Chapter 156 Each Break
Xiao Tianjian stood up, walked to the wall on the side of the Juyi Hall, reached out to pick up a candlestick on the table, raised it up and shone on a topographic map of the Yangcheng area hanging on the wall, and began to look carefully. Tietou quickly stepped forward to take over the candlestick in Xiao Tianjian's hand and helped him lift it up to illuminate the map.
After a while, Xiao Tianjian turned around and returned to the back of the table and said to everyone, "Feng Gouzi is right. It seems that the officers and soldiers in the direction of Qinshui are likely to be the first to do it! But that's good. It's just so that we can give them a break!
At present, I don't think there will be any problem in the west. Jiang Cheng is stationed at Qiaojiazhuang. The officers and soldiers can't avoid Qiaojiazhuang. With Jiang Cheng's troops, they can completely prevent the officers and soldiers from entering our territory from here, so there is no need to worry too much about them. If you want to be more stable, pass the order to Jiang. Cheng, let him organize the local mountain hunters and help him guard this place!
As for Zhao Er Lv, although Beiliu Village is not suitable for guarding, there is a Qin River behind him, which is passed on Zhao Er Lv, so that he can keep an eye on the movements of the officers and soldiers in the direction of Zezhou. Once a large number of officers and soldiers in the direction of Zezhou invade, I did not lead my troops to rush to him in time, so that he can avoid the truth. First give up Beiliu Village and retreat to Qin. In the area around the river, give me the opportunity to beat the officers and soldiers, but the requirement is that the officers and soldiers must not cross the Qinhe River. If the officers and soldiers cross the Qinhe River, tell him, and directly cut off his head and bring them to see me!
Then the rest is the officers and soldiers of Qinshui County, Mr. Fu!"
Fu Deming was listening to Xiao Tianjian explain his deployment. Suddenly, he heard Xiao Tianjian calling him, so he immediately stood up and hugged his fist and replied, "I'm in a humble position!" Please ask the general to order!"
Xiao Tianjian said to Deming, "I'm afraid Mr. Fu will be busy for a while during this period of time!" The summer harvest is approaching, and I'm afraid that the grain on many plots is almost ripe. During this period, you have to go down to all townships and villages and urge the people to grab the ripe grain as soon as possible. In addition, a small number of capable soldiers are drawn from the township soldiers to Hexi Village to meet me and listen to my dispatch!
If there is a labor shortage in the families of the township soldiers who were transferred this time, then the local security chief will arrange people to help their families harvest grain. The left-behind township soldiers in the villages should give priority to harvesting their food for these township soldiers who fight with the army. They must not let them fight with the army outside, and still worry about their food! These are all trivial things. I hope Mr. Fu can worry more!"
Fu Deming quickly bowed and took the order, "I'm obedient! This is what a humble job should do! General, please rest assured that Bei Zhi will deal with it properly!"
Xiao Tianjian then asked Jin Fuzi, "Mr. Jin! During the period when I led my troops to leave, how many weapons did Zhang Chao deliver here in Shuangfengzhai? Luo Li, the sentry, left the bird in his hand to Yan Chongxi. If you don't send them another guy, this time they will fight with me empty hands!"
After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, everyone couldn't help laughing. Jin Fuzi quickly stood up and replied, "General, the day before yesterday, Zhang Chao just sent someone to send several carts of weapons. The inferior position has been signed into the warehouse. In addition to this batch of weapons, there are now 600 long guns in the Lianhuazhai warehouse, and there are two Hundreds of rattan cards and skin shields, 300 single knives, 320 new bird knives, and 160 pairs of newly repaired armor, more than 500 catties of gunpowder and all kinds of ammunition, which should be enough for Brother Luo's men! By the way, Zhang Chao also sent two newly built bronze cannons this time! It has also been put into storage and can be used at any time!"
After listening to the number of weapons in stock, Xiao Tianjian smiled and said, "It seems that the craftsmen in Shuangfengzhai are not lazy!" Not bad! Luo Li will take out all these weapons tomorrow. In addition to the soldiers on your side, the rest will be handed over to Liu Bao's equipment recruits!"
Both Luo Li and Liu Bao got up to take the order. Xiao Tianjian then asked Liu Bao, "The recruits in the new barracks have also been practicing for more than a month. How are the new recruits on your side? Can you use them?"
Liu Bao immediately straightened his chest and replied, "General, don't worry, those bastards have been honest since the general went to the new barracks last time. They basically gritted their teeth and survived. They are much more obedient than when they first entered the camp! With a humble position, they have completed the basic training. Although they are not fit enough to be in the army, they can also be used in battle!"
"Good! Then you will go back tomorrow and select 600 people, and you will personally lead the team to distribute weapons. In addition, you can also take out the armor in the warehouse and distribute it! I'll give you a day to prepare, and take troops to Hexi Village the day after tomorrow morning to meet me! The rest of the people will be handed over to your deputy and rush to Taipingzhuang to garrison. First, see the movement in Yangcheng County. In addition, if necessary, provide support to Zhao Erlu. A large number of officers and soldiers shall not be allowed to cross the river and invade!" Xiao Tianjian waved his hand and gave an order to Liu Bao.
Liu Bao hurriedly straightened his chest to answer the order with a happy face, and sat back to his position with a smile.
"Luo Li and Shi Ran, prepare for it. After taking out the weapons tomorrow morning, let the brothers work hard and immediately follow me to Hexi Village to meet Li Shuanzhu! Where shall we go to pick up the officers and soldiers in Qinshui County!" Xiao Tianjian then ordered Luo Li and Shi Ran.
Luo Li and Shi Ran immediately got up and took the order.
After hearing this, Wang Chengping became anxious. He got up and said to Xiao Tianjian, "General, what about our cavalry? You can't let us rest!"
Xiao Tianjian saw that Wang Chengping also got up to beg for war, so he waved to the others with a smile and said, "You can go down and rest. Brother Wang and I will discuss something more!"
After listening to the order, the rest of the people got up to salute and withdrew from the Juyi Hall, where only Wang Chengping, Xiao Tianjian and Tietou were left.
Xiao Tianjian called Wang Chengping to the front of the map and pointed to Wang Chengping with a wooden stick. After hearing this, Wang Chengping immediately nodded and said, "I thought the general couldn't trust us! It turns out that the general has had plans for a long time! Haha! All right! Just do as the general said! I'll take someone there early tomorrow morning. I won't let the general down!"
Xiao Tianjian smiled at Wang Chengping and said, "With Brother Wang's skills, how can you be cold benches? This time, your troops are very small. You should be more careful. Don't underestimate the enemy. As long as you win, you will withdraw quickly and don't fall in love!"
Wang Chengping nodded and said, "I'm obedient! General, please rest assured! I'm sure those bastards can't eat and walk away!"
