Chapter 56 Ambition is not old

readx; Li Chang threw the firewood into the stove and sighed: "Tofu is not so difficult to make, the tofu you made the day before yesterday is already very delicious tofu, why should the general continue?" That's not what you're supposed to do. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Yun Zheng used a big shovel to stir the soy milk in the iron pot, and replied indifferently: "The most indifferent person in an army is actually the main general, what strategy, what courage, what force these are actually not important, these things play a role in the end to calm the morale of the army." There are only a few tactics of war, which have been played rotten by our ancestors for thousands of years, who is smarter than whom!

I may be smarter than one or two people, or smarter than a thousand, but I will never be smarter than more than forty thousand people combined, and I don't need to do anything more, as long as the whole army can feel at ease when they see me.

As long as the soldiers think that I will not have bad ideas, will not run away when they are fighting with the enemy, and will not covet the credit they have earned in exchange for their lives, they will be able to win many battles spontaneously, no matter how hard the war is, as long as they look back and see that the main general is still watching the battlefield under the banner, they can still grit their teeth and persevere.

And persistence is the key to victory in most battles, so ah, a general with a wise name but lazy behavior is the greatest help to the soldiers, responsible for specific things are officers, exercise the power of rewards and punishments are military judges, as for the person who commands the army to kill the enemy when facing the enemy, it is actually the team officer, and finally goes to the battlefield to fight face-to-face? The general only needs to give the order to attack or retreat at the right time, and there are too many things to do. Too miscellaneous is not beautiful. ”

Li Chang got up and bowed his hand to show that he was taught, Yun Zheng smiled again: "I can use this method, you must not put it on yourself, there is a premise for me to do this, this method is not suitable for all armies, it can only be used when there is no gap between the master and his subordinates, if you use it in the future, don't blame me if your subordinates run out as a result." ”

Li Chang shook his head and said: "I can't be the main general, I still have this self-knowledge, after the end of this battle, I Li Chang will have no problem becoming a qualified supervisor, and I will not back down on what I should be in charge of." I'm not going to interfere with things I shouldn't be in charge of. It is my greatest responsibility to straighten out the trust between the general and the imperial court. ”

Yun Zheng was silent for a while, and finally put down the shovel and arched his hand: "Thank you!" ”

Li Chang continued: "The general is far away from the Jingshi, which is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and things on the battlefield are ever-changing, and sometimes the decisions made by the general may not be in line with the opinions of the imperial city. What's more, the general commanded the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and he was in a high position and power. If it is said that Jingshi is defenseless, no one believes it. At this time, as a supervisor of the army, one won the trust of the emperor, and the other won the trust of the general, which was the best intermediary. If the general has something unspeakable, he might as well let the supervising army do it, and the effect will definitely be better than the general's own words. ”

Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Abandoning Qin Wangchuan is an order given by me, the main general, Your Majesty said that Fu Bi died in Qin Wangchuan, I am only worried that the princes of the court do not understand our will to abandon Qin Wangchuan." ”

Li Chang smiled and said: "The general's mind is not in the little Qin Wangchuan, let alone the person who didn't hide the false Pang, or even in the Western Xia people, I don't know if my guess is right?" ”

Yun Zheng laughed and said, "See? ”

"You're doing it so obviously, wouldn't I be a fool if I couldn't see it anymore? After the battle of Ranshipo, if you lead the army to Qinwangchuan, the time is too late, but you have no intention of going to Qinwangchuan from the beginning of the war, the grain on Chencang Road is like a mountain, and you are eating beans with everyone, and the military food accounts transported from Shuzhong are all reviewed by me, if you do not hide the false Pang as you said, it will definitely return to the Xixia River Valley, and Qinzhou does not need to make such full preparations.

Build a high wall and accumulate food This is your preparation for a protracted war, I just don't understand, who are you going to deal with? I can't tell the court if I don't make it clear. ”

Yun Zheng picked up a tree branch and randomly drew a simple map on the ground, marking the names on several obvious geographical locations so that Li Chang could see it clearly.

Finally, he drew a few arrows on it, took firewood and lit the map: "Show the enemy to be weak, Fubi must retreat, how can it mean that we are exhausted if we don't return?"

The Qinzhou army suffered heavy losses this time, and almost half of the losses were lost according to Fu Bixin, which is the real situation, more than 20,000 soldiers spilled their blood on the battlefield, and only exchanged for the heads of more than 40,000 Xixia people, and this transaction was a loss anyway.

I still have 100,000 mercenaries now, and it stands to reason that I still have the power to fight, but I just want to let the anger of this battle be vented on others.

The purpose of my coming to Qinzhou is for the Hehuang land, this idea has never changed, even if the whole army of Fubi is annihilated, I will also try to plot the Hehuang land, with the Hehuang land of the Great Song Dynasty can be regarded as having the ability to dominate the world, dying a Fubi is really nothing, if necessary, I will die is not a problem, but unfortunately the princes in the court only want not to seek merit but to seek no fault, and gave a death order to me to stick to Qinzhou.

