Chapter 385: Deployment Requirements
Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou developed very well in Zhangshui, especially after the Battle of Liaoshui, many of the people who fled back from Liaoshui became black households, which were too much for other state officials to avoid.
But they didn't think so, the fleeing people were priceless treasures in their eyes, so they secretly funded it, and recruited thousands of people in less than two months.
If it weren't for the fear of attracting the attention of the imperial court, they would have been able to accommodate more people.
"General Dou, I thought that when I first arrived in Youzhou, I would let us charge into battle as cannon fodder, but now it seems that the governor of the vanguard still really values our soldiers and horses, we have played a big role, and the results are reported, and the credit is indispensable." Liu Wuzhou said optimistically.
Dou Jiande was not as optimistic as Liu Wuzhou, and carefully took the plan that Li De had just sent and looked at it repeatedly.
"Let us go to Shakou Pass for arming, what do you think?"
Liu Wuzhou came to see the plan, not only the plan but also a request for the transfer of troops and horses, looked at it again and again, and suddenly smiled, and the already optimistic attitude looked even happier.
"General Dou, you haven't found that Li Dudu's intention is obviously a suspicious strategy, and letting us go to Shakou Pass to deploy defense is better than letting us be pioneers." Liu Wuzhou directly named the matter.
Dou Jiande thought about it for so long and didn't see the clues, but Liu Wuzhou saw it, and he was actually not in a good mood.
"Tell me what's going on." Dou Jiande didn't jump anymore, and immediately asked, he brought the most people, if they all confessed here, he would hurt his vitality, and all the property in the family would be scattered.
Liu Wuzhou looked down on Dou Jiande very much in his heart, but at this time, his face was a little flattering.
"I'll live, five thousand soldiers and horses, separate to Shakou Pass, and the place where they are stationed is not only one Shakou Pass, but also a deserted village twenty miles away, as far as I know, there is no one left behind, even the Northern Barbarians will not go over to plunder."
"What does that mean, is there anything wrong with choosing two locations to be stationed in?" Dou Jiande asked suspiciously.
Liu Wu Zhouxin said that it was really a mallet, it was obviously prepared for the deployment of troops, and it was so obvious that it was useless except for some wealth in the family.
"Two places, one bright and one dark, the enemy will stare at Shakou Pass, when the time comes, we will use it to hide troops from the deserted village chief, and at the critical time, we can surprise the enemy, so that the enemy thinks that our soldiers and horses surpass them, and our task will be completed." Liu Wuzhou explained.
Dou Jiande was still very puzzled on his face.
Liu Wuzhou saw it, and he had to explain the matter carefully, otherwise this General Dou really wouldn't understand.
Half an hour later, Dou Jiande finally understood what was going on, and used the two locations to transfer troops back and forth to confuse the enemy.
"If you say that earlier, General Ben just understood." Dou Jiande thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it after all.
In the main tent, the lieutenants were reporting to Li De, and they were all very serious, very serious, because after they transferred the five thousand soldiers and horses, they were going to plan for the next step, and they all wanted to know what they were going to do next.
"Next, we need a vanguard army to take the initiative to go to Youzhou City, first bring two thousand soldiers and horses over, the task is to enter Youzhou City, who wants to go?" Li De said.
Shi Huaiyi, Ding Qilin did not speak, and Situ En, Wei Xun, He Bida and others opened their mouths to receive this task.
"Okay, remember to behave well on the road, put on a vanguard posture, and don't pay attention to the enemy's scouts when you see them, just let them watch." Li Dedao.
"Yes." There were not so many lieutenants who could lead troops into the city, and finally chose to let He Bida and Situ En bring 2,000 soldiers and horses to support.
"Governor, Youzhou City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the people of the Northern Barbarians will never want to see our people enter the city, and there will inevitably be obstacles on the way, what should I do when the time comes?" Hebida asked.
Li De was relieved that he was not mistaken, He Bida would become a general in command of the army in the future, and he would be able to think about the overall situation, and he did not ask how to defend but pointed out their role as a vanguard.
"The enemy will be tempted, and you have 100,000 soldiers and horses behind you, what do you think?"
Li De threw the question back again.
He Bida was just about to answer after thinking about it, when he heard Situ En beside him say first: "Of course I fought with them, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses in the town, so naturally I don't need to be afraid of them." ”
There was silence in the main tent.
"Governor, am I not right?" Situ En asked with some confusion.
"Fight, of course, you have to fight, but when you encounter the enemy, the choice is not to attack but to retreat." Li De said.
"Governor, how can you choose to retreat, how can you have 100,000 soldiers and horses who don't have to be afraid of the enemy." Situ En wondered.
"That's why we should retreat." Hebida explained aloud.
Li De heard that He Bida really understood, so he asked him to continue to explain.
"If the vanguard has 100,000 soldiers and horses, I will not hesitate to give the order to attack when I encounter the enemy, but don't forget that 100,000 people are reinforcements sent by the imperial court, even our vanguard, steady and steady is the fighting style of the imperial court's soldiers and horses." Hebida said.
Situ En patted his forehead, and then suddenly realized that the other party didn't know the fighting style of their vanguard at all, but they were very familiar with the style of the imperial court's soldiers and horses, and they didn't seek merit but no fault.
If you really meet and attack, I'm afraid the other party will be suspicious.
"Okay, you remember to pay attention to the details, let the soldiers and horses correct it well, and carry out the operation in a few days." Li Dedao.
When everyone dispersed, Li Decai asked Zhang Chuchen: "Isn't there any news about Qingxuan and Xiuning yet?" ”
"Scouts have been sent out, there is no news yet, and the time is only these two days." Zhang Chuchen replied.
Li De sat down again, and when there was no one else, he asked, "How is the matter of the Holy Maiden of the Moro Kingdom arranged?" ”
"Don't worry, those female assassins are very cooperative, the intelligence network within the vanguard has already taken shape, there are currently less than thirty people, the candidates are carefully selected, the disciples are innocent, but they are inexperienced and need time to practice." Zhang Chuchen replied.
The intelligence network is what Li De has always wanted to develop, and at present, the affairs of the intelligence network are all in charge of Zhang Chuchen and Xiao Mei, and it must be seen that several women in the family are very low-key, in fact, they all have their own tasks to do.
Just like Zhang Chuchen and Xiao Mei are the best candidates to carry out espionage, of course, let them be the management.
The dark web established by Li De already has express news, which is a possible way of information, and Zhang Chuchen has always been helping to take care of it, and later Xiao Mei joined the two and cooperated very well.
