The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 878 Chapter 860 Seven: The Mountain Rain Is Coming

After Duan Wuji and Tieniu inspected their team, they gave Cao Qiubao and a few small bosses orders to work, and then returned to the magistrate's yamen.

The news that those foreigners who moved from the south were going to attack Nanning Mansion had already spread in the city, and the people in the city became nervous.

Pedestrians on the entire street became rarer, and groups of soldiers armed with weapons also increased.

Almost all personnel are hoarding supplies, preparing for the worst for this war!

After the two returned to the magistrate's houya, they drank tea and thought about the upcoming war.

The time is not too long, and the prefect Zhu came back after setting up the work. This old Zhu also knows that the heavy responsibility of defending the city is on his shoulders. If the city is lost, his result will be very tragic. Zhu Zhifu also knew it well.

After Zhu Zhifu arranged all the work, he immediately asked Duan Wuji and the others to come.

When Duan Wuji and the others saw the prefect Zhu approaching, they hurriedly motioned him to sit down quickly.

"Prefect Zhu, sit down quickly, let's discuss how to defend against the enemy.

If we don't make full deployment before the war, how can we win this war! "

After hearing this, Zhu Zhifu sat down quickly.

"You two imperial envoys, I am a civil servant. I don't have much experience in deploying troops for war. The deployment of defenses and wars is entirely up to the two imperial envoys. I will execute whatever your lords arrange.

Although my old Zhu has no real skills, he still has the determination to live and die with this city. "

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"I thought about it just now. I have formulated two final plans for the battle. Both plans are feasible. However, the two plans have their own disadvantages. Lord Zhifu, let's see which one is better!"

"What kind of plan, you can tell me, let me analyze and analyze which set of plans."

"This is what I think. The first plan is like this. The first plan is that you lead more than 3000 soldiers to defend the city alone, and I will lead my [-] brothers and your [-] brothers out of the city secretly. .

Didn't they attack our Nanning City, then let's go straight to their lair.

After we have smashed their lair, we will come back to deal with them. We should cooperate with each other inside and out, and wipe them out of Nanning City in one fell swoop.

The advantage of this method is that it is faster to destroy the enemy, and the method is more feasible. The disadvantage is that you guard this Nanning mansion alone, and you dare not say it if you can defend it or not.

Once we smashed their lair, and they also took down our Nanning City, to be honest, it would be a tie at best.

The second plan is that I will guard this Nanning Mansion, you can help me, and the two of us will guard this Nanyang City together.

We still send three or four thousand elite personnel to smash their lair. If I defend the city, let my brother Tieniu lead the team to attack.

When the time comes, he will be the chief general, and Cao Qiubao will be his deputy.

However, if the two of them led the troops to carry out a sneak attack, their fighting time might be longer.

Although Cao Qiubao also knows some martial arts skills, how can he compare with me in terms of his literary skills and martial arts strategy! "

After hearing this, Zhu Zhifu thought for a while and said: "You two imperial envoys, I think this second plan is feasible. Although it will take some time, this plan seems to be safer!

Isn't it just a few more days of delay, we have plenty of time, as long as we can win the final victory, that's fine! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Master Zhifu, since you agree with this second plan, then let's implement it according to the second plan!
Brother Tieniu, call me that Cao Qiubao right now, I have something to tell him. "

The iron bull heard this, turned around and went out.

Duan Wuji said to the prefect Zhu: "Old Zhu! You should also gather the soldiers we recruited. Since we have already formulated a battle plan, why don't we take action in advance!
Don't we have to let the enemy soldiers approach the city, can't we take action again!

You gather our troops now, let's take action now!

I don't think it's necessary to wait until tomorrow for this job. If the enemy surrounds the city tomorrow, it will be troublesome for us to take any further action.

You call up the army immediately, let's take action immediately before the enemy comes over!

I assign tasks to these soldiers, let them mentally prepare for this war, let them know how to fight, this is also very important! "

After hearing that, Zhifu Zhu ran out without saying a word. Now that the situation is urgent, he really can't afford to waste his time!

Not too long later, Tie Niu led Cao Qiubao back first.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, you can follow my Brother Tieniu to go out in a while, this time you will be his second-in-command, and you can follow his orders in all combat operations.

Brother Cao, I know that you are also good at martial arts, but I am afraid that you are not strong enough when it comes to fighting!

Let me tell you that the enemy does not distinguish between men, women, young and old. Once they become enemies with our court, then they are all our enemies.

We don't need to be merciful to the enemy, but if you really want to be merciful, you can keep those girls from other races.

Those boys from other races, there is no need for them to stay, those people must be dealt with completely.

Brother Cao, did you hear this clearly? "

"Brother, I understand what you mean, but why are you doing this?

Are you not afraid that the court will blame you for killing so many people?

If you massacre like you said, wouldn't that completely eradicate the whole nation? "

Duan Wuji grinned when he heard this.

"I'm not afraid of being gossip, it's better to solve ethnic conflicts once and for all!

If you are soft-hearted and leave too many enemies behind, you have suppressed them this time, and when their children grow up in the future, they will seek revenge from you.

That's called wild fire that burns endlessly, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates!

Only by cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots can it be done once and for all!

At that time, all the boys in their clan will be dead, and their hatred will disappear.

Remember, even the boy who is breastfeeding in your arms, you will have to throw him to death when the time comes.

We must do things cleanly and neatly, and we must not be sloppy!

Brother Cao, did you hear this clearly? If you dare to give me a discount, don't say that I can't spare you when the time comes! "

Cao Qiubao nodded.

"Brother, since you have said so, it is enough for me, Lao Cao, to carry out the order.

It is said that once you become famous, your bones will dry up. It seems that this statement is true at all!

