The first thousand four hundred and seventy-eight chapters
Yesterday, after Zhu Pingan returned to Taohuaji School Ground from Yingtian, he actively organized the army and prepared for war. However, because it was getting late when he returned, some things that needed to be completed out of camp, such as procurement, were not easy to carry out. Zhu Pingan said at night
When I stayed up late to prepare a plan to exterminate the Japanese, I listed clearly the items that needed to be purchased from the camp, and wrote a handwritten letter to Mrs. Yilan, the chieftain of Wuxi Miao.
The next day, there was just a hint of hazy morning light in the sky. Zhu Ping'an got up after sleeping for less than two hours, washed briefly, and called Liu Daqiang, Liu Dachui and others early.
"Daqian, you take one hundred taels of silver, select fifty cavalry, and go to Taohua Market Town to purchase the items listed on the paper. If you can't purchase them in Taohua Market Town, go to Yingtian. You must go back as soon as possible without delay."
"Sledgehammer, take my handwritten letter and this one hundred taels of silver, select fifty cavalrymen, all equipped with two horses, and rush all the way to Wuxi Miaoman's base - Wuxi Miao Town, to meet the Wuxi Miao chieftain
Madam Zanglan, let’s see how they live down the mountain and what difficulties they have, and at the same time purchase a large amount of their tribe’s secret knives and medicine.”
Zhu Pingan handed over the banknotes, purchase orders, letters, etc. to Liu Daqiang, Liu Dachui and others, and asked them to select elite cavalry and act separately. Since Wuxi Town where Wuxi Miao currently lives is far away, Zhu Pingan is particularly
Liu Dachui emphasized that when traveling, he must wear two horses to facilitate transfers on the road.
The Shangyu Japanese pirates were ambitious and extremely fierce, so Zhu Pingan paid great attention to them and made many preparations in advance.
Material procurement is just one of them.
When marching and fighting, supplies and herbs are indispensable. Wuxi Miao's secret medicine knife is very effective in creating medicine. Naturally, the more the better.
Near noon, the Marquis of Linhuai and the Duke of Wei came together, and they brought the latest Tangbao news to Zhu Ping'an.
After Zhu Pingan read the pond newspaper once, he went back to read it again, then frowned and his expression became serious.
"What's the matter, nephew? What's the problem with Tang Bao?" Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis put down their teacups and asked.
"Uncle, Ping An has indeed found a problem." Zhu Ping'an nodded slightly, looked at the two people and explained, "Uncle, please read the records in the Tang newspaper. The Japanese pirates in Shangyu had a confrontation, and Miao Yin and other troops were defeated. The Japanese pirates drove Miao Yin
The Japanese troops attacked Zeng Qianhu's troops, causing Zeng Qianhu's troops to be in chaos. Following the Miao Yin troops' retreat, the Japanese pirates effortlessly won a great victory. However, in such an easy victory, the Shangyu Japanese pirates lost two men.
Thirty people, setting a record for the highest battle losses since they landed in the Ming Dynasty! Don't the two uncles find it strange? In the past, Shangyu Japanese pirates often fought against officers and soldiers, but the losses were very small. At most, a few Japanese pirates died and a few were injured.
It’s just a Japanese pirate. How has there ever been such a loss of twenty or thirty people?!”
"Why, nephew, do you suspect that the Tang newspaper is forged?!" Marquis Linhuai looked up at Zhu Pingan, smiled and shook his head, "Haha, no! Nephew, you are overthinking. After this battle, the Japanese pirates attacked
When we were in Wuhu County, it was in broad daylight. Under the clear sky, the soldiers and ordinary people on the walls of Wuhu County all saw it. There were thousands of people in front of them. I counted them many times. The attackers were under the city.
There are only fifty-seven Japanese pirates. It’s only fifty-seven, and it’s not a big number, so you can’t count it wrong.”
After the Marquis of Linhuai finished speaking, Wei Guogong also laughed, "My dear nephew, you really think too much. There is a saying from the ancients, 'At the end of a strong crossbow, the force cannot penetrate the plains." Now the Japanese pirates who landed in Shangyu are already strong crossbows.
At the end of the day, we have no strength left; besides, Commander Miao and Zeng Qianhu, they have a total of 3,000 coalition troops, not 3,000 pigs. Isn’t it normal to cause twenty men of losses to the Japanese pirates?"
Hehe, it’s not a Sanwutou pig?!
Come on, don't insult the pigs. Their three thousand coalition troops are worse than three pigs. If three thousand pigs come roaring towards us, no matter how fierce these dozens of Japanese pirates are, they will all be dead. There is a saying in the countryside: "One pig"
"Two bears and three tigers, the most ferocious is the wild boar king." This proverb is enough to prove the ferocity of the wild boar.
Zhu Pingan cursed in his heart, but in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, Zhu Pingan did not say it out loud.
"Uncle, at the end of the crossbow, it is true that you can't wear silk, but the Japanese pirates who landed in Shangyu are far from the end of the crossbow." Zhu Pingan said slowly.
Wei Guogong smiled and shook his head, and said with a face of experienced confidence, "Haha, nephew, you are just inexperienced. There are only fifty-seven people in the bandits, and they are at the end of their rope and at the end of their war effort."
Zhu Ping'an asked, "Uncle, if the Japanese pirates are at the end of their strength, why do they still attack Wuhu County?!"
Wei Guogong smiled and continued, "Haha. Nephew, the Japanese pirates went to attack Wuhu County, which just proves that they are at the end of the war. Nephew, please read the Tang newspaper carefully. The Tang newspaper records that the Japanese pirates set fire to the south bank of Wuhu and took the opportunity to sneak across to the north bank of Wuhu.
Attacked Wuhu County, but when Wuhu County cut off the moat bridge in time and closed the city gate, this group of Japanese pirates had no choice but to retreat in despair and disappear. In a small county town, the city gate was closed, and this group of Japanese pirates
There is nothing we can do, if they are not at the end of their fight, what are they?!"
Zhu Ping'an shook his head, looked at Wei Guogong, and said softly: "Uncle, the Japanese pirates dare to attack Wuhu County. As long as they have this ambition, no matter what reason they fail to succeed, it proves that they are not at the end of the war. It should be noted that ambition is all.
It comes from strength. Since they dare to attack Wuhu County, it proves that they have the strength, and it proves that they are not at the end of their fight."
After Zhu Pingan finished speaking, Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai looked at each other, then shook their heads and laughed.
Well
What are you laughing at?!
Zhu Pingan was puzzled.
"Oh, my dear nephew, you are still young. You have experienced too few setbacks. You have not yet come out from the shadow of the emergency military situation that failed last time. My dear nephew, failure is not terrible. You are still young. If you stumble a few times, you will be out of trouble.
Being ugly a few times is nothing, as long as you remember the lessons and gain experience, you won't suffer any losses this time."
Linhuai Marquis and Wei Guogong looked at Zhu Pingan with some sympathy. They believed that Zhu Pingan's reasons were completely far-fetched and not convincing at all. In the final analysis, they were still young and could not face and accept the failure caused by the last emergency military situation.
, these are all far-fetched excuses to justify his mistakes in urgent military situations.
faint!
Zhu Ping'an was speechless. He looked at the two people with a wry smile and explained: "Uncle, you have misunderstood. Ping'an is not trying to provide evidence for yesterday's emergency military situation. Instead, he is discussing the matter and analyzing it rationally and factually."
