After a greeting, Cao Huachun, who had something to do in his heart, asked directly: "As far as the Za family knows, tomorrow is the day for the army to attack... In this case, the General's Office did not prepare at the General's Office, but came to the Za family's Office. He didn't know what the General's Office had to do, and he also asked the General to go there in person..."

"You should ask the guards to notify the Zajia directly. The Zajia went to the General's Mansion to see you..."

Under Cao Huachun's sharp eyes, Wei Zheng pretended to be flattered and whispered: "Eunuch Cao is a popular man in front of the emperor. If you want to see me, the general, come to see you. How can you let Eunuch Cao go to the general's mansion to see me? I can't stand it..."

Wei Zheng, who has always been arrogant and looked down on himself, was so flattering at this moment, and there must be a problem with his words. This is the first thought in Cao Huachun's heart after hearing Wei Zheng's words.

Then, he continued with a hint of caution: "The General General was joking... No matter how trusted by the emperor, the Za family was still a eunuch without any authority... How could he compare to the General General? Even if the third-rank official of the court was a powerful general with heavy troops..."

After saying that, without waiting for Wei Zheng to react, he asked bluntly: "I wonder what the general's purpose is?"

Wei Zheng smiled and replied: "Mr. Supervisor, you were sent by the emperor. It is such a big deal to send troops to the rebels. Of course, I have to discuss with you before I dare to issue military orders. Otherwise, if the Supervisor goes up with a note, the court will not take off my official hat directly."

Cao Huachun nodded and said, "Since the General Manager looks down on the Mijia so much, the Mijia will not hold back the General Manager. Besides, your military talent is obvious to our Ming Dynasty. As long as you make the decision, the Mijia will definitely agree.... If you say anything, just say it..."

After the last time, Wei Zheng was not surprised by Cao Huachun's answer that he could put down his airs.

So, under Cao Huachun's gaze, Wei Zheng answered without hesitation: "Since the military supervisor said that, I'm not polite..."

"Although Datong Prefecture has two troops, the Tiger and Leopard Army and the Datong Prefecture garrison, the Datong Prefecture garrison has just been formed and has no combat effectiveness. In order to ensure the safety of Datong Prefecture and our Datong City, I plan to draw 2,000 cavalry from the 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Army. Two thousand infantry will stay in Datong to ensure the safety of Datong and surrounding counties..."

"So, this time I send troops, I plan to bring three thousand cavalry and three thousand infantry..."

Only 6,000 infantry and cavalry launched an attack on more than 20,000 rebels who defended the county town... After hearing this decision, Cao Huachun's first thought was that this battle was very sluggish.

However, he did not rush to deny it, but reminded with thoughtful look: "Master General, will there be too few 6,000 infantry and cavalry... After all, the total strength of the rebels who occupied the two counties of Huairen and Shanyin has reached 25,000."

Under Cao Huachun's gaze, a sigh of helplessness quickly rushed into Wei Zheng's mouth.

Then, he replied to Cao Huachun: "Eunuch Cao, I also want to bring more people... But we only have so many troops. If we bring them all, what should we do in Datong City..."

"In order not to violate the orders of Eunuch Cao and the imperial court, I could only bite the bullet and lead the six thousand infantry and cavalry to attack the rebels."

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng suddenly thought of something.

He continued to say to Cao Huachun: "Of course, please don't worry about Eunuch Cao. If the battlefield fails, our Tiger and Leopard Army will not be the opponent of the rebels. I will definitely lead the Tiger and Leopard Army to withdraw from the battlefield in time to avoid too many casualties in the Tiger and Leopard Army..."

Seeing Cao Huachun nodding with approval, Wei Zheng's words suddenly turned. After staring at Cao Huachun in front of him, he asked: "However, in order to ensure that the soldiers are not afraid of death and enemies on the battlefield, I hope that Eunuch Cao can lead all the eunuchs in the military supervision to come to the battlefield and urge the soldiers to fight..."

Hearing this, Cao Huachun's suspicion of Wei Zheng's purpose from the beginning immediately became a fact...

Even though he knew that the battle with huge disparity in the army might end with the failure of the Tiger and Leopard Army. However, the general Wei Zheng in front of him repeatedly asked him to take all the eunuchs in the battlefield to supervise the army... This is not pushing him and the remaining eunuchs under his command into the fire pit together, and then sing a murder with a knife again...

At this moment, the military message brought back by his subordinates suddenly appeared in Cao Huachun's mind.

Thinking of the fact that I repeatedly asked myself to take the military supervisor to the battlefield to prove it, Cao Huachun's feelings about rumors immediately changed from suspicion to affirmation.

