Chapter 1255: Calm Before the War
Niu Jinbao looked at Zhao Jin, who was still concentrating on martial arts, and said in a low voice: "This is the martial art of killing, this is the real ability, no matter how fancy you are, it is nothing more than a stab and a slash, if you practice these well, you will be able to walk the world, and the rest is nothing more than the experience of facing the enemy." β
The guards all seemed to believe it or not, Niu Jinbao did not continue to explain, the battle and practice will make these guards realize this, Niu Jinbao himself figured it out when he was by Zhao Jin's side, martial arts and combat skills should be pure, tempered, and then alert and focused, which is almost enough.
The sound of the small drum sounded in the camp of the Zhao family, this sound will not be transmitted outside the camp, the drummer will beat the drum and go to every part of the camp, and the various companies that hear this sound will immediately get up and start preparing, before this, the man has already lit a fire to cook.
Hearing this small drum sound, Zhao Jin gathered his momentum and stood still, the guards handed hand towels to wipe their sweat, Zhao Jin wiped it a few times after taking it, and walked towards the military tent in silence, Niu Jinbao hurriedly followed.
"Isn't it too strange that the big war is approaching, but I don't have the slightest fear or nervousness, but I always think about the past and the future." While eating breakfast, Zhao Jin said to Niu Jinbao casually.
"The lord didn't take the officers and soldiers on the other side in his eyes, and he was sure in his heart, so he was so relaxed." Niu Jinbao replied with a smile.
"Summons the deputy and above of the group to come to my side to discuss matters." Zhao Jin did not continue the topic and gave the order directly.
At this time, you can already hear the sound of drums and horns from the direction of Jinghai County, the big battle is imminent, the officers and troops also have to get up very early, the movements of the city side are reported one by one, the gate of Jinghai County is opened much earlier than usual, you can see the soldiers and horses in the city pulling out, there is no way to arrange too many troops on the east side near the canal, and it can already be seen that the west side of the enemy army is one of the key points.
With the collection of news one by one, the leading officers of all brigades and regiments rushed to Zhao Jin's side, they ate earlier than the soldiers, just to host and arrange, Zhao Jin looked at his partners and subordinates, some looked calm and solemn, while some were excited, and some looked indifferent, but the circles under their eyes were a little dark, and it was obvious that they didn't sleep well last night.
The excitement before the big war will make people unable to sleep, this Zhao Jin has experienced many times, and many of the brigade and regiment troops brought out this time have not participated in such a large-scale battle, and it is inevitable that there will be this reaction.
"Before we came to Jinghai County, this side is less than seventy miles away from the Shuntian Mansion realm, if we are allowed to enter the Shuntian Mansion and threaten the capital, I am afraid that the Governor and the Lord General who led the troops and related people will be arrested and imprisoned, so they will definitely fight us." Zhao Jin first opened the case.
The generals nodded, although the enemy was outnumbered, but the most worried about the officers and soldiers at all levels of the Zhao family army was that the officers and soldiers avoided fighting or fled, and when they heard Zhao Jin's analysis, all the generals were relieved, but if this relaxation was known to the officers and soldiers, I really don't know what they would think.
"Since you want to fight, it's not complicated and fancy, there are nearly 80,000 officers and soldiers, except for the strength of the palace to defend the city, I'm afraid that the others will pour out, maybe they will do something to encircle on three sides, or what they will do to lure the enemy deeper, let them do it, let him do a thousand tricks, we are just going all the way!" Zhao Jin said in a deep voice.
Zhao Jin knocked on the temporary sand table with his hand, and said: "It's easy to win, but what we have to do is to annihilate the enemy as much as possible, and then we have to train our soldiers, it was okay back then, the soldiers who have enlisted in the army have been trained very hard in recent years, but they have not experienced any actual combat, a battle is fought, there are often spears that do not see blood, such soldiers can only fight with the wind, if it is easy to collapse when it is difficult, today's battle is a good opportunity to exercise." β
The expressions of everyone in the military tent began to become cautious, and Zhao Jin said again: "Let our soldiers press over, kill the enemy with real knives and real guns, and let the officers and soldiers know that we are not only relying on artillery and firearms, in today's battle, the second brigade is in the front, the first regiment of the personal guard brigade guards the right wing, the first brigade guards the left wing, and all brigades are equipped with artillery and mounted sergeants under my command." β
"Big brother, can't you use the firecracker?" Shi Man asked in a muffled voice.
