Chapter 244: The Great War is about to begin, and the officers and soldiers are planning

"Lord Zhang, your troops and horses are now arrayed in Gaobai, and the position is too northern, can you move south and station ten miles to attack the flank of the thief?"

In the camp in the east of the city, the civil and military generals of the imperial court gathered together and nervously discussed before the war. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Outside this small Anding County, now there have been hundreds of thousands of horses, the south is lined with Linzhao Chief Military Officer Cao Wenzhao Department, Yansui General Military Officer Wang Chengen Department and Guyuan General Military Officer Yang Qi Department, the north is Suide Zhizhou Zhou Shiqi, staff general Bu Yingdi, Shi Zaikkuo, guerrilla Zuo Guangxian, and there are soldiers Zhang Fuzhen, Dai Junen, Jingbian deputy general Zhang Quanchang.

The rest of the generals such as Cao Bianjiao, Feng Ju, Liu Ping'an, Liu Chenggong, Ma Ke, Sun Kefa, Gushan Deputy General Hou Gongji, Guerrilla Ding Shihu, Deputy General Wang Xingshan, and Jiang Yiyang, the general of the defeated army, and other more than 40 generals were all present.

By the end of October, the main force of the Ming army gathered near Yan'an Mansion reached more than 10,000 people, and the rest of the military households, odd barracks and auxiliary soldiers also had a scale of 10,000 people.

The one who spoke at this moment was the governor who had atoned for his sins.

The person named was Zhang Fuzhen, the former Yulin soldier, but the imperial court had already issued an order for him to take over as the vacant governor of Guisui after Hong Chengchou's promotion, but the final decree had not yet arrived, and he still used his original position under the account.

As soon as he heard this, he suddenly looked embarrassed, he originally had 1,200 elite soldiers in Yulin, stationed in Gaobai to wait in formation, just to protect the flanks of the army, but at this time, he had been fascinated by the merits of greed, and was ready to break the enemy in front of him in one fell swoop.

But the thieves had no choice but to stretch for dozens of miles, numbering hundreds of thousands, and the soldiers under his command were few and far between, and of course he hoped to gather all the officers and troops in this area to fight the enemy.

"Master Lian, in the decisive battle among hundreds of thousands, I will firmly guard the flanks of the army to ensure the safety of the army, Gao Bai is the most dangerous, if the enemy flees north, you can intercept it." However, even Zhang Fuzhen never thought that the official army would be defeated, after all, 10,000 or 20,000 elite officers and soldiers are here, and there are fierce generals like Cao Wenzhao and Wang Chengen, no matter how many thieves there are, they are not afraid.

"If the thief is defeated, I expect to cross the river to Suide and enter Jin, Yulin is in the north, there is a soldier and a guard, and the thief will not dare to go!" Although Lian Guoshi is a civil official, he is not a dry eater, "Moreover, I have sent an official letter to transfer the Yulin soldiers and horses to the south to Gaobai, and Lord Zhang only needs to go south, go straight to the flank of the thief army, and join Du Wenhuan to lead the troops." ”

Du Wenhuan, the former Yansui chief military officer, the largest time to the mountain, Shaanxi temperance of the army commander, Chongzhen three years was impeached to kill Liang and take the risk of resigning, at the moment idle at home, Shaanxi three sides are chaotic, Shen Yikui in Ningsai, his home was also broken, so the eight hundred township Zhuang went south to pursue, at this moment also to the northwest of Anding County, and the official army came to the aid of Jingbian soldiers Dai Junen, Jingbian deputy general Zhang Quanchang led the troops to converge, there are nearly 3,000 soldiers and horses.

It is precisely this point that Zhang Fuzhen's soldiers and horses converge with him, cut into the northwest of the thief, and go straight to the camp of the army.

"Yes!" Zhang Fuzhen was right when he thought about it, although the soldiers and horses of Yulinwei were not elite, but there was still no problem in fighting the thieves, besides, the big war was about to start, and the more soldiers and generals the better, so he nodded and agreed.

"Where is Mr. Cao!"

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he immediately got up, although he was the chief military officer of the Zhao, but at this moment, the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, had been fully entrusted with the training of state affairs to control the soldiers and horses on the East Road, and he was also within the scope of his command, and he did not dare to slack off at all, and it was also his duty to fight thieves, "The last general!" ”

Lian Guoshi's expectations for him are not a little bit, "Your department moves to the southeast corner, just wait for the big war to start, you are the leader, choose the elite cavalry to break the thief camp!" ”

"Thanks to the attention of the adults, the last general will definitely go to the soup and fire and swear to break the thief camp!" Cao Wenzhao hurriedly agreed.

When the generals heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this first formation, you have to send elites, but the thief army is hundreds of thousands, it is inevitable that there will be some casualties, if your own soldiers go immediately, you have to hit your head and break the blood, this year, there are no elite soldiers and horses in your hands, just like Ai Wannian, originally just waiting to rise, but suffered a fiasco, and now the deputy general is reduced to a general, leading hundreds of soldiers and horses to Cao Wenzhao's subordinates, I am afraid there is no future.

"Mr. Wang, where is Mr. Yang?!"

"The last general!"

Wang Chengen, when Yang Qi heard this, he also got up.

"The two of you each bring their own soldiers and horses, after General Cao, if you rush into battle and see the thieves, you will kill them together and cut off the enemy's thoughts!"

"Yes!"

These three soldiers and horses are the absolute elite in the hands of practicing state affairs, although there are few soldiers and thieves, but he is not worried at all.