The smile on his face that looked at Wei Zheng quickly disappeared.

In the face of death, he vetoed without thinking: "Master General... It is the soldiers' business to go to the battlefield, and we are just a bunch of eunuchs with no power. Let us go to the battlefield, don't we go to the battlefield to die..."

"Does the General want to see us, like the three eunuchs in the military inspectors, killed by the rebels on the battlefield, and couldn't even find the capital?"

Under Cao Huachun's direct gaze, Wei Zheng pretended to be embarrassed by the feeling of being seen through and explained to Cao Huachun: "Eunuch Cao was joking... You are the confidants sent by the emperor. Even if our Tiger and Leopard Army is killed in the battlefield, we will protect everyone's safety."

"As for the three military eunuchs who died on the battlefield last time, they were all accidents, accidents... I have submitted a memorial to the court and ask the court to commend the three military eunuchs and reward them with great reward..."

Cao Huachun waved his hand directly to stop Wei Zheng from continuing.

As Wei Zheng watched, he said firmly: "Since the war is the business of you generals, we eunuchs will not go to the battlefield to interfere with you... So, the family decided that all the supervisors would stay in Datong City, waiting for the general to defeat the rebels and send us good news... At that time, I will definitely report the merits to the general to the court as soon as possible..."

After performing for so long in front of Cao Huachun, after finally hearing the answer he wanted, a strange and unknown smile quickly flashed from Wei Zheng's face.

Then, under Cao Huachun's gaze, he decided firmly, "Since Eunuch Cao has made a decision, I will do what Eunuch Cao thinks... I personally commanded the 6,000 infantry and cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army, launched an attack on the rebels in Huairen County, and strive to recapture the two counties of Huairen and Shanyin from the rebels..."

"Eunuch Cao, you will take all the military supervisors to stay in Datong Prefecture to ensure the safety of Datong Prefecture..."

A mountain ridge about twenty miles away from Huairen County, 5,000 elite rebels have used huge stones to build a stone wall of more than three feet high on this already very dangerous ridge. We are preparing to use this stone wall to kill the Tiger and Leopard Army's attacking troops with unprecedented huge damage...

As for the rebel commander, he led the senior generals of the army to climb a hill about one mile away from the battlefield, stared at the battlefield motionlessly, and quietly waited until the start of the Tiger and Leopard Army's attack.

The six thousand infantry and cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army, commanded by Wei Zheng, formed six huge attacking phalanxes, and stood motionless in the wilderness about one mile away from the ridge.

Wei Zheng, surrounded by six square formations, was riding on a war horse, holding a monocular lens, and watching the rebels walking on the ridge without saying a word.

At this time, Wang Feng beside him spoke: "General, there are 5,000 rebels, not only equipped with muskets and artillery, but also have terrain advantages and a three-foot-high corpse wall. And we only dispatched a thousand musketeers, isn't it too few..."

Wei Zheng shook his head and replied: "We just need to turn the impossible into a possibility, so that the rebels watching the battle will fear us and have to cooperate with us..."

"As for whether a thousand musketeers can defeat the five thousand rebels in front of them, there is no doubt that, whether the musketeers we equipped or our soldiers, they are far more than the rebels on the ridge. In addition, we also equipped grenades that the rebels do not have. In this case, if we cannot capture the ridge, our Tiger and Leopard Army title will be in vain."

Seeing that Wang Feng and Zhao Yun both nodded with approval, Wei Zheng changed his tone and continued: "However, before the real attack, we must first put unprecedented pressure on the rebels visually..."

"As for this pressure, it depends on our cavalry unit..."

After saying that, Wei Zheng asked Zhao Yun directly: "General Zhao, how about it, are the cavalry ready..."

Zhao Yun's eyes lit up and he replied loudly: "General, please give orders. The cavalry brothers have been ready for a long time, just waiting for your order..."

Wei Zheng nodded and ordered decisively: "Okay...I order, you will immediately command three thousand cavalry, show off your sabers, and attack the mountain ridge..."

"Fare attacking the ridge with cavalry..."

When Zhao Yun heard this order, his first feeling was whether Wei Zheng's order was issued. Because as long as someone with a little military knowledge, he knew that there was no difference between cavalry feint attacks and death.

Just as Zhao Yun's scream was just echoing and was about to ask questions, Wei Zheng's voice sounded again: "What's the hurry? My military order has not been finished..."

"Your attack is not a real attack, but shows your strong strength to the rebels. Therefore, the cavalry soldiers only need to rush to the foot of the mountain ridge to retreat. Of course, before retreating, you can also give the rebels a rain of guns... Although they cannot kill them, we can give the rebels a demonstration before attacking and severely hit the morale of the rebels..."
