Hearing Liu Tai's words, Wen Qiao couldn't help but say to Liu Tai at this time: "Does the general plan to take the initiative?" ”

"Hmm!" Liu Tai looked at the map and said, "According to the speed of their march, they have now entered Ji County.

They should be relatively relaxed before entering Wei County, but after entering Wei County, I believe they will inevitably be vigilant.

Therefore, it should be our best chance to fight them before they step into the realm of Wei County. ”

"I'm afraid that there are more than 100 miles from Yecheng to Jijun, if you want to implement this plan, you can only be cavalry!" Wen Qiao heard Liu Tai's words and said,

"Our army's cavalry heavy cavalry battalion, tun cavalry battalion, Yue cavalry battalion, if you add the cavalry of other generals' headquarters, all of them add up, about 5,000 to 18,000, is it enough?"

Hearing this, Liu Yao, Ge Xin, Wei Xiong and others couldn't help but straighten their chests, and they almost hoped that Liu Tai would call his name!

"This expedition, you need to be able to put into battle after a thousand miles of running, the explosive power of the heavy cavalry battalion is enough, but the endurance is not enough, and when you run to the destination, I am afraid that the horse will die of exhaustion first!" Liu Tai shook his head and said.

Liu Yao's expression couldn't help but dim when he heard this.

Because what Liu Tai said is not wrong, if the heavy cavalry can run for a long distance, then it will not allow other arms to survive, even if people can withstand it with their will, but the horse can't withstand it!

"And if I evacuate with the main force of the army, I need the heavy cavalry battalion to stay and guard Shile's army, no matter what tricks Shile uses, as long as the heavy cavalry battalion is there, Shile's efforts will be in vain." LIU Taidao,

"And the heavy cavalry battalion is here, so it can bring the greatest psychological pressure to the Shile army!"

Liu Yao nodded fiercely when he heard Liu Tai's words, he didn't play a role in this battle!

"The other thing is the more riding! Although it is suitable for raids, I prefer to leave Yue Qi behind, enter when Liu Yao's army is defeated, and directly let Yue Qi be responsible for pursuing Liu Yao, where Liu Yao goes, then pursue wherever he goes.

In the last encounter, we didn't catch Shile directly in one breath, so we still had to besiege Yecheng and couldn't take it for a long time.

Now we can't make the same mistake again, the more you need to conserve your stamina and attack when you need it.

Even if we take 10,000 steps back, if our attack is not successful, there are more and more horses, and we can more or less become a helper! ”

Liu Taidao, "So Yue Qi is not suitable for throwing himself into the war!" ”

"Then this matter will not be counted by my old Ge Mo!" At this time, Ge Xin heard Liu Tai's words and said excitedly.

"But if only General Ge's cavalry battalion charges, it will only be five or six thousand soldiers, this is too risky, I don't approve of this plan!" Wen Qiao resolutely objected.

For Wen Qiao, there are only five or six thousand people to rush, and the other party's army of 300,000 troops, even if it is Liu Tai, he does not approve of Liu Tai's tactics, the risk is too great!

Liu Tai shook his head and said, "So in addition to the Tun Cavalry Battalion and the Yue Cavalry Battalion, we also need at least 20,000 soldiers, and the soldiers under my command are counted as 10,000, and we also need to select 10,000 soldiers to follow me to crusade, but this time, they can only gnaw dry food, wear armor, and march eighty miles (forty kilometers) a day, but there are soldiers who are willing to take orders!" ”

Liu Tai said, but his eyes looked at Wang Sang.

The corners of Zhou Ping's mouth twitched, but in the end he chose to give up, he knew very well that his army was imitated according to the five schools of Sanhe, and the Tun Cavalry Battalion and the Yue Cavalry Battalion could still implement this plan, but the other three battalions would be difficult.

Especially the barrier battalion, the soldiers of this battalion not only wear fish scale armor, but most of them are also equipped with large iron shields, so it is strange that they can run over.

Wang Sang stood up at this time and said, "Please also ask the king to hand over the remaining places to our department, and tomorrow our department will select suitable soldiers, but it is only eighty miles a day, and the soldiers under his command will definitely be able to do it!" ”

Liu Tai nodded when he heard Wang Sang's words, to be honest, he just wanted Wang Sang to participate.

Zhou Ping took his subordinates to win Shile with him, not to mention the money earned by Peng Man, but the merits are here.

