The army under the command of a general is never as much as possible, and it is a bad thing to have more people without corresponding ability. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

What kind of group is the army, what does this group use to form a collective, and what is the centripetal force of the collective and the degree of execution of orders. In fact, as long as we can distinguish the essence of the army, see the so-called structure clearly, and understand that the army is nothing more than a pyramid type of existence, and the restraint is continued by the downward military orders of the officers layer after layer, as long as there are enough qualified officers, it is not so complicated to maintain the collective nature of an army under the condition of sufficient food, grass and equipment, and what is really complicated is whether the troops that can move in their hands can be mobilized according to the needs of the war situation when a war breaks out, and the judgment made with a deep understanding of the situation.

Yang Tianhong was not able to lead troops at the beginning, it may be a bit ridiculous to say, but it is absolutely true, he only turned the knowledge in his head into practice after entering the army, and sorted out a set of command templates that meet his own in practice, relying on this template and in the repeated battles of leading troops, those "understandings" were really thoroughly mastered, and gradually developed the quality of a general who led troops.

People who have grown up under the influence of the big explosion of knowledge in another world have a great advantage when accepting things, and the next thing to rely on is their own understanding. The so-called comprehension is actually to grasp the knowledge, and then flexibly use that knowledge, otherwise the wisdom that only understands but does not use it is just a piece of paper.

For a long time, Yang Tianhong can actually be said to be a soldier on paper, fortunately, the opponents he encountered in the early stage, such as the Yue people barbarians are a group of guys who can't even compare to what is called on paper, and the bandits of Cuiping Mountain, so that a half-baked Yang Tianhong has an extremely precious and necessary process for the process of commanding troops.

Yang Tianhong also has his own upper limit of leading troops, which is estimated to be around 300,000, and once this Suzi is exceeded, there will also be a phenomenon of ignoring a certain army.

If you want to explain the so-called upper limit of leading troops more thoroughly, it is simply how many goods you have in hand. What kind of goods will have any effect, and when and at what stage can that goods be brought out. This kind of thing is relatively simple in Meng Qi's opinion, and his businessman's mind always has an innate sensitivity and advantage for money and goods. But it's always easy to say, and it's not always possible for everyone to remember what chips they have in their hands and when they should be thrown away.

understands the upper limit of his ability, Yang Tianhong is a little smarter than others to master what he can master, and those who can't control it are just to simply control the general direction, and then appoint candidates to play under the premise of the set general direction. Therefore, in the recent stage, Yang Tianhong has a new understanding of the command of the army, that is, he does not need to command the soldiers, just command the generals is enough.

I have to say that Yang Tianhong, who is the Duke of Yiyong and the envoy of Anzhou Festival, has such an awakening in a timely manner. Therefore, after the reinforcements went south, he was more relaxed than at any time before, and in this relaxed state, there might be some problems with the southbound troops under the command of the generals of various departments, but there was no major problem in the overall situation.

The purpose of this battle was to eliminate the threat of the Yue barbarians in one fell swoop.

Reinforcements from the south were fast. On the fourth day, the army had reached the outskirts of Yuan County. This is all thanks to the roads that have been built since a few years ago. From Ji Ping to Anzhou, and then to Yuan County, the highway system has become the most critical link in Yang Tianhong's entire territory. The basis of this battle plan was to trap all the Yue barbarian regiments around Yuan County, and Yang Tianhong personally led 150,000 troops to complete the rendezvous within one day, and he could prepare for battle within two days. That is, at noon the next day. Yang Tianhong was able to send out the troops at hand.

Yang Tianhong knows this better than anyone else, so he set the deadline for departure and inform the generals at the level of partial generals, and the partial generals will command the lieutenants to get ready.

Yang Tianhong, who has already set the date for the battle, will be idle, after all, it is the officers and military discipline who maintain the details of an army. What the boss does is to give orders and convey the orders that should be given, and the executor is the officer. If you really work as a coach and personally work on the situation of every soldier, your own exhaustion is secondary, and it is estimated that the situation you are facing is that the preparation that can be completed in a short time is dragged out much faster than a snail by the coach who does not know the center of gravity.

One day's time is definitely enough for a non-commissioned soldier who has already been mentally prepared for combat, and it can often be seen from the speed of preparation whether it is a veteran or a new soldier. The veterans had already prepared their weapons, armor, water bags, and dry rations on the march. The difference is to adjust your mentality when you hear the deadline. Recruits don't have the experience of veterans, and they will seem to be in a hurry, and they won't remember what to do until the order is given to fight.

