When Chigutai and Su Hongyu arrived in Yanggu County two days later, they got the defeat report of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry. In this battle, the 20,000 Xuanjia iron cavalry pioneers led by Zhao Quanzhong were defeated by Bai Guangen's train battalion, and a total of 6,000 cavalry and 9,000 war horses were lost in the three roads that were greedy for merit.

Seeing that Zhao Quanzhong lost six or seven thousand cavalry in one battle, Chigutai was so angry that he didn't ask about three hundred and seventy-one, so he tied up Zhao Quanzhong, raised his whip and whipped it away.

Su Hongyu was also very angry, she knew that it was not easy to raise knights and war horses in Jiangnan. There were no qualified war horses in Jiangnan, and the imperial court restricted horses in Jiangnan, and these war horses were all obtained by Fang Yuan at a high price from the smuggled King Qin and King Lu; There are also no qualified knights in Jiangnan, which is also smuggled to Jiangnan by Fang Yuan through the Mongols and Han people who rode horses from the steppe trading club, and a person is at least twenty taels of silver, which is the same price as a war horse.

And Jing Jie usually raises these war horses, all of which are the same as human rations. Even gave these horses 10,000 acres of racecourse for training, which is in Suzhou Mansion, where every inch of land is valuable, if it is used for COFCO, the annual harvest is more than 50,000 stones.

Under Fang Yuan's policy tilt and Jing Jie's careful care, it took three or four years to pull 40,000 or 50,000 cavalry and nearly 100,000 war horses. Zhao Quanzhong lost more than one-tenth of this defeat, how should he explain in front of Fang Yuan and Jing Jie?!

But annoyance is annoyance, Zhao Quanzhong is always a fierce general of the Xuanjia Army, and he was whipped by Chigutai in public, what kind of system is it? ! Beat Zhao Quanzhong to a serious injury, who will charge the trap and save the defeat? You can't just drag 30,000 or 40,000 remnants of the defeated generals and go back to Fang Yuan and Jing Jie to take revenge.

Su Hongyu immediately stepped forward to stop Chigutai, and said in a deep voice, "Chi Shuai, let's interrogate the reason for the defeat first!" ”

Although Chigutai also looked down on Su Hongyu for a woman to go to the battlefield, she was Jing Jie's wife after all, and still gave her some face, threw away the horsewhip, sat back on the chair, and shouted angrily at Zhao Quanzhong, "You, you say, how did you lose?" How did the Yum Victorious Xuanjia Iron Cavalry lose?! ”

Zhao Quanzhong was beaten to the point that his skin was open and his flesh was covered in blood, but he still held his breath and told the two of them the reason for the defeat of the merit.

Su Hongyu said sharply, "Before setting out on the expedition, I have repeatedly reiterated that we must wait for the unmanned fighter team to arrive and fight together, you dare to call the shots without permission and advance lightly?!" ”

Zhao Quanzhong could tolerate being whipped by Chigutai, but he couldn't tolerate being pointed at by a woman, and sneered disdainfully, "Commander Su, I was too careless in this defeat, and I am willing to be punished by military law." However, the battlefield charge relies on real swords and guns, not strange skills. You should keep your women's stuff for flying kites in the boudoir, or posing for military parades! ”

Su Hongyu saw that he still looked down on women at this moment, and the drone team, a cold light appeared in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Zhao Quanzhong, let me tell you, this time to defeat the train battalion, you have to rely on women and drones!" ”

Zhao Quanzhong looked at her directly, "On the battlefield, women can be used to reward the army, I can't think of any other use." Commander Su, you talk to me. ”

Su Hongyu was humiliated by him in public, and her delicate body trembled with anger, "Zhao Quanzhong, you ......"

Chigutai and Zhao Quanzhong had the same idea in their hearts, and they originally asked Fang Yuan not to take Su Hongyu and the drone team. But Fang Yuan strictly ordered that the drone team must participate in this battle, and Chigutai was forced to bring Su Hongyu and a drone team of five hundred people out of desperation.

Right now, Su Hongyu had a dispute with Zhao Quanzhong again, Chigutai, as the deputy commander of the Xuanjia Army, how could he be embarrassed by the commander's wife, so he could only point at Zhao Quanzhong with a horsewhip and scolded, "Zhao Quanzhong, do you know that Commander Su is the wife of the commander, you dare to contradict it, shut up for me immediately!" ”

Although he kept scolding Zhao Quanzhong, he was actually protecting, implying that Zhao Quanzhong and Su Hongyu were the boss's wife and couldn't afford to offend.

