Chapter 060: Clever Tactics (Part I)
Hu Wei came out of the handsome tent only to find that the clothes behind him were all soaked with cold sweat...... At that moment, Hu Wei could clearly feel Sumadar's murderous aura, and he knew very well in his heart that if his reaction was slower at that time, his head would immediately have to be placed in a different place.
"Whew, it's still not qualitative enough, if the master is here, he will definitely be scolded again. β
Hu Wei returned to the house and drank a whole pot of tea before he really settled down on this heart. Thinking back to the situation just now, until now, Hu Wei still felt a little afraid.
After composing himself, Hu Wei began to think carefully about his new task. This task handed over by Sumatra is the biggest crisis in his life for Hu Wei.
It is very dangerous to cut off the enemy's grain and grass in enemy-controlled areas. It was a completely field life, with no supplies, no support, except for three thousand soldiers, it could be said that there was nothing, and the only thing that was not lacking was the endless enemy. This is completely a trick to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth, annoying the Anrong people, and it is not impossible to send a large army to chase and kill thousands of miles. Its dangerous process is dΓΉ, nine deaths and one life are not enough to describe, and if it is not done well, it is ten deaths and no life.
But in the midst of crisis, there are great opportunities. Not to mention the benefits of being promoted to a partial general and leading 3,000 troops. Just under the circumstance that all the armies in Qingzhou are now cowering in the two cities of Linggui and Dongdu, and do not dare to fight, Hu Wei led the army to deal with Anrong in the enemy-controlled area, which is enough for Hu Wei to become famous and famous. If this is widely publicized, Hu Wei will have countless admirers. This will help him in the future, which is unimaginable.
It can be said that as long as Hu Wei can not die, he is a hero-like character. This point is very important to Hu Wei. The reason why Rijkaard was able to overthrow the Bauhinia Empire and establish his own dynasty was inseparable from his popularity among the people in Zhongzhou at that time.
As the saying goes, the greater the danger, the greater the benefit. If he could, Hu Wei would have liked to choose something else, but he didn't have a choice now. If he goes, he may not necessarily die, and if he doesn't, then Sumental will definitely not let him go. Since you have to go, you must have a careful plan. A plan does not necessarily lead to success, and without a plan, it will definitely be difficult to succeed. Since he has already paid for the danger of his life, of course Hu Wei wants to get the greatest benefit.
Sumendal gave Hu Wei three days to prepare, and it took Hu Wei half a day to make a rough outline of the plan. Fortunately, this cut off the enemy's food and grass is a little simpler, but it is just an enlarged version of stealing chickens and dogs, only the difference is the goal and the consequences of failure. The purpose of stealing chickens and dogs is to steal chickens and dogs without others finding out, and the consequences of failure are mostly beaten. The goal of cutting off grain and grass is to destroy the enemy's grain and grass, and the consequence of defeat is death. Of course, if you run away, you don't have to die. It doesn't matter what others think or think, but that's what Hu Wei thinks, because it makes him feel more relaxed.
"Jebel, go and get Hou San for me. Hu Wei closed the plan in his hand and commanded.
"Yes, General. β
Hou San was drinking tea near Hu Wei's house, and Jebel quickly found him and brought him to Hu Wei.
The whole army knew about Hu Wei's promotion to a partial general. It's just that not many people know about Hu Wei's task.
"Your Excellency. Hou San saluted Hu Wei. The salute of Hou San is different from that of others, and the salute of others is with a position, but Hou San is only called 'adult', without a position. This is what Hu Wei asked him to do, in order to see closeness.
"Hou San, I have something for you to do. β
"Your Excellency, you command. β
"I was ordered by the commander of the Sumen Dar Army to form a new unit. I'll leave it to you to handle the selection issue. I want you to find 3,000 of the 80,000 soldiers who have returned to the city in two days. Be good at archery, fast, smart, or have special abilities, in short, be a good soldier. Hu Wei ordered.
This was the only preferential treatment Hu Wei received from Sumadar, and he could use the general order to find his own soldiers on his own, and anyone below the rank of the army could do it. However, Hu Wei also has his own ideas.
Hou San asked, "My lord, do you want a general?"
Hu Wei replied: "As long as the soldiers, at most to the husband, not up." You don't have to go to the original subordinates of the third column, they are all assigned to my direct team. "The biggest difference between a partial general and a lieutenant is not the number of troops he leads, but the fact that he can be qualified to set up his own government and set up his own accounts, and set up directly subordinate troops and staff officers.
"The last general ordered that all the best soldiers be selected into our troops. β
"Let's go. β
Hu Wei also did not ask San how to choose soldiers, because Hu Wei believed that Hou San had the ability to do this well. Intelligence news, but Hou San's specialty. If he can't even do this little thing, he won't have a place in the army in the future.
