Chapter 371: The Rabbit Fights the Lion
The army opened and rushed to Youzhou, accompanied by Feng Qiudao and Han Dashi. Fang Zheng even brought all his team with him, in order to prevent himself from being killed by the enemy, Fang Zheng not only expanded his pro-army team to more than 2,000 people, but also carefully created an invulnerable armor for himself, the material of this armor is made of 10,000-year-old cold iron, a knife will not leave even a small trace, with the hardness of this armor, Fang Zheng estimates that even if someone detonates a nuclear bomb this year, he can live well.
If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.
Fang Zheng's first priority now is to maximize his safety factor, and survive unscathed on that bloody battlefield, so he will never dare to slack off on personal safety.
The armor is very beautiful, silver and white, but the disadvantage is that it is heavier, one or twenty pounds heavier than ordinary armor.
Fang Zheng didn't mind. Although the extra weight of one or twenty pounds on his body made him more tired, he felt a sense of security that he had never felt before, and with this, it was worth it to be tired.
The army continued to march. Fang Zheng is the main general, riding a horse in the Chinese army, his two thousand pro-army firmly surround him in the middle, impermeable, all the pro-army is the elite of the Great Inner Forbidden Army specially allocated to him by the fat man, they all have excellent martial arts, and more importantly, they are loyal. In any case, they sacrifice themselves to preserve the Lord's vocation.
Fang Zheng enjoyed the feeling of being so carefully protected, so many people walked together densely, except for a little lack of oxygen, there was no need to worry about safety.
Midori also rode a horse. Walking side by side with Fang Zheng, the army was not allowed to bring female dependents when going out, so Xiao Lu dressed himself as Fang Zheng's pro-army and accompanied him as a matter of course.
The army of 10,000 people is like a rushing torrent. Roll north.
Fang Zheng rode on his horse. Looking at the front without a head and a tail at the back, the vast and continuous team couldn't help but smile proudly, raised the horsewhip in his hand, and smiled at Xiao Lu: "Ruguanwu's army, is it quite majestic?" ”
Xiao Lu pursed his lips and smiled: "Strong, very majestic, young master, you will definitely be able to win a big victory this time."
Fang Zheng looked up to the sky and smiled proudly, leading so many people to fight, he was still the first time in his life, he didn't dare to say if he was victorious, it must be very convenient to escape.
Xiao Lu blinked and said softly: "Young Master, now the people of the people say that you are the god of war,"
Fang Zheng's laughter stopped. Surprised: "God of War? "I'm the god of war?"
Green smiled: "Yes, the people say that you will definitely win the Northern Expedition if you lead the army, because young master, you have always won all battles." You see, you won the fight against Pan Shangshu, you won the fight against the prince, you also won, beat the king of Thailand, or you won, the people said. Behind the young master is standing the gods and Buddhas of the heavens, as long as the young master leads the troops, God will bless our Hua Dynasty. ”
Rao is Fang Zheng is thick-skinned like a bend in the city wall, and he heard the praise of the people. His cheekiness still blushed involuntarily, and then quickly returned to his normal color.
The common people of Ran Dai are not stupid!
Fang Zheng sighed in his heart.
Regardless of whether this praise is true or not, when the words reach his ears, he can only fight desperately, since he has been named the god of war, if he doesn't win a battle and go back, he will be embarrassed to greet people when he goes out, the ancient people have learned to use public opinion to build momentum, and people's hearts are really insidious! Why is this embarrassing to run away?
Fang Zheng felt a little more pressure in his heart.
Originally, he planned to retreat a hundred miles if the battle situation was not good, but now he had the title of "God of War" on his head inexplicably, and the thin-skinned Generalissimo Fang secretly decided to retreat only fifty miles!
The army has been walking for half a month, and then it reached the boundary of Youzhou, where the local garrison led more than 1,000 people to ride in person, went out of the camp to meet more than 30 miles, and respectfully welcomed the more than 10,000 elites led by Fang Zheng into the camp.
The large camp is stationed in the east of Youzhou City for more than ten miles, the barracks are in the shape of plum blossoms, three or five flowers are scattered, the vast plain is occupied full, there are a total of 100,000 new troops stationed here, at present, the emperor has ordered them to be all incorporated into the Northern Expeditionary Army sequence, in the coming days, Fang Zheng will lead them, and the Turkic Mosi Khan will fight to the death on the grassland, with the results of the war, to determine the master-slave status of the two countries in the next few decades or even hundreds of years.
