Chapter 50: Sending Troops
The matter has not yet been dealt with, and I didn't expect to receive more troublesome news immediately.
"What are you talking about!" the bearded face changed drastically, and he stepped forward and picked up the messenger.
"Changguo sent troops on the third road, and the commander was trapped in Langkou Mountain, asking for support!"
The messenger spoke loudly again, looking at the beard with the same complexion, panting and extremely determined. Seeing that his hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn, and his flesh was turned over from several wounds on his body, it was obvious that he had gone through a lot of suffering to deliver this letter.
"How is that possible!" exclaimed the bearded man, "If you want to surround the boss, you need at least five times as many people." Even if Langkou Mountain is easy to attack and difficult to defend, it will take at least three times as many people, is Dong Cifeng ready to give up all other places?"
In this battle, General Qi Shaohu led a lot of men and horses, not to mention winning steadily, but it was impossible to be surrounded by people. Unless the opposing coach makes a desperate bet and brings in all the people from other places.
But as long as there is a little sanity, no one will do this, once Qi Shaohu desperately defends, gives up support, and lets the rest of the horses kill all the other fronts of Changguo, I am afraid that there will be a disaster of destroying the country.
The spy shook his head vigorously: "The subordinates don't know, the subordinates only know that there are a lot of people, I'm afraid it's more than three times!"
"More than three times!" the men repeated, looking at each other with a look of astonishment, and the beard also put the spy down.
"You go down and rest first!" the elegant man instructed the spies, and then looked at the other two, with a deep face: "What do you two think?"
General Wang immediately took out a brown paper map and spread it on the table, found Langkou Mountain, pointed at it with his finger, looked at the other two and said, "No matter what, I must support." ”
The elegant man took a breath: "I'm wondering, did Dong Cifeng really send people from other places, or did he get reinforcements from somewhere?"
"If you really turn the men and horses from other places over......" As he spoke, the elegant man scratched his finger on the map a few times: "Let General Qi defend with all his might, we only need to send troops from these places, drive straight in, and smash Huanglong, and this war will be over." ”
"I'm sorry, I won't do this!" General Wang shook his head without hesitation: "Langkou Mountain is not a good place to defend, General Qi was forced to defend this place, it can be seen that the situation is quite critical, I'm afraid I won't be able to defend it for too long." ”
"Don't you believe in General Qi's abilities?" the elegant man asked, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end this war that has lasted for more than ten years. Once successful, our credit is indescribable, and it is not a problem to pay homage to the prime minister. ”
"And once we have copied the enemy's rear, we can hold the people of Changguo in our hands. If the relatives are in prison, it will inevitably disturb the morale of the Changguo army, and they can only rush back to rescue when the time comes. If we wait for work, we can succeed in one battle. ”
"Don't take us for fools!" General Wang pointed to the map and said in a deep voice: "Even if there is no accident, marching at the fastest speed and no one will stop us, even if we run to Changguo, it will take more than a month." Once something goes wrong on the road, it's two months. ”
"Two months, why two months, as long as half a month, General Qi will definitely be doomed. Are you addicted to calculations, and at this time, you still want to sacrifice General Qi. ”
The elegant man immediately slapped it on the table: "Presumptuous, I am the Dingcheng supervisor sent by the king himself, and it is my duty to supervise the army to find an opportunity to win, how can you talk nonsense." ”
"Is this the case, you know it in your own heart!" General Wang did not back down: "Now that I have the right to command the army of Dingcheng, you can only suggest, I will not accept it." ”
"Do you want to rebel?"
The elegant man shouted loudly, he was the overseer, in fact, he was just supervising these generals. Under normal circumstances, he can arrange what many generals do, but it is only the generals. In his capacity, it was simply impossible to mobilize the army.
"You just have to report it, it's a big deal that I give you this life!" General Wang sneered, not caring at all, already showing an open appearance.
"You ......" The elegant man was furious, but he was helpless.
The beard on the side frowned and thought, not knowing what he was thinking. The atmosphere in the whole room was a little strange for a while, and the silence was terrifying.
After a while, I heard Xu Fan cringe and say, "That, I'll say something!"
"Huh?"
The three adults suddenly came back to their senses, as if they had only remembered that the two had not left yet.
"What you want to say is nothing more than a question of saving or fighting!" Xu Fan pointed to the map and said, "Why do you think that the men and horses from other places have been transferred? The enemy is not stupid, it is impossible not to think of the consequences of doing this." ”
General Wang and Luo Huhu did not speak, only the elegant man said coldly: "If he succeeds in the first battle, we don't have time to support, and we don't attack his hinterland, General Qi's army is annihilated, and my Ji country is the general trend has gone, don't say that it will attack in the future, and we can't defend it." With such a big benefit, it's worth the gamble. ”
Xu Fan shook his head with a smile on his face, slowly walked to the map, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid this adult thinks too much, everyone knows how much benefit it will be once successful, but why has the other party's coach not used it for so many years, but at this time it is used so simply?"
