Chapter 041: The Great War is Coming 2

Since Yuan Lang is the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, he will naturally start to speak at this meeting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"How many snowboards are ready?"

Yuan Lang first asked Bai Bo's subordinates, although Bai Bo did not come this time, but Yuan Lang's identity was above Bai Bo, and his subordinates were also directly controlled by Yuan Lang.

Bai Bo's subordinates were ordered by Yuan Lang to prepare snowboards this time, and now their representatives at the meeting immediately stood up and replied when they saw the commander's question: "Back to Huang Shuai, because of the limited materials, only more than two hundred pairs have been prepared!" ”

"More than two hundred? It's too little, you guys go out of camp immediately to find more materials! There was a pine forest north of here when we came, and you can go there and cut some timber and come back! ”

Yuan Lang not only put forward the shortcomings, but also gave the plan, so that it would be much easier for the people below to implement it.

"Yes, Huang Shuai, rest assured, we will not fail in our mission!"

After speaking, Bai Bo's subordinates immediately left the military tent, and the reason why they were so anxious was because they had also heard that Niu Fu's army was only half a day's journey from here at the earliest.

"Bai Shuai, how is the camp fortified?"

"Back to Huang Shuai, according to your idea, we have reinforced the surrounding camps with ice and snow, and inserted horse blocking posts on the ice wall to ensure that their cavalry cannot rush in or jump up!"

Yuan Lang and Zhang Baiqi asked and answered, and the person who asked asked asked very clearly, and the person who answered replied that everyone was very satisfied.

"Very good, Bai Shuai has worked hard! In addition, after a while, I also asked Bai Shuai to lead a group of coachmen to the pine forest to respond, pine wood is a good thing, in addition to making snowboards, it can also be used to make fires for heating, bury pots to cook, as much as possible to come back! ”

"Yes, I'll get ready in the next moment!"

After Yuan Lang finished asking Zhang Baiqi, he asked Zhang Yan again: "Hei Shuai, how many archers did our archers bring this time?" ”

Zhang Yan was very familiar with this army, and only listened to him say like a few treasures: "There are about 200 people, all of them are good hands!" ”

Yuan Lang then asked Pan Fengdao: "General Pan is more familiar with the Jizhou Army, dare to ask how many archers the Jizhou Army has brought?" ”

Pan Feng didn't think about it, and replied: "My vanguard army is mainly cavalry, and there are no archers!" The Chinese army is dominated by guns and halberds, and archers are estimated to be less than two hundred! ”

After listening to this, Yuan Lang thought about it, and then asked Cao Hongdao: "If your guess is correct, the eighteen entourages brought by General Cao this time are all archers, and I don't know what they can do!" ”

"Duke Yuan is polite, my uncle and nephew came here on the orders of my lord, and now that the Jizhou army is trapped, we should serve! Not to mention the eighteen entourage, it is my uncle and nephew, if the public has something to send, it is incumbent on them! ”

When Yuan Lang heard this, his heart suddenly warmed, and he only listened to his instructions: "In this way, our archers are about 400 people, I want to ask General Cao to be the commander of the archers, I don't know what the general wants?" ”

"In the next panic, but at this critical time of survival, I will not shirk it, please rest assured, I dare not say anything else, only about the skill of the bow and horse, my uncle and nephew are not afraid of anyone!"

Hearing that Cao Hong took on the heavy responsibility, Yuan Lang also had a backbone in his heart, it was not enough to defend against Niu Fu in this battle, if he wanted to repel or even annihilate, the archery troops would be the irreplaceable main force.

"Pan asks for his life, and he also asks General Yuan to order me to be the vanguard, I am willing to take the lead!"

"And me, don't I have no men in the Yellow Turban Army? Take the lead, count me Zhang Yan! ”

Regarding the wishes of these two fierce generals to fight, Yuan Lang did not pour a basin of cold water to the end, but told them that the time had not yet come, and if the time came, they would inevitably go into battle to kill the enemy.

Next, Yuan Lang focused on the defensive strategy and the offensive plan.

In terms of defense, just like what Yuan Lang arranged, one is bluffing, and the second is strengthening the camp, it is obvious that Zhang Baiqi has completed these two points for everyone earlier, and the efficiency of the completion is high, and the effect is so good, which is admirable.

Then Yuan Lang focused on the plan of the attack, that is, the specific strategy of using archers to fight guerrillas on snowboards.

The essence of guerrilla warfare is that the enemy is stationed and disturbed, the enemy is tired and we fight, the enemy advances and we retreat, and the enemy retreats and we pursue. Guerrilla warfare is an operational mode that follows the five basic principles of rational selection of combat locations, rapid deployment of troops, rational distribution of troops, rational selection of combat timing, and rapid retreat at the end of the battle. ”

It is unheard of for archers to step on snowboards, and for the guerrilla warfare proposed by Yuan Lang, everyone respects him as a celestial.

"General Yuan is really a military wizard!"