Zhao Jin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Naturally, it is necessary to use it, and winning and winning is the first, but you are going to control the proportions of the battle, and give the soldiers below more training to kill the enemy, do you think that today is a hard battle?" β
The originally solemn and solemn atmosphere relaxed suddenly, but Chen Sheng said solemnly: "Fighting again and again, the enemy army has been defeated again and again, Wenxiang teaches those local tyrants to know that the new army is coming out, will the Ming court do the same, everyone don't just slack off when they see us winning a hundred battles, if you relax a little, it will be a dangerous disaster!" β
Chen Sheng's words made everyone thoughtful, Zhao Jin nodded approvingly, but said: "Why can the Wenxiang Sect train the new army, because they only have Xu Hongru to give orders and can immediately implement it, but the Ming court can't do it, what the emperor wants to do, the people below may not be willing to do it, the eunuch party has a mind, Donglin has a mind, and the other factions have their own minds, and they can't be implemented, and the new army can be trained there." β
All the people in the house are the core of the Zhao family's army, and naturally know many details of the defeat of the Wenxiang Sect, the Wenxiang Sect risked being exposed to buy a large amount of food in Xuzhou, and transferred young and strong, and also collected the Zhao family's scattered group training, which only trained thousands of people, for the Zhao family's army was an easy process, but the Wenxiang Sect was full of all its strength, almost hurting the vitality.
But because the Wenxiang sect regards Xu Hongru as a true god and true Buddha, Xu Hongru has enough control to do such a big thing, but the Ming court is difficult, all parties are constrained, what to do is to discuss right and wrong first, first see what profits and losses are there for their faction, and then carry the ancestral family law and sages to compete, so that nothing can be done, even if there is the power of the country, but there is no way to mobilize all.
"After this battle, if the imperial court doesn't practice, I'm afraid that others will have to practice, but it's not a problem to leave a few years later than us!" Zhao Jin made a judgment.
Seeing that everyone was attentive, Zhao Jin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go back to the camp and prepare as a team, now is not the time for class, I just said the measure, I will tell you the bottom line, this time I want to win, I want to win, and I want to win a big victory, and I want to annihilate and kill the enemy as much as possible, understand?" β
"The last general obeys!" Neat answers came from below, and they dispersed.
The others left, but Chen Sheng was one step behind, Niu Jinbao and the guards also retreated with interest, and when there were only two people left in the military tent, Chen Sheng opened his mouth and asked, "Are you willing to let the sons and daughters die?" β
"We've been playing too smoothly, and now we're reluctant, I'm afraid that we'll suffer a big loss in the future." Zhao Jin replied in a sullen voice, the current brigade teams of the Zhao family's army, the spear sergeants are too well protected by firecrackers and artillery, and then the officers and soldiers are too weak except for the cavalry, and there is no chance to take the exam at all.
"If it goes on like this, our soldiers will be accustomed to not receiving the enemy's victory, if the enemy can come to the front and need hand-to-hand combat, it is easy to collapse without support, this time the brigades and regiments gathered, the reinforcement regiment below and the three or four regiments of each brigade, their soldiers are obviously stronger than the main regiment, because what, it is not that there is no firearm to cover it, and it is necessary to rely on spears to kill the enemy!" Zhao Jin spoke his judgment.
Chen Sheng nodded and said in a deep voice: "You're right, they can be regarded as spoiled, but we also require victory first, and we must not take risks in child's play." β
"Don't worry, I can tell the difference." Zhao Jin said with a smile, Chen Sheng doesn't say much, but he is never ambiguous in the details of these rules, he is a standard direct minister, Zhao Jin only appreciates and appreciates him, and in the current Zhao Jiajun team, what is most needed is Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhao Jin again, Zhao Jin hesitated, and asked slowly: "Dasheng, do you think I look like an emperor?" β
This question made Chen Sheng stunned, silent for a moment, and then said: "Before you asked, I often thought so, I thought you should be, but I felt a little different, and then I figured out why, you are only in your early twenties, too young, and you were not born in the royal family, or you fought the world yourself, I always feel untrue." β
"You are really telling the truth, I think so too, I often ask myself, do you want to be an emperor at such a young age? But if you say it today, I have figured it out, what our brothers have done is a groundbreaking thing, how can it be the same as before, the rules of the past are not the rules, what we do is! Zhao Jin smiled happily.
Chen Sheng nodded heavily and said, "What do you want to do, you just lead the group, and the brothers listen to you!" β
************
When the day was bright, the roaring drums sounded inside and outside the city of Jinghai County, and in the sound of war drums, the heads of the various battalions of the officers and soldiers inside and outside the city began to prepare in the south of the city and other positions according to the discussion of the superintendent and the chief generals last night.
The movement of the officers and soldiers was even heard very clearly in the camp of the Zhao family's army, and each regiment could only hear the drums and trumpets of its own regiment, and the farther away were covered by this noisy noise, but the diligent and unremitting training in ordinary times was enough for the soldiers to move in a neat array, and they could not hear the sound clearly, and there were flags to follow.
When the soldiers and horses on both sides can't stop going out of the camp and out of the city, their light cavalry has already run to the front of the battle to go around, looking for an opportunity to harass the enemy formation, and take the opportunity to observe the enemy's situation.
Xuanfu, Jizhen and Shanxi have a lot of elite cavalry, and there are also remnants of Eryang, at this time, they are all holding back their strength to show themselves in front of the soldiers and horses of other towns, and they also want to find back the field for the losses they suffered before, they not only provoked with words, but even rode close to the main formation of the Zhao family's army, and then turned around when they were close to the range of firearms bows and arrows, which caused a burst of applause from the team-
