?? Wu Zhi's wartime new policy had an immediate effect, and the originally turbulent Jiangning area has gradually stabilized. щ.. lā

In fact, the Chinese people are the easiest to be satisfied, as long as they have food to eat and a way to live, no one will rebel against the imperial court.

Wu Zhi's side of the stability is progressing smoothly, Tong Guan's army has not been idle recently, after arriving in Jiangning, the first time to clear the wall, the rebel army completely suppressed the rebel army in the pass fortress south of Jiangning Mansion, and the army is approaching the city, ready to attack at any time.

The reason why there was no rush to attack was because the imperial army did not have first-hand information about the situation of the army in the south of the Yangtze River, and now after these days of exploration, the army has a good understanding of the situation of the army in the south of the Yangtze River.

Inside the tent, next to the huge military sand table stood the generals led by Tong Guan, who were discussing the battle plan. Wu Zhi, as the Yin of Jiangning Mansion and the first civil minister in Jiangnan, is naturally among them, and his position is second only to Tong Guan.

"Now that the Fang La thief army has retreated to Suyang Pass and Jurong Pass, if our imperial army wants to wave its army south to smash the Fang La army's lair, it must break these two passes!" Tong Guan pointed to the second level on the sand table, full of pride.

Fang La's army had already occupied the state capitals around Suzhou and Hangzhou, and used Hangzhou as its old nest. Suyang Pass and Jurong Pass are the transportation fortresses of Jiangning Mansion to the south of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and their military status is important.

An old man who looked like a military advisor said: "Suyang Pass and Jurong Pass are dangerous terrain, and they are both easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are nearly 70,000 anti-thief troops stationed in each other, whether it is to break through one by one or divide the troops to attack together, I am afraid it will take some time! ”

This old military division is Ma Ying, the military division of the Western Army, who has a high status in the Western Army, and is also the chief military division of the imperial army.

"Judging from the Ma Division, if our army divides 50,000 troops to attack, how many days will we be able to break through these two passes at the earliest?" Tong Guan humbly asked.

Ma Ying casually looked at Wu Song and other generals on the side, shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm afraid it will take ten days at the earliest." ”

"How's that going to work?"

As soon as he heard that it would take ten days, Tong Guan immediately frowned: "Fang La's anti-thief army is just some rabble, if my imperial army does not move, it is bound to go straight to the nest of the anti-thief Hangzhou!" If it takes ten days to attack these two passes, wouldn't it damage the majesty of the imperial court and the morale of the heavenly army? ”

"Tong Shuai, just let the subordinate general lead the army of 50,000 species, and he will definitely win a level for Tong Shuai within five days!" The Seed Master Dao immediately stepped forward to ask for the order.

Tong Guan and the generals heard that as soon as General Chong opened his mouth, the time was compressed to five days, and a burst of admiration not only rose in their hearts.

Tong Guan was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Haha, good! The general is worthy of being a loyal family! I don't know which pass the general plans to attack? ”

"Suyang Pass is far away from Jiangning, and the terrain is more treacherous, so leave it to the subordinate general's seed army!" The way of the seed master is the right color road.

Wu Zhi on the side couldn't help but secretly admire after hearing this: "The old general is kind! "Indeed, as General Chong said, Suyang Pass is more difficult to fight than Jurong, and after the Western Army took the initiative to choose Suyang Pass, then Jurong Pass naturally had to be fought by the Qingzhou Army.

Wu Song, Lu Zhishen and the others over there were also slightly moved, but they didn't say much, and silently noted down the kindness of the old general, which would be tantamount to looking down on the general and the entire army if they jumped out and grabbed the bones that were difficult to gnaw with the general, which was a big taboo in the army.

"General Wu Song, I'm afraid that this Rongguan will ask your Qingzhou army to fight, I don't know how many soldiers and horses you have to bring and how many days it will take?" Military advisor Ma Ying asked Wu Song in a somewhat strange tone.

Although the generals are above board, the military division Ma Ying and other generals of the Western Army still look down on the Qingzhou "Boy Scouts" who have only gone through a big war, and it is normal to have some prejudice in the most powerful army.

