Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Juyitang, Yan Fu is reporting on the investigation.

Yan Fu was promoted to captain, but he is very special, the other captains are all under the jurisdiction of 300 people, Yan Fu is only under the jurisdiction of two scout teams, the total number of people is 160 people, the establishment of the scout team is different, the cavalry team, the bow team and the infantry team are all 50 people, but the number of the scout team is more, 80 people in each team.

The basic situation is clear, the total number of the army is 1,200 people, belonging to the Shannan West Road Jiedu envoy Lu Yanhong's tooth army, led by a tooth general, this way when the tooth army went to Suizhou, bypassed Bazhou, chose to pass through Jizhou, Bizhou, Pengzhou, and arrived in Guozhou, but only 200 Yajun sergeants entered Suizhou, and the rest were waiting in Guozhou.

Suizhou is Lu Yanhong's hometown, I don't know what the four carriages are filled with, it is definitely related to Lu Yanhong, but it is not Lu Yanhong's family, the route of the army back is different, from Guozhou through Pengzhou, Bazhou, directly to Liangzhou.

Now the army has left Pengzhou and is expected to arrive in Guanzhuang Town in three days.

Li Rupei needs to know two core questions that have not been answered, the first is what the army is escorting, or what important people are escorting, and the second is why the army did not choose to bypass Bazhou, since when he went to Guozhou, he chose to bypass Bazhou, and when he went back, he could also choose to bypass.

After Yan Fu finished his report, Li Rupei made up his mind, because the situation outside was about to undergo serious changes.

It's already September, as expected, Huang Chao will attack Guangzhou, take Guangzhou in one day, Lingnan Jiedu made Li Zhen was captured, and was finally killed by Huang Chao, Huang Chao looted in Lingnan counties, assembled in Guizhou, and then took a big boat, along the Xiang River into Tanzhou, and occupied Tanzhou bloodlessly, the Li Department who was pinned on by the imperial court and Wang Duo, lost the face of his ancestors in the matter of guarding Tanzhou, he did not resist at all, discarded 50,000 elite soldiers, and fled directly to Langzhou, The 50,000 imperial army was annihilated by Huangchao.

Huang Chao then occupied Jiangling, and Wang Duo, who also served as the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, could only choose to retreat, and came all the way to Xiangyang, where he met Liu Jurong and Cao Quanyang.

In other words, the prelude to the chaos has begun.

The valley is too small to be exhibited, more than 2,000 people are concentrated here, a few months can be, half a year doesn't matter, but what to do after a year, is it difficult for everyone to drink the northwest wind, there must be a better place to exhibit. If the world is peaceful, Li Rupei may consider temporarily attaching himself to the imperial court to show his own power, but the most chaotic time has come, and he can use his own efforts to gain a foothold in the troubled times.

Shannan West Road is a very good place.

Li Rupei is very calm, the current iron-blooded army is not enough to directly compete with Lu Yanhong, and Lu Yanhong is vigorously recruiting sergeants to expand his own strength, tens of thousands of troops are pressed over, and the iron-blooded army can't win even if it has three heads and six arms, but this does not mean that the iron-blooded army needs to retreat, and it will have to stay in the valley for a long time, and it will have to wait until its strength is strong enough to come out, on the contrary, from now on, the iron-blooded army will seize the opportunity to continuously weaken Lu Yanhong's strength, especially the tooth army that has hit Lu Yanhong hard, Using various methods of breaking, they continued to encroach on Lu Yanhong's army, and finally gained a foothold in Shannan West Road.

Li Rupei decided to attack and completely annihilate this tooth army, and after this attack, the iron-blooded army must leave the valley and occupy Wuling County and Qingyuan County to seek greater space for expansion.

"The situation reported by Yan Fu, you are very clear, a certain has made a decision to completely annihilate this group of tooth army, and at the same time, the iron-blooded army is ready to make a qiē preparation, and after the battle is over, quickly leave the valley and occupy Wuling County and Qingyuan County."

Everyone was very surprised, they couldn't imagine that Li Lang actually made such a heavy decision, you must know that the time is too short, less than half a year, although the Iron Blood Army is brave, but the number is too small, and the preparation is not very sufficient, if you really want to occupy the county seat, it will encounter the crazy attack of the official army, whether the Iron Blood Army will be able to resist, whether it will suffer heavy losses, this qiē needs to be considered clearly, it is easy to make a decision, how to show strength safely, avoid being annihilated, is the most important.

Gao Chibang, who has always said little, spoke first.

"Li Lang, there is not much problem in attacking this tooth army, if Lu Yanhong sends a large army to encircle and suppress, the brothers can take advantage of the terrain to contend with it, but if it occupies Wuling County and Qingyuan County, it will require extraordinary strength, I think Lu Yanhong will definitely ignore a qiē attack."

After Gao Chibang finished speaking, Huang Biao also spoke.

"I think what the master said is reasonable, if it occupies Wuling County and Qingyuan County and garrisons two places, the Iron Blood Army will inevitably divide its troops, more than 2,000 sergeants, how to distribute it, how to garrison, as for exterminating this tooth army, I completely agree, see what good things Lu Yanhong has transported from his hometown."

