Chapter 193: March
On the official road, the mighty army is marching forward.
Song Yu's army mostly uses red to respond to fire virtue, which looks like a red snake from a distance, crawling slowly on the ground.
In the army, Ye Jianfeng rode his horse to inspect the circle, and saw that the soldiers were in good spirits and neat in ranks, so he nodded in his heart, and saw another place, but he frowned a little.
As soon as the whip was drawn, the horse galloped quickly, and took Ye Jianfeng to the army center.
"Why does my uncle seem to have something on his mind?" Here, hundreds of iron horsemen surrounded the guards, and there was one person in the center, riding a jujube red horse, with armor on his body, it was Ye Hongyan, but at this time, his brows were frowned, and his face was a little gloomy.
"It's Jianfeng!" The nephew's voice, with the enthusiasm unique to young people, and the feeling of worry, can be called pure loyalty, so that Ye Hongyan listened to it, his heart was very comfortable, and his brows were slightly expanded.
But he did not answer, and asked, "How is the situation of our army?"
This is the right matter, Ye Jianfeng didn't dare to slack off, and said solemnly: "General Qiyu, our army was full of food just now, and after resting, and now on the road, they are full of energy and high morale......
"Okay! A soldier is a general's courage! With this kind of elite soldier, it is the fundamental ...... for our generals to use their lives," Ye Hongyan said.
"My subordinates understand!" Although Ye Jianfeng already knew these truths in his heart, his uncle still listened respectfully when he mentioned it.
Later, the more solemn his heart became, because what Ye Hongyan said was the experience of actually governing the army, although Ye Jianfeng had talent and was familiar with military books, he did not have such knowledge, and he only felt that he had benefited a lot. Hurry up and keep your spirit in mind.
Ye Hongyan's attitude lifted his spirits. Although this nephew is talented, he is a young man after all, and he lacks experience, and some theories are passed on by the soldiers at the door, and they do not fall into words, and Ye Hongyan has also suffered some losses before. After many detours, I got some true meaning, and now I am teaching it to you.
"The art of war in the book. The actual method of administering the army must be adapted to the conditions of the time and be real! This combination of the virtual and the real is the right way to use the army!"
Ye Hongyan finally summed it up in one sentence.
"Uncle Gao said. Jianfeng has benefited a lot!" Ye Jianfeng said sincerely.
"Haha...... For the uncle verbally said. It's still my experience, when will you be able to listen to it, eat it thoroughly, and become your own thing, then my uncle should be very relieved!"
There are thousands of truths in the world, but they can't escape a threshold of "never knowing this matter to do", even if they know the truth, they don't have the heart to practice. If you practice the truth, then you can count it as knowing the Great Dao of the Universe. It's also useless.
"Uncle is like a god with soldiers, this Yuzhang will definitely be a drum! Jian Feng is here to congratulate his uncle first, and he has made a great contribution!"
Ye Jianfeng seemed to congratulate him.
"Jianfeng, do you really think so?" Ye Hongyan slowed down his horse and waited for Ye Jianfeng for a while, only a horse's head faster than him, which was equivalent to riding side-by-side, which was more convenient to speak.
"Anding, Yunshan two counties, heard that the uncle's army is coming, they are all offering the seal and ribbon household registration documents, surrendered without a fight, the army not only did not lose a single soldier, but nearly a thousand more people, and, opened the way to Yuzhangfu City, although Ruan Xiaoxu has some fame, there are 3,000 soldiers under his command, but in the end it is a civil official, how can he know how to govern the army and fight? Uncle is going, he will be able to take Yuzhangfu City, seize Wuzhou for the Lord, and make contributions!"
Ye Jianfeng said without thinking, this was also his inner thoughts.
Ye Hongyan led tens of thousands of troops to press the border, and he has the name of King Qin, although people in the world don't know how many agree, but he has a reputation, not a bandit army.
Sometimes, whether there is such a set of things is still very important, and it is directly the difference between a righteous teacher and a bandit army!
The county orders of Anding and Yunshan counties only have hundreds of county soldiers in their hands, and once they resist and are broken again, they will naturally be robbed of their homes and exterminated.
Song Yu's reputation in this area also spread.
Outsiders all know that Wu Hou will be rewarded for his merits, and he will be punished for his mistakes, surrender as soon as possible, at least he can protect his family, and there is no shortage of glory and wealth, once he resists, he will bring disaster to the nine clans!
The spread of this reputation, as well as Song Yu's own secretly fueling the flames, was to disintegrate the future enemy's resistance.
Now the results have really been obtained! The county orders of these two counties were forced to surrender in Kaecheng!
In this way, Ye Hongyan's army, instead of being damaged, has more than 1,000 county soldiers, as well as the county treasury of the two counties.
This is also a great boost to the morale of the army!
Ye Jianfeng saw it in his eyes, and he didn't have the slightest doubt about his uncle's big victory!
"Jianfeng! You have a point, but your vision is only limited to Yuzhang's mansion!" Ye Hongyan glanced at the nephew and still said.
"The lord once taught me that as a general, we must have a view of the overall situation, and we can't be limited to the gains and losses of one city and one place!"
"Today, Uncle will also give you this sentence!"
Ye Jianfeng was a little confused in his heart, but he was a little sober, and couldn't help but say: "Nephew is stupid!
