Chapter 148: Conquering Chu County (2)
Ling Feng asked, "What if you can't attack it?" ”
The two were stunned for a moment, and Lu Chang smiled and said: "How is this possible, the rear of Qingliang County must be defenseless, our army will not encounter any obstacles when it enters, and the general county will surrender directly, it can be said that at most half a month, half of the county can be taken, as for the remaining half of the county, as soon as our army arrives, we can fight with Wei Ning in a dignified manner, and the general will have confidence that our soldiers will never lose to him."

"Besides, as for Pang Yi, he will definitely take the opportunity to attack Wei Ning, so Wei Ning will die!"
What Lu Chang said is very simple, but if you think about it carefully, it is full of loopholes.
Ling Feng said: "Wei Ning has been tossing in Qingliang County for more than half a year, the foundation is stable, many cities have been garrisoned, and there are post stations between counties, etc., as long as we set foot on the boundary of Qingliang County, he can get the news within a day, and he can respond in three days at most, how can it be so easy to capture." ”
Lu Chang thought about it carefully, and seemed to feel that what Ling Feng said made some sense.
Lu Wen smiled: "So what the general means... We are fighting steadily and steadily this time, attacking Chu County? ”
"What is there to attack in Chu County, a big fart."
Ling Feng said: "Don't underestimate Chu County, if we can take this county, it will be good; Although Chu County is small, it can be connected with the Sleepy Dragon Beach, and we can also build a water village behind Chu County, so that the upper reaches of the Yangtze River are completely under our control, which is very beneficial to us in the long run. ”
Chu County is next to Qingliang County, relatively speaking, it is located downstream, so it is not bad to say that it is a chain boundary with Sleepy Dragon Beach, but it is too wide, if you want to completely stabilize the Yangtze River, you need to expand the water army, and establish many water army camps, water stations, garrisons and so on. Of course, that's all for later.
Ling Feng got up, looked at the two people in front of him and said, "It's okay to send 20,000 people to take the first step, but... You two, who wants to go? ”
Hearing this, Zhang Wu, who had been sitting in the seat, raised his eyebrows, stood up with a smile and walked over: "Of course I'm going, hey, you've said so much, that's the best, let me go, I'll definitely be able to do it." ”
"Heh, you answer the call quickly, marching and fighting is not a fight, go aside." Lu Chang pursed his mouth and said.
Zhang Wu said dissatisfiedly: "How is it different, just win the battle, I promise to win." ”
"What kind of guarantee do you have..."
"I..."
Ling Feng waved his hand and shouted, "Okay, I have the final say on who to send." ”
The three of them closed their mouths at the same time, and at the same time, they also looked at Ling Feng expectantly.
Who doesn't want to make meritorious contributions, even Zhang Wu came out to ask for battle, not to mention Lu Wen and Lu Chang, the two know that Zhang Wu's martial arts are strong, and Yu Qinglong, who has just been attached, is higher in martial arts than the two of them, so if you want to gain a firm foothold in the army, you can only make more military achievements, otherwise sooner or later you will be squeezed down by these capable people.
Ling Feng also knew everyone's thoughts, but only one general was needed to go to Chu County, and someone needed to bring the follow-up army.
After thinking about it, he said: "I have already found out clearly, this Wei Ning left 50,000 elite soldiers to garrison in Chu County, and these 50,000 people are all stationed in Pingxing County---, the county capital; There are no defenders in other small counties, only some government officers, and some cities may not even have government services, it is simply an empty city, because this county was captured by him this year, and there is no foundation at all, so we only need to quickly attack Pingxing County and defeat the 50,000 defenders, and we can win a big victory, as for those small counties, as long as these 50,000 people are defeated, they will come and surrender one after another, and they will never dare to compete with us! ”
"To defeat the county town garrisoned by 50,000 people, I will only give you 20,000, and all of them are cavalry, which of you dares to go?"
Ling Feng looked at the three of them.
The three of them didn't even think about it, they all asked for battle, they believed in Ling Feng, such an arrangement would definitely win the battle, no matter how they marched, as long as they did what Ling Feng said, there would be absolutely nothing wrong with it.
"Zhang Wu."
"Are you here for me?"
The little guy looked excited.
However, Ling Feng shook his head and said, "You are too young, besides, you have never led a soldier, and this time is very important, so you can't go." ”
Zhang Wu was extremely disappointed.
Lu Wen and Lu Chang are happy at the same time, as long as Zhang Wu doesn't sing, then there are only two brothers left, no matter who goes, they don't care, when they make meritorious contributions in the future, can they get a reward. As the saying goes, fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields.
Ling Feng said: "All the cavalry who went to Chu County this time are cavalry, and all the light cavalry in our current army are supervised and trained by Lu Chang, so this mission will be handed over to Lu Chang; As for Lu Wen, the army still needs you to be an inspector, so let me follow. ”
Both of them replied at the same time: "No." ”
Zhang Wu looked at the two of them, with a hint of envy in his eyes, and now he knew that it was not that he could make a big account on the battlefield, and sometimes he needed a chance and a convincing reason. Even if you think you can do it, you have to be believed in by others.
Ling Feng looked at Lu Chang and said, "Lu Chang, wait for tomorrow, after the soldiers and horses are rectified, you can set off, but there is one thing you must remember very much, after you go to the boundary of Chu County, no matter what you encounter, you must rush to Pingxing County desperately and take this county as quickly as possible, only in this way, the enemy will not have time to fortify, the art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers are fast." ”
Lu Chang nodded, although it didn't know how many soldiers and horses, but it also knew Ling Feng's intentions, if it didn't win by surprise and entered Chu County slowly, the enemy's 50,000 army would completely open the formation, and it would definitely not be easy to win when it was obtained, and the 20,000 cavalry didn't even have siege equipment, so they could only watch under the city.
.........
Time passes...
Half a month later.
Chu County.
This is a very small county, the smallest one in the northern Xinjiang region, there are only a dozen county seats, the population is less than 800,000, for a county, it is really a bit shabby, you must know that Wei Ning now occupies Qingliang County, but it is more than twice as large as here, and the population of the people is almost two million! Even the Qiang County on the other side has a population of one million, which is a little larger than Chu County and has a wide territory.
However, the small county also has the advantage of a small county, that is, it is easy to control, 50,000 people are stationed here, and the surrounding cities dare not make any changes, many families have occupied these wild cities before, it can be seen that as soon as Wei Ning's soldiers and horses came, they immediately withdrew their private soldiers and did not dare to blatantly occupy the city.
Therefore, although Wei Ning's 50,000 people did not take down all the surrounding counties and counties, in fact, nominally these cities already belonged to Wei Ning, whether it was a family or the original county government, they would send supplies to Pingxing County, and then Pingxing County would be transported to Qingliang County, so as to only respond to Wei Ning's 400,000 army.
