Chapter 554: Missing a Way
"Your Majesty's use of troops this time is unprecedented in scale, and such a road of thousands of miles has never been seen before, so it is better to be cautious."
was used by Jia Xu as food for Westerners to fund the defeat of the remnants of the Satsuma Kingdom, what else could Xun Yu say, if he hadn't come to this world, he would inevitably have to find a way to get rid of Jia Xu.
But fortunately, everyone is a person who has died once, and it is not the same world as it was at the beginning, Xun Yu smacked his lips, and returned to the queue after saying this.
Seeing that Wang Zuozhicai's Xun Yu was said to retreat, Jia Xu arched his hand and continued: "Your Majesty, when you use troops in the west, you should do everything you can, just like when they came to the Western Regions.
At present, the states have assembled their troops and headed north to Yanjing, and it will probably take half a month to reach the front line of Yantang Pass and Longyang County...... According to reports, Zhao Kuian, who was in Wuzhou, had already brought 75 ships to join 35 ships of Qi Jiguang and Zhang Liao's subordinates, and trained their naval forces while sailing, and arrived at the Feiyungang camp in 10 days.
Dong Zhuo and An Lushan's Xiliang Army has entered the Tiele Kingdom and is preparing for war, Dong Zhuo still has a letter sent over on the fifth watch today, the above is some military baggage needs, the minister has approved it, and it will be sent to His Majesty's study later.
In addition, the workshops in the northern suburbs, in recent times, have been rushing to produce production, and there have been two accidents, an explosion in a warehouse and a workshop, and forty casualties......"
"The families of the casualties must be compensated, and I will never treat the people below badly."
"The minister has already done it, and there is one more thing, Subutai asks for 1,200 catties of fine iron...... Build the Mongolian Iron Horse. β
The sky gradually cleared up after the rain, and in the Xuanwu Palace, as the matter was discussed, the Tai Lieutenant, who was in charge of the military, continued to report to Su Chen the needs of the recent armies, and at the same time informed the rest of the Chinese civil and military forces about the current progress of the Western Expedition.
Although the big war is coming, such a huge war requires the mobilization of a large number of grains, horses, and various transport equipment, which is not a simple job, not to mention the different distances between the states, and the arrival time is naturally different, if there is a strong wind and rain weather, it will be postponed.
From the beginning of the spring when it was agreed to send troops to the West, to the present September, all kinds of logistical things are still operating.
A series of tedious things, such as intelligence, grain and grass, warships, vehicles for transporting troops, and conscripted labor, must be prepared in advance.
During this period, the strategy for the West has also been finalized, and Su Chen's personal expedition to the West also means that the crown prince Su Chen will take charge of the government, how can a child who is only eight or nine years old at the moment do this, and then Xun Yu and Di Renjie will have to assist on the side.
This period of time can be regarded as Su Chen's busyness, and all kinds of things need to be arranged by him, especially in the prince's handling of court affairs, he also needs to do some psychological counseling for Su Chen, a child, to teach him how to deal with it, how not to have stage fright, etc.
Soon, when it came to Su Chen, the prince was going to be in charge of the country, Xun Yu came out at this time and dispelled everyone's worries.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a soft personality, but in fact, he is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and such a person will be blessed to the people in the future. As for the expedition to the west, His Majesty still considers one or two things at his discretion. β
Yes, this Wang Zuozhicai still has Jia Xu's plan in mind.
"Haha, Xun Shilang, don't be angry, anyway, it's a barbarian, no matter what strategy he has, as long as he kills it!"
Li Xuanba didn't have so many curves, he said loudly behind Lu Bu to Xun Yu, who was talking in the middle: "The prince will let him sit in the court hall, and our uncles and uncles will clear the way for him!" β
"Xuanba, be cautious, Your Majesty is still there." Qin Qiong pulled the corner of Li Xuanba's robe from behind.
In the main hall, you say a word to me, everyone has their own ideas about the Western Expedition, since they let go of their hands and feet to fight, everyone can come and talk about it.
And Wu Anjun Bai Qi, as a commander-level general, rarely didn't finish speaking, just listened to the words of the generals of later generations after him with a smile.
Su Chen summoned everyone, originally wanting everyone to get acquainted with Bai Qi, and talk about the Western Expedition by the way, so that Wu Anjun could have a more intuitive feeling.
I didn't expect it to evolve into a real military discussion.
He listened calmly with a smile on his face, and after a while, he raised his hand and pressed it twice, and the people arguing in the hall gradually became quiet.
Then, Su Chen's words rang out.
"Sending troops to the west is a big deal, and we must not be sloppy, and we must take every step steadily, so as not to give the Western barbarians an opportunity to take advantage of.
