Chapter 117 in full swing

The seat in the middle of the lobby is still empty. A group of civil and military officials have arrived and are preparing to be divided into two classes. Wu Wending, a magistrate in military uniform, hurried in. Facing these unfamiliar officials, he suddenly didn't know where to stand.

Xing Xun, the governor of Ganzhou, joked, "Lord Wu, you should stand over there. You are obviously a general!"

Ji Yu, the governor of Nan'an, said, "That's right, that's right. Wendong Wuxi, Lord Wu is armored and should stand on the side of the general.

Yang Zhang, deputy military and military governor of Jiangxi, said, "Lord Wu, you are welcome to join the ranks of generals. It's just that you have changed from the fourth grade of civil servants to the fourth grade of military officers, and the salary will also be reduced.

A voice came: "Wu Zhifu is both civil and military, and he can be competent on any side!" Everyone looked up and saw that Wang Shouren came in through the side door, followed by the middle officer Lei Ji and the staff Long Guang and Xiao Yu.

Wang Shouren sat down behind the case and said with a smile, "Did the court gave me the right to command, so I broke the boundaries and grades of civil and military officials. Anyone who can fight and govern affairs will be transferred to the account this time. Have Tang Chun, the governor of Tingzhou, arrived yet?

"The subordinate is there!" Tang Chun, who had a wrinkled face, stood up.

"Has Shufu, the prime of Nankang County, arrived yet?"

"I'm humble!" A thin official stood up.

"Has Ganzhou guard commander Gao Wen arrived?"

"The end!"

"Has Wu Wen, the governor of Ji'an, arrived yet?"

"The end!" Wu Wending's words made the officials laugh.

Wang Shouren also smiled: "It seems that Lord Wu really has martial arts. All right, I will accept you as a general. Everyone, come to discuss today, you must have guessed what we are going to do next. If you have any ideas and ideas, you might as well talk about them now.

Xing Xun, the governor of Ganzhou, said, "Your Excellency, we must fight against the thieves of Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang. Since he became governor, he began to take a defensive against the thieves in southern Jiangxi and first suppress the thieves in western Fujian and northern Guangdong. Now the situation is very clear. What the adult soldiers mean must be the giant mountain thieves in southern Jiangxi.

Wang Shouren nodded slightly.

Xu Qing, the commander of Jiangxi Province, said: "The governor, the last general and others have moved the troops to the designated position according to your instructions. However, so far, the last general can't see what the governor is in. The three giants of Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang are each other's horns, and there are more than a dozen small cottages below as echoes, adding up to a total of 40 or 50 cottages. In the face of so many scattered bandit nests, the last general really doesn't know how to eliminate them?

Wang Shouren said, "Do you know how many people the bandits still have now?"

Xing Xun, the magistrate, said, "After half a year of our persuasion and attack tactics, the bandits in these three places used to be less than 10,000, but now they have run a lot. It is estimated that there are only about 6,000 or 7,000, but they are all stubborn bandits."

Wang Shouren said, "Yes. In the face of bandits scattered in such villages, I have also thought about how to eliminate them. The bandits have three central stockades, namely Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang, which are horns with each other. In addition, many small village plugs are used as wings. The terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. At first glance, they don't know how to clean them up like a plate of scattered sand. However, the thieves arrayed like this, but forgot the truth of attacking and defending..."

The impatient garrison commander Gao Wen came forward and said, "What good way does the governor have to defeat the enemy?"

Wang Shouren said, "Learn to focus on everything. Forty-50 bandit nests, the only three big villages that play a command role are Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang. As long as these three villages are broken, other villages will not have to take much effort and will even fall without a fight.

Jiawen asked, "What if other stockades come to reinforce?"

Wang Shouren said, "This is why I have repeatedly sent people to the hinterland of the bandit's nest for reconnaissance in the past six months. Now, we are very familiar with the terrain around Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang. If we attack and the bandits defend, then the terrain will be beneficial to them; if the bandits reinforce and we defend, then the terrain will be beneficial to us. Therefore, it should be no problem for us to attack with superior forces and then separate some people to stop the enemy's reinforcements.

Yu En, the commander who was promoted and used by Wang Shouren, was inspired and stood up and said, "Captain, according to the general's foolish opinion, your enemy seems to send multiple troops into the hinterland of the thief's nest, separate the thieves' nests, and then first capture the main big cottages, and then solve those small cottages. I don't know?"

Wang Shouren nodded and said, "General Yu is really smart, and this is exactly the governor's plan. This time, we gathered 12,000 troops, all of which were troops and soldiers drawn from various prefectures, counties, guards and stations, with a total of 11 routes. Its advantage is that it has been fighting with bandits for nearly a year and has considerable experience; its disadvantage is that they do not belong to each other, and they may not be able to fight well together. Therefore, the governor did not transfer them all to Ganzhou City, but quietly stationed at the best attack position away from the bandit's nest, waiting for the governor's order to directly insert them into the enemy's abdominal belt. The governor has secretly prepared dozens of guides. As soon as the general order is issued, the generals will take their own guides to their troops and launch an attack on Xie, Zhong, Lan and other departments according to the plan. The simultaneous attack of the 11th Road will inevitably make the bandits overwhelmed, let alone implement strong mutual support.

