"I'll go! I'm scared to death......" Xiao Jing walked out of the door of the guest house, and waited until the car drove out of the gate for more than a hundred meters before he let out a long breath.

Zhang Yuan sat next to him and shrugged his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Isn't this matter just a matter of lip service?" Anyway, they don't know what that thing is for, and it happens to be hot again, so they don't use it as a heater. The more you can blow it, the more you can frighten them. Saying that, Zhang Yuan leaned over and whispered, "I'm aiming at her bed, you can go to the counter-espionage department at night to see the pretty girl sleeping!" Why don't we go now? ”

"You just!" Xiao Jing pushed Zhang Yuan a little unhappily, put his collar up with his right hand and said, "You really think I'm a fool, right?" I don't have these hobbies, besides, it's winter, and even if people sleep, they have dressing gowns, and they are covered with such a thick quilt, they can see ghosts. ”

"Look! Look! Zhang Yuan's fingers almost poked Xiao Jing's face, "I also said that it wasn't a stinky job, and I was dissatisfied with the quilt, so I just put another one in the bathroom and said it was a bath bomb." Xiao Jing opened Zhang Yuan's finger angrily, "Okay, don't talk about this, by the way, didn't you say that you still want to see the operation of the generator?" Don't you go? Why don't I take you to a heavy industry lab? ”

"No," Zhang Yuan waved his hand, leaned on the not very comfortable backrest, yawned and said, "The operation of the generator must be normal now, if there is a problem, at least it will be after tomorrow afternoon, even if the quality of our things is poor, it is impossible to have a problem, so let's go back to sleep first, didn't you see Yuan Zhenli driving Pan Dai back to Yuanlao New Village?" ”

"Well, okay then, let's go back as well, shall we?" Xiao Jing was also yawned by Zhang Yuan, "I don't know how many things there are tomorrow, and I have to solve them one by one." ”

"Yes, there are a lot of things, but there is one thing you must not forget," Zhang Yuan yawned again, "That Ston has a problem, I don't know how he passed the political examination last time, he has a big problem, and now he has been sent to the diplomatic negotiation team to assist in formulating the negotiation outline, if it is not my expectation, he should make some smoke at the end of the negotiation, and then flee back with the diplomatic team." ”

"Not really, right?" Xiao Jing slowed down the car, "The political trial in Ston was submitted by the Counterespionage Department, and it seems that there is still complete evidence and a special file, so there shouldn't be so many problems, right?" Besides, how can he explain the loss of six capital ships of his Eastern Fleet when he flees from us and goes back to the side of the Meednos? Without us, he has only one way to die. ”

"You have to be a little more attentive to everything, I said that the princess ran out with you on the night shift, and you think she really just wants to have supper with you? She probably also wants to know more about us, so that she can prepare in advance, and then she will take a bite of our meat. Zhang Yuan yawned again as he spoke, and was stunned to take Xiao Jing with him and yawned.

"Are you finished? This yawn one after another, taking me here non-stop, I'm still driving! Xiao Jing rubbed his eyes as he spoke, "Fatigue driving is a major safety hazard, you go to sleep in the back seat!" When you arrive at the old village, I will call you. ”

"Just pull it down! What time is it? Zhang Yuan took out the mobile phone that had broken the glass from his pocket, shook his head and looked at it with a yawn, covered his mouth and said, "At this time, who else in Dongfang Port will drive outside except us?" It's safe! ”

============================= divider =============================

In a huge tent, more than twenty officers stood, all of them with stunned expressions, and they all looked at a senior general sitting behind the only table in the tent.

"General Zhao! Do you have anything to say? A general-looking person sitting at the top said with some dissatisfaction, "This time, our vanguard battalion has more than 10,000 people, and we have suffered heavy losses in the battle with the southern rebels, and only more than 300 people have fled back, why didn't you truthfully report your southern rebels' combat strength?" ”

"He is in Cao Ying's heart in Han at all! Pretend to take refuge in us, and then secretly conspire with the south! Handsome! I feel that this thief should be pushed down and beheaded to stabilize the army's heart! A young general in armor next to him said with resentment on his face, and at the same time glared at Zhao Ximin fiercely.

The vanguard at the front encountered the infantry battalion, and after suffering huge losses, only a small number of soldiers of the Northern Army fled back to the main camp of the main force, and the news came back, which surprised the command class of the main force of the Northern Army. The commander-in-chief also had to hastily convene this military council at this moment to discuss the next battle policy.

