Chapter 1023: From the Dragon's Expedition
In the Linzi camp of the Guards, the soldiers armed to the teeth were firmly nailed to their respective posts in three steps and one post in five steps.
The military order is like a mountain, and noise is strictly forbidden in the camp. However, the soldiers, who vaguely knew a little bit of wind in advance, could see each other's joyful eyes even though they kept their mouths shut.
Marching into Kaifeng, supporting the lord to be the emperor, striving to be the first meritorious minister from the dragon, the top and bottom of the Li family army, have long been looking forward to this day!
The seizure of the country relied on strong force, so Li Zhongyi put the military proposal to send troops in the camp of the Guards.
The military battle plan should be kept secret first, and it could not be more appropriate to hold a meeting to discuss it in a heavily guarded Guards camp.
Today's big tent of the Chinese army is different from the past, it has been more than tripled, Li Zhongyi sits in the center, and all the officers and men sit on both sides.
In the middle of the big tent, there are three huge military sand tables side by side, and in order to make these sand tables, the senators and craftsmen of the Senate Department have been busy for several months.
I saw that the sand table was densely packed with small flags of various colors, the rivers were replaced by strips of linen dyed blue, the rolling mountains were yellow, and the slender official roads were thin white lines.
Standing in front of the sand table, as long as the officers who have been trained in the martial arts hall can see the terrain of the mountains and rivers in the entire east of Kaifeng clearly.
Due to the large number of officers summoned this time, if each person was sent a detailed battle plan, it would be too much waste of paper, which is more expensive than gold.
Therefore, Li Zhongyi just arranged for He Dabei, who had a loud voice, to stand in front of the sand table and describe in detail the battle plans of each department. The commanders of the various departments involved took the initiative to stand in front of the sand table, listening to He Dabei's introduction, and taking a pen to make records.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there are people in the court who are trying to lure wolves into the house, collude with the Khitans to go south, and ruin my Chinese life, Lao Tzu will never agree." After all the units had mastered their respective combat objectives, Li Zhongyi slowly got up and roared fiercely, "Do you agree?" ”
"Lao Tzu will never agree to ......"
"his mother......"
"Lord, Li Gu's miscellaneous pieces will be handed over to the last general......"
"It's really a bunch of dogs, the Khitan dogs that Lao Tzu worked so hard to drive away, were actually invited by the imperial court to attack us, and they can't bear it......"
"Mountain Chief, the students swear to follow you to the death, expel the Tartars, and restore the Chinese ......"
"Expelling the Tartars and Restoring Chinese ......"
In the big tent, the morale of the soldiers was like a rainbow, and they were all looking forward to expelling the Tartars and recovering the rivers and mountains.
Well, the military heart is available, Li Zhongyi nodded with satisfaction, and inadvertently met Yang Lie's eyes, Yang Lie seemed to have something to say?
However, Li Zhongyi did not intend to let Yang Lie speak now. There are many opportunities for their master and apprentice to speak, so it is better to leave the time for each other to express their opinions to the middle-level generals who have initially received the task.
In Li Jiajun's military command sequence, the battalion commander is equivalent to the regimental-level cadres of later generations, and the role of connecting the upper and lower generations is very important.
The battalion commander led a force ranging from 600 men to 8 or 900 men, which is roughly the same strength as a regiment.
In this military discussion, Li Zhongyi mainly wanted to listen to the opinions of the battalion commanders. In the course of previous operations, the operational plans drawn up by the Senate Department often failed to keep up with the changes in the battlefield situation, and this required commanders at the battalion and corps levels to adjust their deployment in a timely manner, and this was a great test of their ability to grasp the fighters.
With the continuous development and growth of Li Jiajun, there are more and more troops, and more and more personnel in the Senate Department are also increasing.
When the forest grows, there are all kinds of birds!
The battle plan drawn up by the Senate Department seems to be exhaustive, but in fact, when it comes to the battlefield, the phenomenon of disconnection is very serious.
Li Zhongyi is a commander who pays great attention to details, and the troops have won battles, and they also need to sum up lessons and lessons.
Where there are people, there are circles, there are rivers and lakes, and there are even more rights and wrongs!
The senators of the Senate Division, on many occasions, thought that the battle plans they had drawn up were perfect, and that the front-line commanders had failed to seize the opportunity to expand the results of the battle.
On the other hand, front-line commanders tend to slap their desks, scold the Senate for making serious bureaucratic mistakes, and accuse the Senate of being behind closed doors and making plans unable to keep up with the pace of change.
The officers of different departments quarreled with each other, but Li Zhongyi always adhered to the attitude of Mo Xu and even encouragement.
If you don't quarrel before the war, do you have to wait until after the war starts?
The soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and a small mistake can easily cause the overall passivity, which must be noticed!
I think that at the beginning, during the Liaoshen Campaign, the 3rd Battalion of the 21st Regiment of the 7th Division of Han Xianchu's 3rd Column in Dongye accidentally destroyed Liao Yaoxiang's corps advance command post, as well as the military headquarters of the New 1st Army, the New 3rd Army, and the New Sixth Army, and the liaison radio used by the Liao Corps to command operations was completely destroyed.
Because of such a small episode, more than 100,000 people in the Ninth Corps led by the arrogant Liao Yaoxiang were all annihilated by Dongye, and Liao Yaoxiang himself was captured alive.
As he became more and more experienced in commanding large armies, Li Zhongyi deeply realized that the strength of the ability of officers at the level of battalion commander to adapt to changes when they were in battle often determined the success or failure of the entire battle situation.
"Your plan is very problematic and does not take into account the actual situation of my battalion...... Everyone in our battalion is equipped with heavy armor, and a large part of the assigned war horses have become pannier horses, even if the speed of boarding is not slow, it will take at least an hour and a half to complete the shipment......"
"On the side of the baggage battalion, it is newly equipped with an ultra-wide springboard, and there are wooden ridges on the gangplanks that can be borrowed, and after the boarding drill of the C Battalion of the Guards, it is more than enough for an hour......
The battalion commanders and senators were arguing and arguing, and it was more than twice as noisy as the vegetable market.
Li Zhongyi touched his chin and looked at the quarreling people interestingly, quarrel, quarrel, the harder the quarrel, the smaller the chance of making mistakes in the future.
Li Yongtang, the commander of the artillery battalion, was a guy who didn't like to join in the fun, and he bracked his ears and silently listened to the quarrels he was interested in.
The artillery battalion, in the entire Li family army, belongs to a special branch of the military with a very high status and excellent treatment.
Li Zhongyi once said that every soldier in the artillery battalion is the most valuable asset, and he must be given special care like protecting his eyeballs.
Li Yongtang felt thirsty, raised his hand and wanted to pick up the tea jar, but inadvertently saw Li Zhongyi staring at him intently.
Li Zhongyi was about to look for Li Yongtang, so he beckoned him to him and asked him with a smile: "The people on the list have been properly disposed of?" ”
Li Yongtang looked around, deliberately lowered the door, and whispered: "The Goryeo gunsmiths on the list have all been sent to the ship to cross the sea. They are all overjoyed, and they can finally take your reward money and go back to China to enjoy a happy little life. Mysteriously winced his eyes.
Li Zhongyi nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "I have always been relieved that you do things." Following Li Yongtang's appearance, he also pretended to squeeze his eyes mysteriously.
