"General Bing Tiangong, the arsenal has a total of forty leather armors, ten pairs of double armor, one black light armor, and fifteen short weapons such as swords..."
"General Bing Tiangong, the granary contains a total of 45,000 kilograms of rice..."
After hearing the information from various ministries, Wang Zheng thought for a moment and said:
"There are 2,000 people in the Tianfu camp in the city, leaving 200 people to guard the granary and weapons warehouse. The others go to the four city gates and the city head to replace the people from the Tianzhu camp and the Tiangang tribe."
Then he turned to Wu Niu and others:
"Go and inform Wu Sheng, and bring the Qi Tian Zhuying and Tiangang troops to gather at the county government office in an hour. In addition, tell Goldman Sachs and order him not to let in our folks from outside the city, and to camp at the same place for the time being."
"promise."
After giving the instructions, Wang Zheng led 500 people towards the county government office in an unhurried manner.
Along the way, Wang Zheng and his five hundred soldiers were not in a hurry, but the invisible evil aura still frightened the two residents. All the residents immediately closed the courtyard door tightly. The timid ones huddled in their beds and shivered, while the brave ones also
But I listened uneasily to the noise at the door.
Occasionally, the people on the road at this time were even more panicked, like a group of ants on a hot pot, swaying around helplessly.
Everyone is secretly praying to God and worshiping Buddha. These thieves and bandits must not show their ferocity and kill anyone on sight. If they want to kill, it is best to kill others rather than themselves.
There was really no place to hide and no time to run. When he saw that he collided with the army, he had no choice but to kneel down on the side of the road, lowering his head and not daring to breathe, for fear of being unreasonably angered and causing death.
It wasn't until Wang Zheng and his team passed by without seeing these people that everyone felt a little at ease.
Only then did I have the courage to discuss where this group of thieves came from, who their leader was, and why they were so young.
"It's been a long time since I've been here. I'm a bit unfamiliar with Zhao County."
Looking at the hometown where he grew up, Wang Zheng asked seemingly casually:
"How far is it from the county government office?"
"It's only two streets away." Xu Fang replied respectfully, and then looked at Wang Zheng, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
"What's the matter?"
Catching his expression from the corner of his eye, Wang Zheng asked:
"We don't want to have this kind of pretense between us. There's no harm in speaking out."
Seeing what Wang Zheng said, Xu Fang boldly expressed his doubts.
"General, although we have a sure chance of victory, after all, the county government has not been conquered yet. If our army does not concentrate its forces quickly, and secondly, the march is so slow, there will be some hidden dangers after a long time, right..."
"Do you think I'm too proud and careless?"
Wang Zheng, who was listening attentively, turned his head and asked with a smile.
"The general can see thousands of miles away, but he is humble and worried about the world."
Xu Fang quickly handed over his hands and confessed.
"No, you are right."
Wang Zheng waved his hand and showed approval:
"Being arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat is the mentality a general should have. Xu Fang, I am very happy that you can think of possible hidden dangers when our army has a huge advantage."
"In a war, the outcome cannot be determined until the last minute. If the dominant side is careless and underestimates the enemy, it will often give the enemy a chance to come back."
As he spoke, he looked up at the sky and murmured to himself:
"Especially... in the special era of the Three Kingdoms, when advantageous waves are certain to overturn the situation, it has almost become a basic operation."
Xu Fang heard the emotion in his words, but did not see the complaints in these strange words. His clear eyes suddenly became confused.
Is it because I haven’t read enough books?
Why didn't I understand a word of what the general said?
Seeing his confused look, Wang Zheng laughed dumbly and shook his head to explain:
"What I did was not careless, but deliberate."
Seeing the doubt on Xu Fang's face, Wang Zheng looked at him and suddenly asked:
"Xu Fang, if you were the county magistrate of Zhao County at this time, what would you do if faced with the current situation?"
Xu Fang has never heard of the term empathy, and has never tried it.
But Xu Fang, who had long been accustomed to obeying Wang Zhengyan, instinctively fell into thinking when he heard this.
After walking a certain distance, Xu Fang muttered:
"The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. We cannot fight head-on. We must either look for opportunities to break out, or defend and defend to the death and send a letter asking for help."
"Clear thinking and correct attitude."
Wang Zheng nodded and asked again:
"Now our army is blocked on all four sides, and there is no way from heaven to earth. How do you break through?"
"Then we can only stick to it..."
Xu Fang touched his chin and said again:
"Under the current situation, to defend is to sit back and wait for death. The only chance of survival is to ask for help from the outside. Before the reinforcements arrive, we can only quickly mobilize all current officers and soldiers to block the front as much as possible."
"Then how many officers and soldiers do you think they have now, and how many people do they need to defend the county government in front of our troops until their reinforcements arrive?"
Xu Fang looked at Wang Zheng, remembering his "divine power", and remembering that he, Wu Sheng and others, as well as the Tianzhu Camp Tiangang Army, had blessed this state, and couldn't help but shake his head:
"Even if there are so many people that they occupy every inch of the county government office, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for a day."
Zhao County is not a county or state government, and the defense of the county government itself is not even as good as that of an inner city.
This kind of geographical advantage can only be considered better than nothing when there is a huge gap between individual force and collective force.
"Xu Fang, since you are the county prince at this time, you will not know the true combat power of our army."
Wang Zheng smiled and said: "So in the eyes of this county king." Pointing to himself: "We are no different from the previous Qingzhou Yellow Turbans."
"Under such circumstances, you are the county king. How many people do you think are needed to support the reinforcements?"
Xu Fang thought for a while and said: "No matter how fast the reinforcements are, it will take five or six days. We must persist for this period of time..."
He thought for a while and felt a little unsure: "I'm afraid we need more than 300 people, right?"
"Okay, let's calculate it as three hundred people."
Wang Zheng nodded with a smile: "The number of officers and soldiers is not enough at this time, what will he do?"
"Well... we can only summon all the wealthy families in the city and ask their family soldiers to come and assist."
Xu Fang suddenly realized: "What the general said deliberately is to give the county prince time to gather all these wealthy generals?"
Having said this, he had new doubts:
"But General, these people were originally scattered, wouldn't it be easier for us to defeat them? Why did we gather them instead?"
"You are the one who has read the most among this group of people." Wang Zheng smiled and did not answer: "But if you want to be a real general, you have not read enough books."
Wang Zheng didn't want to tell anyone about his true inner considerations, even Xu Fang under the system.
Although it is easy to defeat the scattered wealthy families one by one, he also loses a reasonable reason to go on a killing spree.
Before Cao's army pressed the border, he had to take precautions. He must kill all the nobles in Zhao County to prevent these people from spreading rumors and colluding with both internal and external forces.
But if any force wants to develop and grow, it must learn from others and be famous in everything, and it cannot be punished without teaching.
If all the gentry were to be exterminated, it would arouse the collective resentment of the gentry as a class at the most inappropriate early stage of development.
I'm afraid that every time they go to a city in the future, they will fight tooth and nail to resist with all their strength.
Wang Zheng glanced at the tallest pavilions in the county with great interest, his eyes flashed brightly, and he said lightly:
"If you want to suppress something, you must strengthen it. If you want to weaken it, you must strengthen it."
