Chapter 9 Advice
On the school field, Gao Yang personally led the soldiers to run together, and 3,000 people ran around the school field in a neat circle as a team, and kept shouting slogans: "Either attack, or die, blood will not be shed, and death will not be truce!" ”
Then there was the neat military posture training, Gao Yang adopted the endurance training of the People's Liberation Army of later generations, including standing still, standing upright, walking in unison, and changing the method to torture the soldiers and exercise their endurance limits.
This set of different training methods makes the soldiers miserable, but they dare not say that they are tired, because for them this will be a knockout game, and those who persist and excel will enter the Baibao Xuanjia Army and become the general's guard, enjoying high welfare benefits, not only the military salary is three times higher than before, but also the fish and meat every day, and the family does not need to pay taxes, similar to the Wei Wushu trained by Wu Qi during the Warring States Period.
Although the number of Baibao Xuanjia is limited, only 100 people, more than 20 armored cavalry, and the rest are light cavalry, the high military salary treatment still makes the soldiers train hard, and sure enough, people die for money, birds die for food, even if they don't enter the Baibao Xuanjia Army when they take a step back, they can enter the professional soldiers, and the military salary and welfare are better than the state soldiers.
Looking at the soldiers training in full swing, some of them couldn't hold on physically or gritted their teeth and persisted, but Gao Yang was still not satisfied, especially in cavalry training, although these two thousand people were born in Xianbei, but after all, they were Xianbei people living in various states, and their combat effectiveness was still far inferior to that of the Chinese army and the Zhenshu army, and the training intensity in the past was not so great.
Gao Yang pointed to the cavalry who were training horse warfare, and said to Murong Shisu: "Shisu, the cavalry combat experience and combat skills of our legion, and even the proficiency of the cavalry, are still not as good as the Chinese army and the Zhenshu army. ”
Murong Shisu thought for a while, as if he had made up his mind and said: "General, the advantage of the last general lies in strength, as for training, it is not the strength of the last general, but I know a person, and he will be able to work hard immediately, if he comes to train the cavalry, the combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved, but this person is not easy to use." ”
"Oh? And such characters, who can't use them? Gao Yang asked suspiciously.
Murong Shisu was silent for a while, but still said: "He Ba Shiwen! Then he kept his mouth shut.
Hobaltwen? Why is this name so familiar, it seems that I have heard it somewhere?
After thinking for a while, Gao Yang suddenly remembered, He Batshiwen, the eldest son of He Batyun, grew up in the military camp with his father since he was a child, and belonged to the authentic Xianbei people, and the most famous of the He Batting family was his uncle He Batyue, the first leader of the Western Wei Dynasty. Because He Batyue and He Batsheng are loyal to Yuwentai and oppose the Eastern Wei Dynasty, He Batshiwen's father He Batyun was excluded everywhere in the Eastern Wei camp, although Gao Huan did not account for it on the surface, but he did not dare to reuse He Batyun, even his son, who is currently only a middle-level officer, although He Batshiwen has a hereditary title, but also holds the military position of a building owner.
Speaking of which, Gao Yang and He Ba Shiwen also met, and the three brothers studied with the children and grandchildren of the Gao family at that time, but they returned to Dingzhou to settle in less than a year. Gao Yang remembered that the three brothers would be ostracized everywhere in the Gao family, especially his eldest brother Gao Cheng looked down on them and often took the lead in bullying the three brothers. And his predecessor was still called a fool at that time, but he had the same disease as these three brothers, but the relationship was not bad.
It's just that everyone grew up later, and the sensitive identity of the Heba family, so the predecessor deliberately stayed away from them, and even if they met in a hurry, they just nodded and said hello, and there was not much intersection.
Murong Shisu looked at Gao Yang silently, thinking that Gao Yang was also concerned about He Ba Shiwen's life experience, and couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "General, the last general understands your difficulties, let's think of other ways." ”
Gao Yang laughed when he heard this: "Shisu don't misunderstand, I just remembered what happened when I was a child, speaking of which, I and the three brothers of the Heba family were still young classmates and friends. ”
Murong Shisu nodded and sighed: "Yes, Brother Shiwen's talent is much better than mine, and if the general transfers him, it will be tantamount to adding wings to a tiger." ”
After Gao Yang heard this, he said "um" and replied: "Don't worry, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and Brother Shiwen will definitely be transferred when there is a chance." ”
In this way, after nearly ten days of training, the mental momentum of the entire legion soldiers has changed, and all of them persevered, and finally Gao Yang fought against the whole army through the ring, and finally selected the victorious 100 as the guards pro-army.
Gao Yang was training the army in full swing, but he didn't know that his father had been secretly observing him for the past ten days, especially very curious about his training methods, from the beginning of the puzzle to seeing that the momentum and combat effectiveness of the entire army in a short period of time have been greatly improved, especially in the team, it is very successful in running-in, if you give more time, he will definitely be a strong army.
It's just that Gao Huan has been very annoyed recently, no matter what means he used, he couldn't defeat Wei Xiaokuan, building the earth mountain condescendingly, the sharp chariot, digging tunnels, shooting "vultures", cutting off Fenshui, persuading Wei Xiaokuan's nephew to surrender, etc., exhausted tactics, to no avail, the Eastern Wei army suffered heavy losses, the most important thing is that winter is approaching in the blink of an eye, according to the spy report, the Western Wei Yuwentai is mobilizing the army, preparing to support the back road to surround the Eastern Wei army.
