Volume 8: Chapter 300 of "Magnificent Rivers and Mountains": Just around the corner
Meng Zhao frowned deeply, he felt that this was not a good start, in the past, the distribution of power in the Han Department was relatively simple, and it was rare for everyone to pinch each other from military generals, but now the Han Department has changed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Since many scholars from the Han Kingdom came to take refuge, there was also a group centered on scholars within the Han Ministry. These scholars are too eager to show that they are too uncompromising to do things, they are around Lin Bin all the time, no matter what the purpose, they give advice, although they have good suggestions, but they are more to find trouble for the generals who are fighting abroad.
Taking the example of Zibo's suggestion to increase troops to the Korean battlefield of Wei's this time, the starting point may be good, but it does add a lot of trouble to the edict. However, the Meng Zhao could not refute the suggestion of increasing troops, because the act of increasing troops to Wei's Korea was correct, and it seemed to be a big mistake not to allocate grain and straw ......supplies.
Meng Zhao wondered: "What does the king mean by this?" β
Meng Zhao is only happy about one thing now, he is very happy that he is only the commander of the Black Flag Army, as long as he manages the Black Flag Army's attack on Wei's North Korea, he doesn't have to be distracted to take care of so many things, otherwise it will be uncomfortable just to deal with the supply of grain and straw.
At present, Han Anguo is the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front battlefield, he is responsible for the operational deployment of Wei's Korean corps, Mengzhao's Black Flag Army, LΓΌ Yan's Tiger Army, and the infantry unit trained by LΓΌ Yan in the early days are also under the jurisdiction of Han Anguo, with a total of more than 180,000 soldiers under his command, and these 180,000 have not been counted as logistics personnel, and if logistics personnel are included, there should be about 350,000.
In fact, the commander-in-chief during the war was not easy to serve, first of all, the food and drink of more than 300,000 people was a big problem in the first place. Therefore, let alone the deployment of the battlefield, the division of war zones, and so on.
Meng Zhao should smile bitterly again when he thinks of this, Han Anguo has no consciousness of being the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front at all, and Han Anguo needs Meng Zhao to nod every time before issuing a military order. This is Han Anguo's sincerity in expressing to Meng Zhao that he will not seize power, but for Meng Zhao, this is a very painful thing.
"Chief Han didn't understand what the monarch meant, the monarch's original intention was to let the Black Flag Army concentrate on attacking, and Chief Han coordinated the overall situation......" Meng Zhao made an important decision: "I can't go on like this, I should explain to Chief Han!" β
He Yan looked at his commander and bowed his head and felt strange, at present, most of the Black Flag Army is stationed in Liaoyang City, and according to Xilin's order, the Black Flag Army can rest in Liaoyang City for five days. Five days later, it is time to continue to attack the western front cities of Wei's Korea, and now is not the time to be in a daze, but to discuss the battle situation with the generals.
The rest of the generals in the house all watched Meng Zhao. What they are most looking forward to now is to quickly enter the hinterland of Wei's Korea, capture Wang Jiancheng, the kingdom of Wei's Korea, and then start preparing for the conquest of Han. Mentality often determines work efficiency, and now their commanders are in a daze. It seems a little unwilling. This does not bode well.
Many people had a question in their hearts: "Is the commander angry at Zibo, who suggested that the king increase troops to Wei's Korea?" β
Meng Zhao decided not to think about it much, but he made up his mind to enter the book to Lin Bin, and strongly suggested that Lin Bin restrain those scholars, if he did not restrain the scholars, let those scholars develop the habit of climbing up without breaking the means, and the future Han Department will definitely be in a miasma, which is definitely a disaster for the Han Department that has just begun to develop!
"Where is Zhuang Xiao!"
Zhuang Xiao, the captain of the Black Flag Military Academy, stepped forward, and he clenched his fists and responded: "The last general!" β
The generals present finally stopped being in a daze when they saw that their commander. Instead, they made some moves, and they all lifted their spirits, put aside their chaotic thoughts, and focused.
Meng Zhao's voice was still calm: "Your department is stationed in the room pseudo-water. It is up to you to tell all the robes about the deployment of the Wei Clan's Korean army on the other side of the room. β
There are many mountains in Liaodong, and there are many rivers at the same time, the so-called room pseudo water is a diversion of the Liao River, it is connected with the beam water, the diversion is staggered in the territory of Liaodong, it is the foundation to support the agriculture of Liaodong, it can be said that if there is no room pseudo water and Liang water Liaodong is a barren land, after all, crops need water for irrigation.
The mural water is connected to the Daliang water, and they are connected to the Liao River at the same time, and the water collected from the inland flows to the Liao River, and from the Liao River to the Liaodong Bay, becoming a part of the sea.
The weather in Liaodong is cold, even in spring, the temperature is only about 20 degrees, every autumn begins to frost in Liaodong, winter begins to snow, and the rivers in Liaodong will begin to freeze around October of the lunar calendar.
