Chapter 117 The Battle of Mianzhu (Part 1)

Reinforcements regain control of Mianzhu, organized fire extinguishing, and maintained order in the city.

After about half an hour, under the superb medical skills of the military doctor, Zhang Ji, Le Lin and others woke up one after another.

"Three, how about it?"

Zhang Rui walked quickly to the bed and bent down to look at Zhang Ji, who was wrapped in thin white cloth.

"Dad!" When Zhang Ji saw Zhang Rui, his eyes were filled with tears and he wanted to get up, but his body hurt so much.

Zhang Rui reached out to wipe away the tears from his son's face and choked and said, "Dad is late."

When he heard the sergeant say that Zhang Ji's life was hanging on the line, Zhang Rui was crazy and asked the military doctor to rescue him no matter what.

Until Zhang Ji woke up, the heart hanging in Zhang Rui completely relaxed.

"Recover your wounds well, Dad will avenge you."

Zhang Rui gently patted Zhang Ji on the shoulder and promised him.

Zhang Ji nodded and said he knew it. He seemed to have said too much. He was a little tired. He asked Zhang Rui to go and then closed his eyes and went to bed.

Zhang Rui left the room and went to another room to visit Lelin who woke up.

...

Five miles away from the East City, the soldiers in the Song army camp were dejected.

Yes, Mianzhu was about to fall into their hands, but Cheng Yaojin came out halfway.

Not only did he give up this city that was within his reach, but he also lost his troops and generals.

"Young Master, don't be angry, eat something."

Shi Tou entered the tent with delicious food. Seeing Gu Tingye walking around the tent with a dark face, he advised.

Gu Tingye stopped, looked at Shi Tou and put food on the table one by one, and sighed: "Stone, the grain transport team attacks us from time to time, causing great trouble to us. Now we have the opportunity to take Mianzhu, but..."

When Gu Tingye thought of this, he was unwilling to give up!

Shi Tou set up the meal, stood up and looked at him, and said, "Young Master, Zhang Ji is lucky this time. Next time Shi Tou killed him personally, so you can let out a sigh of anger."

"Shitou, let's have a meal if you listen to Shitou's persuasion." After hearing Shitou's persuasion, Gu Tingye's anger subsided and his appetite improved.

Gu Tingye sat on a chair, ate the delicious food on the table under the servitude of the stone.

...

The next morning, Gu Tingye wrote a letter of war for the soldiers to send them to Mianzhu City.

The general content of the letter is that the two sides make an appointment for a time and fight somewhere to determine life and death.

When Zhang Rui received this letter of war, he immediately summoned the generals to discuss matters.

Also, he did not make things difficult for the soldiers who sent the letter, but instead asked someone to call him and later brought the results of the discussion to Gu Tingye.

"Lord, let's do it with the Dog Rid Song Jun!"

A big and thick man jumped out and spoke up to fight the Song army.

As soon as this man opened his mouth, he mostly spoke out and agreed.

Zhang Rui was moved, but hesitated.

First of all, most of the 30,000 people I brought were forced to recruit civilian militias and asked them to fight against these Song troops that had been through the battlefield. I am afraid that...

Zhang Rui dared not think or do so.

However, if you don’t fight, the food consumed by these 30,000 people every day is an astronomical figure.

The most important thing is that when we set out, we only brought two months of food and grass. The food and grass for these two months were still fought in the east and west. Once we finished eating, we would go hungry.

Maybe someone asked, isn’t there food and grass in Mianzhu City? Why isn’t it enough?

If this person was in front of Zhang Rui, he would have slashed this person with one knife.

Let me tell you that all men under the age of fifteen or sixty in Mianzhu City are dead.

In addition, as long as the city can eat, the rebels who had previously defended the city could eat completely.

If Zhang Rui hadn't led his troops to arrive and pulled out the food and grass from the army and let the only elderly, weak, women and children in the city eat, he would have starved to death long ago.

The generals looked at Zhang Rui with frown and guessed whether they would be able to fight?

No one spoke in the room, just looking at Zhang Rui dryly.

"beat!"

Taking advantage of the fact that there are too many soldiers and enough food and grass, we will fight the Song army.

This is the result obtained by Zhang Rui through pros and cons analysis.

As the word "table" came out, the generals were extremely excited and petitioned to be pioneers.

Zhang Rui smiled, stretched out his hands, and signaled everyone to calm down.

"It's definitely a fight, but how to fight? How to fight? Let's talk about it."

After Zhang Rui finished speaking, he looked at everyone and asked them to express their thoughts.

Everyone let the people around him talk to each other, but they were taciturn.

These people looked at each other with awkward face. They said they wanted to fight, but now there is no one who has given advice.

Zhang Rui saw their performance one by one, and was a little disappointed and understood.

After all, these people are all rough people, so it is okay to let them charge in battle and kill people. Once he is asked to give advice, each one will be stupider than the other.

Of course, Zhang Rui is not so strong either?

Although I have read a lot of books, I have only a few understandings, especially military books. Although I know the meaning of the book, I still don’t seek much understanding.

"well!"

Zhang Rui sighed, no matter who has someone beside him who gives advice, he will not be so passive.

"Lord, we will have a plan at the end, which will allow our army to defeat the Song army."

It was the man before, and this man said proudly.

"Oh!" Zhang Rui looked at the man curiously and urged: "General He, speak quickly!"

Everyone also urged General He to speak out quickly.

General He smiled and told everyone about this peerless plan in his heart.

They went from curiosity at the beginning to disappointment.

The plan is not good! It is not bad either!

His meaning is to divide the troops into two groups, one to face the enemy head-on, and the other to celebrate in advance.

When our side was in a match with the Song army, the ambush suddenly attacked the Song army's flanks, and in this way, they might win.

Zhang Rui thought about it and said that since there was no other good way, he used this strategy.

Then Zhang Rui called the soldiers of the Song army and asked him to return to the camp, telling Gu Tingye that Zhang Rui agreed to fight.

Time and place are determined by him.

When Gu Tingye received the news, he immediately agreed, and called for a battle that would determine the life and death of both sides.
