2084. Chapter 2080 The reason why Xu Hai came to attack


"I do have an important task for you, for your Zhejiang Army. You are the key to the success of this battle to annihilate the Japanese pirates in Tuolin."

Zhang Jing continued to Zhu Ping'an again. I drank a cup of tea, put down the teapot, and said to Zhu Ping'an solemnly.

Zhu Pingan took the tea cup with both hands and said with a serious face, "Please give the governor the order. No matter what the mission, Ping An and the Zhejiang Army will never disappoint the governor. Use me in the first battle and you will win with me." ."

"Haha , good, what a 'use me in the first battle, use me to win'! He is indeed a young man, full of energy and courage!"

Zhang Jing looked a little unnatural after hearing Zhu Ping'an's statement. He was stunned for a second, then smiled and praised.

Zhu Pingan observed carefully, and the change of expression on Zhang Jiang's face did not escape Zhu Pingan's eyes, which made Zhu Pingan squint his eyes.

Why does Zhang Jing have an unnatural expression? Could it be that Zhang Jing was going to give him a dangerous and arduous task?

What are you afraid of danger? Crisis, crisis, danger and opportunity coexist. The more dangerous and difficult it is, the greater the opportunity.

As long as he is prepared in advance and has the Zhejiang army in hand, Zhu Pingan is not afraid of danger.

"Please give the order, Governor-General." Zhu Pingan was eager to give it a try.

"Don't worry, before I give you the task, let's talk about the Japanese pirates from Tuolin." Zhang Jing said with a smile, "Zihou, do you think the arrangement I made can attract the Japanese pirates from Tuolin?" Jiaxing? "

The key to the Battle of Tuolin is whether it can attract the Tuolin Japanese pirates to Jiaxing and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.

It is normal for Zhang Jing to ask this question.

Zhu Ping'an knew history. After hearing Zhang Jing's inquiry, he immediately replied categorically, "The Japanese pirates will come!"

"Oh, Zihou is so confident? How can he see it? ?" Zhang Jing couldn't help but asked curiously when he saw Zhu Ping'an was so sure.

"Going back to the governor, there are three reasons why I am so sure that the Japanese pirates will attack Jiaxing City." Zhu Pingan held out three fingers.

"Oh, I would like to hear more details." Zhang Jing nodded with interest.

"One: The Japanese pirates have occupied Tuolin for several months. They have been looting continuously. Songjiang Prefecture has suffered greatly. The wealth in the territory has been almost burned, killed and looted by the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates will rob Songjiang Prefecture again. The profit from plundering is already small, and the Japanese pirates will definitely wait for the opportunity to attack In recent days, Xianguan sent people to investigate and found that the scope of Tuolin Japanese pirates' plundering has continued to expand outwards. It can be seen that it is an inevitable choice for Japanese pirates to plunder outside Songjiang Mansion. "Zhu Ping'an. He took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and spoke slowly.

Zhang Jing nodded slowly while listening to Zhu Pingan's story.

Indeed, the Japanese pirates from Tuolin were like locusts, occupying Songjiang Prefecture for so many months, causing harm to Songjiang Prefecture every moment. They robbed the towns and villages of Songjiang Prefecture several times. Everything that could be snatched was taken away.

If you want to get better looting profits, go out and rob, this is the inevitable choice of the Tuolin Japanese pirates.

"The Japanese pirates from Tuolin want to plunder outside Songjiang Prefecture, and their destination can be inferred. The area around Songjiang Prefecture that is close, convenient for mobilizing troops, and rich and profitable is none other than Songjiang Fuxi Suzhou in the north, Jiaxing in the southwest of Songjiang Prefecture, Changzhou, Yangzhou and Yingtian up the river, and Hangzhou and Shaoxing down the coast, considering the distance, benefits, and convenience of attack and retreat. , Suzhou and Jiaxing are their best targets. These two places are the closest to their home base, with convenient water and land routes, and they can move in and out easily. It is also extremely convenient to retreat after success and escape after encountering setbacks. Relying on the waterway, once the waterway is blocked or the warship is destroyed, their retreat will become a problem. For them, the risk is too great."

"So, their best choice is. Comparing Suzhou and Jiaxing, although Suzhou is rich, they do not have a hidden hand in Suzhou. They once suffered a bloody blow under the city of Suzhou, and there are psychological shadows. If they attack the fortified city, the casualties will be huge. Whether they can win it is also unknown; the same is not true in Jiaxing. They have a secret hand in Jiaxing. They occupied Jiaxing before and planted some Japanese pirates in the city before evacuating. It is not a problem. Moreover, they have Zhao Chongwei, the prefect of Jiaxing guarding the south gate. Internally, for them, Jiaxing City is almost within their grasp. Although Jiaxing City was robbed by them once, Jiaxing has regained its prosperity now and has so much grain, grass, salt, and military supplies. If they rob it once, it is enough for them. After several good years, based on comprehensive comparison, their best choice is Jiaxing."

Zhu Pingan then said slowly, revealing the first reason why he concluded that the Japanese pirates would definitely attack Jiaxing.

Zhang Jing nodded and signaled Zhu Pingan to continue.

"Secondly, a few days ago, I ambushed the Tuolin Japanese pirates in northern Zhejiang, which greatly damaged the Tuolin Japanese pirates' arrogance, causing them to lose troops and generals, and their momentum was greatly damaged. The Tuolin Japanese pirates must be eager to regain face and restore their prestige. , to attract Japanese pirates to join. Wherever you fall, you can get up. Jiaxing is located in northern Zhejiang, which is a good choice for them to regain their reputation. "

Zhu Pingan cited another reason.

"Well, that makes sense." Zhang Jing nodded slightly.

"Third, I ambushed the Japanese pirates in northern Zhejiang and captured many Japanese pirates. After interrogating the Japanese captives, I learned that Xu Hai colluded with the Matsuura family and the Ryuzouji family of the Japanese Hizen Kingdom. These two Japanese famous names were expected to More than 10,000 Japanese pirates will arrive in the near future. The Japanese pirates are not here for tourism. Their purpose is to plunder wealth. Once these two families of more than ten thousand Japanese pirates arrive, Xu Hai will definitely lead them to plunder. The strong Tuolin Japanese pirates will definitely have a big appetite, and they will definitely choose a big city to attack, and Jiaxing is their best choice."

Zhu Pingan also slowly told the third reason. The Japanese reinforcements will arrive soon, and they will take action once they arrive.

"Well, yes, it's well-founded." After hearing this, Zhang Jing nodded approvingly, and then changed his tone, "But these reasons are not enough."

"Please give me advice, Mr. Governor." Zhu Pingan Hand over for advice.

"I am in Jiaxing City, and the Governor's Palace is in Jiaxing City. Xu Hai cannot refuse this temptation." Zhang Jing said slowly, "Xu Hai is an extremely bold careerist, and he is not willing to live under Wang Zhi. ! Capture Jiaxing, flatten the Governor's Mansion, and capture Zhang Jing alive. His momentum is at its peak, surpassing that of Wang Zhi. With this momentum, he can attract more Japanese pirates to increase his strength and surpass Wang Zhi."

I, Zhang Jing, personally entered the game as a bait, what about Xu Hai? Can you resist the temptation to level the Governor's Mansion and capture Zhang alive? "What the Governor said is absolutely true. For these four reasons, the Tuolin Japanese pirates will definitely come to attack Jiaxing!" Zhu Ping'an flattered him at the right time.
