Chapter 60: The Gathering of Heroes

Pang He knew that if Song Jiang and Cai Jing joined forces to attack Huaiyin, it would be difficult for him to defend Huaiyin City. Not only can he not be satisfied in terms of troops and city defense, but more importantly, he needs the generals of his own system, he has been waiting for the arrival of the flower monk Lu Zhishen, but fortunately, he finally came, and they came together.

On this day, Pang He was working in the study, and Lu Shaoli ran over, saying that someone outside came to look for him, and one of them was still a monk, but he didn't look like a monk. When Pang He heard this, it was estimated that it should be Lu Zhishen and the monk They should be right, so he immediately got up and ran towards the door, and when he got to the door, he really saw Lu Zhishen and his group standing at the door. Pang He said happily: "Great, you guys are finally here, you want to kill me! Quick, come into the house!"

Lu Zhishen said as he walked: "Brother Pang, you are really special, you have come to such a place, and you have been looking for a long time!"

Pang He smiled: "You are used to living there, so you will treat it as your own home!

Nine-Pattern Dragon Shi Jin said: "Actually, it's okay, it's not difficult to find, we have come all the way from thousands of miles, and we have finally arrived, it's not over!"

Pang He said: "It's not too late, it's not too late!"

Walking into the study, Pang He took a look at the people who came: the flower monk Lu Zhishen, the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi, the nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin, the divine machine military master Zhu Wu, the sick lieutenant Chi Sun Li, the little lieutenant Chi Sun Xin, and the mother insect Gu sister-in-law, a total of six people.

Lu Zhishen looked at Pang He and looked at the six of them, and said with a smile: "Hey, Brother Pang, didn't you give us a place to live, we can't all live here!"

Pang He replied with a smile: "Of course this is impossible, you can come, naturally there is a place for you to live, I was just thinking about how to arrange for you first." ”

Sick Lieutenant Chi Sun Li said: "As for me, I still want to take back my horse army, as for them, you can arrange them as you like!"

Lu Zhishen said: "What is casual, I am not a casual person in the Sprinkle family, it is okay to hand over this infantry army to me, hand over the infantry army to the Sprinkle family, you can rest assured!"

Pang He smiled and said, "Well, I know, I know everyone's abilities. Let me tell you a situation in Huaiyin City first, and you can also tell me if you have any comments or suggestions, okay?"

Zhu Wu, the Divine Machine Commander, said: "Well, the situation in Huaiyin is not very optimistic now, let's listen to what the Pang He brothers say first." ”

Everyone nodded in unison, and Pang He said: "At present, Huaiyin City has 20,000 horse troops and 50,000 infantry, a total of 70,000 soldiers and horses, but about half of them are new joiners, that is, the army is not running-in, plus the veterans in the army, in fact, the real combat effectiveness is less than half of it." ”

Zhu Wu said: "This is indeed not very optimistic for defending the city. ”

Pang He said: "That's right, after the Xu Ning brothers came before, I discussed with him how to increase the defensive ability of the cavalry, through the hook and sickle, to resist the attack of the opponent's cavalry, and then to attack through long-range shooting. ”

Zhu Wu said: "This is indeed a good way, but doing so is a bit conservative, if I remember correctly, Brother Pang, you will rarely choose such a conservative method of combat." ”

Pang He replied, "Because, I don't think I can organize an effective attack, we have too few people to use." ”

Zhu Wu said: "Actually, if we have a lot of people, there must not be many people, but if we want to say less, it is not very little." Throughout the ages, there have been countless examples of winning more with less, and we should also maintain an aggressive posture, because if we don't attack, we will be in a passive state. ”

Pang He nodded: "I know, I was wrong, so what can we do now?"

Zhu Wu said: "Actually, your idea is right some times. But we certainly can't just think about using cavalry as the main role of defense, the most important feature of cavalry is that it is fast, has speed, and can run. You may think that our current cavalry is not very good, and with the terrain of Jiangnan, the cavalry may not be as useful as in the north. But you have to think about why we don't use it if it really works. To fight a war is often to seize one of one's own characteristics and strike a devastating blow at a weak point of the enemy. I think that now we can train multiple formations and combinations of troops, so that we can deal with multiple situations. ”

Pang He agreed: "Well, I think so too, the form of the battlefield is changing rapidly, and we need a variety of configurations to adapt to a variety of changes. ”

Zhu Wudao: "For the hook and sickle cavalry formation you mentioned, I think it can be considered, but the time is limited, we have to make a fuss about the formation and configuration, it takes a lot of effort and energy, I am worried that it will be too late in time." Have you ever thought that we would expand the battlefield?"

Pang He was suddenly clicked: "Yes, why didn't I think that we could expand the battlefield!"

Zhu Wu said with a smile: "That's right, Jiangnan is a water town, and we have one of the main advantages of Jiangnan, that is, the water nature of Jiangnan people, compared to the north, it is a big win." We can deploy our own forces in the surrounding rivers and lakes to intercept and kill the Song River. ”

Pang He said: "Yes, why didn't I think of this, the Jiangnan people's awakening is incomparable to the northerners, we have our own advantages, we should give full play to our own advantages." But I don't know who to train the trolls right now, and that's a problem. ”

Zhu Wu said: "I heard that the three heroes of the Ruan clan are on their way, and the three of them may be able to solve your current troubles. ”

Pang He was overjoyed: "Really, that's really good, with the three of them, my water army is not a problem." ”

Sister-in-law Gu said: "Well, I also heard about it, it seems that I came with Brother Liu Tang." ”

Pang He said happily: "You, plus the Liu Tang brothers, and the Ruan brothers, I am now very confident in guarding Huaiyin City!"

Zhu Wu said: "We are here to help you defend Huaiyin City, and by the way, we will also teach Song Jiang a lesson." Now Ma Jun and Bu Jun should be able to be assigned, Sister-in-law Gu, you are still the same as when you were in Liangshan, be in charge of the news!"

Sister-in-law Gu said: "Okay, I'll leave the matter of opening a hotel to find out the news, but, Brother Pang He, you have to fund me to open a hotel!"

Pang He smiled: "That's, definitely, must fund you, how much do you want, just ask!"

Sister-in-law Gu smiled: "I don't want much, I want a few hundred taels, whatever, it's better than the one in Liangshan!"

Everyone laughed, after Pang He finished discussing, he arranged a residence for them and assigned tasks, for the water army, Pang He could only come to the three Ruan brothers.
