This time, when Qin Zhengguo carried out combat deployment, he had less scruples: "In this battle, our Xinghua Army will face the enemy head-on, so we need to adopt the method of onslaught and maintain the main attack at all times, so as to fight fast and slow." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoWe have enough ammunition, it's our bargaining chips, and we use it to break through all enemy defenses. No matter what moves the enemy has, we must respond to all changes with the same and do our best to hit the enemy's main force. As long as the enemy's main force is eliminated, those small scattered enemy forces will naturally be no problem. ”

Qin Zhengguo's strategy was very simple, that is, to use the greatest advantage of the Xinghua Empire's legions-the huge lethality of guns and ammunition, even if the Xia State had more troops, it would not be enough to resist. Of course, that doesn't mean they should attack with grace. Only by playing fast and slow can we control the attrition to the greatest extent and control the situation as quickly as possible.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Zhengguo continued to supplement the battle plan, which would be detailed to the corresponding part of each team's responsibility, and said: "Xinghua Empire Eastern Expeditionary Corps, the third brigade, Major Zhao Feiyan, led 3,000 soldiers, in the dense forest on the west side, set up a defensive line, and eliminated the enemy on the flank; the second brigade, Lieutenant Colonel Zhao Chang, led 2,000 soldiers to guard the county seat of Xiangshan County; and I, I will lead the first brigade, more than 5,000 Xinghua troops, to attack head-on. ”

This is not over, just arranged the part of the regular army of the Xinghua Empire, and then, Qin Zhengguo turned his gaze to the conference room, the only person without a military rank, that is Che Enren: "Mr. Che Enren, although you are a member of the Xinghua Chamber of Commerce, but since you are responsible for coordinating the People's Army, therefore, the military department has decided to grant you the position of second lieutenant." The Xiemin Army will also officially enter the battle sequence of the Xinghua Empire's Eastern Expeditionary Corps. ”

Hearing Qin Zhengguo's personal appointment, Che Enren, who had already been approved by Xinghua Mall, was still agitated in his heart, and stood up uncontrollably, tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, maintained a calm attitude, and solemnly swore to Qin Zhengguo: "To serve the empire, to serve Your Majesty, I will never give up!"

Hearing this, Qin Zhengguo nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good." With regard to the Xiemin Army, the following specific arrangements were made: 20,000 Xiemin Army, leaving 5,000 people to assist Lieutenant Colonel Zhao Chang in defending Xiangshan County, Guixi County, and the area around Xuelian Pass, and ensuring the smooth flow of supplies; 15,000 Xiemin Army, following behind the First Brigade, to clear up the fish that had slipped through the net, but if the situation required it, it was also to become the main attacking force to assist the First Brigade in defeating the enemy...... This time, our goal is to occupy Shucheng in Yunzhou! Having occupied Shucheng, we need to stabilize order in the city within a day's time. ”

"Rest assured, our intelligence agency has a list that can help the military complete the clean-up activities in the shortest possible time. Said another man in an intelligence agency uniform.

Qin Zhengguo nodded.

At this point, detailed instructions were given on the attack, defense, and cleaning of the Xinghua Empire Legion, and Qin Zhengguo checked it again in his heart, and after making sure that there was nothing missing, he faced everyone again and asked, "If anyone still has questions, you can ask now." Once you leave this office, the battle begins. Once you're on the battlefield, I don't have time to explain anything, and I won't have any more specific instructions, so what you have to do is to obey orders in addition to obeying orders!"

"Yes, sir. The crowd responded in unison.

At the same time that the Xinghua Army was formulating the battle plan, on the other side, the Liangzhou Army had gradually spread and deepened in Yunzhou. However, they didn't seem to have come to rescue the people of Yunzhou, but more like the enemy army had entered the village and treated the people of Yunzhou unscrupulously.

This point made the people of Yunzhou very unbearable, and it was far beyond the expectations of the Xinghua Army. As early as when the Liangzhou army arrived in Yunzhou, in fact, the Xinghua army had already notified the people in the controlled area in advance and advised them to leave in order to avoid this head-to-head confrontation. It's just that maybe some people in Yunzhou didn't expect the huge impact, some people listened to the advice, and some people didn't.

It's just that they never thought of the rudeness of the Liangzhou army. As far as Qiu Qianjun is concerned, he actually just wants to win the war as soon as possible, and does not think much about whether they will be affected for the people, in fact, he really doesn't care about the people's will.

Because of this, he only asked his army soldiers to do everything they could to win the war, even on the battlefield, but he did not restrain his generals, let alone manage them with strict military regulations. Not only that, in order to stimulate the morale of the army and make the soldiers of the army have the strongest willingness to obey him, Qiu Qianjun even ignored some extremely bad violations of military law in order to win the hearts of the army.

