Alas, Qian Yuan was not a specialist in history after all. Among the Jinshi in the 35th year of Jiajing, except for Zhu Dashou and Tao Dalin, Shaoxing scholars such as Lin Run and Zou Yinglong, who impeached Yan Song and his son and left their names in history, Sun Piyang was a few big names.

Sun Piyang was a Jinshi in the 35th year of Jiajing. He was not famous during the Longqing period of Jiajing, but he was an important official in the court in the early period of Wanli. He served as the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Personnel. The "drawing lots" popular in the late Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty was created by him. Whoever is the official... The draw lots have the final say!

However, in the early years of Wanli, Sun Piyang was appointed as the right assistant censor and governor of Baoding, and was very helpful to border affairs. This person was from Shaanxi and was not unfamiliar with military affairs.

Zheng Ruo once wrote a transfer order and stamped it for the messenger to send it. The continuous military newspapers came over there. The Japanese pirates attacked Kuaiji, Shanyin in the afternoon, and the defending general Yuepuhe defended the city, killing many people, but the Japanese pirates fought to the death and attacked the city several times.

"No hurry." Zheng Ruo once whispered: "More than a thousand Japanese pirates attacked the city, and the soldiers under Yuepuhe were attacked to the top of the city so quickly, I'm afraid it was deliberately done."

Qian Yuan had some understanding of these things, so he turned to look at Mao Kun, who nodded and said, "On the way to Dongshan Town, Mao went to Shanyin, and Yuepu River asked for a batch of bird guns to be transferred."

Next, I can only wait. Without news, I can't do anything and dare not do anything.

At the same time, at the end of Shanyin city, Yue Puhe, wearing a chain mail, pressed his waist knife with his hands, and was full of energy. On the wall bricks under his feet, purple-black blood was flowing everywhere. The bodies of Japanese pirates who fell down crookedly were being thrown off the top of the city by the village hero... Of course, before being thrown down, I would be beheaded.

Mei Shoude, who was under the city, was whispering to Zhu Dashou, and the crowds were constantly passing by. The local brave men either carried bamboo baskets filled with steamed buns to the top of the city, or carried the door panels of the injured soldiers who were reprinted.

"Sir, the city wall is not damaged." Captain Liu trotted over with joy, his face full of joy. "On that day, Lord Qian ordered that one day, he would draw one beheading one ten times. I am really afraid that the city wall will be unstable!"

Mei Shoude nodded, "On the day of completion, someone tried the exhibition."

"Zhancai has never missed his work." Zhu Dashou smiled and said, "But fortunately there was Yue Guerrilla this time..."

"Yes." Mei Shoude nodded repeatedly. If it were Liu Xian, he would be really uneasy.

This afternoon, the Japanese pirates attacked fiercely and did not retreat. Mei Shoude and Zhu Dashou, who were under the city, were ashamed to see the Japanese pirates attacking the city. Unexpectedly, it was an ambush set up by Yuepu River.

You should know that it is not convenient to go up and down the city, especially in the southeastern city like Kuiji, Shanyin and Yuyao, because it has not been through war for a long time. There is a step down the city head for hundreds of steps.

Yuepuhe was brave and specially emptied a short stairs to let the Japanese pirates come up, mobilized bird guns to block both ends, killing the Japanese pirates completely. Even if the Japanese pirates do not have their lives, they jumped down... There were soldiers holding spears waiting below.

After two consecutive times, the Japanese pirates finally withdrew their troops. In one day, the Japanese pirates lost at least 300 lives, while the defenders only lost dozens of soldiers. The most important thing is that the battle of Yuepu River greatly enhanced the confidence of the soldiers and the township brave.

After taking the steamed bun and gnawing it a few bites, Yuepuhe strode down the city. When he saw Mei Shoude, he immediately bowed and said, "Mr. Wanxi, if the Japanese pirates do not increase their troops, Shanyin Kuaiji will be worry-free."

"Then please, General."

Zhu Dashou reminded: "Yue Guerrillas still need to be wary of Japanese pirates stealing the city at night. Last year, Cixi was almost stolen by Japanese pirates."

“It’s arranged.”

That night, the Japanese pirates stole the city, but the defenders were on high alert, and the Japanese pirates retreated helplessly.

On the second day, the Japanese pirates continued to attack the city, but they didn't have many methods. After all, they were not formal troops. They were afraid of the ambush set up by Yuepu River yesterday, and finally left dozens of lives and hurriedly retreated.

On the third day, the Japanese pirates made a comeback, but they had almost no measures and only confronted the defenders on the city.

"It's just a besieging the city and attacking aid." Yue Puhe smiled disdainfully and said, "Three days ago, the Governor's Office had an order to defend Shanyin Kuaiji, without leaving the city to attack the thieves."

Mei Shoude thought for a while, "Wu Weixi from Xiaoshan?"

Yue Puhe hesitated for a while before saying, "It depends on whether the Japanese pirate leader is going east or west... But the governor guards Xiaoshan and Qiantang, Hangzhou, and I am afraid that he will not come rashly to help."

On the fourth day, Yuepu River at the top of the city watched the Japanese pirates heading west in surprise, and immediately sent a scout to inquire.

The news soon reached Dongshan Town.

"I'm really going to attack Shangyu County?" Mao Kun shook his head, "Aren't you afraid that Yuepu River will cut off its retreat?"

