Chapter 357: General Mobilization Before the War
After listening to Luo Zhaoyun's advice, Yang Guang overfulfilled the task, and immediately showed a little appreciation, rewarded him on the spot, and gave him some colored silk, gold, etc. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Luo Zhaoyun thanked him, he said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if Luo Cheng needs to lead the army to kill the enemy this time?" ”
Yang Guang smiled slightly, his eyes flickered, and he seemed to hesitate slightly: "No need, you have been busy these days, doing things for my secret order, and you have done it so well, I am very satisfied, I don't have to work hard to kill the enemy anymore, I have appointed you as the head of the march of one of the six battalions in front of the emperor, and you can follow me to drive the expedition." ”
Luo Zhaoyun was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he would be removed from office this time, and he didn't have to participate in the big war.
Fortunately, he didn't have much interest in sending troops to Goguryeo, and he no longer had to desire victory to prove himself and raise his reputation, so he immediately took the order and said something to thank the lord Longen.
Back in the array of ministers in the main hall, he secretly suspected Yang Guang's thoughts, and had some answers.
Maybe it's because Luo Zhaoyun has been too famous in recent years, he has been ambitious as a young man, and he has been named a general and prince at the age of eighteen or nineteen, and he also destroyed Tuyuhun and completed a territory expansion, which caused many people's eyes to be hot, if he continues to lead troops in front this time, he will inevitably win the limelight of many people.
The 24th Route Army, so many famous Sui generals and tiger generals, are all famous in the Sui Dynasty, and they are powerful in all directions, Luo Zhaoyun is still shallow in the military compared to those people, so Yang Guang does not intend to give him too much eye-catching and shining almost, leaving some face for other generals, which is beyond reproach.
On the other hand, as an emperor, the most taboo is to be a master of high merit, to know how to balance, if you try your best to support a person, it is easy to become a proud minister, a favored minister, a high power, often even the emperor does not look inside, Yang Guang is also a jealous person, I don't want to see Luo Cheng has always been radiant, civil and military all-rounder, to seize the limelight of his king.
Therefore, this time, the envoys of more than 20 states in the Western Regions followed, and the leaders of the tribes of the grassland came to observe, what a magnificent pomp, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty planned to become the protagonist himself, and all the armies from all walks of life must listen to his full command and dispatch, so as to show his ability to transfer troops, shock the Quartet, and highlight his amazing talent in front of the kings, leaders, and envoys of Fanbang foreign lands.
This kind of arrogant and good-faced mind is simply a disaster for the national war, because it is too light on the enemy and child's play, and the war is not taken seriously at all.
Probably because Goguryeo is indeed not large, and according to the comparison of national strength and military strength, it is indeed difficult to compare with the Great Sui, so it gives people the illusion that the army will win immediately.
Luo Zhaoyun didn't try to recommend himself, so he didn't know how to promote, because when the emperor was already suspicious of you, you didn't know how to advance or retreat, not only was it unwise to disobey in public, but also gave the king a feeling that you were greedy for military power, and you were putting yourself in danger.
"You don't need me, forget it, for Da Sui, I have tried my best, everything depends on the development of history." Luo Zhaoyun slandered in his heart, it was not that he didn't want to help, but he was really powerless, when he didn't have enough ability and right to speak, and even his own safety was restricted and threatened, how could he care about the direction of history?
"When the armies from all walks of life arrive, on August 20, we will officially send troops to Goguryeo!"
"I wish my emperor, success, expansion of territory, immortality!" Yu Shiji and Su Wei took the lead in shouting, and the rest of the ministers also echoed.
"Hahaha-" Yang Guang smiled, stroked his thick beard, and looked like a king over the world.
………
After the palace council, Luo Zhaoyun went to the right army of the imperial camp to report, and became the head of this military horse, in fact, the imperial camp army is the reorganization of the imperial city and the imperial forest army, and when following the emperor's expedition, in order to increase the momentum, the Praetorian Guard was renamed the imperial camp army, which is equivalent to the commander of the Chinese army.
A total of 80,000 people came to the imperial camp, and in addition to 5,000 Qianniu Beishen and Ouchi guards, the remaining 75,000 people were divided into six armies, divided into the left army, the right army, the inner army, the outer army, the front army, and the rear army, each army had 12,500 people.
Being a general here, to put it bluntly, is to fill up the numbers indiscriminately, go through the motions, and will not really go into battle to kill the enemy, because the first task is to protect the safety of His Majesty.
It can be said that Luo Zhaoyun was idle in this war.
However, Yang Guang didn't seem to completely snub him, which chilled the young marshal of the Great Sui, so when he heard that a large army had rushed to Zhuojun or Yuyang and set up camp, Yang Guang would send Luo Zhaoyun and Sima Dejiao, Zhao Xingshu and others to the camp to inspect on behalf of His Majesty.
At the junction of Yuyang County and Zhuo County, the 24th Army came one after another, and no general dared to delay on the road.
Nearly one million Sui troops, the prestige is huge, and each army is camped for several miles, and the momentum is magnificent.
In each army, there is one general (marching chief) and one sub-general (deputy commander-in-chief), and four patterns for each of the three arms of cavalry, infantry, and baggage, and each regiment has a partial general, and a total of 12 regiments are commanded.
Each regiment of the cavalry regiment has ten teams, each team has 100 people, and each regiment has 1,000 cavalry. Each infantry regiment has 20 teams and 2,000 troops, and the baggage regiment is skirmishers. The infantry marched with heavy baggage, and each army had about 30,000 troops.
In addition, each army is assigned a messenger to be surrendered, and he is ordered to carry out consolation work, and is not subject to the control of the general. In fact, it is the person who supervises the army and transmits the emperor's order, responds to the general's behavior in a timely manner, and conveys the emperor's secret decree and military order, which must be followed, otherwise it is a capital crime, even if the battle is won, but violating the emperor's order.
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty thus 'personally gave the festival' to all the 30 armies and implemented the command of the battle, so he was the supreme commander of the battlefield, and he issued the military orders for the front battle.
After Luo Zhaoyun heard this, he sneered in his heart, the military situation is changing rapidly, there was no telephone and wireless telegraph in ancient times, there would be a time lag in transmitting military orders, the situation had already changed, such a way of playing, it is strange to be undefeated.
