September 25, 137 New Calendar, the Allied Battalion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yesterday, 30,000 infantry sent by Tengyuan arrived at the coalition camp. According to the initial deployment, the role of these 30,000 people was to act as a deterrent on the southern front, so as to prevent the Xiaohu family dog from jumping over the wall and forcibly breaking through to the south. Now that the Xiaohu army has put on a stubborn posture, and the coalition army has no plan to break the enemy, Maier can only bring these 30,000 men under his command to increase his offensive strength.

From the first time he led his troops to the present, Maier has achieved many proud achievements. Retreat from the enemy in the 29th Village, put down the rebellion in the 29th Village, surprise attack on the Black Shrine, and the battle of Yaolin City was a great victory, and two months ago he captured a stronghold of the Xiaohu Army without losing a single soldier and captured tens of thousands of enemy soldiers. This achievement made Mel's prestige in the army unmatched, and even if Maier asked all his soldiers to abandon their weapons and armor and attack the enemy stronghold, the soldiers would not hesitate to carry out his orders.

In the minds of the soldiers, Mel was almost deified. The record that circulated in the army led the soldiers to think that Maier was good at leading his troops in battle, but in reality this was not the case. Mel can lead troops and lead them into battle, but he is not a full-fledged commander. He was able to win battles not because he was well commanded, but for very complex reasons.

The reason why he was able to easily defeat the Witch Maiden in the Twenty-Nine Village was because the Witch's tactics were wrong from the start. They naively thought that with their strength, they could easily capture Nami Castle and become famous all over the world. If the witch just grabbed a vote and ran away as usual, the battle would surely become a dark history for him to look back on because of Myer's indecision. So after the battle, Meier's style of command changed, and his decision-making became decisive and aggressive, and he no longer hesitated as he did at the beginning.

The defeat of the rebels in Village 29 was not the work of Maier alone, although he used Leiting's magic to demoralize the rebels and cause chaos among the rebels, but the root cause of the rebels' defeat was the division of troops, which gave the officers and soldiers a chance to defeat them individually. In both battles, the commanders of the enemy forces were unprofessional and made fatal mistakes in front of Meyer. If Maier still can't win the war, then he can give up the idea of leading troops to fight, because he doesn't have that talent at all.

During the surprise attack on the Black Shrine, Maier took a big risk. If he hadn't been helped by Xiaoxiao, it would have been impossible for the bandit coalition to capture the Black Shrine at such a small cost. During the Battle of Yaolin City, Maier took a new tactic he had just learned to the battlefield where the enemy had an absolute advantage in strength, which was quite dangerous. As a result, his tactics were not entirely successful either. His underestimation of the enemy's combat strength caused the lord's convoy at that time to pay huge losses, and a mature commander would never do such a thing.

As for the recent victory, it was definitely the last thing Maier wanted to mention. In Mayer's view, these victories are not records at all, but black history. Mistakes were made in every operation he commanded, and some of them were fatal. After the last battle, Maier reflected deeply on his actions and realized his shortcomings. He found himself a somewhat idealistic about the situation, which was not a good thing for the commander.

Maier did not dare to lead any more troops because of this incident, but he felt that he needed to strengthen the study of military thought, so that he could mature as soon as possible. After Wei Xu came to the camp, Maier communicated with him several times. He found that Wei Xu, as a general who had only won one battle so far, had much better military literacy than himself.

For his own failures, Wei Xu always accepts them calmly. He told Mel about what his father, Veran, had taught him, and that he had told his son that a general would surely taste defeat unless he retired after his first victory and never led his troops into battle again. There are no victorious generals on the battlefield, as long as you do your best to command the battle, defeat is not a shame.

Wei Lan is a famous general who can compete with Xiaohu Tengyuan in the surrounding areas of Shangjin County. During the 23 years he was in charge of the military power of Kamijin Prefecture, the coalition formed by Kamijin Prefecture, Riya Shrine, and Twenty-nine Villages did not fail to defeat once in a foreign war. He has defeated the invasion of the Elt Kingdom, the invasion of the Xiaohu family, the invasion of the Egus Kingdom, and the invasion of the Bujin Republic.

