——

For two or three days in a row, the fog lifted and dispersed, and there was no sunny weather.

On this day, Deng She inspected the camps and came to Lu Qianxi's camp. As far as the cavalry is concerned, horses are more delicate than people, and the weather is cold, so they must pay attention to the maintenance of military horses. In this way, as long as there is a war, it can be pulled out at any time.

At this time, there are a hundred and ten horses in the circle, either walking or running, with different postures, from time to time raising their heads and neighing, and in the cold fog, the gasping white gas is steaming. Deng She stood on the sidelines and watched with great interest, accompanied by Lu Qian12 and others, all of whom were masters, each pointing and commenting on the advantages and disadvantages.

One of them was led by two soldiers and walked slowly along the side. Lu Qianshi pointed and said, "General, please look at this horse, the horse's belly is small and firm, and the buttocks are big and solid." He was triumphant, "A woman with a big ass gives birth to a boy, and a horse with a big ass is good at running and working hard,...... A rare good horse. ”

Everyone couldn't help laughing, but when Deng She looked at it, he recognized that it was Lu Qianxi's mount. Lu Qianwu said with a smile: "Mrs. Wang sells melons and boasts about herself. ”

Because they have been active in Liaodong and Saiwai for a long time, and the weather is cold, most of the horses in the army are cold-resistant Mongolian horses and Hequ horses, some of which are obtained from the Mongolian pastures they pass along the way, and some of which are captured from the enemy. These two horses are not good at short sprints, but they have a unique advantage in long distances.

Lu Qianxi's mount is a kind of Mongolian horse, produced in the area of Chifeng Baichagou, known as the Baicha Iron Hoof Horse, climbing the mountain and overcoming obstacles dexterously and agilely, he praised it as a "good horse", but it is not bad.

Everyone talked and laughed, and it was a rare moment of relaxation. An officer hurriedly ran over and said, "Report to the general, the champion surnamed Wang is here again." "Wang Zongzhe, the champion Lang, has been running back and forth a lot in the past few days. Pan Cheng sent many messengers to urge rescue, and he was one of them.

Tong Shengyang said: "The fog has not dissipated, how to rescue?" Why bother the general with such a trivial matter, the old words will reply to him. ”

Deng She was cautious, especially attentive to details, and did not want to be taken by others in small matters, so he stopped the officer, muttered for a moment, and said, "Wait. …… First invite him into the marshal's mansion and wait for me for a while, and then say that I have something to do and am busy. When you're done, we'll see you in a while. ”

The officer went in a hurry.

Lu Qianwu frowned and said, "General, Pan Pingzhang sent six messengers in three days, and the war in Guangning is probably getting tighter and tighter. ”

Tong Shengyang said: "General Yang sent a military report, saying that he had been ordered, and retreated thirty miles, watching quietly. If you don't come to fight him, you just storm the city. Earlier, the Tartars were camping outside Quang Ninh City, and Lao Pan's military horses were consumed a lot. The general, in the opinion of the last general, will not be able to get out in seven or eight days, and the city of Quang Ninh will be broken. ”

He is different from Lu Qianwu.

After all, Lu Qianwu was born in a red scarf in Liaodong, and he is also an old man, and when he talks about Pan Chenglai, it is inevitable that he will be called a plain chapter, and the meaning of his words is vague. Tong Shengyang doesn't have this scruples, who does he know Pan Cheng? Since Deng She's wine banquet and dancing knife a few days ago, they understood Deng She's intentions, so he spoke straightforwardly.

Deng She didn't have the heart to look at the military horse, he turned around and moved his body twice, slightly warmer. He asked, "How much grain and grass has been sent by Yizhou?" ”

Wuping and Huihe did not have much grain in stock, especially Wuping, who also abandoned the city and fled before burning the city's warehouse. The food brought by the cavalry was exhausted, but fortunately, Yiju was in hand and could be used as a transit station. Since the capture of Yizhou, Zhao Guo began to allocate Liaozuo's grain storage and sent it all the way.

"It's enough for our army to take men and horses for five days."

Speaking of Mongolian horses are resistant to rough feeding, but in cold weather, it is the time to use horses, rough feeding can not only feed some bean skins, bean stalks, easy to indigestion, must have grass cakes, refined beans. A horse's daily needs were a dozen pounds, which was a lot of money, and with the rations of the soldiers, it was even greater.

Therefore, Zhao Guo hurriedly transferred the baggage vehicles and transported them twice, which was only enough for the whole army and horses for five days.