Liu Zihui did not hesitate to praise him, and his words also represented the high evaluation of Yuan Lang by the participants.

"Ahem!"

Zhang Baiqi coughed and glanced at Yuan Lang, and Yuan Lang, who was still in pride, suddenly woke up, oh no, he was quick to speak for a while, and he actually forgot Zhang Baiqi's suggestion to remind himself to hide his edge, and the rest of the people here are easy to say, but the uncle and nephew of the Cao family may become a strong rival on their own development path in the future, and now let them know their ability is not a thing worth showing off, but it may bring unnecessary disasters to themselves.

"Mr. Liu praised it falsely, where do I have such skills, these are the strategies I negotiated privately with Bai Shuai and Hei Shuai, as the so-called one person counts short, three people count long, haha!"

Although Yuan Lang tried his best to make up for other people's opinions of him, but from the eyes of the Cao family's uncle and nephew, Yuan Lang still saw that trace of profundity, obviously, he Yuan Lang has been concerned by the Cao family, and it may also reach Cao Cao's ears, of course, these are all reverie.

But no matter what, now the three of them are all in the same boat, and no one can do without anyone, and they now have a common enemy, that is, Niu Fu, who is leading 30,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

Everyone also consulted Yuan Lang about their duties, namely, the uncle and nephew of the Cao family commanded the archer troops and carried out guerrilla harassment; Pan Feng and Zhang Yan led the men and horses of the headquarters to stick to the camp, and unless they got the military order to attack, they would not move; Zhang Baiqi and Liu Zihui are responsible for arranging suspicious soldiers, in charge of material deployment and logistics support; Yuan Lang was in charge of the Chinese army, and he demanded that a watchtower be erected in the middle of the camp, and he commanded the whole situation from a high position, and his military tent was used as a temporary command post, and all officials had to be on call.

At this end of the meeting, everyone received their own tasks and went down separately to prepare.

The crowded military tent was deserted all of a sudden, and Yuan Lang was tired for most of the day, and he didn't want to let go of this rare opportunity.

When Yuan Lang woke up again, he was woken up by Zhang Yan, Yuan Lang saw that Zhang Yan was calling so urgently, it was estimated that he had some new news to share with him.

"But has anyone come back from the scouts that were sent out?"

This is the only reason that Yuan Lang can think of that can make Zhang Yan so angry.

"You guessed it again, that's right, a scout just came back to tell us that Niu Fu's army will arrive here in a moment of incense, and they haven't looted any grain and grass along the way, it seems that they are pinning their last hope on us! Although your strong wall and clear the wilderness have played a role, but the enemy will be even more ferocious because of the lack of food! ”

Yuan Lang knew what Zhang Yan was worried about, he was afraid that Niu Fu would come to a ruin and rush to fight with him, but he had already set a strategy to stick to, Niu Fu wanted to fight quickly, I was afraid that he would not be able to do it.

"Bai Shuai went out to deliver materials and came back?"

Yuan Lang had just woken up, and he didn't know anything about what happened during this time, so he came to ask Zhang Yan.

"Just came back, too!" Zhang Yan continued: "They brought back a lot of pine wood, and now not only the skis of the archers will not worry, but even the watchtower you asked to build!" ”

To be honest, Yuan Lang has always appreciated Zhang Baiqi's efficiency, even if it is such a dangerous situation now, he Zhang Baiqi can still sit still.

"Hei Shuai, you pass on my order, let everyone perform their duties, stand up to their posts, and don't act privately without my orders!" Yuan Lang then ordered: "In addition, the suspicious soldiers must be arranged in place, you go and discuss the details of all aspects with Bai Shuai, he has his own way!" ”

Zhang Yan received the military order, Yuan Lang didn't have the heart to sleep, he hurriedly put on the mink fur newly sent by Han Fu and went straight out of the military tent, there were still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with outside.

Yuan Lang first verified the number of snowboards made by the Xia Baibo Army again, this time they were rich in materials, and in a short period of time, the stock of snowboards had reached 500 pairs.

Immediately afterward, Yuan Lang delivered the snowboards to Cao Hong, the commander of the archers, and asked him to hurry up and train on the boards.

Then, Yuan Lang rode a horse to inspect the reinforcement of the camp, very ideal, Zhang Baiqi is so reassuring, in addition to the camp reinforced with ice and snow mixed with river water, the density of the horse blocking piles inserted around the four sides can also be, and the spikes facing the outside have also been cut, quite sharp, in addition to all the military tents in the camp have also been set up, if the Niu auxiliary army of unknown circumstances only evaluates the strength of the Jizhou army from the number of military tents, they will think that there are as many as 20,000, not the real less than 10,000.

and the pots and stoves requested by Yuan Lang were also opened, just as dinner was approaching, these temporary pots and stoves were just right, and everyone seemed to be able to eat a full meal before the war quickly.

In this way, everything is ready, and all that is left is when the Niu Fu army will arrive.
