Chapter 27 Enemy Situation
But did this proposal really change history? Historically, it was a year later that Gao Yingxiang's Huimen Uprising, the Thirty-sixth Battalion Huimeng, and the Chuang King Li Zicheng came into existence. Now it seems that it may be
Without my own control, I contributed to the advancement of the late Ming uprising. I don’t know whether this historical change is good or bad for me. Who cares, it’s fair to save someone I’m kind to from prison, at least to say the least.
I don't owe anyone anything.
Lu Shi had no choice but to turn his attention to Zhao Dahai.
Zhao Dahai is an official and knows more about the situation in the county. He may be more convincing when he sees Lu Shi looking at him and knows what he should say.
Zhao Dahai, who was sitting aside, was very excited. Listening to Lu Shi and others' plans, he thought that unknowingly, he had participated in such a grand event, which could be regarded as a publicity in front of the Shangguan who had been calling him back and forth.
, now they are starting to fantasize about taking over the county town, how they will humiliate them, and see them trembling in front of their feet begging for their lives.
Seeing Lu Shiwen at this time, he stood up and said: "Masters, as far as I know, Mizhi Qianhu ordered 1,200 soldiers, but now it is not as good as the founding of the country, there are only 400 and nearly 500 soldiers. These are all
Is a bachelor or
There is no way to escape. We can only live in the military camp and earn some salary occasionally. I don't think much has changed in the past year. But if we exclude the old, weak, sick and disabled, there are probably some who can still fight with swords and guns.
Two hundred is close."
"How is the military equipment of Qianhusuo?" Lu Shi asked immediately.
"Although most of the offensive and defensive equipment were stolen and sold or were in disrepair and were in short supply, there were still more than a dozen elm guns, swords and guns, and there were nearly a hundred bows and no less than ten arrow clusters.
Wan." These are not secrets, Zhao Dahai knows them very well.
Hearing this, Bu Gui Mu and others were already very surprised. It is really rare for the Ming Dynasty army to have such equipment. Those 100,000 arrow clusters are a terrifying number.
But I heard Lu Shi ask again: "If the matter is urgent, and the county magistrates from thousands of households urgently summon powerful servants from all over the country to protect the courtyard, how many can be summoned?"
Zhao Dahai said without thinking: "Now there are refugees everywhere and poles are everywhere. Landlords from all over the country have formed strongholds to protect themselves. Those middle-class or small landowners will hide in the county with their families after the autumn harvest. If there is an emergency,
Those big guys hiding in the county town
In order to protect themselves, Hu Haoqiang will spare no effort to recruit servants to help defend the city, which can probably recruit nearly a thousand people." Zhao Dahai now unconsciously regarded himself as a member of the attackers, saying
I'm a little shocked here.
"Then how does the combat power of the guards at the guardhouse compare to the soldiers at the guardhouse?"
"The soldiers in the guards are incomparable." Zhao Dahai answered honestly.
"If we come to attack, according to the regulations, how much can Mizhi sign?"
"Mizhi City has a population of 20,000, and each household has more than 4,000 people. Excluding the large gentry, there is no need to sign a small number. With one small number per household, you can sign a small number of 3,000." Zhao Dahai felt sweat on his forehead.
"What's the combat power of the signee?"
"Although we can't fight in the field, we can defend the city with strong bows, crossbows and tall walls." Zhao Dahai's face also turned pale.
Lu Shi turned around and faced everyone and said, "Not counting reinforcements, Mi Zhi can get nearly 4,000 soldiers, of which there are more than 2,000 combatable soldiers. And what about us?"
Seeing that everyone's faces were ashen, Lu Shi said: "We only have 30,000 people, and what is the combat effectiveness of our allies?" Lu Shi leaned back and asked with disdain on his face.
In fact, just by looking at the situation here in Tianxing, you can see the whole story.
How can these people be fought? They are basically refugee camps. Most of the people and their families who usually have nothing to do are all in ragged clothes and have yellow faces and skinny muscles. They can only survive on two bowls of gruel a day, even if they take a few steps.
Out of breath, not to mention incompetent with weapons and weapons, and with no training at all, how could they climb the city to fight against the officers and soldiers who had access to the terrain above the high city and had sophisticated offensive and defensive equipment?
"To be honest, sir, in fact, there are only 30,000 people. Most of them are men, women, old and young. The real young and strong ones are like thousands of people. The 30,000 people who are actually equipped with swords, guns and some strength are only two.
Three thousand would be pretty good." Bu Guan Ni was embarrassed to say it, but Guo Tianxing was honest and straightforward.
"Where are the siege engines?"
"Apart from the few elm guns and crude hunter's bows and arrows that old man Bu Gui Mu has, the only thing we can do is build a ladder to climb the city." Guo Tianxing said bitterly.
In fact, this is the case in my own village. The hundreds of hunting bows that cannot be compared with the military bows are cherished extremely and cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary. The arrows are even more pitiful. If my husband had not given me the long bow to make,
The method is even less confident.