Yang Zhang, the deputy envoy of Jiangxi Military Reserve, suddenly realized and said, "Captain, you have transferred our troops here these days. It turns out that you are secretly preparing troops!"

Wang Shouren said: "A good fighter can promote his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, and mobilize the enemy without being mobilized by the enemy. After nearly a year of suppressing bandits, you are already old subordinates of the governor and are easy to command, so the governor may come up with this eleven-way strategy to break the enemy at the same time.

Tang Chun, the governor of Tingzhou, Fujian Province, said, "The governor of Wang is better than thousands of miles away. He really has the demeanor of an ancient famous general!"

Wang Shouren said calmly, "No matter how good the strategy is, there must be people who can execute him. This is the reason why I transferred the Tang magistrate and your 1,200 local soldiers who are good at mountain climbing from Fujian a month ago. Now you should understand."

Tang Chun said with a smile, "I said how Governor Wang transferred our native soldiers from Tingzhou to Ganzhou, and the lid of the pot was finally opened. General Jiawen, Wu Zhifu, and Shu Xiancheng, we are all chess pieces on Wang Dudu's chessboard. Everyone couldn't help laughing.

Wang Shouren turned around and said, "Mr. Long, Master Xiao, please expand the map; Lei Zhongjun, please read the general order."

Long Guang and Xiao Yu personally unfolded a large map on the lobby. At a glance, the generals didn't expect that the terrain around Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang was so clearly displayed in front of them, and they whispered to each other for a moment and were quite excited.

Lei Ji unfolded the notice in his hand and read it aloud: "Yang Zhang, deputy envoy of Jiangxi military equipment, listens to the order!"

"The end!"

"I ordered you to lead thousands of households, Gao Rui, Chen Wei, Zhu Xian and the three people in the north, and insert them into the deep hinterland of Hengshui, aiming to take down the Hengshui Village." Get the order!"

"Jiangxi commanded Xu Qing to listen to the order!" The last general!"

"I ordered you to command thousands of people, Song Yu, Lu Jing and the two people in the west, and insert them into the deep hinterland of Zuoxi, aiming to take Zuoxi Dazhai." Get the order!"

"Jiangxi garrison commander Ka Wen listens to the order!" The last general!"

"I ordered you to command thousands of households, Tang Tinghua, Huang Shou, Ma Defeng and the three people in the south, insert them into the deep hinterland of Tonggang, aiming to take down Tonggang Dazhai." Get the order!"

"Jian magistrate Wu Wending, Tingzhou magistrate Tang Chun, and Nankang County Cheng Shufu listened to the order!"

"The lower official (bei zhi) is there!"

"Ask the three of you to lead the local soldiers and go straight into the hinterland of Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang in a guerrilla way to take over all kinds of people and horses. If you can't go, you can take over the duties of which way. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

Wang Shouren said: "In order to ensure the victory of this battle, the governor has dismantled the six battalions of the standard battalion, and four battalions are guarded on the east, south, west and north road passes respectively. The brigade of the thieves can't escape. With the remaining two battalions, the governor will personally lead them to the front of the enemy's battle. One is to supervise the battle, and the other is to take over the people from all walks of life. I hope that all the generals and adults will follow the previous heroic wind of suppressing the bandits and win the key battle against the bandits in southern Jiangxi!"

"The last general (bei zhi) must do his best and live up to the expectations of the adults!"

Wang Shouren added: "Dear gentlemen, in the past six months, the governor has secretly sent people to draw maps and engrave several copies of the terrain around Hengshui, Zuoxi and Tonggang. The situation should be roughly good. After the meeting, please go to Longguang and Mr. Xiao Yu to collect them. There are detailed signs of the routes you should take and the villages you want to attack. After the meeting, you will handle business in Ganzhou City as usual. After dinner, he quietly left the city and sneaked to the headquarters station until the moment before the attack.

Xing Xun, the governor of Ganzhou, said, "Lord Wang, you are simply a master of three or four moves. At the beginning, you first conquered western Fujian and then northern Guangdong. I thought you had forgotten the suppression of bandits in southern Jiangxi. It turned out that you had already sent someone to draw the map. As the governor of Ganzhou, he knows nothing about this. He is really admirable and ashamed.

Wang Shouren said modestly, "This is nothing, but Zhou Yi said: 'If a few things are not secret, it will be harmful', so there is no need to disturb your parents. Next, the last matter will be announced by Lei Zhongjun--

All the civil and military officials were silent and pricked up their ears.

Lei Ji said: "The official attack will be set at the beginning of the morning of October 12, and all walks of life will launch an attack at the same time. Do you understand?"

"I understand." The officials answered in unison.
