Late that night, the courtyard in Zhuxian Town was used as a temporary headquarters.
The imperial concubine, who had long legs, high deerskin boots, and a tight-fitting leather jacket that made it easier to move, walked to Privy Councilor Hu's office with a "dang-dang" sound.
What a guy! His face, figure and temperament are exactly like those agents from the Fruit Party in the movie who are called "vixens".
Unfortunately, Hu Biao, who was working at his desk at the moment, could not even raise his head.
He just asked in his mouth: "The fleet has arrived?"
The imperial concubine didn't care at all about Hu Biao's reaction; she didn't even need to look through the small notebook in her hand, and immediately started to report:
They were lucky along the way today. They were only hit by trebuchets and sank one ship, so the loss was not big.
Therefore, among the supplies that arrived, there were one 12-pounder Napoleon cannon, two 6-pounder cannons, 25 Congreve rockets, 216 muskets, and 31,000 rounds of bullets.
That's right! Along with the fleet, there were also 681 civilians who had received certain training.
What do you plan to do with these recently produced combat supplies and the newly mobilized civilians?"
After hearing this, Hu Biao finally put down the brush in his hand.
When this guy raised his head, he could immediately see that he had stubble on his face, dark circles under his eyes, and bags under his eyes. It was obvious at a glance that he hadn't slept well for a long time.
No wonder, no matter how charming a lady is, for Hu Biao now.
I'm afraid there isn't a big bed where he can sleep for an hour or two.
No way! Ever since Baron, the assistant secretary of the commander, was transferred to the position of deputy division commander of the 3rd Infantry Division, which had an astonishing battle loss rate.
Other netizens are like a carrot and a pit these days. Everyone has too much to do.
Therefore, Hu Biao, who was in charge of the overall situation, had to deal with more and more work at once.
I was very tired every day, so I just practiced the breathing method for two weeks; then I wrapped myself in a cloak and squinted on a stool for an hour, and that was it.
After staying up like this for several days in a row and having the current image, it is naturally a very normal thing.
Before answering the concubine's question, Hu Biao first rolled himself a trumpet cigarette and smoked half of it after a few puffs. After a while, he finally woke up after a violent cough.
At this moment, Hu Biao gave an answer:
"The old rule is to stock up on Congreve rockets first. I remember that after adding these, there were almost 300, right?
During the final battle, one guy greeted them all and gave the Jin people a big surprise.
All other civilians, muskets, artillery, and most of the bullets should be sent to the Third Division on the right wing, and we will transport them there tonight."
Regarding Hu Biao's decision, the imperial concubine was not surprised at all.
Now the Jin people have obviously placed the key area of breakthrough on the right wing position, which is considered to be much weaker in terms of the overall combat effectiveness of the defenders.
In order to maintain the defensive line, the right wing really needs to divert resources.
So in the following time, she asked another important point:
"Not two days after War Dogs, Baron, who took over, also died. There is something really evil about the right wing, and there is a sense that whoever goes will die.
So who are you going to choose as the next deputy division commander to partner with Corn?"
"Fenghuahui, although this guy is a rookie, he seems to be relatively reliable. As for the staff, just leave the team to keep an eye on it. Anyway, it is a war of attrition every day, and there is not much to do without the staff."
After Hu Biao pondered for a while, he gave this answer.
And after he finished speaking, Hu Biao was ready to lower his head and start working again.
But when he saw that the imperial concubine had no intention of leaving after reporting the situation, he couldn't help but ask: "Why, do you still have something to do?"
Not to mention, the imperial concubine is really in trouble.
After hesitating for a while, she asked a question that many netizens have been thinking about in the past two days:
"Lao Hu, when will we start a decisive battle with the Jin people?
The system tasks of the second phase stipulate that before midnight on the 15th, the Jin soldiers must be defeated and withdrawn; we can't just take action on the last day. By then, there will be no room left, and if there is any accident, we will be in trouble.
Today is already the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, and there are only five days left, so there is not much time left for us."
Faced with such a question, Hu Biao finally fell into deep thought for a long time, and after a long time he said lightly:
"It's almost time. I'm currently waiting for a change of opportunity. I'll take action as soon as the change of opportunity arrives."
But what exactly is this 'turning point'? In the following time, no matter how the imperial concubine asked, Hu Biao never said a single word of explanation.
