"...The Tatars mobilized an army of such a large scale, and there should be no mistakes. Therefore, we have to go from two breakouts. The two most important defenses in our Datong border town are the north and the west. The Tatars broke into these two places. On the one hand, there were two major roads, and on the other hand, they defeated the defenses in these two places..."

"............ The army of tens of thousands of cavalry consumes a lot of people and horses. Moreover, the Tartars will not just kill all of them when they come in, but also bring the population and supplies back to the grassland. On the one hand, they must supply the front army, and on the other hand, they must temporarily resettle the stolen population and wealth, which requires a military station..."

"... from the west, from the east, Huairen's side happens to be the intersection of the east and west sides, the distance from the Saikou Pass is appropriate, and it can ensure that your retreat will not be cut off. It is also on the plain, and it can store supplies and rest the troops..."

Some people are still thinking, and some have already reacted, and Zhu Da still concluded: "The Tatars regard the farm as the station for the invasion this time. The Tatar army will not only pass by Huairen County when they come and walk, but will stay by the edge of this city until they return to the grassland!"

Everyone who heard this trembled and stared at the outside of the city. People were hiding in the grass and trees in the wild. They were frightened to watch the bear, tiger and giant beast passing by nearby, but now the man-eating beast actually lay near the human hiding place. The possibility of being swallowed by the beast was increased countless times!

The people standing around were breathing heavily. They were lucky before, thinking that the Tartars were just passing back and forth, and at the most dangerous time, they were just passing through the border. Being cautious is enough, but now the Tartars are camping outside the city and may be attacked at any time!

After looking around, Zhu Da said in a muffled voice: "Huairen County is not worth much to the Tatars. Instead of spending life to attack, it is better to leave it alone. But the Tatars will not follow us and we cannot collapse ourselves, nor can we ignore anything."

When people are afraid and confused, someone tells everyone what to do, and they can adjust it quickly. At least they will numbly follow the leader's instructions. Zhu Da's orders are issued, and others obey the orders.

"Qingyun and I won't go down from the city anymore. Brother Chang and Teacher Wang, you guys who are over thirty years old, come here in shifts to convey the news under the city."

Everyone agreed again, turned around and worked their own things. Wang Xiong also had to go down the city to explain to Wang Hu. He was more calm than the others. He asked in a very interesting way before coming down the city: "Have the boss learned military tactics before?"

"How do you ask this?" Although the moment of emergency was at this moment, the chatting of the two could relieve the tension of others, and Zhu Da still responded.

"Why did the Tartars choose to set up a military camp here? In the army of more than 100,000 people back then, only twenty of them could come up with. I can think of it because of the boss's special teaching, but how could you deduce it here, you are here?"

"You have been here for a short time. Many of my skills are when I met a Taoist priest in the wild that year." This answer was very skillful for Zhu Da.

Wang Xiong was shocked when he heard the answer. Under his understanding, it was nothing more than Zhu Da who made up a reason, but this reaction was too fast. Wang Xiong smiled and bowed to leave.

He thought it was a lie, but those who had been with Zhu Da for a while knew it was not. Everyone thought that the "wild Taoist priest" who might be from a sect was real, and this legend was particularly in line with the routine of jingshi legends, and everyone believed it without doubt.

In fact, the real reason is very simple. Even those who are familiar with Zhu Da can guess that Qin Chuan understands military tactics and has some insights. However, everyone cannot imagine that Zhu Da’s learning ability is so strong and he can learn from it. This is all the learning methods and logic in more than 20 years of life, but this reason cannot be said to others. This is even more absurd than the "wild Taoist priest" by the river.

Now that Wang Xiong was shocked by Zhu Da’s “strategic insight”, he must have been very clever and so on. Everyone believed it, and they were all honored.

Although everyone is nervous and afraid now, it is no more nervous and afraid when they first saw the Mongolian army. "Huairen County is not worth much to the Tatars. Instead of spending life to attack, it is better to leave it alone." Everyone thinks that this is true. The more they think about it, the more logical it becomes. It is nothing more than waiting for the battle. Anyway, the Tatars will not really attack.

Looking at the campfires everywhere in the fields and villages under the city, smoke began to rise in Huairen County. Not only did the people in the city start to make fires and make meals, but the dinner for the young and strong servants also began to be prepared. After a day of nervousness and panic, everyone was very tired. Under the heat of the fire on the city, many people had eyelids fighting.

Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun patrol the city as usual. Whenever they walk somewhere, the dozing person will be pushed and reminded by their companions. The leader of the team often has to go up and scold, but Zhu Da doesn't want to pursue it very much.

