When Su Ren stepped into the lobby of the Taishou Mansion, there were already many officials inside, and they sat in their seats one by one and frowned. [Ran^Text^Library] After Su Ren saluted the Wen Party, he returned to his place.

Wen Dang glanced at the hall: "Okay, it's all here, why do you invite everyone to come, you should all know, let's talk about it, what should we do next?" ”

There was silence, and no one spoke. The scene was so quiet that one wondered if these people were puppets.

"Captain Tang, you talk about the battle situation first!" Wen Dang didn't want to wait, so he directly opened his mouth to name him.

Tang Meng slowly straightened up and saluted to the Wen Party: "Ladies and gentlemen, I just received an urgent report, our bandits have encountered a problem, the pioneer battalion has encountered a heavy resistance in Huilongkou, and the five hundred people sent up have been beaten very badly, which can be described as a heavy loss, and one soldier has suffered because of this, and less than 100 of the 500 people have returned, all of them are wounded!" ”

"The mountain bandits have been integrated, from the original fifty-two to the current three, with Huilongkou, Feihuling and Zhangshugou as strongholds, into a corner, these three terrain is precipitous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, attack one and the remaining two immediately rescue, although we have many county soldiers, but in such a place can not be opened, can only be sent up little by little, the result is that the mountain bandits occupy a favorable terrain, causing us a heavy blow."

"Before you came, I discussed with Tai Shou, and prepared to go on a three-way attack, so that the mountain bandits could not be rescued, only in this way can they be uprooted, who to send, and where to attack, you can speak freely, this time if you don't exterminate the mountain bandits in Shu County, you will never withdraw troops!"

After Tang Meng finished speaking, he sat down. Su Ren had known the news for a long time, and he was not so surprised when he heard these words. It is inevitable that problems will be encountered in the crackdown on bandits, and the key to victory or defeat depends on the determination of the upper echelons. If the upper echelons are not prepared to be completely wiped out, then even if the first battle is won, the final result will still be a failure. If the upper echelons are ruthless, even if they lose eight out of ten games, the final victory will definitely be on the side of the official army. In this way, the weakness of the mountain bandits compared with the official army is that they cannot afford it.

Chang Shi said: "Tang Duwei has a suitable candidate, say it and listen to it!" ”

Tang Meng thought for a while: "At present, there is only one person, my deputy general can do all the way, I will lead the whole way, and the rest of the way depends on who has this confidence." ”

The discussion began, and the scene became less peaceful. The people who can sit here are at least at the rank of captain, and everyone has personal considerations.

Su Ren listened to the discussion between the two people next to him, and one said: "The vanguard officers and soldiers are the elite of Shu County, and they are all defeated, and who else still has that courage." ”

The other hurriedly made a booing gesture, signaling the man to silence, if Taishou and Tang Meng heard it, it would not be a good thing to hand over this errand to them.

Su Ren sat quietly, his waist was very straight, he didn't talk to the people next to him, he didn't speak, and he seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed. It wasn't until someone next to him pushed himself that he reacted.

Wen Dang looked at Su Ren: "Ziheng, I heard that your county soldiers have been fully equipped with armor, can you fight?" ”

Su Ren stood up and saluted, glanced at his colleagues around him, everyone's eyes looked at him, and said, "Taishou and Duwei are sent, and their subordinates must do their best!" ”

"Good! With Ziheng's words, the old man is relieved! It's not as good as ......."

Chang Shi hurriedly said: "Ziheng's new county soldiers, although they are equipped with armor, but they have never been on the battlefield, Ziheng is a captain in Chengdu, if there is anything missing, who is entrusted with the safety of Chengdu?" ”

Su Ren is very appreciative of his concern for common things, and he can speak for him at this time, and 10,000 yuan a month is not a waste of money. However, Su Ren came here to take the military power along the way, even if the Wen Party did not speak, he would take the initiative to ask for help in the end.

Su Ren saluted to the common thing: "Thank you Changshi for your care, as a captain of Chengdu, if the bandits around Chengdu are not eliminated, it is my dereliction of duty as a school captain, I can contribute to the safety of Chengdu, how can my subordinates be left behind." ”

"Ke Ziheng has no experience in leading troops, in case he ......"

Su Ren waved his hand: "Back then, I could face tens of thousands of bandits in Yuanshan with ease, how could the bandits around Chengdu be compared with the bandits in Yuanshan, Changshi rest assured, his subordinates must live up to their mission, so please ask the captain to order, no matter the bandits' lair, the soldiers of Chengdu County will be deadly!" ”

Wen Dang and Tang Meng glanced at each other, Tang Meng nodded: "In this case, okay, the bandits in Zhangshugou will be handed over to Ziheng, and the success or failure of the bandits is here, I hope Ziheng will succeed!" ”

"No!"

Wen Dang nodded appreciatively: "Okay, the matter is over, Tang Duwei, Zhang Dequan, and Ziheng will stay temporarily, and the rest can retreat!" ”

The people who left breathed a sigh of relief, and there was no tension in those who left, this matter was originally related to the three of them, one was the lieutenant of Shu County, one was the deputy general, and the other was the captain of Chengdu. To exterminate the bandits around Chengdu, you can't do without the three of them, and the others are purely here to help, counting on those guys to kill them, and there is no door.