Wu Song is also a person with a generous and simple heart, and he didn't care about the bad behavior of the Ma military division, but replied with a straight face: "The general is willing to lead the 50,000 Qingzhou army to break through Jurong Pass in five days!" ”

Wu Song knew the strength of the Qingzhou Army best, and there was absolutely no problem in laying down the Jurong Pass on the fifth day. And his tone of voice is very humble, and he has no intention of competing with the Western Army, the Seed Army also led 50,000 troops to fight Suyang, which is a little more difficult to fight, in general, Wu Song's Qingzhou Army will not refute the face of the Western Army even if it takes five days.

"Your Qingzhou army also wants to use 50,000 people to defeat Jurong with 70,000 defenders in five days, this is a bit too much, right?"

Although Wu Zhi had paid attention to keeping a low profile, his words still attracted the ridicule of many generals of the Western Army.

"General Wu, with all due respect, your Qingzhou Army has only fought a campaign to quell the rebellion, don't look too high at the top, you think that it can be similar to our Western Army. Which general and soldier of our Western Army is not experienced in a hundred battles? It's not like you Qingzhou baby army can compare. ”

"You ......"

Lu Zhishen, who was behind him, couldn't help but get up and argue, but was stopped by Lin Chong beside him.

Ma Junshi also twisted his beard, squinted at Wu Song and said, "General Wu, I know that you are strong in martial arts, and the generals of your Qingzhou Army are also heroes. But......" he smiled contemptuously, and continued, "But what if you can fight again?" Can you break through with a big sword? Fighting mainly depends on soldiers, and the best soldiers must go through countless wars to cultivate, your Qingzhou baby soldiers want to win Jurong Pass in five days, it is really beyond their strength! I advise General Wu to leave himself more room for maneuver, and it will not be embarrassing to miss the military plane when the time comes! ”

After Ma Junshi finished speaking, Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhilin blushed at them, and Wu Song was also slightly moved, but they knew that it was useless to refute, so they could only secretly hold back their strength. The generals of the Western Army were all big and coarse, and when they saw the embarrassment of Wu Song and the others, they laughed wantonly.

"Silence!" ‘

Tong Guan glared at the generals of the Western Army, and then glanced at Wu Zhi next to him with a wry smile, Wu Zhi didn't intervene, but was very calm.

Tong Guan patted Wu Song on the shoulder and said with relief: "Wu Song, you are so enterprising, I am very pleased, but the words of Ma Junshi and the generals just now are not rude, you should know that attacking the city is not a field battle." The art of war is cloudy: the besieger is surrounded by ten, and the five can be attacked.

Therefore, if you attack the city, you must have five times the number of enemy troops, although Jurong is only a pass, but it has the advantage of the defenders, you attack 70,000 with 50,000, five days is too reluctant. Your Qingzhou army is not as experienced in attacking cities as the Western Army. ”

Indeed, the Qingzhou Army was in Pingliao, Hebei Province at the beginning, and basically led the enemy army to fight in the field, and did not really fight siege warfare.

Tong Guan continued to say to Wu Song: "You can re-say the time!" ”

Wu Song looked back slightly at Lu Zhishen, who was full of unconvinced eyes, and Zhu Wu, who had no sense of existence around the corner, and then said in a deep voice to Tong Guan: "The eldest husband has said everything, there is no need to change it, five days is enough!" ”

Tong Guan was stunned, and the generals of the Western Army, including Seed Master Dao and Ma Ying, all looked at Wu Song with a resolute face with a look of surprise.

"If Tong Shuai and the generals don't believe in Wu Song, Wu Song can make a military order!"

"I'm willing to make a military order together!"

If a military order is made, it means that once something goes wrong, no matter the reason, it is a dead end when you come back, and you don't need to ask the court for instructions. With such a dangerous event, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, Lin Chong and other Wu Song's subordinate generals naturally couldn't let Wu Song resist alone.

When you come out to mix, you must be righteous.
