Chapter 181: A Million Siege The Enemy Arrives (2)
Hearing Gu Xin's fearful report, Zhang Ping'an looked at him dissatisfiedly: "You are so stupid, why are you panicking! Just arrive when you arrive! Send the order, do whatever you should be busy with! Don't watch the fun!"
Zhang Ping'an's calmness calmed Gu Xin. The Grand Marshal is the Grand Marshal, treating the enemy as if nothing is. This is what the Grand Marshal said, despise the enemy strategically!
Gu Xin felt a little guilty about his fear. He smiled at Zhang Ping'an with a hug and turned to go out. With Zhang Ping'an's calmness, Gu Xin calmly criticized his subordinates' staff.
The important officers in the Baishan command post all made excuses and came to Zhang Dashuai's study to ask for instructions. In fact, they all wanted to find comfort in Zhang Ping'an's expression. The result was satisfying them, and Zhang Dashuai showed great disdain for them with his eyes.
Seeing the crowds of people asking for instructions, Zhang Ping'an himself also wanted to go to the platform to see the Jurchen troops. But he knew that the time had not come, and if he went out to see it at this time, he would have a psychological hint to everyone, and Mr. Zhang still cared about the strength of the Jurchen troops.
Therefore, Zhang Ping'an had to endure until tomorrow before he could carefully observe the enemy situation. Such psychological hints could eliminate the fear of his subordinates.
He was thinking about how to get through this difficult day when he heard a small knock on the door. Zhang Ping'an grabbed a defense map of Baishan Command Post, picked up a charcoal pen, and outlined his expected battle plan.
After preparing everything, he shouted at the door: "Why don't you even shout a report, come in!"
After a while, the door was slowly pushed open, and Zhou Wei leaned into her head and looked in. Zhang Ping'an saw Zhou Wei's movement from the corner of his eyes, and looked up and smiled at her: "Are you here to ask for instructions?"
Zhang Ping'an's tone was calm, which made Zhou Wei feel a little embarrassed. She nodded first, then shook her head. "Brother! There are so many enemies, you go and have a look!"
"Come in and try the green tea that Lin Qian respects me! He said that the emperor is not as good as me. Ruge told me that you and Yaxin both like to drink green tea. So call her here too and let's chat!"
What Zhang Ping'an didn't expect was that Gu Yaxin was strung out from behind Zhou Wei. Zhang Ping'an opened his mouth and then smiled: "I knew you were scared! Hehehehe, if Deyin saw you like this, he still didn't know what kind of heartache he felt!"
Zhang Ping'an's joking tone made them feel much more at ease. They just went out to see the scene outside and were frightened by the powerful military aura of the Jurchens.
Zhang Ping'an, who was completely calm, made a call for the two women. He enjoyed and savored the fragrance of green tea. Zhou Wei and Gu Yaxin picked up the tea bowl with their trembling hands. After a few sips, they finally calmed down with the double comfort of Green Tea and Zhang Ping'an's calm expression.
"Brother, Sister Ruge wants to come here to see you! Can you please let her come?" Zhou Wei tentatively led to the topic in an inquiring tone.
"Do you think I don't want to see her, so there is no way. Ruge really can't come here. She is in Ponu City, which is more important than here. If I am not in Ponu City, Ruge runs here again, and the people in Ponu City will be unstable. She is in Ponu City, which is equivalent to me in Ponu City. Do you think she can come?"
Zhou Wei nodded, and it makes sense to recognize Zhang Ping'an's words. "Brother, can you defend Ponu City?"
"The Mongolian Tartars are easier to fight than the Jurchen Tartars. I don't think it's a big problem! You all know that Chen Pang is only worse than me in command of the army. There is also a Lu Xiangsheng next to him. Lu Jiandou is not much worse than me except for lack of practical experience. If these two people cooperate and understand, I may not be their opponent. Fighting the Mongolian Tartars is like playing. In addition to Xu Yian, this kid usually looks quite honest. But he is full of bad water, no less than me!"