At that time, Fang Zheng had been appointed by the fat man as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, that is to say, now the military power of the entire Hua Dynasty has been fully grasped in his hands, in the extraordinary war period, every order he gave did not need to be reported to the emperor and the military department for approval, but could directly give orders to the soldiers of the whole world, I have to say that the fat man's trust in him is indeed incomprehensible, not only did he not hesitate to let go of the military power of the whole country, but also knew that Fang Zheng did not like to be restrained, and even the supervision of the army did not appoint him, the whole. The army left him at his mercy.
As soon as Fang Zheng stepped into the tent of the big battalion, he ordered the pro-army to beat the drum and gather the generals, and after a while, the generals of the camp rushed to hear the order, and the rank of the military attache was arranged, and the brand-new ones sat down in two rows in the tent.
As the marshal of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Fang Zheng sat in the first place as a matter of course, standing on his left with a green soldier dressed as a soldier, and on his right was Wen Sen, who did not belong to the army sequence, but was his most powerful arm.
Fang Zheng smiled at the generals in the marshal's tent and looked around, his gaze crossed Feng Qiudao and Han Dashi, who were in the first place, and fell on a military general in the third rank.
Well, old acquaintances. Plain weight. At that time, the deputy general of the capital city defense army supported the former prince to rebel, and later temporarily defected before the battle. played a key role in the rebellion of Prince Ping, after the rebellion was pacified, the Criminal Department and the Ministry of War after several studies and reviews, believed that Qin Chong's merits were greater than his faults, and finally decided not to punish him, but because of his behavior of supporting the former prince, it has become a stain that he can not erase for the rest of his life, so after the rebellion, the court has been hiding it and putting it alone, until Fang Zheng was appointed as the chief general of the Northern Expedition. Re-enable. Fang Zheng still remembered Qin Chong's tearful expression at that time, and the five-foot-tall Angzang man knelt down in front of Fang Zheng. Crying like a child, although he didn't say a word of allegiance, Fang Zheng knew that from the moment he was reactivated, this young brave and resourceful tiger general could finally be used by him.
The congregation will be called by the congregation. After the dot. After making sure that everything was ready, Fang Zheng started the first high-level military meeting of the Northern Expedition in the tent.
One by one, the generals straightened their bodies, their faces expressionless, and their eyes were level; The vague fighting spirit and murderous aura gradually spread in the handsome tent, on the other hand, Generalissimo Fang, holding Erlang's legs high, squinting his eyes and looking at the generals one by one. Sitting or not sitting, the majesty of the marshal is gone.
After a long time, Fang Zheng cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Brothers"
"Roar!"
All the generals stood up together and shouted in unison: "The last general listens to the order!" ”
Fang Zheng was so frightened that he fell backwards, but fortunately, Xiao Lu reached out in time to help him. That's why I didn't make a fool of myself on the spot.
"Ahem, you don't have to be so serious, you all relax a little, speak quietly, Marshal Ben is a fragile man, and he can't stand your scare Fang Zheng stroked his chest with a palpitation.
Generals:
Feng Qiudao is most familiar with Fang Zheng. Since he was very aware of this old brother Fang's usual behavior, he heard the words and said: "Fang, marshal." Are you going to give us the order to attack? The generals have been waiting for this moment for a long time. Please abandon the marshal's order, we will definitely live up to the emperor's trust, attack and kill the Mo Si department with the power of thunder, and cut off his head and dedicate it to the marshal's account."
Fang Zheng said with a disgusted face: "If you cut off your head, you will cut off your head, why do you want to sacrifice it to my account?" Flesh blur what's so nice to see" Besides, do you think it's the best time to get out of the fight now? ”
The generals thought about it when they heard this, and felt that what Fang Zheng said made sense, so they lowered their heads and remained silent.
Fang Zheng said with a smile: "This is leaving, you are all generals of a hundred battles who have led troops to fight for many years, so you naturally know the truth of knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, we just arrived in Youzhou, and we don't know anything about the enemy's troop deployment, generals used, combat habits, etc., and you have no head to attack, isn't that looking for death?" ”
At this time, an adjutant general outside the tent door stood up, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Marshal, the last general Huang Wei, is in charge of military investigation." According to the latest report of the spies, the main force of the Turkic Mosi, a total of 90,000 troops, is currently stationed three hundred miles east of Youzhou, and the front of the troops is directed at the Tashan camp of the Mojian Company, and even sent a small number of cavalry a few days ago to make a tentative attack on our Youzhou, which was defeated by the cavalry of our army,"
Fang Zheng Renleng. Touching his chin and muttering: "Mo Xuan can actually divide his troops to test Youzhou's reaction now, and it is estimated that Mo Jianlian may be almost defeated,"
Huang Weidao: "Because the strength of the division is less than 50,000 now, our Hua Dynasty secretly funded grain and grass weapons, and they are still struggling to resist the attack of Mo Si, and they have been firmly stationed in the Tashan camp, and have never taken half a step back. ”
Fang Zheng's eyes rolled, and he pondered: "Is the strength of the national teacher less than 50,000 anymore?" Hmm" I can't see that the endurance of such a dry and thin old man is quite long-lasting, comparable to the durability of this marshal. If I go to the kiln with him, I am afraid that he will not be weaker than me in the slightest. ”
Midori blushed. He quickly withdrew his hand and glared at him angrily.
