After meeting with Emperor Zhu Shengxin of the Ming Dynasty in Lizhou City, and after attending the military meeting, Sun Ang, an old subordinate of Ma Shouying, was awarded the title of "General of the Yasukuni" by Prince Xiong, and then immediately crossed the river to the north and returned to Chengtianfu to prepare for war.

But he shouldered an important task, that is, when he passed by the camp of Tian Jianxiu, Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai, and Wu Ruyi, he made an appointment to meet these four generals who commanded the army.

According to Miao Sanguan's tactical design, the future battlefield must be placed in Jiangbei. However, the strength of the Xiong family army is limited, and it is not possible without Tian Jianxiu, Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai, and Wu Ruyi.

"General Tian, General Hao, General Wang, General Wu, the Dashun army collapsed on all fronts in less than a year, which is really suffocating. It can be seen that the so-called eighteen children sit in the world, I am afraid that it is deliberately fooling people. We have been fighting bloodily for more than 20 years, and it is really uncomfortable to end up with such a result. ”

This is an unbearable experience, and Sun Ang can't avoid it, so he can only put it simply, and stop at the point.

After a long sigh, Tian Jianxiu, Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai, and Wu Ruyi were silent.

"When Ge Li Yanhe Yilong was killed for no reason, although the old man suppressed it, our brothers had an opinion. Sun Ang's face was heavy: "When King Chuang went north, I had a lot of opinions. To be honest, I don't like to see the place where King Chuang is because he obeys Niu Jinxing and others. The final result proves that the bull Venus is unreliable. ”

Sun Ang's words were mentioned by Peng Wuying, of course, they mean something, and they also mean to open the topic.

Sure enough, Tian Jianxiu immediately raised his head and asked, "General Sun, you are now a big backer, of course it is enviable." We wolf bèi went south, and lost contact with all sides, I heard that our emperor suffered a big loss in the east, I don't know what happened, can General Sun give me some advice?"

Sun Ang nodded: "If this is the case, it is not a lie. General Liu Zongmin was ambushed by mistake, and after the former army camp completely collapsed, he was captured along with Song Xiance. King Chuang's Chinese army and Liu Fangliang's rear army also collapsed one after another, and King Chuang and Mrs. Gao were missing. Ma Jinzhong and Yuan Chongdi, two young generals, had nowhere to go, and now they have become members of the Xiong Family Army. ”

Hao Shaoqi asked, "General Sun, you have already met the Emperor of the Great Ming Kingdom. Can you give us an answer to what we said before? We have tens of thousands of people to eat, and it's imminent. ”

"Our emperor has something to say. Sun Ang nodded: "I don't know if I don't see it, there is a comparison to distinguish, Xiong Jiajun is different." Not only are military regulations and military discipline strict, but also the selection of members of the army is extremely strict. Our emperor said: You can save a while, but you can't save a lifetime. Those who can't save themselves are not worthy of being saved by outsiders. ”

Hao Shaoqi was young and vigorous, and his face suddenly looked bad: "According to this, a year ago we were still a family, and now that we have suffered a defeat, are you going to fall into the well to see the jokes?"

"Of course not that's what it meant. Sun Ang smiled: "Let's put aside the things of the past, now everyone is facing the same enemy, that is, the Manchu Tartars and those rebellions who have forgotten their sects." Since we have a common enemy, we are still a family, and no one will stand idly by and see death without help. ”

Tian Jianxiu can be described as a human being, and of course he heard the implication: "How should we save ourselves?"

Sun Ang nodded: "As the saying goes: to call Hanako to fight a dog, you have to find a wall to lean onto." With an army of tens of thousands of people, you will definitely not be able to do it without a foothold. However, the members of your team are complex and bloated, and they lose their mobility, which is fatal. ”

"Everyone knows that in the past few decades of natural and man-made disasters, no county can feed the sudden increase of tens of thousands of people. There are more than 50,000 of you, even if I can take out some of the food, and I can support it for a few days? ”

Hao Shaoqi shook his head, and his attitude was very resolute: "The healthy women's camp and the female dependents, follow us all the way to the battle, do you abandon them because you have no food to eat? As long as you are a man, you can't do this kind of thing, and I can't do it!"

