Chapter 356: Cheng Dashao, who got his wish
Tang Jian and Xu Mu scoffed at Cheng Wenyuan's words, especially Xu Mu, he was originally the main battle faction, but his views were different from Tang Jian's, seeing that Cheng Wenyuan was the same as him, Gongsun Yiqing seemed to agree with his suggestions, and couldn't help but get anxious.
"First exterminate the affiliated cottage of the White Tiger Village?" Xu Mu sneered and said: "There are many affiliated cottages in Baihu Village, if we fight them one by one, how much food will it cost?" How much manpower and material resources are wasted? ”
In all fairness, Xu Mu's point of view is not wrong, Liaodong's troops are tight, and supplies are even more scarce, if they attack the affiliated cottages of Baihu Village one after another, and continue to send troops across the mountains, even if the soldiers are not dragged down, those strategic materials will be exhausted.
Xu Mu saw Gongsun Yiqing bowing his head and pondering, he also had confidence in his heart, he glanced at Cheng Wenyuan, and said lightly: "The White Tiger Village must be destroyed, but we don't have to attack its affiliated cottages one by one, as long as we concentrate our forces to take the White Tiger Village in one fell swoop!" ”
Gongsun Yiqing nodded and said: "Yes, it is difficult for those affiliated cottages to become any climate, as long as they take the White Tiger Village, these affiliated cottages will be scattered." ”
When Xu Mu heard this, he immediately became proud, while Tang Jian and Cheng Wenyuan looked at him with jealousy.
Cheng Wenyuan gritted his teeth, knowing that if he didn't make a sound at this time, he would really have nothing to do with the commander, he pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Taishou, I don't think this plan is appropriate." ”
"Oh?" Gongsun Yiqing glanced at Cheng Wenyuan suspiciously, there was no angry expression on his face, but he said with an inquiring meaning: "What's wrong, tell me what you think." ”
Xu Mu snorted coldly and turned his head away, and Tang Jian was dissatisfied that Xu Mu's suggestion was adopted by Gongsun Yiqing, and at this time he also wanted to suppress Xu Mu with Cheng Wenyuan's hand, so he encouraged: "General Cheng, you don't have to worry about anything, if you have any ideas, just put them forward, whether they are good or bad, Lord Taishou has his own judgment." ”
If Cheng Wenyuan wants to become a general who commands the army, he must ask Gongsun Yiqing to attack Baihu Village, but if he only attacks Baihu Village, then he has absolutely no qualifications to lead the army, whether it is Xu Mu or Tang Jian, the two of them can also be regarded as generals who can fight well, at least in terms of commanding troops, they are much more experienced than Cheng Wenyuan.
If he wants to lead the army independently, he must let Gongsun Yiqing send troops to constantly attack the affiliated cottages of Baihu Village, there are many affiliated cottages, and he needs to constantly send troops to suppress them, and Cheng Wenyuan's chances of commanding the troops are greater. Even if his ability is not as good as others, Gongsun Yiqing will send several troops and horses in order to improve efficiency, and maybe he will be qualified to command the army.
"We underestimated the cunning of the cottage, the environment of the vertical and horizontal mountains is harsh, although the White Tiger Village is a rabble, but the victory is in the crowd, I am afraid that we have not had time to capture the White Tiger Village, several of its affiliated cottages have sent troops to help, when we are back to the enemy, even if this situation does not occur, when we attack the White Tiger Village, several of its affiliated cottages took the opportunity to cut off our grain road, it is also a big hidden danger!"
Gongsun Yiqing nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, at any time, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, we can't underestimate them just because the other party is just a group of bandits, the terrain of Baihu Village is treacherous, if you want to capture this cottage, we must reasonably dispatch troops and horses, once our soldiers go deep into the vertical and horizontal mountains, we need to prevent being cut off by others." ”
When Cheng Wenyuan heard this, he took the opportunity to say: "Lord Taishou, I think we are still fighting steadily and steadily, and we have eaten away at the power of Baihu Village step by step, although it seems to cost a lot of money and food, it is better than capsizing in the gutter and being ambushed by those bandits!" ”
Gongsun Yiqing said: "That's right, I'm just worried that once the subordinate cottage of Baihu Village is attacked, it will arouse Bai Song's vigilance, and judging from the movements of the Hu people, it is very likely that there will be some action in the near future." ”
Tang Jian, who was on the side, hurriedly stood up and said, in order to prevent Xu Mu from being in the limelight, and said: "Lord Taishou, we have taken the subsidiary cottage of White Tiger Village with lightning speed, even if it arouses the vigilance of White Tiger Village, Bai Song can only be helpless, unless he dares to tear off his disguise and face us head-on, if this is the case, it will be beneficial to us." The terrain of the White Tiger Village is treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to capture such a cottage, you have to call a large number of siege weapons, if the White Tiger Village takes the initiative to send troops to rescue those affiliated cottages, in the field, why is our army afraid of those rabble? ”
"What General Tang said is extremely true!" Cheng Wenyuan said: "Lord Taishou, the last general is willing to serve the imperial court, and lead the troops to attack the affiliated cottages of Baihu Village with General Tang!" ”
Gongsun Yiqing hesitated for a moment, and suddenly made up his mind and said, "Okay! You three obey orders! ”
Cheng Wenyuan and Tang Jian glanced at each other, their hearts were overjoyed, and they hurriedly stepped forward and said, "No! ”
Although Xu Mu was dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't dare to show it at all, so he could only put on a respectful appearance and stepped forward and said, "Promise, listen to the dispatch of Lord Taishou." ”
Gongsun Yiqing nodded, and ordered: "The three of you each lead an army to attack the three affiliated cottages of the White Tiger Village, and I will send another army to assist you, and at that time, as long as you are in a dilemma, the prepared army will send troops to assist you." ”
Cheng Wenyuan resisted the urge to laugh wildly, and said loudly: "Obey the dispatch of Lord Taishou!" ”
After leaving the Taishou Mansion, Cheng Wenyuan couldn't stop laughing, he was finally able to lead an army alone, what does this mean? It means that the Cheng family will have a powerful army in the near future, thinking of Su Yi's domineering appearance on weekdays, Cheng Wenyuan gritted his teeth for a while.
"Brother Su, from now on, your and my status will be changed." Cheng Wenyuan sneered, and said to himself: "The soldiers and horses under your command are indeed extremely brave, but compared with the officers and soldiers in Liaodong, they are still a group of rabble, as long as I can win the hearts of this army and turn them into the Cheng family's private army, when the time comes, who else will be my opponent in the entire Youzhou?" ”
Thinking of this, Cheng Wenyuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, what he had to do now was to firmly control the army sent to him by Gongsun Yiqing in the name of sending troops. Liaodong is not an ideal place for development, and the place where Cheng Wenyuan wants to start must be Youzhou. Now that the forces of all parties in Youzhou are falling apart, and some counties are even in a state of dissociation, if you don't take the opportunity to take these counties at this time, when will you stay?
Even Su Yi can own a county, why can't he Cheng Wenyuan occupy one or two cities? Cheng Wenyuan clenched the knife on his waist and sneered: "Youzhou, it won't be long before Lao Tzu will be killed!" (To be continued.) )
