Volume 3: For Whom Desperate 30. Glory to Life
After pacifying these scouts, Chen He said to Ren Hang: "Ren Hang, you must not treat these meritorious soldiers badly!" In addition, did you find out why Li Qingxue withdrew his troops? ”
"Back to the Lord, there was news coming back just now, saying that Li Qingxue's army has been encamped again on Dinglong Mountain at this moment! Dinglong Mountain, the terrain is quite high, and there is only one mountain road in and out, quite rugged, very much the momentum of a man who is not open, if our army attacks, I am afraid that the loss is not small! Ren Hang replied, after learning that the scout responsible for reconnoitring Li Qingxue's army was entangled, Ren Hang re-dispatched a scout team, falling Li Qingxue's army from afar, basically half an hour to send back a message, and the latest news is that Li Qingxue has set up camp again, and has built simple fortifications.
"What do you mean, according to the mountain? He's here to attack Ao Long City, so he's become a defender! Or does he see me soldier and plan to drag on time and fight with me? Chen He felt funny, the attacker became the defender, and he was still defending the mountain.
The only explanation for this situation is that Li Qingxue intends to consume him, after all, Chen He's 200,000 troops consume a lot of war spirit every day, so Li Qingxue is planning to fight with himself, if this is really the case, Chen He looks down on Li Qingxue a little, and Li Qingxue is afraid that he will be disappointed in the end, even if they consume themselves to death, Chen He's side will not hurt his vitality.
"Lord, Li Qingxue doesn't stand to reason like such a person, and when he talked to the military advisor before, his subordinates felt that he was a downright person, and it was impossible to fight a war of attrition, so I am afraid that there is another deception here, and the lord needs to be more guarded!" Huo Miao said next to him, Meng He also nodded when he heard this, and suddenly changed to a place to camp, which itself exuded a strange feeling, and also put on a defensive posture, if there is no cat, who will believe it!
"Ren Hang, your scouts will keep an eye on them around the clock, send me out all your scout camps, I not only want information, but also ask you to block all their scouts, and not allow half of them to come down the mountain! If they're going to keep scouting, let them try! ”
Chen He also knows that this matter is not simple, but he has no better way to deal with it, the only thing he can do is to monitor the other party all the time, as for the scouts, Chen He has always attached great importance to them, and now the scout team under Ren Hang's command has reached 5,000 people, and there are more than 3,000 people who have gone out of the division.
"Rest assured, the subordinates have strictly ordered the subordinates to report every half an hour, and if the enemy has any abnormal movements, it will be reported immediately, and it will definitely not delay the Lord's major affairs!" Ren Hang spoke at the moment, it was called a full confidence, this confidence came from the dozens of scouts before, they used their scars to tell everyone what a scout is.
"Okay, then next, let's study how to capture this Dinglong Mountain, since Li Qingxue has set up a position, we can't let him wait in vain! Attacking mountains is what they do best! Chen He nodded, and then said to the generals present. Chen He's fortune relied on attacking various bandits, so he was full of experience in attacking mountains.
When they were discussing what method to use to capture Dinglong Mountain with the least loss, Huo Miao, Lin Tiehu and other generals also returned, and they tossed all night yesterday, so they rested for a while near the morning, and hurried back!
As soon as he entered Chen He's big tent, Huo Miao hurriedly asked for credit for Lin Tiehu, with Huo Miao's description, coupled with the additions of Mo Ke and Hu Shouyi from the side, Chen He said with a smile: "Okay, Lin Tiehu, the general has been optimistic about you for a long time, this time you have dealt with it properly, you can be called a general, the left wing battalion is in your hands, and it will definitely be famous in the world!" As a reward for your response this time and avoiding our casualties, you will be allowed to make your own flag on the left flank as a sign of glory! ”
As Chen He's words fell, all the generals present widened their eyes, because this is the first self-made military flag, without Chen He's explanation, they can all understand that once they make their own military flag, it is equivalent to having their own military soul, and the soldiers will be more energetic, and when fighting, they will be more desperate, because this is their glory and cannot be tarnished.
To say that among the many generals present, the greatest credit is definitely not Lin Tiehu, but Chen He promised Lin Tiehu the glory of the self-made military flag, which contains a lot of meaning, especially Mo Ke, his eyes lit up, he also wanted a copy of this glory, and immediately asked: "Lord, what should the subordinates do to get the glory of the self-made military flag?" "A reckless man is a reckless man after all, and all the generals present want to know, but in the end, only one Mok asked.
