Fortresses are often breached from within.

Unlike Zuo Liangyu, Hu Dawei, and Liu Zeqing, including the head of the army that was more than ninety percent of the Ming Dynasty at this time and was built with soldiers as the skeleton, Xu Changqing's model army, although it has not really divided the land, is a real tun army!

Because more than ninety percent of the families of these soldiers are under Xu Changqing's control.

The biggest difference between the soldiers and the soldiers is that the soldiers are 'paid as soldiers', and they earn this money for their lives, and their families are scattered and not necessarily controlled by the main general.

This means that if someone makes a higher offer, or if there is a huge difficulty, many things are not under the control of the Lord.

Then again.

In fact, the core military system of the Ming Dynasty at this time is still the cantonment system!

Because the core theme of this kind of warrior skeleton needs the generals' families to maintain, lead, soothe, and suppress!

And these family members are basically the commander's troops.

At this time, the real main combat force of the Ming Dynasty was the garrison, except for Xu Changqing, I am afraid that there are only the Wu family and the ancestral family in western Liaoning.

This is also why Zu Dashou's father and son brothers can hold out in Jinzhou for so long, and when the Qing army entered the customs, Wu Sangui was able to play the core role of Dingding.

Everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, a community of interests, and they will naturally work together.

At this time, because he controlled the families of the officers and soldiers of the model army, coupled with Xu Changqing's huge prestige and influence, the structure of the model army was relatively perfect, close to the modern army, and Xu Changqing was still relatively relieved about the army.

But human nature is the most complex thing in the world.

This kind of thing, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, in the current state of affairs, Xu Changqing will naturally increase his control in this regard.

As long as the interior can be stabilized, with Xu Changqing's food and salary military posture at this time, Xu Changqing is completely worthy of the homeless army that does not have heavy firearms such as red-coated cannons outside!

……

In the morning, Xu Changqing walked all over the various garrisons of the position in turn, went deep into the grassroots soldiers, laughed and chatted with them, solved their difficulties, and got up to feel the state of the troops.

After lunch at noon, Xu Changqing also began to focus on Hu Zhenwu's gang outside.

They were all tired at this time, most of them were huddled in the trenches to make up for sleep, only a few were on duty, and a few were still chatting with the model soldiers in their vicinity.

Everything is very normal.

This also made Xu Changqing relax a little, as long as these people don't act as demons, Xu Changqing will definitely not target them, let these people get out of the way as soon as possible.

Of course, there must be no shortage of vigilance.

At this time, Xu Changqing was not at ease with any part of the Ming army.

The afternoon time was uneventful.

At this time, the exile army has completely occupied the initiative in the area of Zhuxian Town, and many hungry cannon fodder are in groups, rummaging through the battlefield over and over again, wanting to make some money, and sometimes there are fights, which is no different from the crossing of ants.

For this, Xu Changqing's mentality has completely calmed down.

Although the model army is a lone army at this time, but the time and place are favorable, and the back is against the Shahe, until the final moment is really irretrievable, Xu Changqing will never give up easily.

In the evening, Xu Changqing was eating with Chu Xue and Zuo Mengmei, and Hu Zhenwu's gang finally threw out the moths!

Zhao Zengjin personally came over to report to Xu Changqing: "Dashuai, those people don't want to leave tonight, they want to leave tomorrow morning." They must have a problem, I guess! ”

Xu Changqing's brows also furrowed, and he thought for a while and said, "What reason did they use?" ”

Zhao Zengjin sneered: "They think it will rain tonight, and it is dangerous to leave at night, Dashuai, do you want to start first and take the lead and bring all these miscellaneous pieces to fruition!" ”

Because of Xu Changqing's reminder, Zhao Zengjin was preconceived, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt that these people were not pleasing to the eye.

Xu Changqing thought for a while and shook his head, "After all, they are my Ming army, so they can't be rash." Zengjin, you have worked hard tonight, keep an eye on me! If they were going to do it, it would be in the middle of the night or dawn! You let the sons take turns to rest, make sure. Energy. Tonight, I'm going to stare at it too! ”

"Yes!"

……

Zhao Zengjin left, and Xu Changqing summoned Xu Xiu and Zhang Dagong to have a short meeting to warn about the rout.

This also made Xu Xiu and everyone instantly lift their spirits and come to the fighting spirit.

Soon, the entire Model Army position began to secretly move frequently, like a huge giant beast, began to enter orbit.

At the beginning of the evening, at nine o'clock in the evening, a few rays of lightning drifted through the sky, and then a rumbling thunder arrived, and it began to rain.

The rain was not small, and Hu Zhenwu's gang of routs began to sprout moths again, asking for shelter from the rain.

Zhao Zengjin definitely didn't give it, and there was a quarrel between the two sides.

Xu Changqing watched with Chu Xue and Zuo Mengmei under the shed not far away at this time, and after thinking for a while, he asked Zhao Zengjin to provide them with some pine branches and let them build their own sheds.

This also brought Xu Changqing's vigilance to the top!

I don't know when the rain will stop.

Even if the rain stops, in this humid weather, many of the firearms of the Model Army will be affected, in other words, once this gang of people makes trouble tonight, the soldiers of the Model Army will most likely have to fight with them hand-to-hand!

But they are not the hungry cannon fodder of the outcasts, but the elite!

After thinking for a while, Xu Changqing beckoned Zhang Dagong and Li Zhu again, and whispered in a low voice.

Both of them were a little confused, but they quickly reacted and quickly went to work.

Xu Changqing also took Chu Xue and Zuo Mengmei back to the high viewing platform on the top of the mountain, condescendingly overlooking the mountain against the backdrop of many fires.

