Chapter 151: The Two Armies Go to War, and People Come to Home
Although he was put on a table by Ji Linbing, people had to bow their heads under the eaves, who let themselves have to eat with others.
Zhu Changsheng, who has been in office for several years, has long lost his previous celebrity and heroic style, and after a simple tidying up, he honestly took over the military order and took over the command of the Zhou army in Tuxian County as a military counselor, temporarily replacing the original general Suo Ya, who was depressed physically and mentally.
The generals of the Zhou army in Tuxian County are well aware of Suoya's current mental condition, and they have long expected the change of generals, although Zhu Changsheng is only a temporary commander, but there is Ji Linbing behind to support him.
No matter what he thought in his heart, on the bright side, the generals of the Zhou army in Tuxian County were still very cooperative with Zhu Changsheng, and it took three days of hard work for Zhu Changsheng to preliminarily complete the handover of military power with Suoya.
Well......... said that it was handed over to Suoya, but in fact, Suoya's physical condition couldn't get out of the house at all, so what really connected with Zhu Changsheng was Deputy General Song Xiaoshan and several powerful generals in the army.
However, no matter what you say, Zhu Changsheng finally got the military power, however, mastering the military power is only the first step for Zhu Changsheng to take charge of the army.........
……………
There are more than 40,000 people in the Zhou army in Tuxian County, and the military affairs involved are as cumbersome as the sea, and Zhu Changsheng has just taken the position, not to mention going through all these military affairs from his hands, at least he must understand some important matters, so as to save himself from being confused and unable to deal with any emergencies in the future.
Secondly, Zhu Changsheng was ready to take turns to meet the generals and elites of the various units under his command, after all, if he wanted to command the battle in the future, he had to know what virtues his generals and troops were, what strengths they were good at, and what weaknesses and flaws they had.
In this way, it was convenient for Zhu Changsheng to command the army, march and set up formations, and devise plans.
In addition to understanding the stickers of his generals' troops, Zhu Changsheng also wanted to personally survey the important terrain near the Zhou army and Yanlin, and even if it was safe, it was best to check the Jin army camp.
In addition, there is also logistics, fighting a war, fighting a war, fighting is the word money and food, which is the most important thing, and we must not be sloppy at all.
Zhu Changsheng is a newcomer, his foundation is still shallow, and he was a civilian official before, and there are many people in the army who are obedient to him openly and secretly unconvinced.
Therefore, Zhu Changsheng planned to start from logistics, as long as he held the lifeblood of money, food, and ordnance, he was confident that this group of arrogant soldiers would be honest for him to drive.
These things are troublesome to say, and it is not easy to do, with Zhu Changsheng's wisdom, he has been busy for half a month before he finally sorted out the things in his hand.
At this time, it was already early September.
…………
The eighth day of the ninth month of the 14th year of Liyang.........
Well, from Zhou Jun's side, it should be the eighth day of the ninth month of the fifth year of Amano.
In short, no matter which emperor of the two countries is counted according to the year name, on the eighth day of the ninth month, Counselor Zhu, who took over the barren mountain Zhou camp for nearly half a month, ordered the generals to deliberate.
Suo Ya, who is still recuperating behind closed doors, did not participate in this meeting because he has not "recovered", but in order to show his support for Zhu Changsheng, who presided over the meeting for the first time, Suo Anbei sent his own personal guard commander to attend.
Of course, although Suo Ya's move is to show his support for Zhu Changsheng, there is another meaning in it, that is, to brush his sense of existence.
The nominal commander of this force is still Tasuoya.
In this regard, Zhu Changsheng naturally understood, but he didn't mean to be dissatisfied, he had long known that sooner or later Suo Ya would return to military power, and he was just a transition.
After all, Suo Ya had lost two games in a row before, and he had to avoid the limelight somewhat, and Zhu Changsheng took over Suo Ya in power during this period, which was to give Suo Ya Taoguang time to recuperate, and then to keep control of this Zhou army for Suo Ya (or Ji Linbing behind it).
By the way, Zhu Changshi himself also took this opportunity to add a sum of qualifications, gilded, after all, Zhu Changsheng, the five-grade palace chief, has also been a junior for two years, so it is reasonable to move up.
Ji Linbing's moves were very good, and with Zhu Changsheng's resourcefulness, he only roughly figured out his thoughts after thinking about it for two days, and then he was greatly satisfied.