Of course, among the generals, I am afraid that only Mo Ke has the courage to ask, after all, Mo Ke has followed Chen He for the longest time, and is recognized as a reckless man, you don't see that he made mistakes twice before, although he was punished, but in the end, no one can replace him as the head of the forward battalion, which is not only Chen He's nostalgia, but also because Mo Ke is indeed meritorious.
"Hehe, Ben will know what you are thinking, Lin Tiehu's credit is indeed not the highest, but this time because of him, let us avoid a major loss, or avoid a defeat of ours, this is the credit that Ben will attach the most importance to, victory is nothing, the general trend is so difficult to lose, the difference is that a big victory or a small victory, but failure is that they must have a problem, and the credit for solving the problem is the greatest!
In other words, victory is due, big victory has a big victory, small victory has a small victory, but victory is a must for the enemy we are currently dealing with, so the generals have no opinion, right? Speaking of this, Chen He deliberately paused and looked around at the generals.
And the generals nodded in unison, in terms of their military strength, if they lose, it would be called stupid, so they agreed with Chen He's words, victory should be.
"Therefore, what we are most concerned about now is not to make mistakes, not to give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of, to completely crush them! Before, Chu Xia and Huo Miao and I were negligent of the enemy's stealing of the camp, which was our mistake, but General Lin not only discovered the enemy's stealing of the camp, but also was able to quickly make the best countermeasures, which is a great achievement, so there are still people who question the glory of the self-made military flag given to the left wing battalion? Chen He finally pointed out his original intention of rewarding Lin Tiehu.
Although Lin Tiehu didn't find anything out of caution, he just accidentally bumped into the stealing camp, but he was able to decisively divide his troops into three ways and save the friendly army's moves, which is the quality of a general, is the main reason why he was rewarded, and it is also what Chen He values the most.
After listening to Chen He's explanation, everyone knew in their hearts that for the battle that must be won, the battle merits are all false, and what the Lord values more is the ability of a military general, and this time Lin Tiehu made an example for them.
At the same time, the generals also secretly pondered that what the Lord needed was a real general, a general who could lead troops to fight and judge the situation, so there would be a way to step on the sky and send it to them before, so that they could learn, and the purpose was also to improve their ability to lead troops!
Lin Tiehu also said with some excitement: "My subordinates will not let the Lord down!" On behalf of all the soldiers of the Left Wing Battalion, my subordinates thanked the Lord for the glory and regarded this glory as life! ”
"General Lin's words are serious, the glory is given by the general, it represents your previous achievements, and the glory is also earned by you, because it is what you deserve! However, life is given by your parents, it belongs to you, and it will give you glory, so that you can use glory to illuminate your own life, not use your life to light up glory, so putting the cart before the horse, it will go against the original intention of the general, remember, under the command of the general, everything is important to the lives of soldiers! ”
Chen He looked at Lin Tiehu, and said with a solemn exhortation in his voice: "Lin Tiehu, if you don't take the lives of your soldiers as your life, just for this glory, then you will take back this glory at any time!" Remember? ”
"Yes, my subordinates remember, after I go back, I will definitely inform the officers and soldiers of the whole army that glory can be fought for, there is only one life, and only by living can you enjoy glory!" Lin Tiehu's brain is also very flexible, and he immediately understood what Chen He said, this glory is not a shackle for them, but a real glory, and a capital for them to show off.
"Hmmm! And you are the same, if you make enough credit to earn glory in the future, Ben will not be stingy, but also to Ben will remember that glory is a reward for you, not a shackle for you, if anyone dares to ignite the blood of the soldiers with glory, it is a great victory, it is a meritorious achievement, and Ben will punish the same crime and take back the glory! Chen He looked at the other generals again, because he knew very well that once glory was regarded as life, it was a kind of shackle, which could certainly improve the morale of his soldiers in war, but it was also easy for them to be dragged down by glory and lose their soldiers.
Meng He listened to Chen He's words, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the lord's words can definitely make the soldiers more obedient, but the soldiers will definitely not put glory on their lips, but deeply imprinted in their hearts, imprinted on their bodies, and will do everything for glory.
"Subordinates remember!" The generals got up one after another, bowed to Chen He and said.
As generals, they know very well that sometimes, there are obviously better choices, but it is precisely because of the glory of a strange name that they can't choose the best choice, and the final consequence will be the loss of the army and the destruction of the whole army!
Chen He nodded, and then said to Huo Miao: "It just so happens that the four of you are back, let's discuss it together, Huo Miao, you can preside over this meeting, I will give you full authority for this battle!" ”
"Yes, Lord, my subordinates will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!" Huo Miao immediately bowed down and said, he was extremely moved by Chen He's trust and reuse.