Wen Dang glanced at Su Ren: "What difficulties does Ziheng have?" This time, Ziheng is alone, the terrain of the bandits' nest in Zhangshugou is very favorable to the bandits, the Chengdu County Soldiers have just been formed, if there is a mistake, Ziheng should not be discouraged, this time it will not work, we will have a next time. ”

Su Ren was very helpless, how could the Wen Party become uncomforting, it was a good thing to worry about defeat before the battle, but it would be another matter if you didn't believe in yourself. Su Ren clenched his fists: "Don't worry, this time I will definitely defeat the bandits and take Zhangshugou." ”

"Good!" Tang Meng smiled: "Captain Su can have such courage, then I will talk about the plan, tomorrow the three of us will lead a group of people, go to the three places, start during the day, with wolf smoke as the number, as long as which one succeeds, they can outflank the back road of the mountain bandits, and they can besiege the mountain bandits, they have no way to escape!" ”

"Whoa!" Su Ren and the adjutant general surrendered their promises.

The deputy general, also surnamed Zhang, is a middle-aged man in his thirties. was originally the lieutenant of Shu County, but since Tang Meng came, he was arranged to the position of deputy general. Zhang Dequan is a native of Shu County, and his origin is not very clear, and he is not an ordinary person who can be a deputy general anyway.

Out of the Taishou Mansion, Su Ren turned over and went straight to the barracks. Everyone in the barracks has been waiting for a long time, this time Su Ren is going to ask for battle, and they are only waiting for Su Ren's good news.

"It's back!" As soon as Su Ren's war horse entered the camp, Hawking came in with a huff. A group of anxious guys who were waiting poured out of the door.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Su Yi waved his hand: "Come into the house and let me drink saliva!" ”

Gou Tianming hurriedly brought Su Ren's tea bowl over, and the tea in it was not hot or cold. Su Ren drank a bowl of tea in full view of everyone and smiled slightly.

"Big brother, how's it going?" Hawking is a young man with a heart and did not hold back.

Su Ren sold Guanzi: "Here's the thing, the vanguard has been frustrated, and the mountain bandits have also been integrated, and now they are gathered in three places: Huilongkou, Feihuling and Zhangshugou, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack......"

"Big brother, you just say if there is anything about us, we all know these things!"

"You're in a hurry!" Su Ren nodded: "Taishou let us attack, the target is Zhangshugou!" ”

"Really?" Hawking immediately became excited.

Su Ren smiled: "This can still be fake, go and prepare, leave five hundred people to watch the house, and the rest bring the equipment and take everything we can use, this time it is a tough battle, and we must not lose!" ”

Before the words were finished, Li Cheng, Hawking and Gou Tianming led a group of sub-team leaders, Shi Chang, and Wu Chang to rush out of the big tent. Su Ren's side suddenly became deserted, Su Ren was stunned, and glanced at Sima Xiangru: "These guys are so anxious?" ”

Sima Xiangru smiled slightly: "Who are they, the captain should be clear!" ”

"Hey! It's still that my military discipline is not strict, and it's also that Brother Sima didn't take care of it! Su Ren shook his head and sat down in his seat: "Brother Sima, this time I will lead the troops to attack, and the affairs of the family will be handed over to you." ”

Sima Xiangru hurriedly surrendered his hand: "The subordinates must set up a banquet and wait for the captain to triumph!" ”

The barracks were already in chaos, and those who could go were elated and began to pack their things. couldn't go, some people wanted to ask Su Ren to fight, but they were all scolded back by Li Cheng. A thousand men were soon assembled. Su Ren put on armor, the bright red helmet on the top of his head was particularly eye-catching, there was no windy cloak, and it was not a heavy iron armor. One hand pressed on the hilt of the sword, the other hand crossed the waist, and crossed the legs to stand on the platform.

There is no need to do pre-war mobilization, these guys from Yuanshan have long been impatient, what kind of life they live in Yuanshan, they come to Chengdu to practice for a few months, and they are boring and boring. There is no one who is not excited to hear the news that the troops are going to be dispatched, he is originally a Yuanshan thief who licks blood with a knife, and killing or being killed is not a big deal.

"Let's go!" Su Ren only said two words, then got off the platform and turned over his white horse, and led a thousand soldiers and horses out of the camp.

Rendezvous with Tang Meng and Zhang Dequan at the west gate, and seeing Su Ren's soldiers and horses, Zhang Dequan glanced at the neat formation and brand-new armor, and said to Tang Meng with a smile: "Is it really that he robbed the Zhuo family's goods?" ”

Tang Meng smiled: "This guy looks average, but he is surprisingly bold, he doesn't dare to do this, and he won't only go to Yuanshan back then." ”

Zhang Dequan nodded: "That's right, or Du Wei has foresight, such a character can provoke less and provoke less, when his subordinates were in Wenshui, I heard that Yelang's side had already fought inextricably, and the woman in Wuyang had already established herself as the king, and also pulled a few surrounding city lords, and when the autumn harvest is over, we can enter the army!" ”

"Good! When the time comes, it is inevitable to use the power of this kid, this time to pull him is to give him some sweetness, and he must not let his thousand people fold here! ”

"My subordinates understand!"

When the two were talking, Su Ren's army had already come closer. Turned over and dismounted and saluted Tang Meng: "Subordinate Su Ren to meet the captain!" ”

Tang Meng hurriedly helped Su Ren up: "Oops! Captain Su is polite, Captain Su's soldiers and horses are very majestic, I am very moved to see it, with such elite soldiers, why worry that this little bandit can't do his best? In my opinion, this time both of us don't need to go, Captain Su alone is enough! Tang Meng said, turning his head to look at Zhang Dequan.