It is often said that Veran has never tasted defeat in his life, and Maier thinks so. But Wei Xu told Maier that Wei Lan told him about his experience of leading troops to fight in war when he was a teenager. At that time, Wei Lan had a very low status in the family because of his honest personality. He has a good relationship with his brother Wei Lin, who is very clever and sensible, and is deeply loved by the elders of the family. Wei Lin saw that Wei Lan practiced martial arts all day and read military books, so he asked the family elders to make Wei Lan a middle-level officer.

One day, Wei Lan received a task. His superiors asked him to lead his headquarters to clear out a bandit stronghold in the southern part of Shangjin County. That was Wei Lan's first formation, he set out with five hundred men, and when he returned, there were less than sixty left, and he couldn't even find the shadow of the robber stronghold.

There is no doubt that this is a big defeat. The patriarch of the family angrily revoked him from his position, leaving him to think behind closed doors and only eat one meal a day. Wei Lin secretly brought food to his brother every night to comfort him not to be discouraged, and there was still a chance to turn the tables in the future. Wei Lan was inspired by his brother to study the art of war and practice martial arts even harder.

Wei Lan talked about this, and by the way, he told Wei Xu something about Wei Lin. Welling was the most respected new generation in the family, and in the eyes of the Wei family at that time, Welling was a perfect young man. He is motivated, talented, studious, smart and sensible, so that before he reached adulthood, he was designated as the next county minister.

But it is such a so-called "perfect youth" who has an unknown habit. Welling was fond of gambling, and he often disguised himself as a commoner and gambled for money in the black gambling houses of the county town of Shangjin. Welling gambles with mixed wins and losses, sometimes big wins, sometimes big losses. Welling doesn't care about winning or losing, he just indulges in the thrill of gambling and that's it.

Only Wei Lan knew about this matter, and after he told his son about his uncle's troubles, he immediately taught Wei Xu with a serious face that he must not publicize this matter. Wei Xu was as honest as his father when he was a child, and he kept this secret in his heart until now.

Now that Wehrin was dead, Wei Xu felt the need to hide the matter any longer, so he told it to Mel.

Later, the county magistrate at that time was killed while looking for flowers and asking willows, and since all the witnesses were killed, no one knew who killed him. At that time, Wei Lin was already an adult, so the family elder asked him to succeed him as the county governor of Shangjin County. After Wei Lin succeeded as the county commander, he did not immediately promote Wei Lan, but waited until the next year when the Bujin Republic went to war with Rimi Shrine, and appointed Wei Lan as the commander of a certain unit of the Shangjin County Army.

At that time, I didn't think about Wei Lan, because Wei Lan was too inconspicuous. As a result, the troops led by Wei Lan shone in the battle, and the limelight even overshadowed the Manyun Department that attacked the Bujin army's main formation. The commander of the Bujin army sincerely said after the war that Man Yun's surprise attack did bring him a lot of trouble, but he did not retreat because of Man Yun's surprise attack, but because Wei Lan's troops broke through the right flank of the Bujin army from the front, which greatly shook the morale of the Bujin army. In order to avoid the rout of the whole army, the commander of the Bujin army ordered the troops to withdraw from the battlefield in an orderly manner.

That war was an invasion of the Republic of Bukin, and the withdrawal of the Republic of Bujin meant that the Ira people were victorious. After that, Wei Lin did his best to build momentum for Wei Lan, make him famous, and then naturally grasped the military power of Shangjin County. Wei Lan's performance did not disappoint Wei Lin either, and after he took control of the military power of Kamijin Prefecture, he thwarted all the attacks of foreign enemies and did not let the Ira people lose an inch of land.

Wei Lan died of illness at the age of fifty. In fact, to be precise, Wei Lan died of illness because of wound infection. At that time, Wei Lan was patrolling the border defense, and his palm was accidentally scratched by a rusty iron nail that was exposed. Wei Lan didn't think it was a big deal, so he bandaged it casually and continued to inspect the troops. It didn't take long for Wei Lan's wounds to begin to deteriorate, and his physical condition took a sharp turn for the worse. When Wei Lin learned of this, he immediately asked the shrine to send a shrine maiden to treat Wei Lan. But before the shrine maiden arrived, Wei Lan died.

