Chapter Seventy-Six: Fear (I)
Qian County.
Shangguan Chengcheng stood on the corner tower of the barracks, looking in the direction of the official road outside the camp, and there was no expression on his pale face as white as snow. There are troops marching on the official road, the torrent of iron armor is like a dragon like a river, the flag covers the sun, and the smoke and dust are billowing.
That's Liu Zhijun's part.
Of course, Shangguan Allure knew that Liu Zhijun was one of the best generals under Li Maozhen.
If Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Nianci represent the highest level of military generals, then Liu Zhijun is the pinnacle of Li Maozhen's generals. This person has followed Li Maozhen to fight for many years, and is not only an absolute veteran in terms of qualifications, but also rare in terms of combat performance.
The place where Liu Zhijun was going to attack was Suzhou in the south of Wuning.
Conquering Suzhou, controlling the Huai River, cutting off the grain route of the Wu army, and isolating the Wu army from Huainan were the most important tasks in completing the plan to gather and annihilate the Wu army in Wuning.
Originally, it was supposed to be Shangguan Allure who led the Wolf Tooth Army to attack Suzhou.
Now, she could only watch Liu Zhijun's army walk by in front of the barracks. Of course, there was no expression on her face, but several of the cronies and generals behind her gritted their teeth and resented.
"General, the great merit of capturing Suzhou and cutting off the back road of the Wu army should have been ours, why should we give it to these thieves!"
"Yes, General, the last general can't figure it out!"
"General, can you tell King An?"
In the face of the generals' complaints, Shangguan Chengcheng didn't answer a word as if he hadn't heard it.
She just said at the end: "There will always be battles, and when it comes time to use you, don't disappoint Your Highness." β
Hearing her words, the generals shouted louder.
"Where is there a battle? There is Zhao Nianci on the north road, and Liu Zhijun on the south road, and only after they succeed in the frontal attack will they cooperate with the Gunzhou side to carry out a full-scale attack, at that time, everyone is on the swarm, and we can't grab much meat at all!"
"Yes, General, our Wolf Tooth Army has always fought tough battles and made miraculous achievements!"
"There is no real strong enemy challenge, even if there is military merit, it is too small, and it is not enough for us to share ......"
The generals talked fiercely, as if they were about to mutiny. However, Shangguan Allure always had a calm face, and he didn't have the slightest intention of calming everyone's emotions.
Not long after, several horsemen came from the north and went straight to the big camp.
"It's His Highness's emissary!"
"Isn't there a new military order for us to go to war?"
When the generals saw the rider enter the gate, they couldn't help but have some kind of fantasy.
Shangguan Chengcheng walked down the corner tower without saying a word, and took the generals to the big tent of the Chinese army.
Soon, the messenger entered the account with a military order.
"King An has an order: Zhao Nianci's army defeated Xiao County, and Shangguan led the wolf's tooth army to Chengcheng, and immediately rushed to Songzhou after seeing this order, preparing to attack Dangshan ......"
Hearing the envoy's words, the generals immediately cheered up, and when Shangguan Chengcheng took over the military order, they laughed and discussed.
"I have said a long time ago that our general is the most trusted and relied on by His Royal Highness, and for such an important battle as attacking Wuning, how could there be no battle without our Wolf Tooth Army?"
"Zhao Nianci's girl has defeated Xiao County? Haha, I already knew she couldn't do it! No, the general has to take us to teach her how to fight!"
β......β
......
A few days later, the second vanguard army, with the Wolf Tooth Army as the core, marched from Songzhou to Dangshan.
Last time, Zhao Nianci led Hezhong
The army was the vanguard, and it was originally to be stationed on the spot after capturing Dangshan and Xiaoxian, and to defend the bridgehead for the follow-up army to conquer Xuzhou. After Zhao Nianci's army was defeated, the follow-up army had to retreat.
This time, Shangguan Allure led the army to the expedition, in addition to the 30,000 soldiers of the Wolf Tooth Army, the main force of the previous army had to transfer a part of the elite to supplement the vanguard army. The troops that were replenished, except for a part of the Pinglu Army, were mainly composed of the Tianping Army and the Zhongwu Army, and the strength was no less than 200,000.
Xue Wei of the Tianping Army is a veteran who followed the Pinglu Army, and after several wars, the Tianping Army is naturally the elite. In contrast, the Zhongwu army was a little worse, and when the Shu army attacked before, they held it for a day or two and then withdrew. However, during the Huangchao Rebellion, the Zhongwu Army also fought with Li Ye, and the foundation was not bad.
In addition to Xue Wei and Zhou Mingrui, there was another person who was riding a horse with Shangguan Chengcheng.
Zhao Nianci.
Her current identity is a pawn under Shangguan Allure, and she has no military position at all, and the role given to her in the army is Shangguan Allure's personal soldier. She is completely driven by Shangguan Allure, not to mention, she also has to ensure that Shangguan Allure is thorough, once Shangguan Allure has any mistakes, she will be the first to lose her head.
This is called a pawn.
Shangguan Allure has always been silent, and Xue Wei has long been familiar with it, so at this time, he is chatting with Zhou Mingrui about the battle situation, and occasionally asks a few words about Shangguan Allure, and they judge whether they are right. In this way, Zhao Nianci has become an outsider, as if he is indeed regarded as a pawn, rather than a military wizard.
This made Zhao Nianci always gloomy all the way, how ugly it was.
That's it, because Zhou Mingrui is not close to Li Ye, he always praises the Pinglu Army intentionally or unintentionally in his words, and when it comes to the battle in front of him, he can't help but sneer at Zhao Nianci, who was defeated in Xiao County.
