Eighty-nine Because, there are relatives behind him
The words are divided into two ends, while the Song Ping rebel corps is constantly expanding its strength, it is also when Fang La gathers the army, leads the army to dispatch, and advances towards Runzhou, the base camp of the Song army's battlefield, along the way, Fang La thinks a lot, thinks a lot, and makes a lot of decisions, the most direct decision is to order Fang Jiesi stationed in Dantu to send out a small force to test the Song army, to see how much the Song army has achieved after victory, how much the battle damage is, and how the real combat power is. =
Fang La needed the most direct witness to tell him how capable the Song army was and how strong the Song Western army was.
The annihilation of Fang Qifo and Zheng Qing's army brought Fang La a huge shock, and the extraordinary combat effectiveness of the Song army gave him a very big doubt, is the Western Army really so strong? Did the Song army really send the Western Army? Fang La felt that constant doubt was the main factor in his success, and it was precisely because of his constant doubts that he would not succumb to the so-called authority, after the defeat of Fang Qifo and Zheng Qing's corps, he also did a review and found that perhaps it was because Fang Qifo and Zheng Qing themselves made a huge mistake, and the Song army itself was not very strong.
Even if it's the Western Army, so what? My elite in a hundred battles, the elite of the founding of the country, can I really not beat these Song troops?
Fang La will not understand, some things can not be speculated with common sense, just like more than a hundred years later, the first generation of Khorezm's founding elite could not defeat the advance sentinel of the Mongols, this is not to say that the founding elite will definitely be able to win a big battle, the next thing Fang La does not know, when the Song Dynasty opened the country, Zhao Guangyi took Zhao Kuangyin to leave more than 200,000 elites of the founding forbidden army was not beaten by the Liao. At that time, the Liao people had been founding the country for almost seventy years!
So, on April 17, the third year of Xuanhe, after the truce between the two sides for more than 20 days, when the Song army expanded to 140,000 people, Fang Lahuang's nephew Fang Jie commanded 30,000 troops, and attacked Runzhou from Dantu to the north.
Chao Gai is the most capable one among the fourteen guards under Yue Tuo's command, and it is also the one with the highest combat achievements today, worthy of the title of the King of Tota, and has won the trust of the soldiers under his command, Yue Fei went to war, and naturally let Yue Tuo's family of men and horses fight, Zhang Ying was reluctant to let Yue Tuo's mastermind fight, even if he knew that Yue Tuo's martial arts were not under Yue Fei, but he still ordered Chao Gai to fight.
Yue Fei led the left army of 7,000 people, Chao Gai led the right army of 8,000 people, unified under Zhang Shuye's control, before sending troops, Yue Chuan analyzed in detail the reason why Fang Jie led the troops, Yue Chuan believed that there were obviously tens of thousands of troops, and there were hundreds of thousands of Fang La's army behind them, if it was a decisive battle, they should all be brought, and the sentinel report was indeed only these 30,000 people going north, and the rest of the people were stationed in Dantu, so Yue Chuan judged that this army was only here to test the Song army, not to fight a decisive battle.
The current situation is that the later the decisive battle is better for us, the army still needs to be rectified, the soldiers and horses still need to be trained, and the captured 60,000 original Fang La troops and the newly recruited more than 60,000 soldiers and horses are not yet able to take on the big responsibility, so at present, we can only let the veterans of the forbidden army go out to deal with Fang Jie, and the strongest generals Yue Fei and Chao Gai are the two people who command the troops, and assist the generals under their command, we must defeat Fang Jie, deter the Fang La army, so that it does not dare to move lightly, and buy us more time.
And Fang Jie we don't know, as far as the current intelligence goes, he is also a brave general, good at using a Fang Tian halberd, with the courage of ten thousand people, and he has also broken a lot of Song troops in the previous battles, he has military exploits, and he is still Fang La's nephew, it can be said that he is a difficult person to deal with his identity, status and ability, but he is very young, and young people with great achievements in high positions have a characteristic, easy to be arrogant.
You have to grasp this characteristic of him, defeat first, and then win, if you can kill this person, you can kill it, and if you can't kill it, you have to take it prisoner, he is a relative of Fang La, and he is definitely a person who fights until the last moment, and others can also divide and disintegrate, but this person can't.
Zhang Shuye thought about it for a while, and seemed to have an answer, Yue Fei and Chao Gai glanced at each other, and also considered, whether it was Zhang Shuye or Yue Fei or Chao Gai, they were not fuel-efficient lamps, especially after having real war experience, their growth history was visible to the naked eye, and now the fifteen thousand Song troops under their command were estimated to be the Song army with the strongest combat effectiveness except for the Western Army.
After a few baptisms of war, the rotten soldiers of the forbidden army have become the main soldiers and horses that Yue Tuo can trust, and there are too many things that can be changed in the war.
Yue Fei and Chao Gai have a deeper understanding of each other after several joint operations, to be honest, when Yue Fei first saw these seven people who came to join his brother, he instinctively felt that these people were not good, and he also advised his younger brother to be careful of these people, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, you don't know if they are good people or bad people, but Yue turned and laughed, brother, do I read more books or do you read more books? Their every move is under my control, rest assured, they can't escape my palm.