When Wei Lan died, Wei Xu was not yet an adult. Wei Lan got married relatively late, because his wife was weak, and Wei Xu was born relatively late. After Wei Xu was born, Wei Lan's wife's physical condition deteriorated day by day, but she could barely survive under the conditioning of the witch maiden. Wei Lan's death was a big blow to her, and she died on the day she learned the news.

Wei Xu lost his parents in a very short period of time, which was a big blow to him. After Wei Lan died, Wei Lin took Wei Xu into his own home, and treated him better than his own children. Welling often found time to educate Wei Xu to become an upright and reliable man like his father.

However, Wei Lin's discipline of Wei Xu was too harsh, and because Wei Lan said things like "red face and bad water", Wei Lin did not allow Wei Xu to contact women who were close to his age. The women who took care of Wei Xu were much older than him, and in such a growing environment, it was not surprising that Wei Xu was prone to becoming interested in older and beautiful women.

When it comes to the topic of childhood, Wei Xu's tone is full of complaints. Wei Lan and Wei Lin were very strict with Wei Xu, and he never played freely like other peers in his childhood. Because he is the son of a famous general in Kamijin County, and he is still the only son, everyone has high expectations for him. Wei Xu always felt that he was different when he was a child, because everyone said so, so he could live a truly different life with peace of mind.

As soon as you can speak, you have to learn those difficult to remember characters, first in your own language, and later in foreign languages. After that, it is a military book that reads like a book from heaven at first, and only when you grow up can you understand its meaning. Practicing martial arts is a daily necessity, and there are special people responsible for supervising Wei Xu's practice of martial arts. When you're a little older, you'll have to practice equestrianism, fight real people, have mock battles on the map with your teacher, and deal with spot checks by Wei Lan or Wei Lin.

Wei Xu's experience resonated deeply with Maier. His life in the mountains was similar to that of Wei Xu, and his growth environment was even harsher than Wei Xu's. He didn't see anyone other than his family, and he had been studying and practicing various skills since he became sensible. This life lasted until the age of sixteen, and after being driven down the mountain by Gray, Maier felt lost at first, but it was not long before he had a feeling of joy as a bird broke out of its cage.

Wei Xu has also felt this way. He will never forget the feeling he felt when he went out alone for the first time, when he was just an adult. He was so alien to the outside world that he stared in astonishment at the sight of the children running and frolicking in the streets, completely unaware of what they were doing.

Why do they run around the streets and don't study at home?

Wei Xu could not understand the behavior of these children. He thought as he walked forward, wandering aimlessly around the county town. Dressed in brocade clothes and handsome in appearance, he is extremely eye-catching on the street. The girls in the spring period are looking at him with expectant eyes, and some of the bold ones will take the initiative to talk to him. Those who dare to talk to Wei Xu are all well-dressed rich girls, and no matter how beautiful the daughters of poor families are, they don't dare to go to the side of the rich son.

For the first time, Wei Xu experienced the difference between dignity and humility. When he accosted the poor with curiosity, they either looked frightened or flattered, giving a very unnatural feeling. He wouldn't have encountered this situation when talking to a rich person, but after learning Wei Xu's true identity, the rich person he talked to would also become restrained.

Maier had a similar feeling when he first came down the mountain. Don't look at the Byrens family living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, they are not poor at all. Gray didn't prepare enough for Mel not to have enough coils, not because he lacked money, but because he wanted to test his son's ability. Although there are few coils, Meier is dressed quite elegantly when he goes down the mountain, and he looks like the son of a rich family. In addition, he knows a lot of things that nobles know, so he will be looked down upon everywhere he goes.

Because of similar experiences, the more the two talked, the more speculative they became, and they hated to see each other late. After this, Wei Xu completely turned to Meier, and Meier no longer doubted Wei Xu. Because of this, Maier made a decision on September 25.

He handed over the 30,000 infantry sent by Tengyuan to Wei Xu's command, a decision that surprised Salin very much, and Wei Xu was also moved. In order to repay Maier's trust in him, he proposed a very bold offensive plan.
