All the way to the west.

Chen Mu's 1,000 new recruits, although they lacked training, were also neatly organized, and they looked like a bit of an elite division. Because in this army, there is an experienced veteran - Zhang Cripple.

The cripple is still the lame, he continues to pretend to be lame, Chen Mu originally planned to take the lame man to meet the son, but he said that if I want to see him, I will build Tang Qiong, and I will not see Tang Zhen.

The old thing is quite stubborn, Chen Mu doesn't argue with him, at this time Chen Mu is shocked by Zhang Han's progress, Zhang Han said that he borrowed a measuring rod from Shi Jinchong to test his combat power, and he has reached the sixth grade.

Chen Mu was in a happy mood.

Chen Mu's army is not equipped with armor weapons of the Shence Army, but the bottom of the warehouse of the Xuanjia Army, and some of them have rusted. Adjutant General Zhang (lame) ordered the soldiers to remove the rust and ensure that the helmets were bright and bright, otherwise the military sticks were waiting.

The lame man was very strict in governing the army, and he had to beat people every three or five days, claiming that he had completed his training during the march, and when he arrived in Hexi, this was a force that could fight. Soon the force was subdued by the lame. The soldiers were afraid of him and secretly nicknamed him "The Cripple King".

Chen Mu was very satisfied with this.

Leaving Luoyang, Chen Mu left no regrets.

The only thing that made him a little unhappy was not being able to watch this year's Oiran Contest.

However, I heard that due to the continuous wars this year, the Empress Dowager Chen of the Muyi world asked to cancel these entertainment items and change them to the Plain Clothes Festival to commemorate the sacrifices of the soldiers at the border pass.

Chen Mu was deeply comforted by this decision.

Only those who have experienced war know how cruel it really is.

I didn't see the scene of the river of blood, but the scene of the corpses on the top of the city broke into the dream many times.

Dreaming of such a scene is not a horror awakening, but endless remembrance, which can't help but make people sigh.

To make a long story short, when passing through Chang'an, Tang Zhen allocated a group of re-recruited veterans to Chen Mu, and these veterans were appointed by Chen Mu as centurions, and the number of this miscellaneous army, Tang Zhen said casually - the first brigade of temporary recruits of the third division, referred to as the "temporary first brigade".

There is the word "temporary", which is not a serious number, and it is impossible to say when it will be removed.

Chen Mu thought to himself that he should behave well and find an opportunity to remove the word "temporary" and let this army completely belong to himself.

There are "five officials" in the troops of the Liang Dynasty, which are the chief general, the supervising army, the grain supervisor, the staff general, and the deputy general. These five men are the heads of the troops. But in Chen Mu's troops, there are only the main general and deputy general, and nothing else.

Under normal circumstances, the troops with the prefix "temporary" are all of this virtue, and the structure is incomplete.

However, this did not delay Chen Mu from appointing officers, and "Captain Chen" appointed Zhang Youtian as the deputy general of the brigade and the commander of the first regiment; Zhang Han was the captain of the general guard and the commander of the second regiment; The commander of the 3rd Regiment is a veteran who is said to have served as a centurion in the 7th Xuanjia Division ten years ago, named Yuan Hong.

Yuan Hong, who has five combat power, is two years younger than the lame, fifty this year, and always shouts that he seems to have seen the cripple somewhere, and was later scolded by the lame, and he never mentioned it again.

The reason why the veteran Yuan Hong only became a centurion in the Xuanjia Army was completely because "there was no one above", and he was suppressed by others when he had empty skills, and people with three or four grades of combat strength rode on his head, so he left the army in a negative mood.

Now that the country is in trouble, the veteran gave up his farming life, enlisted in the army again with a knife, and was suddenly promoted to captain by Chen Mu, and the old soldier was moved to tears. Claiming, willing to die for his confidant.

Chen Mu generally didn't go to his heart with these words, and said in his heart: I'll see you in the future.

More than one day, the troops came to the south of Wuwei City, eighty miles.

At this time, the Hexi battlefield had already begun.

The eldest son Tang Qian was seriously ill and could not lead the troops, he did not leave Chang'an, and the second son Tang Qian refused to leave.

At this time, the person who commanded the battle on the front line was the veteran general Dian Gong.

Kong, Dian, Lin, Zhang, Li, Wang, Zhen, and Shi are the eight generals of the Tang clan, and over the years, they have cultivated countless talents for the Tang clan. China

The old general Dian Gong, with rich combat experience, did not fight a decisive battle with the enemy army whose morale was high, but fought guerrilla warfare with the enemy army.

