In the Li family's compound outside Manila, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and young people were holding sticks, knives and guns, going in and out, in a hurry.

And in the middle of the courtyard, a group of people gathered around the table, listening to the advice of those who came in from time to time, and then giving orders and making countermeasures.

Zhang Wu is also qualified now, and he sits on the side, but he is not the person in charge. After all, he was already in a state of imminent triggering, and the experience he had experienced once was useless at this time.

At this time, one of the principals was replaced by Niu Dazhuang who was with him, not only because he opened a martial arts hall and had a large group of apprentices under him, but also because he was born in the army of the Ming Guard, although it was just a small banner, but among the Ming people in Luzon, he was already the one who knew how to fight the most.

"Report, on the outskirts of the city, there have already been Bang Bang Ya people rushing over to kill people, they have the cover of the Spaniards' muskets, we have killed more than ten of our comrades, we can't hold on, and we have fled back!"

"Report, the Bang Bang Ya people stepped on a trap we dug and died, three of them died, and the other traps were discovered by them and did not work."

"Report, the twenty people of the Zhao family haven't left yet, and they haven't gone to the scheduled forest!"

"Report, the two teams of the Li family and the Wang family almost fought, and they both said that the other party ran first!"

"Report, the Qian family and the Sun family grabbed knives and guns, the twenty that were just sent out, there was already a fight, and two people were injured!"

“……”

The continuous proclamation was like a thunderbolt one after another, hitting this Li family manor. The good news, almost none, is all sorts of bad news. The enemy is pressing forward step by step, and their own problems are happening one after another, what is not obeying orders, what is the problem of cooperation, and there are even things that fight each other for a little thing.

These things made Niu Dazhuang very irritable, sweating like rain, and yelling in a hurry.

Li Jiacheng, who is also one of the principals, is also sweating. If you can't stop the enemy's attack, even if the imperial army comes, what's the use? When Niu Dazhuang roared, he also shouted again and again, expressing his opinion.

There is another person, Whitebeard, who is also very anxious when he hears bad news, and then tells his own advice.

For a while, the Li family's compound was very noisy. And the people at the bottom, hearing their commands, are all right. But when these leaders disagreed, the bottom was dumbfounded.

For example, in the forest on the outskirts, Niu Dazhuang asked to send people to ambush again, but Whitebeard felt that he should withdraw people, so he couldn't hold it there, wasting manpower; However, Li Jiacheng has an opinion about which family should have someone in that forest to defend in the past.

The people below don't know who to listen to. And several leaders felt that what they were doing was the most right, that their lives and the safety of their families were at stake, and no one would give in, so they tried to persuade others to use their own methods, but they quarreled with each other again.

Although the onlookers do not know which of them has the most sense. But one thing, they all know, if the leaders keep arguing like this, they will definitely not be able to hold this place. Needless to say, how many days you have to hold on to wait for reinforcements, you can't be sure that you will be broken by the enemy tomorrow!

Could it be that this time, with such hard work and such unity, there is still no way to escape the fate of being slaughtered? For a moment, some people thought a little desperately.

At this moment, suddenly, I saw Zhang Wu stand up, stretched out his hand and slammed the table, making a loud "pop" sound, which shocked everyone and looked at him with their mouths closed.

Zhang Wu endured the pain in his hands, and shouted loudly with a serious face: "Don't make any noise, listen to me and do things!" ”

......When everyone heard this, they were speechless, or stunned.

You're a barber, what do you know about war? You have lived by craftsmanship all your life, and you don't have any smart minds, and you have made a fortune of tens of thousands of dollars, why do you say that you want everyone to listen to you?

Even the short apprentice who was standing and waiting beside Zhang Wu looked at the master in surprise, he couldn't imagine how the master could say such a thing. He saw that everyone was staring at their master and apprentice, and he felt a little embarrassed, his face turned red, and he hurriedly avoided the eyes of others, pulled the master's sleeve, and whispered: "Master, don't talk nonsense." ”

However, Zhang Wu ignored him at all, but took advantage of the quiet opportunity to say loudly to those leaders: "The emperor decreed that the commander of the Beijing camp, that is, Yongwu Bolai, will command us to resist the Spaniards from a distance. There are also experienced craftsmen in the military bureau, who command us to make defensive equipment......"

