The imperial court coalition army has entered Chengdu, and more than 50,000 people of the three armies have now encircled and attacked Chengdu. Although the three armies are on their own, they are generally united with each other, at least they can disperse the enemy forces in the city.

But at this time, the lower reaches of the Min River were different. After the 800 Qinglongmen soldiers led by Zhu Qing separated from the army in the ghost city of Fengdu, the lone army went deep and continued to go up the river, all the way to Yibin. Originally, he could have taken the Luzhou waterway and turned directly to Zigong, but Zhu Qing felt that since Xu Dingguo knew that Jinyiwei would take the waterway, he would definitely set up an ambush along the river, so after putting down a few Jinyiwei water ghosts in Luzhou and luring away the ambush at the mouth of the river, the "Qinglong" bypassed Luzhou, continued to move forward, and went to Yibin.

Yibin, the mouth of the lower reaches of the Minjiang River, goes upriver along the Minjiang River, and walks a section is Dujiangyan, and Dujiangyan is in the northwest corner of Chengdu. Once the situation in Chengdu changes, at least there will be people in the northwest to watch.

After docking in Yibin, the "Qinglong" did not rest on the shore.

"I'll leave you thirty people, you go north along the river, drive the boat to Dujiangyan, remember, keep an eye on the direction of Chengdu, and if there is any situation, immediately fly the pigeon and pass the book!" Zhu Qing unloaded the team and equipment ashore, left thirty water ghosts, and ordered the leader to drive the "Qinglong" to continue north. Xuanwu has surrounded the west city of Chengdu from the southeast and north sides, and only the west is a gap. Zhu Qing looked at the map, Jinyiwei attacked Chengdu from the direction of the Jialing River, and the most difficult place to take care of was the west. Therefore, Zhu Qing let the "Qinglong" go to Dujiangyan, which is to help Xuanwu keep an eye on the west, although there are not many personnel with the battleship, but they are all masters of water ghosts, and the "Qinglong", as the most well-equipped warship, can often stand alone with one ship.

When inspecting the equipment, Zhu Qing inadvertently asked the guards, "How many Tiangang Five Thunders do we have?" ”

"Report to the general, plus the three sent by Master Shi, there are seven in total."

"Seven?" Zhu Qing pondered for a moment, and greeted the "Qinglong" who was about to go offshore, "Wait!" As he spoke, he instructed the guards around him, "They are few in number, give them two, just in case they need it." ”

"Yes, General!"

In this way, the water ghosts on the "Qinglong" had two more Tiangang Five Thunders, and Zhu Qing waved his hand with some confidence and signaled them to leave.

After the "Qinglong" left, Zhu Qing summoned all the soldiers to make strategic arrangements.

Zhu Qing divided the 800 soldiers into three teams, one was the vanguard battalion, with a total of 90 people, mainly responsible for reconnaissance. After all, Zigong is not as good as Chengdu, Chengdu is to attack its unpreparedness, to Zigong did not find an abnormality, did not feed back to Chengdu before the end of the East Win Club, and Zigong itself Xu Dingguo is to wait for work, waiting for the rabbit, he expected that the Jinyi Guard would come, but in the end how to come, Xu Dingguo did not know, because he didn't know, Zhu Qing wanted to stir up with him, the last move to defeat the enemy, after all, on the face to face of the troops, Zhu Qing's 800 Jinyi Guards would definitely not be able to kill Xu Dingguo's tens of thousands of troops. This not only could not destroy the rebels, but also possibly made Xu Dingguo suspect Jinyiwei early, and then return to Chengdu. Therefore, it may be a good choice to send 90 scouts to harass Xu Dingguo while groping. Chengdu needs to fight quickly, but Xu Dingguo from Zigong can play around slowly. Because everyone knows that Jinyiwei is originally secretive, and the more invisible things people are, the more afraid they are!

