Chapter 597: On the March

Gao Yuan rubbed his temples, looked at another stack of official documents that had just been delivered in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in distress, the oil lamp on the big case was not bright, it could only illuminate a small place in front of him, which made Gao Yuan even doubt that he would get myopia in the long run, in this era, there are no myopia glasses, and there is no laser treatment, once the eye is broken, it can only be suffered.

But he couldn't help but insist, although he had left Jishi City, there was still an endless stream of official documents about where Kuaima came from, some of which had already been dealt with, and some of which he had to make a final decision. Even if the official documents that had been processed had been made into the form of a briefing for him to read, the huge amount of money still gave Gao Yuan a headache.

The territory is bigger, the power is bigger, it seems to be beautiful, but the burden on his shoulders is heavier, and the past leisure can no longer be found, so he can only work so hard day after day.

Everyone is vying for power, but only those who sit in this position understand that the height is not cold!

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing, he was really hypocritical, if he didn't sit in this position, his own life would not be his own decision at all, life and death, rich and poor, manipulated in the hands of others like a puppet.

People, when they don't get it, they think about it day and night, and once they get it, they are pantothenic acid again.

Cheer up and reopen an official document, this is your own task, but also your own responsibility, although now I no longer look at people's eyes, but above my head, there are still countless mountains pressing, but not to mention the internal affairs, just the external environment, it is enough to cheer yourself up, the Donghu war is imminent, the Yan court is eyeing the side, not to mention, in the far west, Qiang Qin is determined to sweep the world, how can there be time to let yourself be sad.

The pen walks the dragon god. Quickly reviewed one official document after another.

The curtain was lifted, and Shangguan Hong walked in with a tray, "Governor, take a break, let's review it after dinner!" ”

Gao Yuan hummed, closed the official document in his hand, looked at the bowl of braised pork and a plate of wild vegetables on the tray, and couldn't help laughing: "It's quite hearty, this wild vegetable is fresh." You went to dig it? ”

Shangguan Hong said with a smile: "It's not just me, in addition to the guards on duty, the whole staff of the guard battalion is dispatched, and I have been eating meat every day for half a month, and I am tired of eating crookedly." ”

"I can't help it!" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "When you go out, you can follow Jane, but fortunately, you have already walked half the way, and it will be good to wait until you reach Pioneer City." Where Xu Yuan has done a good job, not only planting tens of thousands of acres of grain, but also a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. Let's eat enough. ”

"It's a pity that this season's crops are gone!" Shangguan Hong sighed: "The war can be a month or two later, harvest this season's crops, the city of the prophet, and the city of ten thousand cities." There is also Dayan City under construction, which can be regarded as really firmly established, now. But it's all wasted. ”

"Yu Wenke can naturally think of this, so he launched an offensive during this time period." Gao Yuan shook his head, "How can everything be as people want, but it's okay, they can decide when the battle will start, let us decide when the war will end, and when they come, don't think about leaving." Many of the fields reclaimed by Xu Yuan are all raw land, and there is really a shortage of fertilizer, so burying these Donghu people who came to the field will surely have a good harvest next year. ”

Speaking of this, his face also looked a little hideous.

"The Donghu people have invested a lot of money this time, and the cavalry alone has gathered 20,000, and in addition, there are 10,000 foot soldiers! In the Hetao Plain, our forces were greatly outnumbered. Shangguan Hong was a little worried.

"Fighting is never about who has more people." Gao Yuan looked very relaxed, "The cavalry of the Donghu people comes from several tribes, among them, many tribes used to be feuding, entangled together, how much combat effectiveness can be exerted, it is still a problem, maybe there will be many contradictions within themselves, ten fingers, only by pinching together, can exert the greatest strength, otherwise, it is the result of our broken fingers one by one, as for those infantry, the Qi people have trained them for half a year, and their combat effectiveness is very doubtful." And their infantry is mixed with a large number of slaves, and this is an opportunity that we can take advantage of. ”

"The people of Qi really deserve to be killed!" Shangguan Hong's face was full of murderous anger, "It's actually a favor for outsiders." ”

"This matter, it is impossible to put it on the surface, the people of Qi will not admit it at all, even if you catch those Qi people, Qi Guo can only say lightly that these people have already defected from Qi State." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Then let them go?" Shangguan Hong was indignant.

"Spare them?" Gao Yuan chuckled and said: "I'm not so tolerant, don't worry, I have already arranged this matter, don't worry about it." By the way, the swallow hasn't come back yet? ”

"General Helan took her group of black-clothed guards out to practice, and they haven't come back yet." Shangguan Hongdao.

"So concerned? It seems that she really has high hopes for the black-clothed guard. Gao Yuan nodded, "Shangguan, you are also a veteran of the battlefield, do you think that the red-clothed guard will win and who will lose against the black-clothed guard?" Who is stronger? ”

"Of course it's our red-clothed guard!" Shangguan Hong said without thinking.

