Chapter 199: What to Fight For

Li Guangbi once asked Xu Yi whether he should send troops when Xi and Khitan did not disturb the border?

"Any such behavior of belonging to rebellion, rebellion against belonging, unstability and rebellion, in the eyes of this commander, is a rebel! If you want to belong, you must belong thoroughly, disarm and return to the field, and hand over peace to me Dasheng. ”

"Otherwise, organize some decent troops, set up a clear battle, and fight with my Shence army, and never die!"

"This time, the imperial court sent my Shence army to the north, not to live here, but to fight. If the Xibu Khitan has not disturbed the border for many years, is it possible that my Shence Army will directly change its name and change it to the Youzhou Army? ”

"No matter what the other party is, Ben Shuai is going to fight, and he must be convinced!"

In fact, when the Shence army left Beijing, it was indeed an expedition, not a garrison. And since the Shence army arrived in the Youzhou area, the imperial court has no edict to fight, and it seems that the Shence army is treated like the envoys of various places.

Xu Yi was worried, and from then on he would need to be stationed in Youzhou.

Chang'an's industrial income, according to Cui Ying and Xu Qing's letters, has never been less than a cent. It's just that in the military city of the Xiliu Battalion, the Ministry of Imperial Engineering has sent a lot of officials······ This is exactly what Xu Yi is worried about.

The saint is not stupid, on the contrary, he is the number one Mingjun, at least now.

When Xu Yi presented firearms, he thought that the promotion of firearms would allow the imperial court to control the local army. When Xu Yi took the Shence Army to the expedition, there was also an opportunity to intervene in the military city of Xiliuying.

What Xu Yi was worried about was not the interference of the imperial court, but the systems he formulated in the Xiliu Camp would be implemented beyond recognition by the bastard officials of the imperial court······ Two years is not enough time for those craftsmen to develop habits; In two years, it is even more impossible for those craftsmen to have the quality of hard resistance to the officials of the Ministry of Industry.

Xu Yi has selfish intentions and public intentions, although he has always been entangled between public and private, he has never thought of treating the military city of Xiliuying as private property. It can be used as a force, but it is impossible to achieve private property.

In this way, Xu Yi was very worried that when there was no complete standardization and the operation of an absolute system, the imperial court would take over like this, which would lead to immeasurable consequences.

Therefore, Xu Yi needs to fight a big battle in Youzhou as soon as possible, so that the saint and the imperial court will not dare to touch everything in the military city of Xiliuying at will!

So, the army went out······

It should be that the news of the army's expedition spread all over the north, and Xu Yi didn't think to hide it.

When the army left Yanshan in the north, passed Jizhou, and was about to reach the Luanhe area, the scouts finally discovered the enemy's movements.

"Dashuai, there are nearly 10,000 Xi and Khitan elite horsemen in the Taiping Mountain area, and there are countless foot soldiers. This place is close to the Pinglu region, do you contact General An to assist in the battle? ”

Xue Song looked at the scout's report and asked Xu Yi against the map.

In the end, he hasn't gotten used to the combat power of the Shence Army, and it's just ten thousand horses!

"What do you think of Brother Guangbi?"

"This bit of people and horses, the last general thinks that it is still unnecessary, it is not enough for the Divine Strategy Army to swallow alive, not to mention that we also brought five thousand Youzhou elite horsemen this time."

"Since it's a big victory for the imperial court, it's not much fun to win more or less."

Li Guangbi was very relaxed, not as cautious as Xue Song.

The firearms of the Shence Army are the most suitable for mass destruction, and the more soldiers and horses on the opponent, the more fully the power of firearms can be fully reflected. For the Shence Army, it is because they are afraid that the number of enemies is small.

"Where is the battlefield?"

Xue Song asked again.

"You two can discuss it, whatever you want."

After Xu Yi finished speaking, he walked around except for the handsome tent.

Xue Song looked at Xu Yi's back as he went out, and then turned his head to look at Li Guangbi. Could it be that there was a hidden secret in the original two thousand injuries and illnesses? Xu Yi now gives him the feeling that he is a gentleman, who knows nothing about the battlefield.

