On the evening of February [-]th, in the camp of the Runing Army.

"You will lead the engineering regiment to guard the camp tomorrow, and you must not let the tartars attack the camp, otherwise you will be the only one to ask questions!" Wu Shigong ordered the engineer regiment commander.

"promise!"

"The rest of the armies need to get ready, the whole army will be dispatched tomorrow to fight the Tartars!"

"promise!"

Wu Shigong secretly sighed in his heart.The great war was approaching, but none of the officers and soldiers who came to help was seen.What is even more distressing is that in order to ensure that there is a fortress to wait for reinforcements after the defeat, and to protect the army's food, grass and supplies, Wu Shigong had to arrange for the engineering corps to stay in the camp.

On the other hand, the Qing army marched lightly, and they even believed that they would not be defeated, so they could devote their entire army to this battle. Therefore, when comparing inside and outside, the gap in numbers between the two sides was even greater.

Wu Shigong calmed down, and then ordered Shumo: "You take a regiment, and then strengthen your six one-pound guns, set off in the middle of the night, and occupy the small hill on the east side of the battlefield. In tomorrow's battle, you must guarantee That hill is not lost, pay attention! This is very important for us to win."

"No! Master!" Shumo quickly nodded in agreement. [

Because it was at a disadvantage in the strangling battle, although the Runing army moved around in every possible way afterwards, it still couldn't take the initiative to choose the battlefield. In the end, the preset battlefield between the two armies was a large open field with no trees in the middle , creeks act as obstacles, so this battlefield is actually beneficial to the Qing army with more cavalry.

In order to reverse the disadvantage, Wu Shigong asked Shumo to occupy the small hill on the east side of the battlefield first, and use this as a nail to prevent the Qing army from moving smoothly on the east side of the battlefield.In this case, the Runing army only needs to concentrate on the battle with the Qing army on the west side and the middle road, so as to make their own disadvantages smaller.

Wu Shigong then said to Li Lu: "Brother Li! Tomorrow your people will guard the Chinese army with my personal troops."

Li Lu nodded, then hesitated for a moment.Said: "Brother-in-law! I know that you take care of me. You didn't send my people out to investigate a few days ago, and now you let my people stay behind. But since I'm with you, you can use it when it's time to use it." , don't be shy!"

Wu Shigong smiled slightly at Li Lu, and said, "You're welcome! Tomorrow's battle will be a bit tricky, and the final blow may decide the outcome. I just need to trouble Brother Li."

In fact, the reason why Wu Shigong arranged Li Lu's troops in this way was to take care of him.But the main reason is: Tomorrow the Ru Ning Army will fight mainly with its own troops, and Wu Shigong is afraid that he will "insert" into Li Lu's troops.Cause a flaw in the coordination.

Of course Li Lu understood Wu Shigong's kindness, he quickly said: "Then wait for my brother-in-law's order, don't worry, I will never embarrass my brother-in-law. I..."

"I know! I know!" Wu Shigong interrupted Li Lu with a smile, "You are a man from the capital!" There was a burst of laughter immediately in the big tent.

Wu Shigong made the final arrangements: "Tomorrow will be the battle. He Fei will be in command, and Chu Ge will be his deputy. You all need to use your life. Show off the might of our Runing Army! All victories!"

"Wan Sheng!" Everyone in the tent also shouted loudly.

This battle started when Shumo set off in the middle of the night.

It wasn't until the cock crowed that the regiment climbed up the hill sweating profusely.Fortunately, the Qing army did not notice the importance of this hill, and did not send troops to seize it. Shumo was relieved, so he immediately ordered the soldiers to dig the ground quickly.Build simple fortifications to prepare for the battle after dawn.

But after a while, the officers responsible for the construction of fortifications reported one after another: the mountain was only covered with a thin layer of soil, and there were hard rocks underneath.And because the soil is shallow, there are only shrubs and weeds growing on the top of the mountain, and there are no trees, so there is no way to build fortifications, so they hope that Shumo, a defense expert, will come up with an idea.

Shumo was so angry that he almost wanted to scold his mother: These officers think they are gods?A wall of earth can be raised flat with the movement of a finger?It's hard for a clever woman to cook rice, do you understand?What can I do?

But Shumo saw the soldiers under him looking at him eagerly, with some admiration in their eyes, but Shumo could only swallow the three words "no way" into his stomach. [

That is to say, Shumo's reputation of being good at defending is too strong, and those soldiers put their hopes on Shumo. At this time, Shumo feels that he has a great responsibility and responsibility!This is responsibility!

So Shumo felt his body tremble slightly.Don't they know?I am the most afraid of death!Don't they all know?The reason why I hang out with the young master is because I want to live a life of debauchery in the future!Who the hell is going to take responsibility?But look at the situation in front of you?

Shumo looked around at the soldiers. He gritted his teeth, jumped onto a big rock, and started his speech: "Brothers! You keep asking me what is the best defense? How can I build the strongest city and the most powerful pass?" , my book master will tell you today."

"Actually, a city wall made of concrete or stones is not the strongest. Even a city wall made of iron can't stop the bombardment of artillery. So what is the strongest city wall made of? Only people! Yes! It's people! A tiger general, leading an army of tigers and wolves, this is Xiongguan! This is the city wall! It can stop any enemy's attack."

……

After some speeches, the minds of these soldiers miraculously stabilized.Under the command of the officers, the soldiers set up artillery positions, took turns to rest and recover their strength, and were ready to defend the hill with their flesh and blood after the war broke out.

In the early morning of February [-]th.

Zhao Gan rode a horse and led his team to inspect the camp.I saw the soldiers of the Runing Army lined up in a long line in an orderly manner. After taking food from the cooks one by one, they went to the side to have breakfast.

In addition to breakfast, the cooking soldiers also gave each soldier two big buns with meat.Today's battle may last for a whole day, and there may be no time for lunch at all. These two meat clips are just for the soldiers to feed their hunger.

"Dare! Dare!"

Zhao Gan suddenly heard someone calling himself.So he immediately looked in the direction of the shout, and saw Cheng Niu waving to him at a glance.

"Brother Cheng!" Because of the mission, Zhao Gan couldn't jump off the horse to chat, so he rode on the horse and waved to Cheng Niu.

"Ganzi! Not bad! You're already in the squad! After you're released, you'll at least be a battalion deputy!" Although Zhao Gan didn't get off his horse, it didn't stop Cheng Niu from chatting with him.

Because of his meritorious service in saving Wu Shigong, Zhao Gan was promoted by Wu Shigong himself to be the small captain of the personal army. If he is sent down, he will indeed start as a battalion deputy, so Cheng Niu is quite envious. (to be continued..)