There are not many new soldiers among these soldiers led by Yang Tianhong, and even the auxiliary troops among them are veterans who have been in battle. Only a small number of people were newly recruited from the local inspection of the capital patrol battalion from the late reorganization period of the Xuanhuo Army. Therefore, when Yang Tianhong was a little bored and walked around the camp with his own soldiers, the most common thing he saw was the soldiers sitting or lying or lying in a daze.

The commander, who didn't know the situation, must have been angry when he saw the soldiers so idle, and then asked like a fool why he wasn't as busy as he was in battle. An experienced manager will be pleased with what he sees. After all, the more soldiers who know how to prepare for war materially at all times and adjust their mentality before the war, the better, and with this kind of foundation, they can more or less be called elite troops.

In this regard, Yang Tianhong did not make any comment on this. As the main general, he is already very familiar with the performance of his own army and soldiers, and he feels that it is normal.

The terrain south of Anju is almost entirely virgin forest. The Yue people have lived here for generations, and the advantage of these unflowered barbarians in the forest is too great, if they don't take this opportunity to attract them to the surrounding areas of Yuan County, if they want to catch up with and annihilate these Yue ghosts in the deep mountains and old forests, it is something that they can't even think about. In this regard, Yang Tianhong does have a reason to gasp.

To put it mildly, ****** the forests and mountains here are actually the world of the Yue barbarians. These wild people, who are no different from monkeys, are really monkeys in the woods and mountains. Not only the Xuanhuo Army, but also all countries in the world, if any Han army wants to compete with the Yue barbarians in the forest and mountains, the combat advantage in equipment and military formation is equal to nothing, and in the face of the monkey-like Yue barbarians, they can't catch up, and the speed of the chase is too fierce and it is possible to be ambushed. But if you don't chase it, you have to wait for a few monkeys to sneak up from a certain place at any time...... In such a war, no matter who is in command, it will feel overwhelmed.

Later, the troops escorting the baggage had also arrived, and then came over to rendezvous, and the scouts that Yang Tianhong had sent out to keep an eye on the side of Yuan County also returned.

"The Shuiyue patriarch Ruan Shui Zeliang broke through the city wall section in the east of Yuan County, and the number of Yue people pouring into the city exceeded 250,000, and there were nearly 800,000 Yue barbarians on the periphery who were attacking the city wall sections in the north and west of Yuan County, but the south was deliberately let go. ”

Yang Tianhong was stunned for a moment when he got this battle report, and after he was stunned, he suddenly laughed heartily and loudly: "Hahahaha! I really didn't expect that Yang Sui's combat awareness is really good." ”

The scouts, as well as the generals around them who heard the appreciation, were a little confused, and looked at each other there. In their minds, Yang Sui didn't stick to Yuan County in this battle, and let the Yue barbarians kill it, why did his grandfather praise it so much?

Yang Tianhong didn't care whether Yang Sui deliberately caused the city wall to be lost or set up for the needs of the war situation. He only knew that the Yue barbarians who attacked Yuan County were really firmly attracted there this time, and the worry in his heart that the Yue barbarians would withdraw their troops was finally gone.

As long as the strategic goal is achieved, the rest can be ignored. That's what war is all about.

"Luck!

Yang Tianhong really felt the necessity: "Ruan Shuize Liang let go of the defenders in the southern section of the city wall, it can be seen that he wants Yang Sui to lead the army to break through from the south. Looking at the current situation, Yang Sui seems to have not found it, or it should be said that he has found it and is in a distressed stage. They didn't withdraw, and if they didn't withdraw, they were afraid that Ruan Shuize Liang would notice our arrangement. Hahahaha! It is estimated that Yang Sui is already so anxious that he has a headache. ”

Although Yang Sui could rely on the combat effectiveness of the army to try to recapture the lost section of the city wall, or to fight fiercely with the Yue people in the city, Yang Sui was obviously able to break through, so why did he have to stay in Yuan County to fight to the death?

Even if his own people are not in Yuan County, Yang Tianhong can more or less guess Ruan Shuizeliang's thoughts, Ruan Shuizeliang let go of the south of the city, in fact, he didn't want to force Yang Sui's troops to a desperate situation to form a death battle, on the other hand, he was also testing whether there was any conspiracy in the Chu army.

