Luo Zhaoyun ordered the rectification of the three armies, sent the wounded to the rear, transported the armor and grain and grass for a month, replenished the missing men and horses, and at the same time transferred some rising stars to participate in this battle, such as Lai Heng, He Ruohuaikuo, and Fan Dongyin, who were transferred from the three refugee counties and integrated into the army, all of them started with the rank of captain.

The generals of Mai Tiecane, Mai Mengcai, and Mai Jicai are the pillars of the army, and Xue Wanren and Xue Wanbei are all talented tiger generals who will be of great use in the future.

It can be said that the two generals Mai and Xue and their sons are definitely the main force of the campaign, and at this time, under Luo Zhaoyun's account, they have a good role in strengthening and increasing the power of the Luo family's army.

Twenty-five or sixteen-year-old Luo Zhaoyun, who has been in the army for ten years, has experienced hundreds of battles, accumulated experience, and has passed the weak crown, matured a lot, gestures, and steady, and has a mentality and temperament that does not change the color of Mount Tai, so that some older generals recognize his marshal status, which is well deserved.

Although Luo Zhaoyun did not go out to fight, he eliminated a lot of scouts, and at the same time, the intelligence organization was constantly sending back new information.

The Gao clan of the Northern Qi Dynasty has asked for help from the four frontier grassland tribes in the northeast, namely Xi, Khitan, Jian, and Murowei, and deliberately has many benefits, such as grain, land, beauties, Han slaves, etc., and the Gao clan intends to bring in strong foreign aid through this way of showing weakness to the grassland people.

The nomads have strong cavalry, which is the confidence that the Gao clan lacks, and the external strength that needs to be relied on.

Because to train an iron horseman, not only a horse can be used, but a good breed of war horse is required, and the training of knights is not easy, and the funds required to raise an elite iron horse of 10,000 people may be the price of 50,000 infantry.

With the financial resources behind the Luo family, he can only build the most elite 10,000 iron cavalry, which belongs to his Chinese army, and the equipment and war horses used by the rest of the cavalry, the level of the knights is definitely weaker than that of the Chinese iron cavalry.

In the account of the marshal of Linyu Guancheng.

The generals gathered together, shining in iron clothes and a heroic spirit.

There are three generals, all of whom are Yingyanglang generals and veterans of Yuyang and Beiping counties, more than 10 partial generals, and 30 or 40 captains.

Mai Tie Cane is the rank of general of the imperial court, but in this leading army, it is the position of general of the former army.

Luo Zhaoyun sat on the main seat and said sonorously: "The Khitan, Jin and other tribes have also sent troops, more than 8,000, less than 2,000, close to 20,000 iron cavalry, plus 5,000 cavalry in the Gao family's soldiers and horses, the number has reached 25,000 people, which has surpassed the current number of cavalry in Linyu Pass. ”

Mai Tiecane said: "Marshal, the last general has fought with the Turkic cavalry many times, and there is a way to deal with the nomadic cavalry, why don't you let me take the lead and have a big showdown with these nomadic cavalry?" ”

Luo Zhaoyun said: "You can outwit, you can't be a hard enemy, if you put the main army into the battle, both sides will lose both, even if you close the hidden dangers outside the border, it is not in our interests!" ”

"Oh, how to outwit, please give the order of the marshal." Mai Tiezhu knew that this Young Marshal Luo was resourceful and had no rules for using soldiers, since he said so, he may have already made a plan.

"The best way to deal with the nomadic cavalry is to lure the enemy deep, and then set up an ambush to attack, most of the cavalry of the nomadic tribe are herdsmen, gathered for battle, scattered for the people, wild untrained, Hu Feng is serious, as long as we retreat, we will definitely be able to attract the enemy to pursue."

"That's a good plan!" Many generals think it is feasible.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly: "It's not so easy, if it's just the cavalry of the Hu clan, it will be easy to do, now there is the cooperation of the Northern Qi relics, they have been hidden in the clan for decades, in the scheming tricks, there must be old scheming, resourceful, can restrain and not be fooled, our army's strategy will not work, moreover, the commander also got the news that the Gao clan sent people to Goguryeo, and is still sparing no effort to pull foreign aid and make enemies for us, so we must quickly solve this battle." ”

At this time, He Ruohuai stood up and said: "Dashuai, since there are many foreign enemies, why don't we stay in Linyu Pass, close the door, and wait for them to attack, so that we can wait for work, the Hu clan can't reap the benefits, so they naturally retreat, the Gao clan has no people outside the pass as the foundation, can't collect taxes, that county only has tens of thousands of people, and it is not enough for them to divide up and support the huge cost of military and horse food and salary, so we can afford it completely." ”

"That's a good suggestion, just wait for work." Many generals feel that He Ruobi's son He Ruohuai also knows how to use soldiers and calculate, and he is worthy of being born in a famous family.

Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and said: "Yan County is in a hurry, there are tens of thousands of people in Yan County in the city of governance, as well as our generals, they need us to rescue, once the city is broken, it is conceivable that those Khitan and Yan cavalry will definitely divide these people, as slaves and bring them back to the deep tribes in the northeast, their property will also be occupied by the remnants of the Gao clan, and the family will be completely destroyed, in our army, there are people from Yan County, fire captains, team leaders, centurions, school captains, and thousands of soldiers, their families are in Yan County, how can we bear it, and we will not save it when we die." , give up and ignore it, just watch them being devoured by the flames of war, women and children being plundered? ”

When his words came out, all the generals in the audience were silent, this is related to the morale of the army, as well as the level of benevolence, righteousness and morality, no one opened their mouths nonsense.

Even He Ruohuai's face was a little red, feeling a little ashamed of his plan just now, and he was a little unscrupulous in order to win, ignoring the life and death of the people.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with his approach, at least in the art of war, winning without a fight is already considered clever.

However, Luo Zhaoyun will not do this, he is not an ordinary general, but a king who wants to be a hero, and the hearts of the people are far more important to him than a victory.

"Poof!" The two lieutenants rushed out, knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed to Luo Zhaoyun a few times, and choked up: "Thank you, Dashuai, think of the people in Yan County, subordinates...... The subordinates' families are in Yangle City, the seat of Yanjun County, and there are indeed some soldiers in the army, their wives and children, all in that city, and they beg the marshal to help. ”

After the two lieutenants heard He Ruohuaikuo's proposal just now, their faces were as dead as ashes, and they were worried, and after hearing the marshal's words, they ran out excitedly to intercede.

Luo Zhaoyun swept the faces of these generals, and from the eyes of these people, he also saw a lot of expectations.

Soldiers are often affectionate, straightforward, fleshy, and able to distinguish simple right from wrong, and are waiting for the marshal's decision at the moment.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly and said: "Don't worry, the commander of Yan County will do his best to rescue, there are not only soldiers under my command, but also tens of thousands of people, I must not let the tragedy of Wuhu Chaohua happen again, I will not let these Hu tribes invade the northern land again, we are soldiers, we must protect the territory, let our relatives be trampled and slaughtered by iron hooves, send troops to Yan County, will not change!" ”