Fang Zheng came back to his senses, met the expressions of the generals with black lines on his head, and said calmly: "How many troops does that Lao Tzu have now?" ”
Huang Wei said respectfully: "Due to the Turkic civil war, the soldiers on both sides have suffered a lot of losses, and there are still 90,000 of Mosi's main force left, and in addition," the former Youzhou guard general Chai Mengshan who defected to the grassland, and there are 20,000 Chinese Dynasty soldiers who all support Mosi, and Mosi's strength is about 110,000
"! Dead traitor! Throughout the ages, how many big things have been bad in the hands of these traitors! Fang Zheng scolded hatefully. Then he pondered: "The enemy has 110,000 troops, what about us, the newly trained new army has 100,000, I brought 10,000 elites from the capital, plus the original 40,000 garrisons in Youzhou, the Xiazhou border army Dong Cheng has 80,000, and the Xingqing Mansion Wang Wenjian has 150,000 border troops. Why don't I understand it?"
Vincent wiped his sweat and said, "My lord, there are 380,000 troops in total."
Fang Zheng's eyes lit up: "Three hundred and eighty thousand, Mo Si only has one hundred thousand, our troops are three times his strength, it shouldn't be difficult to win this battle, right?" ”
Feng Qiudao smiled bitterly: "Marshal, although we have 380,000 troops, we are not bad, but only half of them can go to the battlefield to fight the Turks, because we don't have many cavalry, and if the infantry army fights with the Turkic cavalry." It is simply sent to death, and the border army of Xingqing Mansion and Xiazhou is far away from us, and the order will reach them, but it is impossible to maintain the same time with our army, which makes the strategic offensive of the whole army have certain variables, marshal, seriously speaking, our chances of victory are still not high."
Fang Zheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, he was stunned for a long time, and said: "Three hundred and eighty-thousand troops, it turns out that "it's not very useful?" How many centaurs can we use? ”
Feng Qiudao thought for a moment; Said: "Those who can be sent to the battlefield, Xingqing Mansion and Xiazhou border army, not to mention, only here in Youzhou, we can send more than 100,000 horses, of which 100,000 are still recruits who have just finished training and have not undergone battlefield training,"
Fang Zheng froze, then jumped up and shouted, "Damn! With such a few centaurs, we are against the Turks, can we beat them? Don't play anymore! Lao Tzu is no longer playing! Withdraw the troops, let's go back to the capital! I want to tell the old man to return to his hometown, and I want to resign and go into hiding
Everyone was stunned. Watching Fang Zheng in a daze, Fang Zheng shouted in the handsome tent for a long time regardless of his throat. In the blink of an eye, seeing Xiao Lu's sad and complaining gaze, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered. Lao Tzu's mother-in-law is still in the hands of the Turks, this battle. If you don't fight, you can't do it! Fang Zheng let out a long sigh and said, "I'm sorry, I was nervous just now, you can pretend that you didn't hear it and continue the meeting." Huang Wei said just now that the Turkic national teacher Mo Jianlian still has less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands? ”
Huang Wei calmed down. "Yes." ”
Fang Zheng's eyes rolled, and then he laughed, and his smile made all the generals in the tent tingle.
Sitting up straight, Fang Zheng said with a straight face: "Everyone, it seems that we must join forces with the Turkic national division to fight the enemy, tomorrow we will lead the army out of the camp, go to Tashan, and join forces with the national teacher Mojian, but "Before joining forces, we must reach a consensus among the generals of the Hua Dynasty"
"What consensus?" Feng Qiudao asked on behalf of all the generals.
Fang Zheng said with a sly smile: "It's very simple, our soldiers of the Hua Dynasty want to play a noble style, what is there to carry the black pot and pick up cheap things, we have to rush to do it." As for dangerous things such as going into battle and fighting desperately, the national teacher please, well, everyone should remember."
