Chapter 22: Who is the Former Commander (2)
He Xiaoduo learned Wen Yanxin's attitude, and she already knew it in her heart, so she skipped this topic and said: "If you want to say that the happiest thing about today, it is not that I made the princess in the morning, nor that I won the fourth uncle in the afternoon, but that Yun Tianjia accidentally dissolved the Golden Silkworm Gu poison, not only picked up his life, but also promoted several levels in a row at once, and successfully promoted to the rank." I think so, as long as everyone goes smoothly and gets stronger and stronger, I have nothing to worry about!"
Yun Tianjia smiled silently.
Sometimes He Xiaoduo has only a few simple words, but she can always speak to people's hearts, which makes people spontaneously have an urge to work for her. This is not so much an imperial technique, but rather a personal charm of He Xiaoduo.
He vigorously slapped the case and said excitedly: "That's what I said! That's exactly what I mean! To be honest, even if we lose to King Xuan today, I don't think it's anything." The group of people under him, that is, Ye Huan, I think it's not bad, and many of the others are a lot of age, although they may be a little stronger than us now, but in another year and a half, they don't need to be taken seriously. Moreover, King Xuan's command is mixed, and there are not a few people with suspicious identities, such as Chun Yujian and Jin Gu Liang, who have a background in banditry, and they can't be loyal at all.
The emperor said that it would take two years to compare the military achievements, and asked me to see that as long as we all work together and put more effort into it, King Xuan will have no chance at all. In fact, the last time we were trapped in the Dragon Bay War, if it weren't for the fact that the cultivation of the Dragon Shovel and I hadn't reached the eighth order, the Han Gong Pavilion, Zhong Yulou, and Xuemanshan of the Five Elements Sect would have been wiped out by us. ”
Long Yuandong pulled He vigorously back to his seat and reprimanded: "That time we were almost beaten into dogs, you can still take it out and blow it, I will also accept it!"
He Xiaoduo waved his hand and said, "The fat man is right. Our biggest opponent is actually not King Xuan, but the rebellious forces represented by the Five Elements Sect and the Nine Palace Pavilion. As long as we have the ability to solve the rebels, King Xuan will not be able to fight with us. At that time, our strength came up, and King Xuan couldn't fight if he wanted to.
However, in the last Huzhou Campaign, we only had 20,000 or 30,000 troops participating in the battle, and the main force was only 5,000 or 6,000, but this time we are bound to do our best, and the scale of the troops participating in the battle, the resources invested, the area in which we fought, and the enemies we faced are far greater than those in the Huzhou Campaign.
The number and complexity of the things that need to be considered, the resources that need to be coordinated, and the people who coordinate in such a large-scale war are very staggering. If we still follow the previous way of playing, we can't take care of each other, and we have to lose a lot.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to divide our personnel into two parts: one is the General Operations Department of the front line of the enemy, which is specially responsible for fighting the war, and the other is the General Cooperation Department of the rear of the enemy, which is responsible for logistics support and personnel coordination.
As for the Collaboration Department, it would be more appropriate for me to preside over it personally. As for the War Department, we need to elect a commander among all our generals. Let's take a look at who is the most suitable to be the former coach. ”
Yun Tianjia's eyes lit up.
He Xiaoduo's strategic thinking of dividing the combatants into two parts before and after is similar to the modern war of another life, which can be called a great innovation of this era, which is enough to solve to the greatest extent many practical problems of He Xiaoduo's team of scattered teams, large and complex personnel, weak sense of belonging, and listening to propaganda and not listening to tunes.
However, the front-line general operations department and the rear general cooperation department can be said to be a level relationship of mutual cooperation and mutual assistance, and even from a certain point of view, the general operations department needs to be in direct contact with the enemy, which is more dangerous, so its status may be higher, and He Xiaoduo is still only the commander of the rear general cooperation department, so what kind of person is qualified and capable of serving as the commander of the front general operations department?
It can be said that the former enemy commander at this time, if he can live to the day when the world is calm, he will inevitably become the generalissimo of the entire country, above 10,000 people under one person, and his status is unspeakably expensive!
Yun Tianjia turned his head to look at Long Yuandong, guessing that He Xiaoduo might nominate him to be the coach.
The crowd was silent for a moment.
It's not that everyone doesn't have ideas about the position of coach, but the temptation is too great, and everyone who thinks they have a chance is weighing it in their hearts.
According to common sense, since He Xiaoduo is the rear commander himself, then the former commander should also find a person with the same identity as He Xiaoduo to serve as the former commander.
In this way, in the whole country, only a few princes and Dazuo such as King Dun, King Xuan, King Ning, and Uncle Ji Dali are qualified to sit in this position.
But it is obviously impossible for these masters to come to He Xiaoduo to be the former commander.
King Ning doesn't have that guts, Ji Dali doesn't have that desire, King Xuan is a competitor, and the Shield King can't be separated from the west, let alone others.
What's more, He Xiaoduo made it clear that he was going to choose one of all the generals present to be the coach.
Then, to consider whether a person can be the commander, it will not only look at his identity, but mainly whether he has command experience, whether he has outstanding personal combat ability, whether he has a certain prestige in the army, and finally you can add one: whether he is a star arithmetic.
There are not many generals who meet these conditions at the same time, and Li Gaotang is one of them.
Li Gaotang has been in the position of the commander-in-chief of the Central Five Prefectures for many years, and his soul power cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the eighth order for a long time and cannot break through, and, judging from the current situation, even if he is lucky enough to break through the ninth order in the short term, with his position attributes, he is destined to stay in the rear of the war zone, and there are not many opportunities for meritorious promotion, so if there are no accidents, he will always stay in this position.
Normally speaking, the rank of Zhengsanpin may be his limit, and if he wants to go further, it is difficult to climb to the sky.
Therefore, he is very keen on the position of former coach.
Once in this position, his career will be rewritten.
In terms of cultivation, he is inferior to Dai Zhong, and in terms of combat effectiveness, he may not even be able to compare with Fan Ye, Liu Yichen, Long Yuandong, and Yun Tianjia. But he also has his own strengths.
You must know that the number of regular government troops in a single state is close to 10,000, and he is in charge of five states, with a total of almost 50,000 people, not including the county soldiers, county soldiers, and township warriors at the next level, if this is also counted, the number of soldiers under his command will at least increase several times, although the quality is a little uneven, and even indiscriminate, but quantitative changes cause qualitative changes, with the experience of commanding so many soldiers, among the generals under He Xiaoduo, no one can compare.
And he has been the chief for so many years, and his prestige in the army is passable without saying, coupled with the identity of a two-star arithmetic, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that the former handsome belongs to him.
However, Li Gaotang is a cautious and steady person.
He pondered his words for a while, and said with a loud smile: "Princess, in terms of qualifications, cultivation, loyalty, the position of former marshal, I'm afraid only the acting general can be competent!"
"Chief Li, don't laugh!" Dai Zhong hurriedly excused himself and said: "If I fight alone with others, I will have some confidence." But being a commander is really not my forte, and last time I just took 3,000 people to save Long Yuandong, and I was tossed enough. What's more, it is the mobilization of hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops? Please don't mention this matter again!"
