"My lord, is Ying Mingyan old and confused? How could you hand over the Shenwei Army to such a person? "Following Lin Mo, the city lord of the Northern Wei Dynasty, was Lin Mo's cronies, Lin Chongshan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Rest easy." Compared with Lin Chongshan's impatience, Lin Mo seemed extremely calm and didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

After a long time, an officer of the Shenwei Army walked to the gate of the big camp and said to Lin Mo: "My lord, my general is busy with military affairs, and I really can't spare time to meet my lord, and I ask my lord to go back to the city lord's mansion first. ”

Lin Mo's expression was very flat when he heard this, and he smiled tepidly at the officer and said, "In this way, the old man will visit again tomorrow." ”

"My lord, this is not necessary, my general said, my lord, you are busy, you are busy, so you should wait for my general to come to the door in person." Hearing that Lin Mo was coming over again tomorrow, the officer immediately spoke.

Suddenly, Lin Chongshan saw that the other party was obviously deliberately avoiding it, and stood up and said: "My lord, I don't think there is any need to come over tomorrow, the dignified Shenwei Army is just a gutless bandit, and they often boast about what kind of brave and mighty elite of the Celestial Empire." ”

Lin Mo glared at Lin Chongshan fiercely, and said to the officer of the Shenwei Army: "The general still wants to forgive me, but he is also dizzy." ”

The officers of the Shenwei Army didn't want to be as knowledgeable as Lin Chongshan, not to mention that the dignified city lord of Northern Wei City could talk to him in such a low profile, didn't it seem that he was too stingy to deal with the people under him?

"Lord Castle, I can understand this."

"Thank you, thank you." After thanking the officers of the Shenwei Army, Lin Mo turned his head and glared at Lin Chongshan fiercely, and shouted, "Don't leave yet." ”

Lin Chongshan was like a child who had made a mistake, following behind Lin Mo with his head down.

On the way back to the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Chongshan couldn't help but speak: "My lord, I really don't understand, in the territory of Northern Wei City, it is your largest, and any army of the Celestial Empire can be requisitioned at any time when it passes through here, why are you so polite to them?" ”

Lin Mo shook his head and smiled: "Do you think the conscription is so easy to conscript?" That's a guillotine. ”

"But ......" Lin Chongshan naturally knew what a guillotine was, and he also understood what Lin Mo meant.

The imperial court gave the city lord the power to temporarily requisition the army, not to protect the city or anything, but to see which of these city lords would be so bold and dare to requisition the army.

As the lord of a city, if he still has troops and self-respect, the emperor will never be at ease with the existence of such a person in his own land, so such a person will only take a dead end in the end.

Lin Mo knew this truth very well, but for the sake of the country, if necessary, he would also put aside the life and death of his entire family and requisition the Shenwei Army.

"Don't worry, I'm in control."

"Your Excellency." Lin Chongshan continued in a deep tone: "I think that He Taiji is a mediocre talent at all, otherwise how could he not fight? And the adults also know that he He Taiji won an official position by gambling, how can such a person take on such a heavy responsibility? ”

Regarding Lin Chongshan's chatter, Lin Mo just sighed.

I remember that the night before Ying Mingyan left the Northern Wei Dynasty, he secretly came to meet him.

Seeing Ying Mingyan climb over the wall and enter the house at night to find him, Lin Mo knew that this old man must have something important to explain to him.

But when he saw Ying Mingyan, Lin Mo couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what's the matter with you?" Why do you suddenly go to the book to tell you old? ”

Ying Mingyan is less than sixty years old, but now he is about to quit the Shenwei Army, not only other people are inexplicable, but even Lin Mo, who is most familiar with Ying Mingyan, is also confused.

"I'm old, it's a world of young people now, how can a bad old man like me occupy the pit and not? Dude, do you say no? "Regarding the abdication, Ying Mingyan is happy from the bottom of his heart, after all, the burden of the Shenwei Army is too heavy.

"But brother, you have been the commander of the Shenwei Army for six generations, and now you ......"

Ying Mingyan waved his hand and interrupted Lin Mo's words: "Brother, the times are different, and I am also old, although I have commanded the Shenwei Army for six generations, you will also say that it has been six generations, and it is time to hand it over to those talented young people." ”

Lin Mo saw that Ying Mingyan didn't have the slightest affection, and he didn't say much, but just asked, "How is this He Taiji?" ”

"Brother, I'm here to tell you about this." Ying Mingyan came to see Lin Mo out of the old friendship, so he came to remind Lin Mo.

"Brother, the eldest prince is not satisfied with the current saint, and he has already raised troops for a reason, so you have to be on guard in advance."

"Dude, is you thinking too much? The Northern Wei City is remote to the north, and the geographical location is not important. Regarding Ying Mingyan's words, Lin Mo's heart still sank.

Ying Mingyan nodded: "Under normal circumstances, no, but brother, you have to understand why the Northern Wei City has been guarding the training and the garrison has as many as 300,000?" The other cities are no more than 200,000 at most. ”

Lin Mo didn't speak, listening carefully to Ying Mingyan's analysis.