If you can be promoted, this black pot will be worth it.........
It's just that there are still some disagreements between Zhu Changsheng and Ji Linbing, so Ji Linbing means that he wants Zhu Changsheng to stabilize the situation in Yanlin, don't take the sword lightly, and wait for the rumors to pass and Suoya recovers before going to war.
To put it bluntly, Ji Linbing didn't believe in Zhu Changsheng's military ability, so he wanted him to honestly confront the Yanlin Jin army for two or three months, and then wait for Suoya to come out of the mountain before taking action.
However, Zhu Changsheng didn't want to stand still as Ji Linbing instructed, and he was in charge of the military for the first time, and he couldn't wait to make some meritorious deeds.
Not to mention beating Yan Lin down, at least it will also make Yan Lin Jin Jun fall a little flesh.
…………
With this idea, Zhu Changshi ignored the military orders of His Royal Highness King Li, and after initially sorting out the military affairs in the army, he called the generals and prepared to attack the Jin army camp.
The generals were not surprised by Zhu Changsheng's thoughts, nonsense, Zhou Changsheng inquired about military affairs every day, met with the generals one by one to understand the generals' troops, analyzed the enemy situation and formulated a battle plan, and at the same time personally rode to the Jin army and the surrounding camps to investigate.
With such obvious signs, a fool can see that this Counselor Zhu is not a person who wants to live in peace, and it is normal for him to want to use troops to attack the Jin army.
However, it can be seen that the generals still agree with Zhu Changsheng's proposal to move troops, the previous two defeats, the generals of the Zhou army were very unconvinced, and they had long wanted to fight again, and Zhu Changsheng wanted to go to war, which was exactly what they wanted.
As a result, all the generals spoke out in favor of it, which was a decision on the mobilization of the Yanlin Jin army, but there was no specific charter for how to fight this battle.
Barren Mountain Zhou Camp, Handsome Tent
Zhu Changsheng wore a bronze crown and light armor, sat on the handsome seat, his mind turned, and after glancing around at the generals, he finally looked at Song Xiaoshan.
"Old General Song, the Jin army is holding on to the big camp and it is not easy to attack, do you have any good strategies to break the enemy."
Zhu Changsheng was in charge of the army for the first time this time, and he was very unfamiliar with many military affairs before, and it was all thanks to the assistance of Song Xiaoshan, a veteran general who has been in the army for decades, that he was able to enter the role so quickly.
It is precisely because of this that after getting along during this time, Zhu Changsheng has a very good perception and trust in Song Xiaoshan, and if there is anything difficult, he is also the first to ask Song Xiaoshan.
…………
Song Xiaoshan is getting older and older, and he doesn't look at some things lightly, although Zhu Changsheng values it very much, he doesn't look too happy.
The old man wrinkled his wrinkled old face, groaned for a moment, and finally shook his head.
"Counselor, forgive the old man's words, now the two armies have fought several times, and the Jin army has been extremely prepared against our army, according to the scouts, Qin Qi, the chief general of the Jin army, has not been idle during this period, constantly strengthening the fortifications and repairing the defense.
Every day, there are no less than hundreds of scouts and spies sent to the vicinity of our army, and if there is a small sound in our army, the other side can respond immediately, and in such a situation, if our army attacks the camp, it can only attack according to the superiority of troops.
And the trick is not to pour cold water on the old man, but it is really difficult to apply in the current situation. ”
As soon as the old general's voice fell, a few Zhou generals immediately nodded in agreement, and although the rest of the generals did not speak, none of them said that they and Song Xiaoshan had the same meaning.
At this time, Zhu Changsheng was silent.
In fact, as the current commander of the Zhou army, Zhu Changsheng has a lot of information, and he knows what Song Xiaoshan said, but the method of attacking is too simple and rude, and the damage to the troops is also great, and the effect is not obvious.
Zhu Changsheng prides himself on being a wise and resourceful man, and he still wants to come up with a strange trick to cure the enemy, annihilate the Yanlin Jin army at the smallest cost, and then become famous in a battle.
But the dream is beautiful, but the reality is cold and cruel.
The real facts tell Zhu Changsheng that don't think about becoming famous in the first battle, let's honestly fight a war of attrition with the Yanlin Jin army, unless the main general of the Jin army is crazy and takes the initiative to die, or friendly troops come to help and encircle Yanlin.
