Fang Yuan and Qin Zhan were stunned in the room for a quarter of an hour, although the two of them were silent, their thoughts were not on the same path.

Qin Zhan was thinking about how to escape.

What Fang Yuan was thinking about was how to fight!

Fifty Manchu Tartars are nothing, and they dare to rob in a swaggering way on the territory of the Ming Dynasty. If his team of such well-equipped brocade guards were frightened and fled by fifty Tartars, what kind of man was he? Although my brother has never fought, he is not scared.

The promotion path arranged by Fang Zhenghua for him was to tie up with the harem magnates, but Fang Yuan had his own ideas, instead of being subservient and charming, it was better to directly win the attention of Emperor Chongzhen.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military are cowardly against the Later Jin, what Chongzhen lacks is the generals who dare to challenge the Later Jin Tartars, this is an excellent opportunity, an opportunity to challenge the Manchu Tartars, an opportunity to prove to Chongzhen.

This high-flying Manchu Tartar must be annihilated! The embroidered spring knife on the waist must show the sword!

After a long silence, it was Qin Zhan who opened his mouth first, "Boss, all the people at the post station have fled, let's also withdraw to Ziyang County!" ”

There are 5,000 guards from the Yanzhou Guard Station in Ziyang County, as well as 10,000 pro-troops sent by King Zhu Yi of Lu, who retreated into Ziyang County, even if they entered a safe haven.

Fang Yuan put down the teacup noncommittally and looked at him calmly, "Run?" This time we are victorious, why should we flee? ”

"Victory?"

Fang Yuan had never been on the battlefield, Qin Zhan didn't know where his ambition came from, and said in a lost voice, "Boss, the joke is not like this, the Houjin Tartar against my Ming border army, which time is not one enemy ten, can still win a big victory." The border army that has been fighting all year round is still invincible, not to mention our team of brocade guards who are only responsible for surveying officials and royal honor guards? ”

"Smack!"

Fang Yuan slammed the teacup on the table and said angrily, "Fourth, you are frightened by the Houjin Tartar!" We have hundreds of guns and three barrels of gunpowder. ”

Qin Zhan never thought that he was really moving this time, and wanted to carry it head-on with the Houjin Tartar, and his face was bloodless with fright, "Boss, you have the grace to promote me, if you want to fight, you will die, and my fourth brother will also accompany you, but ......"

He said in a hesitant manner, "If you really want to fight, it is a great luck that more than half of the brothers can save their lives, and the other brothers of the Jinyi Guard may not necessarily stay to work for you!" ”

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, what Qin Zhan said had their own reason, these people came to Jinyiwei to work on errands, just to mix up the salary, in the whole officialdom is lazy, sloppy, messy, and corrupt in the environment, who is willing to fight with the Houjin Tartars for this meager salary? Who doesn't have a wife and children, who doesn't want to go to work happily and go home safely?

Sending fifty Tartars to the door is simply a good opportunity for God to brush up on experience, how could Fang Yuan easily miss it, he has already made up his mind, and said in a deep voice, "Fourth, go and gather all the Jinyi guards to the big courtyard of the post station, I want to give a lecture!" ”

When night fell, the postmen, postmen, and postmen of the entire post station had already fled cleanly, and the only one who remained in the post station was the original line of brocade guards below.

The twenty brocade guards had already learned the bad news that the Golden Tartars were about to be killed from the mouths of the scattered post stations, and they couldn't wait to pat their butts and leave immediately, leaving the place of right and wrong of the post station, and hiding in Ziyang County.

In the large courtyard of the post station, more than ten torches illuminated the large courtyard, which was brightly lit, reflecting a group of brocade guards who were listless and frightened.

Fang Yuan stood in front of everyone and said loudly, "Houjin Tartar is here, it is only less than fifty miles away from this post station, and it will be reached tomorrow at dusk." ”

Everyone looked at each other, everyone wanted to escape, but none of them dared to stand up and be the first to come out, and they all set their eyes on Qin Zhan, only he could speak in Fang Yuan.

Qin Zhan knew that Fang Yuan's mind was not to run away, but to start a war with the stamina Tartar, he was in a dilemma, he could not offend his colleagues, let alone offend Fang Yuan, with his usual temperament, it was estimated that he would not be angry at both ends.

Fang Yuan's kindness of knowing the encounter, but he had to repay it no matter what, Qin Zhan let out and shouted, "Whatever the boss says, just fight us, a few Tartars will scare us into running away, or is it not from below?" ”

At the moment of life and death, everyone was still silent, and Fang Yuan cheered everyone up and said, "It is said that the Houjin Tartars looted a lot of gold and silver, as well as women, at least tens of thousands of taels, and the Tartars are here to send money to everyone." This time, everyone has a share in the gold and silver that they have been regained by annihilating these post-gold tartars! ”

If you can't understand it, you can only lure it to profit! The so-called money can make the ghost grind, Fang Yuan didn't trust money as bait, and these low-level Jinyi guards with low incomes would let go of such an opportunity to make a fortune.

Fang Yuan's psychological warfare did have some effect, these Jinyi guards, who were accustomed to slacking off government, would not work hard for the ideal of the country's righteousness, but they would be ready to make a windfall.

However, in addition to the desire for gold and silver, there is also the fear of the post-gold tartar, if you lose your life in vain, no matter how much money you have, you will not have the life to spend.