And Wang Sang came belatedly, instead of besieging here, it is better to let his soldiers fight Liu Yao, so as to earn meritorious service.

As for Zhao An, whoever made him still fight in the state now, and he still needs to get through Taihang Mountain after the battle.

One step is slow, one step is slow, if he can't catch up, he won't have this opportunity, even Liu Tai can't help it, otherwise Zhao An can join in.

But that's how it is to fight, when the opportunity is there, and you are not there, then there is really no way.

Of course, even if this is the case, with Zhao An's exploits in winning Jinyang, and even winning Taihang Mountain, there is no problem with what the marquis is, it is better than a lost general, there is ability, there is an opportunity, but I don't know why, I just can't seize the opportunity.

Let Zhou Ping defeat Shi Le once this time, and if Wang Sang defeats Liu Yao again, it can be regarded as dividing up the battle to some extent.

And Zhou Ping also understands this truth, it is impossible to let himself take any meritorious service, as if he can't take advantage of all good things, so Zhou Ping naturally does not have any intention of competition at this moment.

After the meeting, the people made up their minds, and immediately went to the ministries to begin to convey the order.

Liu Tai, on the other hand, asked the Huotou army to start preparing dry food for the soldiers preparing for the expedition, that is, sun-dried fried tea, fried noodles ground into powder, and air-dried pieces of meat.

If it was in the camp, relying on the astonishing carrying capacity brought by water transportation, the soldiers could basically still eat hot food.

However, if you are performing tasks that require running, you will need to use these to allocate the corresponding rations.

The latter two are relatively common in Liu Tai's army, but because they eat too much, their lips will crack, and the soldiers will get angry.

However, the tea planted in the mountains south of Linzi was gradually harvested after accumulation in recent years, and tea began to be added to military supplies.

To tell the truth, the good things of any era basically develop in the barracks first.

No way, the military is almost the embodiment of the level of productivity of the entire organization.

The strength of an organization can be seen by basically looking at their armed personnel.

Liu Tai knew very well that his army had nationalism as the ideological guidance, the government military system to ensure the logistics of the soldiers, and the military law to deter their illegal behavior, but at the same time he advocated humanistic care, and united the soldiers as much as possible to change the bad habit of beating and scolding the superiors and subordinates.

This makes his army very good both in terms of organization and its own quality.

A journey of 80 miles a day may sound like a lot, but Liu Tai believes that his soldiers can do it.

Even if Sun Tzu said that if you fight for profit for a hundred miles, you will capture the three generals, the strong one will come first, and the tired one will come later; Fifty miles and fight for profit, then the general will be on the top, and his law will be half to; Thirty miles and for profit, two-thirds to.

Any general who does not want to become a mediocre general who does nothing must find a way to jump out of the trap of Sun Tzu's Art of War.

Among them, those who have done well have become seventy-two generals, and those who can change Sun Tzu's Art of War can become the Four Sages or Ten Sages.

Liu Tai knows very well that what Sun Tzu said is not wrong, or for any general, Sun Tzu's Art of War is like the righteous way of mind, and when you want to inherit something on the way of war, you go back to Sun Tzu's Art of War.

But the problem is that Liu Tai also knows what the ceiling of his army is.

They were able to carry almost 20 pounds of goods on their backs, march 50 to 60 kilometers a day, and became the pinnacle of light infantry.

Although the nationalism he put forward may not be as advanced as the revolutionary ideas of the future, in this era when there is no even the idea of the army, the ideological blessings brought by this are in themselves groundbreaking.

Not to mention that they did not treat the soldiers badly in terms of food, and after three or four years of raising, their physique was definitely the best among all the soldiers.

At least this kind of thing is running and running and lying down directly to die, I don't dare to say that it won't happen, but it is definitely a very minority.

That kind of thing of running and running and getting lost, Liu Tai believes that it will not appear.

For if they run away and die, they will be counted as martyrs, and their acres of land will be passed on to their children, and their children will receive the best education for the common people of this era.

But if the military historians can't find your body, and they can't find any trace of you when they call your name, they will think you are deserters.

And under Liu Tai's military system, the army is almost the only way to rise in this society from top to bottom, not to mention that your family and children will be disgraced from now on, and even your children will not be able to get a promotion in the army in the future, which is an unbearable burden for any ordinary people.

Because they are willing to endure hardships and work hard, but their descendants are often their biggest weakness.