This topic belongs to the battle of will, not the purpose of Sun Ang's here. But there were some things he couldn't say clearly, so he shook his head and didn't squeak, but looked at the old Tian Jianxiu.

Hao Shaoqi didn't hear the meaning of Sun Ang's words, but Tian Jianxiu had already heard it very clearly.

Tian Jianxiu did not speak immediately, but began to spin in circles with his hands behind his back. It's a difficult selection process, and he needs to be cautious.

The implication of a qiē is easy to say, and it also depends on the situation.

Twenty years ago, Xiong Chu was the killer of the rivers and lakes, so it was easy to say anything. Ten years ago, Xiong Chu was a wandering rebel with a lot to say.

Joint operation, this is a common strategy for the 108th Battalion to huddle together for warmth when it was facing difficulties.

But now it's different, Prince Xiong has ascended the throne and become emperor.

The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.

The self-help that Xiong Chu said actually means very clearly:

The first problem is that the army that drags its family and mouth cannot fight at all, so it needs to save itself. The way to save oneself is very simple, that is, to streamline the troops and increase mobility and combat effectiveness.

This involves how to deal with the problem of women and children's families, and it is also what Sun Ang said, "finding a wall as a backing to fight dogs", which belongs to the second problem.

The second problem is that one county cannot feed the sudden increase of tens of thousands of people, but there is more than one county in the Ming Kingdom. But to enter the territory of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, one needs an explanation.

This statement is actually very simple, that is, like Ma Guangyi and Sun Ang, directly join the Xiong family's army. Then the women and children can be sent to the rear of Jiangnan University, and the troops will naturally be flexible and mobile after throwing away their burdens.

When it was placed in the original one hundred and eight battalions, it was joined when it was joined, and when the time was ripe, it was to continue to separate and work alone, which was also the unspoken rule at the beginning.

But now it's different, because Prince Xiong is the emperor. Joining the Xiong Jiajun of the Great Ming Kingdom is to give up his original claims and powers, and to implement all the regulations and laws of the Great Ming Kingdom.

"General Sun is the chief general of Chengtianfu, and what you said about the way out for self-salvation is of course right. Tian Jianxiu carefully considered the words: "After all, it is a matter of the future of fifty or sixty thousand people, and the four of us cannot completely make the decision." I have a compromise solution, I wonder if General Sun thinks it is feasible?"

Sun Ang smiled slightly: "General Tian, but please make it clear, Sun will listen to it first." ”

Tian Jianxiu folded two fingers: "We have come all the way to the battle, and it doesn't matter if all the baggage is lost, but the weapons have also been lost and damaged, can your army support one or two? In addition, Jingmen is a place of four battles, easy to attack and difficult to defend, can we let our Chinese army women and children cross the river to the south first?"

"Yes!" Sun Ang did not hesitate at all: "Our emperor said, no matter how you decide your own way out in the future, now we all have a common enemy, and it is absolutely necessary to fight together." In order to improve your combat effectiveness, I was ordered to provide you with equipment for 20,000 people, and at the same time settle a month's worth of food and grass. But—"

Sun Ang dragged out a long note and did not continue.

Hao Shaoqi said: "As long as General Sun can provide appropriate ordnance, food and grass, of course we will obey the order and ensure the completion of the combat mission." General Sun, but please make it clear that there is no need to swallow. ”

Sun Ang shook his head: "You can't blame Sun for being mysterious, and he doesn't mean to blackmail you." This matter is not trivial, and there is a fear of life at every turn, and General Hao can't be full of words. ”

"The husband has a word, and the horse is difficult to chase. Hao Shaoqi said loudly: "If you die, you will die, so why be afraid?"