"Do you know how many people are under my command Wu Hou?" Ye Hongyan asked slowly.
"Under the command of Marquis Wu, there are 30,000 troops, plus 6,000 Shanyue, there are 36,000 troops in total!
The people around here are all officers, and they all understand the establishment under Song Yu's command, and there is no need to hide it, so Ye Jianfeng will tell the truth.
Speaking of this, there was a flash of inspiration in my heart, and I had some understanding.
"That's right! The lord has only more than 30,000 people in Wunan's army! Any more will cost the people's strength and affect the cultivation and harvest!"
"30,000 people, not too much, no less, the entire Wuzhou, except for Wu Nan, the rest, is almost this number! Our army wants to unify Wuzhou with 30,000 people, although it has taken the lead, but it cannot be careless!"
Ye Hongyan looked extremely cautious, and said in a low voice.
"The lord only has 30,000 people, but he gives me 10,000, what a great trust this is! If I can't take the Yuzhang along the way, then won't I have the face to see the lord again?"
Ye Jianfeng nodded slowly.
"Yuzhang City is the seat of the government, the city is high and deep, and there are 3,000 soldiers, the food is sufficient, if you attack hard, you can also take it, but how much time and soldiers are consumed?"
Speaking of this, Ye Hongyan asked: "Jianfeng, you say, if our army attacks Yuzhang, how long will it take, and how many people will be damaged?"
Ye Jianfeng had a cold sweat on his forehead, and he groaned for a while before he said: "If it is a strong attack, and there is no internal response, then if you want to take it, the army will be damaged by at least thirty percent, and it will take more than a month!"
"That's the bare minimum! But if you think about it, there are more than ten prefectures in the north of Wuzhou, and if each of them takes more than a month and causes thousands of damages, then our army will lose all the money before Wuzhou is defeated......
"What's more, the lord has done his best to seize this initiative, and does not let the state pastor react, if the opportunity is delayed and the state pastor is given the opportunity to integrate, then the situation in Wuzhou will change greatly, and it will be even more troublesome......
Ye Jianfeng suddenly realized.
At this time, the strength is superior, and it is simple to take Yuzhangfu City, and no one is afraid. However, it is difficult to preserve strength without being time-consuming.
This world is still the era of cold weapons, and every time there is a big war, it is close hand-to-hand combat, at most there are bows and crossbows.
But in the siege war, it still has little effect, how can it be possible to capture a big city without killing some people?
Ye Jianfeng finally understood the reason why his uncle was always frowning recently.
guessed: "Uncle has been letting the army move slowly, doesn't it mean to surrender?"
If you want to take a short time and save the vitality of the army, unless Ruan Xiaoxu opens the city and surrenders by himself, or dedicates the city in an ambush in the city of Yuzhangfu.
"Yes, the army is pressing, it will only make the city of Yuzhangfu one mind, this leaves room for more, will think more, find some way out, people's hearts have been like this since ancient times, this is our opportunity, I have sent a secret to contact, there will be news in the near future......"
"But you can't blindly rely on this, at the critical moment, even if there is a loss, you have to fight hard!"
Ye Hongyan said, and there was a bad anger on his resolute face.
"Compared to the loss of the army, it is still important to have time! Is it really because Ruan Xiaoxu hesitated, so he didn't fight? I gave time, let the internal response move, and at the same time, let the rear step up the production of siege equipment, if Ruan Xiaoxu was still at both ends by then, it would only make Yu Zhang see blood......
Although Ye Hongyan only said a few words, Ye Jianfeng heard a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and the smell of rushing to his face.
I know that if the damage is too huge, even if the lord does not give the order, my uncle will also slaughter the city to boost morale, and then it will inevitably be ruined!
......
On February 10, the army went to the city of Yuzhangfu.
Ruan Xiaoxu landed on the top of the city, looked at the army of Wu Hou below, and saw that the army array was continuous, with more than 10,000 people, all wearing red military uniforms, which looked like a red wave, and like a burning red flame, exuding a moving force!
The guards on the city of Yuzhangfu were forced by this majestic military spirit, and their hands and feet trembled, and they could hardly hold the ordnance in their hands.
These government soldiers have been pampered for a long time, although they have some training and their physique is still there, but they have not gone through the battlefield to fight, how can they compete with the wolf-like army of Wu Hou?
Ruan Xiaoxu couldn't help but feel a little hazy in his heart.
At this time, in the army of Marquis Wu, several healthy horses flew out and came to the city of Yuzhangfu.
"Listen, people in the city! My lord Wu Hou, in response to the mandate of heaven, is ordered to be the king of Qin...... The general is merciful and gives special consideration for one day...... If you resist, you will be killed, and it will be too late to regret it...... Don't be unpredictable!"
There was an officer with a loud voice, shouting loudly.
The officer's voice was like a bell, and it was heard for miles. This is a specially cultivated scolding hand in the army, and the two armies call the formation, or persuade them to surrender in battle, and use them more.
At this time, on the city wall, after listening to the words of the officer, there was a commotion.
Song Yu's name, like thunder, since the incident, there has been no defeat, in Wuzhou, is already a ghost-like figure.
Ordinary soldiers, seeing that there are more than 10,000 troops under the city, and there are only 3,000 on their side, the strength and weakness are immediately apparent, and they are a little worried in their hearts. (To be continued......)
