Facing the wind, we try to straighten our waists, we don't bow our heads, as long as we dare to face the wind.

In Qin Guozhen's patrol mansion, civil and military officials sat on the left and right, and servants brought fragrant tea to everyone. Qin Guozhen took a sip of fragrant tea and said: "My lords, the front position of the enemy army outside the city above the head of the city, everyone can also see clearly, which adult has a good strategy for retreating from the enemy in his heart, you might as well talk about it, let's take a closer look, and discuss a proper countermeasure."

Because of the importance of the matter, in addition to the Taoist Sun Zhixiu, the prefect Zhu Zhikui, and the general soldier Lu Qianji of the Zhikong Wenyu were all present. It's just that they all put on a posture that they don't care about themselves, and they are concentrating on studying their noses.

Sun Zhixiu looked at Qin Shizhen's expression, stood up with a dry cough, and arched his hand to him: "Even if the patrol is according to the orders of the adults, I will say a few words first, whether it is right or not, it can be regarded as a brick throw."

There is a way that 'the method of using soldiers is to surround it with ten, divide it into five, and attack it if it is doubled, and the enemy can fight it.' Looking at the enemy's formation, although there are few soldiers, they are difficult to defeat with the sharpness of the initial victory. The wall of Ningbo is high and deep, and our army can resist the fortified city and defend it, and attack and resist the enemy day and night to frustrate the enemy's spirit. As soon as our reinforcements arrive, we can take advantage of the momentum of victory and decide a battle. The lower officials will make such a statement that throws bricks and leads jade, there must be omissions, and I would like to hear your lordship's opinions. ”

Lu Qianji, the chief soldier in the city, is a martial artist, so he naturally has to speak about this matter: "My lord, according to the stragglers who came back from outside the city. The Beilun Fort was completely destroyed, and General Zhang was trapped in the enemy camp. With the ability of these two people, they are still defeated, which shows the strength of the enemy, and the vehicles in the enemy formation have all heard of it. This army probably did not come from Zhoushan or Jiangsu and Zhejiang. According to the lower officials' guesses, this army of soldiers and horses came from the Fujian region, so it must not be taken lightly. Moreover, there are Zhoushan thieves eyeing the tiger, according to the humble thought, as the words of the Daotai, refuse to defend the city, the best policy, but also please patrol according to the adult's decision. ”

Zhu Zhikui and Kong Wenyu both arched their hands and said: "What the two adults said is extremely true, and what they say is reasonable. ”

Qin Shizhen glanced at the two of them, and snorted silently, but when Boluo attacked Ningbo, the officials of the two of them poured everything in their pockets and bought the prefect and the position of Tongzhi from Bolo, what insight could the two of them have.

At the moment, he put down the teacup casually and said: "Based on what the adults said, there is no other way to defend the city at the moment. Anyway, the government immediately transferred military horses from Hangzhou and other places to help. It's just that Zhenhai is an important place for coastal defense, and it is extremely difficult to make a mistake here. ”

"My lord" Lu Qianji got up and arched his hand: "In Ningbo City, there are only more than 15,000 soldiers and horses from all walks of life. If the troops were divided to defend the Zhenjiang River, wouldn't it be a taboo to divide the troops? Instead of transferring troops from Ningbo, it is better to transfer the army in the direction of Suzhou. In the meantime, Lord Chen Mo of Shaotai Dao here has 3,000 elite soldiers under his command, and the Lord can order him to immediately raise troops to defend Zhenhai. ”

Qin Shizhen nodded and said: "General Lu is reasonable, so he will transfer the troops of Shaotai Province to assist in the defense of Zhenhai. It's just that the enemy soldiers outside the city are stationed only four or five miles away from the city, and they need to take strict precautions tonight in case the enemy army sneaks in. In addition, General Lu will lead the officers and troops of your headquarters to attack the enemy camp at night tonight to defeat the enemy's spirit. Lord Sun, you have to supervise the armies defending the city.

Zhu and Kong also asked the people in the city to send husbands and messengers, and said that it was the attack of the Japanese invaders on the sea, and asked them to help defend the city. ”

Several people saw that the matter had been set by the inspector, and one by one they bowed their backs and said, "Your Excellency." ”

The night slowly covered the sky, and a bright moon hung above the night sky, painting the earth with a faint silver glow. To be honest, the moonlight tonight is indeed not suitable for a night attack, but the patrol has already made a decision, and if you don't go to it, you will fall into the crime of retreating. Lu Qianji had no choice but to strengthen the force of the sneak attack on the military horses.

Ningbo city military horses mobilized, according to the patrol Qin Shizhen's policy, secretly out of the north gate, with a small boat to transport the horses to the north side of the enemy outside the city, due to the number of people and few boats, this transport actually carried most of the night, until the last boat of soldiers and horses in the early morning did not go ashore, fortunately, there was no mistake. Five thousand soldiers and horses quietly gathered in a forest, everyone was titled, and the horses were all chewed, and they only waited for the time to kill the enemy camp.

On the other hand, the barracks of the Shenzhou Army outside the city can be seen clearly under the moonlit night. The entire camp was completely shrouded in a deathly silence. Only patrols are patrolling back and forth. They seemed to be ignorant of the impending danger hidden by the moonlight.

Chen Tianpet and Zhong Mo were the two of them as Sun Dao's right-hand subordinates, but the east gate was watched by the two. The two of them climbed to the top of the city, and looked at the lifeless and regular military camp outside the city from a distance by moonlight.

"Brother, I miss you and my brothers, and I have been with the superintendent for several years, and he really treats me and me well."

When Zhong Mo heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chen Tianpet, but he saw Chen Tianpet's eyes burning under the moonlit night, so he just stared at himself, and he already understood what he was thinking.

"Big brother means that we won't wait for the man to do it, and we will ...... But the soldiers outside the city did not know where they came from. As rumored in the city, the soldiers outside the city came from the ......."

"Brother, how can their words be believed, overseas is how the Sulu uncle of Zhoushan is willing to make the Japanese pass in front of his door, and go ashore to harm the people, and besides, do you remember what I said about the chariot when I came back from a business trip in Hangzhou and talked to you."

Zhong Mo nodded, "I remember it, at that time, Brother Chen, you admired that chariot a lot, how powerful it sounded." ”

"I didn't tell you the origin of the chariot, brother and foolish brother will tell you now, when I heard in Hangzhou that the chariot was actually from the hand of the Tang King of Fujian......"

Gao Fei was under the command of the company commanders of the two reconnaissance companies that landed outside Wenzhou City last time. According to the jokes of the Shenzhou Army, the equipment of their reconnaissance company is the oldest, and it still uses a spear-type crossbow and the serial hand crossbow is actually equipped with double parts.

At this moment, it was about twelve o'clock in the evening, Gao Fei was lying comfortably on the soft grass of Jiangnan, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, holding a piece of grass root in his mouth, and smelling the sweet smell of Jiangnan emanating from the ground below. Although it is slightly cooler here in Jiangnan than in my hometown, the girl here is really watery, and it has been a day since landing. What he heard was Wu Nong's soft words, but it also made a young man like him feel excited.

Suddenly, there was a squirming sound around him, which woke him up from his sweet dream. With a finger of his hand, the chain crossbow in his right hand was aimed straight in the direction from which the voice came. The whole body was covered tightly, and even the face was covered with a mask, revealing only two eyes. Suddenly relaxed, no need to ask if it was his soldier.
