Chapter 338: Hundreds of thousands

"General Pan, you continue to take twelve troops, 100,000 soldiers and horses, to guard the north of the city gate, cooperate with the fifty archers of the ghost army in the Dongzhen Mansion, and then effectively strike at the Yunnan troops of the Detokh army; As for the defensive task in the north of the city gate, you still need to work hard.

Seeing the resolute expressions in everyone's eyes after hearing their arrangements, Zhang Shicheng was very pleased, and at the same time, a sense of pride also arose, and he continued: "As for the matter at the South Gate, due to the heavy damage of the Mongolian troops recently, it is necessary to strengthen precautions and necessary security precautions, Tan Zhen, you should still have 5,000 good horses and personnel in your hands now!" ā€

Tan Zhen nodded, he was the main military attache in charge of horses under Lu Zhen's subordinates, and the horses of the entire army, to a certain extent, were under the jurisdiction of Lu Zhen's elite troops, namely Tan Zhen.

Zhang Shicheng showed a smile on his face and said: "That's good, five thousand horses, although they are not good horses, they can also go to the battlefield to kill the enemy!" ā€

When he said this, Zhang Shicheng thought of the scenes of the members of Su Zedong's ghost army fighting bravely on horses, although he did not see them at the scene, he could also see them from the report, and he muttered in a low voice: "With less than a hundred casualties, the heads of 3,000 people on the other side were cut off!" What a terrifying fighting power this is! ā€

Thinking of this, Zhang Shicheng still has expectations for this group of elite cavalry troops under his hands, and now the Mongolian troops are claimed to have a million troops to press the border, if there are more troops like the ghost soldiers in Su Zedong's hands, then all this will be much simpler, at least in terms of the number of casualties and costs, it will be a big change.

"The defense work in the south of Gaoyou City will be handed over to Lu Zhen, Tan Zhen and the fifty soldiers of the Ghost Soldier Brigade in Dongzhen Mansion." Before arranging this task, Zhang Shicheng himself personally confirmed to Su Zedong that the issue of the men and horses he sent was injured at last night's drinking party, and many things could be discussed. "As for the finishing work now, let's continue to follow up!"

Su Zedong nodded, the quota of fifty people was proposed by him to Zhang Shicheng in person, originally Zhang Shicheng wanted to have a "one-pot end". arranged all the 100 soldiers of the ghost soldier team to guard the south gate except for the fifty soldiers guarding the north gate, but Su Zedong quickly rejected this plan.

Because, Su Zedong thought that although this Mongolian army had a large number of Semu people, Han people, or the so-called Nanren, that is, people from the Jiangnan region, a small number of Mongolian soldiers, whose best riding skills were to pay attention to the left and right flanks to attack and attack, the east and west gates of Gaoyou City were likely to be severely damaged in the next battle.

Zhang Shicheng didn't know why Su Zedong knew such details, but he had also heard others say that the usual way of the Mongolian iron cavalry of the Mongolian army was to use light cavalry to carry out the first round of strikes on the enemy's living forces.

In this way, although it is simple and rude, it is also very effective, but the transformation is infinite, and the damage caused is also based on the courage of the soldiers, which is very invincible, and only such soldiers can beat the heavy armor soldiers of Europe and Central Asia on the battlefield in Europe!

The ability to fire bows and arrows at a distance of 100 miles is something that only a few Mongolian cavalry can do, which is the most wonderful and powerful embodiment of the nation on horseback!

However, according to the principle of paradoxical transformation, this is why the Mongol forces became less and less dominant in the later battles, and there was no way to maintain the status of his empire in the later wars.

Su Zedong believes that this is due to the fact that they themselves trust too much in the important role played by the Mongolian cavalry in the war, and they will conduct special research on the new equipment such as firearms and artillery, as well as the tactical skills and tactics developed specifically for the Mongolian cavalry, so they will be backward, and the result of backwardness is that they will be beaten and eliminated by history.

Moreover, their unruly character has also created their own civil strife, and it is not uncommon for them to massacre and kill people for the sake of status or fame.

It's just that this is not just a dynasty of the Yuan Dynasty doing this, Su Zedong's experience in studying history for more than ten years tells him that all the changes of dynasties are mostly because a dynasty's own problems have not been solved, and they are still tossing repeatedly, so that as soon as external forces attack, they will be vulnerable!

Just like the current Dadu Dynasty, the "rebels" led by Hama are making the final preparations to help the Han people regain their own court: to eradicate such a person who is running around to maintain the rule of the Yuan court!

"Since the current Mongol troops have not yet all arrived, the estimated one million claimed by the enemy's generals is a bluff, but according to the reports found by the spies in front, the other side has more than 500,000 people attacking!"

After explaining the current situation, Zhang Shicheng said: "Therefore, the precautions of the East Gate and the West Gate must not be relaxed!" This matter will be entrusted to the two younger brothers of this king, and Lord Su's Dongzhen Mansion only needs to send fifty soldiers of the ghost army team each, so you don't have any opinions on the arrangement of this point. ā€

Everyone nodded in agreement. On this point, as long as it does not involve the final specific interests and distribution issues, people will not raise any objections without knowing the future direction of it.

After a general explanation of the deployment of the four gates of Gaoyou City, this collective meeting came to an end, in fact, the specific content of this meeting, Su Zedong once again had a specific discussion with Zhang Shicheng before!

Even on the wine table, Su Zedong didn't know why Zhang Shicheng deliberately suppressed himself and raised his own value at the wine table, and talked about such an important state affair when he was still staggering.

From this sign, it may be seen that it is difficult for Zhang Shicheng to have his own opinions when he is in chaos, so he hopes that someone will lead the way, and now Su Zedong is the duty of a planner, and he can get his respect when he gives advice, but there is also a certain risk, after all, not everyone in the world is as good as Su Zedong now!
