Chapter 283: I Can Let It Go

The weather finally got cold, especially against the Yuan River, and the humidity was heavy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info usually fog up in the field as soon as the morning dawns, and it doesn't disperse until the afternoon.

The cold mist condensed in the sound of the armor, and the cold air penetrated into the bones everywhere, making people shiver incessantly.

This was especially true today, when the fog filled the day into the evening.

……

The so-called war is nothing more than the projection of military force. The purpose is to occupy the enemy's domination area and destroy the opponent's ruling institutions.

Regardless of ancient or modern times, once a battle of more than 10,000 people is launched, the daily consumption of materials is an astronomical amount. In wartime, it is necessary to recruit all the young and strong men in the theater to replenish the logistics baggage troops, no one works in the fields, and everything is crushed to powder wherever the army passes.

Therefore, when the commanders of the enemy and our armies are facing each other, they try to solve the opponent in the shortest possible time and minimize the damage to the economy. Once the two armies begin to confront each other, even if the winning side occupies the enemy's territory, this place is meaningless because it has become a ruin. In this way, it can only be abandoned.

Therefore, under the long war, there is no winner.

Take the First World War as an example, because of the emergence of advanced weapons such as machine guns and artillery, the casualties of the war were extremely high. And because there were no high-speed vehicles such as automobiles at that time, the troops could only rely on mules and horses for marching and transporting baggage, which did not match modern weapons. On the one hand, it won on the battlefield and advanced for a few miles. On the one hand, defeat is easy to rely on heavy fire projection to stabilize the position. In this way, everyone can only adopt the tactics of trenching and attrition.

For example, in the Battle of the Marne, the Entente alone paid 60,000 casualties in one day. Modern warfare has shown its hideous face, and human life is as worthless as mustard on this battlefield.

The casualties were so heavy that they were beyond the soldiers' ability to endure. At this time, the soldiers of various countries were stunned to discover that the so-called countries and nations were actually just the countries and nations of the nobles, and they had nothing to do with everyone.

The soldiers of both sides turned their guns at the same time, tilting the flames of battle on the kings and nobles. For a time, countless crowns fell throughout Europe, and class states such as the Soviet Union appeared in history in a strange appearance that had never appeared before.

Wang Shen is naturally clear about this period of history, and he also knows what mobility means to an army. Since the formation of the army in Sizhou, he has formed cavalry here. Even the elite infantry fighters such as Beiwei were equipped with a large number of military horses, and the mule and horse were initially implemented, which was already very remarkable in the army of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Among the military towns in the Southern Song Dynasty, only he Wang Shen had this economic strength.

Beiwei and Chen Lanruo's cavalry were combined into one, and they traveled extremely fast. Of course, in the rapid march, the troops did not relax their vigilance, they were all elites who fought old battles, and the sentinels and guards were well done.

Along the way, the two armies were constantly harassed by small Manichaean forces.

Within two days, Wang Shen's army had left the Dingzhou water network, and the open field was suitable for cavalry combat. Although the mandarin duck array is exquisite, it is no longer useful.

The cavalry armies of Beiwei and Chen Lanruo were usually a surprise attack, and they completely routed the enemy.

They did not entangle the Manichaeans too much, nor did they pursue, but still marched at a faster pace.

During this period, the cavalry also captured many believers, and in the first trial, they were all transferred to Lianyuan Village in Taoyuan County to assemble.

With so many enemies all heading for the same goal, it seems that Zhong Xiang is really going there.

Wang Shen was greatly excited, and told everyone to grit their teeth and persevere. It was necessary to rush to Lianyunzhai before the enemy broke the army and brought back the news of the Sizhou army, in case Zhong Xiang was not good and fled again.

The troops usually set out before dawn and set up camp after dark.

It is said that such a large army must form a thick village every day and advance slowly to prevent it from being attacked by the enemy. In this way, it is good to be able to walk about 20 miles a day. However, Wang Shen's cavalry controlled the entire battlefield, and the scouts spread far away, and if there was any wind within a radius of twenty or thirty miles, it would reach his ears as soon as possible. Besides, the Beiwei army is very well equipped, and they all carry tents, and when they get to the ground, they only need to put a tent, and everyone can go in and sleep.

I have to say that Chen Lanruo's cavalry really helped Wang Shen a lot, with this high-speed mobile force, the battlefield can be described as one-way transparent for him.

However, I have so many misunderstandings and festivals with her. Based on Wang Shen's understanding of Chen Lanruo, he knew that this woman had a strong personality, a fiery temper, and a strong sense of self-esteem. When she was in Huaixi, she plucked up the courage to confide in her thoughts.

As for me, I turned my head away regardless of it.

"Presumably, she already hates me in her heart......" Wang Shen sighed in his heart.

In fact, from Dingzhou to the present, he and Chen Lanruo have only met twice in total. When the two met, they just said a few words on official business.

On weekdays, even if Wang Shen had the heart to go to Chen Lanruo to explain the misunderstanding between the two, Chen Lanruo avoided it.

In his heart, Wang Shen still has feelings for this chic and bright woman, and even has an idea to recruit her to work under his command.

As the commander of a town, Wang Shen now has to consider the pros and cons in everything he does, and he will never be troubled by personal emotions. In addition to coming to Hunan this time to cut off the trouble of Mo Yijiao's henchmen, he also got Du Chong's secret order to suppress Li Cheng.

