The variables of war are really unpredictable, and plans can never change quickly.

Fang Yuanting stroked his beard and was silent, thinking that he was really in trouble. Now this preparation can be regarded as not up or down, if you want to go, the people of the whole city will be all thrown here, and then return to the solid city defense of Tingzhou, and it will be difficult to fight back and forth in the future, and once Tingzhou is lost, Fujian will be completely exposed to the iron hooves of the Qing army. If you want to keep it, how can you keep it with only 5,000 people, even if you add Jiang Yong's less than 1,000 people? He peeked at Jiang Yong, and sighed in his heart, "Alas, you still don't look down on this foundation, but with such a little foundation, it is difficult to protect it now!" ”

Jiang Yong's fool fell on the sand table, starting from Ruijin, to Tingzhou City, these more than 30 kilometers of road, nearly 20 kilometers are completely mountain roads, it is not easy for the brigade to march, the intersection of the mountain is a small town called the ancient city, and then down is the mountain road, after the mountain is not a few miles away from Tingzhou! These mountains have always been the boundary between the Qing army in Ganzhou and the Ming army in Tingzhou.

"Looks like that's all it takes!" Jiang Yong made up his mind, and tried his best to put a smile full of indifference on his face, "Father, Uncle Fang, I don't think it's a big deal, isn't it just five or six days, I think it's about the same, you see that I plan to take my battalion to the ancient castle immediately, and guard the main road into the mountain, now the Qing army in Ruijin is only more than 5,000 people, they don't have the ability to fight over, I can easily hold on to them, and then when the enemy army arrives, I think I can hold on first, and then carry out a blocking battle in the mountains behind, I guess five or six days isn't a big deal, what do you think? ”

Jiang Zhengxi looked at the authenticity of the indifferent smile on his son's face with some suspicion, and secretly said in his heart: "I don't know who made him so bold, with a thousand soldiers against the enemy 5,000 is still undefeated, and in the future, when the enemy's 100,000 army arrives later, he can hold it for a few days, it's really hard to believe!" He looked at the sand table and was silent. I was worried that my son would be difficult to keep, and I was worried that if the son he had just found was lost again, he would probably only die! In his heart, he only wanted the resourceful Fang Yuanting to think of a better way, so he looked at Fang Yuanting, who was silent on the side, as if asking for help.

Fang Yuanting didn't speak, and he couldn't speak at this time. In his point of view, Jiang Yong went to guard the ancient castle and whether he could defend it or not, it was more than lucky. But now, this is the only way not to do it, five or six days, only five or six days of work, you can re-deploy the defense of Tingzhou, once completed, the 30,000 soldiers and horses refused to defend Tingzhou City, although it can not be said that it is safe, at least there is still a fight.

He raised his head and glanced at Jiang Zhengxi, just this glance made him shake a little, should he think of another way, or send those recruits to guard the ancient castle? But soon he abandoned this idea again, and the five thousand recruits went in vain, for fear that all their five thousand lives would be lost there, and even the five thousand soldiers and horses of the enemy's vanguard would not be able to stop them.

Wang Deren, the leading general of the enemy's vanguard, had heard that the most courageous people who attacked the city last time he came were also his subordinates, and it was rumored that most of them were subordinates of the intruding army, not only the military discipline was better than that of other Qing troops, but also the combat power was higher, so the army of the tiger and wolf was difficult to stop with 5,000 recruits. Thinking of this, his eyes looked at Jiang Yong firmly, what he wanted to know was Jiang Yong, whether he was just a momentary courage or if he was really sure.

Jiang Yong saw Fang Yuanting coming over, and he also looked at him firmly and nodded.

Fang Yuanting knew that the current time was extremely precious, and he couldn't delay it any longer. "Brother Jiang, I think let Yong'er go, you think the Shenzhou army is less than 10,000 people, and it is against the elite 100,000 Qing troops in Jiangnan, their combat power cannot be underestimated, I think you can rest assured."

Even though Jiang Zhengxi hoped that there would be some miracles, he was used to seeing the bloody rain, and he naturally understood how this miracle could appear so easily! He thought that Fang Yuanting had not only seen through the situation in front of him, but also seen through what he was thinking, so how much credibility was there in his words? Or are you just comforting yourself?

In desperation, Jiang Zhengxi nodded and said: "That's the case, Yong'er, you can go, transfer a few 'Xiaofei Divine Crossbows' from the city defense for your father, and then assign a hundred masters among the guards in my house to accompany you, and then transport the supply arrows to you." ”

Jiang Yong knows that an army like the Shenzhou Army fights for supplies, as long as the food and ammunition are sufficient, let alone 5,000 Qing soldiers, even in the face of 100,000 Qing soldiers, he is not afraid: "This is very good, it is better to transfer me more archers, and the other is mainly supplies, the supply of the Shenzhou Army will arrive in the next two days, once it is transported here, it must be sent over the mountain as soon as possible...... I won't stay with my father and Uncle Fang, I have to hurry back to the camp to prepare for the war! ”

Jiang Zhengxi sighed in his heart, knowing that it was useless to talk more at this time, so he had to say: "Yong'er, be careful yourself, in case you can't do anything, don't force it, quickly return to Tingzhou City, and we will defend it together." ”

Jiang Yong didn't say anything more, nodded slightly, gave a solemn military salute to the two old men, turned around and ran towards the way he came.

As soon as he left, Jiang Zhengxi cleaned up his mood and immediately called his heralds around, and the entire General Military Mansion was busy in an instant.

As soon as he returned to the battalion, Jiang Yong immediately wrote the plan into a secret letter in the shape of five strokes, asking the communication platoon to immediately contact the military headquarters of the Shenzhou Army now stationed in Yanping, and at the same time order the joint battalion to prepare for the opening. The entire camp had only started to move for a few minutes, and the two hundred archers sent by Jiang Zhengxi to help outside, one hundred general soldiers, and eight "Divine Crossbows" were already in place.

Jiang Yong had two sighs in his heart, one was that his father was good at governing the army, and his subordinates were very strong, and the other was that his father was still a beloved son, and even his most elite guards were sent. What surprised him the most was that Fang Bizheng also came panting, his face was covered with sweat, and the fan stuck in the back of his neck had not been put down.

Jiang Yong was surprised: "Brother Fang, we are going to fight, but why are you here!" ”

"Alas! Don't say so much, get me a blade, my father just asked someone to come home to inform me, asking me to come to the camp to help you," and then stopped Jiang Yong, who was about to speak, and said: "If you come, you will be safe, you will prepare a guy for me is ......"

In desperation, Jiang Yong had no choice but to ask the guards to take him to the baggage platoon to receive the equipment, but he only took two steps and turned back and said: "Oh, I forgot to tell you, Caiyu asked me to give you a word, she was born as a member of your Jiang family, and died as a ghost of your Jiang family, you can watch it!" Jiang Yong, who ignored his mouth and was stunned into an "O" shape, walked away by himself.
