Chapter 189: Arrow on the string
Seeing that Mrs. Wa was smiling at her, Chen Si quickly bowed and said, "Students have met Mr. Rong in silence."
The old lady shook her head and said, "I am not a general, so I should call her old lady Mrs. Wa."
Silently smiled, "I am not an adult either. The old lady should be called the word "My words" below."
Mrs. Wa looked at him for a while and said, "My lord is indeed different from other officials..." As she said that, she laughed and said, "The Ming officials who the old woman had seen all regard the power of the official power more than anything else. It is the first time that she doesn't care like the adults."
Chen Si smiled and said, "It's not that I don't care, but I really don't have the right to pretend to behave in front of you."
Mrs. Wa shook her head and smiled, then turned sideways and said, "Please go in and use tea."
Silently smiled, "Looking at your subordinates packing things, I won't go in and cause trouble."
Mrs. Var nodded and said, "The old lady is going to the battlefield."
Chen Silently said: "I heard from the Master of the Ministry that the Grandpa and your soldiers came to Jiangnan from afar. After a few days of rest, they volunteered to fight several times."
Mrs. Wa laughed loudly and said, "We are seven thousand Buzhuang. We come here with dry food on our backs to kill the enemy and build achievements, not to live in this immortal palace and live a wealthy life."
I said quietly that this is the gap in awareness. Why do I enjoy living here? He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Zhang Butang has begun to deploy a decisive battle. The lady will not worry about no war in the future."
Mrs. Va nodded and said, "It's true that it's time to fight a war, otherwise this paradise on earth will become an eighteenth level hell." The old lady spoke very straightforwardly, making her silent face burn.
Fortunately, Aman changed his clean clothes and came out, hugged his grandmother's hand like a kitten and said, "Grandma, when will you be back?" She didn't understand what war was, and she just thought that her grandmother was going far away as usual.
Mrs. Wa caressed her head lovingly and smiled, "Aman stays here, and grandma will come to pick you up in a few days." She smiled at the silent, "Aman has told me about the past two days. The old woman admires her for being able to keep her promises to a child."
He smiled silently and said, "Aman is very sensible. I like this child very much. Please rest assured, Mrs., I will help take care of her."
Mrs. Wa said happily: "I'm relieved." She said that, patted Aman's little head and said: "You have to listen to the uncle, do you understand?"
Aman nodded obediently and said softly: "Aman can be obedient."
Chen Ji couldn't say in his heart: "This is great, my uncle is confirmed."
After Mrs. Wa left, the atmosphere in the Governor's headquarters gradually became tense, and civil and military officials from all walks of life were in a row, and meetings were held in the signing room.
Zhang Jing never shy away from silence about military secrets, and even informed him in advance if there are major meetings. On the morning of the 12th day of the twelfth lunar month, someone came to tell Chen Si that the last war would begin before the last war.
When he came to the front yard, he saw three steps and five steps in the mansion. Outside the signing room, there were densely packed with governors' personal soldiers, isolated all the idle people five feet away to ensure that the meeting inside was not eavesdropped on by anyone.
The silence that was always unimpeded by the personal soldiers was also stopped by the personal soldiers until the captain came over and said, "Mr. Shen is a participant." Then he made a way out and closed it suddenly after he passed. The silence was not nervous at all... because it was not him who was fighting... but when the situation shocked, he really jumped up.
When he entered the signing room, he saw the room full of Zhejiang officials. He saw Tang Shunzhi, Tan Lun and other soldiers, and also saw Lu Tong, Tang Kekuan, Yu Dayou and other generals, as well as Qi Jiguang, who was accompanying the last seat. In addition to the two big bosses Zhang Jing and Li Tianchong, the main officials who fought against the Japanese had arrived.
The military supervisor Zhao Wenhua and the inspector Hu Zongxian were also among them.
Everyone here has seen and talked to each other silently, and has the friendship of guarding the city side by side with many people. Therefore, as soon as he came in, everyone nodded and smiled at him... The signing room is a key military site in a province, so naturally it cannot be as noisy as the vegetable market.
Silently clasped his fists to the crowd, and under the guidance of the Secretary of the Mansion, he sat in a very high position but not in the same row as the civil and military officials.
Shortly after he sat down, he heard three drums, and the officials stood up one after another, and heard someone singing, "The Governor is here."
Amid the sound of "Welcoming to the master of the tribe," Zhang Jing, a military-defense anti-Japanese governor, turned out from behind the screen and sat down directly after the big case in the hall. He was also the governor of Zhejiang Li Tianchong, who sat down in the first place in the left.
Zhang Jing's eyes slowly swept across everyone present, especially on Zhao Wenhua's face for a long time. Thinking of the hard work he had put in over the past year and the grievances he suffered were finally revealed at this moment, Governor Zhang's eyes were a little wet. Zhang Jing took a deep breath and said, "My colleagues, please sit down."
When everyone sat down, his loud voice continued to sound: "Today we are called, the purpose is self-evident. Now time is victory. I will tell you directly that after half a year of arrangement, all the troops have been ready and arrived at the designated location in batches. The Japanese/pirates also retreated to our retreat, and the main force left the island and occupied the entrenched generation in Zhelin and Chuanshawa."
