Chapter 319

"How many soldiers are there in Chengwu County?"

"Back to the general, there are still more than a thousand soldiers and officials in Chengwu County!"

"More than a thousand people? How many people are there in Chengwu County?"

"Returning to General, Chengwu County has 38 townships and 120 four pavilions under its jurisdiction, with a total of 670 households, and a total of 220 old and weak women and children!"

"That's right! How many people are there in Chengwu County?"

"Back to the general, there are 230 households in Chengwu County, and a total of 600 people!"

"Lord Chen, how do you fight against Wei Bao's army with these [-] unarmed people?"

"Back to the general, there are 2 old Qin people in Chengwu County. My old Qin tribe should fight to the death against the bandits!"

Hu Hai was silent.

He really didn't know that there would be old Qin people in Chengwu County, who had sacrificed countless for Great Qin, and how many people should have spilled their blood during this turmoil.

Han Xin couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he said that he was from the old Qin Dynasty.

Just thinking about it, Chen Guang said again: "Even if Wei Bao dares to come, we can beat them out."

Han Xin nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Chen Guang: "Cheng Wu is too close to Wei State. This general intends that you should either return to live in Guanzhong immediately, or stick to the fortified city to prepare for future enemy forces." .”

"Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and even if the city is lost, we will never leave our ancestral land."

Han Xin understood that these people chose to live and die together with Chengwu County.

Arched his hands and said: "The army will be stationed here temporarily, you can ask us to help build the city and strengthen the city wall."

"Thank you, General."

After Chen Guang left, Chengwu County, which was originally peaceful, suddenly became excited.

A large number of people gathered and began to busy strengthening the city wall and stocking up on various defensive equipment!There is not enough wood, so if you demolish the house, door panels, beams, masonry, etc., everything that can be used will be done by the people without anyone saying a word.

There are less than a hundred real county soldiers under Chen Guang, and the rest are villagers temporarily recruited today to resist the Wei soldiers who attacked the city.

Han Xin then directly agreed to Chen Guang's request, turning all these people into official soldiers, and Chen Guang began to gather the people scattered around Chengwu County.

The reinforcement of the city wall and the defense equipment are naturally in charge of the artisans accompanying the army. It is impossible for Han Xin to ask these questions as the general in charge of the army.

Chengwu County Government.

A small courtyard-like building, with black brick and tile structure as the main body, inherits the simple, simple, solemn, tall, and rough style of the Qin people. It opens and closes everywhere, and has a unique atmosphere.

This county government office itself is a house integrating office and residence. Originally, Chen Youguang's family lived in this county government office.However, now that the army is here, this slightly crude and rough county government has naturally become the seat of the army shogunate.

Chen Youguang's family, old and young, all moved into a residential building next to the county government. Of course, this residential building was voluntary and strongly requested by the people.

Here, Han Xin met Zhongli Mei again.

In the first battle of Chengwu, Zhong Limei was injured and temporarily rested in the county.

In this battle, he beheaded 21 members of the Wei army, three centurions, and one captain, which can be said to have made considerable military exploits.

According to the military merit regulations of the Qin army, Han Xin canonized Zhong Limei as the former captain of the army, commanding a thousand soldiers.

At the moment, he is reporting everything to Han Xin at the county government office.

"General, the Wei army is defeated. Our army should seize the opportunity and concentrate our forces to march towards Xingyang instead of wasting time in Chengwu County."

Han Xin looked at Zhong Lizhen and asked with a slight smile: "Is this your idea or someone else's?"

"Some rough thoughts of mine."

Han Xin stood up and said, "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other thing! You can't be ruthless in a war. Although the enemy army was routed, they didn't stop there. Right now they still have tens of thousands of troops huddled in Xingyang. Inside. And Chen Yu's army is on the side, our army has won several times in a row and has become a proud soldier, this is definitely not the best time to attack."

"When is the best time?"

Han Xin smiled lightly: "The best time for us to attack is when the enemy has used up all their hole cards."

Zhong Limei nodded thoughtfully.

Han Xin struck while the iron was hot and said, "Do you still have the strength to fight?"

Zhong Lizhen lowered his head and looked at his gauze-tied wrist and said, "The damage is not serious, we can fight."

Han Xin nodded with satisfaction: "I need someone to play a scene with me. If I can act well, maybe this battle can end soon, and many people can be killed less."

"Please order from the general."

Han Xin took out an order arrow from the table and said, "Captain Zhongli is listening to the order."

"Zhongli Mei is here!"

"I will accompany you with three thousand soldiers, and you go to attack Xingyang."

"General?" Zhongli Mei was a little confused.

Three thousand soldiers and horses attack Xingyang?
Not to mention that there are tens of thousands of Wei troops in the city, and I have no advantage, even the fortification of this city is by no means something I can easily take down.

"Don't worry, just listen to me."

Han Xin paused for a moment and then said: "I hope you 3000 people will make as much noise as possible under Xingyang City. It is best to use these 3000 people as a force of 3 people. I need you to lure Wei Guo out of hiding. card. Do you have the courage?"

Zhong Limei's brain spun rapidly.

Although what Han Xin said is very simple.

But in fact, this is an extremely dangerous task. If they are not careful, they may all die there.

"Captain Zhongli is willing to fight!"

"Have you figured it out?"

Han Xin looked directly at Zhong Limei.

Zhong Limei said resolutely: "Think clearly."

Han Xin hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll add another 2000 people to you, and give you [-] soldiers and horses."

"No!" Zhong Lizhen once again rejected Han Xin's kindness.

"I only need 2000 people."

Han Xin was also stunned for a moment.

2000 people say more, no more, less, no more.It's really not enough for this person to want to bluff.

"2000 people? Are you sure?"

"I only need 2000 men, but I need a fire starter with 5000 men."

Han Xin was originally an extremely intelligent person, and he immediately understood Zhong Limei's plan.

Siege a city in daylight. Even if you are extremely capable, it is absolutely impossible to turn thousands of people into tens of thousands under the eyes of the enemy.

Only at night, the sight of the enemy troops bullying the city was blocked, and they relied on the advantage of torches to create a scene of tens of thousands of people attacking the city.

In this way, the enemy army will definitely think that all the torches under the city are enemy troops, and those hidden methods will inevitably be displayed.

"Okay, I'll give you 1 starters."

Seeing that Han Xin understood his intention, Zhong Limei smiled with satisfaction: "In this way, the general will no longer have any worries."
