Xu Hai immediately turned around in anger and looked at Chongde County far away. Although he had known that it was very difficult to attack the city, Yu Dayou was said to be unable to afford to be injured. Only Lu Bin and three or four hundred soldiers were there. Xu Hai felt that the possibility of breaking the city was not small.

From the perspective of command ability, there is no doubt that Xu Hai is superior to Lu Bin. The simple dispersed troops and found an opportunity to put Lu Bin in trouble. Today, the Japanese pirates once gained a foothold on the city wall is a proof.

But what Xu Hai did not expect was that Chongde County organized almost all the men in the city, and the township warriors either assisted in the war, explored, or transported supplies, so that the total number of defenders had not been less than 800.

Chongde County is a small city. Even if Xu Hai threw the three thousand Japanese pirates gathered by his subordinates into the battlefield, the contact surface was so narrow that he could not exert his military strength advantage.

After urging the horse to return to the village, Xu Hai stepped into the courtyard, threw down his helmet and hummed unhappily, "Sir, is that letter useful?"

Mr. Fang smiled bitterly and said, "It's useless, but at least he gave the general a step... and then he attacked the city, Ye Ma might be a little unstable."

As he was talking, Ye Ma had already entered the house and shouted in a loud voice: "If you continue to attack, the brothers below will rebel. Let's change the place tomorrow."

After a while, Xu Hai nodded with a gloomy face, but then a trace of cunning flashed across the corner of his eyes. Perhaps there was still a chance.

...

In Chongde County.

The letter was placed on the table, and everyone read it, and everyone's face was very strange.

The Japanese pirate leader outside proposed a condition that he could withdraw his troops, but he had to hand over the Chongde County teaching in charge Shen Chong.

"They have a grudge?" Lu Bin made the most likely judgment.

"I guess there is a grudge." Li Liangqin smacked his lips and looked at Yu Dayou. Although he was not able to command the battle because of injuries, this decision must be made by Yu Dayou.

Of course there is a grudge. Qian Yuan made such a judgment with a sniff. Let’s not talk about the rest. Xu Hai’s personality should be clearly divided into grudges. He killed Shen Chong and married Wang Cuiqiao as his wife. History has proved the latter one, and the previous one is also likely to be a fact.

But Yu Dayou never said anything. The long-term ups and downs and hardships made him hesitate on such matters.

The discussions began to run towards another road.

Yang Wen's eyes flashed and glanced at Qian Yuan, and began to talk about seeing the teacher Shen go to the brothel the next day after entering the city.

Li Liangqin and Lu Bin were full of indignation, while the young Qi Jimei looked envious.

Tang Shunzhi was very sensitive to the fact that the scholar Songjiang still did not say a word.

"Ask me?" Qian Yuannu said, "It doesn't matter if an old teacher is not acquainted, but if a few things are not secret, it will cause harm."

"It doesn't matter if you give some money, anyway, there is the general of Datong who is in front of you."

Qian Yuan's words made Tang Shunzhi look very ugly, and Qi Jimei, who was standing beside him, couldn't help laughing.

A few years ago, Datong General Qiu Luan bribed Altan to attack Datong, but he took money to attack the capital. This was the Gengxu Rebellion that made Emperor Jiajing lose all his face. After that, Qiu Luan was also named the General of Pinglu.

"But send a teacher out... Once it is leaked, from General Yu to this mere scholar, you have to live with a bad reputation for your whole life." Qian Yuan shook his head, "No."

Tang Shunzhi turned his head to look at the wall. In his philosophy, no matter what it is, he must not compromise... But from Qian Yuan's tone, if the Japanese pirates didn't want a teacher, they would change to a yamen runner, a captain, or a sum of money, he would agree without hesitation.

This is a person who has no bottom line in his heart... Tang Shunzhi made such a judgment.

"Although the Japanese pirates attacked the city for six consecutive days, the city is still stable, and the soldiers are not losing much, so the township can help." Qian Yuan clapped his hands and said, "Everyone goes back and rest, don't bother General Yu. By the way, those who are vigilant are all calm."

Qian Yuan had already arranged the order of the guards every night, and everyone just needed to follow the order on the table.

Everyone went out, but Qian Yuan sat there firmly and never got up.

Turning his head and looking at Tang Shunzhi, who didn't leave, Qian Yuan picked up the letter and shook his head, "General Pinghai... Hehe, if he really has a grudge against Shen Zhiyu to attack Chongde County, and as long as Shen Zhiyu, he should have sent this letter before the first day of siege."

Yu Dayou squinted his eyes and nodded slowly.

"If you can't win or defeat, can't you still expect us to surrender, a poor teacher, but you can also be considered a civil servant?" Qian Yuan talked happily, "Does he expect General Yu, you will send a civil servant?"

"As long as your mind is not broken, you should know that this is impossible."

"It's better to die in battle than to send it out, right?"

Qian Yuan raised the teapot and poured a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "So, this letter is very strange, very strange, the weirdest thing is that the time for delivery is wrong."

"For six consecutive days of siege, this Pinghai General should have been under a lot of pressure. You should know that the Japanese pirates came for money, and it was not his strength or his preference to conquer the city and land."

"They should be withdrawing soon."

"But at this time, this letter was sent."

Qian Yuan turned the teacup in his hand and smiled: "Or, he just made a few words of intimidation, but he could accurately grasp the opportunity and defeat General Yu in Pinghu County. Such a person should not be a bluffing fool."

After looking at Yu Dayou's face, Tang Shunzhi snorted, "Hetan Gong was ranked first in the five leaders of Yingtianfu's rural examinations with "Rites", but later generations are so ungrateful!"

Qian Yuan laughed a few times, quickly took a tea cup and poured a cup of tea for Tang Shunzhi. The latter's mouth twitched... Am I saying that you didn't pour me tea?

The atmosphere in the room seemed to be a little lighter. Yu Dayou forced a smile and then said in a deep voice: "Or, this General Pinghai... wants to attack the city at night."

Tang Shunzhi was surprised and turned to look at Yu Dayou, then looked at Qian Yuan, who seemed not surprised at all, "Night attack? Isn't it possible? Japanese pirates never attacked the city at night these six days."

According to legend, night attacks seem to be the magic weapon to win, but in fact, on ancient battlefields, night attacks were very dangerous and the chances of success were not high. In most cases, night attacks were just melee between the two sides. After fighting for a night, the side that took the initiative to attack might die.

One of the key factors is that ancient people, especially the lower class soldiers, had a high proportion of night blindness. If there was no moonlight, they would often not see anything.

But there is a group of people on the southeast coast who have a very small chance of getting night blindness, and they are Japanese pirates.

Japanese pirates wandered on the sea all year round and often used fish as food. Fish can supplement the human body's vitamin A. Most of them can see things at night. In theory, there is a possibility of stealing the city.

"Can you avoid blindfolding by eating fish all year round?" Tang Shunzhi asked in a slight question: "Just this just?"

"There are also those Japanese who have not appeared." Qian Yuan said calmly: "The six consecutive days of siege in the city proved his determination. If he did not use his trump card, how can he be willing to stop?"

"Of course, the most important thing is the time when this letter is delivered."

A moment later, Tang Shunzhi was convinced, and Qian Yuan called Yang Wen and Wang Yi who were waiting outside, and asked someone to call Lu Bin, Li Liangqin, Wang and others.
