Chapter 197: Preparation for War
"Report! Report General! Emergency military intelligence! As soon as the spy entered the door, he turned over and dismounted, and said to Zhu Qing breathlessly.
"You take a breath and take your time." Zhu Qing responded.
"Hehe...... general, it's not good, just now Jinzhou's brother Baili rushed to report, Dolgon led an army of 60,000 people out of Jinzhou City, and is heading towards Ningyuan, this time Dolgon is in charge himself, and Duoduo is the vanguard!"
"Sure enough, I came prepared. Xuanwu, immediately notify Adjutant General Cheng and the brothers in the camp to prepare to meet the enemy! Zhu Qing commanded.
"Yes!" Xuanwu quickly returned to the big tent, and met Cheng Li and them halfway.
Seeing Xuanwu in a hurry, Cheng Li knew that there was a situation, "What's wrong?" ”
"The enemy has already left the city and is heading towards Ningyuan. Big brother asked me to come back and talk to everyone. "Xuanwu Dao.
Cheng Li nodded, he had long expected such a thing to happen, so he would not be caught off guard.
"Bearded, beat the drum!" Cheng Lidao.
"Understood!" The bearded man nodded.
"You continue to investigate, and if there is any situation, come back and report it immediately." Outside the city gate, Zhu Qing said to the herald.
"Yes, General." The herald got on his horse and went to spy on the military again.
Zhu Qing walked back to the city, Sai Shiqian and the others also happened to come out, they were all ready to go, it seems that they have not forgotten Zhu Qing's words, although they have all drunk, but they are all in good spirits.
"General, everything is ready, the general will give the order." Cheng Lidao.
Zhu Qing looked at everyone and waited for each other, nodded and said, "Okay, brothers, the Tartars have already left the city, it is estimated that the third watch will arrive in Ningyuan in the middle of the night, and the sneak attack in the middle of the night is the usual method of the Tartars, we have almost completed the fortifications, and on the defense line of the Dao City, except for the guard, everyone else will give Lao Tzu a good night's sleep!" ”
"Sleep...... Go to bed? Kanye asked in surprise.
Sai Shiqian smiled, "Didn't everyone drink a little wine just now?" Just sleeping. ”
When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter.
"Brother Shi Qian is right, drinking is just to sleep, whoever doesn't sleep will go to stand guard!" Zhu Qing shouted.
"Understood!"
"Put on your padded jacket and go to sleep on the battlefield!" Zhu Qing ordered.
"Yes!"
"Go to sleep, go to sleep!"
……
"Vice Admiral Cheng, you wait." Zhu Qing said to Cheng Li.
"What does the general command?" Cheng Li is ready to fight.
"You commanded to go down, you must go to sleep now, if you can't sleep, close your eyes and keep me up, wait for the enemy to come, don't beat gongs and drums, wake up the brothers by passing the word, and then block the enemy according to the task of the defensive line!" Zhu Qing admonished.
"Oh, the general is trying to sneak up on the enemy?" Cheng Li realized.
Zhu Qing nodded, "If the enemy wants to sneak attack us, we will give him a counter-sneak attack." When I put the brothers to sleep, I didn't just mess around, I came to recharge my energy, and I came to ambush. But you must remember that the brothers have just drunk, and this body is always hotter than not drinking, so you must sleep in a cotton jacket! Don't freeze and shoot! Zhu Qing begs to be cautious.
"The last will understand! The last general will command this. Cheng Li said, and was about to retreat again, but was stopped by Zhu Qingla again.
"Wait, I have something private to tell you." While others were mobilizing troops, Cheng Li was pulled aside.
"General, please." Cheng Li looked at Zhu Qing, he didn't know what important things Zhu Qing would have to explain, but he knew that it was definitely not simple,,,,,,,
"Lin Bai acted impulsively, this time you and him were responsible for the first line of defense to attack the enemy's heavy equipment, it can be said that if you are not careful, you will not return, I hope you will look at him a little more while protecting yourself, and you must not make the mistake last time." Zhu Qing admonished, among the generals here, the one he was most worried about was Lin Bai, but what he wanted to protect the most was Lin Bai.
"The last general understands that Lin Bai is also my brother, general, please rest assured." Cheng Li hugged his fist and promised.
"Well, go ahead, be careful, fight for some energy, and boost the morale of the soldiers. Don't forget to bring barbed wire when you go, that's the first line of defense. Zhu Qing smiled and patted Cheng Li's shoulder.
"The last general understands, big brother take care!" Cheng Li said, and walked out of the city gate with righteousness.
