Chapter One Hundred and Fifty
Qian Yuan had read that novel in his previous life, and saw the discussions between famous general Qi Jiguang and Tan Lun about the Southeast Coast Soldiers, and also discussed it with netizens on the forum, but he still couldn't imagine it.
I remember that in history, Qi Jiguang and Tan Lun discussed the Shaoxing army and Chuzhou army, each with their own advantages and disadvantages, but at least they can form an army, at least they can maintain the basic quality of an army without encountering Japanese pirates.
But the soldiers of the vanguards in Hangzhou... started to make a fuss as soon as they left Beixin Pass. If it weren't for Qi Jiguang's personal soldiers and Qian's guards, they would have been mutiny on the spot and fled without a trace.
No wonder, other garrisons also have to farm, while the Hangzhou vanguards don’t even grow land. They all turn into merchants, and what they are best at is bargaining and holding the cut and splitting the silver.
"Why tell them?" Wang Yin asked tentatively.
Qi Jiguang, with a pale face, immediately shook his head, "No, tell them... believe it or not, they mutiny immediately!"
Qian Yuan sighed. Qi Jiguang has really suffered in the past six months. Even this famous general who is regarded as the best in history, he can't make steel even if he is refined.
Xu Wei pointed at Wang Yin's nose contemptuously, "Did you find out? This kid is soft-hearted."
"If you do big things, you can't worry about minor matters." Qi Jiguang echoed expressionlessly: "It is their duty to be a soldier and kill thieves. Death on the battlefield... No matter how you die, it is not a pity."
Qian Yuan didn't say anything, Qi Jiguang was right. Although the Hangzhou vanguard would definitely be cheated badly this time, since he became a soldier, he had to raise his swords and guns.
Two fast horses galloped in the distance. Hu Zongxian, who was walking in the front, immediately reached out to stop. Qi Jiguang turned over and got off the horse and asked for details in person.
This time, only sixty Qian family guards were out of the city to meet the enemy, fifty Qi Jiguang brought personal soldiers from Shandong, and seven or eight hundred soldiers from the vanguard of Hangzhou seemed to be quite large, but let alone defeating the Japanese pirates, they could not even be able to do so.
When leaving the city to meet the enemy, military intelligence first came first. Qi Jiguang and Qian Yuan both spread out the elites in their hands and tried to capture more and more careful dynamics of the Japanese pirates.
Hu Zongxian, who was ahead, walked back strode back. Although Zhao Wenhua had no courage to run away, he refused to follow him out of the city and remained in the government office.
"In Linping Mountain." Hu Zongxian whispered: "About 400 Japanese pirates, there is no sign of any movement at present."
Qian Yuan quickly spread the map, "Linping Mountain... between Yuhang and Beixin Pass, uh, it's only more than twenty miles away from Yuhang, very close."
"Have the villagers evacuated?"
"Most of them have been evacuated, but many people refuse to leave..." Hu Zongxian shook his head helplessly, "Don't worry, let's take care of the Japanese pirates first."
Qian Yuan reviewed the entire plan in his mind and smiled bitterly: "Brother Ruzhen's plan sounds good, but... the Japanese pirates are not so stupid, right?"
In Qian Yuan's idea, Hu Zongxian's strategy is simply a joke, very similar to the one extracted from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin".
"Then what else is there?" Xu Wei said disdainfully: "You will definitely not be able to fight... Otherwise, if you retreat to Beixin Pass and try your luck, maybe the Japanese pirates cannot conquer Yuhang or Hangzhou."
Qian Yuan was speechless. He squatted in the bathroom and took off his pants. Now he changed to a squat pit?
It has to be said that although Qian Yuan, Hu Zongxian, and Xu Wei have all experienced the battlefield, they are not talented, intuitive, and inherited commanders.
Therefore, Qian Yuan’s goal is to officially launch Qi Jiguang.
"Brother Ruzhen?" Qian Yuan reminded Hu Zongxian to fulfill his promise.
Qian Yuan pointed out this point before leaving the city. Although Hu Zongxian had been on the battlefield, he was just an inspector as a censor and had no experience in directing the battle.
In other words, Hu Zongxian, Qian Yuan and Xu Wei may have strong strategic thinking and have strong control over the overall situation, but they must rely on those generals in direct command. This is the result of a clear distinction between civil and military affairs since the Tang Dynasty.