Otherwise, according to the forces in his hands, a strong attack may not have any results in two or three months, and after two or three months, Zhu Changsheng is really not sure whether he is still the chief general of the Zhou army in Tuxian County.
"Alas, if you have the heart to make contributions, when will you not help me."
Zhu Changsheng sighed, his expression was slightly embarrassed, but he said everything, no matter what, this battle has to be fought, so he should accumulate command experience.
Zhu Changsheng comforted himself in his heart, calmed down his mood, and then assigned combat tasks to the generals, and when the military order was completed, Counselor Zhu stood up, held a long sword in his hand, and shouted at the generals.
"Early tomorrow morning, we will raise troops to attack the Jin army camp."
"I'll do as I was told."
…………
The next day, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the Chung Yeung Festival
Zhu Changsheng raised 30,000 troops to attack the Jin army's camp, and Qin Qi, who had already received the Zhou army's troops, arranged his generals and soldiers to guard the camp in a hurry.
After half a day of fierce fighting.
Zhu Changsheng looked at the Jin army camp that had not moved at all after the Zhou army had charged several times, his brows were tightly locked, he was silent for a long time, looked at Song Xiaoshan on the side, and said in a somewhat tired tone
"Collect the troops."
General Song's face was also very unsightly, although he had been mentally prepared before, but when the fight really started, the impermeable and stable defense of the Jin army camp was still a headache for the generals of the Zhou army.
In the past half a day, thousands of lives have been filled in, and there has not even been a splash, so the difficulty of attacking the fortification is no less than the siege of a major town.
"It looks like we're going to be ready for a protracted war."
General Song has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience, and after today's battle, he understands that the Jin army camp in front of him is enough for them to be busy for a few months.
It doesn't have to be able to gnaw it off.........
I don't know how many Erlang have to be smashed into, Song Xiaoshan sighed in his heart a little gloomy, but his face was still the old general with a calm face.
The command flag in his hand flew up and down, left and right a few times, and the rear team got the news and immediately began to beat gongs and drums.
This is the collection of Ming Jin.
…………
The Zhou army retreated one after another, and Qin Qi, who was sitting behind the front line of the camp, received the news as soon as possible.
Qin Qi nodded calmly, and then ordered a general to clean up the battlefield and record his exploits, after dealing with these, Qin Qi took the personal guards back to the commander's tent, as soon as he entered the door and took off his armor, he looked at the personal guard commander next to him.
"There's news from General Yan."
The commander of the personal guard clasped his fists and replied: "The letter just came yesterday, General Yan's recruitment is progressing smoothly, and he is expected to return to the camp before September 20. ”
Qin Qi bowed his head, pondered for a moment and said: "I will send him a letter in a while, the Zhou army will attack the camp, let him speed up the recruitment process, and return to the camp as early as possible." ”
The commander of the guards led the order and left, while Qin Qi returned to the back tent to rest.
Now the degree of the Zhou army's offensive is relatively not too violent, the Jin army camp has sufficient troops, Qin Qi is not too stressed, and he recognizes it to deal with the attack of the Zhou army, so he does not plan to force Yan Kui to return to the camp, but in case, Qin Qi still sent a letter to ask Yan Kui to return to the camp as soon as possible.
Three days later, September 12
Yan Kui, who was in Jixian, received a letter from Qin Qi, and he was still pretending, so he immediately accelerated the speed of recruitment.
Two thousand system soldiers were released by Yan Kui as early as a few days ago, and Lin Kui was scattered all over the two counties.
On September 12, Yan Kui ordered to speed up the recruitment process.
Five days later, on September 17, two thousand "recruits" were fully recruited.
Yan Kui left Chen Xingxiao, who was specially reassigned to his command, to be responsible for the next "recruits" training work of the whole army, and he took his personal guards and returned to the Yanlin Jin army camp quickly.
The next day, on the night of September 18, Yan Kui returned to the camp, and after seeing Qin Qi's return to life, he returned to the camp, and as soon as he sat down, Guangshan walked in with a happy face.
"General, look who this is."
Yan Kui, who hadn't had time to take off his armor, looked at the excited and happy young man in front of him, and his face was a little surprised.
"Third child, why are you here?"