"Just because of the remoteness of the Northern Wei Dynasty, once an accident occurs, the imperial court will not be able to support it in time, so it will deploy heavy troops in the Northern Wei City, but the city defenders are not as good as the elite army of the Celestial Empire after all, so once something happens, you must hold on, so as to keep the Northern Wei City, you can ignore the war, Mrs. He will deal with it."

"Brother, what do you mean, the eldest prince is determined to attack Northern Wei City?" Lin Mo was not only surprised.

"Hehe, don't hide it from my brother, it's because the eldest prince wants to fight the Northern Wei City that I told the old man to return to his hometown, not to mention that I'm really old." Ying Mingyan is old, but it has another meaning, which means that his way of marching and fighting is old.

The Ying family inherited the tradition of the commander of the Shenwei Army, that is, all the generals in the army must be defeated, and if the generals of the Shenwei Army have the ability to defeat the commander of the Shenwei Army, they can naturally become the new commander of the Shenwei Army.

And this defeat is the marching formation, but it has become a "gamble" when it is circulated, and over time, no one understands the true meaning of this bet, and directly thinks it is gambling.

As for Mrs. He, the guitar not only defeated the generals of the Shenwei Army on the march, but even Ying Mingyan lost.

Therefore, He Taiji is naturally the next commander of the Shenwei Army.

For He Taiji, Ying Mingyan's evaluation was that "the tactics are detached and not confined to one section, which is enough to be promoted to the post of commander of the Shenwei Army."

"Is this He Taiji really so powerful?"

"Not only is it powerful, his eyes are more accurate when looking at the timing, I also told that if something really happens to the Northern Wei City, the Shenwei Army must take action, even if the whole army is wiped out, and He Taiji agreed to me on the spot, but he has a request."

"Request?" Lin Mo was stunned, did he want to ask himself for money and food?

"Yes, his request is very simple, that is, he must be in charge of the operation, and no one is allowed to intervene, as long as you understand this, brother, you can rest assured."

Lin Mo kept these words in mind, but seeing that his defenders were dying more and more, Lin Mo couldn't sit still, and immediately came to ask He Taiji for help, but he came twice to no avail, which made Lin Mo puzzled...... What is this He Taiji thinking?

Seeing the officer who passed the message come back, the general of the Shenwei Army asked, "Is he gone?" ”

"I'm leaving, but I'll continue tomorrow."

Hearing this, all the generals looked at He Taiji, but among them was not the gambling table, but the sand and stone models around the Northern Wei City and the Northern Wei City.

Finding everyone's eyes, He Taiji, who was sitting in the middle, glanced at everyone and said, "Is my face blooming?" Is it that pretty? ”

All the generals smiled and turned their heads away, not looking at He Taiji.

Among them, the deputy general of the Shenwei Army, who was sitting closest to He Taiji, asked He Taiji: "Commander, I said that Lin Mo is really thick-skinned, you have been in office for so many days, he has never seen you, and he still wants to come to the set just now, I'm afraid that when you come in, you don't even know who you are." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, after watching it for so many days, have you come up with a way?" He Taiji didn't pay attention to his words.

All the generals shook their heads, and one of them said: "Commander, the Beifu army now has as many as 500,000, and we only have 100,000, so the chances of victory are very small. ”

Everyone understands that the Beifu Army is an elite army, and the Shenwei Army is also an elite army, but since the Beifu Army has been preparing for war for a long time and has as many as 500,000, it means that the Beifu Army has prepared everything early, and the Shenwei Army will not be flattered by rushing to war.

"More people don't necessarily win." He Taiji said nonchalantly.

But He Taiji's words made the generals' eyes shine, and they all looked at He Taiji with a longing expression, hoping that He Taiji could let him attack.

He Taiji didn't pay any attention to the generals' gaze, because it was the same whether he ignored it or not.

"This time, our Shenwei Army will be dispatched with all of its troops, so you should prepare early."

The whole army is dispatched? But think about it, the Shenwei army is only 100,000, but the Beifu army is five times as many as itself, and it is reasonable for the whole army to fight, and the Beifu army is also one of the strongest armies in the Celestial Empire.

"General, it looks like you already have a plan?"

He Taiji nodded: "However, my plan is too risky, and everyone still thinks about whether there is any other way these days, but there is really none, so it is up to me to decide." ”

Everyone understands that He Taiji is also cautious, you must know that the whole army attacks, and one is not careful, and the whole army will be easily annihilated.

The city of the Northern Wei Dynasty is high and thick, and it is also a big city, which is not comparable to Xiliang City.

Even if Zhang Yuesong's siege crossbow concentrated a little attack, it could not collapse or shoot through the walls of the Northern Wei City.

Zhang Yuesong was so eager to storm the Northern Wei City, as long as he only had ten days, half of it had already passed, which made Zhang Yuesong have to be nervous.

Although it would take a month for the reinforcements of the Celestial Empire to arrive at the Northern Wei City at the earliest, Zhang Yuesong learned from Cao Zhuo that there was a fatal news.

The left and right armies of the Celestial Empire's powerful army were secretly operating near the Northland.

Therefore, the first ten days of the attack on the Northern Wei City are very critical, once the attack can not be carried out on the left and right, they will inevitably learn the news and come to the rescue, and then the Beifu army will face the three strong armies of Shenwei, Zuo and Right, even if the number of the Beifu army is large, if it is attacked by the three armies, I am afraid that it will only be defeated.
