A few days after the altar to worship the general, Huai Bo set a good day, and on the fourth day after the worship of the general, Wang Yue's commander assigned to the elite 100,000 new troops were ready to set off under the farewell of the nobles who did not accompany Huaishang.

In fact, if you are in a hurry, you can travel on the third day, and you can't choose a good day.

People of this era believe in this set, and seem to think that not choosing an auspicious day to travel is a sign of failure, and setting off on an auspicious day can be blessed by heaven and will help the war, but is there any? Of course, because they believe in this set, setting off on an auspicious day can increase the confidence of the king, the doctor, and the samurai, which is very helpful to the morale of the army, and vice versa.

In view of this, Wang Yue would not object, so the fourth day was the fourth day.

What is rare is that in the three days after the worship, there was a period of rain, and on this day, the rain was clear, but it was an auspicious day.

Seeing this weather, many of the Huaishang nobles have disappeared when they faced the decisive battle of the big country, and they all seem to be full of confidence, as if blessed by this auspicious day, the Huaishang coalition army will definitely return with a great victory in the north this time.

In this way, Wang Yue could only sigh that the auspicious day was amazing.

So on this auspicious day, after the 100,000 troops rescued Shen Guo, recovered their homeland, and defended Huaishang, they slowly pulled out a long dragon that stretched for nearly 20 miles outside the military camp and headed north.

The march of the army is mighty, and the speed can only be called unhurried, but it is completely different from the army running forward in many movies and television.

But Wang Yue knew that this was actually not slow, and it could even be said to be fast.

In the case of a poorly organized army, and such a large-scale army, it is half a day to camp in the morning, and it is not necessary to walk much to reach lunch, and after lunch, it is impossible to go far from camping in the evening, so it is necessary to set up camp in advance and then eat at night, and there are those who march less than 20 miles in a day.

Needless to say, if there are any more problems.

Moreover, in the process of this march, there are many issues that need to be considered, such as whether the soldiers of the long-distance march will fall ill from heat stroke in the hot summer, if this question is not considered, it may mean that the army will be defeated by the march, and it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining the physical strength of the soldiers during the long-distance march.

It is not like the soldiers in the era of firearms who trotted all the way with guns and trotted all the way, and they only needed to move their fingers and pull the trigger to kill people when they went to the battlefield.

In ancient times, there was an idiom called waiting for the enemy's long-distance march to come, and then attacking the enemy's fatigue with his own equipment, so that his own side could have a great advantage in both mental and physical strength.

Finally, there is the key question of whether the logistics can keep up.

In this way, for various reasons, most armies in this world cannot play a rapid march.

"Big brother, this is the warrior trained by the landlord priest in the news that he used one enemy and ten defeats to the doctor of Jinan and the snake Yu Gongzi? The army marched forward, and in the villages passing by, mixed with villagers and merchants, a samurai looked at the long procession and said disdainfully.

On his side, standing was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties.

This person was dressed as a businessman, but he couldn't hide the unnatural ruthlessness between his eyebrows and the aura of the army that permeated his body.

The man nodded slightly, and said: "Although it is not comparable, we must not underestimate it, you see that such a huge army can march at this speed, and it can remain orderly, and it seems to be faintly formed into a battle formation, where else can such an army be seen in the world except for Chen?"

"With this kind of military appearance, this army only needs to go through a few battlefields, it is a first-class strong army, if it is worthy of defeating the unprecedented flexible battle formation of Dr. Jinan, maybe there are not many people in the world who can be this army. ”

Originally, I was expecting his priests to destroy the road and buy me some time, but the landlord did not even dare to put his priests within hundreds of miles of his army. ”

"Well, it's a tricky one. ”

"What's the trick?" the samurai asked.

The man said: "You see the direction of this march, not from Lu Li into Shennan, but from Yang Zhai into Jidi, if it occupies Jidi, then my Cai State object, the situation of Shen will be changed for this, Huaishang's army only needs to entrench in Jidi, it can occupy the absolute initiative to attack in three directions, to the west can be to aid Shen, to the north can threaten the army of Xiangxiang, forcing the division of troops to respond, to the east can threaten Cai Nan Zhuyi, so that it does not dare to harass in the south." ”

"It's just a pity, how good would it be if my Cai Guo's military vehicle could go south to Huaishang first and sweep away the five countries of Huaishang?"

"It's good now, most of the troops are trapped in Shen and Xiang, and it is difficult to withdraw at least for a short time, and they can only watch the Huaishang coalition army capture Jidi. ”

"Why can't you withdraw, you can only watch?" the warrior was puzzled: "I, the commander of the Wu family, led the national division of Qiancheng, and now that I have glimpsed the movement of the Huaishang coalition army in the future, can't I lead the army to stop it? ”

"Although this army is very well trained, but after all, he has never been on the battlefield, this is when he is the weakest, and our army has been trained for several years, and has experienced many wars with Suiguo, but it is the strongest time, with the strongest attack on the weakest, even if the military formation it is rumored to be miraculous, what should it be?"

