When Ji Heng said that, Wang Bingzhi nodded, "Exactly."

Ji Heng then discussed the tactics with Lord Wang, and Ji Heng said, "Suzhou is a first-class and prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River. The pirates must have set up Suzhou's idea early on, but they should also know that the city walls of Suzhou are strong and there are many defenders. It is definitely not easy to invade. This is their first time to invade Suzhou, and there are only 3000 people. It should be known that it is impossible to capture Suzhou. Moreover, tens of thousands of soldiers from Fujian and Zhejiang are now stationed in Yuhang. Yuhang is very close to Suzhou. If you come to ask for help, the soldiers from Yuhang will be able to rush to help, and they will not be able to succeed in their invasion of Suzhou. From this point of view, it is not easy for the Japanese pirates to invade Suzhou this time."

Although Wang Bingzhi is good at using soldiers, he doesn't have Ji Heng's flexible mind. Hearing what he said, he pondered and said, "Then why do the Japanese pirates behave like this from my nephew's point of view?"

Ji Heng stared at the map, and then said after a while, "The pirate rebellion has been going on for the past ten years, but before that, it was always a small fight, and the court didn't pay much attention to it. It started two years ago. It has gradually intensified, and since the Fuzhou case this year, pirates have become rampant. The reasons are already very clear. One is the civil strife in Japan. The second is that King Wu’s former subordinates entered the sea as bandits, and two of them were the most powerful, namely Xu Tiehu and Wang Qi. The two were colleagues before, but now they are separated. Xu Tiehu integrated many small groups of forces along the coast, He also wantonly recruited desperadoes from the coast, and when his strength grew, he became unscrupulous and harassed the coast and inland. He plundered many times and tasted the sweetness, and became even more wanton. Wang Qi took Wu Wang's third son, Yang Qinzhi, who had escaped, and occupied the Several islands are also attracting people everywhere, and they want to make Yang Qinzhi king under the banner. The disaster of the pirates needs to be killed. Their prestige must be killed, otherwise it will become more and more serious. This time, the pirates dared to invade Suzhou with only 3000 troops. There must be another way. Suzhou is not easy to capture, but to the north there are Changshu and Wuxi, to the south are Jiaxing and Yuhang, especially to the west of Taihu Lake, which is vast. If they grab the boats entering Taihu Lake, they will be able to Without any scruples, our officers and soldiers will not be easy to hunt down. I am afraid that the 3000 troops are just bait, and the soldiers from Yuhang will be transferred to Suzhou, and then dispersed to Changshu and Wuxi. The pirates will have other forces to attack Yuhang. There are firearms factories and shipyards in Yuhang now, I am afraid they are the idea of ​​the firearms factories and shipyards. The Japanese always leave after looting. They should not consider the new firearms factories and shipyards established by the imperial court, but the firearms factories As for the shipyard, only the pirates such as Xu Tiehu and Wang Qi, etc., their original intention is not only to plunder, but also to attack back to land. Their plan is long-term, and naturally they want to destroy the imperial court's firearms factory and shipbuilding Factory. This can be regarded as reducing the power of the imperial court, so that we do not have the power to enter the sea as soon as possible. Therefore, this time it is time for the Japanese pirates and pirates to unite."

When Ji Heng said this, Wang Bingzhi also reacted.

He didn't expect Ji Heng to have such deep thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart. Seeing Ji Heng's expressionless face and deep eyes, he slammed into his heart again, thinking that such a person, fortunately, he hadn't met him face to face before. Frozen.

Wang Bingzhi then said, "If it's true what my nephew said, the Japanese pirates used a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, then what we have to do is to follow the plan."

Ji Heng nodded, "Exactly."

The two discussed for a while, and then several generals and commanders arrived.

The soldiers who went to summon them had already told them about Suzhou being invaded by pirates, so everyone looked serious.

General Liu Yuxuan was the most impatient, and said as soon as he entered the door, "Master Wang, Lord Ji, Japanese pirates have invaded Suzhou, and I am willing to lead troops to relieve the siege of Suzhou. This matter should be done sooner rather than later, otherwise Suzhou may be captured. "

Another general, Ouyang Fan, also said, "That's exactly the case. It's not too late for this matter. Our army should go to Suzhou immediately, just in time to take advantage of the Japanese pirates not escaping, and cooperate with the defenders inside and outside of Suzhou to form an encirclement and wipe out the Japanese pirates." .”