"......, five days." Dunshe looked back at the horses in the circle and walked out. He pondered in his heart, pinched his fingers and calculated as he walked, and after a while, he asked: "Daning Shijiabao, the remnants of Zhang Jujing in Xingzhong Prefecture, and the surrounding green army, have there been any movements in the past two days?" ”

"Daning and the Qingjun are not very abnormal. The remnants of Zhang Jujing in Xingzhong Prefecture went out of the city two days ago, some went to Daning, and some went to the south. According to the general's order, those who went to the south did not care, and those who went to Daning had their own Hui and our army go out of the city to intercept and annihilate them. ”

Deng She did not take Daning, but he did not want Daning to rest and recuperate, so he sent a lot of cavalry to harass him often, and issued a death order that only allowed to go out and not enter. Not only the remnants of Zhang Jujing in Xingzhong Prefecture, but also the Qing Army around Daning, which had some signs of large-scale assembly and reinforcements a few days ago, were ruthlessly cleaned up twice and suddenly died down.

Deng She nodded and said, "Summoning Huihe, reward wine, meat and silver coins as a reward." Tell them that they must not let their guard down, but a soldier has entered Daning City and raised his head to meet him. ”

Tong Shengyang obeyed the order. After talking about this matter, Bi Qianniu brought up another topic, and he said: "So that the general can know that General Li of Yizhou has sent a military newspaper to talk about the grain and grass delivery in the past few days. The Sichuan Tartars have increased their troops, and they are a little ready to move, as if they are trying to rob my grain route. ”

Deng She paused slightly, and then continued on his way.

Historically, the soldiers have been fighting wars, and the grain road has been the top priority, and the records in the history books are endless because of the loss of the grain route and the loss of grain and grass and the destruction of the whole army. Nachuan Prefecture is located between Yiju and Wuping, and if you look at it from the location alone, it can be called the best place to rob the grain road.

Dunshe listened, and was not surprised. It's just that the best place doesn't mean you have the ability. He smiled slightly and said: "The main force of the Tartars is all in Guangning, and although there are additional troops in Sichuanzhou, there are not many of them. It can't protect itself, and dares to rob my grain road, but won't it kill itself? ”

After turning a corner along the road in the camp, Deng She did not go out of the gate to return to the Shuaifu, and folded into Lu Qianxi's big tent.

"Hang up the map."

When he came, he sat on the throne of the great tent, and ordered the map to be hung up, and the people took their places. Lu Qianshi did his best to be a landlord, and served tea to the soldiers with a stack of voices. Deng She stopped, waved his hand to retreat the guards, and asked Bi Qianniu to personally lead people to guard the surroundings, and no one was allowed within 100 meters.

As soon as the generals saw this posture, they immediately understood that Deng She was going to hold a military meeting.

Quang Ninh is fighting in full swing, but this side is not moving. The pride of "Hu No Man" still echoes in the ears, and the joy of several cities in Liankeyi Prefecture has created proud soldiers. Everyone couldn't hold back for a long time, looking at each other, their belligerent eyes burning, even if they were steady, they couldn't help but be faintly excited.

Deng She's three-day truce not only raised the physical strength of the men and horses, but also sharpened the generals' desire to fight. Momentum, in addition to being used on the enemy, can also be used on one's own people. First and then again, it is better to send generals than to provoke generals, which is a model for use.

"How many days has our army been sitting and watching?"

"Three days."

"How many miles did Yang Wanhu's troops retreat in total?"

"Ninety miles."

"Thirty miles is a house; Ninety miles, the land of three houses. In the past, Duke Wen of Jin fought with the King of Chu and met the Central Plains, but he only retreated. Although Pan Pingzhang reported six times in three days, our garrison in Wuping risked the danger of robbing our grain route in Sichuan Prefecture and did not move for three days. Although the battle in Guangning was fierce, and the moon was first won near the water, I retreated ninety miles without a fight, everyone, if you are replaced, what will you think? ”

"I must think that the general will watch from the wall, and I will wait for him to distinguish the victory and defeat, and the fishermen of our army will benefit."

Deng Sheti approached the map, pointed to the mountains and rivers on the map, and said: "I share the same vein with Pan Pingzhang and call the same palace ministers, how can I do this idea?" If he really thinks so, it's a pity that he has the heart of a villain! ”

Perhaps he has gained a lot from reading history recently, and he has made considerable progress in the word "city government". Perhaps his caution has become a habit, and he refuses to tell the truth in front of the generals of the headquarters. Anyway, as Tong Shengyang said, he did fight the heart of "fisherman profits", but the sky is not beautiful.

It took only seven or eight days to transport only enough grain for five days, and the war in Quang Ninh could not be ended in a short period of time. As for the second reason, he looked up at the fog outside the tent.

The white fog is clear, and the gray fog is rainy.

From last night to today, the fog has been gray. This agricultural proverb summed up for thousands of years, not to say that it is nine out of ten, at least sixty percent accurate. Deng She was a little worried, he was alone, there was not much food and grass, and if he encountered a heavy snow like a few days ago, he would lack food and clothing, and he would definitely die.

