The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 578
"The British guy seems to want to avenge the last time. I heard that last time my brother led the second army and beat the British hard." Bai Mu looked at Yue Pengju and said.

But Yue Pengju shook his head and said: "That battle was an encounter, and at that time the army had not yet been reorganized, so many brothers died. This incident has always been a knot in my heart. I always wanted to avenge those brothers who died in battle. It's a pity that After the defeat of the British mercenaries, they hid behind the Zheng family and did not show their faces. In addition, I want to guard Hangzhou, so the main force cannot move lightly, so..."

Seeing Yue Pengju's solemn expression, Bai Mu and Chu Yunfei looked at each other, and said murderously: "Brother Yue, don't worry. This time our three armies are definitely enough to avenge those brothers who died in battle. Since the British dared to come Zhongzhou Continent, then let’s let them come and go, and let them know that no place in this world dares to set foot.”

"Brother Yue, you are familiar with the situation on the front line. Before, we were short of troops. Now that we have three armies, how do you think we should fight?" Chu Yunfei asked in a deep voice.

Although nominally their three armies are under the command of Jiangnan Governor Hu Zongxian.But Jiang Chuan also made it clear before they came.Hu Zongxian is mainly responsible for the restoration and governance of the local order after the recovery, as well as the logistics supply of the army.

As for the specific tactics, the three army commanders discussed it, and finally Yue Pengju, the commander of the second army, made the decision.

After all, Yue Pengju has been on the front line and is familiar with the situation.Moreover, his troops have fought against the Zheng family's army, so the decision maker must be him.

In addition, Yue Pengju has enough qualifications, is calm and decisive, and has more combat experience than the two of them, so Bai Mu and Chu Yunfei are also convinced.

Hearing this, Bai Mu also looked at Yue Pengju.

Regarding this point, Yue Pengju had already thought about it.

He originally thought that only the first army would come, so the tactics he prepared were arranged according to the two armies.

But now that there are three armies, the number of troops that can be used has suddenly increased by one-third, and the space it can play is naturally greater.

"Two, come and see." Yue Pengju said hello, and brought the two of them to a huge southeast map.

"This is Hangzhou, and this is Wenzhou. After passing Wenzhou, you will arrive at the territory of the Zheng family army. And along this road, the first big city you encounter is Jianning City. This is Zheng Zhilong's hometown. Zheng Zhilong's mother is Live here. And the granaries and horse farms we robbed last time are all near Jianning City." Yue Pengju pointed to the map and said in a deep voice.

"Could it be that after what happened last time, Zheng Zhilong still rest assured that his old mother lives in Jianning City?" Chu Yunfei asked in a deep voice.

"According to intelligence, Zheng Zhilong wanted to move his old mother to Fuzhou City after our last revenge action. But Mother Zheng was very stubborn and didn't want to move her home at all. She said that even if she was going to die, she would die in Jianning City. Zheng Zhilong He is a dutiful son, but he couldn't hold back his old mother, so he had to compromise. In the end, another 3 people were sent to strengthen Jianning City's defenders, and now Jianning City has a total of [-] defenders." Yue Pengju said.

Both Bai Mu and Chu Yunfei listened carefully.

Yue Pengju pointed to the two places around Jianning City and said: "The horse farm and granary we robbed last time, Zheng Zhilong was furious, cut off the two guards, and sent 1 horses each to guard here. .It also means to defend Jianning City."

Bai Mu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where did these troops come from?"

"They were all transferred from Fuzhou City. Fuzhou is the headquarters of the Zheng family, and the guards are the strongest. However, after these troops were transferred, there were only about [-] defenders left in Fuzhou. They were also stationed in Fuzhou City. and the other two barracks."

Yue Pengju understood Bai Mu's meaning and said in detail.

"That is to say, the defenders of Fuzhou City are about [-] to [-]?" Bai Mu asked thoughtfully.

"That's right. Although there are [-] defenders, they are all on duty. It is impossible to defend them all at the same time." Yue Pengju nodded.

Bai Mu chuckled, and suddenly said, "You two, I have a bold idea."

Yue Pengju and Chu Yunfei looked at each other, and they both saw smiles in each other's eyes. Obviously, the three of them wanted to go together.

Half an hour later, a freshly baked battle plan was placed in front of the three of them.

After the three of them read the battle plan in turn, they added some details. Yue Pengju said in a deep voice:
"Let the troops rest for three days, and the combat plan will not be announced for the time being, and will be announced on the last day. And the ship delivering logistical supplies and ammunition should arrive tomorrow, so that the troops can carry enough weapons and ammunition this time. The action requires us to act quickly, so it is estimated that we will not be able to get supplies in a short time."

"Besides, we have to guard against the Zheng family's spies around us in the past few days. Anyone who catches suspicious people will be arrested first." Bai Mu added.

Yue Pengju said: "Don't worry about this. People from Heibingtai have eyeliners around the barracks and even in Hangzhou City. Once suspicious people are found, they will be arrested and interrogated immediately. In addition, smoking will be quit near the barracks and docks. Hard to get close."

"That's good, Commander Yue, let's go back and prepare first." Bai Mu and Chu Yunfei bid farewell.

…………

Fuzhou City, inside Zheng Zhilong's mansion.

Zheng Zhilong proclaimed himself the guardian general of Fuzhou, so the huge "Guardian General" mansion is written on the plaque of the mansion.

Zheng Zhilong is less than 50 years old now, with a medium fat body, and his dark complexion caused by long-term drifting in the sea makes him look like a rich man in business instead of a tycoon.

At this time, in his public room, sitting across from him was a foreigner in a tuxedo with a high nose and deep eyes, looking at Zheng Zhilong with a displeased expression on his face.

"General Zheng, the imperial reinforcements have arrived this time. They are here to avenge you last time. Now is a very good time. The enemy has only one army in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are more than 1 people. Four of us With the army of the British Empire backing you up, what else do you have to worry about?"

The foreigner's tone was questioning, obviously dissatisfied with Zheng Zhilong.

"Mr. David, this matter is very important. Let me discuss it carefully. Jiang Chuan is not easy to mess with. He has sharp army weapons and extraordinary combat effectiveness. I suffered a big loss last time. We can't make the same mistakes again." Zheng Zhilong shook his head slowly.

"You are showing cowardice. I don't understand why you are so cowardly. With our British Empire as your backing, what is there to be afraid of in that Jiangchuan?"

This person was David Copperfield who led the British mercenary army preparing to attack the Qin army that day.

He came this time to urge Zheng Zhilong to cooperate with the British in attacking Hangzhou.But Zheng Zhilong was evasive, which made him very annoyed.

"Didn't you Brits suffer a lot last time? You have the nerve to talk big." Zheng Zhilong threw a nail over him, and David, who was choking, was speechless for a moment.

"Report to the general, the young general is here." A personal guard came in and reported.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Sen, dressed in a British military uniform, walked in excitedly.

"Father, I heard that Hangzhou is going to be fought?" Zheng Sen asked excitedly before he approached.
