Chapter 1928: The Pocket (I)
Hou Junji's order was quickly conveyed, and in a short time, dozens of people were already hurrying in on horseback or running.
Although Lao Hou's order is urgent, but the person is not very anxious, he has fought a lifetime of war, and this little bit of small situation will not make him anxious to the point of being on fire. It's just that he has a strange temper, and his subordinates know his character, so even if he is not in a hurry, he does not dare to slack off, for fear that he will find him and take the sacrifice flag.
The book is brief, about an hour and a half, and all the generals of the entire regiment at the level of the regiment commander have basically arrived, staring at Lao Hou with nervous expressions, waiting for his explanation.
Lao Hou was also happy at this time, and coughed without saying a word: "Aren't you jealous that Cheng Lao Pifu has robbed all the credit some time ago, this time the opportunity has come, the Byzantine cubs have come to 300,000, and it depends on you how much you can stay." ”
"Three, three hundred thousand?" The leaders of the regiments below looked at each other and squeaked: "Why are there so few?" It's not enough for us to eat in one bite. ”
Hou Junji seemed to be in a really good mood, and he didn't get angry when he heard the discussion of the people below, but scolded angrily: "This is already good, there are still battles for you to fight, if they don't come, you can't also watch it." ”
"That's right, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's meat" A middle-aged man in his forties sighed with some emotion, but quickly cheered up again: "But I haven't fought in so many years, and my hands are itchy, general, I have followed you since I was a child, so why do you have to leave this battle to me?" ”
For his former personal guard leader, Hou Junji was still quite tolerant, glared at him and said: "Give you a fart, you still think it was before, now our equipment is very different from before, there is no reason to fight like before, and the problems that can be solved with equipment can't be solved by people, you know!" ”
The middle-aged man was not angry when he was counted, and said with a smile: "Then, the general, you give the order, and your subordinates will do it!" ”
He was the one who followed Hou Junji back then, and knew that Lao Hou had a character to protect his shortcomings, although he scolded him ruthlessly for things like this, but Hou would still take care of his own people.
And it turned out that he really did not guess, Hou Junji paused and said: "This time the Byzantines came in a hurry, and in my opinion, they probably don't know anything about us, and they think that we are fighting with the lives of pretending to be like before, no matter what time we come." So, this time we're going to give them a little bit of a look. ”
"Everything is up to the general." The people below replied.
"So, listen to my orders!" Hou Junji swept over everyone: "The 88th Division, the 89th Division, 30,000 people from your two divisions set off overnight tonight, bypassing the west side of Minni City, and giving you a day to go around to the mountain col fifty miles away to ambush; The 90th Division, the 91st Division, your two divisions of 30,000 men, will go around the east side of Minneville, and give you the same day, but you need to go around to the Caspian Sea, seal all the docks there, and burn all the ships. ”
"Yes!" The commanders of the four divisions nodded in agreement, and a flash of disappointment flashed in their eyes.
Detoured to the back, apparently Hou Junji was arranging the bag around, not wanting the 300,000 Byzantines to escape.
It's just that under the strong resistance of the elite army of the Tang Dynasty, how many of the 300,000 Byzantines were able to escape? And you can escape for dozens of miles, which is an almost impossible task, right?
In other words, the troops responsible for blocking the back road basically have nothing to do with this big war, and if you insist on saying that there is, it can only be to watch the excitement.
However, Hou Junji didn't care about the thoughts of the four division commanders at all, and after assigning their tasks, he continued: "The ninety-second division, the ninety-third division, the ninety-fourth division, your three divisions are responsible for meeting the enemy, and according to the way of the previous training, Lao Tzu will open a thirty-mile defense line, and not let the Byzantines come over. ”
"Yes!" The commanders of these three divisions smiled happily one by one, they were all subordinate to the right guard before, that is, Hou Junji's subordinates, and it was normal for them to receive the errand of facing the enemy head-on.
It's just that Lao Hou also didn't give them any good looks, and after arranging their tasks, he ordered again: "Guardsmen, people follow me, let's enter Minni City, ambush inside, and wait for the battle to be together, and then rush out to intercept the Byzantine Chinese army from the middle." ”
The middle-aged man listened to it for a long time just now, and saw that he had nothing to do with himself, so he couldn't help but be a little anxious, scratching his ears and cheeks and wanting to speak, but thinking of Lao Hou's temper and character, he had to hold back, and for a while he looked like a monkey who had been constipated for several days.
Hou Junji naturally saw the performance of this former guard leader, glared at him angrily and said, "This time you took the lead in the task of cutting off the Chinese army, are you satisfied?" ”
The middle-aged man didn't expect that he could get such a task, as if he was happy, he nodded vigorously: "Satisfied, satisfied, thank you for your care!" Thank you, General, for your care! After that, he proudly arched his hand to his colleagues around him.
This situation naturally makes everyone around them angry, but there is no way, the task has been issued, and it is even more difficult to change it, so it is a big deal to go back and let this kid have a meal to dispel the anger in everyone's hearts.
However, the commander of the guard division stood up with some hesitation at this time: "General, this Minni city is only afraid that it is not so easy to enter, if we attack it, we will definitely leave traces on the city wall, and if it is seen by the Byzantines, they will not directly attack us, and it is not impossible to retreat." ”
"Well, your proposal is very insightful." Hou Junji nodded and said: "But the city lord of Minni City is also a smart person, and the information of the Byzantines this time is provided by him, so if the old man is not wrong, as long as we send a large army over, this person will definitely surrender, and it will no longer be a problem to enter the city at that time." ”
"But General, what if this man did it on purpose? After we entered the city, we were a turtle in an urn, and if the city lord of Minny City wanted to harm us, whether it was poisoning or assassination, it would be difficult for us to defend against it. "In the end, the commander of the guard division is responsible for protecting the big guys, and he thinks about the problem before he wins or loses.
"As long as we can enter the city, everything is easy to say, how can our 40,000 army be able to control this city, if that Minni City City Lord is not interested, it is a big deal to send him to meet the king of Hades!" Hou Junji's former head of the guard, the middle-aged head of the regiment, replied grinningly.
