Chapter 239: Marshal Xiao of the Western Army
The second confrontation exercise in the army was held at Daliang Mountain in the north. At the end of August, the 2,000 men and horses who participated in the confrontation were the first to be stationed in Daliang Mountain, and this confrontation was completely close to actual combat, and as long as it did not hurt anyone, any method could be used. The soldiers involved in the confrontation all used a wooden weapon with red paint, and as soon as the paint was painted, they were declared dead.
The two sides of the confrontation, with the previous Leijiazhai and Niujiazhai as strongholds, were divided into two teams, east and west, with 500 people each. In the past, Han Shizhong and Gao Chong led people to preside over the confrontation drill, but this time Zhao Yougong and Xiao Zhiyun personally participated, which was the first time.
In the command office, all the generals sat at the table, although Xiao Zhiyun was a prisoner, she was very calm, and after Zhang Gong narrated the entire acting requirements, Xiao Zhiyun also raised her hand and put forward her own requirements.
"Your Highness, I need two people!"
I knew that Xiao Zhiyun would definitely ask for a few helpers, this woman was shrewd and capable, and if she did business, she would definitely be a profiteer, and she was obviously thinking about it for a long time now. Glancing at Xiao Zhiyun with a smile, Zhao Yougong nodded, and said a little absent-mindedly, "Say, you are a woman, this king will definitely let you." ”
King Zhao Xiaojun said this, just to stimulate Xiao Zhiyun's self-esteem, hoping that she could make trouble with her self-esteem and not open her mouth. Xiao Zhiyun pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows, completely unaffected by Zhao Yougong, "Then thank Your Highness for your generosity, since Your Highness said so, then I can also order it, trouble General Han, General Niu, and General Yang belong to my Western Army!" ”
Xiao Zhiyun spoke lightly, but Zhao Yougong almost fainted out of breath, it was really ruthless. On command and dispatch. It should be Han Liangchen. On the battle in the mountains, it should be Niu Boyuan, and although Yang Shaolie is young, he has the demeanor of a general, Xiao Meiren's mouth is directly about to leave the three most calm people under his hands. It's too ruthless, of course, being so depressed doesn't mean how bad Gao Chong, Liu Jian and Wu Liang are. It's good for these three people to fight, but the shortcomings are obvious, Gao Pet is too brave to fight, which is easy to be taken advantage of, Liu Jian is a fledgling, and he is even more blind to fighting in the mountains, Wu Liang has two hits, but in the end, he is from the grassroots, and he does not have a deep understanding of the battle situation.
Zhao Yougong felt that he was calculated, but Xiao Zhiyun was not calculated. That's not her, hehe. Let Xiao Zhiyun be proud first, he Zhao is not a vegetarian.
In the command office, Xiao Meiren was smiling, with a delicate face, like a blue flower blooming, intoxicating. In contrast, Zhao Yougong's face was a little depressed, at this time, everyone in the hall knew that Zhao Xiaojun King was calculated, but no one dared to laugh, so he could only bow his head and be silent.
"Okay, then Liangchen, Boyuan and Shao Lie will all be at your disposal, but we have a word first, and we are willing to lose the bet!"
"Your Highness, rest assured, Khitan sons and daughters, you can afford to lose."
"Don't say it is better than singing, okay, end the meeting, Liangchen, Boyuan, Shao Lie, the three of you follow Xiao Dashuai, from now on, you don't want to contact this king, save someone from losing and not being convinced!"