The other party is likely to be 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses, 10,000 cavalry, tens of thousands of foot soldiers, or maybe the elite who used the standard weapons of the Dasheng Dynasty.

The Great War! Even if the war with the Xibu Khitan has not been interrupted over the years, there are still very few wars with tens of thousands of people like this. When Zhao Hanzhang and his father were in charge of Youzhou, such a war was quite cautious, how could it be like Xu Yi······

"Brother Xue, this little bit of people really doesn't need to worry about the big handsome!"

"How do you fight that?"

"That's it."

"General Li, this is the canyon······ We are ambushing in advance, how can we lure the other party into the trap? ”

"No, we enter the canyon, enter brightly and boldly, and do not shy away from anyone."

Xue Song felt that Li Guangbi was crazy, or that he didn't understand any military common sense. Stared at Li Guangbi······ At this moment, Xue Song regretted following Xu Yi a little.

What a level of this! Still fighting, looking for death is almost the same.

"General Xue, arrange the cavalry of the Shence Army and the Youzhou Army on the periphery, and the chariot can enter the canyon with the tiger squat cannon······ General Xue, I, Li Guangbi, was born in the Li family in Liucheng and a family of generals, don't you know the danger of the army being encircled? ”

"The Divine Army is different, and unlike all the armies. Even if it is encircled, it will only be the other party who will be defeated in the end. Let's take a look······"

In the case of equal troops, there is really no need to consider tactics in the battle of the Shence Army, if it exceeds five times the strength, maybe the commander will take it seriously.

In the past two years, the marshal has not only developed firearms in the military city of the Xiliu Battalion. That kind of sand table and war deduction is already the regular study of the generals of the entire Shence Army.

At the beginning, Li Guangbi was also shameless, but since he played with Dashuai a few times, he still deduced the battle examples of the early Dasheng Dynasty, and finally had to admit the effectiveness of the sand table deduction, and he also had to admit that Dashuai's strategy was superb.

It's him Li Guangbi, who has also improved a lot over the years.

This little thing, to be honest, the captain of the Shence Army knows how to fight.

From the very beginning of the preparation for the establishment of the Shence Army, Xu Yi was implementing the staff polemic system, from Xu Yi and Li Guangbi to the captains who fought in specific operations, they all participated in the discussion of the entire tactics, and finally formed a combat plan that must be implemented.

Like this one······ It really doesn't seem to be worth mentioning.

Li Guangbi accompanied Xue Song into the canyon, and no one in the Shence Army felt that it was inappropriate, and he didn't worry about the safety of the deputy general at all, so he didn't act as a deputy general.

What is there to worry about? The shape of the chariot was similar to that of the four-wheeled carriage popular in the eastern capital of Chang'an, but it was tested in the military city, and there were almost no weapons that could chisel through the carriage of the chariot except for the bed crossbow.

The Shence army, which was less than 2,000, entered the canyon and felt like the vanguard force, but there was no follow-up support team, it seemed to be a reckless division, waiting to be eaten by the Xibu Khitan.

Xue Song was a little nervous, he was like Li Guangbi, wearing regular clothes, and he didn't even carry a weapon, if he was really surrounded, he didn't know if the soldiers could escape, he and Li Guangbi, even if they were extremely brave, they would only die.

"Worried?"

Li Guangbi asked, with a smile. Xue Song didn't know how to answer, and smiled bitterly.

"Look at ······"

Li Guangbi casually took out a waist knife from the inner wall of the chariot, and then wheeled it up, absolutely using real force, slashing directly at the inner wall of the chariot······

Just a "bang", Li Guangbi handed the waist knife to Xue Song: "This ······"

"There is no doubt that the inner wall of the chariot is comparable to armor, it is that kind of plate armor, two layers, it is the plate armor after Xu Shuai improved the steelmaking method."

"There are not only firearms workshops in the military city, but also steelmaking workshops. How to say it, the Shence Army is Xu Shuai's ······ with the proceeds of many of his own industries."

Xu Shuai said the most often verbally: The war is fought with equipment, logistics, advanced weapons, the courage of soldiers, the wealth of the dynasty, and the money and grain······
