Chapter 49: The First Strike
"I'm not sure if I beat the small ones, but if it's really Zhang Mazi, the small one will definitely dare to pack a ticket, and he will definitely call him Zhang Mazi if he comes and goes!"
Shao Jiugong was anxious to perform meritorious service, and he was ready to fight again, looking at his hot eyes, he didn't know that this person was a well-known anti-Qing hero.
Zhou Shixiang smiled and asked him, "How are you going to fight?" ”
"How?" Shao Jiugong didn't think about it, and blurted out: "Of course, it's to lure him out and use the old method to deal with him again." ”
Poof!
Boss Hu laughed so much that he almost choked on his lungs: That Zhang Dade ate you lost twice, can you eat it a third time?
Shao Jiugong was confident, and said confidently: "Zhang Mazi is a rough man, he doesn't remember to eat, maybe he can still have more eyes for others, but he really wants to meet my little one, and the small one guarantees that he will still be fooled!" ”
Boss Hu was surprised: "Why? ”
"This Buddha is not fighting for a pillar of incense, people are fighting for a breath, that pockmark has been downloaded in my hand twice in a row, can he be convinced? If I do the same thing again, I'm sure the little one will have to do it again, because he doesn't believe in this evil! ”
I don't believe in this evil, but things in this world are still so evil!
Shao Jiugong is going to pit Zhang Dade to death, they all say that if you fall down, you will get up from somewhere, and when you get to Zhang Dade, you will fall from somewhere and then you can't get up
Zhou Shixiang has already adopted Shao Jiugong's method in his heart, although it sounds absurd, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the most suitable method for the current Taiping Camp, who let the Taiping Camp just be formed, the strength is too weak, and there is no way to take it by force, so you can only outwit it.
However, there is a tricky question, Zhou Shixiang asked Shao Jiugong: "We have no intention of storming Deqing City, if Zhang Dade shrinks in the city and refuses to come out, what can you do to lure him out?" ”
"There is no small one, as long as the small one takes someone to stand in front of Zhang Dade, he will have to come out if he doesn't come out!"
Shao Jiugong firmly believed that Zhang Dade would definitely swallow his bait, and said that Zhang Dade did not necessarily know that he had returned to the Ming Dynasty, so he could let him lead someone to disguise the Qing army and beat Zhang Dade with a dull stick. However, this proposal was vetoed by Zhou Shixiang, and Shao Jiugong was asked to go back to recuperate from his injuries first, and then inform him whether to go to war after the military meeting was confirmed.
After saying this, but he couldn't get a definite answer, Shao Jiugong was a little embarrassed in his heart, Shi Shiran was put back again, and on the way, he carefully pondered whether his performance just now was too much, and where he didn't do it well enough, otherwise why would people refuse to use their own
"Brother Hu thinks this method is feasible?"
Although Boss Hu appointed himself as the commander of the front battalion and could decide everything about the war with the Qing army, Zhou Shixiang still had to ask his opinion first, so that not only did he show respect, but he would not be suspected of being the main general of Boss Hu. Before the situation opened, Zhou Shixiang must ensure internal unity, so as not to eliminate external insults and internal gaps.
"Brother Zhou thinks it's feasible?" Boss Hu was noncommittal.
Zhou Shixiang nodded slightly: "I think you can give it a try." ”
Boss Hu asked him rhetorically: "What if Dade refuses to come out?" ”
Zhou Shixiang laughed: "That's naturally the best." ”
"Oh?" Boss Hu was a little puzzled.
Zhou Shixiang explained to him that the Qing army in Deqing did not move, which was undoubtedly the best situation, so that the Taiping camp did not have to worry about the Qing army coming, and there was enough time to integrate Luoding's manpower, money and food resources. On the contrary, if the Deqing Qing army is dispatched, then the Taiping Battalion must put down the matter at hand and concentrate on dealing with the Qing army, otherwise the people's hearts will be unstable, and the Taiping Camp that has just been built will also disappear.
In the end, Zhou Shixiang said that Yu Qi was worried that the Deqing Qing army would come at any time, so it was better to strike first, let's fight them first, so that the residents of Luoding who participated in the Taiping camp could rest assured, and they would not have to worry about this and that.
"You are the commander of the front battalion, since you want to fight, I will naturally not stop you, so let's ask Mr. Song to lead the troops to stay, and the rest of the teams will go out with you."
Boss Hu was resolute and unambiguous, and touched the saber on his waist with his one-arm: "I'll go with you to meet this pockmark!" ”
In the evening, Boss Hu summoned all teams to discuss the preemptive military proposal proposed by Zhou Shixiang, which was also requested by Zhou Shixiang, saying that it was brainstorming, but in essence he wanted these people to understand why they wanted to fight, and only by knowing why they wanted to fight, they could do their best.
Song Xianggong expressed his opinion first, and he said: "It's not impossible to strike first, and it's not a matter of always worrying that Deqing's Tartars will come over, but we have recruited more than 300 recruits in total, and they have never been on the battlefield, but Deqing's green battalion has 500 people, and I am afraid that this battle will not be easy to fight." ”
Zhou Shixiang said: "We are not fighting hard, but outwitting." At that moment, he told everyone what Shao Jiugong said, and everyone was amused after hearing it, but they all thought that this method should be able to pit Zhang Mazi again.
Zhao Sihai was worried: "Then how many people are we going to go?" If you want to go to the Deqing Green Camp, what will you do in the city? Didn't Brother Zhou say that those big families were unreliable, what if they took advantage of us to go out of the city and instigated those people who refused to join our army to turn against us? ”
Zhou Shixiang said: "Brother Hu means that Mr. Song will stay in the city to preside over the situation, and the soldiers of the Sihai Brothers will also stay and watch those people, and if there is any trouble, they will kill them." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Sihai raised his eyebrows: "Then it's better to kill them now, it's a hundred!" ”
Zhou Shixiang categorically refused: "Not now, the people don't have a heart with us, this will do it, those recruits won't listen to us, only when these soldiers are completely with us, we can make them willing to do things." ”
Song Xianggong also echoed: "Brother Zhou is right, besides, Qi Yuantai and they will not take the liberty of making a move, if they really want to make our rebellion, they would have done it a long time ago, why wait until now?" In my opinion, they are just waiting and seeing, if Deqing's green camp wins against us, they will definitely not listen to us again, otherwise, the Tartars have entered the city, can they have their good? ”
"If we want the people to be completely with us, we must defeat the green camp in Deqing, only in this way will the people be convinced of us and willing to follow us, instead of worrying that as soon as the Qing army arrives, we will run away and throw them to the scourge of the Qing army. In the same way, if we win, it will be much easier to go back and deal with those big households and residents who refuse to join us, and those recruits who followed us to fight the Deqing Green Battalion will not listen to us at that time! ”
"If you don't have anything to say, if not, let's go to Deqing early tomorrow morning!"
Boss Hu glanced at several teams, and everyone responded, so he asked them to go back and prepare and set off early tomorrow morning.