Zhao Zhili didn't speak, but when he saw Ji Heng looking at him, he said, "It's easy to escape from Suzhou. There are many rivers near Suzhou, and it's very close to Taihu Lake. If the Japanese pirates snatch the boat, it may be difficult to hunt them down. I'm afraid this time." Not only is the speed of soldiers important, but also how to form an encirclement trend."

Ji Heng nodded, and then stated his guess. The generals in the room are usually the ones who kill the enemy, but they don't have that kind of intention to beat around the bush, so Ji Heng proposed that they were even They looked at each other in blank dismay, then thought about it, and felt that what Ji Heng said made sense.

Then Liu Yuxuan asked, "According to what Master Ji said, this time we can't just do a rush to help."

Wang Daren said, "So this time I'm afraid it will be a big battle. After discussing with Master Ji, I'm ready to plan."

Lord Wang explained the strategy and arrangement for the future, and still sent Zhao Zhili to lead the Zhao family army to Suzhou for help, because Zhao Zhili's Zhao family army was very famous, if he didn't lead the army to help, the pirates would not be fooled.After Zhao Zhili rushed to help, if the Japanese pirates escaped, he would also pursue them, but he didn't need to pursue too deeply. Then, when another main force of pirates landed and headed for Yuhang, he would directly return to defense and block the pirates' return path to the sea. .

And Liu Yuxuan, who joined the army, was good at water warfare, so he led his troops to block the Japanese pirates' route to Taihu Lake, and let the Taihu water army defend against the enemy. He also sent Ouyang Fan to join Zhao Zhili. When Zhao Zhili returned to help, Ouyang Fan led his troops to continue the pursuit In addition, Lord Wang even ordered all land and water officers and troops to suppress the Japanese pirates this time, and the Japanese pirates must be completely wiped out.

Because Master Wang and Ji Heng believed that the Japanese pirates were just going ahead, there should be pirates harassing elsewhere to disturb their sight, so the other officers and soldiers would stay and respond later, while Ji Heng would bring the remaining 2000 People guard Yuhang.

After the plan was decided, Mr. Wang gave the order.

Zhao Zhili took the order to go, and before going out, he looked back at Ji Heng, and Ji Heng happened to look up at him, so he nodded to him, and Zhao Zhili also nodded.

Ji Heng once guessed and estimated the strength of the pirates, but he didn't calculate how powerful the pirates are, he just had a general understanding, so this battle, if the pirates are too powerful, I am afraid it will be a battle. fight to the death.

Zhao Zhili probably understood, but he didn't say anything, he just knew that Ji Heng was a weak scholar, and this time he personally supervised the battle, fearing that something would happen to him.

Zhao Zhili led the army to help Suzhou and set off first, and then several generals also took orders to set off. Ji Heng didn't return to his residence, so he stayed in the governor's mansion, waiting for the result with Lord Wang.

In the evening of the same day, he really received another letter saying that Ningbo was also invaded by pirates, and some pirates came towards Shaoxing, so Lord Wang sent his troops to rush to help.

Ji Heng was in the Governor's Mansion all night. Master Wang knew that Ji Heng was weak, so he asked someone to arrange a guest room for him to rest first. Ji Heng thought about it, and he was not polite, and really went to rest.

Few people can still fall asleep at this time.

In the morning of the second day, the letter was indeed received. The Japanese pirates who besieged Suzhou saw that Suzhou would not be able to attack for a while, and Zhao's army came to help, so they divided their troops into two groups. He snatched a boat and went to Taihu Lake.

These Japanese pirates burned, killed and looted all the way, doing all kinds of evil, and the people along the way suffered from it.

Zhao Zhili and Ouyang Fan went north to pursue the Japanese pirates and wiped out dozens of enemies. Afterwards, Ouyang Fan continued to chase the Japanese pirates, but Zhao Zhili led people back to help them quietly, and the Japanese pirates who went deep into Taihu Lake, because Liu Yuxuan did not stop them in time, the navy chased afterward. They were not opponents of Japanese pirates, so they confronted each other in Taihu Lake.