Feng Qiudao and the generals frowned deeply when they heard this, and Feng Qiudao hesitated: "Marshal, since we have formed an alliance with the Turkic national division, we need both sides to fight with their lives and unite to defeat Mo Si, if we only pick up the cheap, but the national teacher will fight hard, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”
Fang Zheng looked around. Seeing that all the generals nodded one after another, they all agreed with Feng Qiudao's words.
Fang Zheng smiled. Said: "What you see is the victory or defeat of this war, but what I see is the border tranquility of the Hua Dynasty for decades or even hundreds of years. If the Turks do not have internal fighting, it is not a good thing for our Hua Dynasty, and any of you can guarantee that in the future, after Mo Jianlian or his descendants gradually become stronger, they will not violate the boundaries of our Hua Dynasty again. Slaughter thousands of my people? So,"
Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly flashed a little fierce: "The grassland, after this pacification and silent sipping, must be included in the territory of my Hua Dynasty!" Even if they can't be included, at least they have to use other methods to assimilate the Turks, so that they won't invade the border from the south for generations! For those Turkic warriors who have reached adulthood and cannot accept the assimilation of our Chinese dynasty, whether it is the Mosi department or the Mojian Lian department, "These Turks, one less one dies!" ”
The generals were shocked when they heard this.
No one expected it. This young marshal with a hippie smile actually laid out such a big chess game in his heart, this game of chess is so too much, I am afraid that even today's saints have never thought of such an unattainable and almost impossible thing,,
Turkic and Chinese dynasties. For a hundred years, he has been at the disadvantage of being strong and weak, and now as soon as this Marshal Fang opened his mouth, he said that he would incorporate the Turks into the territory of the Chinese Dynasty, and he was "crazy?" How is this possible? Like a bouncing rabbit suddenly running up to a very strong lion, crying out to knock the lion down,
This is not just arrogance, this, it's a joke!
Fang Zheng looked around with a smile and said, "Everyone, scared? ”
The crowd was speechless, and to be honest, they were indeed frightened.
Fang Zheng took everyone's expressions into his eyes and sneered: "Don't think that this matter is out of reach, the Turks have fought a civil war for nearly three years, and they are no longer the Turks in your impression, they are hungry, tired, and numb. Morale is low, and it is no longer the Turkic warriors who used to gallop freely in the territory of our Hua Dynasty, burning, killing and looting, and living dragons and tigers, whoever fights for three years, the morale will not be too high, not to mention, how many Turkic warriors have died in their three years of civil war "Everyone, this is really a godsend!" After this battle, if they didn't take advantage of their vitality to take the grassland in one fell swoop, would they still be stupid to wait for them to recuperate, and then raise tigers for trouble? ”
An adjutant general swallowed his saliva, stood up and hesitated: "But, Marshal, our Hua Dynasty and the Turkic division are still allies."
Fang Zheng seemed to be taken aback: "Allies? That's just me fooling around, Mo Jianlian took it seriously, you won't be as stupid as him, take it seriously, right? ”
The generals will know the evil...
This marshal is really as despicable and shameless as the legend says!
Feng Qiudao thought for a moment. He said in a deep voice: "Although the last general doesn't know whether it is feasible to incorporate the grassland into the territory of our Hua Dynasty, the last general is willing to give it a try with the marshal!" ”
The generals looked left and right. Finally stood up together, clasped their fists and said in unison: "The last general is willing to follow the marshal to try!" ”
To be able to take down this hundred-year catastrophe in the north in one fell swoop, and to make a rare feat of opening up the territory, and to avoid countless troubles for future generations, such a thing that benefits the country and the people and themselves, who among the generals here does not want to do it? Work hard, even if you give up this life to seek a peaceful life for future generations, it is worth dying!
Fang Zheng laughed proudly, slapped the table hard, and shouted, "Very good!" Ladies and gentlemen, the merits of the heavens are waiting for you to stand. Don't drop the chain for Lao Tzu! ”
"The generals obey the order!"
"In!"
"Tomorrow's parade. Then the whole army marched to the headquarters of the Tashan Mojian Company and joined forces with the national division
"Order!"
"Ahem, by the way, ahem. The National Teacher fled from the royal court Heisha City in a panic, and he must have rolled up a lot of gold, silver and jewelry before leaving. Since everyone is an ally, I'm going to help him with the "Damn! Lao Tzu donated three million taels of silver to the imperial court, but he has not been able to find anyone to reimburse him."