Fang Yuan was good at observing words and feelings, and he could see the doubts in everyone's eyes at a glance, if he wanted to encourage these pampered Jinyi guards to come out and fight hard with the Houjin Tartars, it was not enough to rely on the temptation of gold and silver, he had to prove to them that in this battle, the benefits far outweighed the risks, and the chances of making a fortune were far greater than the chances of losing their lives.

Fang Yuan coughed and continued, "We are in the dark, and they are in the light, so they can attack them unprepared; Moreover, we still have sixty three-eyed guns, sixty bird's beak guns, which can shoot 200 times once with a full load, and fifty Tartars, and not all of them have been annihilated? ”

He said it lightly, but the Jinyi guards were not easily fooled, they knew that if the victory or defeat on the battlefield could be determined by the number of firearms, the Ming army would not be defeated by the Houjin Tartars outside the pass, and there would be no victory.

A burly young man in the brocade guards stood up and asked, "According to my observation of the sky, there is no moonlight today and tomorrow, and neither side can see. Dare to ask Fang Zongqi, how many firearms can kill and injure a Houjin Tartar in the dark night, how to ensure that these two hundred firearms can hit more Tartars? Our firecracker will emit dazzling fire in the dark night, once the Houjin Tartar launches a bow and arrow counterattack along the firelight of the firecracker, it is not the enemy who is clear and I am dark, but the enemy is dark and I am clear, who is sneaking up on whom? ”

Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, this person's rebuttal was sharp, but he was a veteran who was familiar with celestial phenomena and was good at night battles, and the words he asked were old-fashioned, which made him, a rookie on the battlefield, speechless, it seems that he still regards the war of life and death as child's play!

Fang Yuan was confronted by him in public, but he didn't see the slightest annoyance, and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The young strong man is an upright man, and he can't get off the stage in public, and he wants to seek revenge, he is planning to return to the capital with a broken road, and he is not a big deal not to be this brocade guard, and said with a fearless face, "If you don't change your name, you can't change your surname, Jing Jie!" ”

Jing Jie reported to his home, and Fang Yuan continued to ask, "Have you ever been in the army?" Ever been on the battlefield? ”

Jing Jie didn't let him back at all, he said, "Five years ago, I served in the Tianxiong Army of Lu Inspector Division, and served in the Chinese Army. I collided with Fang Zongqi this time, but I didn't want my brothers to die in vain, if Fang Zongqi was not compatible, I would not do this brocade guard! ”

Lu Inspector is the famous general Lu Xiangsheng of the Ming Dynasty, four years ago led 5,000 people to fight alone, died outside the pass, and was posthumously awarded the title of Prince Young Master.

The Tianxiong Army was one of the few strong forces in the Ming Dynasty, and after Lu Xiangsheng died in battle, the Tianxiong Army also disappeared.

Fang Yuan humbly asked, "Jing Jie, is there really no moonlight tomorrow night?" ”

Fang Yuan humbly asked shamelessly, this was beyond Jing Jie's expectations, he thought about it and said, "These days are cloudy, and there is absolutely no moonlight tomorrow night, so Fang Zongqi's sneak attack is just a conjecture on paper, and if you really go to the battlefield, you will inevitably be defeated." ”

With Jing Jie's eyes in the army for many years, his judgment is still reliable nine times out of ten, Fang Yuan groaned and said, "Jing Jie, who said that no moonlight is not conducive to our sneak attack?" If we can see every move of the Houjin Tartars, then is there a chance of winning the sneak attack? ”

Jing Jie didn't look down on Fang Yuan, the Jinyi Wei Zongqi who relied on Fangzhenghua's nepotism, and when he heard him whimsical, he laughed and said, "Dare to ask Fang Zongqi, without moonlight, how can we see Houjin Tartar's every move?" ”

Fang Yuan said leisurely, "According to your statement, if you can clearly see Hou Jin's every move in the dark night, is this victory a big deal?" ”

Jing Jie thought about it for a while, and then said, "If this is the case, then this battle will be won!" ”

Fang Yuan immediately shouted, "That's it!" Captain Jing, would you like to make a bet with me? ”

Jing Jie was stunned and said, "Bet on what?" ”

Fang Yuan looked at him with a smile and said, "If this is defeated, you will consider me the boss; If you don't win this battle, I will consider you the boss. ”

Jing Jie pondered for a moment, with his past experience, it was the Houjin Tartars who were good at sneak attacks and night battles, and the Ming army was not good at night battles, not to mention the Jinyi Guards whose combat power was inferior to the border army.

He really couldn't figure out why Fang Yuan could win in the dark moonless night, so he said, "Good! I'll bet with you! ”

Fang Yuan said loudly, "In that case, tomorrow we will prepare for battle and fill all the firecrackers with gunpowder." Tomorrow night, we will fight to the death with the Houjin Tartars! ”

As soon as he said this, the resistance of the brocade guards was not as strong as before, and in the previous-for-tat confrontation between Fang Yuan and Jing Jie, they even really saw the hope of winning.

This is also Fang Yuan's psychological warfare, which is to use Jing Jie's professional judgment to persuade Jinyiwei, who is still hesitant and timid, to strengthen everyone's fighting spirit and inspire the will to fight.

The next question is how to solve the problem of seeing in the dark.

This can only be recourse to the almighty Taobao system again!