Everyone was a little surprised, and at the same time turned to look at Zheng Ruozeng, saying a word became a warning!

"Shangyu County is a small town. Lu Peng was brought by Yuepu River from Huguang. He has five hundred defenders under his command, plus about a thousand local tyrants. Is the Japanese pirates sure to capture it?"

"So what if you conquer Shangyu? The Yuepu River in Shanyin and Liu Xian from Yuyao are behind him. Unless it is scattered into small trunks, it will be..."

Hu Zongxian frowned and stared at the map, turned to look at Qian Yuan who had been reading the military newspaper, "Zhancai?"

Qian Yuan put down the military newspaper, stood up and walked a few steps, and said softly: "Where is Xu Hai?"

The hall was quiet. Indeed, the key was not where the Japanese pirates attacked, but where Xu Hai was?

Qian Yuan took off the seedling knife from his waist, and pointed the tip of the knife to Shangyu County on the map. He slowly went north and moved left and right, obviously hesitantly.

"There are only more than a thousand Japanese pirates attacking Shanyin, and hundreds of them were killed or injured. Can there be more troops?"

Mao Kun looked down and said, "No."

"I can't attack Shanyin and Kuiji, I'll select Shangyu..." Qian Yuan murmured: "I'm afraid that the Japanese pirates will increase their troops..."

Before he finished speaking, soldiers outside reported loudly, and Shangyu sent General Lu Peng to the military newspaper.

Shen Mingchen took the military report and said, "Hundreds of Japanese pirates are attacking in the afternoon, and at dusk, more than a thousand Japanese pirates are increasing, and they are building ladders..."

Qian Yuan put down the Miao Dao, took the military newspaper and looked at it for a few times, then returned to the case and looked through the military newspaper he had sent before, his eyes wandering.

"Show talent?"

"Do you still remember?" Qian Yuan turned around and said slowly: "Last year, hundreds of Japanese pirates attacked Haiyan and fled to Pinghu. Lu Tong led his army to attack, and Xu Hai suddenly appeared in Pinghu..."

"Not bad!" Zheng Ruozeng slapped the table, "Xu Hai is eyeing Liu Xian!"

Everyone was in a commotion and quickly calmed down. Mao Kun licked his lips, "It is very likely that the Japanese pirates attacked Kuaiji, Shanyin and Shangyu, but they were afraid that they were to lure Liu Xian..."

"It's just that General Liu Shen..." Shen Mingchen stopped halfway through his words, and his eyes fell on Hu Zongxian.

If more than 3,000 soldiers under Liu Xian, who were stationed in Yuyao, were lured out by Japanese pirates to help Shanyin, Shangyu and Xu Hai, they would be afraid that Qi Jiguang and Wu Baipeng would not have time to come in a short period of time.

Hu Zongxian immediately signaled Wang Yin to write a military order, which ordered Liu Xian not to leave the city. After the messenger left in a hurry, he turned around and asked, "Why is Zhan Cai so sure?"

"First, every time Xu Hai invades, he will defeat the main force of the local government army first before he will divide his troops to rob him."

"Second..." Qian Yuan pressed his hand on the thick military newspaper on the desk, "Three days ago, the Japanese pirates landed from Lihai to attack Shanyin, and today they turned to attack Shangyu, Taizhou, and Ningbo, and there were also small groups of Japanese pirates attacking... But I didn't see a military newspaper where Japanese pirates fleeing near Yuyao!"

"It's more obvious to you." Zheng Ruozeng stroked his beard and smiled: "Xu Hai was afraid that Liu Xian would not leave the city to help Shanyin, Shangyu."

He Xinyin, who had accompanied Qian Yuan to go through two major battles in Jiaxing Prefecture, also nodded in agreement, "Last year, Ruan Yingjiang also mentioned that the Japanese pirates had not attacked Pinghu for more than a month, but..."

"Don't move." Zheng Ruozeng looked at Hu Zongxian, "But do you want to mobilize troops..."

The Miao knife in Qian Yuan's hand moved back and forth in the triangular land formed between Yuyao, Shanyin, Kuaiji and Shangyu counties. "Lihai Station has been broken, the Japanese pirates in Sanjiang Station do not attack, Linshanwei... Can there be military reports here?"

Mao Kun, who was in charge of the military newspaper, immediately replied: "No...but Linshan Guards are all soldiers of the garrison. If the Japanese pirates do not come to attack, they are afraid that they will not dare to release scouts to investigate."

"Xu Hai should have come..." Qian Yuan murmured: "Otherwise, he wouldn't have time to lure Liu Xian..."

"Show talent?"

"Where is Wang Yi?" Qian Yuan suddenly walked out with a Miao knife in his hand and pulled Wang Yi, the leader of the guard team, in.

"Now the Japanese pirates attacked Shanyin first and Shangyu later. Xu Hai's main force has not appeared, but it should have already arrived ashore..." Qian Yuan's Miao knife in his hand drew a circle in that triangle area, "But now the Japanese pirates cut off Jinghu, Lianghu, and the three counties, and even if they send scouts, they are only a few miles away..."

Wang Yi stared at the map intently and nodded slowly.

"Old Wang, you are a Bianjun, you are the best at spying on military information." Qian Yuan patted Wang Yi on the shoulder hard, "In recent years, you have also taken several apprentices and brought ten people to..."