Zhao Quanzhong snorted unruly and coldly, turned his face sideways, and stopped talking nonsense with Su Hongyu.

Chigutai drank a large bowl of Mongolian mare's milk wine, and said to Su Hongyu, "Commander Su, since you have come with the regent's military order, say it!" How does the regent want to fight this battle?! ”

Su Hongyu took a few deep breaths, took a breath, sat back in her chair, and brought the topic back on track, "Chi Shuai, the train battalion is specially built to restrain cavalry, rush and fight, even if you win, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses." In this battle, the idea of the regent and the commander was to use the drone team to attack the attack first, and when the enemy army was dispersed, the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry would give full play to the advantage of mobility and pursue the tail. ”

Drone team attack?!

Chigutai was secretly amused when he heard it, he was originally an upright man on the grassland, although he had learned a little more over the years, he couldn't hide his thoughts on his face, and couldn't help but show a disdainful smile, "Commander Su, the previous drone team only sent a leaflet, but now it can attack the fortifications?" What kind of trick, let's listen to it?! ”

Su Hongyu also saw Chigutai's disdain, even if it was an inquiry, in fact, she was going through the motions, not wanting to listen to her advice at all, but for the sake of her being the boss's wife.

Su Hongyu suppressed her anger and said slowly, "Chi Shuai, the flight altitude of the drone team is within the range of the new Ming army's firearms, if it is attacked by daylight, I am afraid that it will be shot down by the Ming army." I suggest finding a moonless night, sneaking up on the train camp camp and winning the battle. ”

A sneak attack at night is a good defense and an unfavorable attack, and if there is no moonlight at night, you can't see anything, how can you sneak attack?! The combat method proposed by Su Hongyu was completely different from the common sense of war before, and Zhao Quanzhong snorted coldly, full of irony.

Chigutai was also a little stunned, he and Zhao Quanzhong were both generals in the army, and they knew the taboo in the army that Su Hongyu's plan committed, in his opinion, Su Hongyu, a woman, was so smiling and generous, and said with a smile, "Commander Su, let me tell you, the battle, it's not you who fight." Even if you sneak attack at night, you must wait for the moonlit night, otherwise you can't see anything, and the cavalry will inevitably have to light torches to move forward. When tens of thousands of torches are lit, you can see clearly from twenty miles away, what kind of sneak attack is it?! ”

Su Hongyu said coldly, "Chi Shuai, this is the tactics of my drone team, your Xuanjia Iron Horse can cooperate with me!" ”

Chigutai took a sip of wine and said coldly, "Okay, I'll cooperate, I'll send a thousand iron cavalry to Commander Su to suppress the formation." ”

Chigutai sent a thousand iron cavalry to support, but he was responding to the story in vain, and he didn't approve of Su Hongyu's battle plan at all.

Su Hongyu said in a deep voice, "How can a thousand iron horsemen expand the results of the battle?!" At least 10,000 iron riders! ”

How could Chigutai send 10,000 iron horsemen to accompany Su Hongyu to play and toss, shook his head, and said solemnly, "Commander Su, it won't work!" ”

Seeing that Chigutai refused to cooperate, Su Hongyu took out a piece of military order from his arms, put it in front of him, and said coldly, "This is a military order written by the commander, and I also ask Chi Shuai to cooperate with my tactics in this battle." If I don't win this battle, the boss is willing to vouch for me and share the same guilt with me! ”

Chigutai spread out the letter she handed over, it was indeed written by Jing Jie, and Jing Jie stated in the letter that the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry must cooperate with all of Su Hongyu's tactics, otherwise it will be punished for violating military orders. At the end of the letter, it was emphasized that Jing Jie was willing to give Su Hongyu as a guarantee, and if he was defeated, he and Su Hongyu would be guilty of the same crime and bear the military justice together.

Since Jing Jie is willing to use the position of coach to guarantee Su Hongyu, what else does Chigutai have to say? He could only hesitate to put the letter, looked at Su Hongyu and said, "This, this, good, 10,000 iron horses are 10,000 iron horses." ”

Su Hongyu glanced at Zhao Quanzhong, who was tied up, and said, "I also want Commander Zhao to personally lead the army to go with me, and I want him to see with his own eyes how the woman and the drone team win!" ”

Zhao Quanzhong absolutely didn't believe that Su Hongyu's kite-like things could break the train camp, and looked at her coldly and said, "Okay, if you can really win the battle, I will lose my life to you!" If you lose, women won't be able to enter the barracks again! ”

Su Hongyu stared at him for a while, then nodded unhurriedly, "Okay, I'll bet with you!" Three days later, he set out to Liaocheng to meet the train battalion! ”