As he said that, he waved his hand and said, "Go to the map."
Then two ministers carried a huge map of Suzhou and Hangzhou and placed it behind the master of the ministry.
Zhang Jing got up and picked up a short bamboo stick, pointed to the two black dots on the east side of the map and said, "This is Zhelin, the thief's nest in Chuanshawa. Among them, Chuanshawa is more than 15,000 people from the bandit chief Wang Zhi, and Tuolin to the south is more than 10,000 people from Xu Hai. The two are only dozens of miles apart, guarding the horns and echoing each other."
"Who will take action against the Lord Master of the Ministry first?" At this time, Zhao Wenhua must be the one who dares to speak.
Zhang Jing sneered: "It is not a matter of trouble for the supervisor. The officers and generals personally led Jiaxing, Hangzhou, and Guangxi soldiers to enter Songjiang in large numbers and acted to suppress Wang Zhi. When Xu Hai and others heard that Jiahang troops were transferred to Songjiang, they would think that Jiahang was empty and would definitely lead their troops to break into Jiashan and take the opportunity to rob Jiahang."
Zhao Wenhua jumped up as soon as he heard this and said, "I said to Lord Zhang, although I have been pushing you very hard, I have not let you give up and provoke two major Japanese pirates at once." He also knew that the Japanese pirates were powerful, and with the current strength of the Ming army, it was impossible to deal with them at the same time.
"Mr. Supervisor, don't be excited, let me break it up for you." Zhang Jing turned his face and stopped looking at the hateful face: "Although Wang Zhi and Xu Hai are both leaders of the great Japanese, they are essentially different. Although Wang Zhi also robbed, he is a businessman in his bones. Although Xu Hai also smuggled, he is a real robber. So Wang Zhi will take into account his army and calculate the gains and losses of the cost. But Xu Hai will not. When he sees the vacancy, he will definitely pounce on him like a hungry wolf."
Zhao Wenhua was still worried, "If Xu Hai does not attack Jiahang, but attacks Wang Zhi from the front and back, wouldn't that master of the government be able to steal chickens and lose rice?"
Zhang Jing sneered and said, "Impossible!" and then broke it up for him: "The relationship between these two bandit chiefs is quite subtle. Xu Hai's uncle Xu Qianxue was once a partner of Wang Zhi, and Xu Hai was brought into the industry by his uncle. Therefore, Wang Zhi has always been to Xu Hai for the rest of his life, and often shouted: 'Little monk, little monk.'" It caused everyone to laugh... But this is definitely not a joke by Governor Zhang, but it is true, because before Xu Hai went into the sea, he used to be a monk who rang a bell in Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou. His Dharma name was Pujing, also known as Mingshan Monk.
But Xu Hai is now a prince with tens of thousands of people under his command. When calling him this, even the best temper will be annoyed, let alone the irritable and arrogant General of Tianchai Pinghai? So Zhang Jing said confidently: "I dare to assert that if Xu Hai is attacked, Wang Zhi will probably go to rescue him. But if Wang Zhi is attacked, Xu Hai will definitely gloat."
Zhao Wenhua sneered again: "The adults always say that Xu Hai is so powerful. Doesn't he even understand the principle of losing his lips and cold teeth?"
"I won't lead a snake out of the hole?" Zhang Jing laughed and said, "Besides, Lord Zhao thought that for half a year, I have restrained my subordinates and refused to fight for the sake of not allowing them to fight?" As he said, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Justices and pirates used bamboo sticks to point out the two black dots, and glared at them: "The Japanese/pirates dare to entrench ashore, which means they have firmly believed that our army is afraid of the enemy and is afraid of fighting, and no longer takes our army seriously." After months of aggrievance, he finally vomited out today. Zhang Jing smiled very happily, and he was a little ignorant.
After laughing, he ignored Zhao Wenhua and said, "All the generals obey orders!"
The generals stood up and heard the master of the ministry send him: "General Yu, I will lead you 5,000 soldiers from the headquarters to supervise 2,000 Yongshun local troops to enter the city of Jiashan." As he said that, he glanced at the general he didn't like, and said: "You must pay attention to keeping the secret and enter the city at midnight. As soon as you arrive in the city, martial law is immediately imposed, and no news is allowed to be passed out of the city. When the Japanese/pirates pass Jiashan, you must not expose your behavior. But if the Japanese/pirates turn around and return east, they will immediately cut off their retreat! They must keep them at all costs."
Yu Dayou bowed his order and asked loudly: "I dare to ask, what if the Japanese/pirates did not turn around?"
"Let's talk about it later." Zhang Jing said lightly, and looked at his beloved general Lu Tong and said, "Shengyuan, you will lead two thousand Baojing troops and five thousand troops to set up an ambush at Shuangxi Bridge in the east of the city to block the enemy in Shitang Bay. In order to win this battle, you must never let the Japanese/pirates go south to Hangzhou."