On October 4000th, another group of pirates invaded Jiaxing, Lord Wang personally rushed to help and supervise the battle. Since then, the pirates believed that Yuhang must be empty, so dozens of warships went directly from the Qiantang River to Yuhang, with a total of more than a thousand main forces. They went ashore and came directly to Yuhang. In addition, the pirates who harassed Shaoxing and Jiaxing gave up attacking the city and came to Yuhang. So far, three to [-] pirates have directly attacked Yuhang.

Ji Heng and Wu Xiao defended the city together.

The pirates' main force invaded Yuhang, which just confirmed Ji Heng's previous guess. Although Ji Heng and Mr. Wang had made a plan to attack pirates, but on the battlefield, strength has always been used to speak. Facing absolute force, it is useless to take advantage of it. Functional.

So Ji Heng didn't dare to relax at all.

When the pirates came, the marine police in the Yuhang area sounded the alarm. Because the governor and the governor were stationed in Yuhang, and there were soldiers from land and water training here, the people in the Yuhang area were the first to be taught how to avoid the danger from the sea.

Ji Heng had discussed with Mr. Wang and other generals a long time ago. Because the pirates were in chaos, if they attacked the city, they were most afraid that the pirates would use the captured civilians as the vanguard and force them to form death squads to knock on the city gate. Teach the coastal and inland people how to avoid these pirates.

As long as the alarm is sounded, these people need to follow the direction provided by the officers and soldiers to avoid contact with the pirates. Naturally, these people are also taught to defend their homes and defend the country. If they really face the pirates, they can't Let them do what they want.

Ji Heng supervised the battle. When he discovered that the pirates were coming to Yuhang, the coast guard alarm had been sounded inside and outside Yuhang City, and the people outside the city had already been told to avoid the war elsewhere. People who want to enter the city to avoid war will not open the city gate.

The pirates had already started attacking the city, Ji Heng looked solemn, and wanted to go up to the tower to check the situation.

The pirates came to bomb the city gate with their Franco cannons, and they had firecrackers, so even if Ji Heng wanted to hold on to the city gate, it would not be easy.

The emperor sent four dead men to guard Ji Heng's safety, one of them, Bian Wu, said to Ji Heng, "My lord, the gunfire has no eyes, don't go up the tower now."

Ji Heng said, "No problem."

He ignored Bian Wu's dissuasion at all.

The author has something to say: I know that most of the girls, who probably don't have any men, are not willing to read such non-emotional descriptions, but I think this must be written, otherwise the article will appear too empty.

In order to make up for the boring description of the large-scale war, here is a little sweet joke: Ji Heng's boldness in behavior and introverted feelings or sullenness:

When Ji Heng was in the southeast area, the emperor carefully put away all the secret books written by the emperor and put them in a red sandalwood box. Sincerely.

However, the emperor found that the densely folded paper was somewhat different from ordinary paper. It was paper with dark lines. The emperor had carefully studied the dark lines and found that there were only regular lines, not square lines. The emperor was very disappointed with the pattern of expressing his feelings such as Sheng, but Ji Heng was far in the southeast, and he had no one to express his disappointment.

A few years later, Ji Heng was already by his side. Western missionaries entered the palace to meet the emperor. Besides other precious things, there were also a batch of books. The emperor read these books, most of which were in Western languages, and only one The Bible is a translated version. The emperor stared at the Western text, and suddenly he was stunned. He ran quickly and took the red sandalwood box containing the closed book written by Ji Heng. He opened the book inside and looked at it. Light, seeing the dark lines below, it is indeed the sinuous appearance of Western characters.

But the emperor didn't know the crooked dark lines, so he immediately asked someone to tell the missionary to enter the palace. He himself drew the dark lines on the paper according to the shape, and then asked the missionary to see what it was.

After reading it, the missionary replied respectfully in strange but fluent Mandarin Chinese, "Your Majesty, this is missan, which means yearning."

His Majesty the Emperor, who has always been wise and mighty, widened his eyes and even looked a little silly, "Huh?"

The missionary thought he had said something wrong, but the emperor asked again, "Missing?"

The missionary said, "Your Majesty, that's right."

The emperor suppressed the joy in his heart, gave the missionary a reward, and asked him if he would like to teach Spanish in the palace. After getting a satisfactory answer, he let him go out.

The emperor read it twice in a low voice following the tone that the missionary had used just now, "Mi San, Mi Sa? Miss you!"

He secretly smiled in his heart, it was so sweet that he wanted to hum a tune, thinking that Ji Heng actually wrote all the secrets on paper with longing.