Yes, Li Cheng has a good relationship with himself, and he is also a hero. But what, one mountain does not allow two tigers. If I don't suppress Li Cheng, Li Cheng will also calculate me Wang Shen. No way, that's the rules of the game in this era. Anyone who does not follow this rule must die, and even if he does, he will implicate relatives, friends, and subordinates.

If he can rebuild the old friendship with Chen Lanruo, and get this cavalry army in his hands by the way, even if he has cut off Li Cheng's arm. In the future, on the battlefield, Li Cheng, who has no cavalry, will not be the opponent of my Sizhou army at all.

Wang Shen calculated so much in his heart, but there was a hint of shame in his heart.

He looked at the water in the wooden basin, and inside was a gloomy face: the wolf looked at the eagle...... Is this still the same Wang Shen at the beginning? I've changed, yes, everything has changed.

"Military envoy, for a day of rapid marching, you better wipe your face first and rest in peace early!" Yan Yuemeng put his hand into the water and scooped up the towel inside, wrung it out and handed it over.

In the water, the face shattered.

Wang Shen took it and wiped his face, and handed the towel back to Yan Yumeng: "Yan Xuanzan, how far is it from Lianyunzhai here?" ”

Yan said: "I will enter the mountain tomorrow, no matter how slow I go, it won't take two days." ”

Seeing that Wang Shen was still worried, he comforted: "The army has reassured you, the cavalry of Chen Lanruo's army will set off early tomorrow morning and forcibly occupy the mountain passes leading to Lianyunzhai." Even if he was discovered by the head of the Zhong demon, he was surrounded in the mountains, and it was difficult to fly in the urn. At this moment, General Chen is getting dressed up, don't you feel at ease with her. ”

Don't worry, how can you not worry, after all, they are all the elites from the left-behind division in Tokyo, from Shaanxi to Henan, Shanxi, Huaixi, and now to Hunan, most of China has been traveled, how can there be any mistakes.

Although Chen Lanruo ignored Wang Shen, Wang Shen peeked and found that this heroine was a very capable person, and she could endure annoyance and hardship. During the march, she had to scout the enemy's situation and go into battle to kill the enemy. When resting, scouts and guards have to be arranged, and they refuse to be idle for a moment.

By now, he is already covered with dust, and his words are sonorous and powerful. A set of armor really looks like a strong man.

There was no distinction between men and women in the army, and the soldiers of the cavalry army never treated their commanders as women. When they met, they all shouted one by one: "General Chen", "Commander" and even "Leader", with admiration all over their faces.

Yes, she is covered with hard lines, but she can't see a trace of a woman's breath.

However, Wang Shen can still remember the girl who giggled when he was in Huaixi, and in the sun, the white horse was like a dragon, and she was heroic.

It's beautiful!

I think I, Wang Shen, in modern society, am also a person who has been through flowers for a long time and is accustomed to seeing the wind and moon, but how can I be tempted by this neutral beauty?

On that day in Huaixi, if I promised her to stay, what would be the situation at this moment?

Maybe I have a doll, and having a wife like this is also a great joy in life, I think I should be happy with her, right?

Wang Shen, Wang Shen, do you regret it?

Am I really in love with her, no, no, no, it shouldn't be, I only have interests in my eyes, I can't be weak.

"Military envoy, I don't know what you think of Zhang Yong's Changhong Array in the last Anlu Sanlong River battle?" Yan Yumeng asked cautiously.

"How do you look at it, the formation is good, it's just that Zhang Yong has no cavalry at hand and lacks counterattack means, no matter how exquisite the formation is, no matter how strong the soldiers are, they will only be beaten passively after all." Wang Shen looked at Yan Yuemeng and couldn't help but smile in his heart.

The staff under his own staff knows best, he is as timid as a mouse, and he has no responsibility. However, IQ and EQ are extremely high, and he is a qualified staff talent. Living in the center, contacting up and down, communication left and right is the most appropriate, to put it bluntly, this guy is a big secret. If it is used to be alone, it will be bad.

Since he made a praise painting in the army, this scholar also knows that it is not enough to just play smart, so he has the patience to learn the art of war, and he keeps asking the old people in the army for advice every day.

Wang Shen: "If there is a decisive battle that day, Zhang Yong's left and right wings are all there, and there is no need to rely on the river to set up a formation." In wartime, it is a headache to release cavalry from the east and west flanks to disturb the banner of our Chinese army. Therefore, there is no difference between good and bad formations in the world, there are only differences in the degree of training, whether they are suitable for the battlefield situation, and whether the arms are fully equipped. ”

"Yes, yes, my subordinates have been taught." Yan Yuemeng said with a smile: "When Tong Guan and Liu Xianggong were on the Northern Expedition, all the elites of the Western Army gathered and collected the wealth of China, and there were only a few thousand cavalry, where did Zhang Yong get the left and right to charge and ride?" Speaking of which, the general's subordinates have white cavalry, and their strength can already rank first among the military formations. In the future, if you can form another cavalry against Xiangyang, and arrange the two wings, even if you encounter the Jurchen and the two wings of the kidnappers, you will have the power to fight. ”

Wang Shen smiled: "It's not easy to form another cavalry, where to get so many war horses, even if you get war horses, if you don't have qualified cavalry, you can only cry out in vain." Isn't there a lot of war horses in Yue Yun's hands, but when he arrives on the battlefield, don't he also dismount and fight? ”

Yan Yuemeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he glanced at the camp of Chen Lanruo's cavalry, as if he wanted to see through the rolling fog outside: "Military envoy, there are not five hundred elite knights over there, this is a huge fortune!" If the money is in my hands, how can I let it go? ”
