Chapter 581: Variables

Rumbling scattered shelling

For Lu Zongxun, the Great Northern Dynasty and Lu Zongxun, who stayed behind the Lu Long Festival, this was really a disastrous day.

It was easy to get through the most difficult days, recuperate and accumulate a whole year's effort, and finally sorted out the internal relations and disputes.

The Yellow River Water Division, which was responsible for transporting backups, attacked and fought on its own on the river. Although I knew that there were a lot of disputes within Hebei Province, I didn't expect it to be so bad that I actually attacked each other directly in the water division during the war.

As a result, tens of thousands of horsemen have successfully landed on the shore as scheduled, but in addition to the armor and rations they carried with them, the heavy grain, grass, livestock and horses needed for the follow-up war were completely lost because of the chaos of the Yellow River sailors.

Then the vanguard sent out returned again, directly chased people outside the camp gate, and for a time the diplomatic distress of the army was in turmoil, but fortunately he was forcibly calmed down by the skill and authority of the army he spliced for many years.

It was not that he had not encountered a worse situation than this, at least when he was besieged by the coalition forces of the Anton princes and Yingzhou throughout the winter, he had eaten those frozen corpses with his subordinates.

When he reorganized his troops and made up his mind to fight against these obviously numerically inferior Southern troops,

But now the opponent is as difficult as kraft candy. They chased directly after the vanguard of the defeat, dug a trench on the spot directly outside the camp on the bank of the river, and then nailed it there like this.

The momentary confusion allowed them to occupy a position close enough and open up the corresponding defensive terrain, and cover the range of several entry and exit points outside the camp with the firing range. The strong attacks of several sorties were all beaten back by dense platoon attacks, and from the dismantled side walls, the roundabout outflanking and flanking weather were not able to swing the effect.

Although they could have endured the casualties for the time being and bypassed them, they would not be at ease with such a powerful opponent behind them, no matter who led the troops, especially when there was a lack of backup and supplies, and the enemy was obviously at home.

In the end, abandon the advantage of camps and numbers, break into pieces, break into the local area, kill and plunder, obtain supplies and other supplies on the spot, and then wait for the opportunity to return to the rule of the national dynasty in the west;

It is better to continue to hold this point in place, wait for the possible support from the other side to continue to follow up, and if you don't rely on killing horses to satisfy your hunger, you can still stay in place for a little longer;

Or simply go all out to break through the southern army in front of you first, gain the initiative and the upper hand, and then talk about other things.

The so-called three strategies of upper, middle and lower also made Lu Zongxun inevitably fall into a momentary dilemma.

At this moment, a bouncing iron bullet whizzed and landed near him, beating a wooden platoon and the people behind it to pieces.

Several pieces of the wooden platoon were rammed and splashed, and even swept into Lu Zongxun's personal guards, and I heard the flag officer in charge of holding the big flag, snorting and falling down with a broken head and bleeding, leaning down a little flagpole, and being quickly caught and re-righted, as if nothing had happened.

And he was still watching the battle situation with distraught, if only there were some heavy equipment, even if it was a catapult or a small crossbow, it would be able to open this dilemma that was not a dilemma.

At this time, someone also picked up the iron bullet that had a lot of blood stains. Only the dark cast iron ball at the mouth of the bowl looked unsurprising, but it made Lu Zongxun can't help but feel moved, the other party actually has the strength to spare, and he can resist the attack in front of the formation at the same time, and at the same time artillery harass the camp, what does it mean.

This idea also made Lu Zongxun completely determined, and he couldn't continue to hold on to each other like this. When the so-called surprise soldier no longer has the advantage of winning by surprise, it should be decisive and decisive to disengage and entangle.

"Immediately dismantle the battalion and form the platoon,"

"Prepare to divide the troops to highlight ......"

"A certain general personally led the jump with the cavalry, taking turns to ...... the palace"

It turned out that he made this decision a little later.

Qingzhou, Yidu City

For Cui Bangbi, who has just been rotated from the front and rotated in advance, it is a little annoying.

Because during this time, the Cui family of the Guangfu family came and lobbied and persuaded him.

Because of the defeat in the Northern Expedition, the corresponding investment and arrangement of the Xi and Cui clans led to heavy losses in the collapse of the mountain, and at least millions of tangible and intangible assets were turned into water.

At the same time, several newcomers with close ties to the DPRK and China were supported by the upper clan, because they stood on the wrong side in the dispute between the old and new Beiren parties and showed signs of marginalization by idle throwers. Therefore, the well-known Xi and Cui clans inevitably show a certain decline and low tide.

However, Cui Lao Linggong, who was at home in Yongxi Hall, did not have much time left to continue to protect his relatives.

Although the contemporary head of the family is still in its prime, the children and grandchildren of each house under his knees are not very successful. Relying on Yu Ze, who was the old Linggong, at most, he was able to achieve his subordinates from the six grades of Langzhong.

It's not about the hot power in hand, it can only be regarded as a good amount of fat. If Lao Linggong goes, I'm afraid that even this good errand with plenty of oil and water will not be able to keep it.

