Bao Chou's face darkened and he scolded: "Heir, don't talk nonsense. We only have this small force to defend Haiyan City. How can we control the villages ten miles away? Our actions are already very fast. We have already
Everyone was informed to take refuge in the city, but there are always some people who are reluctant to part with their property and are a little slow to arrive, especially women, children, the elderly and the weak. How can they leave everything and go into the city within a day or two."
Bao Sizhi gritted his teeth: "Dad, I don't have any objections to Liu Canjun, and I'm not deliberately making things difficult. I think about it purely from the perspective of military and city defense."
Bao Hou said in a deep voice: "That's enough. The war is about to begin. Don't shake the morale of the army here and talk nonsense again. You are engaged in military law and retreat quickly!"
Liu Yu waved his hand: "Bao Linggong, since the young master said it is about defending the city, he should be allowed to finish his words. He has the responsibility of guarding Haiyan in the past, and he must be much more familiar with the situation here than me. I want to listen.
Listen to what he has to say."
A trace of pride flashed across Bao Sizhi's face, and he said: "Haiyan is a famous place in Wudi that is rich in fish and rice. There is a big lake next to it. We will build the city and control the gateway to the south of Wuxing. From here, go northeast
You can directly go to Jiankang via the land route of Wuxing and Yixing, go northwest, or you can go straight to Hudu and control the river mouth. The demon thieves have a huge fleet. This time they are attacking our Haiyan with light troops. The baggage and food may be
It is transported by fleet, so only by capturing Haiyan can we take the initiative in the overall situation."
Liu Yu nodded: "Master Bao is really good at seeing the demon thief's goals and choices. No wonder Yan Shuai kept praising you when he was here."
Bao Sizhi said excitedly: "Has Yan Shuai really praised me like this? Then why did he not take me with him during the decisive battle, but kept me in Haiyan?"
Liu Yu said with a smile: "Because at that time, the demon thieves were in chaos, and there were demon thieves and gang members everywhere. He himself was in charge of Shanyin, and he sent powerful troops to divide the school into different places. This is because he has confidence in you, Mr. Bao, to take charge of your own affairs. I believe in you and your
My father could independently deal with the demon thieves in the Haiyan area and ensure the safety of this choke point. As for the demon thieves who later came ashore to cause trouble, the situation was sudden and he was defeated and died before he even had time to summon the defenders from various places. It does not mean that there is no need.
You, you still remember that at that time, I got his general order to go to Shanyin to meet up, and he also specifically said that I must pass by Haiyan and take you with me."
Bao Sizhi looked at Bao Chou with a smile: "Did you hear that, Dad, Yan Shuai also valued the child very much back then. It was you who always looked down on the child and said that I was brave and foolhardy."
A trace of pride flashed across Bao Chou's face, but he still pretended to be sullen: "A few words are taken seriously. If you really want to prove your ability, tell Liu Canjun your thoughts quickly."
, let someone give you some advice, Liu Canjun is a famous general in the world, you have to learn from him."
Bao Sizhi nodded and said: "I just mentioned that this land of sea salt is rich in products. Because it is close to the big lake, there are many fishermen and fishermen right next to the lake. After receiving the order from the Wei army leader, we will arrange it as soon as possible.
The nearby farmers moved into the city, but among those fishermen, one was a long way away, and the other was that they mostly had their own fishing boats and fishing gear, and were reluctant to just abandon them. Many of the men came to the city first to serve, while the women
I hid these fishing boats at home. I wasted my time by going back and forth. Now that the demon thief is coming from the west, the more than 20 fishing villages must have fallen into the hands of the thief. When I came just now, the people who came from the fishing village were
There are more than three hundred men in the city, all crying and asking us to find a way to save their wives and children. If we just stay in this city, the people in the city will be fine, but the people outside the city may not be able to calm down.
"
Liu Yu's brows furrowed tightly: "You mean, more than a few thousand people have now fallen into the hands of demon thieves?"
Bao Sizhi sighed: "Otherwise they would have come back a long time ago. The demon thieves came so quickly, I'm afraid they wouldn't have time to escape. When the demon thieves set up camp just now, there were sergeants on duty who saw hundreds of women.
People were strung together with ropes and taken into the camp. Some of them were even wearing fishing clothes and bamboo hats. They were obviously the fishermen's wives by the lake."
Liu Yu shook his head: "I'm sorry, there are more than 20,000 people in the city, and there are more than a thousand women in the enemy camp outside the city. I can't lose 20,000 people just because of more than a thousand women. What's more, Haiyan's status is extremely
It is important. If this place is lost, not only the more than 20,000 soldiers and civilians in Ducheng will be killed, but also Jiankang City and even the entire Jin Dynasty will be in extreme danger. The demon thieves rushed in with light troops and defeated three groups of our Beifu Army.
They didn't stop and went straight to Haiyan City, but here they captured the people outside the city. Do you really think they want to threaten the people like before?"
Bao Chou's eyes lit up: "You mean, they want to"
Liu Yu nodded heavily: "They just want these women to threaten the families of the soldiers guarding the city. They will even publicly torture and humiliate these women, provoke their husbands and fathers, and force them to fight out of the city. Such methods of driving people to attack the city.
The methods are commonly used by Tianshi Dao. We must not be fooled."
Bao Hou gritted his teeth: "But no man can watch his wife and daughter being humiliated and remain indifferent. They entered the city under my order. If I can't protect their family, I will let them see and hear this."
How embarrassing is this insult? I’m afraid there will be trouble in the city!"
Liu Yu looked at Bao Sizhi: "Mr. Bao, you said you are familiar with the situation here, can you bring all the strong men from the fishermen by the lake, plus some soldiers and horses to defend the city, to make up about a thousand people, and take advantage of the opportunity now?"
How about quietly leaving the city through the east gate when the enemy is not besieging the city?"
Bao Siyi looked excited: "Okay, okay, do you want me to rob the camp? I am good at this. When the demon thief Xu Yunzhi came to attack the city, I would..."
Liu Yu interrupted him: "No, you don't need to rob the camp this time, but you have to tell these militiamen that you are on a rescue mission. Then, go out from the east gate and walk east of the city, passing by Hangzhou
Qiu, Lingxiu Mountain area, turn to the south, and stay overnight in the Qianqu River area. When the demon thief breaks camp and goes north tomorrow, you can go to his camp. I think by that time, these women will probably stay there. Then you
Then we can rescue them."
Bao Sizhi opened his eyes wide: "Are you going to separate us and defend the city alone?"
Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, these men's families are trapped in the enemy camp and their military morale is unstable. Staying in the city will not only be of no benefit, but will shake people's hearts at any time, so you must take them out for a day.
During this day, I will find a way to defend Haiyan City. If the enemy cannot attack the city, they will not waste any more time and will definitely move northward. In order to stop our pursuit, they will abandon their baggage and women. When the time comes,
, you can lead your men to rescue your woman."