As this general, who wouldn't be ruthless!

If you don't have a lot of ruthlessness, you really can't accomplish great things!

However, after this battle, those of us left behind the notoriety of being butchers, I am afraid there is no way to avoid it. "

Duan Wuji laughed out loud.

"Brother, if we buddies leave behind that eternal infamy, it can only show that your massacre is not thorough enough!

If we kill them all, who will dare to call us butchers then?

At that time, we will leave that heavy stroke in history, that is, to eliminate the aliens and return Nanning to Taiping!

Brother Cao, you should know that the history books are written by the victors, and those dead people don't know how to write history books. "

Tie Niu laughed out loud.

"Brother Cao, you can just listen to me when the time comes, as generals, we are just fighting the enemy for Yasukuni!

We must never pity the enemy. When the enemy kills our people, they will not be soft-hearted. When we kill them, why should we be soft-hearted?
Well, I will lead the troops to fight this time, and I, Tien Niu, will take care of everything that happens, so you don't have to have any psychological burden! "

Not too long later, the prefect Zhu also walked in from the outside.

"You two imperial envoys, those soldiers have already assembled, you two go over and have a look.

How we allocate this army, you can figure it out. "

Duan Wuji and Tieniu walked out of the magistrate's yamen, only to see that the soldiers had assembled on the square in front of the government yamen.

These soldiers stood there holding knives and guns, waiting for the imperial envoy to give a lecture!

Duan Wuji glanced at the soldiers and said loudly: "Brothers, you are all the children of the Han family in our dynasty, most of us are the children of the peasant family around here, maybe you don't want to be soldiers and fight!

However, there is no other way. Those foreigners want to attack my Nanning Mansion, and they want to kill my people. As the children of the Han family, can we promise them to do this?

If we take half a step back, our parents, wives and children may all be killed.

We should take up arms and wipe them out completely. Only by letting them disappear in the long river of history can our parents be at peace.

None of those foreigners who are ready to move against us is a good person. Only when we rise up to resist them, will they completely give up their stupid idea!

It's not that we don't love peace, but the enemy doesn't give us a chance to live in peace!

If you are too kind to the enemy, then they will only use their noses, and they will never know their current situation!

Well, that's all I'll say. "

Duan Wuji looked at Tieniu.

"Brother Tieniu, you can choose these soldiers now, you can choose three thousand elite soldiers, and leave the rest to me.

After all, you are going out of the city to kill the enemy. If the soldiers are not strong, how can you do it!
Zhifu Zhu and I led the remaining troops to guard the city, so we have to take care of their strengths and weaknesses! "

The Tie Niu was not polite either, and the Tie Niu carefully selected the soldiers, the three thousand-year-old soldiers, and in a short while the Tie Niu picked out the strong soldiers.

Tie Niu said with a smile: "You people follow me, we will set off overnight after dinner!

With our [-] soldiers fighting outside, it won't take long for this stubborn enemy to be eliminated! "

That Tie Niu took the soldiers he picked out and went back to the barracks. Duan Wuji divided the remaining soldiers into eight small teams, each two small teams guarded a city wall, and the two teams took turns to rest backwards, each responsible for their own duties. Defense zone!

After everything was arranged, Wuji felt a little more at ease in his heart.

Duan Wuji and Zhu Zhifu have discussed it, and the two also take turns to change shifts, and each is responsible for the period of time when they are on duty!
After dinner, Duan Wuji and Zhu Zhifu quietly opened the gate of the west city, and let Tie Niu and the others go out of the city quietly.

After the team left the city, Zhu Zhifu hurriedly ordered people to close the city gates quickly, and ordered people to block several city gates with sandbags.

Not long after these things were done, countless torches were lit outside the city, and the rebels rushed over one after another.

These troops were all holding torches, which made the southern half of the sky red!

This team is constantly gathering here, and more and more people are coming here.

These rebels did not immediately attack the city when they came to the city, but buried pots and cooked food less than a mile away from the city, and began to rest.

When Zhifu Zhu saw the dark rebel army outside the city, he was already terrified!

"I said Imperial Commissioner Duan, look at this dark rebel army, how many people there must be here!

With so many people, do you think we can stand it?

If you can't stand it, you and I will die without a place to die! "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "They won't attack the city tonight, you see they are burying pots and making food now, you should know that they are tired enough after driving all day.

There are quite a few of them, and it is estimated that these people will not be less than 3.

If they want to train such a huge army, they cannot do it in a short time.

It can be seen that they have planned for a long time, and they have long had the heart of rebellion. We need to have a clear understanding of these people.

Taking advantage of the current night, let's prepare well for the defense of the city!

The soldiers only have the bows and arrows in their hands, so how can they do it!After a long time, our bows and arrows have long been used up.

By that time, we will be in real danger.

I guess the enemy will have to wait until after breakfast tomorrow when they attack the city. They haven't prepared the ladders for the siege yet.

It will take some time to prepare these things.

Let's use this time to move all the rolling stones we prepared to the city.

In addition, let's put all those messy bricks in our city on the city wall. When the enemy attacks the city, when we don't have enough arrows, we will smash them down with bricks. "

"Hmm! Your judgment may be correct. Well, then I will tell half of the soldiers to guard against the enemy, and half of them will do the job!"

The prefect Zhu is now acting fast, once he heard what Duan Wuji said, he took action immediately!

Zhu Zhifu immediately ordered the soldiers to carry the equipment for defending the city to the city.

Rolling logs, gray bottles, arrows, bricks, stones, etc. are constantly being transported to the front of the city!

These soldiers are working in turns!I changed from one shift to another when I was tired, and I was so busy until the morning of the next day that I still hadn't finished the intense work.