At the time, people often compared the generals under the command of King Qi with the Confucian generals under Gao Biao, saying that the two were equal. The former focuses on frontal fighting, whether it is a battle or a city attack and defense, it has extraordinary abilities, while the latter focuses on strategy and calculation, and it is rumored that the real Confucian will be able to strategize and win thousands of miles. β
Zhou Mingrui laughed and continued: "But in my opinion, it seems that there is a clear difference between frontal fighting and strategizing, otherwise Dangshan would not be in the hands of Wu Jun at the moment." What do you say, Xue Shuai?"
Xue Wei said with a smile: "I don't know who is stronger between King Qi and King Wu, and who is better between the soldiers and the Confucians." I only know that compared with the Anwang tribe, whether it is the Liberation Gate or the Dao Gate, it is not worth mentioning. Since Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are tied on the front line, it is naturally similar. β
"Exactly. Zhou Mingrui nodded again and again, "If not, there will be no such thing as us going to attack Dangshan, haha!"
Listening to this insinuation that the soldiers and the king of Qi are incompetent, in order to highlight the strong and extraordinary strength of King An's subordinates, flattering Shangguan Allure and flattering Li Ye, Zhao Nianci couldn't wait to cut off his ears.
But she can't refute it yet, who called Xiao County's defeat her own?
She has no say at all now, and forcibly quibbling will only lead to more ridicule, so she can only endure these humiliations in silence.
When he was resting at noon, Zhao Nianci couldn't wait to turn his horse's head, wanting to stay away from Shangguan Chengcheng and the others, so as not to listen to Xue Wei and Zhou Mingrui's noiseβeven if it was only for a moment of purity.
However, before she could take two steps, she heard a scolding: "Zhao Nianci, where are you going? Haven't you seen the general when he is ready to rest? As a pawn of the general, why don't you go and serve dry food and water?"
β
It was a pro-soldier in Shangguan Allure.
The team is right, and there are only more than 20 corporals under his command, and now he is even yelling at Zhao Nianci.
Zhao Nianci turned his head and stared at the young team, his eyes full of murderous anger.
The team was not afraid of her eyes, and sneered: "What, do you want to make the following mistakes? If you have the guts, come and try to see if the military law will tolerate you! If you don't have the guts, hurry up and serve the general, don't be an eyesore here!"
Zhao Nianci was so angry that his face was red, and his chest rose and fell violently.
In the end, she still chose to serve Shangguan Allure.
She can not be afraid of death, but if she is killed by military law, don't say that death is not worth it, and the soldiers will lose face if it is spread out.
She can only and must endure humiliation and steal her life.
After she turned around, she also heard the cynicism of the young team: "As the chief general of the army, the loss of troops is 200,000, and one person escapes back, and he still wants to be angry, it is really shameless!"
This harsh words were heard by Zhao Nianci, her figure paused, and she silently clenched her fists and bowed her head.
Two lines of tears welled up in their eyes.
She stretched out her hand to wipe the tears from her cheeks, gritted her teeth and went to get dry food and water, and buried her head in the place where Shangguan was resting.
"Sit down. β
Shangguan Chengcheng took the dry food handed over by Zhao Nianci, "Tell me about the situation of Dangshan and Wu Jun." β
Zhao Nianci didn't sit down, standing on the side of Shangguan Chengcheng like a stone carving, and said in a stiff tone: "The general of the defeated army, what is there to say." β
Shangguan Chengcheng unscrewed out the water bladder plug, drank two sips of water, and handed the bag to the other party, "I said when I was in Qian County, it doesn't matter to me how you fight in Dangshan, as long as you don't let me clean up the mess for you." β
Her mind flashed Zhao Nianci's proud appearance in the military tent at that time, compared with Zhao Nianci, who was lost in front of her, and it was naturally a world of difference.
Shangguan Chengcheng continued: "Now that the military order is in place, I have to collect this mess if I don't take it, and this battle must be won if it can't be won." Not for you, but for the 200,000 soldiers who died, for the overall situation of the war. So, you have to cooperate. β
200,000 soldiers...... Zhao Nianci took the water bladder, gritted his teeth, raised his head and looked directly at Shangguan Allure, and said word by word: "The combat power of the Wu army is not very prominent, only Sun Ru is the only one...... This person is very talented, and there are few people in the world who can compare with him!"
"Oh? β
......
After half a ring, Shangguan Chengcheng glanced at Zhao Nianci, "In this way, do you think Wu Jun will meet the battle when he learns that I am leading my troops to attack, and with Sun Ru's mental ability?"
Zhao Nianci thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "The Wu army is not strong, the strong is the sailor, and the only possibility for him to keep Dangshan is to defend the city to the death, and rely on the strong city defense to consume the military strength of our army." At the same time, send sailors to infiltrate the upper reaches of Surabaya and attack our army's food routes!"
When Shangguan Chengcheng heard this, he immediately shook his head: "No." β
"Won't?" Zhao Nianci was stunned, "Sun Ru is not like this, what else can he do?"
Shangguan Chengcheng said calmly: "If it were other generals who went to war, Sun Ru might have acted like this, but this time it was me who led the army to Dangshan." β
Speaking of the last two words, although Shangguan Chengcheng's tone has not changed, he is confident and domineering in his life.
"What if it's you, will he be afraid of you?" Zhao Nianci laughed.
Shangguan Chengcheng was still in a flat and straightforward tone, which showed that she felt that she was expressing a fact that did not need to be questioned, "He will." β
