Han Won couldn't, thought for a long time, and said:

"Yuan has some superficial opinions, if there is anything wrong, I bother the seniors to correct it."

"Yuanguan Chuyue border map, thought that the thief army crossed the river, either from the north, from the east, or to the south. These three directions correspond to the three counties of Bei'an Province, Jingxing County in the north, Linwu County in the east, and Shangxuan County in the south. ”

"Among the three counties, Jingxing County is backed by Chang Gung Mountain, the mountain is rugged, although there is a ferry, but the water is turbulent, and the thief army may cross the river from here, but it is unlikely; Look at Linwu County again, this county is the best place to cross the river, the terrain is flat, the county town is far from the ferry, the thief army crosses the river from here, unless we set up a formation along the coast, otherwise they don't have to worry about being hit by the half-crossing; Finally is Shangxuan County, this place is the most special, the Great Ling River is here, both sides are thousands of cliffs, although there is a ferry, but since ancient times there are few people walking, it is difficult to imagine, the thief army will cross the river from this. ”

After Han Won's words were finished, everyone nodded in agreement.

He continued: "Meta's analysis is only hypothetical, and does not rule out the possibility that the rebels will do the opposite. The rebels may also be crossing from two or even three directions at the same time, or placing suspicious troops in one direction in order to attract our attention, while the real main force will be crossing from the other direction. ”

Huang Lang couldn't help but ask, "Brother Han, according to your meaning, should we divide our troops to garrison in the three counties?"

"Brother Huang, I didn't say that. What Yuan Fangcai said was just a little bit of his own opinion. How to mobilize the five troops and horses depends on the arrangements of the general. ”

Han Won hurriedly explained. He didn't dare to say that it was his own idea to divide his troops to defend the city, in case he suffered a defeat and Gu Feng put the responsibility on his head, it would be more than worth the loss.

Gu Feng said: "According to what the Korean brigade general Fang Cai said, the thief army is most likely to cross the river from Linwu, but the other two places also have to be guarded."

"The generals listened to the order, Wang Biao led a group of men and horses to garrison Fucheng, Huang Lang led a unit to garrison Jingxing, Han Yuan was stationed in Linwu, and Liu Dong was stationed in Shangxuan. The four cities were horns of each other, one city suffered, and the other three cities immediately sent troops to support. ”

"Rank, behind you is the entire Chuzhou, for the sake of everyone's relatives and the safety of the world, please be sure to focus on the overall situation and work together to block the thief army in Bei'an. The imperial court reinforcements are coming, and the thieves will definitely be defeated! Then it will be the time for you and me to seal the shadow of the wife! ”

Gu Feng made a generous statement, and all the generals were obedient, but Han Yuan had a thorn in his heart. Is this Gu Feng aimed at himself, knowing that Linwu City is the most dangerous, but he still let himself be stationed there, what if he can't hold it?

In fact, Han Won is really wrong to think so, Gu Feng. Han Yuan's analysis before made Gu Feng admire him and thought that he was a rare general. Moreover, there is an experienced brigade general like Li Kui in Han Yuan's department, and Gu Feng feels that it is more safe to hand over Linwu to Han Yuan to garrison. If it is handed over to Huang Lang and others, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep it.

Han Yuan, who was unable to disobey the military order, had to take the soldiers and horses of the four counties he led into Linwu.

It is said that it is the soldiers and horses of the four counties, but in fact, there is a lot of moisture here. First of all, there are only more than 3,000 won in the won itself. Secondly, Li Kui was even more miserable, almost all of his more than 5,000 brothers confessed to Jingyang last time, and this time he couldn't even make up 2,000 people when he went to Bei'an Mansion. There are two brigade generals left, one named Zhang Zhuangyang and the other named Wu Jier, and the soldiers and horses under his command are only more than 2,000.

The power on hand of the won is not even 10,000. Relying on such a small number of troops to defend the city, the devil knows how many days it can be defended.

Originally, Han Won, in line with the idea of not getting ahead and not fighting for merit, did not plan to compete with others for food and grass, but now it is different, and if he wants to defend the city for a long time and there is not enough food, it is tantamount to a fool's dream. He immediately sent people to Fucheng to transport grain to Linwu City as much as possible, Gu Feng knew the importance of Linwu's status, and took care of him as much as possible.

…

Linwu City, official residence.

Han Yuan called Li Kui, Zhang Zhuangyang, Wu Jier, and Yigan to the hall.

As soon as he saw the generals, Han Yuan got straight to the point:

"Brigade General Li, Brigade General Zhang, Brigade General Wu. Han Won called all three of you brigade generals and your rank here today, mainly to discuss with you about defending the city. ”

"General Meng values it and entrusts me to be the leader of the four counties. You have been in the army for many years, and you should know better than me what it means to be 'military orders are like mountains'. Since you are now under my control, everything must be subject to the arrangement of this leader. ”

"I'll leave it here first, if any of you don't obey me, you can go to Fucheng now to find General Gu and ask him to change you to another place to garrison."

"If you stay in this Linwu City, then be honest with this leader. If anyone dares to fight against me, I promise, this sword given by the emperor will not agree! ”

Han Yuan said that, and slapped the long sword in his hand in front of the case.

Everyone can hear that Han Won is in Liwei.

Everyone is not surprised, after all, Han Yuan is only a teenager under the age of nineteen, but the people who want to command are all old oilmen who are ten or twenty years older than him.

Li Kui immediately said: "Han Lingjun can rest assured, the last few generals will definitely obey their orders."

Zhang Zhuangyang also said: "The order of the leader, we naturally dare not disobey." I just don't know, what strategy does the army have to defend the city? ”

Han Yuan said with a smile: "General Zhang, can you see that this army has been desperately transporting grain to the city for several days?" To tell the truth, I don't have any tricks, all I can do is defend Linwu City, and all you can do is defend with me. ”

Wu Ji'er exclaimed: "Leader, the last general heard that the rebels have 100,000 people, if they forcibly attack the city, we are afraid that we will not be able to defend it."

Han Yuan said: "If you can't defend it, you have to defend it, we have no other way but to delay as much time as possible and wait for the imperial army to come to help." Ladies and gentlemen, I advise you not to have any illusions, and to try to defend ourselves is our only way to live. The city is in the people, and the city is dead! ”

Han Yuan's tone was extremely heavy, and all the generals and officials listened to his words, and their hearts were all tight. It seems that this time it's really not a joke, it's going to be a game.

Perhaps it was Han Yuan's words that played a role, and in the next ten days, everyone was busy with the next defense of the city.

On the one hand, the officers and soldiers repaired the dilapidated city wall, on the other hand, they prepared wood, boulders, boiling oil, gold juice and other equipment to defend the city, and on the other hand, they stepped up the production of arrows and repaired armor, so as to be prepared.

The county guard of Linwu is an old man named Zhuang Feng, out of consideration for his own safety, he tries his best to meet any orders from Han Yuan. Because there were less than 10,000 officers and soldiers defending the city, Han Yuan specially asked him to go to the city to recruit thousands of young men to assist the officers and soldiers in defending.

In addition, the won patrolled the four sides of the city wall every day, lest there be something that was not enough.

Han Won felt like he had done his best.
