Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 326 Countermeasures

It is said that a letter from Zhang Shun was delivered to Huixian City, and Deng Qi, Zuo Liangyu and others were in a dilemma.

Zhang Shun's move was a simple conspiracy, but they couldn't help but take it. Conspiracy is different from conspiracy. The purpose of conspiracy is to keep it secret. Once it is known, it will be difficult to take precautions. However, Yangmou pays attention to being upright and lets you know that you have to take off your pants and get slapped.

Especially when Deng Qi was defeated by Zhang Shun, he was turned away when he passed by the city of Huaiqing Mansion. Now he had to eagerly get in, how cheap is he?

At the end, there was really no other way. Zuo Liangyu had to stand up and said to the generals: "It really can't be done, so we can only write a letter of challenge. We can be forgiven for losing the battle. If we sit back and watch the fall of Huaiqing Mansion, we will lose our clan." Fan, you and I can’t bear it!”

Unexpectedly, Deng Qi was stunned when she heard this. An idea flashed in her heart and she quickly asked: "What did you just say?"

"You and I can't bear the loss of our clan." Zuo Liangyu had no choice but to repeat it.

"Not this sentence, not this sentence, not the previous sentence!" Deng Qi asked anxiously.

"Sit back and watch the fall of Huaiqing Mansion?" Zuo Liangyu continued to narrate doubtfully.

"Yes, that's it!" Deng Qi slapped her thigh and said, "I had a plan in mind!"

"How do you say this?" When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but asked happily.

"You are all experienced in military affairs. Can you understand why the attack on the city can be carried out instantly?" Deng Qi asked with a smile.

"If we are prepared, even a few hundred soldiers can defend it for ten days and a half." Everyone laughed and said, "Yes, that's right. There are often rogues in Huaiqing Mansion, and they have been attacked many times. The city has never been breached, which shows that its defense is rigorous. Even though the thieves are powerful now, they cannot attack overnight."

"However, if we are not afraid of ten thousand, we are afraid of the worst. If we sit idly by and ignore anything, if something changes, we will be unforgivable!" Tang Jiuzhou reminded quickly.

"Sit back and ignore it? Why sit back and ignore it?" Deng Qi laughed and said, "I lost my sense just now. In fact, this matter is easy. We just need to stick to it. If the enemy advances, we will follow, and if the enemy attacks, we will defend." , it is only half a day’s journey from its main force. Even if he doesn’t dare to ignore it, he will attack the city directly.”

"If the thieves dare to attack the city, we will only need to wait for their soldiers to slack off, attack from both inside and outside, and defeat this bandit army in one go. If the thieves dare not attack the city, we will wear them down until they run out of food and grass. Fight and lose!"

When the generals heard this, they were overjoyed and even praised Deng Qi as "Zhuge is reincarnated, waiting for his rebirth." Deng Qi did not blush and was quite smug.

It turns out that in addition to fighting and defending, there is another method of using troops, which can be called "sticking up" or "sticking up". This is a method used when the strength is insufficient or it is not convenient for a decisive battle.

This technique is like a tiger or leopard hunting, keeping an eye on the enemy at all times. Once the enemy reveals a flaw, he pounces on him and defeats him.

But at the same time, when you are staring at the enemy, the enemy is also staring at you. If you leak a flaw, you will be easily defeated by the enemy.

This technique tests the general's courage and vigilance. If the general is not courageous, he will not dare to "stick up", which will easily cause the enemy to slip away; if the general is not alert enough, the enemy will easily seize the flaw and be defeated in a battle.

On the second day, Zhang Shun received a letter from Deng Qi, claiming that Zhang Shun should wait for one day to prepare for a showdown with Zhang Shun.

To be honest, Zhang Shun was really confused after receiving this letter. He originally thought that Deng Qi, Zuo Liangyu and others were in a dilemma, but he did not expect that the other party would be so decisive, which was beyond his expectation.

Therefore, Zhang Shun quickly summoned his generals and held a small meeting in the Chinese army's tent.

Although Zhang Shuntian was a prodigy and had good military talent, he had too little experience and relied only on a few military books and his own guessing without the guidance of an expert. After all, he still had some flaws. Not to mention the other people under Zhang Shun, they are not even at Zhang Shun's level.

After listening to Zhang Shun's story, everyone looked at each other in shock. Everyone felt that there must be a fraud, but they didn't know where the fraud came from.

Song Xiance pondered for a long time. Seeing that many others did not speak, he stood up and said: "Master, according to our estimation, Deng Qi and Zuo Liangyu should have been in a dilemma and were slow to respond. But now they are unexpected, and they must have responded decisively. Rely on."

"In Song's opinion, what he relies on is nothing more than the following: First, there are reinforcements from outside, and officers and soldiers may be mobilized from elsewhere to jointly attack our army; second, it means cutting off our food and grass, which our rebels have always come to plunder. , plundering and leaving without any savings, they must be planning to start from here; third, it is just to rely on external forces, either water and fire, or red barbarian cannons. Other than that, there is no other way."

Song Xiance talked for a long time, but it was all nonsense, but fortunately it calmed people's hearts. Zhang Shun thought about it for a while and felt that the officers and soldiers were very weak and the only way to deal with it was this, so he felt a little at ease.

Thinking of this, Zhang smiled and said: "If this is the case, it would be easy to deal with it. If there are reinforcements from outside, they will be from Cao Wenzhao of Shanxi and the governor of Henan. I ordered 'Chuang Jiang' and Li to deal with Cao Wenzhao." Xin strengthens defense and patrols to prevent others from taking advantage of him. The governor of Henan cannot use his troops. As long as he can detect clearly, a sudden attack by the cavalry can determine the winner."

"The matter of food and fodder is quite confidential and should not be known to anyone. Since something unusual has happened, it is better to be cautious just in case. I will order Zhang Shenyan and Xu Ziyuan to act with caution and send people to support in time."

"As for relying on external forces, our military camp is stationed at a high place and is close to a river, so there is no risk of floods or water shortages. The fences and other objects outside the camp are easy to catch fire, so I immediately ordered the rebels to apply mud to prevent the officers and soldiers from Fire attack.”

"As for the Red Yi cannon, it is very powerful and must be guarded against. I have already ordered Chen Changzhen to go to Wu'an, Lin County and other places to make friends with the local rebels and harass the officers and soldiers' retreat. If the Red Yi cannon appears again, he should inform me as soon as possible."

"But if officers and soldiers come from elsewhere, they must be on guard. I will convene a meeting of rebel commanders and propose that the cannons in the hands of the rebels be used together to suppress the possible appearance of Hongyi cannons."

When the generals heard this, you looked at me and I looked at you. Zhang Shun and Song Xiance had thought carefully, but they had nothing to add.

Afterwards, Zhang dismissed the meeting and summoned the rebel generals to discuss matters. Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Shun suggested that the officers and soldiers might have some countermeasures, the "King of Troubled Times" said angrily: "That's it? Just like that, we still have to fight a decisive battle with someone. I'm afraid it's not the birthday boy who hangs himself and gets impatient!"
