189. The crisis of Zhenrong
It can be said that this attack on Yuzhang defeated Zhenrong, and Zhu Wei's troop losses were only about two or three thousand, but with the addition of the mountain people of Zhongling Mountain, in fact, Zhu Wei's total strength was not much less. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As for the auxiliaries, they increased the number of 5,000 people in Yuzhang City, and the total number of troops under his control could be regarded as about 40,000.
Therefore, after Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan discussed, Zhu Wei left the original Lingyang recruits, 5,000 auxiliaries and 3,000 mountain people in Zhongling Mountain in Yuzhang City, so that even if something happened, Mu Lan would have enough troops to deal with it.
At the same time, Mu Lan also had to continue to train the 5,000 new troops, 5,000 auxiliaries and 3,000 Zhongling mountain people in Yuzhang City, so that these more than 13,000 people would become regular troops under Zhu Wei.
Then Zhu Wei asked Zu Lang to take 3,000 Shanyue soldiers back to Lingyang County, in fact, there are Zu Lang's 5,000 Shanyue wounded soldiers and 8,000 auxiliary soldiers on the Lingyang County side, if there is any action in Lingyang County, Zu Lang is enough to deal with it.
What's more, the troops in Lingyang County are still in Zhu Wei's hands, and the 6,000 coalition troops of various ethnic groups still haven't let them go back to Lingyang County, and they are still ready to take them with them this time.
After removing the soldiers left in Yuzhang City and the soldiers handed over to Zu Lang, the troops that Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan were going to bring to pursue Zhenrong this time were mainly the 6,000 allied troops of various ethnic groups in Lingyang County, the remaining 3,000 Zhuwei new troops and 5,000 people in Yuzhang City.
Such an arrangement, on the one hand, is to prevent the troops of Lingyang County from returning to Lingyang County to make trouble for themselves, and on the other hand, it is also to deliberately withdraw the young and strong people in Yuzhang City, so as to reduce the possible changes between those Buddha slaves and Buddhist believers in Yuzhang City.
In this regard, although the 6,000 private soldiers of various ethnic groups in Lingyang County are a little unstable, they can only accept their fate after following them all the way to the present.
In fact, for the ordinary soldiers in the private army of all ethnic groups, it is actually nothing to fight with whom, and under Wang Yuyan's deliberate arrangement, these soldiers have actually returned to Zhu Wei's side.
The real unstable mind is the Lingyang County Lieutenant who originally commanded the soldiers and horses of all ethnic groups and the doormen sent by all ethnic groups and families in Lingyang County to lead the soldiers, after all, they also bear the responsibility of taking care of the soldiers for the main family, but now that Zhu Wei has made it clear that he wants to swallow these soldiers, they dare not resist in the open, and secretly they are still making some small moves, wanting to re-win the hearts of the soldiers.
But before, these private soldiers of all ethnic groups in Lingyang County had been disrupted by Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan on the grounds of cooperation with the troops, and then when Wang Yuyan led the troops, he also used strict military discipline to limit the influence of the leaders of all ethnic groups in Lingyang County on the soldiers, and even found excuses to kill a few, and selected some capable people in the private soldiers to serve as small officers such as tun commanders and military marquis.
Therefore, the ordinary soldiers of the 6,000 private soldiers of various ethnic groups are already somewhat out of the control of the original soldiers.
Now that Zhu Wei sent out his troops, he simply sent the county lieutenant of Lingyang County back, and asked him to return to Lingyang County with Zu Lang, which could be regarded as going back to report the victory and help deal with the relocation of the people, which removed the backbone of the 6,000 private soldiers of all ethnic groups.
In this way, many of the leaders of various ethnic groups who were still a little uncertain began to change their minds, and gradually began to stand on Zhu Wei's side after the military order of rewarding and punishing merit proposed by Zhu Wei's side.
After all, these doormen are not clansmen of all ethnic groups in Lingyang County, in fact, fundamentally they are the type of workers who are attached to these families, so it is naturally not so difficult to accept changing masters.
It's just that some people's families are still in Lingyang County, and some people may have received the favor of their original families and need to be dealt with in the future, but they can all be done.
It can be said that Zhu Wei's control of this coalition army of all ethnic groups is basically a sure thing, and the combat effectiveness of these private soldiers of various ethnic groups is also good, coupled with Wang Yuyan's previous dismantling and reorganization training, there is still a certain prototype of the main army.
Therefore, the troops brought out by Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan this time, plus the 10,000 soldiers led by Pang Yan, Tai Shici, and Ling Cao, are all elite soldiers who can fight, and their combat effectiveness is also good.
Zhu Wei can also see the situation of some soldiers through the list of national generals in the game system, and the training degree of these soldiers is basically about sixty to seventy, and their morale has reached more than eighty, and they are no longer the original recruits and rabble.
In this way, after Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan reorganized their troops, they led the troops from Yuzhang City along the Yuzhang River to join the 10,000 troops controlled by Pang Yan, Tai Shici, and Ling Cao.
Zhu Wei's whole army still took a boat along the Yuzhang River to pursue the remnants of the Zhenrong, anyway, the Yuzhang River runs through all parts of Yuzhang, and it is the most convenient thing to take a boat.
In this way, the soldiers can get a good rest in terms of physical strength, and can also speed up the march, which can be said to be a leisurely waiting.
At this time, let's look at Zhenrong's side, the military spirit is really a little sluggish.
Since that day, Tai Shi Ci led 3,000 soldiers to defeat more than 6,000 soldiers of Zhenrong, if the frontal battlefield that Zhenrong had been advocating was to meet Zhu Wei's army, the fig leaf that Zhenrong's Buddhist soldiers and the Protector People's Army would never lose was punctured.
So the soldiers under Zhu Rong really began to be afraid of Zhu Wei's army, for fear that Zhu Wei's pursuers would continue to catch up, and Zhu Rong would assign himself to stop Zhu Wei's pursuers.
In their opinion, this was almost an order to send them to death, and they did not dare to fight Zhu Wei's army at all.
Because there were nearly 10,000 troops before and after, which were either eaten by the army on Zhu Wei's side or defeated by the army on Zhu Wei's side, it can be seen that the task of blocking Zhu Wei's army after the break was an impossible task.
Now that Zhenrong's lofty position in the army has also suffered a crisis of trust, many people are worried about their families who are trapped in Yuzhang City, and feel that since Zhenrong is protected by the Futu God and Buddha, how can he let his believers encounter such a situation.
So there have been deserters in the Protector Army, they originally came to follow Zhenrong because of their faith, because they believed that Zhenrong could lead them to protect the Buddha land, but Zhenrong was defeated in successive battles, and they felt that the gods and Buddhas no longer seemed to protect them.
Now that there is a crisis in their faith, they are naturally unwilling to die for Zhenrong.
And Di Rong has no way to deal with the situation for the time being, he no longer has enough food and grass in his hands, and he has no property to continue to buy people's hearts, so Di Rong can only continue to rely on Buddhist beliefs to fool his Buddhist soldiers and Dharma Protector Army, so that they can persist and survive the current calamity, and they can usher in a new light or something.
However, because Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan decided on the next strategic plan, Pang Yan, Tai Shici, and Ling Cao did not continue to pursue Zhenrong closely, which could be regarded as giving Zhenrong a certain buffer opportunity, so that Zhenrong could barely save some of the army's heart.
In this way, the remnants of the Dirong army finally retreated to Xingan County smoothly, and here Dirong also got a little opportunity to repair......