"Master Dai, where is Zhang Quanchang?"

"In!"

"The two of you are a team on the north road, but when you see the battle in the southeast, you will move your troops to the south, take advantage of the chaos to storm where the thief's leader is located, and confuse the enemy formation!"

"Yes!" Dai Junen and the two looked at each other, agreed, and took the order, after all, his two troops were thirty miles away, and they had to go around a big circle to return to the station.

After explaining a series of general orders, Lian Guoshi turned his head to look at the other side, "Lord Zhou, you lead the Suide soldiers and horses, rank in the northeast corner, monitor the thief army in Anding County, you must not make the two armies converge, if there is disobedience, the military law will not be tolerated!" ”

"Lord Governor, although there are many people in our department, there are only more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, how can we resist the desperate breakthrough of 20,000 or 30,000 horses in the city?" Zhou Shiqi will inevitably make difficulties, don't look at his way only there are two deputy generals, and the rest of the generals are dozens of members, but the strength is the weakest, after all, Suidezhou is in the narrowest part of the Yellow River in Shaanxi, and the thief army that crossed the Yellow River before all went here, and fought with it, and there were many casualties among the Suide officers and soldiers.

Moreover, the territory is very unstable, just the rice fat, security, and stability of these counties, the largest civil unrest in Shaanxi has broken out, in the two or three years of fighting, hundreds of thousands of people have been killed, and he can't raise many soldiers on hand.

After a little deliberation on state affairs, he opened his mouth, "If the army attacks the thief, the thief is bound to be chaotic, and the combat power will be reduced at that time, so is there a reason why he can't resist it?" You and relieved, I have a mark to sit in the Chinese army, once something goes wrong, it is bound to come to the rescue, you and strictly guard the road, do not let the main force of the thief army and the thieves in the city converge. ”

"If that's the case, the lower officials don't have a courtesy," Zhou Shiqi gritted his teeth, but Bu Yingdi behind him had already changed color, if more than 100,000 people fled to death, how could he stop the three or four hundred men and horses in his headquarters.

But seeing that Zhizhou and Bing Beidao both nodded, he could only retreat to the side, thinking about how to face the desperate thief army.

"Hou Gongji, the king is kind!"

"The last general!"

"The two of you each bring your own soldiers and horses, rank in the middle army, be on alert left and right, and act when you see the opportunity!" After all, hundreds of thousands of thieves, once they become chaotic, they will inevitably scatter in all directions, and then one will not be good, rushing to their own Chinese army, without a main force to defend it, it will not be beautiful.

These two can't rush into battle, but they are also good at defense, so he made up his mind early.

"Yes!" The two looked at each other, and they were relieved in their hearts, they were not brave generals like Cao Wenzhao, although the soldiers and horses under their command were also from the border army, but they didn't have much combat effectiveness, and they could barely fight against the hostiles, but the scale of hundreds of thousands of thieves really made people can't help but be afraid, and if they can't go to the first battle, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

"Ding Shihu, Ma Ke, the two of you each lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, and respond back and forth!"

"Whoa!"

"Jiang Yiyang, Sun Kefa, the two of you will each lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters, converge with Yan An's troops and prepare the road, and ambush the thief army's flank, if you see the thief fleeing to, you will inevitably kill together and cut off the enemy's rear road!"

"Whoa."

"Lord Zhang, you and Du Wenhuan are in one place, for the second team of the North Road, if you see the battle in the southeast, go straight to the flank of the thief army, and intercept its reinforcements!"

Zhang Fuzhen nodded silently, this matter is not difficult, after the thieves and soldiers are in chaos, they can't take care of the beginning and the end, just like free-range cattle and sheep, running around, at that time, he and Du Wenhuan will surprise with elite soldiers, and they will inevitably achieve great success.

"Each army goes back and prepares, and it is necessary to prepare within one day, and it is necessary not to let the thieves escape a single person!" Seeing that the tasks of the generals had been properly assigned, Lian Guo ordered them to retreat, leaving only the three general soldiers present, don't look at his majestic demeanor today, in fact, these are all discussed in advance.

In terms of leading troops to fight, his civilian officials are naturally not as good as these generals, and even if he insists on going his own way, someone has to support him, fortunately, Cao Wenzhao and Yang Qi, who lead the troops, are both people who understand righteousness, even if Wang Chengen has any objections to this arrangement, he can only reluctantly agree.

"Chief Cao, what are the chances of winning if you look at us acting like this?" After everyone retreated, Lian Guoshi sat on the chair, his palms were full of sweat, don't look at others before he was full of confidence, but in his heart, he was not fifty percent sure of this battle.

Cao Wenzhao was full of confidence, "Lord Governor, although there are many thieves, they are not subordinate to each other, among them, there are only 50,000 or 60,000 horses in the Shenyi Kui Department, and the rest such as Yang Laochai, Liu Daojiang and other thieves have more than 10,000 people, less than 35,000 people, each is one, and the orders are different, if they can defeat them all the way, the whole army is bound to be chaotic." ”

Yang Qi also nodded yes, "I and General Cao together, storming its way, although there are many thieves, but there are no elite soldiers to correspond, I am afraid that I will be defeated in a moment, and then I will use the cavalry to drive the rout to rush to its rear formation, and break its camp in a row, so that it will not dare to turn back to engage in battle, the governor only sits in the Chinese army, and waits for our good news." ”

Seeing that the two of them were full of confidence, they heard this and nodded again and again, "So, come here!" Prepare for the feast! I wish the three commanders a victory! Make new contributions! Please! (To be continued.) )
