"Brother Mu, Brother Dadao, you have worked hard most of the night. You should go and have a rest. You will still be busy early tomorrow morning."
After the interrogation, Zhu Pingan patted Liu Mu and Liu Dadao on the shoulders and asked them to go down and rest.
Zhu Ping'an himself returned to the third hall of the county government office, lit the oil lamp, brewed a pot of strong tea, and started deducing again based on the interrogation results.
The results of the interrogation have confirmed that Heihachi Honda, Tie Kongang and the leader of Jiangmen are a group of three groups of Japanese pirates. The leader of Jiangmen is the big leader, Heihachi Honda is the second leader, and Tie Kongang is the third leader. The total strength of the three groups of Japanese pirates is more than 10,000. The three groups of Japanese pirates
Before landing, they had divided up seven counties in Taizhou, dispersed and plundered them, and agreed to rendezvous at Taizhou Fucheng in five days. Tomorrow evening is the deadline for rendezvous. Honda Heihachi has ordered to break camp in Taiping County at noon tomorrow and go to Taizhou Fucheng to join Jiangmen Lord.
.
Tomorrow at noon, this is a very critical time.
Zhu Pingan put down his teacup, squinted his eyes, tapped the table with his index finger, and pursed his lips.
Honda Heihachi will break camp and leave Taiping County at noon tomorrow!
If I had led my troops to arrive in Taiping County before Honda Heihachi camped out at noon, then Honda Heihachi's behavior of leaving Taiping County would have become: Zhu Ping'an, the magistrate of Jingnan County, was not afraid of sacrifice, led his troops to aid Taiping County, and was at odds with the forces entrenched in Taiping County.
After a fierce battle between the Japanese pirates, the Japanese pirates who were entrenched in Taiping County were expelled by Jingnan Magistrate Zhu Pingan and were beaten away. Jingnan Magistrate Zhu Pingan recovered Taiping County, the land of the Ming Dynasty that had been invaded by the Japanese pirates. In this way, Taiping was rescued and the Japanese pirates were expelled.
The credit for restoring peace will fall firmly on yourself.
If he and his troops arrived in Taiping County after Honda Heihachi left the camp at noon, then Honda Heihachi's behavior of leaving Taiping County would have nothing to do with him, and he would naturally have no merit.
Therefore, he must lead his troops to rescue Taiping County before Honda Heihachi breaks camp and leaves Taiping County at noon.
This opportunity must be grasped well. It can be earlier, but not too early, and never late. If it is too early, it will leave enough time for Honda Heihachi, and the danger will be great. If Honda Heihachi cannot be guaranteed, Honda Heihachi will regain his position, and in
When fighting Japanese pirates in the wild, Zhu Pingan thought that he had no chance of winning; if it were too late, Honda Heihachi would have already abandoned his camp and left Taiping, so the credit would have nothing to do with him.
Theoretically speaking, Honda Heihachi has a mission. He has to go to Taizhou Prefecture to join Jiang Clan Master and He Bing to attack Taizhou Mansion. I believe that he will not fight with him in the field. On the one hand, fighting in the field will inevitably miss his agreement with Jiang Clan Master.
On the other hand, in a field battle, even if the Japanese pirates have a chance of winning, they will definitely lose their troops. Honda Heihachi lost half of his troops when he attacked Jingnan last time. This time he will definitely consider it carefully.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Honda Heihachi would rather rendezvous late and lose troops and generals in order to regain his position.
All these must be taken into consideration!
Zhu Ping'an took a sip of strong tea, rubbed his brows, cheered up, and started planning carefully.
The oil lamp in the third hall of the county government stayed on until the fourth watch, and then reluctantly said goodbye to the starlight outside the window and extinguished it.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhu Ping'an had already gotten up. Just like yesterday, he took a refreshing cold shower while washing, and he was full of energy to welcome a new day.
The military glory that heaven has given me is at my fingertips, how can I give it up?
