902. Discussing the military
And the crowd came to the tent of the handsome.
This time, Liu Hongyi personally invited Wang Ziqian to sit down.
Naturally, everyone's attitude towards him is no longer as suspicious and aggressive as before.
"Haha!"
After Liu Hongyi sat down on the main seat, he laughed twice and said: "Ziqian abandoned the secret and surrendered to the light, and our army killed so many masters of the Broken Army Academy, our army can expect a big victory!" ”
Everyone in the tent smiled and nodded.
Zhang Hongwei looked at Wang Ziqian, and did not hesitate to praise, and said: "Brother Ziqian has the common people in his heart, which is really righteous. ”
Wang Ziqian just chuckled at this and said, "Ziqian just never dared to forget the help of the villagers in my heart, and I really don't deserve to be praised by the general like this." ”
Zhang Hongwei finally introduced himself this time, "Zi Qianmo calls me that again, my name is Zhang Hongwei, and I am currently the commander of the Tianji Army." If you don't dislike it, you can call me Brother Zhang in the future. ”
He should be only slightly older than Wang Ziqian.
And the friendship between men is so wonderful. As long as you look at each other, it is natural to call each other brothers.
"It turned out to be Commander Zhang Hongwei, who has admired his name for a long time."
The prince smiled and said: "I have heard in Shuzhong that there is a magic arrow general in the Great Song Dynasty, and there is no false hair, but I didn't expect to see it today but I don't know it, it's really ...... Sin. ”
When the people in the tent heard him say this, they laughed again.
Zhang Hongwei said modestly: "Now there are countless sharpshooters in my Great Song Army, and my archery technique is almost useless!" ”
It's a good time to talk and laugh, and everyone talks about business.
Wang Ziqian can also be regarded as a preliminary acquaintance with the generals in this tent and Hong Wutian, Yue Yue and others.
As soon as he got down to business, Liu Hongyi's eyes looked at Wang Ziqian and asked, "Ziqian Xian's nephew, dare to ask how many Dali soldiers are there in Hengshanzhai at this time?" ”
Wang Ziqian did not hesitate, and replied directly: "Chi Fenggu and I each led nearly 100,000 soldiers, if those coachmen and miscellaneous servants are not counted, there should be 13 or 40,000 people." ”
And the rest of the people were lost in the previous attack on the camp. Not to mention more, there are 60,000 or 70,000 people who are afraid.
Of course, this number, as long as the Song army clears up the battlefield, Liu Hongyi and others will be able to get the approximate number.
Liu Hongyi's question is just an introduction, and what I really want to ask is not this.
After hearing Wang Ziqian's reply, he immediately asked: "There are still thirteen or forty thousand troops and horses, and Zi Qianxian's nephew thinks that Chi Fenggu will continue to go out of the city to attack us?" ”
Wang Ziqian pondered for a moment before replying, "Probably not." ”
His eyes swept over the people in the tent, and he sat down and said: "I and the army under the command of Chi Fenggu are all gathered from all prefectures, counties, towns and departments in Dali, and the composition is quite mixed. And these people form their own groups, although I used to be the main general, but in fact, the guys below are not obedient to me, but they have their own ghosts, and they can take advantage, and they are passing the buck to each other in a tough battle. Come to think of it, the situation in the Chi Feng Drum Army is similar to mine, otherwise he would not have led only 20,000 forbidden troops to attack the camp last night, it must be that those tribal soldiers were afraid of being beaten and were unwilling to fight such a tough battle again. ”
Speaking of this, the prince chuckled dryly, "And now, although I have thrown myself into the Great Song Dynasty, it is not easy for Chi Fenggu to order those soldiers under my command. He wanted to gather these people enough to make him tired, and he would definitely not have the energy to go out of the city to attack the camp again in a short time. Even if he wanted to attack, he had to initially establish his prestige in the hearts of those people. ”
When Liu Hongyi and the others heard this, their expressions quietly relaxed a lot.
If Chi Fenggu comes out to attack the camp again regardless of the cost, although the camp is fully equipped with firearms, I am afraid that it will be a hard battle again.
Liu Hongyi asked again: "Then if we wait for tens of thousands of reinforcements to arrive and destroy the Hengshan Cottage, how much do you think the chances of victory can be achieved?" ”
The prince said: "The odds are sixty percent, but ...... If you want to break the city, the damage will inevitably be heavy. ”
"Why?"
Liu Hongyi asked.
The estimate given by Wang Ziqian obviously made him not very satisfied.
Everyone in the tent also looked at Wang Ziqian.
After all, he is the one who really knows the strength of the Dali soldiers in Hengshanzhai best.