After Cheng Li left, Zhu Qing saw that Lin Bai was preparing in a hurry, he shook his head and walked over, "What's the panic?" There's still most of the night. ”
"Big brother, you don't understand, whenever there is a war, I am very excited, and I don't know why I am nervous when I am excited." Lin Baidao.
"Don't be nervous, the enemy comes in the middle of the night, it's not all bad, at first I was worried that he would attack the city during the day, so that your first line of defense would be easily exposed, but now it seems that the night gives you the best cover. All you have to do is get rid of the enemy's catapults and earthen cannons for me. You don't need to kill people. Zhu Qing said.
"Huh? Don't kill? How can you fight this battle without killing? Lin Bai was surprised.
"You don't understand, do you? The general will repeat to you, you Lin Bai must not kill people in the first line of defense, and those who violate it will be dealt with by military law. Because once you kill someone, you will destroy the entire city defense system! Do you understand? Zhu Qing deliberately raised his tone and said seriously.
"Yes! I see! Never kill! Lin Bai saw Zhu Qing's serious appearance, and a cold sweat broke out in his heart, and he stood upright.
"I have one more assignment for you." Zhu Qing looked at Lin Bai's expression, and his tone softened.
"General, please." Lin Bai didn't dare to laugh.
"What kind of army to talk about, call it big brother, this task is a private matter." Zhu Qing glared at Lin Bai, "Look at your appearance." ”
"Hehe......" Lin Bai scratched his head and smiled.
"Listen, this time you and Cheng Li are in charge of the first line of defense, I won't say much about the degree of danger, you know it in your own hearts, Cheng Li, this kid is calm, but sometimes he is too stuffy, I am worried that he will react slowly and suffer the enemy's loss, I will give you a task now, your reaction is faster than him, and it is more flexible than him, once something goes wrong, you must pull him back for me, don't kill the enemy and stick there stupidly." Zhu Qing said.
"Yes, big brother!"; Lin Bai responded.
"What big brother? This is the battlefield, I am the general! After Zhu Qing finished speaking, he deliberately emphasized again, okay, Lin Bai pulled back from randomness.
"Yes! Checkmate! Lin Bai immediately decided. Although he was still apprehensive in his heart, he couldn't figure out what this big brother was thinking, but he felt that Zhu Qing's words made him feel much more at ease.
"Go ahead! Don't oversleep! Zhu Qing said, turning around and walking towards Sai Shiqian and Xuanwu.
Lin Bai also went out of the city with his equipment and rushed to the first line of defense to join Cheng Li.
"Hmph, this kid is pretty fast." Sai Shiqian looked at Lin Bai's speed, shook his head and smiled.
"No matter how fast it is, it's not as fast as you." Xuanwu came coldly.
"Huh? Is it? Rat? Hey, it's been a long time since anyone called me a mouse. The game was stunned. Before the game, there was no such a mighty name, but as Xuanwu said, a mouse.
"Come on, do you really want to get that name back?" Zhu Qing smiled and walked over.
"General. We don't have to rest, do we? Brother Xuanwu and I are both nocturnal spirits. "The game moved to Zhu Qingdao.
Sai Shiqian is right, he himself is a habit of evening activities, and Xuanwu is also often the dragon at night. So these two people basically belong to a special group.
"Don't be able to wake you up with Dolgon's knives and guns." Zhu Qing said with a smile.
"Isn't that enough, just that little bit of wine, and still get me drunk?" Changed lanes during the race.
"Do you think I really want you to sleep? To tell you the truth, when I was eating just now, I had a very strong premonition, I even felt that we couldn't finish that meal, I asked my brothers to drink a little wine, it was by the strength of the wine, and I carried a knife and gun to kill the enemy at any time. Zhu Qing said, reaching out to catch a snowflake.
"It turns out that the eldest brother has premeditated." Xuanwu Dao.
"But now it seems that my hunch was a little worse, and the enemy delayed their arrival in the middle of the night. It's okay, let the brothers sleep while the wine is strong. With the sound of killing in the middle of the night, I hope everyone is in good spirits. Zhu Qing shook his head and smiled.
"Yes, big brother, then we'll go to the battlefield." Xuanwu Dao.
"Go ahead." Zhu Qing nodded, "Oh, wait, you are the last line of defense, if you find any movement at the back door later, you can divide a group of people over!" ”
"Why?" Xuanwu Dao.
"I can't tell. Anyway, I'll let you know. Zhu Qingdao said.
"Yes, General!"
