Chapter 74 Courage
Armansa, who returned to the earthen house, was still in fear. Looking at the three riders who were brought back to kneel and unable to walk, the Ming Dynasty marshal, who suspected that the moody Ming Dynasty was brought to the devil.
In any case, he saved his life and the old governor who survived the disaster was idle and opened a bottle of rum in broad daylight, leaning against the windowsill of wheat straw and soil, looking at the low tide sea surface and drinking sips.
Everything is unknown about the future of this land.
The atmosphere on the other side of the village was much heavier. Since Chen Mu let Almansa and the three messenger riders go, Jun Song never stopped cursing and muttered like an old woman.
He took off his chest and knocked it with his fist, and then said barely that he wanted to train his personal soldiers to prepare to resist the attack of the Western Army.
The strange performance made Chen Mu feel that the leader of the personal soldiers loves to act more than he did, and performed the manic patients to the fullest.
Moreover, this guy doesn't like wearing armor. I heard that he had been transferred to his subordinates several times before he was transferred to his subordinates, and he always liked to go into battle with bare hands. Now he took off his armor and had a scar on his flesh and a sharp nose. The flesh was covered with scars and arrows.
When someone went to Kayi, he saw that there were scars on his body. When he went to Kayi, he happened to see that there was good meat on his body.
Chen Mu felt that Du Song had this problem probably because he was strong and wanted to show off. When he was the chief banner, he was bare-handed. Of course, he was not as bastard as Du Song. He was famous for his life. What's more, he later met more people and found that there were always those who were stronger than him, so he was not proud.
But Juniper may not have encountered many people stronger than him so far, so he kept showing off.
"Put your clothes and armor well, and then other generals and officials will come over later. What should you think of your virtue?"
Chen Mu ignored him and lowered his head to think about his own affairs until he became more and more troubled and then raised his head to rebuke, and then looked down at the port defense map to think about the uprising.
In fact, there are no generals in Acapulko, and the rest are more of the officials of the military office, including Yang Tingxiang and Xu Zhenming. The only serious generals are Shao Tingda, Fu Yuan, Hei Yunlong, and even Hei Xiao and others are following Deng Zilong.
The situation is just like the letter Almansa wrote to Bernard. The subject of Acapul is indeed empty, and the defense is very empty. The total number of soldiers is less than 3,000, and two important roads that are nearly fifty miles apart from north to south are required.
"Master Shuai, I'm anxious! We know clearly that once the troops are sent..."
Chen Mu took the conversation and raised his eyes and asked, "Once the troops are sent over, can't you beat them?"
"Ha! The little stupid thief Bernard, Du took his hair and joined the army. I can beat him with a knife to fight alone, so I can beat him!"
Look, you can do it!
Chen Mu did not hurt the enthusiasm of the general and said, "If you are so hot and anxious, just drink more tea. If you can beat you, you can win without taking off your clothes. If you can't beat you, it's useless if you take off your clothes. You can cut a few more knives after wearing armor."
Fortunately, Du Song was manic, but even at the most manic time, he could still listen to Chen Mu's orders. He stopped and let his servants wear armor for him. Then he stepped forward and asked, "Why didn't the general kill him? He should be executed if he did such a leak of military opportunity."
"Even if you don't kill, you should send someone to recover the two thiefs who have left the letter."
Chen Mu looked at the defense map and swayed left and right, ignoring Du Song's doubts, and looked up and said with a long breath: "The two troops should be taken back now, leaving only the scouts to spy, and gather troops to deploy defense at the port."
"But we just built fortifications on two important roads, and it was a pity to fill them in. Should we take the risk of letting the two departments continue to defend them, or fill out the fortifications and shrink the defense?"
In fact, this question should not be a multiple-choice question in most cases. At this time, there is only one reason that makes Chen Mu confused. At the root of the matter, he felt that the soldiers could defend - even if the Western Army might attack with multiple forces.
"Don't defend, the enemy has known our army's deployment, so we should change the military situation at this time." Du Song slapped his two black hands: "Take the initiative, don't ask for a port. We only choose one of the two roads and attack the city of Mexico!"
"Either we meet on a narrow road, our army will never be able to fight; or the Western army will get a port, our army will get a city of Mexico."
It’s true that Du Song is just playing with the average family change tactics. It would be beneficial to the Ming army if he can really implement it.
However, there are many flaws in implementation.
For example: "What if the Western Army did not attack?"
Du Song was stopped by Chen Mu, and then Chen Mu continued: "It is easy to kill people, but if you kill people, you will be gone. If you want to make up for it, you will never be able to use it."
"Besides, I think it's not a bad thing for our army to send those two letters to Bernard. Bernard did not dare to attack before, and he did not dare to attack at this time."
"Why is this?"
"Half a month ago, Shaw Tingda asked Almansa to write a letter to another commander of the army under Bernard, and the letter would be sent to Bernard, a counter-espionage letter."
Chen Mu sat back and said, "The letter means that the commander of the army named Hesus and his several subordinates will kill Bernard. The letter falls into Bernard's hands. Do you think he believes it?"
Jun Song had no idea that there was anything else. His brain, which had been full of muscles for a while, didn't react and shook his head gently.
After a while, Du Heizi realized and said, "If he believed at that time, he would have to deal with the legion first. If it were not done well, it would lead to civil strife. Perhaps there are only three or four thousand troops left in his hands now."
"If he doesn't believe it, he won't believe Almanza's letter this time?"
Chen Mu chuckled, stroked his hands on the edge of the table with nothing to do, and said, "That's the reason."
"The last letter may or may not believe it. Even if they don't fight, Bernal dares to let Jesus lead the army alone, nor dares to let the Jesus troops stay in Mexico City. The situation can only be worse. The two armies restrain each other due to suspicion."
"If he doesn't believe it, will the letter this time be true or false to him? How can he believe it? Why do you think it's not another luring enemy?"
Chen Mu said that arrogance appeared again, put his hands in front of him and said to Du Song: "It is good for Bernard to see this letter. At least he knows that I, Chen, can mobilize at least three thousand troops."
"Tingda infantry and cavalry have been 2,000 since landing for 400 miles, a partial division has penetrated the Herrera Legion by the White Horse River, and a hundred black cloud dragons have gone down to Silver City, which scared Bernard so much that he has not dared to find him from Mexico City until now."
"Don't believe it or not, Mexico City already knows that Chen has at least 3,000 troops set up camp here. Will he dare to come?"
