In the past few days, Zukeng couldn't see any movement from the Ming army on Gao Jie's side, thinking that his alienation plan had worked, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
Delay, as long as he continues to delay, he can always delay Prince Yu's army to return for reinforcements.
At that time, not even ten masters will be afraid.
That guy is already a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't jump around for a few days.
But who would have expected that not long after he was happy, he received the news that Gao Jie, who had been standing still, suddenly marched in the direction of Wei Hui Mansion.
According to this speed, the troops can be at the gate of the city as early as tomorrow morning at the earliest.
Zukofa was immediately startled.
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and kept circling in the general military office.
All the generals are also in danger.
"Commander, please withdraw.
Before Gao Jie comes to kill us, let's take a step forward."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, you must not hesitate at times like this."
Zukefa's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.
These Green Camp generals in Henan are so ignorant that they don't know how to do anything but run when they encounter problems.
If he had run away a few days ago, he would have run away, but now seeing that Prince Yu's army is about to return to Henan, wouldn't he be making himself unhappy by running away at this juncture?
Zukefa was very clear about the thoughts of these Green Camp generals, and they were simply placing all the blame on him.
Anyway, if the sky falls and there is a high support, it will not hit these lieutenants, generals, and guerrillas.
"enough" Zukofa gave a stern sound and glanced at everyone coldly.
"Put away your petty thoughts, do you think this commander is easy to trick?"
Everyone was silent, lowered their heads, and looked at their noses and hearts.
"Humph, I have decided that Wei Hui Mansion must be defended.
Prince Yu's army will be able to return to Henan in ten days at most.
Don't you even have the confidence to defend it for ten days?"
Zukefa was very confident when he said this, but in fact he didn't have any confidence in his heart.
I just hope that Prince Yu can return to Henan soon so that he can save a day or two.
Everyone did not expect that Zukofa would decide to hold on to the city, but since the order had been given, they could not say much, so they had to clasp their fists and accept the order.
After all, Zuk Kefa was Zu Dashou's adopted son and had a superior status.
Therefore, the green battalion soldiers of Wei Hui Mansion were obviously much better equipped with weapons and armor.
Zukfa also ordered rewards to be given to the soldiers to encourage them to prepare for the upcoming war.
Zukefa had already made up his mind, regardless of what Gao Jie might do, all he had to do was to be a coward.
As long as he didn't take the initiative to attack because of his enthusiasm, he would never be defeated as quickly as Jin Yuhe.
Until now, Zukefa did not think that the Ming army broke the city while the Green Camp Army was firmly entrenched in Kaifeng.
Wei Hui Mansion is far less big than Kaifeng.
This has the advantage that 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and horses spread out on every city wall will not look thin, and it is enough to defend the city.
Zukefa is not a famous general, but he has experienced many great battles.
As the saying goes, if you haven’t eaten pork, you haven’t seen a pig run away.
Under normal circumstances, experienced city defenders will not block the city gate, but will set up a camp outside the city gate with their backs to the city gate, so that they can attack and defend freely.
Zukofa did the same.
He ordered people to set up camps outside the four city gates in advance, so that he could respond immediately no matter which direction the Ming army came from.
The offensive and defensive momentum changes at any time.
You cannot defend simply by defending.
When necessary, you must attack to relieve the pressure.
As for simple things like reinforcing the city gate and demolishing the houses next to the city wall, Zukefa would not forget it.
After handling everything properly, Zukefa felt a little more at ease.
Be sure to rest well before a battle.

In the dead of night, Zukfa specially called a pair of concubines to sleep in the house.
Although Zukefa is getting older, he is still very capable in bed affairs, and he has no problem in handling two women in one night.
He struggled for most of the night, and it wasn't until late at night that he exhausted all his strength and fell asleep.
The next day at three o'clock in the morning, Zukefa opened his eyes in a daze.
Seeing the two white bodies beside him, Zukefa's lips curved into a smile.
Last night was really exciting, these two sluts had so many tricks up their sleeves, they almost drained him.
Indescribable, indescribable But he couldn't immerse himself in this joy for too long, because he had to rush to the city to inspect.
If the high-ranking thieves are already approaching the city, there will be big trouble if Commander Wei Hui is not there.
Zukfa hurriedly put on his shirt and trousers, dressed neatly, kicked off his boots and walked out.
The front office and the backyard of the General Military Mansion are not far apart.
There is only a rockery and a hanging flower gate in between.
Zuk Kefa walked to the front office with square steps, and when he saw that there was no one in the office, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his chest.
"Where have all these idiots gone?"
Seeing that Zu Kefa was angry, the steward quickly said: "Sir, all the generals have gone to the city to supervise the battle."
Zukefa's eyes widened and he said: "What are you talking about?
They all went to the top of the city to supervise the battle.
The Ming thief has already arrived."
"Yes, sir, I heard that the thieves arrived outside the city at dawn, but they never attacked the city."
"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?"
Zukofa roared at the butler like a mad lion.
The housekeeper thought that you were sleeping like a dead pig and you couldn't wake up even if you screamed.
On his face, he said quickly: "It's all a minor fault.
Master, please calm down."
Zukofa pushed the butler away and said: "Get out of the way, if you delay the military plane, I will take your head."
After saying that, he left the Yamen angrily and headed towards the Nancheng wall.
Zukefa was eager to climb to the top of the city, and he didn't care about the dignity.
He ran all the way and was covered in stinky sweat.
By the time he reached the foot of the southern city wall, he was already soaked to the skin, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
Zukfa wiped the sweat from his forehead, rested his hands on his hips, and then walked towards the horse path again.
The horse paths in Weihui City are very narrow, and now there are civilians carrying city defense equipment up from time to time, making the space even more cramped.
Zukefa climbed to the top of the city as quickly as possible and walked to the city tower surrounded by his own soldiers.
Seeing the arrival of the Commander-in-Chief, all the green camp generals came to salute one after another.
How can Zukfa still be in such a leisurely mood now?
He waved his hand impatiently and asked: "How is the situation now?
Are the Ming thieves ready to attack the city?"
"For your information, Lord Commander, the Ming thieves have been digging tunnels since they arrived outside the city around Mao Shi.
It seems they want to attack the cave."
Lieutenant General Zhang Yong said with his hands clasped in fists.
"Point attack" Zukefa was stunned when he heard this.
This Gao Jie can be considered a veteran of many battles.
How could he make such a low-level mistake?
There are two methods of hole attack.
Whether it is digging down the city foundation or digging through the tunnel, it is difficult to succeed if it takes more than a month and a half.
If Gao Jie doesn't attack now, does he want to wait for the Eight Banners army to arrive before attacking Weihuicheng?
