On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Picking up a talented person made Lin Zhen feel a little better.

Recently, he has been troubled by one thing, which is that he has too few management talents under him.

Fatty Wang and Lu Dehao were naturally good brothers, no question about that. But they were two clowns, and it was no problem to let them indulge in drinking, whoring, gambling, and even some extravagance. But asking them to do anything serious was harder than climbing to the sky.

Take Lu Dehao as an example. Lin Zhen could only let him oversee the development zone, and he could only supervise it with a watchful eye, but he couldn't entrust him with any important tasks.

Therefore, Lin Zhen has been looking for talents for a while. So he first appointed Meng Chang, the grandson of Meng Lingwei, in Qinghe County. Today, he met this top scholar. With the accumulation of talents bit by bit, the talent pool in his team will become more and more powerful.

In the evening, Lin Zhen stayed in the government office and handed over the entire city defense to Fatty Wang.

Although the fat man and Lu Dehao are of the same kind, he is quite experienced in marching and fighting, and has his own set of rules for deploying troops. Lin Zhen is very relieved to leave these things to him.

Two days later.

Gu Yunsong finally reunited with his main force.

The people in charge of leading the troops were his general Zhu Shikun and General Huo Tianhong who was sent by Northern Yan to help.

The two generals led their troops, totaling 100,000 people, and gathered outside Dai County to set up camp.

At the same time, the news of the rebellion of the Taihang Mountain General Manager spread like wildfire in Daqian and even the entire Chinese land. Lin Zhen even ordered the city gates to be closed and various defensive facilities to be placed on the periphery, waiting for them to attack the city.

Gu Yunsong was not in a hurry. In the big tent, he sat high in the main seat and called Zhu Shikun and Huo Tianhong to discuss countermeasures.

"Shikun, you've seen the situation. The little emperor in the capital has already learned of our plan and has even sent three battalions to defend Dai County. What should we do?"

Zhu Shikun has a sinister square face, and his mustache is very long, like a ***.

"Sir, I suspect there is a mole among us."

"Are you saying that this matter was leaked by an insider?"

"Of course! Otherwise, the little emperor would never have discovered our plan! If we don't get rid of the traitor, we won't be able to attack the city with peace of mind."

"Well, that makes sense, but right now we only have less than three days' worth of dry food. If we hesitate, what will we do?"

"Heh." Huo Tianhong looked down on timid guys like Gu Yunsong and snorted coldly, "If you ask me, you Daqian people are just cowards. One or two traitors can't determine the victory of a war. In three days, capture Dai County, and all problems will be solved!"

Zhu Shikun was most annoyed by his arrogant and condescending attitude: "That's easy to say, but what if I can't take it down?"

"The failure to capture it only proves your incompetence! If it were our Beiyan heavy armored soldiers, we would have taken Dai County in less than three hours!"

Gu Yunsong was also a little unhappy.

Although the two sides are in a cooperative relationship, you obviously want to take the leading position.

Now I am the leader!

"But do you have heavy armor?"

"I am not talented, but I am willing to lead 5,000 heavily armored soldiers to attack the city first!" Huo Tianhong said shockingly. Gu Yunsong and Zhu Shikun looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.

If the people of Northern Yan charged forward, they would be able to reap the benefits.

But it is obvious that the person who can lead the troops to war is not a fool, but Huo Tianhong said: "But I have a condition."

"You said."

"If I take it, everything in Dai County will be mine, including treasures, food, and women! I can take whatever I want. Once you enter the city, you can only take what's left of us!"

"What if we can't take it?"

"If you can't take it, you need to provide me with reinforcements. As a report, I will obey your orders from now on."

What a cunning old man!

Huo Tianhong planned to test the waters with his own heavily armored soldiers. If there was hope, he would naturally send his army forward in one go, and then he would take advantage of the city. If the situation was not good, he would retreat immediately, and Gu Yunsong would replenish his soldiers who had been killed in battle.

What a calculation.

Unfortunately, Gu Yunsong may lack experience in fighting, but he has never lost when it comes to playing power games.

In his eyes, a mere warrior is still too young.

"Haha, General Huo is a quick-witted man, but Dai County is the gateway to the capital and the strongest city in Qianxi. Your five thousand heavily armored soldiers are definitely not going to be able to take it. Why don't you let my men intersperse among your camps and charge together? If the city is taken, you take the spoils first and we pick up the rest. If we can't take the city, we'll both suffer losses and won't need to complement each other. How do you think?"

This may sound reasonable at first glance, but upon closer inspection it is full of traps.

First of all, Gu Yunsong would not let the soldiers he had worked so hard to recruit go to die, that was for sure. Even if they joined forces with the Northern Yan soldiers, they would hide behind and would not charge into battle.

In this way, once the city is captured, he will have made a contribution, and Huo Tianhong will naturally not take all the benefits away.

If he fails to capture the city, not only will he suffer minimal losses, but the heavily armored soldiers of Northern Yan will also suffer heavy damage.

Without this golden signboard, the Northern Yan army is trash, and Huo Tianhong is also trash. From now on, both he and his subordinates will obey Gu Yunsong's command.

Anyone who dared to speak like this and make a promise must have rich experience in dealing with people. Huo Tianhong was obviously no match for him and had not thought about this at all. He believed that this agreement was completely reasonable and fair to him.

So he stood up and clasped his fists towards Gu Yunsong: "Since that's the case, we have a deal. I will go back and gather the troops and prepare to attack the city!"

"Alright! Shikun, immediately arrange for 5,000 troops to enter General Huo's heavily armored barracks and join the battle!"

Gu Yunsong deliberately emphasized the word "cooperation". Zhu Shikun, as he had been his subordinate for many years, understood it instantly and agreed immediately.

"Don't worry, sir. I will make sure everything is arranged!"

......

On the top floor of Dai County City, all the soldiers were wearing armor and helmets, with bows and arrows strung, ready for battle.

Lin Zhen patrolled the four city towers and finally returned to the west gate and stood with Fatty Wang.

"Fatty, what do you think of Gu Yunsong's formation?"

The fat man grinned with disdain on his face, as if what stretched for dozens of miles across from him was not an army, but a row of brothels.

"Brother, you think too highly of Gu Erbie. What the hell does he know about military formations? It's Mid-Autumn Festival now, and the weather is dry. He actually set up his camp under a slope covered with dead branches and fallen leaves. Whether we prevent a fire or a dam burst, it will affect his camp. Even if we don't do anything that will bring us heaven's punishment, and just lead a cavalry team to raid his camp in the middle of the night, it will be enough for them to bear, because their camp is really too close."

As expected of someone who had been to the battlefield, he spoke these words with great eloquence. Lin Zhen patted his shoulder in appreciation and said with a wicked smile.

"Why don't we try to rob the camp now?"
