Chapter 126: Being a Person
The pace of the war began to pick up.
In the city of Yingdu, the various yamen began to operate rapidly, if the previous prince was only maintaining this basic situation when he was the commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, then when the Marquis of Jingnan came here, the bureaucratic system here suddenly became extremely efficient.
What to do, what to raise, the support and rationing of soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and so on, Jingnanhou is only responsible for approving the strips, and the strips will be quickly passed to the hands of the relevant divisions.
If you can't do it well, it doesn't matter, just behead the chief officer, and the adjutant will follow, and if it's not good, continue to kill.
In Yingdu City, no one dared to have objections, at least, there were no objections on the surface, and the yamen at all levels began to operate desperately.
This is the value brought by prestige, and of course, there is also the blessing of Jingnanhou himself's "fierce reputation".
What the eldest prince can't do and doesn't dare to do, here in Jingnanhou, it's nothing.
The so-called law does not blame the public, gathers the crowd to protest or something, and no one dares to go to the tandem and no one dares to do it, because everyone knows that this master will really kill people, and he will not hesitate to kill people.
Compared with the east bank of the Wangjiang River, there is an extremely clear difference, that is, the west bank still retains a relatively complete ruling system, and the yamen at all levels can also operate.
Although the war is being fought, the spring ploughing and the autumn harvest a while ago have actually been barely completed, and the organizational strength in all other aspects is still there.
At the same time, because the Yan people are a new foreign regime, the deterrent effect on the local family forces is also extremely strong, and the local forces of Chengguo originally dared to compete with the local officials of Chengguo, but when they saw the Yan people, not only did they not dare to resist, but they would take the initiative to offer and flatter.
That's how people are, and that's true of human nature.
On the contrary, on the east bank of the Wangjiang River, after the savages entered the customs, they only cared about burning, killing and looting, and what they did was to dry up and fish.
Gold, silver, goods, people, etc., Xu is poor and afraid, and even when he sees the iron pot, he wants to move it to the snowfield.
The puppet regime originally established by Situ Yi itself is a layer of window paper, and has little control over the place, although the Yan people were defeated in the last battle of Wangjiang, but the savages and the Chu people also sold the new dynasty established by Situ Yi, and after losing the army that was not much and supported himself, Situ Yi, the new "Chengguo" emperor, and even the "capital" of Yupancheng were occupied by Qu Tiannan, and he could only take his younger brother to a small county town called Fengxin in the east to establish a new capital, which is called "moving the capital".
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the entire east bank of the Wangjiang River is in a state of anarchy.
This should not be the situation that the Savage King wants to see, but it is also a situation that the Savage King cannot change, because after the Savage enters the customs, he can't control the Savage Warriors under his command to burn and loot.
A group of cavalry galloped on the west bank of the Wangjiang River, reconfirming the location of tomorrow's crossing.
In the afternoon, the crowd rested.
In the evening, the people should rush here, although the river is frozen, which reduces the difficulty of crossing the river, but if you want to let nearly 10,000 horsemen and horses cross the river quickly, you also need to make some preparations on the river.
In fact, after the Wangjiang defense line is frozen, its defensive property will directly drop by more than eighty percent, and when the water surface is frozen, the speed of passage will be greatly improved, the difficulty will be greatly reduced, and the defender will not be able to make an effective timely interception at all.
Alchemy can deliver his treasured wind oil essence to the great prince,
"You apply it, and you put it under your nose."
The eldest prince nodded, took a little of it, applied it to his nose, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt refreshed.
"This stuff is good."
"It's not, it's a pity that I only have one bottle left on me, wait for the next time, when the battle is over, after returning to Shengle, I'll get some to send you."
"Thank you."
"But you can't be thanked, you really can't be thanked, you are a nobleman, we can't do it."
"Tacitly?"
"Oh, yes, hehe."
Alchemist touched his head a little innocently.
In fact, the identity of the eldest prince, as long as he is not a fool, can be seen, because his mount ......
The black Pixiu is too conspicuous, in the entire Yan army, there is this mount at this age, and its identity is really easy to guess.
This time, you don't need alchemy to ponder, it's equivalent to an open-book exam.
Not only to serve this master well, but also to take a good measure.
However, leaving the eldest prince in this team, Zheng Fan has another consideration, that is, more than half of these people under the command of Jin Shuke are barbarians, and they belong to the group of people who have been brainwashed by the blind for the longest time and have the best effect and are the most loyal to General Zheng.