Therefore, at this time, after someone consulted Cui Lao Linggong, he finally remembered that he was an idle hand who was unintentionally arranged, and he had actually come to this point because of fate.

Therefore, now he has specially sent his familiar peers to use the resources and connections promised by the family to burn his cold stove, so as not to find a way out or retreat for the future of the family.

Of course, it is not necessary to promote the children of the clan who are familiar with him within his position, but for those people in the family, he is a little speechless and helpless, but he feels ridiculous.

In Guangfu, the so-called sons and daughters of the nobles are also very well-born, and the nobles of each family are all big families, but there are also quite a lot of relatives and relatives who support and maintain them. Therefore, the resources that can be allocated are also according to the distance between relatives and relatives, and there are great differences between three, six, nine and so on.

Therefore, a side branch of the main house of the previous generation like him was born as a child of a concubine. Although it can't be said to be shabby, in Guangfu locality, it should not be too common to follow the crowd.

Therefore, he was stuffed into the classes in front of the palace to mix his background, relying on his strong appearance and skillful weapons, he became one of the two commanders of Feiyun Capital. It also happened to be the opportunity to form the Seventh Division of the New Army, and the seventh general who was stuffed into the tail of the crane? Under his command, he finally caught the last train of this round of prospects and opportunities, and mixed with the seniority of a battalion officer.

Then, in the nine lives of the Northern Expedition, he walked to his current position step by step, which can be said to be full of feelings and mixed feelings.

But among the five commanders, he is obviously the one with the weakest prestige and qualifications, and even Wang Gui, who came from outside the system as a friendly army and brought the old troops to defect. It was only because of some practical need and someone's insistence that he was able to continue to sit in this position.

Then, under the condition that Xin Jiaxuan, who was in charge of the overall situation in the army and had no time to be separated, he took charge of the daily affairs of the right guard of the battalion as the deputy commander, and at the same time took turns to go to the front war zone.

According to the rules of the dynasty, the various military orders were different in size. If there are more than 5,000 soldiers, they can be placed with military titles, but those who lead the army are only called commanders to control the officers and generals of each battalion; and the order of the army, which reached 8,000 men, was called the commander; Only when the number of soldiers is tens of thousands of troops is fully established, the leader can be called the commander;

The large military system, which has 13,000 personnel, is not to be set up as a deputy commander; For sequences of more than 15,000 members, the left and right commanders and left and right commanders should be added in turn to share their responsibilities.

For example, now one of the three main battle armies under the rule of Qingzhou, the left army of the imperial camp is composed of 12 battalions and 10 battalions, with a total of 12,000 troops.

The second largest battalion right guard, with ten battalions and seven battalions, also set up his deputy commander to divide his responsibilities into chapters; The third-ranked former army had 10 battalions, but the number of people in the establishment was less than 9,000, so only the original commanders were maintained.

As the right protector of the camp under Cui Bangbi, he has a special experience and encounter, and he is more sensitive to certain things.

Because he was invaded and forcibly annexed by the commander, and was easily abandoned in times of crisis, he learned from the past, and finally the old army since he was born did not care about the past suspicions, nor did he care about the gains and losses.

After being reincorporated into the system, they continued to retain their numbers and banners quite generously, and replenished and rebuilt this right guard army that should have died out, so that it had its current scale and situation.

Therefore, in hindsight, I said that most of them had long ago been very uninterested in the so-called temptation of future and opportunity promised by the rear of the country, and even had some disgust.

In this way, he at least understood the upper limit of his talent and pattern, and no longer lost and gullible in those false promises and promises from the power.

After all, if he, as the commander of the system, dares to openly express the signs of the separatist group setting up another hill under the current good situation. It goes without saying that everyone has betrayed their relatives and left them, but I am afraid that except for a few individual speculators who are lucky, even those old subordinates who survived easily may not be willing to go with him.

However, if he does not have the followers of his competent and reliable subordinates and cronies, even if he returns to the rear alone, and has a new future and opportunities appreciated by his superiors, he will rarely have enough opportunities to stand out, and it is easier for him to be lost to the public in the constant daily wrestling, or to be reduced to an ordinary military minister who does nothing but mediocrity.

After all, in the land of Guangfu, he is a mere commander, but he really can't be a big name. And the hard work in the center of power is incomparable with the real power and sense of achievement held at the front. The wrong choice of standing in line once ago is enough to be thought-provoking, if you choose the wrong one again for no reason, it is to blame others and destroy your future, and you are not human inside and outside.

In addition, the practice of avoiding suspicion in advance and looking for peaches afterwards in the clan also made him have some inexplicable pimples and mustards.

Thinking of this, he still made up his mind and sent someone to make a noise.

"Someone...... Forget it"

However, before he could speak, he changed his mind and waved his hand to let the soldiers who came in retreat.

In the end, he decided to go over and explain it himself, and it was just because of this reason that he could show his sincerity to the town that had returned from visiting relatives.
