Chapter 52: Rest against the Wall

Three days passed in a flash, in these three days, because Wang Feng no longer concealed the formation, marching along a straight line, where he passed, in addition to Changzhou Mansion, the rest of Changshu, Taicang and other important cities were also shaken, all of them frantically shouted that the long hair is coming!

Sheng Xuanhuai began to study intensely, while hurrying, while memorizing words, from time to time to deal with Wang Feng's sudden questions, in addition, Wang Feng also took the time to teach him mathematics, physics and chemistry, using the method of cramming education.

As a teacher, maybe it was because he suffered too much when he practiced boxing in his previous life, or maybe it was related to the harsh environment of the special forces, Wang Feng never praised him, and it was natural for him to learn well, otherwise why would others teach you if they didn't teach him? At most, it's just a little bit of the head, and if it doesn't meet the requirements, it's definitely all kinds of cynicism!

On the evening of the third day, Wang Feng and Hong Xuanjiao led the army through Taicang Mansion and successfully rendezvous with the four spies sent out at the junction of Jiading County and Songjiang County.

"Commander of the Guardian Army!" One of them, Shi Li, said: "During the day today, Xiaodao will try to break through from Shanghai, but near Hongqiao, it was intercepted by the Qing Demon and the foreigners, and was beaten back, and the main force of the Qing Demon Xu Naizhao Department is stationed in Jiading, of which about 4,000 troops are besieging Shanghai, and most of his ordnance and grain are stationed in Songjiang. ”

Wang Feng unfolded the map and looked at it, Shanghai was a very small place at that time, mainly in Shanghai County, east of the Huangpu River, the other three sides were surrounded by British, French and American concessions, Jiading County and Songjiang County mentioned by the spies belonged to the jurisdiction of Taicang Prefecture, which was the boundary of Jiangsu, of which Songjiang County was close to the Yangtze River, there was a wharf for transportation, and the distance between the two counties was about 40 miles.

Hong Xuanjiao leaned over and said: "I didn't expect the Qing Demon to collude with the foreigners so quickly, however, Xu Naizhao's arrangement is still quite reasonable, it is convenient and safe to garrison supplies in Songjiang, but Songjiang is a small city, and there are not too many troops stationed, so he has to move the main force to Jiading, Wang Feng, at this time, you should take advantage of Xu Naizhao's unpreparedness to capture Songjiang immediately, don't you have three hundred pigtailed soldiers?" Maybe it could be used to trick the city gates. ”

"Brilliant plan!" Wang Feng slapped his thigh violently, and praised with an exaggerated expression: "Just do what Sister Xuanjiao said!" ”

It's obviously a compliment, but it falls in Hong Xuanjiao's ears like a sneer, just like a normal person can think of it, and it can't be thought of if it's abnormal, Hong Xuanjiao's complacent mood dissipated instantly, but it was not good to say much, so she could only lose an angry look.

Wang Feng shrugged his shoulders blankly, then turned his head and shouted: "The whole army rests for half an hour, and then marches to Songjiang overnight, tomorrow morning, let's go into the city for dinner!" ”

Orders were issued layer by layer, and everyone seized the time to rest and eat, and after half an hour, they trotted towards Songjiang County.

Songjiang is about ten miles in radius, when they arrived nearby, the general was about to pass eight o'clock, Wang Feng asked the whole army to hide three miles away from the city, and led himself to lead three hundred pigtailed soldiers and three hundred false pigtail soldiers, lit torches and slowly advanced.

"Who? Hold it! "There are still more than 300 meters away from the city, and there is a sudden shout of reprimand from the city.

Wang Feng waved his hand violently, and the six hundred people behind him stopped, and then called upward: "The bandits have a group of men and horses secretly sneaking to rescue the knife bandits, we will be ordered by the commander to pursue here, and open the city gate quickly!" ”

The city also called: "The grain camp is heavy, and it is inconvenient to open the door in the middle of the night, please go elsewhere!" ”

"Scolding the guy next door!" Wang Feng suddenly scolded: "Since Lao Tzu received the order of the commander, I am worried that you will be attacked by bandits, it only took seven days to come from Jiangning, and now I haven't even fished saliva to drink, but you guys are good, and they will send them away if it is inconvenient to open the door?" As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and shook it to the city: "This is the commander's military order, open the door quickly!" Let's eat and drink enough and rest well before we can fight the bandits, otherwise we will lose the battle, how many heads do you have to fill? ”

Through the flickering firelight, looking down from above, the people below are indeed Qing soldiers, and Wang Feng is full of scolding, which is the most standard green battalion soldier oil school, more importantly, Xu Naizhao did receive a letter from Xiang Rong two days ago, saying that the bandits have the possibility of rescuing the knife club, let him pay more attention, and in order not to chill Xu Naizhao, Xiang Rong claimed that he was mobilizing the army, and then considered whether to send reinforcements according to the situation.

"May I ask who is the leader of the army?" A general in the city asked.

Wang Feng said impatiently: "Lao Tzu is the subordinate of General Fu Xingfu of Jiangning, Lord Fu will come tomorrow, hurry up and open the city gate, if Lord Fu is to blame, can you afford it?" ”

The city seemed to discuss for a while, and after a while, he called: "Since it is the brothers who have come to support, it is reasonable for us to open the door, but Lord Xu has issued a strict order not to open the door after sunset, otherwise, you will wait under the city first, and we will immediately send a fast horse to ask Lord Xu, how about it?" ”

"Damn, fool me, huh? Where is Lord Xu? Is it Jiading or Shanghai? Can you find it before dawn? Well? Wang Feng was scolding, and waved his hand violently, and the whole army immediately scolded.

These people are all Qing army voices, talking about scolding, all of them have sharp teeth and sharp mouths, but no matter how the city head scolds, they don't open the door, and even the echo is gone, Lu Dayou can't help but come over and say: "Division commander, the Qing army doesn't enter with oil and salt, if the subordinates are not mistaken, the Songjiang army will have a thousand troops, and our army has more than 4,000 people, or give an order to attack." ”

"No!" Wang Feng hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand: "In today's world, the number of people is less and less important in the factors that determine the outcome of a war, and victory depends on the close cooperation of resourcefulness, intelligence, strategy and tactics, and weapons and equipment. How many cannons did he erect, how many guns? Well?

If we can't attack for a long time, we will be rushed by Jiading reinforcements, and we will cooperate with the Songjiang defenders, not to mention the failure of the rescue operation, and our army may suffer heavy casualties, we are still very weak now, we do not have the ability to fight hard with the enemy, we can outwit and try not to be strong, come, let the brothers shut their mouths first. ”

"Oh~~" Lu Dayou replied, turned around and gestured, the whole army gradually stopped scolding, Wang Feng called to the city again: "You have difficulties, we also understand, but we are really tired all day, so let's not enter the city, only rest on the city wall, you fall down with some food and water, what is the matter at dawn, how about it?" ”

Wang Feng was very compromised and made full concessions, both of them were Qing troops, and if they didn't enter the city, they couldn't even rest against the city wall, right? Sure enough, the city called: "Brothers below, I'm sorry, I'll wait for Lord Xu to entertain you tomorrow, please come over now." ”

Wang Feng waved his hand and led the whole army towards the city wall, but what the defenders at the head of the city didn't notice was that Wang Feng's group was marching in the direction of facing the city gate.

Soon, with the city gate as the center, everyone sat down with their backs against the city wall, they were really resting, and the torches were not extinguished, it was clear from top to bottom, which made the defenders more reassured!