Tian Wujing wanted to throw the eldest prince here, Zheng Fan had no way to refuse, but he had to make sure that this army was always surnamed Zheng.
Alchemy is a blind and proud student who has been tested, and it will certainly be able to withstand the test ideologically and politically.
If it is replaced by other Jin generals, it is impossible to say that people will think of changing their thighs, after all, even if the prince of Dayan has just lost the battle, but his thighs are thicker and fragrant than General Zheng.
Under his own control, General Zheng felt that if he threw himself out of that position, he probably couldn't help but hug it.
It is true that the eldest prince would not do such a thing under normal circumstances, and Tian Wujing would not allow this kind of thing to happen, but the precautions that should be taken must be there, otherwise Zheng Fan himself will feel uncomfortable.
The eldest prince spoke:
"This time we are going to cross the river from here and attack behind the Chu army, but we don't know why we don't let us attack behind the savages."
It's like asking, it's like talking to yourself.
Since he lost the battle, the eldest prince began to study Tian Wujing's strategy, and the men of the Ji family, especially these princes, were extremely tenacious under the ravages of His Majesty the Emperor.
Zheng Fan once joked with the blind people, saying that don't look at the cruelty of Yanhuang's education methods, but the success rate of the princes is really high.
Hearing this, Alchemy smiled, took a sip of the water in the bladder, and said:
"Because the Chu people are prone to lack of food, the savages will not lack food."
"Why? When the Chu people went on an expedition, they must have brought a lot of grain and grass, and during this time, there should also be support from the grain and grass in the Chu State, while the savages only knew how to kill, plunder and loot, and many things were transported back to the snow field. ”
Jin Shuke's face smiled a little unnaturally,
Road:
"Because the wild people will graze."
"Grazing now?"
"Yes, they can eat sheep."
"No, it's impossible, the sheep don't have enough to eat." The eldest prince was very determined.
He is not the kind of prince who has been staying at the gate of the prince's mansion without leaving the second door, he knows what cattle and sheep mean to herdsmen, which is equivalent to the land of the people of the Central Plains, can he be willing to eat as much as he wants?
Jin Shuke shook his head and said:
"Do you know that there is a kind of sheep that has two legs?"
"........." the eldest prince.
The atmosphere, all of a sudden, was silent.
After a long time, the eldest prince nodded, bit his lip, and signaled that he understood.
Tian Wujing only attacked the Chu people's grain road and the rear, was it because he had long known that the wild men would do that?
Alchemy knows this, and that's because when the barbarians were strong in the early years, they did this to the Yan people.
It's just that now, the desert is weak, the Yan people are strong, and it is almost impossible to do that again.
"Nobleman, in my opinion, the wild man is just a group of wolf cubs, don't look at the fierce jump now, but after all, it is not the opponent of the tiger, to deal with the wild man, you only need to find a suitable opportunity, and rush with him head-on, and when the time comes, it will be clear who is strong and who is weak."
Savages are similar to barbarians to a certain extent,
But the barbarians have always looked down on the savages,
Alchemy is also in this state of mind.
Lao Tzu can't beat the Yan people, and he can't clean you up?
"On the contrary, it is the state of Chu, I think, they are more difficult to deal with, on the battlefield, the last thing they want to face is actually an orderly opponent."
When the eldest prince heard this, he nodded, he had fought with the Chu people, and Li Bao led the army to die on the east bank in order to break him off.
The Qingluan army of the Chu people is indeed elite.
"The infantry phalanx of the Chu people is not easy to gnaw."
The Chu people are extremely strong in foot combat, and the troops are complete, even in the wilderness, as long as the Chu people form a formation, it is difficult for the iron cavalry to find a place to fall.
Alchemy laughs:
"That's why you have to trap the Chu people."
The eldest prince took the opportunity to ask:
"What about after being trapped? Let's go siege? ”
"Fight the wild man after being trapped."
Siege Chu Jungler?
The eldest prince suddenly felt that the barbarian man in front of him, he was very different, really different, because the eldest prince had a hunch that this commander named Jin Shuke, who is now his nominal "Shangguan", seemed to have guessed the next strategic layout of Jingnanhou.
The eldest prince immediately sat cross-legged, facing Jin Shuke, and said:
"Tell me more."