If I hadn't made a mistake by hiding the false Pang, if it wasn't for greed that I sent Zhang Zhi to attack Chen Cangdao, my life would have been even more difficult, and now with Zhang Zhi's candle, I can finally give an explanation to the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.

Lao Li, I was born a donkey, I won't stop if I don't achieve my goal, even if the process is bloody and cruel, I don't care, the Great Song Dynasty wants to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, and there is no hope if I don't take the Hehuang land, if the Hehuang land falls into the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, we can control Qingtang from afar, establish a knot in Longyou, and form a situation of encirclement of the Western Xia in the region, so that the Hengshan defense line of the Western Xia becomes an ornament, and the eight hundred miles of Hanhai in Xingqing Mansion become a joke, for which Di Shuai and I have studied for a whole year, you can talk about it, How could I pass up such a godsend? ”

Li Chang frowned and said, "Where is the opportunity?" Although he has suffered a big loss, his muscles and bones are still ......."

"His muscles and bones can not be preserved for a few days, Dong Yu, and Qingyi Jie Ghost Zhang, these two people are the most beneficial, the Xixia people have been wreaking havoc on the land of Qingtang for more than three months, and the losses caused to Qingtang are not small, Dong Yu has become the new master of Qingtang, not benefiting the people, but letting people run around, which is a great blow to his prestige, Qingtang's political system is not a whole like my Great Song Dynasty, they are a tribe, a tribal union, Jiaoguo Luo relied on strong force to pinch these tribes together, When something happens, these tribes fall apart, and there is no loyalty to speak of.

For the sake of Qingtang's future, and even for Dong Yu's own power, he must also wage war against the Western Xia people who have been greatly weakened, this reason is not for him, since he has been sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight for so long, how can he explain to those tribes who have suffered heavy losses if he doesn't pick up a dead tiger and go back?

Lao Li, from now on, it will be our turn to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”

Li Chang nodded happily and said that he knew how to report the battle situation in Qinzhou to the emperor, and when he saw that the soy milk was already boiled, he scooped it out of the cauldron and poured it into a large wooden barrel, these days, he has been very accustomed to this kind of work.

He doesn't care if it's a cheap servant, he only cares who he works with, just like carrying water in Tokyo at the beginning of spring, no one feels that it is a humiliation, and it is more of an honor to work with the emperor.

In the same way, the general is grinding beans, and it has become an elegant interest for him, the prison army, to cook soy milk.

As the gypsum water was slowly poured into the soybean milk bucket, the pale yellow soybean milk immediately reacted, and quickly solidified from the milky form, this is the tender tofu, both of them have lost interest in eating tofu flowers, and they have been tired of eating them for the past few days.

Scoop the tofu brain into a wooden frame lined with burlap with a big spoon, then wrap the tofu brain tightly with a cloth, and finally cover a wooden sign, press a large stone on the wooden raft, and look at the large amount of water dripping out of the gap in the wooden frame, then stop what you are doing, and start to sit on the edge of the small table and drink, like two farmers who have just finished their work and treated themselves......

After Fu Bi left Qin Wangchuan, he left in a hurry, not because he was worried that he would chase after him, but because he wanted to see Yun Zheng as soon as possible, and ask him face to face why he had such an abnormal behavior, he would not believe that Yun Zheng had the idea of killing him no matter what.

But he led the army to fight hard in Qin Wangchuan, and suffered countless casualties, no matter what the purpose, Yun Zheng must give a reasonable answer to the soldiers of the Qinzhou army who died in the battle, otherwise he would not let this person go.

Only walked out of less than thirty miles and climbed up to Jinchengling, and when I turned around, I saw thick smoke rising from Qinwangchuan Dazhai, which seemed to have just been ravaged by gunpowder, this should be Jia Kui's trap launched, now I don't need to care about Jia Kui, his subordinates are all cavalry, and they will catch up soon.

Xiaoluomen Village is still not moving, it is estimated that Jia Kui has placed a trap there again, such an obvious trap does not know if Pang will be fooled if he does not hide it, all the gunpowder in the Qinzhou army is there, and it cannot be left to the Xixia people.

Turning over the mountain range, Fu Bi continued to lead the troops forward, and suddenly heard a series of muffled thunder faintly from the side of the mountain, this is the gunpowder of Xiaoluomen Village exploded, he was stunned for a moment, an obvious trap to the extreme, if you don't hide it, you will be fooled?

Shaking his head to shake off this strange thought, he ran wildly along the main road towards Qinzhou, at this time, none of the soldiers thought that there was anything wrong with marching at full speed, and the farther away from the flesh mill of Qinwangchuan, the better.

A team of cavalry came to greet him at the foot of Jincheng Ridge, Fu Bi looked the young man led by him up and down, frowned and said, "You are the young army that Yun Zheng built with all his heart?" Why are they all half-grown boys? ”

The tiger stepped forward and saluted, then stood up straight and said, "Ambition is not in the old age!" (To be continued......)