"Whoa!" Han Shizhong and the three of them got up and gave up their hands, but the expression on their faces was very strange, and before leaving, they didn't forget to look at Gao Zhong and the others sitting on the other side, Gao Zhong sat straight, facing Han Shizhong's gaze, he held his chest and said with a big stabbing smile, "Liangchen, be careful, don't be a prisoner of Gao." ”
"Huh? Then Han is waiting for you! ”
After the meeting ended, Zhao Yougong returned to the house with his hands behind his back and a heavy face, and as soon as he entered the room, Ah Zhu jumped out of the corner and snorted angrily, "Your Highness, why did you agree?" That Khitan barbarian girl ordered so many people in one go, isn't this clear that she is playing with you? ”
"Don't be impatient, this king's free magic method, rest assured!" Zhao Yougong changed his previous solemnity, helped Azhu to sit on the stool, took a sip of tea, and then asked slowly, "Girl, is there any news from the big official?" ”
"Yes, the big officials came to the news, there are indeed thousands of war horses near the Niuxin Pavilion in Yinzhou, because the Niuxin Pavilion is located in the Hengshan mountain col, it is quite hidden, so it has not been discovered by the party and Qiang people of Quping Village and Shendui Station. However, recently there have been signs of Xiong Guangbi attacking Quping Village in Yinzhou, and if Quping Village is attacked, the party people will definitely make a detour to Hengshan to attack Xiazhou City in the northwest. At that time, the soldiers of the party people will pass by, and it is very likely that they will find the horses in the col, so the big officials want you to go to the Niuxin Pavilion as much as possible. ”
"Kuài? This Oriental official is more anxious than this king, and he is probably full of thoughts about how to rob Longzhou. ”
Although they haven't been together for too long, Zhao Yougong still knows a little about Dongfang Jin, Dongfang Jin is an out-and-out robber, he grabbed things, it was much more powerful than him Zhao. Under normal circumstances, King Zhao Xiaojun also thinks about how to cuddle the grass, but when the Dongfang officials are cuddling the grass, they think about how to scoop the rabbit in the grass into their arms.
Thinking about it, Dongfang Jin is so eager, it is estimated that he wants to do something to pick grass and fight rabbits, and go to Niuxin Pavilion as soon as possible, not only to get those war horses, but also to take advantage of the chaos of the Western Xia official army fighting with Quping Village and Shendui Station to fish in troubled waters. In the southeast of Western Xia, Yinzhou, Xiazhou, and Longzhou are each other's horns, and Yinzhou Xiong Guangbi sent troops to Quping Village, and Quping Village will make a detour to attack Xiazhou to cut off the source of Yinzhou's baggage. In this way, the vast triangle between the three states can be taken advantage of, as long as one side has a defensive void, it can take advantage of the void and quickly take advantage of it.
In fact, the Western Xia people dared to transfer troops on a large scale, and they had to blame the Great Song Dynasty for being too cowardly, even in the face of the weak Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty border army rarely took the initiative to attack, and over time, the Western Xia also had a contempt. And it is precisely this kind of contempt that can be exploited.
"Hehe, Your Highness, the big officials want to grab things, don't you want to? The maid has heard that Xiazhou is an important place for the Western Xia people, and if he can rob it there, His Royal Highness will definitely make a fortune. ”
Ah Zhu dragged his chin, his round eyes were full of light, Zhao Yougong frowned, poked Ah Zhu's forehead, and scolded with an angry smile, "Girl, you are about to wake up, what do you want to do?" also robbed Xiazhou, I really dare to think about it. ”
After listening to Ah Zhu's muttering again, he drove the girl out of the house and lay down on the couch to rest. In a daze. A limp body burrowed into the bed. Zhao Yougong smelled the fragrance. He smiled and said, "Ana, is it your Royal Highness the princess who asked you to spy on intelligence?" ”
Xiao Ana was stunned, pouted, and did not answer. It's really evil, and before she said anything, Her Highness knew her intention.
"Not really!"
"Not? It's strange to believe you. The one in your family has a lot of thoughts, with you as an insider, can she make good use of it? Turning over and pressing the beauty under him, he smiled very proudly, "Since you sent it to the door yourself, there is no reason for this king to let it go!" ”
Early the next morning, everyone rode to Daliang Mountain, and Sanniang naturally wanted to follow Xiao Zhiyun's side. Since arriving at Daliang Mountain, Xiao Zhiyun has disappeared. She led a group of people running around the hill, about this. Zhao Yougong also expressed his understanding that every time an excellent general goes to a place, the first thing he needs to do is to familiarize himself with the terrain. Although there are marching maps, it is impossible to mark in detail where there are trails, where there are obstacles, and where the terrain is dangerous.
