As long as this military general is okay on weekdays, and he doesn't have a stalemate with his colleagues, he can't even ask questions, you are a civil official, and there are hundreds of ten guards around you, how can you move if you want to move against a military general who holds a large army.

Now everyone is just maintaining the polite number on the surface, if you want to drive the soldiers and horses, you can only discuss it, there is no way to want more, there is a thought that is always pestering Wang Zaijin, that is, what can Sun Chengzong, who impeached and removed from office, do in Liaodong, those generals in Liaoxi eat empty quotas and drink the blood of soldiers It is a good skill, but expecting them to fight is a joke.

Sometimes Wang Zaijin thinks in private, why the eunuch party commands the soldiers and horses like an arm, and those vulgar generals are also willing to serve, the reason is also very simple, the eunuch party is willing to give benefits, as long as you do things, the silver and official positions can be given, but Wenchen can't do this, and feel that everything is taken for granted, according to the rules, it should be so, not to mention why do you vulgar warriors ask so much

The generals below naturally didn't know the emotion in the heart of the superintendent Wang Zaijin, Wang Zaijin accepted the affection, and said cautiously: "Although our army will win, the thieves will be defeated, but after all, it is a fierce battle of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and there is not much shortage of grain and grass for each other. ”

Hearing this, all the generals below nodded in agreement, looking at everyone's attitude, Wang Zaijin frowned, his face was unhappy, but he had been a superintendent, and the cultivation of the city government had long been far beyond ordinary people, and then his expression was as usual.

The Xuzhou thieves are a lone army deep into the territory of Beizhili, there is still a distance between the army and the Linqing camp, and it is the best policy to send cavalry to intercept the grain road and cut off the back road, but the cavalry of Eryang came to defect, saying that the Xuzhou thieves are not afraid of cavalry at all, and firearms can also cause heavy damage to the cavalry, as a result, the generals immediately became cautious when they heard this, and the cavalry and horses were the lifeblood of each family, and they were naturally reluctant to take out the loss, although the new 1,000 or hundreds of cavalry were happily divided by everyone, but the things in hand were their own, How can it be taken out and consumed.

Then on the way to Xuzhou thief army, each family sent cavalry to test it, not to say, not to say, but lost hundreds of horses there, which is not only heard of but also examples, everyone is even more reluctant to take risks, in this case, even if Wang Zaijin wants to use any tricks, no one will pay attention to it, no one will implement it, and can only use a strategy that everyone can accept.

Speaking of this incident, it reminded Wang Zaijin of what happened in Liaodong, and he almost couldn't hold back his anger, but finally calmed down and continued to say in a deep voice: "I wait for the Gyeonggi Heavy Land behind me, where Shenjing is located, which is even more important to be stable first, never be reckless and risky, when I use my strengths to control the enemy's shortcomings, our army is strong, the thieves are sick and weak, just use the momentum of Mount Tai to push forward, the battle to defeat the thief army, not to seek a complete victory, to accumulate a small victory can be a big victory!" ”

Although the words are elegant, it sounds very reasonable, but to put it bluntly, it is to rely on superior forces, everyone to press over, do not risk any annihilation and siege, first seek no fault, and then force back the thief army, this is the most secure and risk-free strategy, such an arrangement is naturally the best for generals who want to preserve their strength.

"The thieves have three heads and six arms, we have more than 30,000 border troops, 20,000 Beijing camps, and 20,000 Zhili soldiers and horses, and they have also crushed them. Zhang Jixian said loudly, everyone nodded again, what is the basis for predicting victory or defeat on the battlefield, it is not the number of troops, more than three times the advantage is the biggest guarantee for victory, not to mention that the official cavalry is already nearly 10,000, if this can be lost, the sun will come out from the west.

Wang Zaijin and Zhang Jixian naturally discussed in advance, and if they couldn't coordinate, they couldn't send troops, but after saying that, Wang Zaijin said to General Hong who led the Beijing camp: "General Hong, you allocate a piece of soldiers and horses to Tianjin, that is the foundation of our army's grain and grass, and it is also the hub to undertake the follow-up soldiers and horses. ”

"The last general will obey orders." General Hong stood up and replied.

Shanxi, Zhending, and Baoding's generals showed a sneer on their faces, they all understood what Wang Zaijin meant, this time there were some nobles and children of internal officials in the soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp, who were full of interest and wanted to make meritorious contributions, and there were those who were dizzy and wanted to see the excitement, if these people were damaged, everyone would have to eat and hang, so send these people back to Tianjin first.

Inspector Wang Zaijin didn't even hide his frowns this time, and the deputy generals and staff generals below didn't take him as a supervisor in their eyes at all, otherwise they wouldn't have shown their expressions unscrupulously.