After Hu Zhenwu and the others got the pine branches, they soon began to build a shack in the trench, because of the barrier of the earthen wall, although Xu Changqing did not see enough detail at this time, he faintly saw that many of their pine branches had risen over the earthen wall.

Obviously, they built the shed very high!

This time, if they build any auxiliary facilities under the shed, the model soldiers on the earthen wall will not be able to see it.

However, even if they had erected sheds and there was no drain in the trenches, it would have been inevitable that they would have soaked in the water tonight, and they would have cursed and cursed.

But what the gang didn't notice was that Zhang Dagong and Li Zhu also began to build sheds in the model army position behind the earthen wall at this time.

In the midst of this noise mixed with thunder, time quietly came to the middle of the sub-hour.

Chu Xue and Zuo Mengmei are girls after all, and they are already tired, but Xu Changqing doesn't leave, and they don't want to go, they want to accompany Xu Changqing in their way.

Especially Zuo Mengmei, looking at Xu Changqing's gaze was full of complexity that was difficult to describe.

At this time, she finally understood why Xu Changqing was so old, and she had come to a terrifying position at this time.

He is almost personally involved in many affairs in the camp, but he is never arbitrary, and has always left a lot of room for his subordinates.

Moreover, Xu Changqing has almost no shelves, and can even call out the names of many ordinary soldiers.

Zuo Mengmei grew up with Zuo Liangyu since she was a child, she is not an ordinary girl who has never seen the world, and she understands how different Xu Changqing's way is from her father Zuo Liangyu.

It is no exaggeration to say that this army is completely in the hands of this man!

At this time, even if they are few people, they are alone.

But if the Wandering Army wants to get a bargain from Xu Changqing and the Model Army, I'm afraid, it will not be easy!

Seeing that there were already many places on the two girls that were wet by the rain, Xu Changqing touched their pretty faces separately, found that they were a little cold, and said with a smile: "Sister, Mengmei, you go back to rest first." Tomorrow I'll see if people go to the river to catch some fish, and let's get some fresh fish to eat. ”

Chu Xue has been in a good state for the past few days, and her state is not very good, and with these days of getting along, her hostility towards Zuo Mengmei has also dissipated a lot.

In the final analysis, Zuo Mengmei is also a poor person, seemingly noble, but she is completely incomparable to her.

And Xu Changqing's attitude towards her also made her think a lot, and many times, Xu Changqing often couldn't help herself.

smiled: "Changqing, you go to bed early." Whatever you want to eat tomorrow, I'll make it for you. ”

"Whatever."

Xu Changqing smiled and pinched Chu Xue's face, and kissed her red lips fiercely in front of Zuo Mengmei: "Have a good rest, put your heart in your stomach." ”

Chu Xueqiao's face suddenly turned red, and she hurriedly held an umbrella and left first.

However, Zuo Mengmei did not leave, but bit her red lip hard, and looked at Xu Changqing pitifully, although she didn't say anything, she had already expressed her actions that she wanted to be with Xu Changqing tonight.

Xu Changqing smiled, didn't speak, and acquiesced to Zuo Mengmei.

Xu Changqing's big tent was not far from the high platform, and by the light of the fire, he saw that the first snow had returned to the tent, and Xu Changqing withdrew his gaze.

Immediately, he turned around and extinguished several fires on the high platform, leaving only an earthen brazier in the corner, and said to Zuo Mengmei with a smile: "Go over there to bake the fire, it's a big trouble to get sick here." I'm going to get some ginger soup tomorrow morning. ”

"Hmm."

Zuo Mengmei's face flushed, but she didn't refute it anymore, she obediently went to the brazier to bake the fire, and even looked at Xu Changqing's tall back, not knowing what she was thinking.

At this time, the noise under the mountain has stopped, and the surrounding area of the camp is very calm, Hu Zhenwu's gang is not stupid, and they will not keep making trouble and exhausting their physical strength.

And Xu Changqing can basically completely determine that these people must be demons!

Because even if they clean up the rainwater in the trench at this time, that kind of wetness is still unavoidable.

The trench is not like a model army position, and all kinds of drainage facilities are complete.

And they have basically slept for a day, and it is obviously not normal to be able to fall asleep again in this environment, or to keep quiet!

There must be demons in the impermanence of the world!

Xu Changqing also had to admire the brain of the person who came up with this raid method for a while, it was a bit poisonous!

is stuck before the situation is clear, Xu Changqing did not dare to kill them in the uniforms of the Ming army, so that he could calmly lay out!

However, even if it was confirmed, Xu Changqing did not intend to dispose of them now!

No surprises.

Even if there are traitors to the Ming Army, more of them must still be the main force of the old camp of the Wandering Army, and there must be a backhand behind them!

This is also a severe test for the exemplary soldiers!

If we can resist the vicious schemes of the elite of the old battalion of the Displaced People's Army, and the combat strength and experience of the exemplary officers and men, we will certainly be able to reach a higher level.

The follow-up layout Xu Changqing has basically been dealt with, even if the outpost position really can't stop the sharpness of the Wandering Army, he can quickly retreat into a stronger middle camp to continue to defend.

And Xu Changqing also wants to take this opportunity to let Li Zicheng and others understand what it means that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!

Next to her, after roasting the fire for a while, Zuo Mengmei's face had improved a lot, and suddenly, she smiled and thought of something, "Master, I'll go and prepare some supper." ”

After speaking, it was like a smart deer, and quickly ran off the high platform.

Xu Changqing looked at her graceful back, smiled lightly, and turned his attention to the darkness in front of the camp.

According to the time, the follow-up elite of the Wandering People's Army should also move, right?