It is difficult to transport grain, and there is no land advantage; The weather is subject to change, and there is no time of day. If there was only one of the two, he could wait. But now neither is certain, and it is very likely that it will go in a bad direction, and the variables are too great to be acceptable to him, and he has to change his choice and make a choice.

The generals listened to his words, and Lu Qianwu fell to the ground one by one: "The general is loyal and righteous, comparable to the sun and the moon." reminded everyone, and hurriedly bowed down together: "The general is loyal and righteous, comparable to the sun and the moon." After finishing speaking, he got up, and Tong Shengyang asked, "Then, how does our army act?" ”

Deng She pointed the scabbard in his hand, pointed in the direction of Yizhou, and said, "The Tartars want to rob me of the grain road?" I've been robbing him of his grain for a long time! ”

After the Yuan army besieged Guangning, the location of the grain was moved to Yizhou, and the Wei Sijian was responsible for the conquest and transportation, and at the same time the army was brought in to take care of it. Wuping is two hundred and forty or fifty miles away from Yizhou, passing through two large rivers in the middle, and is blocked by mountains. However, the river is frozen, and the mountains can be bypassed, the only problem is that Yizhou is the rear of the Yuan army, and there are military horses stationed along the line for hundreds of miles, and it is very difficult to enter silently.

Lu Qianxi asked, "Is the general planning to attack hard?" ”

Deng She smiled and didn't answer, not to mention how to get in, just transfer troops and send generals, he said: "Lu Qianxi." ”

"The end will be."

"You lead an army of 3,000 and burn the Tartar grain and grass." Burning grain and grass was the first step, Deng She looked around at the generals, and then arranged the second step, he named Tong Shengyang. Tong Shengyang strode forward, and Deng She said: "After General Lu burns the Tartar grain and grass, the main force of the Tartar will be chaotic. With you leading an army of 3,000, take advantage of the situation to capture Sichuanzhou, and form a line with my Yizhou and Wuping, and not let a single Tartar escape into Liaoxi. ”

Tong Shengyang took the order.

Burning grain and grass is to disturb the enemy's morale, and defending Liaoxi is to block the enemy's retreat. The next step is to take the initiative. Deng She said: "Send messengers to Yang Wanhu and Li Monks, and after the Tartars are in civil strife, they will immediately lead the army to outflank and pursue, and not let a Tartar escape into Liaozuo."

"As for the western direction, I will lead 10,000 cavalry myself, intercept and divide, and annihilate each one. Where are Lu Qianwu and Liu Yang? ”

"The end will be."

"The two of you are with me, Liu Yang can be the vanguard, and Lu Qianwu's firearms battalion will be my Chinese army." After a few words were distributed, everyone returned to the camp to prepare, and Deng She left Lu Qianshi and Bi Qianniu alone. left Lu Qianxi, in order to teach him how to get into Yizhou; Leaving Bi Qianniu behind, but for another big thing.

Deng She whispered and explained separately, and the two of them understood. The non-tent soldier came to report: "Pan Pingzhang's messenger urged the general to meet three times and twice." ”

If this battle goes well, the Yuan army in Liaodong will be wiped out, and the staggered trend of dogs and teeth will become a full three.

A point of Liaoyang, not to mention it for the time being. A point of Guangning, Guangning and Nangjia have been fighting for many days, the former more than a dozen states and counties, now only two cities of Guangning and Luyang remain, in terms of strength, it has long been inferior to Deng She. I can't bear Pan Cheng's title of Pingzhang, and for the sake of post-war considerations, I need to deal with it well.

Deng She raised his sleeves, raised his knife and said: "Pass my word, please don't be impatient, Ben will go to meet with him." Before he walked out of the tent, he glanced at a corner of the map behind him, on the light yellow paper, two bright red characters. Three points of Liaodong's third point: Shenyang.

Outside the city of Shenyang, Naha came out of the prancing horse and whipped up.

When the fog dissipated, he tentatively made two attacks, and the combat strength of the Liaoyang Goryeo battalion was slightly weaker, but there was an experienced Qing Qianxing sitting in the formation, and the defense was not leaky. The two of them can be described as chess opponents, and they will meet good talents, and neither of them takes advantage of anyone.

The vanguard officer Liu Tanma Chi returned from the front line and reported in detail the reality of Qing Qianxing's subordinate troops, and it was clear that there were less than 20,000 troops and horses outside the city in Liaoyang City. Naha took advantage of the space when the fog gathered and dispersed, and ordered 50,000 troops, exhausting the elite of his headquarters. This battle is bound to be won.

1. Practice running.

"The training of horses involves not only the usual diet and rearing, but also other things. Such as climbing and brat. …… Another example is to control horses, by controlling the foals to drink water and eat grass, to remove their fat, and to paste polyester on their backs. …… In addition, there are also hunting, bunging, running and other training.
