"President Ding's body is still cold. Mr. Xu is going to kill his adopted son. Aren't you afraid that Mr. Ding will settle the score with you, the father-in-law, at night?"
Han Baihang smiled sarcastically, rapped the table with his knuckles hard, and said impatiently: "I've secured the person. If Mr. Xu takes a liking to me, Han Baihang, and sells me a face, he will be released. If you don't give me this,
Face, I saw you brought a lot of troops with you when you came, how about we have a real fight outside the county government office?"
He deliberately acted like a reckless warrior, because he knew that Xu Wangtang was an old man and could not reach an agreement in negotiations. He could only advance in order to retreat and provoke him. Xu Wangtang would never dare to use force with the officers and soldiers.
Nine will compromise.
Xu Wangtang was extremely angry and laughed. He had not yet gone crazy. He used force with the officers and soldiers, and the reason became unreasonable. He might be accused of being a rebel. Such a method was just for him to use the rest of his tricks.
How can you be fooled? Moreover, the enemy is currently facing, and the bandits are watching eagerly outside the city. If there is internal strife, no matter who wins or loses, the bandits will only be benefited in the end. It is okay for Han Baihang to be single, but the Xu family has a great business in Yongcheng, so it is definitely not possible.
Take the risk.
"Captain Han, you really worked hard!"
Xu Wangtang took a deep look at Han Baihang and said simply: "Okay, for the sake of my family, I will spare Xue Lin's life. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. He will never return to the militia.
"
After all, he was very thoughtful. Although he agreed to let Xue Lin go, he also took a precaution. Xue Lin had many confidants in the militia, and it would be bad if he returned to the militia.
"no problem!"
Hearing Xu Wangtang's agreement, Mei Changyuan was the first to breathe a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the two of them would not be able to talk about it and start a war. Now that they are fine, they have solved a worry and can fight against the enemy together. He hurriedly said: "Mr. Xu is so righteous.
President Ding will definitely be pleased if he knows something from the spring."
Han Baihang frowned. In his opinion, it would be in his interest for Xue Lin to return to the militia. However, Mei Changyuan obviously had other thoughts and discounted what they had discussed before. He glanced at Mei Changyuan calmly.
He glanced at it and didn't say much.
It was scheduled to release Xue Lin, and Han Baihang sent soldiers to pick up Xue Lin in prison. Soon, soldiers brought over Xue Lin, who was covered in blood. Apparently, he had been punished a lot in prison. He was extremely decadent and hung low.
He looks like a dead dog.
Han Baihang frowned and glanced at Xue Lin, thinking that he would have been destroyed in prison, and it would not be worth the trouble to release him, but he still ordered: "Take him down to have a bath and bandage his wounds.
"
At this time, the gunfire outside the city became more fierce, and a soldier hurriedly ran over to report: "Report to the company commander, the bandits outside the city are attacking the city in large numbers, and the offensive is fierce!"
The hearts of everyone present could not help but beat. Han Baihang turned to look at Mei Changyuan and Xu Wangtang, and said: "I have fought with bandits. The combat power of this bandit army is no less than that of the official army. If we attack the city at all costs, the city will be afraid."
I can’t keep it!”
Xu Wangtang sneered and said: "Captain Han is too alarmist. There are 3,000 people in the city including officers and soldiers, merchant corps, militia corps and various guardians. How can we not defend the city? What a joke!"
Han Baihang sneered and said: "Soldiers are not more important than finesse. If we only compare the number of people, there are 100,000 people in the city and 60,000 men. How dare the bandits attack? One person can drown the bandits with just a spit of spit."
"That's better than letting someone else's ambition destroy your own prestige!" Xu Wangtang, with his beard and hair sprouting, slapped the table and shouted: "With me commanding the defense of the city, Yongcheng will be safe!"
"Okay, since Mr. Xu is confident in defending the city, I will listen to the advice of the city defender." Han Baihang raised his eyebrows and said.
Xu Wangtang sneered and without hesitation came up with a plan to defend the city. This plan was the result of his hard thinking and meditation. It was nothing more than mobilizing the entire city to distribute weapons and strictly guard the city walls. It was quite satisfactory.
Han Baihang laughed after hearing this and said: "Mr. Xu, Lian Po is old. It doesn't matter if you try to be strong. Don't harm the people in the city. To be disrespectful, even a squad leader in our army can come up with better tactics to defend the city.
you!"
Xu Wangtang said angrily: "What a shameless statement! When I was fighting in the army, you were still playing in the mud!"
Han Baihang was not angry and nodded: "That's right, but Mr. Xu has heard of the word "changing with each passing day". When you were on the battlefield, you still had broadswords and spears, and guns and cannons were so backward. Now, there are planes in the sky and tanks on the ground.
, the tactics of warfare are different now, we have to use old tactics to defend the city, we’d better stop struggling and simply surrender to the bandits, maybe we can save a small life!"
Xu Wangtang was so angry that he slammed the table and said: "You said that my fighting skills are backward, but I want to hear how good your fighting skills are!"
Han Baihang said confidently: "I dare not say that I am smart, but it is more than enough to defend the city with bandits. The right way is to pacify the interior first when fighting the outside world. If I defend the city, the first thing is to integrate the soldiers and horses in the city, whether they are militia groups, business groups, various
The servants of the home guard and the strong men of the armor must be unified and mixed into an army, with officers and soldiers serving as officers. At the same time, elites are selected and formed into another army as a reserve team under our unified command. The second step is to concentrate the use of machine gun firepower and select exclusively from the reserve team.
The bandits are launching a counterattack at the city gate where they have the strongest offensive. I predict that the bandits will never imagine that we dare to go out of the city to fight, and they will be caught off guard. Counterattack like this several times, and the bandits' offensive will be broken. Then we will strictly guard the city gate, as long as we hold on until tomorrow night
, the bandits will definitely retreat."
Xu Wangtang was amazed in his heart. Although he didn't want to admit it, Han Baihang's tactics were indeed extraordinary, especially the counterattack out of the city. He would never dare to do it. Comparing the two, Han Baihang's tactics were naturally better, but he had another point.
I'm worried that if Han Baihang wants to reorganize all the soldiers and horses in the city, he will use his own soldiers and horses as cannon fodder. Although it will be good to repel the bandits, it will also cost him all his capital. This kind of
You can't do things that harm yourself and others. He immediately objected: "No, it's not possible to rush into an army and fight. To be on the safe side, it's better to follow my city defense tactics."
Han Baihang sneered and said: "If we defend the city according to your tactics, our officers and soldiers will immediately break out of the city and die without staying with you."
Xu Wangtang's face darkened, he slapped the table and shouted: "Han Baihang, don't forget that you are a garrison in Yongcheng, and you have the unshirkable responsibility to defend the land and protect the people. If you dare to leave, I will go to Kaifeng to prosecute you for death in front of Governor Zhao!"
"That's better than your blind command and death!" Han Baihang was not afraid of this threat at all. If he couldn't get this command, Yongcheng would definitely fall, and he would rather be a deserter.
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Mei Changyuan hurriedly said: "What you two said is reasonable. Since we can't argue about who should take command, why not listen to me!"
Han Baihang and Xu Wangtang both looked at him suspiciously, but Mei Changyuan said calmly: "How about we draw lots."