Out of trust in his younger brother, Yue Fei did not object any further, trusted these seven people and Song Jiang, who was appointed by Yue Chuan as the housekeeper of the Yue family, and at the same time, he also saw the fact that these people all had unique skills, so he had to fight with them.
Why did these people come to my brother? Why would my brother say something like that?
Now, Yue Fei has some guesses, could it be that his younger brother has long known that such a thing will happen, so he secretly recruits Jianghu warriors to prepare for the occasion? No matter how it was before, it is indeed handy now, not to mention the other seven children, Yue Fei looked at the children who grew up, these seven people are already very capable of fighting, especially this Liu Gai, a machete danced, Yue Fei did not dare to guarantee that he could defeat him one-on-one.
And Chao Gai also trusted Yue Fei from the beginning of his vigilance and suspicion to today, Chao Gai and the others also discussed whether to make long-term plans in the Yue family at the beginning, although the final result was to stay temporarily, but they did not dare to trust all the people of the Yue family, among which Yue Fei, who looked at several of them with scrutinizing eyes, was the number one object of vigilance.
But now, no need, several joint battles, the friendship between the two sides, the trust between men, is built in the flames of war.
"Gorou, I heard that Fang Jie's martial arts are good, don't compete with me this time, and let me meet that Fang Jie!" Chao Gai laughed.
Yue Fei smiled smugly and said, "Then let's see who is the first to fight him, if it were me, I would definitely kill him!" Brother Liu, please wait for the next time, there are a lot of fierce generals under that Fang La, why rush for a while? Hahahahaha! However, Brother Liu is really willing to go back to Xiangzhou with my brother, rather than joining the army to fight for a reputation and glorify his ancestors? ”
Yue Fei didn't have any other thoughts, but simply felt that if a brave warrior like Chao Gai was only a guard for the rest of his life, it would be too condescending, if he was willing, Yue Fei would definitely be willing to talk to Yue Tuo, and let Yue Tuo agree to Chao Gai's move to join the army, but the speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Chao Gai frowned slightly, and laughed: "Hahaha, Liulang has the grace to save my life, and his fame is like a floating cloud to me, and besides, everyone has their own ambitions, Liulang wants to be called by Donghuamen, Wenqu Xing goes down to earth, follows Liulang, and it is better to join the army rashly, The tattoo on the face is much better, if it weren't for Liulang's life this time, he wouldn't have entered the forbidden army to fight to the death. ”
Yue Fei showed a look of regret: "The Great Song Dynasty treats martial artists very poorly! Then he stopped talking.
In the barracks, Gongsun Sheng and Wu Yong also found Yue Tuo and told them their worries - if Fang Jie was defeated, it would definitely prompt Fang La to directly press on with hundreds of thousands of troops in one fell swoop, and at that time, whether Lin Chong's firearms array and horse team could penetrate the defense of Fang La's army and directly behead him was still a problem, and although the military camp was arranged according to Yue Fan's requirements, it was still unknown whether it could withstand the onslaught of Fang La's 300,000 troops.
Lin Chong's strategy is too risky, putting everyone to death, may not be able to survive, it is still to be discussed, there are not many soldiers who can fight, and there are not many soldiers who dare to fight, whether everyone can protect each other, whether they can live or not, it is not certain, after this battle, how many people can survive? Is Rokuro in danger at all? Whether it is the newly recruited recruits or the defeated soldiers of Fang La who surrendered before, are they sincerely fighting for us?
Yue turned and didn't say anything, smiled, and pointed behind him, in the north, behind the big camp, all the way to the edge of the Yangtze River, in that area, Gongsun Sheng and Chao Gai were stunned for a moment, and then they both suddenly realized.
Family!
Yue Chuan said to Zhang Ying and Zhang Shuye that when recruiting soldiers and horses, they should bring their families and send them to the rear, and place their families in places that are neither far nor close to the army, and give rice and grain to live, so that the soldiers of the army can rest assured......
The forbidden army, the box army, the Fang La army, the newly recruited soldiers and horses, and their families are all in this area, Yue Tuo's reason is to protect the soldiers' families, so that the soldiers can fight with peace of mind and have no worries, but in another case, how can these family members not be the bargaining chips that Yue Tuo used to threaten the army?
If you don't fight to the death, we have been defeated, can your family still be saved?
After figuring out this level, Gongsun Sheng and Wu Yong are both awe-inspiring, Yue Chuan is young, but he is definitely a demon-level character, he used to only think that he was both civil and military, but now he has found a particularly valuable quality - ruthless! dared to take hundreds of thousands of people as hostages and force the army to fight to the death, although no one could see it, and no one would even see it if he didn't say it, but everyone was coerced unconsciously! If you don't fight, not only will you die, but your family will die! What a terrible heart and stratagem!
If Yue turned over and couldn't become a big official and couldn't become a big thing, Gongsun Sheng and Wu Yong would both gouge out their eyeballs - what is the use of looking at people like this?
In fact, they misunderstood Yue Tuo, Yue Tuo's original intention was just to tell them a word, and also to tell all the soldiers a sentence - there are relatives behind him, and they can't back down
