Chapter 61: Sending Troops
Then Fan Li made an excuse and said that there were a lot of bandits in Huzhou, so you should listen to Governor Luo's call and suppress the bandits in Huzhou.
As soon as Wang Zhen heard Fan Liang say this, he also pondered in his heart, and also understood, he didn't take me with him to fight, and then asked me to listen to Luo Yu's call, don't you just want me to go? Okay, since you want me to go, then I'll just go generously, the world is in chaos, where can I not get ahead, why bother to suffer this nest under your hands!
So as soon as he raised his head and opened his mouth, he said: Teacher, you will let me take my soldiers from Shaxian County back to Shaxian County to suppress bandits.
Fan Li originally thought that Wang Zhen was unwilling to go by himself, and he had to follow him to fight, how could I convince him! But I didn't expect Wang Zhen to agree so happily, very surprised, really surprised, since the matter has come to this, or have to push the boat down the river, Fan Li said: The road ahead is very difficult, I hope you can do it yourself, I hope we can raise our eyebrows one day, and our descendants will not have to suffer from this.
After that, Fan Liang also asked, look at what you still lack, I will try my best to make up for you, Wang Zhen said I don't lack anything! Speaking of which, Wang Zhen's departure is already a foregone conclusion, no matter what happens, cracks have appeared in the hearts of the two, whether the cracks will get bigger and bigger in the future, that is a matter for the future.
From this incident, we can see Fan Li's thoughts and ideas, first, to fight steadily, and second, it is not good to betray me!
So in the face of the upcoming eastward march, Fan Li has already sorted out the number of roads, the people have been arranged, the team and strategy have been formulated, and he has won so many battles before, so can he also win this time?
Let's not talk about these first, let's just say that when Fan Li was about to get everything ready, he wrote an excerpt to the emperor, which wrote that I was going to send a three-way army, how to fight the south road? How to fight on the North Road? How do you play in the middle lane?
The emperor was very happy with Fan Li's strategy of marching, and directly agreed, just do it, you have the final say. At the same time, the emperor also issued an order, saying that Fan Li, you go out to fight, and the officials from all over the country along the way have to listen to your deployment, if anyone is disobedient, you write down these people for me, in case something goes wrong and delays the military aircraft, I will definitely deal with these people, and I will clean up strictly and heavily!
This looks like the emperor has given Fan Li a lot of support, but if Fan Li can do it himself, does the emperor still need to say these words? If Fan Li is talking to someone at this time, and asking others to do anything, why would the emperor say this!
That means that Fan Liang is restrained everywhere, you say that you are an official sent down from above, not to mention whether the local officials will be willing to cooperate with you, just say that Fan Liang has a temper, and he has won a lot of battles, who do you say he can serve? Who can he talk to? Ordered to adjust this and that all day long, who can really listen to him, must be the same as when he was in Huzhou, so the emperor said this, which can be regarded as support for Fan Li!
However, don't think that the emperor's support is too strong. Of course, it is impossible to have the emperor's support, but even if you have it, I also support you spiritually!
Because of what? Because the emperor didn't give Fan Liang money, he asked Fan Liang to raise his own military salary, so this made Fan Liang feel very aggrieved, which meant that in addition to leading troops to fight, he also had to do logistics work.
Take the previous big victory in Wuzhou as an example, saying that there is no money if you fight, Zhong Yuan gave feedback on the situation, Zhang Liangqing and Gao Ji, who were on the front line in Wuzhou, had no choice but to write to Fan Li and ask him to find a way! After this battle, we still won, otherwise Wuzhou is really dangerous!
Therefore, Fan Li's troubles in terms of military salaries are very big, but it is precisely at such a difficult moment that Fan Li still organizes the army, and still pulls the army out, which still makes the emperor feel a little relieved!
Therefore, on the whole, Fan Liang at this moment still has a chance of winning, with support and trust, so Fan Liang set off to fight Jiujiang at this juncture. But no matter what, the difficulties are real, even if Fan Li pressed it in his heart and didn't tell his soldiers, but the nearest staff members around him knew it.
So a small number of people know how much pressure Fan Liang has at this time, but Fan Liang firmly presses it in the bottom of his heart and does not expose it to the public. For negative emotions, even if you suppress it in your heart, it will explode sooner or later, and it is easy to collapse as an ordinary person.
Let's not talk about the difficulties, let's just say that Fan Li's troops are divided into three branches, echoing from the north to the south, and a team of sailors in the middle drove to the vicinity of the Jiujiang River, where the first place to camp was held, there were three military targets on the opposite side, one called Daye, one called Xingzhou, and one called Qizhou.
So Fan Liang faced such a situation, and he was also thinking about how I can fight this thing? That's right, I just thought that I would serve you a pot, I don't care who you support, I'll go and find out how many people there are in your three places first, and if I can eat you in one go, I'll fight at the same time.
Then he sent spies out to investigate, and when he came back, he said that Qizhou had the most people, claiming to have 10,000 people, but in fact, there were 5,000 people who could fight, and the remaining two places had much fewer people than Qizhou.
Fan Li was quite happy to hear this, because there were a lot of people on my side, so I asked my subordinates to check, and whoever came and who was by my side would check. After checking it back, the people under his command said that our army has arrived all the way, and is ready to fight in Qizhou, and there is also a way to arrive, and it is also ready to fight, but the Tiger Ben army with Duowen on the north road has not arrived.
Of course, Fan Liang didn't feel strange about this situation, he was used to it, the Tiger Ben Army fought with this virtue, people are formal workers, with the establishment, and they don't practice, and they don't mean that they can win in wars.
So Fan Li actually understands that fighting a war has to rely on his own militia regiment to practice, and there are more than 12,000 people in Jibu and Ronan alone. After knowing the bottom of his heart, Fan Liang ordered, let's just do this, your troops are divided into two ways, one is going to fight Xingzhou, and the other is going to attack Daye, even if you Qizhou can support these two places, but you are only 10,000 people, how do I think you can support? This is called the transfer of the tiger from the mountain, and this is called the encirclement of the point to send reinforcements.
But if your people from Qizhou don't come out to support, it's no problem, then you can only watch your iron triangle being breached, and when I take Xingzhou and Daye, your Qizhou will not be far from death.
