39 The soldiers are before the enemy

The soldiers are bearish, and they will be in a nest, Cao Bianjiao understands this truth, this Baoding soldier and Sichuan soldier, that is really a heaven and an underground, although the Baoding soldier is a remnant of the defeated army, but he is still in good spirits, the kind of murderous spirit revealed in each eye, it can be seen that this army is not simple, but the Sichuan soldiers, one by one, listless, are completely a group of old soldiers' attitude, this is also the gap between Yang Wenyue and Kong Zhenyun, Yang Wenyue is a general's talent, and he has been fighting in the south and north for more than ten years. That talent is not comparable to ordinary literati, but Kong Zhenyun, although he has the name of virtue, is not the material for leading soldiers, maybe it is more suitable to govern the people!

Thinking of the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in later generations, the Sichuan soldiers dedicated their spirit to defending the country, that is the lord who threw his head and spilled his blood and did not even frown, Cao Bianjiao can only blame their leaders for failing, if it is in their own hands, then it will not be so.

The confluence of Rushui and Honghe, thirty miles east of Xiping County, is Hao Shaoqi, Ma Shouying their camp, before dusk, they have all crossed the river, located on the high place of the river beach and set up camp, ready to break through Xiping early tomorrow morning, and then go south along Rushui, directly take Ruyang City, the capital of Runing, take Runing, if you take Runing, the whole Henan will be included in their bag, after the victory of Kaifeng, everyone's enthusiasm for fighting is very high, they defeated tens of thousands of defenders in Henan, and also defeated hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses rescued, A small Runing Mansion, there is no danger to defend, for them, it is not a difficult thing.

"Several kings, this will be ordered to collect Runing Mansion, this time several kings have come to help, it is really my Hao Yongzhong's honor, come, I salute you!"

Hao Yongzhong raised a bowl of wine and toasted to Ma Shouying and Liu Xiyao, Hao Yongzhong was the standard-bearer in the army at first, so he was also known as "Hao Shaoqi". This person is loyal to Li Zicheng, when Li Zicheng was defeated by Sun Chuanting in Tongguan Nanyuan, Hao Yongzhong in order to protect Li Zicheng from the predicament, even his wife and children were killed, so as not to be dragged down, Li Zicheng is also extremely trusting of him, every war, he is the vanguard general.

"Where! Where! Now we are all subordinates of King Chuang, working together to kill the enemy, this is a matter of responsibility, not each other! Ma Shouying also hurriedly said, after all, they are outsiders, no more than Hao Shaoqi's status in Li Zicheng's heart, and they went to take refuge after defeat, and they are not Li Zicheng's henchmen, and they will need Hao Shaoqi's help to gain a foothold in the future, so they are also very polite to Hao Shaoqi.

"Don't say anything else, it's all in the wine,!"

"Dry ......"

At this moment, Cao Bianjiao led the army to arrive at the Guandi Temple fifteen miles north of Shangcai, and it was only more than 20 miles away from Hao Shaoqi's station, Cao Bianjiao took the initiative to come to meet the battle, just to give them a dismount, but also to give the court an explanation, he did not send troops for so many days, not to support the army and self-respect, but that the time was not ripe, and now the time is ripe, he will win a battle, then there will be no problem.

"Cao Shuai, let's set up camp here, the soldiers have also worked hard, it's time to rest after a day's journey!" Yang Wenyue wiped the sweat on his face, they started from the hour to the time of the hour, and now the time is approaching, except for the middle hour to rest and bury the pot to cook, he has been on the road, and he is also a little tired.

Cao Bianjiao waved his hand to stop Yang Wenyue's words, and said with a solemn face: "No need, tonight we led the army to raid the enemy, right now they are in front of us, the two armies are only twenty or thirty miles apart, we just arrived, they don't know yet, this time is the most unprepared time for them, they are close to Xiping County and set up camp, it seems that they are preparing to attack Xiping tomorrow, we suddenly launched an attack, just to catch them off guard." ”

"But the soldiers have worked hard, do you have the strength to fight again?"

"Whether we can fight or not is not ours, but the soldiers, pass the order, everyone rest on the spot for a stick of incense, eat some dry food, and attack immediately, and when this battle is over, I will reward them, there is wine to drink, meat to eat, if you can't win this battle, you will do all military law under me!"

"Yes!" Yang Wenyue didn't argue about anything anymore, Cao Bianjiao was ruthless, that was already a well-known thing, Anqing Mutiny, he killed thousands of people in one go, Ming Zhengcanon, they didn't know these things.

The generals and deputy generals came to the ruined hall of the Guandi Temple, and Cao Bianjiao was also gnawing on a piece of bread, and after everyone came, he also swallowed it three times and divided five by two, drank a few sips of water, and began to discuss.

"Now that we have arrived here, what does this commander mean is that while the enemy army does not know that we are coming, he is not prepared, and launches a surprise attack to catch them by surprise, I don't know which general is willing to lead his troops as the vanguard, storm the enemy's camp and army formation, and open a gap for the army to attack?"

Cao Bianjiao glanced at everyone, and saw the changes in their faces, this is the time to distinguish the ability, those who are afraid will hide back, or lower their heads, only those who have the ability dare to stand up, such people can be used.

"The last will go!"

Cao Bianjiao turned his head and looked at the past, it was Kang Shide, the capital of Runing Mansion, and he was very satisfied at the moment, after all, there were still people who stood up, and he really didn't want his people to fight this vanguard, leading the troops to break through, naturally the cavalry was the best, Cao Bianjiao's cavalry was precious, he was reluctant, those were all veterans he brought out from Yutian!

"Kang Dusi really deserves to be from a family of military generals, okay, then you will be the vanguard, you will lead the five hundred cavalry of the headquarters to detour to the east side of the enemy army, and go straight to the enemy camp, I will let Zu Dale lead the army to meet you in the rear and provide you with your backing!"

"Yes!" Kang Shide also gave up his hand and readily agreed.

Cao Bianjiao immediately looked at Yang Wenyue again and said, "Governor Yang, you lead the Baoding army and horses of your headquarters to attack from west to east, and the two of you will attack before and after, and the time between them shall not exceed the time of one stick of incense. ”

"Yes!" Yang Wenyue also received the order solemnly.

"After taking you to attack, the commander will temporarily hold the troops, your purpose is to attract the attention of the enemy, so that they think that we are flanking them, when the enemy will focus on the two of you, the commander will lead the main force to attack from the south, strictly order the three armies, not to covet any of the enemy's materials, all bravely kill the enemy, some people because of the greed for the enemy's abandoned money, food, ordnance and baggage and refuse to fight, there is no forgiveness!"

Cao Bianjiao also gave the final order again, the official army and the homeless people fought, nine times out of ten times lost, because what, that is because the homeless people know too much about the virtues of the officials and soldiers, every time they can't fight, then they will lose the valuable things on their bodies, and then lead the officials and soldiers to stop and fight, and finally the homeless people take advantage of their disarray to turn back and kill, resulting in defeat, Cao Bianjiao believes in his soldiers and horses, but does not believe in their soldiers and horses, so this military order must be issued.

"Now you go back and count the military horses, set off immediately, and after the victory, I invite you to eat meat and drink!"