If you come, I'll run and go around Wuwei City. You're tired, just rest for a while, I'll go and make trouble. In the middle of the night, they ran to the front of the enemy village and beat gongs and drums to set fire to the artillery, and the enemy troops were also miserable. The enemy general Wuyanda was so angry that he screamed violently, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Wuyanda went crazy and wanted to storm Wuwei City, Dian Gong led his troops to kill from behind, and defeated Wuyanda many times, and then Wuyanda was also useless and asked the Sogdian king to replace him. He told the Sogdian king that the Han people were cunning and could not fight this battle.

The Sogdian king did not respond, and soon after, the Hun Dadan Yu Alandor came to Wuwei in person, surrounded but did not fight. The two sides are at a stalemate.

Since the two sons of "Qian" and "Kun" did not come to the front line, Tang Zhen, the eighteenth son, became the representative of the Tang clan in the Hexi War. At the same time, he was responsible for contacting Zhang Yunlong, the general of Xuanjia Yunlu, and coordinated operations.

There are still eighty miles away from Wuwei, back to Pipa Mountain to set up camp, there are two guards nearby, garrison a little and tun grain, echo with Dazhai from afar, Dian Gong led 80,000 people to the son Tang Zhen closer, and at this time there are 40,000 Shence soldiers guarding Wuwei City, and the general defending the city is Qi Dongyang, the god of war of the second division.

"Arandor is playing this hand again, he wants to use Wuwei as bait to force us to support, so as to fight us on the plains. They had a lot of cavalry, and our infantry suffered. Tang Zhen held a short battle in his hand, pointed to the sand table and said.

Zhang Yunlong said: "The hedgehog formation of the Xuanjia Army broke the Huren cavalry, I sent the first division to take the initiative to attack, deceit, and attract the enemy into Hulukou, my fifth division and ninth division were ambushed in Hulukou, and when the battle was chaotic, the Shence army copied all sides and eliminated Alando in a battle. ”

Tang Zhen shook his head: "Arandor won't be fooled. If you fight like this, he will only cripple your first division, and then he will withdraw his troops and will not enter the gourd mouth. ”

"What then?"

Tang Zhen threw away his cane: "The food in Wuwei City is enough for 40,000 people to eat for half a year. In that case, let them surround it. Let's see who can survive in the end. If Alandor can't bear it, let him come and fight my big village, and I have 3,000 three-arrow heavy crossbows and 100,000 bows, waiting to serve him. ”

"But if you fight like this, what will happen to Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang?" The veteran Diangong said worriedly.

Tang Zhen said: "Take a detour to send food." ”

——

Chen Mu received the first wartime military order after becoming a school officer, and transported half a year's worth of grain to Jiuquan.

According to the scouts who came from Jiuquan, there were 3,000 men and horses besieging Jiuquan at this time, and in the hands of Kong Xiaoxian, the lieutenant general of the third division of Shence, there was still only one escort regiment, with a total of more than 900 people.

The damned 15th Division lieutenant general Tang Xiong, due to negative anger, never sent troops to take over Jiuquan, and as a result, the unlucky egg Kong Xiaoxian was besieged in Jiuquan City again.

When Chen Mu received the military order, he couldn't cry or laugh at first, and then he began to get nervous again.

Since ancient times, the grain road has been a battleground for soldiers, with large troops facing each other and small troops fighting fiercely on various grain routes.

This journey by yourself is by no means easy.

Chen Mu frowned and pondered, and the lame man walked over with a smile: "Alas, Chen Mu, I'm thinking, if Kong Xiao dies first, who will the Tang Clan's gate valve let be the third division general?" ”

"I guess it must not be me."

"Why?"

"If he can be promoted in this way, he will let the lord defend the city in the future, otherwise no one of his subordinates will save him, and they will all wait for him to die, so that he can be promoted."

"Hehe, when we were a general, we once gave such an order that if the general died, all the people around him would be buried. Since then, generals in my army have often been the last to die. Of course, don't raise a bar with me, there are always deserters, there are people who pretend to be dead, and there are also cases of generals being killed by cold arrows. I'm talking about the whole. ”

"You old boy is very good at pretending to be dead, and you are also very good at being a deserter, you are my predecessor in these two points, I want to learn from you."

"Hey, why don't you ask what happens if the general is killed by a cold arrow? If you want to kill and bury all the people around him, don't you feel too wronged? ”

"You must have shot the arrow."

"Damn, boy, I'm not human in your mind, am I?"