Wang Ziqian said: "Although the Dali army failed to attack the camp three times under the leadership of me and Chi Fenggu, it was defeated by the strong firearms in the camp, and the defeat was due to the generals who led the people to resist to the death. If it were an ordinary army, I am afraid that it would have been defeated by us a long time ago. Speaking from the heart, those tribal soldiers don't say it first, in fact, the Dali forbidden army is not weak. At present, although there are not many hot air balloons in Hengshanzhai, there are countless artillery trucks, etc., and our army really has to pay a lot of losses if it wants to break the city. After all...... That's an army of hundreds of thousands......"
Liu Hongyi and the others were silent.
And the prince suddenly said: "It is not easy to destroy them, but ...... It is not difficult to drive them out of the Song Territory. ”
A smile spread across his face.
Liu Hongyi was slightly moved, "The siege must be lacking?" Shock them with a grenadier force? ”
That's a good idea.
As long as those Dali troops are frightened, they will not see much hope, and cut off the transportation of grain and grass in the west of Hengshanzhai. The Dali army in the city will inevitably break through and return to China.
When Wang Ziqian heard this, he still shook his head and said, "No." It doesn't take a single shot to get them out of the army. ”
"Oh?"
Liu Hongyi was even more moved.
There was also a glint in the eyes of everyone in the tent.
Zhu Haiwang took a light breath, as if thinking of something, and suddenly said: "Brother Ziqian's intentions, could it be...... Heart-to-heart? ”
Wang Ziqian glanced at Zhu Haiwang with some surprise, probably didn't expect Zhu Haiwang to have such an opinion.
Then he nodded and said, "Chi Fenggu and I have been studying in the Guigu Academy for more than ten years, and with my understanding of him, he is quite stable, as long as there is room for it, he only thinks about everything to seek stability." If the generals lead the army with me to the outside of Hengshanzhai and then throw the news that I have surrendered to the Song Dynasty into the city, the morale of the army in the city, which is already chaotic because of consecutive defeats, will inevitably be even more chaotic. With his temperament, nine times out of ten he will choose to lead the army back to Dali. ”
Zhang Hongwei frowned slightly when he heard this, "If that's the case, after he leads the army back, he won't be dealt with by that Qilin military law?" ”
"No, it won't."
Wang Ziqian shook his head and smiled: "This is why I want to go to the city." I voted for Song, and Chi Fenggu won't blame me for all the blame for this battle? ”
Zhang Hongwei said: "But I heard that Duan Qilin is also a great talent, can't he see it?" ”
The prince said: "I can't see that I won't really take the pool wind drum." If you don't dispose of him, it will make Chi Fenggu grateful. Disposed of him, but it may have chilled the hearts of my brothers and sisters. Throughout the battle of Song and Li, Dali has been defeated in successive battles, and even Qin Han was repulsed when he led the army to attack Leizhou, if it is easy to be disposed of because of defeat, who will dare to easily lead the army in the Guigu Academy in the future? ”
He shook his head slightly, and said with some indignation: "In terms of the talent of the soldiers, in the Guigu Academy, there is indeed no one who can compare with Qin Han......"
"You can't either?"
Liu Hongyi asked with a chuckle.
In fact, Wang Ziqian's insight just now had already surprised him.
These disciples of the Guigu Academy Palace are indeed very good.
With the prince's dry temperament, he actually nodded at this time, "No." I argued with him several times in the academy and never won. ”
Liu Hongyi and others were a little emotional.
Zhu Haiwang said: "I have heard that the emperor said that Qin Han and his people have no last resort, but unfortunately, they can't serve my Great Song Dynasty." Heart, it's too vicious. ”
The prince said: "Ci is not in charge of the army. The people who came out of the Guigu Academy, although they were all as ruthless as Qin Han, were almost the same. ”
Then he brought the topic back to the topic, looked at Liu Hongyi and said: "Is the pacification envoy planning to drive back the Dali army, or is it ...... Want to destroy them all? ”
"Sixty percent ......"
Liu Hongyi groaned slightly, looked at Zhang Hongwei, and said, "This matter, otherwise let's ask the emperor for instructions first?" ”
Zhang Hongwei nodded slightly.
If it is an attack on Hengshanzhai, no one can say how much it will cost. And the enemy that the Great Song Dynasty faced was not only this Dali army.
There is also the Yuan Dynasty in the north, and Liu Hongyi certainly doesn't dare to make up their minds like this.
Not long after, Liu Hongyi personally wrote it, and there were carrier pigeons flying up in the barracks, heading towards Changsha City.
Inside the Hengshan cottage.
Chi Fenggu had already gathered his troops and horses, but he was waiting, but he never saw any news from the Song army camp.
This made him gradually feel an ominous feeling in his heart.
