Chapter 517:-for-tat (11)
The female shopkeeper still had to ask: "Guest officer, how many people do you want to come?" How many people's meals are we going to prepare? Now, the chefs who run the hall have to be invited out, some time ago. The business was not too good to support those people, so I had to lay off some. There are about a dozen chefs, but now there are only two. So we had to prepare meals for hundreds of people, and we had to go out and ask the chef to help. I want to know your exact number so I can know how many temporary chefs I have to go and had. Running over the hall,
"You say how many people you can live in this inn, and I'll arrange for as many people as you want to come in. How many people do you prepare? ”
"It's really a big shopkeeper, there is no fixed number of people, and none of you men have any explanations. We have a number of men. Let's say that there are 1,000 people in this shop, and then you have 1,000 people? ”
"Yes, even if I pinch it out of clay, I will pinch out a thousand people,"
"Okay, I've convinced you," the female shopkeeper said politely, "If it's full, it's about 600 people." Such a scale is already the largest in Qufu. ”
"I know your family is the biggest, so I came to your house. Then you can prepare a meal for 600 people, and if the deposit is not enough, I can add more. ”
"You live here, huh? It doesn't matter. I can give it to you. It's okay to spend first and then settle out. Along the way, I am also content with your objectivity. A big boss like you wouldn't sneak away, would you? ”
"The female shopkeeper is really joking, we will set off and settle the bill with you at night, if you are afraid, I can give you five thousand Rubai on the sixteenth day of the lunar month,"
"I believe in you, big treasurer,"
In this way, Wei Chengming stayed at the Yuelai Inn. After staying here, didn't it take too long? Immediately he sent out twenty people who he had brought: "Hurry up with me to the various inns to see how they are prepared, and how many people can live in each inn, and give me a systematic answer." ”
Wei Chengming brought more than 30 people over, just to facilitate communication between the inns. He's going to send out 20 people. There are only a dozen or so people around, just to stay and prepare for the contingency, in case something happens, the dozen or so people will be in order to protect General Wei Chengming.
Twenty people were sent out. The fastest one will be back in half an hour, and the slowest will be back in more than an hour. They each reported on the situation stipulated by Wei Chengming.
Of the twenty-one inns, there are only one inn where more than half of the people live, and they didn't charter it, and this inn is where their few people live.
The 19 inns were all packaged, and Wei Chengming checked it carefully, and there was no problem with 4,000 people.
Understand the situation. Wei Chengming hurriedly sent four more soldiers, and they asked them to rush back to Yicheng and report the situation here to Gongziban. When they came, before entering the city, they had already collected a dozen pairs of sleds in a relatively secret place, just to prepare for sending credit back and forth, such a long distance. Walking on only two legs, it will take almost one night to reach Yicheng tonight. This is a huge delay.
With their sleds, it is much easier to communicate back and forth. When the five hundred came, they were 600 people, and the remaining 100 people carried all their sleds back, leaving only ten sleds, which were stored in a certain place, for the convenience of their coming and going.
Wei Chengming wrote a letter to Gongziban, telling Gongziban that the Twenty Inn can accommodate 4,000 people, and there is no problem, and it can be completed as planned. The first step of the plan is: they will send another 1,500 people to Qufu tonight, and another 2,000 people to Qufu tomorrow, that is, on the 15th, they will send another 3,000 people to Qufu, so that 7,000 people will enter Qufu City safely. For the action of the 16th. plays a key role.
Gongzi Ban soon received a letter from Wei Chengming in Yicheng. 1,500 people were immediately dispatched. arranged for a commander to lead the team, and Gongzi Ban told him: "When you arrive in Qufu, you must accept Wei Chengming's leadership and accept the tasks assigned by Wei Chengming." This must be ensured. There is the slightest bit of paralyzing carelessness. ”
The chief said, "No, general, I will resolutely carry out the orders of the general." The command of General Wei Chengming. ”
Gongzi Ban told Jingchang: "When you see Wei Chengming, you tell him." Everything is going according to plan. There must be no change. Has there been a change? Send someone to deliver the letter back immediately. If there is no change, there is no need to send someone to deliver the letter back. All other plans remain unchanged. ”
"I see. General, you will definitely convey your instructions to General Wei in their entirety. If there is no change in the situation, don't send troops back, and send troops back to deliver a letter when the situation changes, that's the order. Everything went according to plan. ”
1,500 people set off, but in fact, 2,000 people went with whom. The 500 people who did not enter the city carried their sleds back again. You can't bring a sled into the city, and once you enter with a sled, the city will be easily discovered by Qing's father.
The 1,500 were assigned again. Among the 20 inns, how many people did they go out all at once? This makes it not easy to attract the attention of the enemy. 1,500 people in 20 inns, that is, one inn is seventy-five people. It won't attract any attention. But Wei Chengming did not distribute it equally, but left more than 200 people in the inn where he was staying, because their inn was a little bigger, and some inns were almost full of seventy-five people when they entered at once.
So she left herself two hundred. The remaining soldiers were again distributed according to the size of the inn. After the assignment goes down. Wei Chengming immediately sent his own communication soldiers and wrote a letter to Gongzi Banzai, asking him to legislate at the fastest stage and immediately assign the soldiers who should come to Qufu to which inns, so that there is no need to distribute them in Qufu. It won't attract any attention from others.
The way to go directly to the inn, he will arrange some people to wait on the street. Go to where they are. A series of arrangements were made for which inn to go to and which gate to enter.
They methodically arranged the accommodation of 1,500 people. There was also a man who was secretly fixing them and watching them carefully. This person is none other than Childe Madara's teacher and wife. He saw the situation clearly, and then rushed to the twenty inns himself to check. The middle woman took a closer look. I think it's not bad to be hidden. I was relieved. It's not going to fail this time,
