When Wang Cong invited all the anti-kings from all over the world to gather in Lizhen, Wang Cong considered whether Dou Jiande would come to attack his Hejian County, at that time, Wang Cong thought about it, but there was also a possibility that Dou Jiande would choose Leshou County.It's just that Wang Cong didn't know that Leshou County was actually Dou Jiande's for a long time, and Leshou County ordered Kong Deshao to secretly naturalize Dou Jiande, and later Kong Deshao was appointed by Dou Jiande as an internal history, which shows that Kong Deshao is very valued by Dou Jiande.However, when Li Chenglong came that day, Wang Cong almost never suspected that Dou Jiande would come to attack his Hejian County, and then made a series of precautions, among which there were even many things that were handed over to Li Chenglong to deal with, which made Li Chenglong a little surprised.Although he had already explained his identity and intention to Wang Cong, Li Chenglong did not expect Wang Cong to trust him so much.Li Chenglong knew that his brother valued Wang Cong, and after such a period of getting along, Li Chenglong himself also wanted to see with his own eyes what Wang Cong was capable of, so he was also conscientious about Wang Cong's orders, even better than some of Wang Cong's subordinates.However, with the preparation of the work, Li Chenglong found that the city defense equipment in Hejian County was too far and far worse than Wagang, but there was one point, Wang Cong was extremely good at using the energy of the people, and the people were also involved in the preparation during this time.Could it be that my brother wants me to learn from this man?
Li Chenglong felt a little unpalatable for a while.A small county like Hejian has no choice but to rely on the people, so it is like this, and Wagang is indeed strong and strong, even if the people want to come to mix, military discipline does not allow it.What does my brother want me to learn from this person?
Li Chenglong has doubts in his heart, but the things in hand are completely unambiguous, and in a short period of time, he, the new deputy capital, has won everyone's trust and respect, because Li Chenglong is also an expert-level existence in defending the city.Three days later.The news that Dou Jiande's soldiers and horses had invaded the river was finally implemented, and when he heard the report, Wang Cong couldn't help but exhale deeply, which seemed to mean that the dust had finally settled, and there were endless worries that followed."30,000 soldiers and horses."
Wang Cong put down the letter in his hand, looked at all the generals and officials under his command, and finally stared at Li Chenglong, and continued: "But there are only 4,000 generals in my city, and the equipment is also very poor, do you have any good strategies to defend the city from being broken by it." ”"My lord, I have heard that there is an old prince around Lizhen who is killing the rebels, we might as well ask the old prince for help while making a plan to defend to the death."
A general is listed to make recommendations."
The old prince's official has sent someone to ask for help."
Wang Cong nodded and said, "However, the 200,000 Dou Jiande army only 30,000 invaded my Hejian County, and the reinforcements must have been expected for a long time, so you have to think about how we can defend Hejian City at present." ”In fact, Wang Cong of Hejian County already had such a conclusion in his heart that it was impossible for Yang Lin, the backer, to come to support him, but he couldn't say it directly in front of his subordinates, what he needed most now was confidence, and it was a good thing to let the soldiers know that there was still a glimmer of hope outside."
It's nothing, just stick to it!"
Another general jumped out and shouted: "Under the rule of my lord, the people of Hejian County are abundant, even that Dou Jiande is very virtuous, but we don't want him to enter the city!"
”Wang Cong has a unique way of using the men and horses under his command, that is, most of the people who have to be reused are locals, which can be regarded as a direct or indirect promotion for these people to be willing to die in order to save their homes.After this general, as expected, many generals stood up and shouted loudly to echo it, and for a while, the hall was full of war, and everyone showed their determination to die, which made Li Chenglong couldn't help but be slightly stunned, to know that Wang Cong almost didn't say anything to boost morale and morale.This is Wang Cong's cleverness, in the prosperous era of Qingping, most of the people are transferred, so as to avoid gangs to a certain extent, and in this troubled era, Wang Cong's way has the meaning of taking care of his own people under his own jurisdiction.Wang Cong nodded again, and said no more, then stood up and said, "The generals will go to the city with their officials to meet the people, and then you don't need to care about your personal life and death!"
”After speaking, Wang Cong came out from behind the handsome case and went straight out, and the military generals and officials in the lobby immediately followed behind one by one, and there was no one left, only Li Chenglong looked at the group of people who left with a little dementia.However, after being stunned for a short time, Li Chenglong also caught up.Out of the lobby, today's street is a busier scene than before, of course, this busyness is not the harvest but the people's support for this battle, food, vegetables, pots and pans, quilts, clothes and pants, and everything pushed and pulled by carts are going in one direction: the city gate.It filled every street in front of them, and all the people immediately cheered when they saw Wang Cong come out, and the cheers were all such a high-pitched timbre, and everyone seemed to be able to die at any time!
When there were still two streets away from the city gate, the streets were already full of various daily necessities on both sides of the shop, and Li Chenglong also saw that there were sergeants pulling grain and grass to the newly built shantytowns, and the people also stepped forward one by one to help unload them, and the whole scene was complicated but not chaotic at all.As Wang Cong walked all the way, both the sergeants and the people would shout to Wang Cong, and Wang Cong would also return the salute with his fists, and when he walked to the city gate, he saw countless small tents set up, needless to say, Li Chenglong could also guess that these would be the places where the sergeants rested.At this time, in the distance, some sergeants led a large group of women, old and weak, to build a large stove on the street, which meant to move everything to the city gate.Needless to say, there will definitely be no second possibility in this battle except for Dou Jiande's breaking of the city!
It's just that why is Wang Cong so popular with the people?
Li Chenglong couldn't figure it out, because what he had seen these days Wang Cong had not done much mobilization and encouragement at all, but he had already reached such a state where all the people were soldiers.As he went up to the city tower, Wang Cong led all the generals to patrol the entire city tower along the city wall, and finally made some additional troops in some places, and gave care to all the soldiers defending the city.This is the same as what the elder brother said to himself, that the sergeant should be treated like his own relatives and brothers.()
