At dawn, General Wu Qing got the news. After reading the letter, he closed it, put it aside, and frowned in thought. What he was thinking about was whether to report such news to Liu Yong this time. Honestly, he should have done this, but he didn't want to disturb Liu Yong. After all, he is also a general, although this time it is Liu Yong's personal expedition, but as a general, he can't be inactive, and he has to consult Liu Yong for everything. Otherwise, what else does Liu Yong want him to do?

General Wu Qing thought about a meal for a while, and finally decided not to tell Liu Yong this information. Since he didn't tell Liu Yong, then he would have to make his own decisions. In fact, as a general, he has such rights.

In fact, this matter is also very simple, isn't there 120,000 Tatar slave troops in Zhangzhou City? Then wouldn't it be okay to match Cao Wen with an army of the same number!

To put it simply, now Cao Wen is 50,000 horses, and there are 70,000 horses short of those 120,000 horses, and now the whole front is too long, and troops are needed everywhere. Therefore, if you want to transfer these 70,000 horses, General Wu Qing really feels that it is difficult for Yo Xi.

If you want to say that there are 230,000 people, it is still very convenient for General Wu Qing to mobilize. But the 70,000 people are a little bit difficult.

So what to do about it? General Wu Qing was worried in his heart.

In the end, he thought in his heart that there was only one trick if he couldn't do it, and that was to win more with less.

Ay! What a trick this is! But it's not impossible, after all, the equipment of the Han army is much better than that of the Tatar army. It's not impossible to win more with less.

Thinking of this, General Wu Qing still felt that General Cao Wen should come and discuss it together. So, he called someone to find General Cao Wen.

General Cao Wen got the military order, and immediately took two soldiers and set off on war horses. He left the Flying Condor in the barracks, and prepared beef jerky and wine for him.

It only took three and a half hours for General Cao Wen and his two soldiers to run from the camp to Anzhou City. Seeing General Wu Qing, he first bowed down, and then sat down according to General Wu Qing's wishes.

General Cao Wen had a habit of fighting, and he didn't like to use a delegated adjutant general, so General Wu Qing did not equip him with a deputy. However, he still has two lieutenants by his side. He was gone, and the camp was presided over by the two lieutenants.

I asked the general to see that General Cao Wen was seated, so he asked, "General Cao Wen, it turns out that there are so many garrisons in that Zhangzhou City!" ”

General Cao Wen nodded and said, "That's right, General, I asked a good friend to sneak into the city to investigate." The situation is indeed very serious! ”

When General Wu Qing heard General Cao Wen's words, he smiled and said, "It's just that there are more garrisons, and it's not serious." ”

"It's the Great General." General Cao Wen nodded and said.

General Wu Qing then asked: "General Cao Wen, you only mentioned the situation of Zhang Zhoucheng in your letter, but you didn't ask General Ben for reinforcements, do you have any thoughts in General Cao Wen's heart?" ”

General Cao Wen listened to General Wu Qing's words, and said: "Back to General Hui, the last general has no ideas. ”

"Then why don't you ask General Ben for more troops?" General Wu Qing asked.

Then General Cao Wen said: "General, the last general thinks like this, in fact, the last general's heart wants the general to increase the number of troops for the last general, and the reason why the last general didn't say it is also to see what the general means." The general has his own plans. ”

"Plotting? Hehe. General Ben is now teaching you General Cao Wen to come, and he really wants to plan it. Wu Qing said with a smile.

"Please also ask the general to make it clear." General Cao Wen said.

General Wu Qing said: "General Cao Wen, I'm at a loss now!" ”

"General?" Then General Cao Wen looked at General Wu Qing and asked.

General Wu Qing said: "General Cao Wen, let's be honest with you, General Ben has no way to match you with the same number of garrisons as in Zhangzhou City now." ”

Listening to General Wu Qing's words, General Cao Wen nodded. In fact, he could have guessed it a long time ago. He knew that now this front-line division had passed the scene, and the army on his side, the main army, was still south of the Tianjiang River, and it had not yet been fully transferred.

Although the main attack is now in the north, once this place is breached, the Han army will cross the river along the entire Tianjiang River and carry out a full-scale siege of the Tatar army.

Therefore, on the western front, the size of the Han army's army is still tight. They are not like the Tatar army, here is the hinterland of their garrison to the east, and it is very convenient to send troops.

General Wu Qing continued: "General Cao Wen, I can only give you another 30,000 people at most. It's 80,000 people, are you sure? ”

Listened to the words of General Wu Qing. General Cao Wen thought for a while, nodded and said, "General, I will do my best." ”

General Wu Qing heard Cao Wen's affirmative answer, and felt a little relieved. But the size of the current army still can't match the garrison of the Tatar army in Zhangzhou City. Therefore, he also had to work out a set of siege plans with General Cao Wen, and try to get rid of the disadvantage of numbers as much as possible.

So, General Wu Qing asked, "General Cao Wen, how are you going to attack?" ”

Cao Wen thought for a moment and said, "The last general will definitely formulate a combat plan according to the current situation. The last general felt that although the garrison of the Tatar army in Zhangzhou City had 120,000. However, the Tatar army is powerful cavalry, as long as our army breaks through the city, in the alleys, on the streets, the cavalry of the Tatar army will not be able to exert force. And our musketeers were able to take advantage of their street fighting. , so that the last general thinks that the Tatar army will retreat. The last general thought that the purpose of our army was to capture the city, not to annihilate the 120,000 Tatar army. ”

Listening to General Cao Wen's words, General Wu Qing nodded and said, "Okay, General Cao Wen is really superior in wisdom. General Ben couldn't agree more with your view. Then do what you think! ”

General Cao Wen arched his hand and said, "Yes, General." ”

General Wu Qing then said: "General Cao Wen, General Ben is transferring 30,000 people from this Anzhou City to you. You must know that in this way, my Anzhou City will become an empty city. ”

"It's the Great General." General Cao Wen said.

General Wu Qing continued: "General Cao Wen, if you can't capture that Zhangzhou City, or if you are defeated and attract the Tarnu army to attack, then my Anzhou City will not be protected." ”

General Cao Wen said: "General, please rest assured, this will not happen." ”