When he said this, everyone opened their mouths in surprise, is this okay?

In their opinion, Zhang Wu is afraid that he is crazy!

However, Zhang Wu seemed to know what they were thinking, and immediately said loudly: "How do you think the domestic things I said before, as well as the news that the imperial court has sent reinforcements, came from? ”

The things he said before, because of Liang Xiaozhen's testimony and some hearsay, they all believed it. At this time, when he said this, everyone was stunned for a while. Among them, Niu Dazhuang asked suspiciously: "Didn't those Spaniards come to your shop to get a haircut, did you hear it?" ”

The others listened, and several of them nodded, at least they all thought so.

However, Zhang Wu immediately shook his head and said loudly: "Of course not, it was the emperor who gave me a kind of ability, with clairvoyance and the ability to listen to the wind." Believe it or not, it's just the way it is! ”

"......" Everyone heard it and was shocked again, is there really such a thing? Is it possible?

Zhang Wu didn't give them a chance to question, and continued to say loudly: "Don't hesitate any longer, everyone, listen to my arrangement." First, gather all the carpenters and masons at once...... and so on, to make some defensive equipment, including crossbows, javelins, ......"

"Second, at once all the young and strong men shall be formed and put up in turn, and those who have no weapons shall be sharpened with sharpened bamboo poles, and all clubs shall also be sharpened and used as spears. Every group of five people is just stabbing ......"

"Third, if the courtyard wall can't stop the cannon, immediately dig the soil, pile it up from the corner of the wall, it is best to have a sack, and if there is no sack, make a filling pile similar to a sack, if it is really not possible, just directly put the mound of earth......

"Fourth, the musket of the Spaniards can be blocked by cars, everyone pay attention, the arquebus is not terrible, and its shortcomings are ......"

In this Li family compound, I only heard Zhang Wu talking there alone. Everyone else looked at Zhang Wu a little blankly, as if they had never known Zhang Wu before.

After all, in their impression, Zhang Wu is just a barber, and if it is said how to cut hair, it is not surprising that he can talk so much. But what is said now, including defensive equipment, battle formation knowledge, firearms knowledge, etc., is all like a few treasures, and they come when they open their mouths, and they look very powerful when they hear it, which has exceeded their cognition!

Zhang Wu read it out one by one according to what Cao Bianjiao and those craftsmen from the War Bureau said in the chat group.

After a while, he looked at it and found that everyone around him was looking at him stupidly, like a mud bodhisattva. Even at the door there were already people standing there, just like the people in the courtyard, all looking at themselves stupidly, without saying a word.

Seeing this, Zhang Wu couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted loudly: "What are you doing stupidly? Why don't you get moving? Is it too late to wait until the enemy comes in? ”

As soon as he heard his shout, someone finally came back to his senses, among which Niu Dazhuang pointed at him and asked, "I said Brother Zhang, you ...... You...... Do you really have the ability to have a tailwind ear and clairvoyance? ”

And although Li Jiacheng also came back to his senses, he was still shocked, pointed at Zhang Wu and asked, "Is it really possessed by the chief of the Beijing camp, Rong Yongwubo?" ”

Although the others didn't speak, they all stared at Zhang Wu and wanted to hear it, how would he reply?

Zhang Wu looked at them, nodded vigorously, and said: "I can't tell you clearly, you just need to remember that the emperor is concerned about us, and sent Yongwubo and several masters of the Beijing Division Military Bureau, through me, to teach everyone how to resist those Spaniards and hold on until the imperial reinforcements arrive." The rest, wait until we survive, anyway, when is this coming, I won't lie to everyone! ”

However, this fact was too shocking, and it was still a little difficult for these people in the yard to accept for a while.

The courtyard continued to be silent, but someone at the gate of the courtyard suddenly shouted excitedly: "I just came from Fujian, I know, I have heard that Dongchang Fan and Jinyiwei have the ability to clairvoyance and shunfeng ears, Uncle Zhang, are you from Dongchang or Jinyiwei?" ”

When Zhang Wuyi heard this, he thought to himself that I would like to become a captain or a captain of the Jinyi Guard, but I don't have this blessing yet!