"Tell me about your basis, but you can't just say that you are the commander of the pro-guard battalion." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

Shangguan Hong was slightly embarrassed, the selection and training of the guard battalion were all carried out by him, and he naturally knew the combat effectiveness of these guards, and he was also full of confidence. But listening to the meaning of the governor, he wants him to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of these two armies, so he can't talk about it casually, but he has to lay out the facts and reason.

The red-clothed guards of the pro-guard battalion didn't need to think about it, it was brought out by himself, Shangguan Hong's mind immediately carefully recalled every detail that the black-clothed guards showed during training, but every time he thought about it, he couldn't help but turn white. Until he figured it out and raised his head to meet Gao Yuan's smiling eyes, he couldn't help but be extremely embarrassed.

When the two armies face each other, the red-clothed guard will naturally win, even if it is only the same number as the black-clothed guard, but the problem is that the price of victory seems to be something he is unwilling to pay. Every soldier of the red-clothed guard is a thousand-handed, experienced in a hundred battles, no matter what army they are placed in, they are the leaders in the army, needlessly sacrificing one, Shangguan Hong will be a pity, they will jump to their feet, and the black-clothed guards, who have only been in the army for half a year, are all dolls who have not been on the battlefield, their personal combat effectiveness, in front of the red-clothed guards, seems to be negligible, but forming that kind of battle formation, it is indestructible.

Four hundred red-clothed guards, if you want to defeat the four hundred black-clothed guards under Helanyan now, the price you have to pay is only afraid that you will have to kill more than half of the battle, this price is not what Shangguan Hong is willing to pay, because the red-clothed guards are not cats and dogs, they can be picked out at any time, but the black-clothed guards are really cats and dogs, if they die, they can add one lightly, and they don't care about casualties at all.

"Got it?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.

"Got it!" Shangguan Hong said a little dejectedly: "Helan Sect Head, what capable people can't, the end will bow down." When I go back, I will definitely ask the head of Helan for advice. ”

"Don't be presumptuous!" Gao Yuan looked at Shangguan Hong, who was a little wilted, "The red-clothed guards are different from the black-clothed guards, and the ways of fighting are very different, in fact, in my opinion, the strength of the red-clothed guards is much stronger than the black-clothed guards, and the black-clothed guards have great limitations, only when they are confronted by the enemy's cavalry, they will play the greatest role, and against long-range weapons, strong armor foot soldiers, or special terrain battles, they are too bad." They are just the product of the swallows that they have painstakingly built to deal with the cavalry. And you red-clothed guards are all-weather warriors, and any terrain and any enemy, in front of you, are all the same. ”

Shangguan Hong also understood at this time, knowing that his previous thoughts were involuntarily led into the ditch by the governor. "But the Black Guards are what we need most at this time. Best of all, it's easy to replenish and it's super fast! He thought for a moment, and then said: "With such a wonderful point, our cavalry will no longer have to rely on the Huns, and this can also solve a great hidden worry." ”

Gao Yuan's eyes flashed, staring at Shangguan Hong, and the smile on his face had disappeared. Shangguan Hong's heart jumped, knowing that he had missed something, he couldn't help but hang his head.

After a while, Gao Yuancai said: "There are some things, don't talk nonsense, if your words reach the ears of the Hun generals, it will inevitably cause more trouble. Now whether it is the Huns or the Yan people, they are all close comrades-in-arms of my expedition to Dongfu, brothers, you must keep this in mind."

"Subordinates understood!" Shangguan Hong nodded again and again.

"Let's eat it later, and when the swallow comes back, I'll serve it again, and I'll eat it with her, by the way, if there is any such wild vegetable, get a little more, and make a soup." Gao Yuandao.

"Do you need wine?"

"No need, alcohol is forbidden in the army, as the commander-in-chief, how can I know the law and break the law?" Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "Go out with me, take a breath, after approving the official document for this hour, my brain is a little confused."

When the two of them got out of the big tent, they heard bursts of cheers not far away, looking at the direction from which the sound came, but it was where the red-clothed guards were, at this time, a large group of red-clothed guards were surrounding a large circle, shouting and jumping, I don't know what they were busy with.

"What are they doing?" Gao Yuan raised his chin.

Shangguan Hong glanced at it and saw that it was a company of Yang Dasha's territory, so he already understood it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Do you remember those two recruits who you personally named and transferred to the personal guard battalion?"

"I personally named you?" Gao Yuan was a little surprised, he really forgot that Shangguan Hong's reminder immediately brought up two immature faces in his mind.

"One is called Plum Blossom, the name is quite strange, and the other is called Wu Ya, right?"

"Mei Hua, Wu Ya!" Shangguan Hong corrected: "These two little guys are also interesting, don't you know, when these two people went to report to Guo Laofu, they actually bribed Guo Laofeng!"

"So Guo Laofu threw the two of them to where Yang Dasha was?" Hearing the string song and knowing the elegant meaning, Gao Yuan suddenly understood the ins and outs of the matter. (To be continued......)