All attacks depend on human life. Thinking that countless of my brothers and sisters will die tragically in the city, I can't help but feel sad. But is there any way, so that some people can plunder and eat enough to survive this difficult winter?
Some people must sacrifice their lives in exchange. This is an unavoidable reality.
"So, the first thing we have to do is to seize the time to gather manpower. We must have real soldiers three times more than the enemy. This is very important. Only in this way can we ensure that everyone can attack successfully." Lu Shi straightened up and said firmly.
Bu Guanni nodded in agreement: "Without this number, we have little chance of winning."
"Then, the Master of Tianxing did not hide his secrets, so he told everyone how to make this long bow. Everyone worked hard day and night to make it. At the same time, they also mobilized the young and old to make the matching arrows. This is the guarantee for our victory.
"
"This longbow was taught to me by my husband, how dare I keep it secret? Don't worry, sir." Guo Tianxing said magnanimously.
In fact, this longbow is easy to make and everyone can understand it at a glance. There is no need to hide anything, why not just be a favor?
Bu Guanni and the other two were overjoyed when they heard this. With a sharp weapon in hand, they had more capital to win. Who wouldn't be happy?
"Third, we must seize the time. Even if we can't take things by surprise, we can't give the government enough time to prepare. Even if the government gets the time, we can't give them time to train the signings and servants. Even if they can rush
I have been busy training to sign Ding Xiangyong, and I must not let them go to Yan'an or Yulin to apply for equipment replenishment." This series of urgent questions, when
At this time, everyone's intention of underestimating the enemy was dispelled. Bu Guanni suddenly stood up and said: "Thanks to Mr.'s teachings, we realized that this army is dangerous and dangerous. Only then did we realize that our original fight and killing was just a joke. If we want to succeed, we need Mr.
With such a talented person in charge, I will not bother you here, and I will rush to a few familiar villagers to convince them to help. Anyway, there are a lot of supplies in the county, so it is not bad for them to share more."
Turning to Gai Jingtian and Yihu, he said: "You two don't be idle, run around with me immediately. We must recruit an army of 50,000 within three days, of which there must be 10,000."
The soldiers of the war are within, and victory or defeat depends on this. When you go forward, you will definitely tell me
Tell them that if we win, it will be a comfortable and good winter. If we lose, then everyone will die of cold and hunger together. Whether to participate or not is a matter of thought. After this victory, we will be united in the same spirit from now on.
Watch and help each other." His words showed the spirit of the leader of the alliance.
Gai Jingtian and Yihu also stood up solemnly and said loudly: "Respecting the order of the leader of the alliance, I will go down the mountain to contact you soon."
Bu Guanni once again surrendered to Lu Shi and said: "The offense and defense of Zhangjiabao lies with Mr. Guo Tianxing brothers. I'm waiting for you to take the money and food Zhangjiabao has collected for everyone. Please do everything."
The pole is like this, just do it when you say it, and never be sloppy.
He didn't hold back even if he passed the stars, and sent everyone off the mountain with great strides.
Back in the cottage hall, Lu Shi looked at Guo Tianxing and said with a smile: "But it was me who made the big boss lose the idea of being an alliance leader, and also made the big boss lose the chance to dominate the world. Is it true that the big boss is still worried about me?
?”
Guo Tianxing is a straightforward and rough man, and he did not hide anything at the moment: "Sir, you originally initiated this matter. It doesn't matter whether I am the leader of the alliance or not, but I wanted to take the position with you, but you gave up this opportunity for nothing."
Lu Shi was very moved, and he smiled and said: "The leader is over-minded. I didn't have this idea at first, nor did I have this ambition, but in fact, I don't want you to be the leader of the alliance, but the key point is
If you want me to tell you, this will save the brothers from getting into trouble."
"I am a rough person. I am just struggling to survive with my fellow villagers in these troubled times, and I don't have any ideas. But today I saw that my husband is a great talent, and I know that having him here can help us live longer, so I want to
Sir, this is someone's sincere words
." Lu Shi arrived again and felt warm in his heart. It is really rare for a brother who has just met him to think about himself. But things are not as simple as his upright and rough brother imagined. He immediately said: "The boss of the family.
."
"Don't call me that. This is your distrust of me. Please call me by my first name."
Lu Shi was helpless. This could be regarded as a kind of trust, and he said without any pretense at the moment, "Actually, I don't want you to be the leader of the alliance, but I sincerely do it for your brother's benefit."
Zhao Dahai didn't know what was going on and said: "People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. How can you give up this opportunity?"
Lu Shi smiled and said: "Brother is still in the officialdom, he just wants to climb up. That is the officialdom, but this alliance leader is different from the officialdom. Let me analyze it with you."
"I would like to hear the details." Zhao Haiyu crossed the sky and solemnly bowed to Lu Shi and asked for advice.
