On this day, Du Jia was competing with Yang Zhi in marksmanship, both of them only used Yang family marksmanship, and they fought equally, and Du Jia was defeated after more than 80 rounds, after all, his physical fitness was still worse than Yang Zhi, but in terms of understanding marksmanship, he was no longer under the other party at all, so Yang Zhi was also sighing and ashamed.

The two of them were sweating profusely after the fight, and a little minion had already sent towels and herbal tea, and when the two were sitting down to rest and discuss the gains and losses of Fang Cai, they saw Lin Chong hurriedly walking in, and sat down opposite them without saying hello, with a letter in his hand.

Du Jia and Yang Zhi were both shocked, Lin Chong has always been steady, rarely appeared so anxious, Yang Zhi hurriedly asked: "Why is Lin Jiaotou so nervous, could it be that there are officials and soldiers attacking us?" ”

Lin Chong smiled bitterly and said: "It would be good if they came to attack us, but they went to attack our base camp, this is an urgent letter sent to us by Fang La, Jia Shao, take a look." ”

Du Jia hurriedly took it and read the letter with a sweep of his eyes, the content of the letter was very simple, it was said that Hu Yanzhuo had brought 15,000 men and horses to attack Liangshan, and Han Tao drank Peng Xi to help, so that he could make plans early, in addition, according to reliable sources, Tian Hu, the king of the Jin Dynasty, also sent a force of men and horses to prepare to attack them, and now the soldiers and horses are said to be on the border between Jizhou and Qingzhou, and the target is the Mengzhou Mansion in the northwest corner.

It turned out that the matter discussed in the court had already been listened to and sent back by Fang La's internal line, of course, Tian Hu, Wang Qing and others were no exception, Wang Qing was fine, after all, it was far away from Qingzhou, and Tian Hu was moved, feeling that this was a good opportunity to attack Liangshan, Hu Yanzhuo went to deal with Liangshan, and Du Jia must go to the rescue, then the three cities of Mengzhou Ping'an and Dezhou that he just grabbed must be undefended, and they are just cheap.

Du Jia's brows also furrowed, now the situation is very serious, he hurriedly asked his subordinates to convene the people to discuss the future, and at the meeting, he told everyone about this matter, so that everyone could talk about their thoughts.

Yang Zhi was the first to speak: "This Hu Yanzhuo is the founding of the famous general Hu Yanzan, our ancestors also have some friendship, so I know him very well, he is strong in martial arts, a pair of cooked copper whips in his hands are rare opponents, not to mention, leading the troops to fight is also a good hand, and there is a family tradition of horse warfare, this horse is specially trained, the whole body is covered with leather armor, bows and arrows are eager to enter, the same is true for knights, when fighting with iron chains locked in a row, rampage invincible, this is definitely a strong opponent. ”

Lin Chong added: "I have also heard of this Hu Yanzhuo's name, he should be the capital commander in Runing County, and Sun Wanchun, who died at our hands before, has a similar status, I heard that the cottage forces around Runing County have been subdued by him, either destroyed or obedient, it is indeed a rare talent, this time the imperial court recruited him to deal with us It seems that we are treated as a big trouble, after all, even Fang Latianhu and they do not have this treatment." ”

Qin Ming also said: "Then Han Tao and Peng Xi should not be underestimated, both of them are also experienced in a hundred battles, especially good at commanding. ”

In this way, everyone talked about each other's information and their own opinions, and Du Jia slowly began to have a plan in his heart after listening to it, and after everyone finished saying their opinions, they all focused on Du Jia, and now everyone is used to taking him as the backbone.

Du Jia propped his hands in front of the table, looked at the people in the room with blazing eyes, looked at them one by one, and found that no one showed a frightened or panicked expression before he smiled with satisfaction: "Brothers, this is the biggest crisis we have faced, now we have a total of three enemies, one, the fifteenth thousand army led by Hu Yanzhuo - it is said that there are five thousand elite forbidden troops, and three thousand strong chain horses, their target is our hometown Shuibo Liangshan; Second, Natian Hu also sent people to take advantage of the fire to rob, and now it is at the junction of Qingzhou and Jizhou, it is estimated that as soon as we all leave here, they will attack Mengzhou City and other places; Third, Murong Rongda of Qingzhou should not be underestimated, he also has fifty or sixty thousand horses in his hands, and it is very likely that he will also take advantage of this empty space, so we are equivalent to having a three-way enemy. ”

He paused and said: "Brother Fang Cai suggested that we temporarily abandon the three cities of Mengzhou, and the army will go all out to help, but I don't think so, these three cities are the seeds we sowed, as long as we hold on until the autumn, we can have a huge harvest, and if we abandon it now, we will lose all our efforts, so we must keep these three cities, and we can't lose any of them."

Lin Jiaotou, I will give you two battalions of men and horses, plus the military horses in the original city, be sure to defend these three cities for me, no matter how the people of Tianhu provoke don't pay attention, relying on the defense of these three cities and their consumption, after all, they are far away, it is difficult to replenish the food, as long as the side that persists in the victory must be us, in addition, Ma Lin, Chen Da, Yang Chun The three of them also come to help you. ”

Lin Chong is the strongest in Liangshan in terms of martial arts and command, not to mention loyalty, Du Jia obviously knew that this matter was difficult so he handed it over to the other party, Lin Chong said in a deep voice: "Jia Shao, but please rest assured, no matter how many people sent by Natian Hu and how to provoke, I will definitely hold these three cities firmly." ”

Du Jia patted Lin Chong's shoulder with satisfaction, he never worried about the things handed over to Lin Chong, although Lin Chong was inferior to himself in terms of overall situation and flexibility, but to say that tenacity and defensive ability were still above him, the defense of these three cities was good, and they were each other's horns, under Lin Chong's command, it was difficult for the other party to have a chance even if his strength was more than several times that of him, not to mention that Lin Chong's own force was absolutely first-class, and he was not afraid of any decapitation tactics at all.

Then he walked up to Wu Song again, held his hands and said slowly: "Second brother, I will hand over this Peach Blossom Mountain to you, as long as you hold here, no matter how many reinforcements Qingzhou sends to attack our three cities, the fortifications of this mountain are already very strong, I only have one word for you, no matter what, you must hold here, and don't be provoked by the other party to fight with them, there will be opportunities to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions in the future, but at this stage, as long as you do a good defense, I know that this is not in your temperament, But I can only rest assured if I leave it to you. ”

This Peach Blossom Mountain is equivalent to a checkpoint between the three cities and Qingzhou, especially when they fought against Sun Wanchun before, they increased their defensive capabilities by at least two levels, plus the several defensive tactics left by Du Jia before were not under a city, as long as they were defended here, they would make the three cities of Ping'an, Dezhou, and Mengzhou have no worries, so it was also very important.

Finally a million words, it doesn't matter if no one applauds, I cheer for myself, hoping to hold on to the next million, gospusgo~