Lei Jiazhai, at this time, Xiao Zhiyun and the others all gathered around the table, pointing to the map on the table, Xiao Zhiyun asked with a relaxed expression, "General Han, I don't know what you think about this battle?" ”
"Xiao Shuai, the last general thinks that our side should focus on defense, His Royal Highness's tricks are changeable, Gao Changke is brave in battle, as soon as this battle starts, Gao Changke will lead the elite soldiers to attack the three forks in the east of Leijiazhai. Gao Changke is a brave general in the world, and it is very unwise to fight hard with him, so the last general will build yì, first avoid its edge, and be proud of its heart. First ambushed the strange soldiers and the slope of the three-way pass, and after Gao Changke led the troops to break through the three-way pass, he outflanked him from the back and ate this group of men and horses first. As long as Gao Changke goes, I can easily and firmly occupy the advantage. ”
What Han Shizhong said was exactly what Xiao Zhiyun thought, leaving Gao Pet to Zhao Yougong at the beginning, and it was this idea that she fought, so she nodded and said with a smile, "General Niu, this matter of luring the enemy to ambush will be handed over to you, in addition, please General Yang lead a man and horse to the east of the three forks to ambush, if the reinforcements of the Eastern Army arrive, immediately attack and disturb from the rear, remember, it must be the main attack, if the other party gathers troops and turns around, they will disperse immediately." ”
"Whoa!" Niu Gao and Yang Zaixing hurriedly got up to receive the order, and then, Xiao Zhiyun also formulated many routes for soldiers and horses to feint to attack Niujiazhai, and waited for everyone to disperse, leaving only Han Shizhong.
"General Han, do you think we should stay in Leijiazhai or go elsewhere?"
After a little thought, Han Shizhong made a decision, he arched his hand and said, "Back to Xiao Shuai, His Royal Highness uses his whimsical tricks, Uncle Liu Xin is not an easy person, staying in Leijiazhai, it is likely that there will be an accident, so the last general will build yì and build the command office of the Shuai tent in the riding outlet." ”
Han Shizhong has followed Zhao Yougong for so long and has learned a lot, one of which is the decapitation tactic. is also a general, Han Shizhong knows very well the importance of a general to a war, if the tent is broken and the general is killed, then the battle is half lost. And just right, His Royal Highness is a person who likes beheading tactics, although Han Shizhong boasts that he is extraordinary, but he still has lingering fears about Zhao Xiaojunwang's tricks, so the safest way is to move the handsome tent out of Leijiazhai, as long as the Eastern Army can't find where the handsome tent is, then the beheading tactics are impossible to talk about. Moreover, Han Shizhong felt that if the Eastern Army wanted to win, the only way was to use a surprise move to carry out decapitation tactics, and it was really an open fight, and the Eastern Army was definitely not the opponent of the Western Army.
The riding tuyere is located two miles east of the three-way entrance, at the foot of Niujiazhai, and the handsome tent is placed in this place, and it is estimated that His Royal Highness can't think of it if he wants to break his head.
"Yes, what General Han said is very reasonable. In addition, please trouble General Han to tell General Niu that Ben Shuai wants to capture Gao Changke alive, hehe! ”
Xiao Zhiyun smiled like a flower, and was in a good mood, if Gao Changke was captured alive, she would see what Zhao Yougong's expression would be.
Han Shizhong was a little embarrassed, His Royal Highness and Xiao Zhiyun were not convinced by each other, which made him Han suffer from it. If you really capture Gao Changke alive, with Gao Changke's stinky temper, you won't have to fry the pan?
At this time, Niujiazhai, King Zhao Xiaojun also calmly arranged the task, "Gao Chong, Wu Liang, early tomorrow morning, you will take three hundred men and horses to attack the three forks, no matter how much you pay, you must also take Leijiazhai for this king before noon." ”
"Whoa!"
"Liu Kuang, this king will divide you with 100 men and horses, take a detour to the south of Leijiazhai tomorrow, sneak up, and cooperate with General Gao to take down Leijiazhai!"
"Whoa!"
After receiving the order to attack the main one, Gao Zhong was naturally very happy, but Liu Jian had a little doubt, such a strong attack didn't seem to be His Highness's style?
In the hall of Niujiazhai, waiting for everyone to disperse, Zhao Yougong asked Azhu to quietly find a young general. Zhao Yougong told the young general something, and he gave it up, and then quietly left through the back door.
The next day, Liu Jian personally led a hundred soldiers to touch the south side of the road at night, after dawn, Gao Pet led most of the men and horses to the three forks, at this time the western army also gathered most of the men and horses in the three forks, the two sides of the men and horses launched a big battle at the three forks, no arrows flew all over the sky, from time to time someone lay on the ground as a dead man.