Hu Zongxian nodded slightly, "Along the way, although the Hangzhou vanguards were in a state of chaos, the front and rear teams were suppressed effectively, and the scouts released had clear purpose. Qi Guerrilla was obviously very familiar with the terrain."
Hu Zongxian stood up and bowed, "Please give me everything."
"Yuan Jing, we have discussed various plans and plans, once there is a change..."
Before Qian Yuan finished speaking, Qi Jiguang bowed and said, "Don't hesitate to this."
...
In fact, Tongxiang County is not far from Yuhang, and it takes up to half a day to turn from Shitang Bay to Yuhang.
Therefore, the military newspapers that Yuhang was attacked and even Beixin Pass were attacked had long been spread to Tongxiang.
Zhang Jing threw away the military newspaper expressionlessly, turned to look at the map hanging on the wall.
Li Tianchong, who was beside him, was a little gloating, but was also a little surprised, "Mr. Banzhou, I didn't expect that the guy didn't send anyone to ask for help."
Zhang Jing didn't say anything, and the implication was very clear. Zhao Wenhua knew that I, the governor, would never send troops back to the rescue.
However, although this is just Zhao Wenhua judges a gentleman with a villain's heart, Zhang Jing does not send troops back to help because Xu Hai is too hard to do anything.
Xu Hai led his troops into Wujiang, and then went south to Jiaxing Prefecture, and was surrounded on all sides. However, in this dilemma, Xu Hai still showed his talent.
On November 10, Xu Hai led his troops to attack Huzhou Prefecture in the west. Tang Kekuan dispatched his troops to intercept him, but Xu Hai immediately turned around and used 500 real Japanese as the vanguards. He defeated Taozhuang in the first battle, Xiushui in the second battle, and defeated the gang general Zong Li in the third battle, and pointed directly at Tongxiang County, the governor of the six southeastern provinces.
Although everyone knew very well that Xu Hai's move was a move to survive in death, and he hoped to find a breakthrough in the chaos.
Everyone also knew very well that if Xu Hai conquered Tongxiang County, then Jiaxing Prefecture would be very decayed. From top to bottom, both civil officials and generals would definitely not have a good end... It would be good to be able to protect the capital of Liuyangkui.
But this time, Zhang Jing showed the style of an old coach who had been in battle for a long time, and also showed his personal characteristics of being as fierce as a fire and as firm as a mountain.
Tongxiang County sent messengers, Lu Tong, Tang Kekuan, Yu Dayou, and Wu Baipeng, and all officers and soldiers followed the steps, neither advancing nor returning to Tongxiang County.
At the same time, the three thousand wolf soldiers set up their formation outside Tongxiang City. It is obvious that Zhang Jing has a preparatory plan for Xu Hai's choice.
The bright Miao Dao, bloodthirsty vision, and the extremely crazy desire of the wolf soldiers for the head level made Xu Hai stop.
After a day and night of fierce battle, Xu Hai was unable to defeat the wolf soldiers, and the army of various groups gradually caught up. Xu Hai could only go south again through the gaps deliberately exposed by the officers and soldiers, and was surrounded in Wangjiangjing.
Although the siege has been completed, it is still difficult to say whether the Japanese pirates can be defeated. In addition to the wolf soldiers, the performance of various visiting soldiers against the Japanese pirates is difficult to satisfy Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing shook his sleeves and said, "I sent an order, Yu Dayou did not move, and transferred Tianzhou wolf soldiers to Wangjiangjing."
After a pause, Zhang Jing rolled up his sleeves and said, "Change dress, I will go to Wangjiangjing in person!"
"Banzhou Gong, isn't this the case?"
"I can strangle Xu Hai, I will do whatever I can!"
Li Tianchongyangyang said in his hand, "Where is the Yuhang?"
"Sustained for the time being, up to 500 Japanese pirates can be cut off even if the canal is cut off. It can be broken with one blow."
Li Tianchong was speechless. He knew and agreed very well that the five hundred Japanese pirates could not affect the overall situation, and it was impossible for them to attack Hangzhou City if they were too stupid.
However, the robbery of Japanese pirates near Yuhang can affect some people.