Zhang Ping'an mentioned that Xu Yian was full of bad water, and finally made the two beauties laugh out loud. Since the door was not closed, Zhou Wei and the others' elegant and happy laughter came to the combat room downstairs, which made the already solemn atmosphere of the combat room suddenly feel much more relaxed.
Everyone in the war room was thinking that Mr. Zhang had really leisure time. At this time, he could make the terrifying beauty laugh. This means that the strength of the enemy was nothing in the eyes of Mr. Zhang.
So in a very short time, Gu Xin organized a series of commands according to the pre-war arrangements. Then he went upstairs and asked Zhang Ping'an to sign. However, Zhang Ping'an only took a look and put down the command file.
"Ku Xin, these are not urgent matters. I will issue them tomorrow. I will only give them one order today, which is to monitor the movements of the Tartars according to the pre-war plan!"
Then Zhang Ping'an looked up and waved to Zhou Wei and Gu Yaxin, "You two go and do it! I have something to talk about with Gu Xin!"
When the two beauties left with a relaxed mood, Zhang Ping'an's tense legs finally trembled. Fortunately, there was a tabletop covering, Gu Xin did not see Zhang Dashuai's trembling legs.
"Guxin! In the past few days, you have sent a drawing consultant to draw the garrison map of the Jurchen camp according to the landmarks arranged before the war! At the same time, the entire army will enter the second-level combat readiness! Scouts from all departments will patrol their respective defense areas day and night!"
After saying that, Zhang Ping'an waved to Gu Xinyi and signaled him to do it immediately. After Gu Xin left, Zhang Ping'an walked to the window and looked out. He saw that the sea of people on the other side of the lake was like tides and flags covered the sun.
The war drum pierced the sky like thunder, shocking people's hearts. The experienced general Zhang, who led troops, heard it. The deafening sound of the war drums showed that the Jurchen army had no less than one thousand faces.
"Tasha! Tasha! Tasha!" (Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!)
The sound of war drums soaring into the sky was instantly submerged by the larger Jurchen war horn. This was a war horn shouted by hundreds of thousands of war soldiers, like a tsunami roar, rolling huge waves, slamming into huge rocks. The low ox-horn war horn sounded, like a strong wind swelling, making Zhang Ping'an feel restless.
The main force of the Jurchen army gathered together from four directions, people were like ants, horses were like swarms, with brightly coated armor and galloping war horses, without a glance.
Zhang Ping'an could only take a rough look today, and Gu Xin would like to sign an order to him later. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, he had to continue to calmly pretend.
At this moment, Zhang Ping'an tried hard to suppress his inner fear. The Jurchen army made a frightening appearance, which was really too scary. He believed that he had seen big scenes, but the scene of hundreds of thousands of troops gathering still made him frightened.
................
Although the autumn sun is lazy, it is still warm. After breakfast, Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pofu Army, walked to the highest top platform of the Baishan Command Post. He ordered his personal soldiers to place the chair in front of the adjusted high-power telescope.
Then drive everyone away. Zhang Ping'an is going to observe the Jurchen army camping today. He doesn't want anyone to see any fearful expression.
The personal soldiers helped Zhang Dashuai pour milk tea and walked off the platform one after another. Zhang Ping'an looked at the Jurchen camp with his naked eyes. After a night of operation, the Jurchen camp had already taken shape.
He saw the Jurchen army on the other side of the lake, five or six miles away from the lake, and set up hundreds of large and small camps. There were thirty to one hundred feet wide distances between each camp.
The Jurchen coalition camp was a bit strange. Their army camps were heavily winged, and there were about ten miles of open space in the middle, forming a large geese-shaped formation. Zhang Ping'an thought about it and understood the intention of the Jurchen coalition camping like this.
The Jurchen coalition camped like this, first, it was to facilitate the arrangement of troops during the attack; second, when the Pou Nu Army attacked from here, it would be surrounded by the two wings of the goose-shaped formation.
On the north of the Jurchen coalition, that is, the right wing of their army, the flags are arranged in sequence, with two blue flags and two white flags of the Han army. Behind the Han army flag are the Jurchen red flag and the Mongolian Korqin troops. (To be continued)
