Chapter 726 Contemplation
Sun Chengzong and Xiong Tingbi in terms of strategic vision and not to talk about it, in terms of tactics and specific command of the generals, it is really not reasonable for Lao Sun Tou to be worse than Lao Xiong Tou, the difference is too far. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
During the few years that Sun Chengzong stayed in Liaodong, he mostly stayed in the rear and rarely visited the former enemy in person.
When he felt that the threat was great, Sun Chengzong did not even make specific tactical commands at all.
When attacked, Sun Chengzong's first reaction was to resign......
Generally speaking, Lao Sun Tou is more like a qualified manager and logistics supply officer than a military commander who can command a war.
It's a pity that in terms of his role, repairing cities and forts and training troops are only secondary, and commanding the war is his most important duty. It's a pity that in this regard, Lao Sun Tou can only be a good fighter without great achievements.
Today, not being afraid of hardship and possible danger is also a rare thing for Sun Chengzong.
"Maybe it's really stimulated by the people of Heyusheng, and it's rare for the cabinet lord to have such a strong side." Yuan Chonghuan couldn't help but think like this, at this moment, there must be many people who have the same idea as him.
The cavalry of the brigade continued to move forward, and for the sake of safety, Man Gui led several hundred soldiers to speed forward, and at the same time increased and strengthened the fan of the reconnaissance of the sentinel cavalry.
In the evening, under a cloud of fire, people watched as He Yusheng's combat sappers repaired the second small bridge.
An unknown river gurgled through, the river was only waist-high, and the deepest part would not be headless, but for the army and a large number of convoys, the broken bridge was enough to affect the movement, a group of gray-robed soldiers stood in the water and the bridge body was reinforcing the wooden bridge, and replacing the broken bridge slabs, and then replacing them with new wooden boards, this wooden bridge could have passed through two-wheeled carts in parallel, at this time, after reinforcement and repair, it could accommodate a four-wheeled cart to pass easily, and parallel could not be done.
Sun Chengzong rode on his horse and watched, his face was first surprised, then a little embarrassed, and then fell into a state of obvious contemplation.
Looking down, it was obvious that there was a group of gray-robed soldiers who had built a pontoon bridge downstream, and Man Gui sent someone to inquire about it, and the answer was that only one bridge within ten miles was too unsafe, not only a pontoon bridge was built downstream, but also upstream.
That is to say, if there is an emergency, He Yusheng's convoy can run with its feet outstretched, and there is no need to worry about no bridge when it reaches the river, and at the same time, there is no need to worry about being caught up by the enemy and having nowhere to hide.
You don't have to worry about running out of supplies and repair points, and there are places to rest and eat hot food.
"Hey......" A Liaozhen general shook his head and said loudly: "Before the war, I don't think about how to win, but think about how to run." I don't think about how to fight a good battle, but I think about how to hide, how to eat and sleep well, what kind of fucking army is this, no wonder it can only be regarded as a team exercise. ”
He Yusheng's training and orderliness, as well as the orderliness of doing things, fast and efficient are all seen by everyone, of course, the biggest feeling is only four words: wealth.
Those gorgeous and practical carriages, a large number of horses and war horses, a firearm and waist knife in each hand, those delicate little ornaments, beautiful and expensive robes, hats and leather boots, and Yusheng's people are piles of living silver that can breathe, everyone can see that this army is called Tuanlian but is actually the army's auxiliary team, and all the generals in Liaozhen, including Sun Chengzong, are all unable to play and cannot afford to raise.
Maybe the general's words were slightly sour, but they also aroused the approval of many people, and there was a buzz for a while.
Sun Chengzong didn't speak, he had already faintly felt that his previous judgment must be wrong.
Zhang Han was not only able to send a large number of carriages over, but there must be quite a few of them, at least more than a thousand.
Everything in front of him has shown He Yusheng's financial resources and pragmatic style of doing things, with such a group of subordinates, Zhang Han is definitely not the kind of Caidong and martial artist who likes to brag irresponsibly.
The cabinet supervisor did not make a sound, and waited for the people of Yusheng to get out of the way, Sun Chengzong crossed the bridge surrounded by everyone, the newly repaired bridge deck has a variety of patches of different colors of the same wooden blocks, nailed very well and firmly, all the cavalry is relieved to ride on it, people's faces are a little weird, just now everyone is still talking about Yusheng's strange words, but now they are enjoying the fruits of Yusheng's labor, which forms a strong contrast, so that those who are still full of strange words just now have their mouths tightly closed.
Before dark, some of the sentinels of the front team returned to report that they were safe and sound, and no sentinels were found within a radius of nearly 100 miles.
This is completely different from a few months ago, when the siege of the Thirteen Mountains was relatively strong, and the sentinel cavalry sometimes even went deep into the Ningyuan Acropolis not far away, and after the repair of the military forts, there were also Jianyu cavalry interspersed among them, and they saw the psychology of the Ming army not daring and unwilling to fight in the field, and they were almost rampant.