Especially for the sons of good families who have become good families and can have land and property to hand over to their children to inherit, they would rather die by themselves than cause their descendants to be inferior and can only engage in lowly karma because of their own reasons.

Therefore, it is inappropriate to use Sun Tzu's Art of War to set Liu Tai's army.

And it is beyond the framework of Sun Tzu's Art of War, so it will surprise Liu Yao and others, so that Liu Tai has the possibility of success.

Wang Sang brought Liu Tai's order to recruit another 10,000 people to follow him, and Wang Sang also honestly told his soldiers the standard of traveling 80 miles a day.

Let them know that if they can't do this, then don't squeak me even if they run to death, or you will kill them with a knife.

And Wang Sang did this for a reason.

Because Wang Sang's army quality is not bad to be honest, he has always been stationed on the front line, whether it is with Wang Jun, or with Shi Lekong Chang and others, and he has slowly accumulated a lot of veterans of a hundred battles by relying on the medical battalion.

In terms of average quality, it should be regarded as the longest experienced corps in Liu Tai's army.

But the problem is that Wang Sang's army is mostly engaged in defensive battles, or defensive counterattacks.

This makes long-distance running not something that Wang Sang's army is good at, so Wang Sang understands that if he wants to carry out this mission, he needs not only the experience of being good at fighting, but also the consciousness of running even if he dies along the way!

All Liu Tai's army, as long as it reaches the level of the tun team, there is a military history, which is dedicated to popularizing Han history, guiding the national thinking of the soldiers and soldiers, and letting them know that they are fighting for the rise of the Han Dynasty.

In the process, they can also gain benefits, so that the future of the individual and the mission of the nation are integrated, and this impression is reinforced under the system of the government and military system.

Even so, if the will acts on the body, can the soldiers reach eighty miles a day, Liu Tai believes that it can, but Wang Sang is not sure.

Therefore, let the soldiers come voluntarily, and when the military order is given, don't regret the decision you made.

Of course, a single person is not qualified to make a decision, and the decision is made by the tun commander and the tun team with the military history as the supreme commander.

In fact, the number of people who signed up far exceeded Wang Sang's expectations, in Wang Sang's opinion, this is really extremely difficult, but for his subordinates, Liu Tai gave himself the direction of struggle and gave himself enough economic security.

Now there is a difficulty in front of him, and Liu Tai needs them to keep up with him, and then go together to destroy Liu Yao.

How could the fighters not want to go.

Not to mention how many merits he can obtain after killing Liu Yao, the most important thing is that Liu Tai himself is already a god of war for the soldiers.

After all, have you ever seen Liu Tai defeat in the past ten years?

Since there is no one, if you miss this opportunity, how can you get this steady feat.

Not to mention, even if they die in battle, Liu Tai can ensure the survival of their descendants, for the simple soldiers of this era, now Liu Tai needs himself, and he can't wait to hand over his life, so what are you hesitating about!

Wang Sang looked at the enthusiasm of the soldiers under his command, and felt that these soldiers were obviously soldiers brought out by himself!

Why did they hear that it was Liu Tai who led the team this time, and they became so fanatical one by one, and they even wanted to take out their lives.

Originally, Wang Sang thought that the volunteers who were willing to go this time might not be able to make up 10,000, and he would have to fill in more with his own personal guards.

But in fact, almost all the cantonment teams chose to follow as soon as they received the notice, which gave Wang Sang a kind of first time to know his own army, and even the first time to know the military system built by Liu Tai.

What kind of merit is the master, for Liu Tai, this is probably a complete joke.

Wang Sang couldn't help but let go of a little strange thoughts, after all, even if Wang Sang was a relative to some extent, he was not a real relative in the end.

Compared with Zhao An and Zhou Ping, Wang Sang's relationship is the farthest, but now looking at the fanaticism of his subordinates for Liu Tai, Wang Sang understands very well that as long as he completes the tasks assigned by Liu Tai, don't think about what he has or not.

As long as Liu Tai is alive, the generals who rely on Liu Tai's military system will not be able to escape Liu Tai's palm.

Thinking of this, Wang Sang couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and even recruited fifteen thousand soldiers at one time, because they really couldn't run.

Liu Tai didn't know how much Wang Sang's psychology had changed in this conscription.

However, on the second day, after the soldiers had eaten the morning dynasty and received the prepared dry food and salt water prepared in bamboo tubes from the Huotou army, they set off on the march under Liu Tai's orders.