"Now we have a huge achievement in front of us, and we can get it at our fingertips..." Zhu Ping'an used the breakfast sent by Baozi's maid Hua'er, and then summoned Liu Mu, Liu Dadao and others to inform him of his plan to attack.
got them.
"Grab it! Master, this is a good thing that only happens once in a hundred years. It's just like picking it up for nothing! If you don't grab it, it's nothing!"
As soon as Zhu Ping'an finished speaking, Liu Dadao rubbed his big bear paw hands excitedly and shouted excitedly.
"Sir, this is a God-given military achievement! Of course we can't let it go." Liu Mu and the others also expressed their support for him.
Liu Dadao and the others had full trust in Zhu Pingan. Zhu Pingan asked them to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of fire without blinking an eye. Now after listening to Zhu Pingan's analysis and planning, this military achievement is as good as picking it up for nothing.
Ping An's plan is watertight and there is no risk at all. Naturally, it is supported ten thousand times.
"Okay! Then let's take some of the battle glory from him!" Zhu Ping'an nodded vigorously and made his decision.
To rush to Taiping to grab the credit, someone must be there. If there are dozens of county government officials, they can only give away people and not take the credit. Therefore, the young and strong must be recruited. Only with the strength of the people, Honda Heihachi will not dare to cause trouble.
,act rashly.
"Brother Mu, Daqiang, please post this recruitment document and recruit five hundred young and strong people. If there is no war, each person will receive five taels of silver; if there is war, the reward will be the same as when defending the city, ten taels per person.
, an additional reward of ten taels of silver for injuries, and an additional pension of fifty taels for those killed in battle. This recruitment is completely voluntary and there is no need to force it."
Zhu Pingan took out the official document for recruiting young people that he had written last night, stamped it with the county magistrate's seal, and gave it to Liu Mu and Liu Daqiang, asking them to post the official document outside the county government office to recruit five hundred young people.
.
"Big Sword, Big Hammer, take this official document, take a few government officials, and go recruit a hundred carriages."
After arranging for Liu Mu and Liu Daqiang, Zhu Pingan took out the official document for recruiting carriages that he had written last night, stamped it with the county magistrate's seal, handed it to Liu Dadao and Liu Dachui, and asked them to bring a few government officials to recruit one hundred taels.
carriage.
"Dagang, take this order and inspect the six offices of the county government to see which officials are there, and recruit them all. You don't need to say much to them, just say that they will be recruited to help Taiping County." Zhu Ping'an said to Liu Dagang.
, and asked him to take the order with him to inspect the various cells of the county government and recruit all the county government officials.
This is also a test for Zhu Ping'an's subordinates in the six houses, and it is also the last chance given to them.
The last time Honda Ping Bayi and Japanese pirates attacked Jingnan County, Dianshi Li Da was the first to abandon the city and flee. The county magistrate Zhang Changru and the chief secretary Yao Wenyuan also followed closely behind and fled without a trace. Until now, they have all
They haven't come back yet. It is estimated that the Japanese pirates will not come back until they leave Taizhou Prefecture for a day. As for the subordinate officials in the sixth house of the county government, after hearing the news of the Japanese pirates attacking the city, they all ran away without a trace, or they disappeared.
Following Li Da and others, they abandoned the city and fled, or abandoned their county government uniforms and fled back to their homes to hide.
It is no exaggeration to say that the county government offices were all empty at that time!
After the successful defense of Jingnan City, Zhu Ping'an has been busy with post-war reconstruction, leaving early and returning late, and has not spared time to liquidate them. However, I heard that some subordinate officials who escaped in the past two days have shamelessly returned to work as if nothing had happened.
Zhu Pingan took this opportunity to test them and give them the last chance. If they can change their ways and be drafted to help Taiping, Zhu Pingan can deal with them lightly or even forget about it. If they don't want to repent, then what will happen next?
When I free up my time to sort things out, I will never show mercy to them.