For example, when a small detachment of the Liangzhou army passed through a village, a landlord and gentry in the village, in order to tie up with the Liangzhou army and protect his own well-being, not only took the initiative to order people to stand in line outside the village to meet the army, but even ordered his family to prepare a sumptuous banquet at home in advance to reward the army soldiers.

However, he took the initiative to show goodwill, not only did he not seek the protection of the Liangzhou Army for his family as he wished, but instead brought humiliation on himself and brought a catastrophe to his family.

It turned out that a lieutenant of the Liangzhou Army, who had a lack of heart and felt that the wine and food were far from enough, actually coveted the daughter of the landlord and gentry, did something that lost his conscience, and ruined the daughter of the landlord and gentry all night. Pity this delicate girl who is at the age of flowers, she can't stand such a shame, and she has sought death and life several times, washing her face with tears.

The landlords and gentry pounded their chests and did not vent their hatred, and their feelings of resentment and resentment accumulated in the fierce, and they could not be resolved, so they angrily reported to the officials. But I don't want to, this time I sued for justice, but because I was indirectly informed of the news by the captain of the Liangzhou Army, the captain simply didn't do anything and killed the whole family of the landlord and gentry, in order to kill the mouth!

After all, people died, and at such a critical moment, they had to give an explanation to the people around them. However, after several turnovers, this matter was finally suppressed by Qiu Qianjun, and he casually reported the reason why the Xinghua Army killed the people, so he wanted to settle the matter as if it had never happened.

However, Qiu Qianjun was able to hide it from the Xia State court and the dignitaries in Shucheng, but they couldn't hide it from the people. The tenants and ordinary people of the village are all concerned about this matter, and when they get such a result, they do not know that the matter is not trivial? If they continue to stay here, I am afraid that they will be the next to suffer. Therefore, the people who had not yet evacuated did not need to be reminded to flee one after another, so this matter was gradually spread all over the place.

The remaining people in the Yunzhou Basin either hid in the mountains or in the forest, avoiding the Liangzhou army as much as possible. However, in order to make sure that the situation is not clear, they do not want to hide in Xiangshan County and Guixi County, which are controlled by the Xinghua Army, lest he come over with the army of the Xia Kingdom, and they may be settled by the Autumn Queen.

In the confrontation between the two armies, the people's will is the key. Therefore, when the Xinghua Army learned that the Liangzhou Army had done such a heart-wrenching thing, it immediately seized the opportunity to vigorously publicize it in the occupied areas. Gradually, the Liangzhou army in Yunzhou made the people resentful, and it completely destroyed the people in the Yunzhou Basin who only had the desire to belong to the Xia court.

In contrast, the Xinghua Army's lack of offense against the people is even more precious.

The people's hearts are added and decreased, and the time has come for the Xinghua Empire to annex Yunzhou.

Yunzhou, a dense forest in the west.

The sky, somewhat gloomy, was cloudy.

Zhao Feiyan's heart was similar to the dark clouds in the sky, gloomy and gloomy, and she felt very uncomfortable. In fact, he wanted to fight head-on with the Liangzhou army. He was an officer who had just been sent out of the country, young, aggressive, and wanted to make military achievements.

However, as a soldier of the empire, Zhao Feiyan did not dare to disobey military orders at will. However, Zhao Feiyan still found a good place for herself.

At the edge of the dense forest, Zhao Feiyan deliberately built a sentry tower with the flag of the Xinghua Army hanging on it, specifically to attract enemy troops.

"Our third brigade, if we want to build a position here, you have to be careful!" Zhao Feiyan said to the soldiers who were constantly digging and setting traps.

Because the Liangzhou army was mainly cavalry, the Xinghua Army command required that when laying out defensive positions, cavalry traps must be arranged. Without horses, the cavalry are lambs to the slaughter.

Zhao Feiyan stood in front of the position, fantasizing that the Liangzhou army would be able to rush into the trap they had arranged.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning lit up the heavens and the earth, and with a boom, thunder rolled in.

Zhao Feiyan had to retract her mind and said to her subordinates: "It's going to rain, call it a day." ”

When the crowd heard this, they did not stop immediately.

"Sir, we still have strength!" one soldier shouted.

"Don't work when it's raining, what if you catch a cold? Do you want to kill the enemy with the cold virus?" Zhao Feiyan said angrily.

"Alright, call it a day! Sir, I'm right!" said the other junior officers, seeing that their boss was angry.

