Chapter 256 The Enemy in the West

After the city wall was repaired, Guo Zixing inspected it himself, and learned that every section of the city wall was extremely strong, and the old man was very happy.

"Fang Qiang, the contribution to building the city wall this time is indispensable. Tell me, what do you want me to reward you for?"

Whenever Guo Zixing is happy, he wants to reward him for his merits. He is really grateful for his decision at the beginning. This Fang Qiang is indeed a rare talent. Look at the repair of the city wall, it is really fast and good!
"It is the honor of the last general to serve the commander-in-chief, I dare not ask for any reward!"

When Fang Qiang spoke, there was sincerity in his eyes, which moved Guo Zixing greatly.Fang Qiang is really too sensible to have made such a great contribution and yet not be rewarded!
Guo Zixing knew that Fang Qiang was able to repair the city wall thanks to something called cement.He has personally inspected this gray powder several times.It is indeed a good thing, and it is perfect for building a city wall.

Guo Zixing has led troops to fight for many years, and he saw the strategic value of this thing at a glance, but he didn't find Fang Qiang's secret recipe for cement. This kid is his son-in-law, can he still jump out of his palm?

The production process of cement is not complicated. Anyone who knows the steps and formula can do it. Therefore, Fang Qiang kept strict secrecy when making cement. Every step was watched by his own staff. are independent of each other!
The ratio of the formula is the most important thing, this is checked by Fang Qiang himself, he doesn't want to make this secret recipe cheaper for others.

In fact, those who want to know the secret recipe can still deduce one or two. After all, the raw materials such as limestone and clay used by Fang Qiang cannot be concealed, but it is not so easy to know the exact secret recipe, because the ratio of various raw materials and the calcination The temperature is a huge problem. There are no thermometers in this era, so the cement that Ye Fangqiang burnt is absolutely unique, and no one else can imitate it even if they want to.

The weather in these few days has suddenly been extremely cold. Fang Qiang knows that the cold winter is coming, and before the cold winter arrives, Jia Lu will definitely launch a crazy attack. The 20 army is about to be assembled, and the whole air is full of fear A tense atmosphere, black clouds overwhelm the city and want to destroy it!

"Report..."

A scout ran into Guo Zixing's tent in a hurry, "Report to Commander, Yuanbing scouts were found thirty miles to the north."

"Explore again!"

"Yes!"

"Report..."

Another scout ran over to report, "Report to the commander-in-chief, a group of people and horses were found in the depths of the eastern and western forests, acting suspiciously!"

"Oh? There is an ambush in the West?"

Guo Zixing suddenly became nervous, because the west side was their only way of life. Once the city was broken, they could escape from there. Now there is a large group of people over there...

Yuan Bing is going to wipe them all out!

"How many people are there? How about their weapons and equipment?" Guo Zixing asked hastily.

"Back to Commander, the terrain in the west is complicated, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and you can't see clearly, but there is a large area in Wuyangyang, there must be 2 people!"

"Come on, raise the account!"

Guo Zixing let out a big heck full of air.The purpose of raising the account is to call all the leaders of the rebel army to hold a meeting to discuss the countermeasures.

The entire army had been preparing for war during these days, so everyone arrived in just a moment, including Fang Qiang.

Guo Zixing told about the situation discovered by Tan Ma, and then everyone talked about the situation in front of them, but most of them complained, and some even asked if they could escape?

Of course, the man was cast aside by everyone.It's not that everyone doesn't want to run, but that Haozhou City is surrounded and there is nowhere to run!
If you can't run, you have to fight!If you fight now, you can still gain the initiative. Once the enemy soldiers approach the city, it will be too late.

There are a total of 2 garrisons in Haozhou City, and the enemy in the west probably has the same number. It is definitely impossible for the whole army to attack. After all, Haozhou City has to keep some people garrisoned.

Guo Zixing decided to send 5000 men to wipe out the enemies in the west, which was the most he could send.But who to send?
Here comes the problem!Because no one wants to go!No one is stupid at this point. Five thousand versus twenty thousand is a mountain battle. This battle is impossible to fight. Even if you go, you will die.So the generals in the tent began to blame each other.

"General Zhang, Your Excellency is brave, invincible, resourceful, and often able to anticipate the enemy's opportunities. This mission of annihilating the enemy is none other than you!"

"No, no, I have a backache recently, so you better go ahead. Your soldiers are all brave and will return victoriously!"

"I really want to help the commander-in-chief take care of his worries, but I have been hit by the cold recently, and I really can't do what I want! Cough, cough, cough..."

Similar excuses continued, and the entire handsome tent was filled with excitement. Guo Zixing couldn't help but turn pale when he saw this scene. He clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles began to turn white.

"Shut up!"

Guo Zixing shouted loudly, and the entire tent was completely silent.

"You useless scumbags, how do you know how to push each other? Xi Bian'er is just the vanguard of Yuan soldiers. Do you want me to personally defend against the enemy?"

Hearing Guo Zixing's words, most of the rebel generals bowed their heads in shame.However, there are also those who are not afraid in the face of danger, and Guo Tianxu is one of them.I saw him take a step forward, clasped his fists and said: "Father, although the child is not talented, I am willing to rescue Haozhou City!"

"Oh? Why are you making trouble here, why don't you hurry up and get back!"

Guo Zixing was slightly surprised at first, and then severely reprimanded.Guo Tianxu is his own son, so he can't be allowed to go to death!

"Father handsome!"

Guo Tianxu took another step forward, and he was unimaginably persistent, "Father commander, my boy is indeed not sure of defeating the 2 army in the west, but my boy is willing to recommend one person. This person is extraordinary in martial arts and outstanding in strategy. He will definitely be able to take on this important task!"

I go!Only then did everyone suddenly realize that it was not Guo Tianxu who went by himself, but to recommend someone!
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, who would be the person recommended by him?This is almost indistinguishable from death!

Guo Zixing was also quite curious, so he asked, "Tianxu, who is the person you want to recommend? Tell us and let's take a closer look!"

Guo Tianxu had a smug smile on his face, and he said: "There is an old saying, one who is worthy is one who does not avoid relatives, and the person my child wants to recommend is my good brother-in-law——Fang Qiang!"

As soon as Fang Qiang's name was exported, there was a lot of discussion in the venue. Without him, Fang Qiang's reputation is really too great.

Extinguishing the bandit leader and crossing the mountain is not counting. Let's just say that the city wall he built two days ago is not only strong but also extremely fast. A project that normally takes half a year to complete was completed in half a month.

With the protection of the city wall, Haozhou City is much safer, and everyone's life safety is also more guaranteed. Therefore, even if everyone doesn't say it, they are grateful to each other in their hearts.

But now Guo Tianxu actually asked Fang Qiang to die, and said that his brother-in-law is not his brother-in-law, it is really shameless!
Of course, these people were just thinking about it. They would not speak for Fang Qiang. In fact, they even longed for Fang Qiang to accept this task so that they would not have to go.

As a result, everyone's eyes turned to Guo Zixing, and everyone was looking forward to his answer.
