Chapter 4554: The guard camp is as stable as a mountain

Jingzhou, Matou Camp.

Tan Zhi, wearing a general's robe and armor, stood on the arrow tower at the easternmost camp gate, frowning, looking at the three rising smoke pillars seventy miles away, his hand pressed tightly on the hilt of the sword,

The other hand firmly grasped the armrest of the arrow tower in front of him without saying a word.

Tan Shihuai stood behind Tan Zhi and said urgently: "Lord, please give the order quickly. If we don't attack or reinforce, I'm afraid Wulindu will be in danger. They, after all, they only have an army of about a thousand people."

Tan Zhi shook his head gently: "Two red and one black, the enemy's attack is only a few hundred people, and it is not to the point where reinforcements are necessary. Our mission is to firmly defend the Matou Camp, and we must not do it here.

If there is an accident, if Wulindu is really dangerous, the beacon signal there will also change."

Having said this, Tan Zhi looked back at Captain Asiba and smiled: "Asiba, what do you think?"

Asiba sighed: "Young handsome, what I say may not be pleasant to your ears, please don't mind."

Tan Zhi nodded: "It doesn't matter. Among all the Dongman brothers, you are the most brave and knowledgeable, so I want to hear your opinion."

Axiba said sternly: "If the demon thieves dare to attack Wulin Ferry directly, the size of their troops may not be only a few hundred people. These people may be just the vanguard, and the main force is behind. To be on the safe side, I think we should send at least one

More than a thousand reinforcements are sent to reinforce there. If the problem is really not big, then we can evacuate. Besides, there is an abandoned village called Zutoichi more than ten miles west of Wulindu. We can also evacuate there.

We can leave an army behind to provide support."

Tan Shihuai's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "What Captain Axiba said is so good. My lord, why don't you give the order and send a team of troops to see what the situation is like? We still have more than 3,000 people here.

It’s enough to defend the Matou Camp.”

Tan Zhi curled up his lips: "This is a military plane. You only considered the first one and didn't know the second. It was yesterday that we entered the Matou Camp. Before yesterday, there were only 500 defenders here, but after we entered the camp

At that time, we entered the camp in batches and repeated many times, with great fanfare and momentum, and the sky was full of smoke and dust. Even if the enemy had spies nearby, they would not be able to see clearly what we were and what we were, right, Lord Luo."

As he spoke, he looked behind him at a medium-sized, dark-skinned officer in his thirties. He was the previous garrison owner of Ma Tou Camp, named Luo Huainan. He was a native of Jingzhou, and his five hundred sergeants were also from nearby.

The common people enlisted in the army. When they heard Tan Zhi's question, they quickly said: "Exactly, General Tan. In order to welcome the arrival of the army, all the brothers in the camp were dispersed five miles away to guard and investigate. There is no way that any spies can approach.

Within five miles, if..."

Tan Zhi waved his hand to stop Luo Huainan's increasingly excited words: "Okay, Lord Luo, you have done a good job. I have also seen it. I believe that even if the enemy has spies in Jingzhou,

, and it is impossible to know what is true and false here, so perhaps the attack on Wulindu is a test to see how many reinforcements we send to estimate the strength of our camp."

Asiba suddenly understood: "Oh, there is such a way, but I was negligent and didn't think of it. So, we can't go out easily."

Tan Zhi nodded: "We came to the Matou Camp because we were not sure about the direction of the demon thief's attack, so we had to take a preventive action. Otherwise, why didn't we just go directly to Wulindu? That's why we didn't go directly to Wulindu.

Only a large military camp like Ma Tou Camp, which can accommodate tens of thousands of troops, can conceal the fact that we only have four thousand troops. If we go to Wulindu, our strength will be exposed. If the enemy knows our strength,

Then we can make corresponding tactics.”

At this point, Tan Zhi curled up his lips: "Just like at Wulindu now, the enemy's attack force is only a few hundred people. They are obviously testing, how can they attack Wulindu with this small force? Or not?

To fight, it must be a large army attack, unless it is to cover their main attack direction. One is Jiangxia and the other is Jiangling. However, we have not received any information that the enemy has a large fleet on the river, so I think it is unlikely that they will

They should have gathered forces from Changsha to attack Wulindu, preparing to seize the ferry first and then welcome the subsequent large army of demon thieves to land from here."

Tan Shihuai said in surprise: "In that case, we should dispatch troops and horses now to reinforce Wulindu. If we hold it there, the enemy will not be able to go ashore."

Tan Zhi shook his head: "There is no need for this. Wulin Ferry is not a dangerous place in the first place. It has long been used as a civilian ferry corresponding to Lukou Ferry on the other side, for merchants and fishermen traveling on both sides of the river.

Yes, it is just because we are going to fight now that we built a temporary military camp outside the ferry as a warning protection. The purpose is not to defend this place, but to give an early warning. As long as our Matou camp holds firm, even if the monster thieves come ashore,

It cannot be entrenched for a long time. If the army is in place, then we can directly attack Wulin Ferry and drive the unsteady demon thieves down the river."

At this point, Tan Zhi's voice changed: "It's just that we don't have enough troops now. Whether the demon thieves in front are feigning an attack or a main attack, or whether they are a force reconnaissance to test our strength, we need to look at it again. We are now

The best thing to do is to stay put and wait and see what happens next."

Luo Huainan curled up his lips: "General Tan, I have a little doubt, that is, if we don't go out like this, will the demon thieves see that we are lacking in strength, and then let go and attack with all our strength? We don't know this now.

I don’t know whether the demon thief came from Changsha or Jiangzhou. I don’t even know if Yingjiu’s troops came to attack. Do I need to ask Liu Zhengxi for instructions?”

Tan Zhi smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Liu Zhengxi asked me to come here because he wanted me to act cheaply and make random decisions. The military situation on this battlefield is so fierce that if we hesitate, we may miss the chance to fight. Besides, if we don't even know about it,

It is even more impossible for Liu Zhengxi to know what is going on ahead. If you ask him for instructions, you are asking him for help. What if he comes with Jiangling's army, but the enemy suddenly goes straight to Jiangling?"

Luo Huainan's face turned pale and he murmured: "This, this is too simple to think of a humble position. Oops, I almost made a big mistake, and I asked General Tan to punish him."

Tan Zhi was about to speak when suddenly, from the arrow tower on one side, the sharp-eyed scout's voice came: "There is a group of men and horses coming from the front, everyone is on alert!"