The world will be in chaos, and in the future, I am afraid that the scholars will not be as good as the martial artists, Wang Zaijin suddenly had this idea in his mind, this idea made Wang Zaijin and shocked, and hurriedly threw it to the back of his mind, and said solemnly: "Tomorrow, the border army of Xuanfu and Jizhen will fight in the center, and the Jingying town will guard the city and the camps of all roads, and the Shanxi border army will be in the west with the soldiers and horses of Baoding, and the soldiers and horses of Zhending will be in the east, and the army of thieves will be suppressed." ”

This is for tomorrow's big battle, all the generals are up and stood up, solemnly agreed, this neat scene made Wang Zaijin feel more comfortable, I hope that after this big victory, I can be transferred to a rich and rich place to be a governor, and then return to the hometown, the court can't stay, seeing that the eunuch party is going to carry Sun Chengzong up, and Donglin must have a fight to the death, thinking in his heart, Wang Zaijin has a solemn and solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, this battle will definitely take time, as long as we deal with it calmly, the thieves will be destroyed!" ”

"The Governor is right, after all, this is a war in our Ming realm, the thieves are only a moment fast to force here, as long as they hold each other, all the soldiers and horses in the world will gather, and then it will be several times dozens of times the army here, then the thieves in Xuzhou have an immortal truth, as long as we are calm, we can't run away with a great achievement!" Zhang Jixian said helpfully, which made the solemn atmosphere in the room suddenly a lot easier.

"I don't know who will be in the hands of Xuzhou soju in the future?" General Hong Shen, who led the Beijing camp, said with a smile, and everyone in the room began to laugh.

Wang Zaijin smiled indifferently, but he didn't care in his heart, he read moral articles and won fame in the imperial examination, and later read a lot of military books when handling military affairs, and communicated a lot with his staff, always talking about what "orders and prohibitions", talking about "forest and order", but these years of experience, from Liaozhen to here, I have seen some tigers and wolves, but more are unbearable things, generals are like gentry and giant businessmen, soldiers are like lowly slaves, all these years are like this, is it possible that those elites mentioned in the military book and war strategy are the same as "the rule of three generations"?

Zhao Jin got up very early, when he woke up, maybe the sky was already white, but through the cracks in the military tent, it was still dark, Zhao Jin took a deep breath, it was early summer at this time, but the early morning in Jinghai County was still quite cold.

He turned over and sat up, and there was an immediate reaction outside, and a guard looked through the gap in the tent, saw Zhao Jin standing on the ground, and hurriedly asked for instructions outside.

When he washed with the cold water that came, the guards said that there were two raids last night, and that they had been quiet in the future, Zhao Jin wiped his face and asked, "How long will it take to leave the camp?" ”

"Two or so moments left."

After getting the answer, Zhao Jin was silent for a while, and then said, "I'll go and practice the gun for a while, and it's fine as usual." ”

The guards didn't expect Zhao Jin to answer this way, and they were stunned before they hurriedly agreed, Zhao Jin took a sip of tea, and directly picked up a spear and stood in front of his military tent, there is naturally a large enough open space in front of the boss's residence, and it is separated from each other, so you don't have to worry about alarming others.

The guards were a little excited, they only heard that Zhao Jin and his partners were brave and unparalleled, and a few people were killed in the face of hundreds of bandits, and they didn't know what kind of superb martial arts they were, but now these guards came late, and most of Zhao Jin's martial arts exercises were in private houses, and they hadn't seen much of them.

But Zhao Jin's drill was very monotonous and boring, first moved his body, then picked up the flat end of the spear and stepped forward, stabbing forward at once, the action did not change, or raised the spear, and stabbed forward with a small range of movements.

This is clearly no different from the daily drills of the brigade teams, and the sergeants and soldiers are also practicing this kind of combat skills, and they all say that the martial arts skills of the master are superb, shouldn't it be the kind of routine that dances the spear like a windmill, running high and low?

The guards wanted to think about it, naturally no one would say it, and even their expressions showed admiration, but after all, they were young and vigorous, and their expressions were still a little stiff, Zhao Jin didn't pay attention to the thoughts of the crowd, he just practiced at once, but this monotonous routine reminded him a lot, from learning martial arts with his second uncle Zhao Zhenxing to being ambushed in the snow, if Sun Dalei didn't die, now he would also be in charge of a brigade, or I didn't worry about him, take it by his side and let him take care of Yunshan Xing

"Don't you think it's anything out of the ordinary?" Niu Jinbao asked out loud, after the number of guards increased, Niu Jinbao did not have to be on duty day and night as before, but could rest regularly.

When asked like this, many of the guards trembled, and then replied with a strong smile: "Master Jin's martial arts skills are superb!" "When I look at it, I feel cold all over my body, and I feel murderous!" "Sure enough, it's true"

Niu Jinbao smiled and glanced around, under the reflection of the morning light and torches, the young guards' mismatched appearance could be seen very clearly, these young guards had been taught by Niu Jinbao after entering the guard, and they naturally understood their thoughts very well, but at this time, there was no need to say it.

"That's what you learned in the company, you joined the guard, and that's what I taught you, you didn't talk about it, saying that I didn't teach my true skills, and they all passed it on to Sun Dalin." Niu Jinbao said teasingly, the expressions of the guards were a little embarrassed, they didn't expect that Niu Jinbao would already know their private theory.