Alchemy is also a little excited, he likes to talk, but there are some things that you can't say because you don't have a suitable audience.
"Savages, to put it bluntly, are nothing more than a group of mad dogs, but the Chu people are different, the Chu people will build and defend the city;
Why is the current situation in Wangjiang so difficult to fight, isn't it because the Chu people are involved?
The Chu people and the savages, on the east bank of the Wangjiang River, are actually complementary to each other. ”
"Forehead ........."
The eldest prince didn't remind others that the words were wrong again, as long as he could understand them.
"Without savages, the Chu people can't show it at all, and they can only be beaten passively in front of our cavalry, because the existence of savages makes up for their shortcomings in this regard.
And if the savages don't have the Chu people, and there are no Chu people here to occupy and hold Yupan City, their end can only be to fight and retreat, and there is no other choice.
Because of the appearance of the Chu people, the savages are qualified to hold on to us.
It's called, war ...... War...... Strategic space, right, is the word.
Therefore, if we trap the Chu people, the wild people will inevitably save them, the king of the wild people, even Mr. Bei said that he is a great character, and he will definitely not set fire to the other side, is it called arson, right? ”
"Watching the fire."
"Oh, yes, in the final analysis, we are still strong, although we lost once, but count our Zheng Jiajun...... No
Counting our Shengle Army, a total of 50,000 Jingnan troops came, and the Hou Ye also came, saying that you don't like to hear the nobles, the name of the human shadow tree, the Hou Ye stood behind and you stood behind before, giving us the feeling of being a soldier is different. ”
"I know." The eldest prince nodded.
He does not deny this, nor will he deny it.
A military god can bring not only tactical and strategic advantages to an army, but also a bonus to the morale and confidence of the soldiers, which is also extremely terrifying.
The eldest prince asked again:
"Then you say, wild man, how to fight?"
"Hey, what's so difficult about this, get on the horse and charge, draw the knife after two rounds of riding and shooting, and then draw the knife and hit it directly, on riding and archery kung fu, nobleman, your Zhenbei Army and Jingnan Army are really no worse than us barbarians, what are you afraid of?
Fighting with savages, in fact, there are no other twists and turns, in my opinion, it is the same as fighting two groups of wild dogs, the strongest and the most capable of fighting, must be placed in the middle, and the opposite side to fight, to do!
As long as the group that can fight the most on the opposite side is beaten down, and the rest is subdued, and the rest of the courage will be dispersed.
Last time, the reason why the Left Army was so completely defeated was because that group of people was really ........."
At this point, Alchem closed his mouth, realizing that he seemed to be talking too much.
The eldest prince closed his eyes, took a deep breath, nodded, and said:
"It's my fault."
The fault is that I think too much, that I am too cautious, and that I think things that can be simple and complicated.
"Noble, your temper is really good, hehe."
"I also grew up in the military."
"Hehe, yes, what, maybe I can't say these words, and I don't have the qualifications to say them, but noble, Mr. North said that failure is a successful mother;
Don't be discouraged, just get up again in the future, your capital is stronger than 10,000 people. ”
"General Zheng has you as a general under him, which is really enviable."
The implication of these words can actually be understood as a hint.
Because everyone knows that it is impossible for the eldest prince to be a captain under the Shengle Army forever.
But alchemy is just pretending that he doesn't understand,
The eldest prince only thought that he was a little anxious, and resolved the embarrassment and said:
"I'll take a few more people over there to have a look to make sure there are no spies from the Chu people."
"Okay, you've worked hard."
"That's what I'm supposed to do."
When the eldest prince left,
A barbarian soldier took the initiative to approach Jin Shuke and whispered:
"Jin Shuke, that noble man of Yan Kingdom, seems to appreciate you very much, you are about to develop."
A disdainful smile appeared at the corner of Jin Shuke's mouth,
Reaching out and unceremoniously patting the brute's helmet,
Scolded:
"Forget who gave you food?"
"No, don't dare. Me, I'm just happy for you. ”
"Happy?"
Jin Shuke snorted, and there was no trace of the respect on his face when facing the eldest prince before,
Cold Voice:
"The nobles of the Yan people all use us as dogs, only General Zheng really treats us as people.
I'm from a tribe of criminals, and I've had enough of being a dog,
Right now
I want to be human. ”