Yang Tianhong couldn't guess whether Yang Sui would break through or continue to fight in the city, after all, people's minds were extremely complicated, and there was no certainty about what choice he would make, and Yang Sui was ordered to stick to Yuan County until he got a signal to break through.

"Time and time are ripe. We launched an offensive in advance. In this way, whether Yang Sui breaks through or not, whether Ruan Shuizeliang will find out about our plot or not, these things are not so important. ”

This is the real reason why Yang Tianhong feels that he is lucky.

Tomorrow is definitely going to strike. Tens of thousands of cavalry will sweep all the way according to the originally planned route, first step by step to solve the scattered tribes of the Yue people who moved to the north of Yuan County, and then rely on the advantage of speed to intersperse the river, that is, the west bank of the Jinsha River, to destroy or capture the grain village set up by the Yue barbarians there.

The task of these cavalry is not complicated, and there are not so many mountains and forests between Yuanxian and Anzhou, and for cavalry, the combat radius of fifty or sixty miles is not a big problem at all. In fact, the most important thing in this battle is the infantry army, and the most important thing to test is the infantry army.

Just when Yang Tianhong was about to finish his order, he was about to wave them down. The scout brought back the latest battle report from Yuan County.

The news brought back this time was not very good -- after two days of entanglement with the Yue barbarians in the city of Yuanxian City, Yang Sui finally chose to break through, and after breaking through from the south, they fought and retreated to the north, making signs of retreating in the direction of Anzhou.

"Why, how can this be?"

Yang Tianhong was stunned again, and he couldn't help but open his mouth to fully show his surprise at this matter.

Yang Sui fought fiercely with the Yue barbarians in Yuan County for two days, and Ruan Shui Zeliang paid a very heavy price before advancing the battle line to a position close to the center of the city.

The scouts reported that Yang Sui's department, which broke through from the city of Yuanxian County, should have about 38,000 to 40,000 people, and as for the exact number, it needs to be further verified. That is to say, in this battle, Yang Sui lost at least as many as tens of thousands of Chu soldiers in Yuan County, and it can be seen from this number alone that you can imagine how stubborn and tragic the battle was.

In fact, under the brutal street fighting in the city, the corpses of the dead almost covered the gaps in the ground, and some of the concave places on the ground became sticky red pools under the collection of crimson blood.

"10,000 people, Yang Sui lost 10,000 soldiers in Yuan County......"

Yang Tianhong closed his mouth, and his left hand involuntarily covered his heart. His heart ached, out of the importance of the Southern Expedition, the Yuanxian Army can be said to be the first corps to become an army, and it is also the best one in terms of soldiers. Although the war will definitely kill people, and losses are inevitable, such losses are far beyond Yang Tianhong's expectations.

"Yang Sui, this bastard, has lost 10,000 soldiers!"

Yang Tianhong's eyes turned red in an instant, not to cry. It's a pure anger.

"Grandpa, please calm your anger!"

Yang Tong next to him quickly stood up, and he persuaded: "Yang Sui's decision to break through is correct. In this way, Nguyen Shui Duc Luong will detect the intentions of our army much later. What's more, Yang Sui's character and grandfather should be very clear. If it weren't for the time when it was critical, he would definitely not have evacuated. ”

Of course, Yang Tianhong knows this, and he also clearly understands the meaning of the bullshit sentence "will not accept the orders of the monarch outside", although there is a military order to stick to Yuan County, but Yang Sui only made the most important thing for the commander of the army, that is, to cooperate with the grand strategy, risk the crime of disobeying the military order, and not make the Yue people suspicious.

Under the premise of cooperating with the entire strategy of annihilating the Yue barbarians, although Yang Sui was guilty, he was even more meritorious, and it seemed that after making the right move, the credit was greater than the sin. Therefore, although Yang Tianhong was a little annoyed, he appreciated Yang Sui for doing what the main general of the first army should do, not only knowing how to judge the situation, but also making another more confusing maneuver, that is, retreating in the direction of Anzhou, which would definitely make Ruan Shuizeliang and Ruan Chen Heihu have less guesses, and buy more detour time for Yang Tianhong's headquarters in the south.

Yang Tianhong's anger was not aimed at anyone, it was completely a kind of anger that he should have as a general after learning that he had lost tens of thousands of soldiers. This shows that he really cherishes the soldiers under his command, as for Yang Tong and the rest of the people misunderstanding that Yang Tianhong was angry with Yang Sui's actions, he can only restrain his anger, but he will not make any statement in public.