Song Hu and Zhao Laibao didn't speak, they both nodded in agreement.

Li Rupei looked at everyone and spoke again.

"What the master and Huang Biao said makes sense, Song Hu and Zhao Laibao probably think the same way, but I want to remind you that four months ago, Liu Di led the Ya Army to attack the cottage, at that time, everyone thought of the fate of the Iron Blood Army, two months ago, the Yawai Army and the Outer Town Soldiers came to encircle and suppress the Iron Blood Army, a full 3,000 people, everyone could not imagine that the Iron Blood Army would take the initiative to attack, but the brothers persevered, all won the victory, and the Iron Blood Army was able to quickly expand and grow."

"Occupying Wuling County and Qingyuan County does have huge risks, these dangers, I have thought of them, Lu Yanhong may ignore a qiē attack, in a vain attempt to exterminate the Iron Army, the Iron Blood Army will be under unprecedented pressure, but continue to stay in the valley, and the Iron Blood Army has no way out."

"Lu Yanhong is recruiting sergeants in Liangzhou to expand his strength, two months have passed, he didn't think of attacking the Iron Army, but will he ignore the Iron Army's survival, Lu Yanhong can recruit sergeants on a large scale, and can expand his strength, it is precisely because of the Iron Army's survival that he has a reason to recruit sergeants, once the opportunity is right, Lu Yanhong will also send a large army to attack, thinking that he can completely wipe out the Iron Army, so the Iron Blood Army will have to face a bloody battle sooner or later."

"Lu Yanhong seized the opportunity to exhibit, the iron-blooded army must seize the opportunity, a certain has already said, the valley is too small, not conducive to the exhibition of the iron-blooded army, you are welcome, if the iron-blooded army is always curled up in the valley and does not fight out, it will always be bandits, whether it is the government or the common people, they will not recognize the iron-blooded army."

"The food and grass of the Iron Blood Army, there is no problem to spend this autumn and winter season, but what to do next year, does it always need to be looted to solve it, so what is the difference between the Iron Blood Army and the bandits."

After Li Rupei said these words, everyone was silent, they had never considered these problems, what they thought about was to train the sergeants and make the iron-blooded army stronger, as for what to do in the future, Li Lang would definitely be able to think of a way.

"I said a long time ago that there is no zài in the cottage, only the iron-blooded army, what does this mean, that is, the brothers are not bandits from now on, they are sergeants, after the brothers leave the valley and enter the city, they must not continue to engage in looting, no matter how difficult they are, everyone is a soldier, and they need to use an upright way to solve the dilemma."

Li Rupei's decision will not be objected to, everyone will follow it, and why it is done, Li Rupei has explained it very clearly, and the rest is to clarify the reason among the sergeants.

At present, the most critical thing is the task of annihilating the 1,200 tooth army passing through Guanzhuang Town.

The sand table is already set.

Li Rupei walked to the front of the sand table, Gao Chibang and others also came over, on the sand table, the flag had already been placed, according to the convention, the white flag represents the enemy army, and the red flag represents the iron-blooded army.

"What is the combat effectiveness of the tooth army, I don't want to say more, you all know, so this time the attack, the iron-blooded army will do its best, the iron-blooded army occupies three major advantages, the first is the advantage of terrain, the second is the advantage of numbers, and the third is the advantage of preparation, with these three advantages, the battle will definitely be able to win."

"The attack is divided into three steps, the first step is the attack of the crossbow team, Song Hu is responsible, the second step is the attack of the cavalry team, Huang Biao is in charge, the third step is the attack of the infantry team, Zhao Laibao is in charge, the whole battle, please master is responsible for commanding."

"The requirements of the battle are exactly the same as the last time, they must all be annihilated, and the enemy cannot be allowed to escape, if that happens, it will be a failure of the battle, and the specific planning and attack will be decided by the master." ……

The atmosphere in the valley quickly became tense.

There is a lot of preparation work that needs to be done, if it is just to exterminate the 1,200 tooth army passing through Guanzhuang Town, there is no need to make too many preparations, the key is that after the battle, the iron-blooded army will leave the valley to attack and occupy Wuling County and Qingyuan County, which requires a lot of preparations, just the transfer of grain and grass, it will take a long time to be busy.

At this time, Li Rupei seemed to be very leisurely, and Gao Chibang was responsible for the overall matters, involving these specific things, Li Rupei would not ask, he needed to consider the overall deployment, for example, after occupying Wuling County and Qingyuan County, how the Iron Blood Army would gain a foothold, how to show, how to confront Lu Yanhong's attack, and so on.

In the next day or so, Li Rupei wandered around all parts of the valley, and was about to leave here, his heart was quite touched, he suddenly encountered a catastrophe, and almost didn't react, but fortunately, he was a traverser, and it didn't matter what he thought about the world, and he chose to enter the cottage under the urgency of the situation, and fell into the grass, after a series of thrilling struggles, he controlled the cottage, and had his own strength, as a traverser who was familiar with the history exhibition, if he couldn't seize an opportunity, If you can't make an earth-shattering career, you really can't say it.