The person known as Dashuai had a gloomy face at the moment, his eyes were staring at Zhao Ximin tightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Zhao Ximin was seen with straight hair all over his body, and although it was winter, he could still feel that his back was completely soaked.

Zhao Ximin is to blame for this matter, but he is actually really wronged. The forces that defeated the Northern Army were urgently formed after receiving news of the defeat of the South Bank Army at the port of Champa, and the relations between South Annan and Medeno were in fact hostile before the defeat of the South Bank Army. But at this time, the situation has been completely reversed, and it is already the Maidno people who have paid for the guns, and the Annan people who have sent people to form these elite infantry battalions. In the past, there were firearms units in the Annan army, but the ratio to hand-to-hand combat troops was not even 100 to 1, while the musket equipment of the infantry battalion had reached 1 to 1, and some troops even outnumbered the pikemen by 3 to 2.

Since the Northern Army successfully attacked Jiezhen when the defense of Jiezhen was seriously weakened by the defeat of the South Shore Army, its army has been filled with a kind of blind optimism, first of all, the Southern Shore Army, the strongest and most powerful army in the Southerners, was sent to death by the Annamite self-defeating martial arts, and then the Maideno Marine Corps, which is known as the most powerful army in the world, was defeated under the surprise attack of the Northern Army, and most of them were routed and fled. Subsequently, the northern army attacked the city and plundered the land all the way in the south, looting and occupying many cities along the way, and at this time it seemed to occupy one-third of the cities in southern Annam, and in their feelings, it seemed that Hue could be conquered three to five months after the Chinese New Year, and then they would be able to occupy the entire territory of southern Annam and complete the reunification of Annam.

But not all the generals in the northern army have such an optimistic spirit, Zhao Ximin is one of them, first of all, since he defected to the north, he has been extremely unsatisfactory. Even if his army on the south bank suffered heavy losses and returned from defeat, he still had an army of about 30,000 men when he defected to the north. However, the northerners were full of distrust of him, not only disrupted all his 30,000 troops into various armies, but also sent the former South Bank Army troops that had been surrendered to the front as cannon fodder for consumption when attacking Jiezhen, and now the original more than 30,000 people under Zhao Ximin are only a few thousand people directly under the jurisdiction at this time, and most of them are old and weak, and have no combat effectiveness; In addition to these, there is no place for him Zhao Ximin in the Northern Army, and when he was in Nan Annan, he was basically the commander of the same thing, but now in the military council of the Northern Yankees, he is basically a dispensable punching bag, and it is better for the Northern Army to march forward victoriously all the way, and now that he has suffered such a big defeat, he naturally puts all the blame on him. Losing the battle is to find a scapegoat, and he, the commander of the strongest army of the former Southern Army, who has no status in the Northern Army, is precisely the best candidate to carry the blame.

"Dashuai, the villain is wronged!" He didn't care about how aggrieved he felt at this moment, and hurriedly defended himself, "The rebel thief who resisted our heavenly army this time is not the original southern rebel army, and the marshal has insight that the southern bank army has always been the strongest military force in the southern rebellion, but its combat effectiveness is still sparse and ordinary, and it has to suffer a big defeat in front of the Chinese." If the South Bank Army had such combat power at that time, why did it do this? ”

Before Zhao Ximin's words fell, he heard the generals next to him snorting coldly, and some people stepped forward and said, "Someone said before that Zhao Ximin defected to the heavenly army openly, but secretly had an affair with Nan Rebellion, and the lower officials didn't believe it at first, but at this time, I heard his words, but it was a sure fact!" ”

"That is, if the South Shore Army had such combat power at that time, you would continue to be the enemy of our Heavenly Army, right?" Someone next to him immediately said in a weird way.