After the battle of Guangning, Ningyuan to Shanhaiguan almost no veterans who had fought in the war, only a few generals such as Zu Dashou had an intact family team, the strength was too weak, not to mention the initiative to attack, even the guard pass was also the possibility of being attacked by force, fortunately, the most dangerous time has passed, now the main force of Jianyu went to the grassland to fight the Mongols, and only a few elites remained, most of them were Qiding and Han army, which made the principals under the thirteen mountains can only take the initiative to shrink the defense, from today's sentry cavalry scattered reconnaissance situation, Exactly the same as the previous judgment, the encirclement of Jianyu in the Thirteen Mountains has been seriously weakened.
Sun Chengzong was of course very satisfied with such a result, and everyone was also relieved, no matter what, the risk taken today was really not small.
Thinking of this, it is inevitable that some people are dissatisfied with He Yusheng's outstanding performance, if it weren't for He Yusheng's people who stirred up the emotions of the Inspector here, why would they follow the old grandson to take such a risk?
"It's another wooden city, it seems to be bigger."
"It's really an upstart style."
"It seems that most of the horses, carts and men are here."
Zu Dashou sent someone to inform, and after half an hour, everyone found that the gate was open, and more than 100 people stood on both sides of the gate with firearms, and then there was a burst of gunfire sounds.
When the gunners fired their guns at the sky, many horses were frightened, which caused Sun Chengzong's great dissatisfaction.
This shows that generals rarely add firearms to the exercise, or have not trained at all, and the war horse must be frightened when it hears the sound of guns and cannons on the battlefield, but the degree of fright can be used to make the war horse slowly adapt to it, not like now.
After feeling Sun Chengzong's stern eyes, the faces of the generals present were very uncomfortable.
Jianlu only used bows and arrows, no guns and cannons, but the Ming army must have used them, the war horse training was not good, and a cannon was fired during the war, and Jianlu did not die a few, but his own horse team was shocked, that was a big joke.
"After going back, the generals will strengthen the training of war horses." Sun Chengzong didn't get angry, in front of He Yusheng, the old Sun Tou suddenly became very fond of his subordinates, and didn't want outsiders to see the joke.
"The last general will knock on the cabinet-sama."
In front of the famous Sun Chengzong, Zhang Chunniu was still a little nervous. He knelt down on one knee and gave a very solemn military salute.
However, in the eyes of Sun Chengzong's attachés and generals, this regimental training officer with the military officer of the guard station was really a little arrogant and arrogant.
Sun Chengzong didn't mind, only glanced at Zhang Chunniu lightly, and then rode straight into Mucheng.
The generals saw Sun Chengzong galloping in, and they were all busy following up.
After entering the wooden city, Sun Chengzong summoned a soldier with a firearm and took the firearm in the opponent's hand.
Whether it is the body tube, the trigger, the faucet, and the workmanship, Sun Chengzong can't find a little mistake.
In the hand, the fire gun weighs about seven catties, and from the point of view of the quality of iron, it is at least several times more high-quality fine iron to make the gun. In addition, there are many copper parts on the body, including the trigger faucet and circlip, which are made of copper.
"That's good."
Sun Chengzong didn't ask the minting price, and he knew that the price was expensive at a glance. Although he built several firearms battalions in Liaozhen, each battalion had thousands of firearms of different sizes, and the firearms of the Ming army were very mixed, and there were all kinds of guns, including what kind of magic arrows, there were as many as five or six kinds of artillery.
It is too miscellaneous, including firecrackers, there are shotguns, lifting guns, Lumi guns, combined machine guns, three-eyed guns, etc., different sizes, different charges, and it is very troublesome to train.
Every time Sun Chengzong went to inspect the firearms camp, he led the school council to set off firearms, and the ping-pong was also lively.
At this time, he saw that the gun mouth was still a little clever, and he couldn't help but look at the gun hand inquiringly.
"Cabinet lord, here is the bayonet on the casing." The hand who was called over by Sun Chengzong didn't have a nervous expression, and he pulled out a sharp knife with a strange shape from his waist.
"Bold!" The guards around Sun Chengzong showed nervousness, and stepped forward to hold down the hand.
"Don't be nervous." Sun Chengzong stopped his guards and said with a smile: "He just doesn't understand the rules, and that's what I want to see." ”
The hand muttered, "It's still the Cabinet Lord's measure." ”
The faces of the people around him were blackened, and they casually pulled out their long knives in front of the Imperial Court and the Jiliao Governor, and they didn't take it seriously!
"How?"
"Let's do it, villain."
The gun hand took the fire gun back, and then put the bottom of the long knife that looked extremely sharp and narrow against the gun, and then pressed and twisted, Sun Chengzong heard a slight clicking sound, and then the gun hand handed the fire gun over again, grinning and said, "Lord Cabinet, it's ready." ”
"Well, I'll take a look." Sun Chengzong took the firearm and pulled out the sharp knife with the tip of the knife, although he was old, the ordinary offspring had not practiced martial arts and may not be stronger than him, but after pulling it out a few times, he found that the sharp knife could not be pulled out at all.