Hou San walked out of Hu Wei's room with the arrow, and his heart was very happy. The same arrow, held in his hand a few days ago, symbolized by the captain, but now in his hand, it will be a general.
The most important thing is to follow the right big brother. Hou San was very happy, and he followed Hu Wei right. Hu Wei is rising step by step, and Hou San has eyes to see. Not long after enlisting in the army, he was already a partial general, which is how many people can't reach Cheng dΓΉ in a lifetime.
Although Hou San himself is still only a small husband, he has never worried about his future, he knows better than anyone else that Hu Wei takes a fancy to him, and only by following Hu Wei is that promotion is inevitable.
In fact, although Hou San is only a husband now, in the third column, even Riquelme, the pawn, is very polite to him. What is the reason for this, Hou San knows it. If it weren't for Hu Wei, no one would treat him as a character.
It is precisely because of this that Hou San constantly reminded himself in his heart that he must not pretend to be an old subordinate. In front of Hu Wei, Hou San never posed as an old comrade-in-arms. He always told himself that Hu Wei could treat him as a brother, but he couldn't take Hu Wei as a brother without his might, he had to treat Hu Wei as his boss and do his best to complete every task assigned by Hu Wei.
Those who dare to pat their bosses on the shoulder and call them brothers and sisters by virtue of a little relationship back then often die ugly.
"Lord Hu Wei is really good, but it's a pity, it's just that Qinglou's luck is a little worse. It's time to get to work. Hou San smiled and put away the arrow given by Hu Wei.
Within two days, out of 80,000 people, finding 3,000 people who met Hu Wei's requirements may seem difficult to others, but in Hou San's opinion, it is not too difficult. For finding people, Hou San has his own set of methods.
"Husband, look at your red face, and get a new task. A soldier looked at the third and said with a smile.
Hou San said proudly: "Of course." In front of Hu You, he couldn't show anything, but in front of his own soldiers, Hou San didn't care about letting the soldiers know that he was close to Hu You.
"Husband, what is the good task this time?" the soldier asked secretly. For Hou Sanneng to often do things for Hu Wei, these soldiers under Hou San are very envious.
Hou San completely followed Hu Wei's practice back then, and the uniforms of the nine soldiers under his command were adjusted to fit. Although Hou San had no money and no chance to invite his subordinates to drink flower wine, he used his hunting expertise to find meat in Huanglong Road, which was enough for the soldiers to die on him.
Hou San said mysteriously:
"You also have a part in this mission. β
"Do we have a share?" the soldier excited. To be able to help Lord Hu Wei do things, that is the glory of the third column. It's very face-saving to say it.
"Captain Hou, what did Lord Hu Wei tell us to do?" a soldier asked.
Hou San waved his hand in an official manner and said, "Go and go, call the others, and when the people are here, I will tell you again." "There were only five soldiers in the battalion, and four of them had not returned.
The soldiers searched for a while, and when they heard that they were going to do something for Lord Hu Wei, the soldiers rushed back one by one.
Hou San looked at the nine soldiers under him, and said in the same way as Hu You: "Brothers, this time I have brought back a glorious and arduous task for our group. β
"This task is good, it is to give us the face of the team leader, and Lord Hu Wei will remember us. If it can't be done, hehe, your husband and my head have to be moved, and yours have to be moved. β
"Husband, just tell me what is the matter, we will do it with you, there will definitely be no problem. β
"Well, since everyone is quite confident, I'll sue you, Lord Hu Wei wants us" Hou San asked Hu Wei to carefully tell the nine soldiers under SΓΉ. He can't do this alone, he must use the power of the collective.
"Husband, in two days, 3,000 people out of 80,000 people will be selected, this is too difficult. β
"That's it, sir, we don't know them, how to choose. β
When the soldiers heard about the mission, they all felt that it was a bit difficult to do.
"So you are small soldiers, I am the husband, if you want to do this well, you have to use your brains, otherwise just looking at the name is enough for us to watch for a week, then it will be a fart."
Listen to you, I'll teach you. We don't know the specialties of those soldiers, the people in those troops, don't we understand? Just like our third column, who doesn't know that Jebe is good at archery.
You can only get a lot of information if you just find someone from another army to get close to you. After finding the first group of people, you told them that Lord Hu Wei had received an order from the commander of the regiment to form a new army. With Lord Hu Wu's reputation in the army, there are many soldiers who want to join Lord Hu Wu's account.
With the first people on board, things are much easier. You can ask them to inquire, just join in, join again, roll all the way, take one by one, not to mention 3,000, 30,000 can get out. "Hou San gave his brother a plan.