Under the urgency of the situation, Gao Huan had no choice but to convene a meeting of generals to make suggestions, and Gao Yang, as Gao Huan's son, also had the opportunity to attend and participate in this meeting.
Some said that the encirclement point was reinforced, and the army was drawn from the country to fight to the death with the arrival of the Western Wei army, this statement was quickly vetoed by Gao Huan, after all, Yuwentai is a wise general, and his subordinates are full of talents, and he will not fight to the death with the Eastern Wei under the premise of strength not allowed, on the contrary, as long as he continues to harass and even destroy the military food escort, then the Eastern Wei Dynasty will not be able to prevent unless the army is mobilized to defend, otherwise it will be impossible to prevent, and the final siege army will be dragged down and starved to death.
Some generals proposed to bypass Yubi, enter the Western Wei from Fenbei, attack all the way from Xiazhou-Lingzhou, and force the Western Wei to conduct a decisive battle in the north. But this approach was still vetoed, the battle line was too long, although this could avoid Yubi, but as soon as the supply line was long, more troops would be needed, and the Western Wei Dynasty would join forces with Yubi to send troops, and the risk of being cut off from the back road would be greatly increased.
Just when the generals were talking, Gao Yang, who had not spoken, suddenly stood up and respectfully saluted Gao Huan: "Father, my son has a plan to fight." ”
Gao Huan saw that it was his second son Gao Yang, and said with a little surprise: "Hu Niyu, do you have any good ideas to hear?" ”
"Send some elites to bypass Yubi to attack Fennan, and then you can capture Fennan and isolate Yubi, so that you can also break Yuwentai's enemy's move to encircle our army and seize the initiative."
The generals couldn't help frowning when they heard this, Xue Guting couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Second son, this is not a good strategy, in this way, if you go deep behind the enemy, it is easy to be attacked by the enemy on both sides, once Yuwentai sends a large army over, it is easy for Yubi to eat this part of the army that is deep in Fennan." ”
As soon as Xue Guting finished speaking, all the generals couldn't help but agree, and they all said that this plan was inappropriate.
Gao Huan didn't refute, but just asked: "Hou Niyu, what if you can't attack Fennan?" ”
Gao Yang replied calmly: "Adapt to the situation, either retreat and converge with the main force, or retreat to Fenbei, and then wait for the opportunity to retreat to Jinyang, or retreat from Huaizhou to Yecheng, or the whole army will be annihilated." ”
As soon as Gao Yang's words came out, the audience discussed a lot, most of them expressed their opposition, Hu Lujin retorted: "Second son, it's not that the old minister deliberately provokes thorns, the art of war is cloudy, and now our army has surrounded Yubi for more than a month, and the cold winter has arrived, morale is at a low ebb. ”
Gao Yang looked at the generals in the barracks, most of them retorted, as if this strategy was bound to fail, and couldn't help but sarcastically say loudly: "When the narrow road meets, the brave wins, our army is at a low ebb, isn't the enemy army?" If the cold winter weather has an effect, won't the enemy army have it? My main army is all Xianbei men, can't it compare to the Han people in the western part of the country? Could it be that all these years have smoothed out your courage and will? ”
There were probably more than 10,000 Xianbei people who followed He Bayue into Guanxi, plus nearly 10,000 Xianbei people who later followed Emperor Xiaowu into Guanxi, and in general, there were less than 30,000 Xianbei people in Guanxi. This also made the Eastern Wei regime look down on the Western Wei and consider them to be a Han regime.
Gao Huan, who was sitting on the main seat, couldn't help but be proud after hearing this, yes, the Xianbei man was born in a bitter cold land, and he won more and lost more in the Quartet, how could he lose his courage in a momentary predicament now? But he still deliberately blamed Gao Yang: "Hou Niyu, don't be presumptuous, everyone here is almost your uncle and uncle, and the battlefield experience is even more than yours." ”
After hearing this, Gao Yang couldn't help but apologize: "Uncles, I was disrespectful just now, and I hope that your uncle Haihan is rude, but I still say the same thing: meet the brave on the narrow road, and there is no endless road." I would like to be a part of the attack on Fennan. ”
After hearing this, Xue Guting stood up arrogantly and saluted Gao Huan: "King Xiang, I, Xue Guting, am also willing to contribute to this attack on Fennan. ”
Hu Lujin, Hu Luguang father and son, and Duan Shao also stood up and expressed their support for sending troops to Fennan, they were all infected by Gao Yang's words just now, and they did pull out to fight, would Xianbei men still be afraid of this group of Kansai Han tycoons?
Gao Huan saw that everyone was silently supporting, and couldn't help but muttered for a while, then stood up, looked at the people under the slashing table, and said: "Okay, just as Hou Niyu said, send troops to defeat Fennan, and at the same time the army besieging Yubi continues to attack, I don't believe that my Great Wei Iron Cavalry will not be able to defeat this group of Guanxi thieves?" ”
