs." ”
I saw the ladyboy general on the opposite side pouting, his face full of reluctance, and several people in the forbidden army looked like they wanted to laugh.
After that, Guo Huaide said in a deep voice, word by word, "Before the end of the meeting, I also want to remind the defending and containing troops to grasp the four words of 'luring the enemy into depth', which is the core of winning this battle. In addition, as soon as the restraining troops retreated, they immediately retreated to the east line of Ganzhou City in an orderly manner. ”
"Please generals, in the coming battle, forge ahead bravely, and fight for the Holy Lord and the well-being of the billions of people in Daqi. In particular, the Jincheng Army Brigade A and the Shenwu Army Brigade B. ”
Guo Huaide looked at Wang Kai and Liu Fan, the two of them immediately stood up solemnly, Guo Huaide paused and joked, "Everyone must help my right army chop Nu and Ge Dan, if you can't chop him, I will chop you." ”
On the way back, Tian Lushuai hugged Liu Fan's shoulders with emotion and said, "It's not easy, in the history of the Northwest Camp and even Daqi, I have never heard that a small colonel's suggestion was completely moved and used in a big battle, how can you make me, Lao Qi, these old guys embarrassed." ”
Because of the rush back and forth, plus the time spent on meals and other meals, it was not until about two o'clock in Haizheng that the first brigade all entered the city of Ganzhou.
Liu Fan's original expectation was that seven or eight troops would change their guards, and the people would evacuate, and there must be a busy scene of people shouting horses and neighing inside and outside the city, but unexpectedly, not only was everything in order when entering the city, but even the inspection and inspection of the A Brigade on the march was no less than in the morning.
In Liu Fan's historical knowledge of another world, whether it was the Qin army, the Han army, and the Tang army that shook the world, or the Mongolian iron hoof that swept through Europe and Asia, he had never heard that the army discipline could be comparable to the national army before Liu Fan's crossing, but it was only as if the Beiwei army and the Qi family army could be strictly disciplined and forbidden, which made Liu Fan have a higher understanding of the discipline and organization of the ancient army.
After entering the city, Qi Boyuan convened a brief meeting of officers above the battalion level of the garrison troops, and made a clear division of labor for the next two days of city defense: "The two battalions of the Jincheng Army A Brigade are led by the brigade commander Sun Wannian to be responsible for the defense of the southern city wall, taking into account the southern section of the eastern city wall, of which the ugly battalion is the reserve; The two battalions of the Jincheng Army A Brigade were led by Liu Fan to be responsible for the defense of the southern section of the west city wall, of which the Mao battalion was the reserve; The two battalions of the second brigade of the Shenwu Army were led by Wang Kai to be responsible for the defense of the northern section of the western city wall, of which the ugly battalion was the reserve; The second battalion of the second brigade of the Shenwu Army is led by the deputy brigade commander to be responsible for the defense of the north city wall, taking into account the northern section of the east city wall, of which the Mao battalion is the reserve. Qi Boyuan is the commander-in-chief and coordinates the affairs of all parties.
After the meeting, under the leadership of the independent officers, the troops quickly counted the equipment for defending the city and deployed the important tasks of defending the city.
After everything was completed, a group of generals and colonels inspected the city defense again under the leadership of Qi Boyuan and Wei Wenyuan. On the way, according to Wei Wenyuan, the circumference of this Ganzhou city is about more than nine miles, the height of the city is about three zhang and three points, the thickness is three zhang and seven minutes, the four gates and the four corners are respectively equipped with gatehouses and arrow towers, and there are moats built around the city, two zhang seven minutes deep, three zhang and two points wide.
