Chapter 488: Swinging the army to the north

Ding Juncheng left with joy, and after he went back, he naturally went to collect grain and grass.

Cao Liang fell into deep thought, although he promised Ding Juncheng to be very happy, but when Cao Liang really thought about this problem, there were many difficulties.

Although there are not many days left before Cao Liang's original scheduled dispatch date, it is not an easy task even if it is a day or two in advance.

The army went out to fight, there were a lot of things to do, and they were all arranged step by step according to the previous date of the army, if Cao Liang suddenly changed the date of the expedition now, the inconvenience caused would be in all aspects.

But Pingyang is in danger, Cao Liang can't sit idly by, quelling the rebellion of the Xiongnu was originally Cao Liang's responsibility, whether he is the Xiongnu in the state or the Xiongnu in Hedong, let Cao Liang bump into it, it must be to destroy him first.

After Ding Juncheng left, Cao Liang first discussed with Huan Fan, Pei Xiu, and Fu Xuan.

When Huan Fan heard this, he smiled coldly and said: "General Cao, are you the army has drilled well or the battle formation has been perfected, are you in such a hurry to send troops?" ”

In fact, Huan Fan was very dissatisfied with Cao Liang's original plan to send troops in one month, not to mention the low combat effectiveness of the fourth battalion of the Northern Army, even a large number of newly recruited soldiers, so there must be a process of integration and familiarization.

The training of the army is a systematic project, and Huan Fan does not think that in just one month, he can build an army with strong combat strength, and it will take at least half a year to achieve this goal.

A month is still shallow, and now Cao Liang actually proposed to send troops in advance, which inevitably made Huan Fan sneer, thinking that Cao Liang was eager for quick success, and I am afraid that he was in a hurry to send heads to the Huns.

Fu Xuan also said: "Our army is still in the training stage, and it seems that it is unprofitable to send troops in a hurry. "Fu Xuan is in charge of the army's account books, and he knows the current situation of the army best.

Pei Xiu also said: "If you send troops in a hurry, I'm afraid that not only will you not be able to save Captain Lin, but you will be defeated by the Huns." And this first battle is very important, if it cannot be won, it will inevitably affect the morale of the military who will enter the state later. ”

Pei Xiu attaches great importance to the first battle, believing that the first battle is very important, if it fails, it will severely hit the morale of the Pingbei army, and if it can win, it will make the whole army excited and greatly improve the morale of the army.

And now, if Cao Liang sends troops in a hurry, with such a good army that has not yet been run-in, Pei Xiu and none of them are optimistic, and they are all more pessimistic.

Of course, Cao Liang is also aware of the difficulties he is facing now, but no matter how great the difficulties are, can there be an emergency in Pingyang, which was besieged by the Huns, and the reason why he proposed to send troops in advance was the result of weighing the pros and cons.

"This is the only way to go to Merge Zhou, Pingyang is the only way, the current momentum of the Huns is very fierce, the rebellion has spread to Hedong County, as for the Merge State, I am afraid the situation is even more unbearable, as a soldier, how can I watch the fire from the other side and stay out of the matter? Therefore, I have made up my mind to send troops in advance, and I have given the order to go down, and all battalions must complete all preparations before the expedition by this evening, and tomorrow, at the end of the day! ”

Although Cao Liang's plan to send troops in advance was unanimously opposed by the strategists, Cao Liang was still unmoved, insisted on his own opinion, and ordered all battalions to pack up and prepare and plan to go on the expedition tomorrow.

The order was quickly sent to the battalions, and the fifth lieutenant, who was in charge of the drill, had to suspend the ongoing drill and move on to the preparations before the expedition.

Since Cao Liang's request was to complete all the preparations before the expedition before the evening, and the time of the expedition was set for midnight tomorrow morning, it was extremely hasty in terms of time.

However, the military order was like a mountain and could not be disobeyed, and of course the fifth lieutenant was not a vegetarian, they acted vigorously and resolutely, made reasonable arrangements, and completed all the preparations before the expedition before dark.

Cao Liang was quite satisfied with the performance of the fifth lieutenant, knowing that in such a short period of time, it was indeed not easy to complete a series of preparations before the expedition.

But famous generals are famous generals, although they are still unknown, but their military talents have been undoubtedly revealed, Cao Liang believes that after this war, they will be able to grow up quickly.