Zhao Feiyan saw that all the officers and soldiers were listening to the order, and only then did he leave the position satisfied.

"Sir, there is a situation. ”

At this time, the adjutant beside him said.

Zhao Feiyan looked at his adjutant, this adjutant was Zhao Feiyan's direct officer and Zhao Feiyan's personal soldier. He is in charge of Zhao Feiyan's walkie-talkie, delivering and answering messages.

"What's the situation?" asked Zhao Feiyan.

"On the other side of the forest, we found a lot of people fleeing. They hid in the woods, without tents, and feared that they would get drenched in the rain. The adjutant replied.

"How could they hide in the woods?" asked Zhao Feiyan suspiciously.

"They're all on the hill ahead, a small village at the bottom of the mountain. The reason why they hid in the woods was because of a troop of thieves from their village. The bands of thieves took possession of their village. The adjutant replied.

When Zhao Feiyan heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Are those thieves the Liangzhou army?"

The adjutant smiled and said, "That gang of thieves is really the Liangzhou army! Most of the soldiers of the Shu army are Yunzhou disciples, and they still have to take into account the feelings of the locals, and they don't dare to go too far." The Liangzhou army is really different, it is completely acting according to its own wishes, regardless of the life and death of the people. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me how many people they have?" Zhao Feiyan interrupted the adjutant and said.

"Outpost soldiers, they're being questioned. The adjutant replied.

Zhao Feiyan thought for a while and said: "These refugees are all poor people, they will also be the people of our empire in the future, give them some support, send some tents to the elderly and children, and a little canned food and ham." It's best to persuade them to get out of the neighborhood. ”

"Yes, sir. The adjutant replied.

After a while, Zhao Feiyan's adjutant gathered more than a dozen soldiers, carrying some supplies, and rushed over.

One hour, Zhao Feiyan got information.

Not far from them, there is a small village. The houses in the village were occupied by a group of soldiers of the Liangzhou Army. Those soldiers of the Liangzhou Army are not small. Then, the scouts of the 3rd Brigade of Officers of the Eastern Expedition also brought more detailed information through the walkie-talkie. It was a cavalry of the Liangzhou Army, with a size of more than five thousand. It is very likely that it is an ambush that wants to sneak attack the Xinghua army.

This group of ambush soldiers was discovered by Zhao Feiyan, and Zhao Feiyan naturally didn't want to let them go. These soldiers of the Liangzhou Army are all credits, he can't just look at the boiled duck and fly like this.

Zhao Feiyan thought about it again and again, and decided to notify the command. Originally, he was worried that the command would send a team to come over to grab the merit, but he didn't expect Zhao Chang to give an order. Order the 3rd Brigade to destroy the invading enemy and not let them pass.

Zhao Feiyan got the order and immediately arranged it.

At this time, it was raining, and Zhao Feiyan didn't care about the difficulty of the soldiers' activities on rainy days, so he ordered the soldiers to wear raincoats and continue to build fortifications.

"Build a few more guard towers, and then build a few guardrails behind the position, and everyone I pass by will think that we are a super military camp here!"

At this time, Zhao Feiyan was deeply afraid that the Liangzhou Military Department would know where they were. Zhao Feiyan very much hoped that the Liangzhou Army would think that he was a large military camp of the Xinghua Army and come to attack them.

At Zhao Feiyan's request, several more guard towers were erected.

The next morning, in the small village, Hadamen, the general of the Liangzhou Army Cavalry, got up under the call of his own soldiers.

"Yesterday's rain was really heavy, otherwise we would have arrived in Xiangshan County a long time ago. How far we are from Xiangshan County. Hadamen yawned as he said to his subordinate generals.

"General, we are still two hundred miles away from Xiangshan County. Today, we should be able to reach Xiangshan County. A youngster replied.

One of the soldiers handed Hadamen a flatbread with mutton. The flatbread is the dry food of the army, and the mutton is the meat left over from killing the sheep in the village yesterday.

Hadamen naturally took the steamed bun, took a big bite, smashed it and ate it.

"The General doesn't care when we arrive, we can't afford to slow down anyway. If it's slow, the general won't spare us...... Wait a while, and the whole army will hurry up. Hadamen replied as he ate.

"Yes, General!" replied the young generals.

"Yesterday, what about the people? haven't they come back?" asked Hadaman.

"Those mud legs have long since disappeared!" disgruntled the soldiers. The people ran away, no one served, and the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army felt bad.

"Okay, don't worry about those Yunzhou people, they are different from us Liangzhou people, a group of soft eggs...... However, when marching later, you still have to be careful, it is inevitable that there will be no spies among those villagers. Hadamen said. (To be continued.) )