"Refreshing!" Sun Ang raised his thumb with his right hand: "It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that General Hao is brave and invincible, and Sun's ears have heard the calluses." But this time, the requirements are different, and the Dingguo General Miao Sanguan enforces the law like a mountain, I don't know if General Hao dares to lose the battle again?"

"Ha!" Hao Shaoqi straightened up: "When the old master Miao Sanguan was in Luoyang Bear's Ear Mountain, he defeated thousands of imperial court guards with only five hundred farmers, and the rivers and lakes called Zhuge Liang's resurrection. Since he is personally commanded by the old man, let alone defeat the battle, even if he wants my head now, there is no second word. ”

"Very good!" Sun Ang looked at Tian Jianxiu, Wang Jincai and Wu Ruyi again: "What else do the three generals say?"

The matter has come to this point, and if it doesn't work, it has to be done, so Tian Jianxiu, Wang Jincai and Wu Ruyi clasped their fists and said: "But there is a life, there is just death!"

Nodding, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and spread it out on the table, Sun Angcai said in a low voice: "Everyone, please see, Kong Youde's Chinese army camp is located in Xiangyang City. Sun Long's former army camp was in Yicheng, and Sun Yanling's vanguard had reached Kongjiawan to the west of the Han River. ”

"Dingguo General Miao Sanguan believes that if you want to cut off the tail of the pursuers, you must kill more than 24,000 people in Sun Long's former army camp. However, the topography here is very unfavorable for both sides, with the Han River to the east and the hills to the west, and there is only one road to go from north to south. ”

"There is no way for both the enemy and us to deploy troops in this place, and there is no way to conduct a large-scale war of annihilation. In view of this, Miao Sanguan hoped that General Hao would be able to go forward to meet Sun Yannian's forward troops. ”

"But General Hao must remember: this time the lure of the enemy must not only be realistic, but also defeat but not victory. After leading Sun Yanling's forward troops to the front line of Fangma Mountain, General Hao could no longer take half a step back, and he must be blocked to death. I wonder if General Hao dares to go?"

"Isn't it just a seventeen-year-old Sun Yanling, a year younger than me. Hao Shaoqi stood tall and said: "Although I have lost five battles in a row in his hands, it is not that I can't beat him, but because of the drag of the Chinese army's family and family, I dare not let go of the battle." Sun Yanling, this kid, thought that Lao Tzu was afraid of him, so it would be better for me to lure the enemy. ”

Sun Ang smiled: "Haha, as long as you are a person in the rivers and lakes, no one has ever doubted that General Hao can't win against Sun Yanling's half-grown son." In this case, General Hao will go out and select 5,000 elite soldiers to get ready, and set off tonight. ”

"Attack Sun Yanling's camp in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and then retreat all the way to the river beach east of Fangma Mountain for the final blockade. General Hao rest assured that when you can't support it, reinforcements will definitely arrive on time to help. ”

"The last general commands!" Hao Shaoqi hugged his fist at Sun Ang, turned around and opened the room.

"General Tian don't worry!" Seeing that Tian Jianxiu wanted to speak, Sun Ang waved his hand: "Since it is to lure the enemy, of course you can't change the clothes of Hao Shaoqi's troops." In two hours, what you need will arrive, but the three generals have a lot of work to do. ”

"From now on, the old and weak women and children stranded in Jingmen County will begin to move south, and then cross the river south in Jiangling. Starting tomorrow at noon, the three generals will act according to the plan and must not make mistakes. Otherwise, it will be a pot of raw rice, or even turn into another big rout. ”

Tian Jianxiu, Wang Jincai, and Wu Ruyi heard that the ordnance, grain, and grass would arrive soon, and their hearts immediately burst into joy: "One qiē obeys General Sun's dispatch, but if there is an order, a certain person will definitely die!"