Right now, Xizhou has been incorporated into my Great Xia, and the road over there has begun to be built, and at the end of this month, it will be able to connect Tianfengling to Tiele area.
This is also convenient, our army can march in the fastest time, rush to Tianfeng Ridge to set up a large camp, so that the later soldiers and horses have a place to breathe.
The plan is such a plan, everything that should be done has been arranged, and there is only a lack of three-way candidates to send troops at the moment! β
Su Chen's gaze swept over everyone, and all the veterans present were from the battlefield of the sea of blood, including fierce generals and famous generals at the peak of martial arts, and there were also talented strategists and scholars, "If you want to divide the land into three routes of soldiers and horses, you must have a three-way commander, Li Jing, the god of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing is steady with his troops, and he is steadily advancing in the middle of the road; The right side is led by Wu Anjun, which is why I asked the First Emperor for Wu Anjun's token, just to prepare for this big battle.
However, I did not find a suitable candidate for the commander of the third army and horses, and I commanded more than 100,000 soldiers and horses...... It's not that I don't believe in your abilities, but this war is no smaller than before, and if it is slightly worse, the whole army will be annihilated, and the rest of the armies that are advancing will be annihilated. β
Su Chen's eyes were serious, and at the end, he glanced at everyone, and most of them also looked at Su Chen.
Li Jing stroked his beard and nodded: "Your Majesty is reasonable. β
The surrounding Huaxia civilians and warriors also nodded slightly, such as Guan Yu, although they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts, they didn't show it, but it was a pity that they couldn't lead such a huge number of soldiers and horses.
"Two of the three roads have been finalized, so the remaining one, does Your Majesty have any ideas?" Di Renjie asked softly.
Su Chen blinked, and then laughed: "Di Xiang asked me about it." β
Immediately, he looked at the crowd.
"After thinking about it, I haven't finalized the candidate yet, do you have any ideas? I can recommend it to me. β
Saying that, Su Chen clapped his hands, Zheng He at the bottom of the imperial stairs understood, and quickly walked out of the main hall with small steps, stretched out his hand to the eunuch in front of the palace of the latter, and whispered a few words in the other party's ear.
After a while, the palace maids came in with tea and snacks and placed them on the small table in front of everyone.
Su Chen stood up from the dragon chair: "While eating, discuss the matter of the Western Expedition, you don't treat today as a serious military discussion like the past, if you have anything to say, you can speak freely." β
"The commander of the rest of the way, Xiang Mou wants to have one person."
It was Xiang Yu who spoke, and when Su Chen's gaze fell on him, Xiang Yu came out and bowed his hand: "The person recommended by Xiang, everyone should know." β
"Xiang Bawang, don't sell it, hurry up!" Zhang Fei rubbed his hands a little anxiously, he wished that Xiang Yu would promote his second brother at this time.
It's a pity that when Xiang Yu left his words, Zhang Fei was quite disappointed.
"Xiang recommended one person." Xiang Yu was heroic and burly, and his voice was also very large, when Zhao Yun asked: "Who?" Xiang Yu's words followed: "Han Xin's house." β
Han Shin, who uses more soldiers, the better?
Su Chen closed his eyes and nodded, Han Xin was indeed a candidate for the commander of the third army.
But in his hand, there was no Han Xin, and Han Gaozu Liu Bang had not been unlocked, so there was obviously no way to get Han Xin out first.
It's really like a gacha, you don't have enough points, and you get stuck. β
"King Xiang reminded him well, I almost forgot about him, and after the discussion, I will find a way to get him to this world."
Su Chen naturally wouldn't say that the points were not enough, let alone save Xiang Yu's face, so he said what he just said.
Soon after the military meeting ended, everyone gathered around to talk to Bai Qi, and after they left, Su Chen invited Bai Qi to walk behind together.
Both of them are burly people, and at this time, they walked side by side under the corridor, talking and laughing about how it was like to see so many people in later generations today.
Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Wu Zixun probably understood that the two in front of them had extra words, so they didn't follow.
Along the way, the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards retreated to both sides, saluting with their weapons, or looking at His Majesty with a thousand charms.
It's a pity that Su Chen's mind was all on the matter of the Western Expedition, and he didn't take a second look at these beautiful palace maids.
"What does Wu Anjun think?"
"Your Majesty is asking about these Chinese civil and military forces?" Bai Qi took half a step behind, and when he heard this, Su Chen smiled: "I asked Han Xin." β
"The minister has not been in contact with it, but it can be admired by so many people, it is obvious that this Han Xin has something extraordinary."
"Well, an ambitious person, but the talent of commanding troops and using troops is indeed rare in the world." Su Chen put his hands behind his back, and after walking under the eaves, he turned his head slightly, "However, I don't doubt the use of people, and I don't need to use suspicious people, King Xiang has recommended it, so I will find a way to let him come over." β
Bai Qi nodded and did not speak.