"Ninety of you should divide yourself into three groups, one group is responsible for finding out Xu Dingguo's grain, grass, baggage, barracks and fortresses and other important strongholds; A group of people in charge of contacting the Chamber of Commerce in the city, especially Chen Jiujin, knew about the situation, but they must have been controlled by Xu Dingguo; There is also a group that is mainly responsible for harassing enemy forces and providing cover for others. Remember, never be exposed, and if you do, you know what to do! Zhu Qing instructed the reconnaissance battalion, as he spoke, he took out a piece of jade pendant and handed it to the leading guard of the reconnaissance battalion, "This is the jade pendant given to me by Boss Chen, after you find him, let him see this jade pendant, and he will believe you." Remember, if Xu Dingguo is really watching, he must come back in time to report to me, and he must not act rashly, even if Boss Chen is involved, he will delay the task! ”

"Understood!" The guards of the reconnaissance battalion turned out to be jade pendants and handed them over to another person, presumably the team leader who was responsible for finding Chen Jiujin.

After dividing the reconnaissance battalion to play the forward, Zhu Qing then divided into two teams, the second team was the baggage battalion, and the baggage battalion needed to transport grain, grass and equipment, so the target may be relatively large. Zhu Qing did not bring large equipment to fight Zigong this time, there were no catapults and earthen cannons, the heaviest one was probably Tiangang Five Thunder, and the others were some gunpowder, ammunition and the like. How to transport these things into the city is a question.

Zhu Qing had already considered this problem when he was on the boat, but when he made a temporary decision, he still chose a stupid way to pretend to be a refugee! But the premise is to disassemble the equipment first, and then take it out and reassemble it when you enter the city and find a stronghold, so the baggage battalion of the second team has to take the equipment except for some who are in charge of the grain and grass. The person who takes the grain and grass separates the grain and grass and puts it in the bag, first puts a layer of grass clippings at the bottom of the bag, then puts the grain, and then puts another layer of grass clippings on the top layer. At least 200 people in charge of grain and grass mixed into the refugees in batches and transported the grain into the city, because it was uncertain how long it would take to start with Xu Dingguo, and before that, they had to eat carefully.

After arranging the transportation of grain, the next most important thing is to transport the ordnance, these people have to be really skilled, can disassemble and assemble equipment, and ensure that the situation to dismantle and confuse the officers and soldiers, and what situation to pretend to solve the trouble. Such a person is obviously not suitable for pretending to be a refugee, but Zhu Qing has already thought about how to do it.

When he was in Luzhou, Jinyiwei ran into a group of craftsmen rushing to Zigong, and after inquiring, he realized that it was the Zigong County Ya who wanted to recruit people, saying that it was what kind of fortification, but Zhu Qing guessed that it must be Xu Dingguo who was doing ghosts, and he must have heard that Jinyiwei was coming, and he had no bottom in his heart, so he wanted to strengthen the city fortifications. Therefore, it is the safest choice for the Jinyi guard, who is in charge of the equipment, to disguise himself as a craftsman and enter the city. The barrel of the gun was removed first, and then divided into various parts and brought in, and the guards at the city gate probably had never seen such advanced guns, and when the time came, they said that they were used for fortifications, and not everyone could understand the work of craftsmen.

"What if I am actually taken to work in the city after entering the city?" The guard in charge of the apparatus asked worriedly. If the line is so well prepared, it will definitely be paid more attention to by the county government and guards, and then it will really be pulled to repair the fortifications, but it is not certain.

Zhu Qing smiled unconsciously after hearing this, "I still wish you were invited by them, if you really go, you still won't be able to do the fortifications?" ”

"It's going to be, but we can't really cultivate, right? This fortification was built to deal with us. ”

"Of course, you can't really cultivate, and in order to make it easier for us, the important thing is to do it seamlessly, without knowing it." Zhu Qing smiled at the corner of his mouth and said seriously.

When the guards heard this, they categorically understood and nodded, "Don't worry, general, brothers understand!" ”

Zhu Qing nodded, "I'll act if I figure it out." The army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first, this is the truth. Got it? ”

"Yes!" The 300 people of the baggage battalion also disguised themselves as refugees and craftsmen and moved separately and rushed in the direction of Zigong.

After dividing the two teams of nearly 400 people, Zhu Qing looked at the remaining 400 soldiers behind him, laughed at himself, and asked with a smile, "Tell me, can we call this an army?" ”

The soldiers looked at each other left and right, but there were only a few hundred people, where did the army come from? Everyone couldn't help but shake their heads, no matter how powerful his brocade guard was, even if he was one as ten, it would be impossible to fight with Xu Dingguo's tens of thousands of troops, and that was called an army!

