Chapter 199: Knowing the Strength (Asking for Collection)
Xiang Zeyu's brows couldn't help frowning even more, since the first meeting with "Cui'er Girl" ten years ago, he had the impression that the woman in front of him had not only not cried, but sometimes even more resolute and brave than men, but now she showed a look of fear.

When people are nervous or afraid, they may deceive others or themselves in words, but their body movements and physical reactions will not deceive in any way!
When he heard the words "Su Zedong", a calm and strong "Cui'er girl" exposed her inner fear at a glance in front of herself, who was the "master", which made Xiang Zeyu also feel afraid!
The reason why Xiang Zeyu was afraid of Su Zedong and his ghost army was because the hundreds of members of the Killing Alliance were all wiped out in Dongzhen's mansion overnight!
On the surface, Xiang Zeyu doesn't say anything, but in the heart, he has been holding on; As a member of the Xiang family, he was naturally unwilling to admit that this was the Dao, and there was any organization or individual with higher abilities or deeds than him.
However, Su Zedong did it, and the members of the ghost soldier team he led could destroy the efforts of the members of the Killing Alliance for more than five years and the spiritual, financial, and physical investment of the Xiang family in one night!
What a powerful or powerful thing this is!
Xiang Zeyu is more self-aware than Xiang Feng, he will not be as unstable as his useless brother, and he can't help the overnight hatred, he has been waiting for such an opportunity, so relying on the Xiang family as a traction, and the Mongolian army as the main force to fight against Su Zedong and his ghost soldiers, and even Juyitang and Mingjiao. But he failed, on the tower of Gaoyou City, when he saw the rout of the troops in front of him, and saw Su Zedong with his ghost soldiers and the henchmen of Dongzhen Mansion, killing him against all obstacles, Xiang Zeyu realized his defeat.
The order to retreat was obstructed by soldiers with vested interests and people who were soldiers and officials, so it was not very smooth at first, even after getting the retreat order from their direct general, that is, Yu Hongliang and other generals, they were still resisting!
But as time passed, the soldiers of the Mongol army, which formed a great fusion of the Han, Nan, and Semu people who made trouble and did not want to retreat, ran faster than rabbits.
After Xiang Zeyu saw this scene in the general camp temporarily set up at the south gate of Gaoyou City, as the supreme general of this Mongolian army, he really felt that these soldiers under his command were really not things!
They were reluctant to retreat for their own interests before, but now they saw that Su Zedong had come over with the ghost soldiers and their thousands of family members, so they rushed directly to the front line of the retreating army without any tactics or tactics at all, regardless of any rank or retreat order!
"What kind of soldier is a soldier who is greedy for life and afraid of death, who eats soft and is afraid of hard!" Xiang Zeyu, who smiled bitterly, still didn't hold back the anger in his heart, and after scolding, he continued: "Just take such a group of soldiers out to fight, let alone achieve any victory, I, as a general, can survive, I have to thank the gods for their favor!" ā
After organizing the retreat of this group of generals and soldiers under his command, Yu Hongliang returned to Xiang Zeyu's side, and after hearing his complaints, he had no choice but to blush and say, "Alas, General Xiang! It's useless to talk too much, so let's get out of this ominous place as soon as possible! ā
Yu Hongliang knew in his heart that most of Xiang Zeyu's words were for him, because he was the direct general of the Semu clan, that is, the direct commander of most of the officers and soldiers who had just made trouble and disobeyed orders, so Xiang Zeyu complained to them, and to many extents blamed himself.
"Hmph, General Yu Hongliang! What a skill! Xiang Zeyu didn't want to give the man in front of him a good look, so he said bluntly: "Look at these soldiers and horses under your command, if it weren't for the rapid attack speed of the enemy, you would have rebelled, wouldn't you!" ā
Yu Hongliang was scolded by Xiang Zeyu a few times, where did he still have the ability to speak back, who was already at fault in this matter, he hurriedly swayed his body from side to side, knelt on the ground with trembling feet, and said with his fists: "This is the negligence of the last general, the poor management of the last general, and the improper use of people!" After this is done, I will definitely give an explanation to the general! ā
Although Xiang Zeyu said those words just now to show his heart, from a rational and objective point of view, he himself was unwilling to say what was in his heart;
Xiang Zeyu couldn't help but feel frightened by what he said, thinking that if the Semu man kneeling in front of him was a little harder, he would have the opportunity to seize his position in the army, and then it would bring irreparable disasters to this Mongolian army!
