Chapter 70: Unintentional Willow Insertion

But the day before yesterday, there was news that Baili Wuji had gone down to three states.

Firecrackers are being set off throughout Patong district to celebrate.

Gao Baorong was cold and discouraged, he knew that it was impossible for him to master the Black Flag Guard.

Hurry up and send a messenger to deliver a secret letter to his father, Gao Congzhi.

There were only four words in my father's reply - "Sit back and see what happens." ”

……。

Gao Congxue also felt a little remorse in his heart.

Sit and watch the growth of Baili Wuji, but there is nothing he can do.

But in his heart, he had to admire Baili Wuji, with 5,000 soldiers to shake the Shu army, I am afraid that even a madman would not dare to do something, but he did it, and he did it so freely.

I'm old, I'm really old.

I think I was not high-spirited and heroic back then.

Now there is only emotion.

It would be nice if I had such a son......

It's a pity that Gao Baoxun was detained for rebellion, and it would be good to have a good end in this life.

Baorong This kid is too wooden, too small, and can't afford to take on a big responsibility.

But there was no way, and now it was only him.

Bao Mian is a talented child, but it's a pity that he is too young, so let Bao Rong take it first, and then let him take over ten years later.

Thinking of Gao Baomian, Gao Cong's bark-like old face gradually showed a smiling face.

The future of the Gao family depends on him, and he should leave a solid foundation for Baomian.

All right. Baili family child, this king will give you this opportunity, I hope you can support the counterattack of Shu, and it can be regarded as giving Nanping a long face.

At this time, Baili Wuji was very busy, and on the one hand, he ordered Xu Shiming to be responsible for arranging the affairs of the yamen of Kui, An, Wan, and Zhongzhou, and on the other hand, he wanted to arrange the city defense of Zhongzhou to resist the attack of the Shu army.

The policy of government affairs is not to make adjustments to any of the yamen under its jurisdiction for the time being, and to maintain the status quo as it is, so as to ensure a smooth transition under the administration.

This move also calmed the people's minds to the greatest extent as soon as possible, and could effectively convey Baili Wuji's orders downward, but in fact, Baili Wuji did not have so many available people in his hands.

In fact, Baili Wuji has been worried, in the past ten years, the city has suddenly changed the king's flag, and the people have become accustomed to it.

For the people, do whatever you like, just don't come to harm us.

The city's defense and armament are the first priority at the moment.

Baili Wuji himself and the three of them will settle the results of the battle, arrange for the medical department to treat the wounded, and compensate the families of the dead.

After liquidation, the Black Flag Guard marched against 5,000 men, 827 killed, 406 wounded, and one-third of the battle losses.

annihilated 10,000 people and 864 cavalry of the Shu army; Kui Wan Jiedu sent Hou Hongshi 6,000 people, totaling more than 16,800 people, of which more than 2,500 were killed and 3,800 were killed and wounded, of which more than 1,200 were seriously injured and disabled, and more than 2,600 were lightly injured; More than 9,500 people were captured.

With less than 4,000 available troops, Yun Yang took another battalion of bows and crossbows, and the strength of the defenders was less than 3,500.

Although there are many captives, they are not needed at all, and if these captives are incorporated into the Black Flag Guard, they may be put on a good show of rebellion.

The 2,000 troops sent by my father to Padang could not move, otherwise if the defense of the city failed, Padang would not be able to return. My father's 3,000 government troops in Zigui can't be counted on, and if these 3,000 government troops move, I'm afraid that my father's position in the state assassin will not be able to be saved.

It's definitely not appropriate to go out of the city to fight.

The Shu army must have been strictly guarded against this attack, even if the wild is victorious, it is also a tragic victory.

The remaining Black Flag Guard forces are not enough to deter the Shu army, and the consequence is that the Shu army will attack endlessly, which is not what Baili Wuji wants.

The road out of the city to meet the battle has been blocked, and the rest can only stick to Chungju City.

Although holding on to the city can reduce the battle damage, it also loses the initiative.

How can we realize the intention of both killing the Shu army and protecting the Black Flag Guard.

Baili Wuji has been discussing with Yu and Ma for several hours, but he can't get the essentials.

That's it, Brother Yun, the battle to defend the city can only rely on you.

Chungju Fortress has only three gates: east, west, and north.

The east gate has been blown up, and personnel are being arranged to repair it.

Baili Wuji ordered the three firearms battalions in the city to plant a large number of mines within a radius of five zhang from the west and north gates. The east gate connects Wan and Gui Erzhou, which is a supply line, and unless the Shu army sailors break through Yunyang's blocking line and land from Wanzhou, it is impossible to appear at the east gate.

Baili Wuji asked people to draw pictures to mark the location of the burial, in case of accidents after the war.

The mine is a pull line type, one is buried in each foot, the green bamboo of several zhang is selected to open up the inner section, the pull rope of the mine is knotted into a rope and penetrates into the green bamboo, and a fine ditch is dug at the interval between the mines, and the green bamboo is buried in the fine ditch, and the soil is covered with solid soil, so that the rope can be pulled in the city gate to explode the mine, and the pull rope can be protected from being damaged.

The density of one foot by one used up all the mines carried by the Black Flag Guard, and Baili Wuji ordered the Padang Armory to transport them quickly.

Four days later.

The first day of the sixth month of the third year of Jin Tianfu.

Shu Wuxin Jiedu made Han Jixun lead 30,000 troops from Quzhou to attack Zhongzhou, and Wude Jiedu made Wang Chuhui lead 5,000 sailors to attack Zhongzhou along the river.

The third day of June.

The transport battalion traveled day and night to deliver all the mines, explosives packs and grenades stockpiled at the Patong Armory.

To Baili Wuji's surprise, Baili Ren also came.

"Dalang, how are you doing?"

Bailiren's first words when he entered the house.

"Hmm. How is Patong County doing? What is the change in the world? ”

"Okay. The prince is also very peaceful, and stays in the barracks every day. Dalang, guess what I brought you? ”

"What goodies can you bring? It can't be Cui, right? Baili Wuji was really happy to see Bailiren, and casually joked.

Bailiren didn't react, and said excitedly: "Da Lang, you come with me, you must be happy to see it." ”

Baili Ren led Wuji to the transport camp.

Dozens of ox carts in the camp were loaded with stuff and covered with tarpaulins.

Baili Wuji knew that these should be the firearms sent by the transport battalion.

I don't see anything else.

Wuji turned his head to look at Bailiren.

Shimi Bailiren smiled mysteriously and uncovered the tarpaulin on one of the cars.

Windmill? Not quite like that. A cast-iron tripod, about four feet high, is fitted with a wheel about two feet in diameter on one side, the center of which is fixed at the highest point of the triangle. On the other side there was a handle, like a reel from the well, which was supposed to be used to shake the wheel, and on top of the wheel was a three-inch iron box with a lid at intervals, six in all.

Baili Wuji was surprised, what is this?

Seeing that Baili Wuji couldn't understand, Baili Ren stepped forward and said, "Da Lang, you can see them demonstrate, and you will understand." ”

Then he ordered his retinue to unload the "windmill," find an open space in the camp, fix the cast-iron frame of the "windmill" on the ground, and then take out a few iron balls from another cart that were slightly larger than a fist, put them into an iron box on the wheel, and cover them.