He was about to shake his head and deny it, but then he came back to his senses, if he denied it, would they be disappointed? If you admit it, this is pretending to be an official, or the Son of Heaven is pro-army, this crime is big!

Thinking so, Zhang Wu hesitated a little. But fortunately, Niu Dazhuang, who was born in the small banner of the guard, was the most sensitive to the war, so he was the first to come back to his senses and immediately shouted loudly: "Yes, yes, Brother Zhang is right, let's not be stunned, listen to Brother Zhang first, if there is anything else, hold on until the imperial court reinforcements arrive, and we are safe." ”

Today's situation is not optimistic. Li Jiacheng also came back to his senses, and hurriedly echoed: "Niu Xiaoqi is right, don't be stunned, just do what Brother Zhang said, and get over the difficulties in front of you first!" ”

"Quick, quick, what are you doing in a daze, go and find those craftsmen who Lao Zhang said!" Whitebeard also hurriedly shouted at the crowd at the door, and it seemed that no one was obedient anymore, and he was about to rush over and use his cane to drive people away.

With the support of these leaders, all of a sudden, everyone immediately moved. But it's still messy, chaotic.

Zhang Wu was flustered for a while, and then immediately spoke again, arranging things very methodically.

At this moment, in this Li family compound, there is only Zhang Wu, a barber, and one person is the protagonist. Whatever he said, the others hurriedly did so.

Outside the Li family's compound, the young people who were spreading the news ran excitedly, and at the same time, they also spread out what they saw.

When the messenger arrived at the place, he hurriedly ordered and urged: "Yes, just do it, act quickly!" ”

"Wait, who ordered this, did our patriarch agree to it?" Someone didn't move, but objected.

When the herald heard this, he roared with confidence: "What patriarch is not the patriarch, now it is the chief of the capital camp of the imperial court, and Yongwubo is commanding, hurry up and do it!" ”

"What brave warrior?" Some people feel inexplicable.

When the herald heard this, he immediately replied proudly: "Don't you know about the brave warriors? Do the Jianyu in the north of the Ming Dynasty know? That's the one who was killed by Yongwubo! Now Uncle Yongwu is possessed by Uncle Zhang......"

Although it wasted a lot of time, it even caused many people to not believe it and ran back to the Li family's compound to see, but in the end, under the explanation of many people, everyone believed it.

Now, that's amazing. What a miracle!

God bless Daming, the emperor has such a magical ability!

God bless the people of Luzon and Ming, so that such a miraculous thing happened!

It didn't take long for the hard work, as the news spread ten, ten to hundred, the morale of the Luzon Ming people, it was simply rising. In the end, even the leaders of the Ming people of several other manors rushed to the Li family's compound, listening to the introduction of unheard-of countermeasures, and they were overjoyed, and immediately followed this side.

The Luzon Ming people suddenly appeared an interesting scene. This asymmetrical war has not really begun, but whether it is the young and strong people who are resisting the front line, or the old and young hiding in the rear, they all have the confidence that they will win this battle. They believed that they would be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements from the imperial court.

However, the Spanish governor of Luzon, Coquela, did not know all this, and he was still mobilizing before the war. Of course, in his eyes, this is not a pre-war mobilization, they are just going to slaughter a herd of pigs and sheep.

He said to the leaders of the various tribes standing below: "The Ming people of Luzon must be wiped out, both old and young. But there is one thing you must remember, that you must give 70% of what you get! ”

"Lord Governor, the Ming people are prepared to fight this time, what if our people are killed and wounded?" Afalos, a native of Bang Bangya, asked a little with little confidence.

At this time, it was a good opportunity that was rare in decades, even if he was afraid of Governor Coquera, he finally summoned up the courage to try to fight for his own interests.

When Corquila heard this, his eyes swept towards him, and he found that the leaders of the other tribes seemed to want to speak, so he immediately lowered his face and shouted: "The Ming people are just a mass of loose sand, a group of rabble, they have no training at all, what combat power can they have?" If even this is a heavy number of casualties, you don't want thirty percent of you! ”

When the others heard this, they immediately shut up, thinking to themselves: Your Excellency the Governor knows everything, and it seems that there is no room for bargaining. Forget it, just like last time, killing Ming people is like slaughtering cattle and sheep, this easy work, it can be divided into three!