"It's so mysterious, I don't mind listening to it anymore."
In the end, because she was thinking about loading some seriously injured people on the fleet and transporting them back to Kaifeng City, the imperial concubine left the headquarters right here.
But what this so-called 'turning point' was, in the following time, deeply affected her curiosity.
As the old saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.
Based on the same reason, once a woman's curiosity is aroused, it is also quite scary to say
So much so that in the following time, this 'turning point' occupied almost all of her thoughts; she was also particularly concerned about slightly special things...
*******
In the next two days, some relatively important things happened.
For example, early in the morning of the next day, when the two sides set up their positions and prepared to fight again, Hu Biao and the others were surprised to discover something:
Among the Jin people, Wanyan Zongbi, who was considered one of the highest commanders of the Jin people, had lost his banner.
Also disappearing with it was the ‘Iron Buddha’ with at least one person and two riders.
Fortunately, based on what they detected after passing through Erhei, Haidongqing, the other side of Erhei, these people were heading straight towards Luoyang.
This just shows that the Jin people were deceived.
At least they passed a piece of false information passed on from Geng Nanzhong, and now the Jin people have a huge suspicion about Yaoshi Guo and his Chang Sheng Army.
Faced with the unacceptable consequence that if Pharmacist Guo rebelled, his escape route would be cut off.
Therefore, Wanyan Zongbi, also known as "Jin Wushu" in later generations, should have hurried back to Yanjing with a powerful force like Tiefutu to take charge.
It's a pity that the 'kidnapping horse' was not taken away by Wanyan Zongbi.
Otherwise, the threats that Hu Biao and the others need to deal with on the main battlefield of Zhuxian Town will be much smaller...
Secondly, on the morning of the 11th, the banner of Wanyan Zonghan, the commander-in-chief of the Jin army, actually disappeared in the eyes of Hu Biao and others.
This time, Hu Biao and the others finally panicked.
I thought this was because the Jin army, after suffering heavy losses in their attack on the Song Dynasty, finally stopped fighting and ran away to attack other places.
Fortunately, the two fat Haidongqing and Erhei have made meritorious deeds again.
When everyone was most worried, someone hurriedly flew in to deliver an important piece of information:
Wanyan Zonghan's grandson did not run away, but personally led a cavalry force of about 30,000 people. After a circle, they appeared at the gate of Kaifeng City this morning.
As a result, after Wanyan Zonghan arrived at the city, facing a crowd of people who had been mobilized in a hurry, he actually did not choose to launch an attack on the city.
Instead, they sent out several personal guards with loud voices, shouting at the city gate for Lang Qing to come out and meet him.
Lang Qing initially thought that something shocking was going on, but after hurried over, he saw Wanyan Zonghan and proposed to recruit him to surrender.
It is said that as long as Lang Qing is willing to surrender, the Kingdom of Jin will definitely welcome him. No matter what conditions are negotiated, he can even be crowned king.
Then Lang Qing, with great depression, personally loaded a newly produced 12-pounder cannon and fired one round at Wanyan Zonghan.
Unfortunately, the artillery shell failed to hit Wanyan Zonghan himself, and only knocked down the Chinese flag.
In a rage, Wanyan Zonghan immediately launched a siege.
However, under the counterattack of the people who kept throwing grenades on the city wall that was more than 12 meters high, in a very short period of time, thousands of people came online on the Jinren side.
Such casualties made Wanyan Zonghan react immediately.
I know that this Kaifeng city is still the same city, and the people are still the same people, but it is no longer a place that they could easily conquer in the past...
Although the above two items can have a considerable impact on the current battle situation, judging from Hu Biao's expression, it is obvious that they are not the 'turning point' he mentioned.
Just when the imperial concubine, who was always thinking about such a thing, felt like she was going crazy.
On October 13th, the second to last day of the mission deadline.
When the sky was just getting bright, the imperial concubine finally knew what the so-called turning point was after opening the door of the room where she lived.
Because a southwest wind blew on her body and immediately made the girl shiver.
After feeling the cold wind with a moist temperament, she suddenly realized: it looked like a continuous autumn rain was about to fall.
Before the rain dampened their gunpowder, they had to fight this battle even if they didn't want to...