The generals were a little unconfident, Zhu Qing smiled, and said loudly, "We are the army!" It's not much, it's fine, you are all the elites of Qinglongmen, so we can't fight Zigong according to the old rules! We've got to be smart! Got it? ”

"Understood!" Although there are still things I don't understand, the coach has said it, and if you don't understand, you have to shout out. According to Zhu Qing, if you don't understand this, continue to think about it, what if you think about it? And what if it is better to understand than to understand? This is the trait of elites, who tend to think more than ordinary people.

"General, are we waiting for the vanguard battalion or will we mix into Zigong in batches?" One of the guards asked.

Zhu Qing smiled slightly, pointed at the guard and responded, "Look, this is the benefit of thinking more, and now we have two choices." Everyone talks, which one should you choose? ”

Seeing that this was praised by the commander, everyone was active at this time, and said that those who had sneaked into the city said that they would wait for the reconnaissance battalion......

Even Chen Yuanyuan watched from the side, a little puzzled, this was not like what Jinyiwei looked like before the action.

Zhu Qing raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and said with a smile, "Actually, what you said is all right, not all of them are right, this has to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis, how to say it?" It's a philosophical question. ”

"Philosophy?" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it!

Zhu Qing feels that he shouldn't blow up the bull now, what the hell is philosophy, he still doesn't understand, how can he fool?

"Uh...... It's just ......" Zhu Qing was thinking about how to explain it to be more reliable, when Chen Yuanyuan suddenly asked, "Is it something that makes people smart?" ”

When Zhu Qing heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and gave Chen Yuanyuan a thumbs up, "This is it!" As he spoke, he turned to the soldiers, "Did you hear them?" Everyone usually thinks about philosophy in their spare time. ”

"Philosophy? Clever? ......" a group of brocade guards muttered thoughtfully.

Zhu Qing was scared into a cold sweat by himself, what philosophy is there to discuss?!

"Well, that, the specific problem I just said is a specific analysis, that is, if the reconnaissance battalion can get useful clues earlier, we will wait for clues to enter the city, if they have no news for a long time, then we will go into the city in batches, after all, there are many dreams at night, in case the enemy discovers the situation in Chengdu and slips out from under our noses, then we are sorry for the other brothers who are fighting in Chengdu." Zhu Qing felt that it was still necessary to talk about the problem. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the action is not unified at that time.

"Understood! General, let's pack up and sneak into the city at any time! One of the guards replied.

"Good! Look, look at the problem with more philosophical thoughts, and many problems will be solved! Remember! We're in the big army now! It's the workhorse! Even if there are few people, use my brain on the eve of the operation! But! It's all based on 'everything you do'! Got it?! "Zhu Qing wanted to stimulate his personal combat wisdom, but he was worried that these elites would go crazy, so he had to advise them!

"Understood!"

"Action!"

As soon as Zhu Qing gave the order, the four hundred soldiers became active one after another, as if they were not facing an enemy a hundred times more than them.

"Huh? What's going on today? So excited? After the soldiers left, Chen Yuanyuan pinched Zhu Qing and asked.

Zhu Qing sighed lightly, calmed down and said seriously, "The soldiers heard that there were tens of thousands of people in Xu Dingguo, and they panicked all the way, but there was no way, he needed manpower in Chengdu, and our battle was mainly to dig up Dongyinghui, such an organization was so big and silent under the nose of Jinyiwei, it was too dangerous." So we must help Xuanwu and them drag Xu Dingguo. But only if you have to boost morale! Otherwise, they haven't fought yet, and they're all cowardly...... I just want them to understand where the courage of the people in the position comes from! ”

Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but nod after hearing this, and then thought for a while.

"Hey, but don't think nonsense, stay by my side honestly, don't run around......" Zhu Qing even told him worriedly.

That's it, Chen Yuanyuan suddenly looked at Zhu Qing and asked, "Are you worried about me?" ”

Zhu Qing was stunned for a moment at this question......