"It's not!" Zhao Ximin was a little stammered, but he still wanted to defend, "That's not what the lower official said!" ”

"What does that mean?" The commander slapped his hands impatiently and shut up the few generals who were making a lot of noise next to him, "Just say it!" ”

"What I mean below is that the combat strength of the Southern Rebellion's army has suddenly increased, and it must have received external reinforcements behind its back," Zhao Ximin hurriedly explained, "This external reinforcement not only provides weapons, but also must provide people to train these new troops, otherwise it would be impossible for those wastes of the Southern Rebellion to have such an increase in combat power in such a short period of time!" ”

"You're trying to say the thieves are helping them?" A general next to him laughed, Zhao Ximin couldn't laugh, "Naturally, it can't be a thief, Nan Wei sent more than 100,000 people to attack the thief before, how can the thief help Nan Wei at this moment?" If the court of the Southern Rebellion is chaotic, the situation in Annam will inevitably be equally chaotic, and that gang of thieves is just fishing in troubled waters in the chaos, and it is already good not to send an army to attack the Southern Rebellion, how can they help them? ”

The commander remained silent, just staring at Zhao Ximin, "Go on!" ”

"If you talk about aiding the south, there is a force." Zhao Ximin hurriedly said, "That's the Maidno people, since the Maidno people launched the rebellion of the Southern Rebellion of the Imperial Court, they have manipulated the Southern Rebel Imperial Court in the name of the descendants of the Li Clan, and directly manipulated the state affairs of Annam. Since the Meideno people have gone against the south with their fake hands, the southern rebellion has suffered a great setback, and at this moment it has already shown fatigue, and it has been shocked by the power of the heavenly army, and it has already lost many cities at this moment. The Medenor people will definitely send troops to protect the territory they occupy now. ”

"What about the Medenor? Could it be that they are three heads and six arms? Can I wait for no chance of winning? The expression on the commander's face began to get colder and colder, staring at Zhao Ximin's heart.

Zhao Ximin hurriedly took a deep breath and said loudly, "The people of Maidno are in cahoots with the south, and they have formed a new army at this moment, so they should be following the example of the thieves. The damage to the Celestial Army should be caused by an ambush in the valley, not a lack of combat strength, although the Maidno people can improve their combat strength, but they are not hindered in the overall situation, in front of the Celestial Army, all enemies are just chickens and dogs. Even if the southern rebellion occasionally has this victory, in front of the power of the heavenly army, it is a grasshopper that can't jump for a few days after the autumn. ”

"Well, that's pretty much it." The expression on the commander's face softened slightly, "Then according to General Zhao's view, how should the Heavenly Army clean up this group of southern rebels at this moment?" ”

"This ......" Zhao Ximin couldn't help but be stunned, he had never been exposed to this kind of infantry battalion's combat method, and he had no idea how to crack the infantry battalion. Someone next to him immediately said in a weird way, "How could he be willing to say it?" These are his former favorites. ”

"That is, they are all a family, and now the dead are all soldiers of my Heavenly Army, and they are not his family members who died, so why bother to say it?" "That's right, I still opposed the acceptance of these southern rebels from the beginning, if they are not of our race, their hearts will be different, they will come to join us, they must have the intention of killing our soldiers."

"Okay," the commander obviously didn't have much mood swings, just raised his hand and pointed at Zhao Ximin, "General Zhao, tell me about it." ”

"Yes," Zhao Ximin was very unhappy in his heart, but people are under the eaves, how can they not bow their heads? He could only suppress the anger in his heart, and said quietly on his face, "This southern rebel army that is fighting with our heavenly army should be a new army, and its combat should be based on firearm shooting, which can shoot many times before the distance between the two sides can fight hand-to-hand, and at the same time bombard with artillery, and kill people a hundred steps away with the power of firearms." ”

"Well, that's true." The commander raised his eyebrows, "The sergeant who has returned from this officer has already asked the enemy to shoot at a long distance with a large number of firearms, and then fired with artillery from the mountain beams on both sides, killing and injuring a large number of our soldiers of the Heavenly Army, which caused heavy casualties to our soldiers." ”

"Yes," Zhao Ximin hurriedly clasped his fists with both hands, "Dashuai Mingjian!" ”

"Then according to General Zhao's view, how should this battle be fought?" The commander looked at Zhao Ximin with an inquiring gaze, and several officers next to him were about to speak, but they were stared back by the commander with a rather fierce gaze, and they all shrank aside honestly and didn't dare to say more.

"Zhao's previous battles were face-to-face with people, knife and gun to knife and gun, stick to stick fighting, this head-to-head battle with firearms has never been carried out, but think about it, it should be to shorten the distance between the two sides as soon as possible in the time when the enemy exerts the power of firearms, and when the two sides are mixed, then firearms will have no power." Zhao Ximin hesitated for a moment, "I just don't know the combat effectiveness of the army of the Southern Rebellion in hand-to-hand combat." ”