"Bai Dan was scared for a day, and the Tartars might not be able to fight," Meng Tian said on the other side in a muffled voice. He and Fu Yu were the core members of the young police. In addition to having combat power, it was also their responsibility to communicate with Zhu Da and the gentry of the government. In addition to being assigned and arranged, they were mostly following Zhu Da.

After hearing what Zhu Da said just now, although the Tartars gathered and the camping in the city was even more powerful than the first meeting, Meng Tian was much more stable. He was extremely courageous. After calming down, he looked outside the city curiously. At this time, he could no longer see much, and even the roaring horse hooves were much lower.

"Don't be so happy so early!" Fu Yu also looked out of the city and replied in a low voice.

"how?"

"The master has something to do, and I don't tell us something. I just look like the elders hide it from us."

"The master is younger than us, why are he the elders... What you are saying is true, this master sometimes gets the same old man..."

Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were far away from the servants and young soldiers. Zhou Qingyun walked silent for a while and said in a low voice: "You didn't tell the truth just now."

"The Tartars must have to attack the city, there is no luck." Zhu Da replied in a deep voice.

Both of them were speechless. Zhou Qingyun nodded silently. He would never doubt Zhu Da's inference, he would only believe without hesitation.

"Let Chang Kai call his adoptive father to come to the city later, don't make it too loud, and don't come to me when you come." Zhu Da whispered.

After the two of them turned to the other side of the city wall, Zhou Qingyun casually found an excuse to go down the city, while Zhu Da continued to patrol the city with his people.

After it got dark, the Mongolian army gradually stopped. Even though it was flat on this side, Mongolian herders had much less night blindness than the Han people, so they would try to avoid marching at night.

One day ago, I looked at the city wall at night and saw darkness, and at most it was the black outline of the mountains in the distance reflected by the stars. But now I looked out. The fields at night were like stars, and the fields and even further away were bonfires, as if the stars were flashing.

Zhu Da returned to the west side of the most important city. The Mongolian Liangtai Camp was located there. The servants and young soldiers around him, and even the young and strong people who were recruited to the city, were much more relaxed at this time. Except for those who were on duty, everyone else was eating supper and whispering, discussing when the Tartars could retreat.

Hearing this discussion, Zhu Da shook his head slightly. There were no so many good things in the world that he wanted to achieve. However, he looked calm and looked indifferent. Although the servants and young policemen were familiar with Zhu Da, the young and strong man in charge were full of awe and curiosity for him. From time to time, there were low-key discussions that "...it looked like he was in his thirties and forties..." and it was heard in his ears.

Just as the cold wind was blowing, I heard a commotion coming from the city far away, which made the people on duty very nervous, but soon I found out the reason. Mr. Qin, the Qin Juren, came to reward everyone.

Although I ate good dinner and had enough food, I thought it was a good thing for everyone to eat some more rewards, not to mention that the new juren from the county came to reward him personally, so there was no such glorious face.

The men also knew that it was wartime, and the rewards of this city were focused on reality rather than scenes, and they could not alarm the enemies outside the city, so there was no gong and drum show. They lowered their voices when they spoke, and even distributed newly-browned mutton and dried vegetables pie, steaming and full of oil.

Although the young and strong people on the city are protecting the safety of the city, in the eyes of all the leading figures who have climbed the city, these people who are afraid of their heads are still inferior untouchables. Except for a few young policemen and servants, the heads of the housekeepers, they deserve a smile or nod.

Compared with the "masters" who have the most fame and fame, Qinchuan, the Qin Juren, who has the highest fame and status, is friendly and kind, and distributes the pie with his own hands. From time to time, he asks the young and strong people who are guarding the city if they have enough clothes and what they have at home. He also generously declares that all those who participate in defending the city will be exempted from taxes for the next two years.

It was this promise that made the young and strong people who were guarding the city disturb. From a legal perspective, only the Juren master was truly qualified. I never thought that he could enjoy it. Two years of tax exemption is a great benefit for small families, and the Juren master was particularly credible when he said this.

When Qinchuan and Qin Juren made a promise, several people from the yamen subconsciously wanted to stop him, but hesitated and did not move. Although this involved his own interests, compared to the critical survival of Huairen City, some money was nothing. And if you agree now, it does not mean that you must do it in the future.

Originally, Qin Chuan also invited Ai Magistrate Ai and Mr. Hu to the city, but they were quite embarrassed. Qin Juren didn't even persuade him for a second time. Seeing Qin Chuan leading the gentry to the city to express condolences, many people felt that Ai Magistrate was completely marginalized.