The phrase "the general will not be subject to the orders of the king" is indeed true, but it should never be encouraged, especially with Yang Tianhong as the Duke of Yiyong and the envoy of Anzhou Jiedu, even if the disobedience of the generals under his command is extremely reasonable, this kind of thing must not be appreciated. Otherwise, it is to encourage the generals to disobey more, and when there is any rebellion or chaos in the end, it is absolutely self-inflicted.

The tide of battle is always changing, and if something unexpected happens, as long as it's not unexpected enough to collapse the battle, then it's not exactly out of control. In some ways, Yang Sui's actions were a favorable change in the entire battle situation, and it is inferred that if the Yue people were annihilated around Yuan County this time, the credit would be Yang Sui's greatest.

After breaking through from Yuanxian and retreating in the direction of Anzhou, it was Yang Sui who laid the foundation for winning the battle, so that even if Ruan Shuizeliang was shrewd, he would relax his vigilance if he thought about it, and such a credit was great enough even if it was the premise of disobeying military orders.

"Ben Gong has been thinking about why Ruan Shui Zeliang has to capture Yuan County. ”

Yang Tianhong's anger has not completely subsided, and the army that has been painstakingly reorganized has suddenly lost tens of thousands of sergeants, and it is strange that his anger can be calmed down so quickly. However, he hid his emotions and said to the generals who should have retreated with an expressionless face: "Even if Ruan Shuize Liang and Ruan Chen Heihu capture Yuan County, he should understand that as long as our army counterattacks." It must be impossible to hold it. ”

Everyone present could see that their grandfather's eyes were terrifying, and there was a terrifying anger in those eyes, so none of them dared to speak, so they could only keep nodding their heads.

Therefore, it is inferred that Ruan Shuize Liang must have a plan. A plot that even if many people die, they must attack Yuan County. ”

Although Yang Tianhong is well-informed and resourceful, he is not so evil as to be able to guess that Ruan Shui Zeliang is fighting this battle in order to re-purge power within the Yue Kingdom and fight his will. Yang Tianhong paused for a moment, and his tone changed: "However, it doesn't matter what his plans are, Ruan Shuizeliang, Ruan Chen, and Heihu." In this battle, their only fate is to become fertilizer in the soil around Yuan County! Kill! We must kill all the barbarians and all the Yue people!"

What else is there to say at this time? With a wave of Yang Tianhong's hand, the generals fled as if they had to leave the big tent of the Chinese army, and when they got out of the big tent, they might even lower their voices to discuss whether Yang Sui should be unlucky.

Waiting for the generals to leave, Yang Tianhong stood up and made a gesture to stretch his leg to kick the long case, the outstretched foot paused in the middle of the time, he laughed twice with a "hehe" in Angtian, and then looked at Yang Tong who did not leave: "There are 10,000 people, we have killed 10,000 soldiers in battle, how can we make the Yue barbarians pay at least ten times the price for this, right?"

Yang Tong understood his grandfather's thoughts, and replied very quickly: "After this battle, it is expected that the number of casualties of the Yue barbarians will not be less than 300,000!"

Yang Tianhong took a deep breath and motioned to Yang Tong with his gaze to say that he needed to hear some inferences that could remove the depression in his heart.

"Yang Sui's ability to lead troops may be decent, but he is also one of our generals who has risen all the way up by virtue of his military exploits. The soldiers of the Yuanxian Legion are all elite. Because of the importance you attach to the Yuanxian Legion, the officers in the establishment are basically people with rich experience in dozens of battles. Moreover, Yang Sui was originally a general of his father-in-law, and most of his subordinates, whether they were officers or non-commissioned officers, were born in the Xuanhuo Army. Speaking of which, the previous Jingshi patrol battalion was a bunch of garbage, but it was the best at fighting in formation, that is, defensive warfare. I don't know, I say that I have a preference for offense and defense. I know, in fact, I understand that this kind of thing is greedy for life and afraid of death. However, some of the characteristics of the capital patrol battalion were retained by the Xuanhuo Army. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Tong himself laughed a few times, and finally concluded: "Perhaps, it is inferred that the 300,000 casualties of the Yue barbarians in this battle are still less. After all, the composition of the Yue people's troops, as well as equipment and so on, you also know it, grandpa. (To be continued.) )