After all, judging from the current composition of the Mongol army, the Semu people still account for five out of ten, and then the Mongols occupy 30%, and the Han and Nan people occupy 20% in total;
The Mongols were too shrewd, and the arrangement of Tokhtar had to be said to be brilliant, with a Han Chinese as the largest commander in command of a 20,000-strong Mongol army, and then the Semu people accounted for half of the 20,000-strong troops, and its Semu general was a soft egg......
Before the operation, both Totoku and Xiang Zeyu thought that the whole plan was foolproof and would definitely succeed, but it turned out that they were both wrong;
Tokhtar underestimated the strength of Su Zedong and his ghost soldiers, Juyitang and Mingjiao, thinking that no matter how powerful the other party was, it would not be an opponent of 20,000 people, so from the 60,000 Mongolian soldiers who attacked the south gate of Gaoyou City, only 20,000 soldiers were arranged for Xiang Zeyu to be used as the vanguard, thinking that they would be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements;
And Xiang Zeyu overestimated the ability of his younger brother, Xiang Feng, thinking that he could really implement the plan completely, and when the logistics battalion of Lu Zhen's troops located in the north of Gaoyou City was burned, Su Zedong and the main force of his ghost army would think that the Mongolian soldiers were going to attack from the north gate, and then they would send heavy troops to guard the north gate, so they would be able to make time to wait for the arrival of Mongolian reinforcements after successfully occupying the south gate. In this way, the task of occupying the south gate of Gaoyou City and the south of Gaoyou City can be greatly increased, and then once a big hole is made, it will become a matter of convenience to take Gaoyou City, and it is best to be rich, promoted and rich, and everyone is happy;
But plans and ideas belong to the category of thought, and life and the battlefield are both realistic and practical categories, and thinking does not determine matter, although they were born at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and have not yet understood or even heard of it, but life, that is, what they are experiencing, tells them the principle of this philosophical category all the time.
Because, the members of Su Zedong and his ghost soldiers are very powerful, at least much more powerful than the Mongolian troops brought by Xiang Zeyu; And Xiang Feng did not complete the expected plan, and actually made Su Zedong, who was taboo to everyone in the entire plan, such as Xiang Zeyu, Xiang Feng, the Mongolian troops, and the Killing Alliance!
Before anyone heard of his name, Xiang Zeyu did not directly confront Su Zedong, he knew how powerful he was, and Xiang Feng, who had several confrontations and was defeated on a large scale, actually burned the tent in the logistics camp of Lu Zhen's troops at the north gate of Gaoyou City in this operation;
It's like deceiving Haiti to defeat the direct manager of the Ghost Soldiers, the big owner of the Dongzhen Company, the hall master of the Juyi Hall, and the owner of the Dongzhen Mansion, this is indeed far-fetched!
For Xiang Feng and Xiang Zeyu's practices, Su Zedong was also almost successful!
He and Liu Zhenming are just soul piercers, but they are not the creators who know the future and know the destiny of heaven, and they don't have magical tricks, Xiang Feng and Xiang Zeyu's plan can't be called unstoppable, but there will be an oversight in the barracks, under the greed of the soldiers, the "butterfly effect" is always a good breakthrough for the relative people who plan!
Lin Yimu is not a good leader, because he has a Wu Shicheng who is not a thing as his boss, and Wu Shicheng's subordinates have a group of people like Lin Yimu;
In addition to practicing martial arts, everything else is done with wine bags and eggs, so even if Lin Yimu doesn't say it, the people who do things with him will always say it, and as soon as their plan is recognized, as long as normal people think of the roads and fortifications of the north gate and the south gate, they can push out whether it is easier for the Mongolian troops to break through from the north gate, or it is easier to break through from the south gate!
After Su Zedong had the help of the intelligence team of the ghost soldiers, what he needed to do was to be a coordinator and organizer, instead of being a planner and executor, because he believed in the brainpower and force of the old members of the ghost soldiers, plus the fresh blood of the new team members and the combat effectiveness of the three thousand militiamen;
The main reason why he brought people to the South Gate today to personally come to trouble the rebels in the Xiang family, the Mongolian troops, and Zhang Shicheng's troops was that he wanted to personally prove the ability of his subordinates to do things and whether his decision was correct;
Fortunately, he had more than 600 years of wisdom than the people of the Yuan Dynasty, and he still succeeded in speculating on the other party's ideas and practices, and at the most appropriate time, when the other party was still complacent about his own ideas and practices, and when he was thinking about how to achieve more credit for himself, when the reinforcements of the Mongolian troops had not yet arrived, he took more than 3,000 people to the south of Gaoyou City, making the other party's little defense look so pale and weak!