"I have a lot of ambitions here, but they have seen a lot." Su Chen looked at the sunlight outside that exposed the clouds, "It's not like there's another way to live now!" β
The annoying sound of cicadas began to hiss again.
Bai Qi, who was standing behind, stopped, he looked at Su Chen's back and fell silent, and in the short time he woke up, he flipped through the books related to Xia Guo, and between the lines, he could see that this young man from the later generations was almost doing his best.
It can also be seen from the words and deeds of those Huaxia civil and military forces who have died here that Su Chen in front of him has also paid a lot for them.
I want to create a peaceful world for the Chinese civil and military people, make up for their regrets, and then continue the life that I didn't have time to enjoy in this world.
Bai Qi looked at the back in front of him, as if he saw the King of Qin who was also doing his best, and couldn't help but look forward to a Qin army appearing on this land again.
"Your Majesty!" γ
Bai Qi suddenly spoke, and when Su Chen over there turned his head, this Wu Anjun arched his hand at him, "Chen Baiqi, it's time to go back to the army!" β
He whispered.
Su Chen looked at him, a smile on his face, and nodded heavily.
β¦β¦
Soon after, the recruits recruited in the Northland, under the training of the veterans, left behind some unqualified soldiers, and there were still 50,000, of which 20,000 were pulled to the new barracks.
On the huge camp school ground, in addition to Xia Guoda, there is also a brand-new banner that is hunting in the wind.
This 20,000-strong recruit put on uniform black leather armor and helmets, and lined up neatly in the school field, forming five large phalanxes.
Many of them came to join the army, but they were actually going to the famous army, and now they were assigned to this 'Qin army' that they had never heard of, and many of them felt a little uncomfortable.
Muttering to each other, the soldier in front vaguely saw a knight galloping into the school field, came to the point platform, turned over and dismounted, and strode onto the high platform.
Overhead is the blue sky.
"I know why you are here in this new army, but soon you will understand that you are here...... All of them will become brave and good soldiers.
You and others have also heard about the affairs of the Western barbarians, and they also know that Your Majesty is going to conquer the West, and you and others want to make great martial arts!
You are all brave men of the north, your fathers have fought many battles with the king in this land, the Xirong people have fallen, the six kingdoms have also fallen at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and even the Western Regions have been incorporated into my Great Xia.
They were all trembling under the Xia State soldiers, but in the same way, it also made us understand that the strength of a country must be achieved on the battlefield-"
The wind blew across the high platform, and on the opposite side of Bai Qi were countless hunting flags, and the bodies on the school field clenched their fists and looked at the generals on the high platform.
Countless soldiers formed a black ocean of breath and condensed.
ββ¦β¦ You want to join the famous army, but you are just a group of recruits, and you have never even been on the battlefield, how can you enter? And the Qin army you enter, you will train you, wait until you survive, cut off the heads of the Western barbarians and tie them around your waist, and become a qualified soldier, I will let you stay! β
In the sunlight, thousands of soldiers silently looked at the figure on the high platform, and clenched the weapons in their hands.
The storm is rolling.
On the high platform, the majestic voice continued.
ββ¦β¦ If you want to become an elite soldier, you must be more fierce than the enemy on the battlefield, surpassing the bloodthirsty beasts, but unfortunately I want to tell you, no matter how powerful the beasts are, they can only become prey! β
Bai Qi slowly pulled out the long sword at his waist.
"And I, I want you to be hunters, to hunt those fierce prey, so that they can taste that the sword of the Qin army is stronger than others, and can easily cut off their heads; Can we crush them with our swords, and the torches in our hands will set their cities on fire and leave them homeless! β
The blade of the sword slashed through the sunlight, reflecting a dazzling cold light, and slashed in everyone's sight, Bai Qi looked at the black-pressed soldiers below, opened his mouth to kiss, and his high-pitched voice resounded.
"Since entering our military camp, you and others have all been soldiers of the Qin army, taking military merit as a benefit and the enemy's skull as a merit!"
"The windβ"
The 20,000 soldiers who were stretching in front hesitated for a moment, and then a monotonous voice shouted: "Wind! β
The next moment.
More soldiers seemed to be infected at this moment, and they screamed, slapped their scabbards, clenched their fists and raised them above their heads, roaring hysterically, and the voices gathered together and turned into a huge roar that swept the world.
"Wind!"
"Wind!"
Standing on a high platform, he raised his sword and looked up at the banner of the word 'Qin' that was flying in the wind.
For a moment, his eyes were slightly moist, he lowered his gaze, swept over thousands of soldiers, and roared: "Great Qin Chengjun, you and I are comrades, go and return together-"
