Wu Zheng also knew in his heart that this matter could not be put on the table and could not be forced.

At the same time, Wu Zheng also confirmed his guess in his heart, that is, Duoduo was already paving the way for the upcoming change.

In other words, even if he launched an attack halfway, he would be able to justify himself, using the excuse that Wu Zheng was not taking ordinary soldiers and their families.

To Wu Zheng's surprise, Duoduo also took the opportunity to make a request.

It's called coming and not being rude.

Duoduo's request was that the Pinggang cottage needed to reduce the garrison army to 8,000 within half a month.

This made Wu Zheng and the courtiers unable to figure it out, and they couldn't guess Duoduo's intentions.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess the intention on the surface, Duoduo wants to go south, and he has to take into account that Shaoxing Mansion will not be attacked by the Ming army of Pinggang Cottage, so it will be very difficult for the number of Qing troops stationed in Shaoxing Mansion.

Now in addition to the cavalry brought by Wu Zheng, there are still 13,000 or 4,000 people in Pinggang Cottage (counting the nearly 10,000 Ming troops brought by the imperial court when they were transferred in).

According to this figure, Duoduo left at least the corresponding Qing army, or even more, to ensure the defense of Shaoxing Mansion.

This has nothing to do with an armistice treaty, in fact, both sides know that it can be broken at any time because of a trivial matter.

The key is who destroys it first.

Therefore, the military pressure still existed, and Duoduo had to consider whether he could bring more troops south.

forced the Ming army to reduce the number of troops stationed in Pinggangshan, so that Duoduo could at least bring 10,000 more people south.

The purpose is obvious, but here's the problem.

If Duoduo was only for this purpose, then it would be impossible for him to launch a halfway attack on Wu Zheng to escort the imperial court in.

Because once an attack is launched, this request is simply like a piece of nonsense, and when the time comes, there will be a fight, maybe the imperial court and even Wu Zheng will fall into the hands of the Qing army, what is this nonsense?

Even if Wu Zheng led his troops to break through by luck, everyone could think that Wu Zheng would definitely retaliate, how could he keep such a promise, and the Qing army broke the promise first.

What the purpose of this request was for so many priests, no one could guess.

In the end, Wu Zhengli agreed to Duoduo's request, but once again counter-proposed that according to the upper limit of 8,000 people, it was necessary to withdraw 5 or 6,000 people, and it was necessary to redeploy the defense of Pinggang Cottage, which would take time, and extended the agreement from half a month to one month.

Wu Zheng's basis is that if Duoduo has a conspiracy, then one month is enough time for the Ming army to be fully prepared, that is, even if a war breaks out, the strength of Pinggang Shanzhai within a month can still be maintained as it is.

In this month, no matter how slow and slow the march was, the imperial court had already arrived at Yingtianfu.

And if Duoduo repented of attacking halfway, he would not have to fulfill his promise to cut troops.

Then the people of Pinggang Cottage defense strength was reversed, in fact, there is no need to push back, when the Ming army brought by the imperial court did not enter Pinggang Cottage, four or five thousand people in the cottage can still be effectively defended.

Of course, the premise is that there are enough backup soldiers, so signed on this point, Wu Zheng proposed that the men among the cottage people should be used as the Ming army, at least two or three thousand people could be pretended, which can fully meet the requirements put forward by Duoduo, that is, the number of Ming troops who remained in the end still exceeded the number required by Duoduo, reaching more than 10,000 people.

The imperial court unanimously agreed with Wu Zheng's statement and agreed to Duoduo's request.

……。

As soon as Wu Zheng returned home, he was blocked by Wu Xiaomei.

With Wu Zheng's intimate action of wiping the redness and swelling of mosquito bites for her yesterday, the former brother and sister relationship between the two quickly replied, clearing the embarrassment between the two due to Daddy Wu's identity exposed.

In fact, the identity does not have the factors that destroy the brother-sister relationship between the two for more than ten years, especially this kind of identity that needs to be traced back to 200 years.

In the final analysis, even if it is declared in the world, I am afraid that not many people will admit it, let alone whether this identity can be traced to the roots.

How can you convince the people if they are just the words of one family?

Therefore, it is not the identity gap that causes the embarrassment of the two, at least not the point.

The point is that the two suddenly realized that the two parties are not brothers and sisters.

To be precise, the name brother and sister are actually master and servant, even if Wu Zheng is unwilling to admit it, as long as his father admits it, he has to admit it.

The son inherits the father's business, and it is also said that the dragon gives birth to the dragon and the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix and the mouse son hits the hole, the father is the minister, and the son is the minister.

When every founding king ascends the throne, the first thing he does is to posthumously crown his father and ancestors, and this is the truth.

The Han people pay attention to inheritance and righteousness.

It was this kind of nondescript relationship that caused the embarrassment that disappeared because Wu Zheng inadvertently stretched out his hand to wipe it.

Wu Xiaomei is still Wu Xiaomei, and Wu Zheng is still Wu Zheng.

And today, a smile reappeared on Wu Xiaomei's face.

"Brother, my father's illness is showing signs of improvement, and the sores on his back are slowly shrinking."

Wu Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked anxiously, "Has the medical worker confirmed it?" ”

"It was confirmed by the medical workers, and they said that as long as it goes on like this, supplemented by medicine, the condition can be controlled in half a month at most."

Wu Zheng was inexplicably surprised, his method of messing around really worked?

Stretching out his hand to pull Wu Xiaomei, the two rushed into the house.

Zhou Simin was feeding porridge to Father Wu, and there were three or four medical workers standing next to him.

Seeing Wu Zheng coming in, the medical workers bowed in unison, "I've seen Master Hou." ”

Wu Zheng waved his hand and said, "No courtesy." What is my father's condition? ”

A clever medical worker hurriedly praised: "Hou Ye is really a god, a casual method, it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, little admiration!" ”

The rest of the people chimed in.

Wu Zheng was happy in his heart, and he was flattered like this, "When will my father's illness be cured?" ”

"Back to the waiting, the illness is like a thread, the old man has been sick for more than a month, and his skin will heal, at least it will take a corresponding time, this ...... I can't be in a hurry, I hope you will wait quietly. ”

"Is it possible to repeat that?"

"This ...... I don't think so, a few small people have already discussed, as long as the diet is controlled, supplemented by the medicine that purifies the heart and sepsis, the old man will definitely recover as before. ”

"Okay." Wu Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then it's up to you, on the day my father recovers, this official will definitely have a heavy reward." ”

Turning his head, Wu Zheng said: "Come on, each reward a hundred taels!" ”

When several medical workers heard this, they waved their hands again and again and refused: "It's over, it's over!" ”

After that, it means that the reward is heavy.

The reward of one hundred taels is indeed a generous amount in this era.

A county order of a large county with seven grades is only seventy or eighty taels a year.

But Wu Zheng was in a very good mood at this time, and he decided to set up a plan to deal with Duoduo with the golden cicada, Wu Zheng took a big risk, saying that it was an exaggeration to say that nine deaths and one life were lost, but the cavalry led by him lost three or four percent, which was almost certain, or even more.

And the battlefield has no eyes, and in this kind of casualty battle, it is difficult for the commander to get comprehensive protection.