"It's just a cost. ”

"And I look at the elite of the Huaishang coalition army, all in this 100,000 army, the rest of the rear army is not enough to worry about, as long as this army is broken, then the entire Huaishang is invincible to the thousands of soldiers and chariots under the command of my Wu family. ”

"What does it cost?" the middle-aged man said: "You said lightly, but this is exactly what our Wu family can't afford, the monarch entrusts his direct military vehicles to my Wu family, but it is not used for such expenses, once it is spent, our commander of this thousand military vehicles will come to an end." ”

"Therefore, unless we can win a complete victory, our army must not attack easily, and this kind of battle is the most taboo thing for me, and besides, the two hundred horse troops in our army cooperate with the army of Jidi and Zhudi, and the destruction of Shen is imminent, and under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to draw away. ”

"Eight hundred soldiers in the city of Xiangdu, although it seems possible, but they must not leave, and even this matter cannot be mentioned. ”

"Why can't you mention it? The warrior asked puzzledly: "This is beneficial to the battle situation, and in the future, the Huaishang coalition army will capture Jidi and threaten the army attacking the elephant, and then it will still be necessary to divide the troops to deal with him." ”

"Of course, it can't be mentioned, otherwise if the battle is smooth, it's fine, if it's corrupt, the landlord monk will have something to say, saying that this battle is not that it can't break the elephant, but that our army is attacking the elephant but not making any effort, with its influence in the country, then the entire responsibility will be borne by my Wu family, and the monarch who supports us will not look good. ”

"Alas!" Saying this, the middle-aged man sighed and said: "When it comes to military strategy, my Wu family is unparalleled in the world, who are you afraid of?"

"What snake Yu Gongzi, what Da Chen Wushuang troops, it's just a joke. ”

After speaking, he shook his head and said: "Let's go, we have seen everything that should be seen, and we will send the news to the country, and submit to the country all kinds of threats that cannot prevent the Huaishang coalition army from entering the land, and ask the landlord to make every effort to delay the march of this coalition army." ”

"If it can, it can be delayed until our army destroys Shen or Xiang, that is the best, if not, then the situation will be corrupted in the future, and it is no wonder that my Wu family does not do their best, it is really the landlord and the monk clan who have ruined our army's plan to attack Huai, and it is useless in this matter. ”

"This kind of war is fought. The warrior next to him slapped heavily on the small tree: "There are so many scruples about marching and fighting, only to call me the Wu family's ten-strength can only reach three or five points, and it is strange to be able to win." ”

"Don't complain, do your best, even if the battle situation is unfavorable, we just need to keep the monarch, the elite division of a thousand times, and there is no fault. The middle-aged man said: "Speaking of war, it is full of all kinds of unforeseen events, and no one can say clearly before the end." ”

"In case of maybe, the Huaishang coalition army will give my Wu family a great opportunity to break through a few blows, then the great credit for pacifying Huai in the future will lie in my Wu family, and at that time, the monarch will have to be crowned by the doctor of Duoyi, and my Wu family will be regarded as a real foothold in Cai State. ”

"It is imperative that we resolve the Shen state matter as soon as possible. ”

The two were talking, not far away from the march of the elite coalition army, but they didn't know what was happening, they suddenly stopped, the two looked at each other, both were puzzled, the samurai thought for a while and said: "Maybe the damage to the road caused by the landlord priest some time ago has not been repaired." ”

"Big brother, you also know that the hand of the landlord priest destroying the road does not affect the passage of ordinary people and a few people, it is just a detour, but when this army travels, some things cannot be spared, and they will definitely be blocked. ”

The middle-aged man was pleasantly surprised: "I just said that there was an accident, and this unforeseen good thing is coming, I suddenly thought that a landlord priest is so powerful in destroying the road, what if the landlord himself goes up?

"But the landlord is a god, and he will take action easily for this matter?" the samurai wondered.

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "The reason for such an extremely important war is that the landlord and the monk clan have ruined the strategic plan of my Cai country, once the battle is lost, the landlord and his temple must bear great responsibility, how can he not take action?"

"And if there is a landlord to go all out, a few stone mountains will rise on several mountain roads from Yangzhai to Jidi today, and there will be a few places to copy the back road of the Huaishang coalition army tomorrow, I think the Huaishang coalition army does not need to go north, and spend most of the time on Raoshan to build roads. ”

The warrior's eyes lit up and he laughed: "Big brother, this method is really wonderful, in this way, unless the son of the snake can solve the landlord, no matter how clever his strategy is, no matter how powerful the army under his command is, it will be useless." ”

The middle-aged man closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, his face was full of smiles, how could he have sighed before, and said: "I have passed on all the awesomeness of this matter to the Shangcai and my Wu family's children through secret techniques, and I think it will be passed on to the monarch and the infant in the near future." ”

"With the ability of infants, it must be possible to force the landlord to take action in person. ”

"In this way, we can have enough time to clean up the Shen Kingdom and the Xiang Kingdom, and then clean up the Snake Yu Gongzi of Huaishang. (To be continued.) )