Zhuang Xiao didn't have much expression, he slowly walked to the map hanging on the wall, at this time Meng Zhao stood up, and all the generals also walked to the wall where the map was hung.
"Commander! Fellow comrades! Zhuang Xiao didn't drag mud and water, he took the baton and pointed to the area where the pseudo-water was close to the Wei family's Joseon residence: "Our department is currently stationed here, and the opposite side is the ...... of the city."
The generals nodded.
Zhuang Xiao's baton turned to the bottom of the garrison: "This is Xinchang City, which is guarded by the Wei Korean army, and there are more than 10,000 Wei Korean defeated soldiers in the early stage. β
Captain of the Black Flag Military Academy, who led the army at the front, did not attend military meetings.
A staff officer of the army said: "Captain Yang sent back the battle report a little earlier, but it could not be announced because there were many miscellaneous matters. Dear comrades: Xinchang City has been captured by our army, and Captain Yang led the troops to search for the remnants of Wei's Korea. β
Zhuang Xiao was stunned for a moment and then showed a happy expression, his troops were stationed on the bank of the Muro-Pseudo-Shui, Xinchang City can be said to be a thorn in the back, and now Xinchang City has been captured by the troops of the Yang, so the only threat to the Muro-Pseudo-Water garrison of the Wei Korean army does not exist, which is very conducive to Zhuang Xiao's headquarters to concentrate on preparing for the war of crossing the river. He had just pointed out that Yang led the troops to attack Xinchang City, which could also be said to be prompting Meng Zhao to step up the battle against Xinchang City.
Meng Zhao's face was unwavering: "You go on." β
The joy on Zhuang Xiao's face that could not be concealed was seen by his comrades, and he adjusted his mentality to point to the room puppet water again, and his face returned to the perseverance of a soldier: "According to the scouts, there should be more than 10,000 Wei Korean field troops on the other side of the chamber puppet water, and these enemy troops have more wooden stakes on the opposite bank, and the banks of the river embankment are also dug with potholes. In addition, the scouts spied on the city without success, only watched from afar, the scouts reported, there were many flags in the city, if the flag was broken, there should be more than 100,000 Wei's Korean troops in the city. After saying that, he laughed happily.
Gong Du, the deputy commander of the Black Flag Army, touched his chin and asked very seriously: "Wei's North Korea lost more than 100,000 soldiers near Yiwu Mountain City, and they can still send more than 100,000 troops to defend the city?" In this way...... The population of Wei's North Korea is not small! β
According to the total population, Wei's North Korea can afford to raise 300,000 soldiers.
Well, now it's a state of war, the king of Wei's Korea has issued a new conscription order, and the number of soldiers in Wei's Korea will increase a lot, but Wei's North Korea will have a population of more than two million, and according to five civilians raising one soldier, it will be 400,000 soldiers at best, so Wei's Korea lost more than 100,000 in the previous war, and more than 10,000 in Xinchang City, and the large and small war losses should be 1780,000 when they are united, how many soldiers can be left in Wei's Korea?
"Hmm......" Meng Zhao couldn't help laughing: "The stronger Wei's North Korea is, isn't it a support for our army to be brave and good at fighting!" β
The generals laughed out loud, they are all soldiers who have gone through a hundred battles, everyone understands that the war is not based on the number of troops, in fact, the battle is more about the number of elite soldiers, the Black Flag Army has become more and more elite with the increase in the number of wars, and Wei's Korea has lost a large number of soldiers with combat experience in the previous war, and now most of Wei's Korea's army has just put down the farmer with a hoe, can the farmer be compared with the tiger wolf? There is no comparison at all, so the quantity is just the quantity.
There is absolutely no doubt that the newly appointed western general of Wei's North Korea has set up so many obstacles to prevent the Black Flag Army from crossing the river, and it is a wise move to set up obstacles to prevent the crossing of the river, after all, Wei's North Korea has been newly defeated, and the morale of the army is very low, so it is a little longer to delay it. So how much strength does the newly appointed western general of Wei's Joseon receive the newly defeated remnants of the army?
"Huh? Hmm......, ha, haha! Gong Du looked at the beard that was accidentally removed from his chin with a little regret: "Has the general of Western Korea led the troops?" Plant more flags to show more soldiers, this is to cover the ears! β
Meng Zhao smiled and bowed.
Zhuang Xiao retracted his smile and continued: "The last general thinks the same, but it's a pity that the scouts can't enter the city to investigate, otherwise they ......"
"It's okay!" Meng Zhao said confidently: "As long as the river crossing is successful, the city can be defeated." Do you think so? β
The commanders have spoken, can you not be a subordinate? All the gentlemen present responded loudly: "A battle can be played!" β
At this moment, the voice of the guard outside the door came: "Mr. Han has arrived!" β
As soon as his voice fell, Han Anguo's loud laughter rang out, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "What are you talking about?" Where can I fight? β