"Take another 10,000 steps back, let me ask this adult, if you are the coach and have the opportunity to besiege the opposing coach in Wolf's Mouth Mountain like this, will you do it?"
"Of course I ......" The elegant man was about to respond, but saw one of Xu Fan's fingers on the imperial capital of Jiguo.
I didn't understand what it meant, I was stunned, but after a while, I seemed to understand something, clenched my fists, and looked entangled, and finally I could only exhale, shake my head and say, "No!"
It's not that I think I'm going to lose, but even if I win, I won't end up well.
This tactic, a desperate gamble, is tantamount to opening the door to the country, gambling on one's reputation and future with the royal family and the community. No monarch would accept his courtiers risking their lives or the lives of their entire families to do such things, and even if they won, they would become the king's guard in the future.
Don't say that you have achieved fame, you are high-spirited, and you can get a good death.
Unless there is a rebellious heart, no one will do such a stupid thing, they will not, and the other party's coach will naturally not.
That being the case, there is only one reason why the opposing commander dares to act like this: he has enough men and horses to surround Qi Shaohu's army, and at the same time, he can also garrison various important places on the frontier front.
Although it is not known where these extra soldiers and horses come from, since this is the case, it is clear what to do at this time.
"Someone!" shouted General Wang, and immediately a guard rushed in.
"The school field beats the drums and counts the troops, ready to go to the battle!"
At the sound of an order, the entire Dingcheng immediately moved.
"Well done!" patted Xu Fan on the shoulder, and General Wang looked appreciative. If this guy hadn't opened his mouth to point out,
Xu Fan immediately laughed so much that his saliva was about to flow out, he laughed, and opened his mouth to say, "Is that a ......prize?"
Before he finished speaking, he was kicked away by his beard: "Dead turtle grandson!"
After scolding, he said to General Wang: "I'll go!"
General Wang shook his head: "You are not suitable for this matter, you should stay in the city to train recruits, and I will go to help." ”
The beard hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, and then said: "You have to be careful, I suspect that this matter has nothing to do with where the bronze medal came from." ”
General Wang's face stiffened, his brows furrowed even deeper, he could only nod, didn't say much, and then bowed to the elegant man: "Please leave the matter of the city to the supervisor, and send a letter to other cities as soon as possible, and quickly reinforce them." ”
Say goodbye to a few more people and go to the school grounds.
"Oh, my reward!"
Xu Fan never forgot it, and naturally attracted a heavy kick from his beard.
The commander was trapped, and the stakes were so high that General Wang took almost all the available soldiers and horses in the city with him, leaving only a few defenders and recruits.
The situation is urgent, the troops are insufficient, the training of new recruits is more urgent, and the intensity of everyone increases, but the cavalry battalion is the opposite.
Although he is only a cavalry governor, his qualifications are extremely old, and he is the first veteran to follow General Qi Shaohu to fight, and he has countless achievements. If it weren't for his temper, the official position would probably only be under Qi Shaohu.
On weekdays, because he was too reckless, he was taken out of his original position and specially trained recruits.
Now that such a major event has happened, he has no intention of training the cavalry battalion, so he simply called some veterans of the cavalry battalion who had slightly improved their injuries to come and teach these recruits to ride horses, and he went to deal with the battle reports sent back from the front every day.
The situation seems to be more serious than expected, and a month has passed, and there is no triumphant army, only the wounded who continue to be sent back from the front, and every day there are more and more wounded.
Yang Fanhai didn't know what he could do, so he could only devote himself to learning riding.
He is not badly qualified, and he is relatively intelligent, but there was no one to guide him before, so his progress was extremely slow. Now with the guidance of these veterans of the cavalry battalion, the progress is extremely fast, and in half a month, I can already gallop on a war horse.
The progress of other recruits is not slow, and there are some people who are already good at riding, such as Xu Fan.
This guy is not amazing, but he is a superb horseman, riding on horseback as if walking on the ground, not to mention the new soldiers, even those veterans are ashamed of themselves. He claims to be a genius, and from time to time he also serves as a coach to help train.
Clamping the saddle, Yang Fanhai is in a very good mood, he likes the feeling of riding on a horse and holding a spear, maybe he is naturally suitable for being a cavalryman.
"Report!"
A spy galloped on a war horse, crossed the street, and went directly to the Dingcheng military plane.
Looking at the embarrassed figure, Yang Fanhai couldn't help frowning, looking at this appearance, the battle situation on the front line is probably quite bad, and I don't know what to do.
But what is usually different is that after the spies entered the military aircraft department this time, the beard that had not been seen for a long time arrived at the school field and beat drums to gather troops.
At the same time, Yang Fanhai and other recruits also knew the information brought by the spy.
A Changguo army bypassed the front-line battlefield to surround Mengcheng, which was empty, and was in danger.
