Chapter 171 Attack Xinghua or Salt Farm first?
"The enemy is the enemy. On the battlefield, even the closest friend, if he goes to the other party's camp, it will be your enemy. Treat the enemy as ruthless as winter. In the test of life and death on the battlefield, either the other party falls or you fall. We should firmly destroy each other. You can't be kind and soft. Women's benevolence can't survive in troubled times. Zhang Yang said.
"Yes, the eldest brother taught me a lesson." Bian Yuanheng said.
"But in the battle, although we aim to destroy each other, if we can defeat each other and transform into our own strength, it is more powerful for us. Fighting is killing, but killing should stop at killing. It's just blindly killing. After the war, who will carry out production? If there is not enough manpower, how can the country develop? Zhang Yang's words were aimed at those corpses on the river. The enemy who fell into the water has already lost its combat effectiveness. It's much better to force them to surrender than to become cold corpses floating on the river. If you kill too many people, you will be punished by God.
Zhang Yang doesn't want his general to become a killer like Bai Qi.
"Next, please talk to everyone about the next deployment." Zhang Yang said.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at Li Shanchang beside Zhang Yang. I didn't see anyone in the war just now. After the war, I had to listen to his command.
Li Shanchang stood up from behind Zhang Yang and said, "We repelled the attack of the tars. The next step is to go east and seize the Baiju salt farm. Then the soldiers divided into two ways to take down the salt field in the north-south direction. Control the major salt farms in the east and west of Gaoyou Mansion.
Everyone was stunned and attacked the salt field? What kind of bad idea is this? It's better to go west and take down Xinghua City. Xinghua City is a good city. There are strong walls for cover. The first task now is to occupy the head of the land.
"Why don't you play Xinghua City? What do you do in the salt farm?" Shi Yi asked.
"Yes, that's right. There are so many landlords in Xinghua City, and we are eating big food. Tang He said.
Li Shanchang explained: "We only have a team of more than 200 people to attack Xinghua City now, which is impossible. We are playing defense today, and going to Xinghua City is to attack. With our little people, can we be beaten down?
Everyone thinks about it, and it's true. The wall of Xinghua City is much higher than that of Furong Village. And there must be hundreds of soldiers defending in a county. If you really attack, it's definitely a bad bone.
"Then what's the advantage of going to attack the salt field?" Shi Xin asked. He came back from Xinghua City in time, rushed to Zhang Yang's side, and also killed several Tartars.
"Do you need to say that?" Li Shanchang's eyes were shining, "What do you need to fight a war? Need someone! Need money! Although the eldest brother has a secret way to make money, the speed of making money is still too slow. If you want to dominate the world, the silver you need will be an astronomical figure. After the salt field was hit, we got a treasure pot. If you want money, this sea salt is the fastest.
"Yes, that's it!" Shi Xin patted his thigh. I usually work hard to sell salt. The profit is far less than a fraction of the profit of the salt farm. The sea water is there. As long as it is dried, it is sea salt. If it hadn't been monopolized by the government, how could the price of salt be so high?
"We beat Xinghua City. Isn't it better to eat a big family?" Tang He still can't forget it. At the beginning, in the Red Turban Army, it was the home of large families. That silver is too much to count.
"Large eaters can only last for a while. Take down Xinghua City and eat big households. No matter how much money you have, there will be a time to run out. On the other hand, as long as the salt farm is beaten down, it will be a cash cow that will never be used up. Li Shanchang explained. Of course, after we control the salt farm, we won't let go of the big families nearby.
Everyone nodded one after another, "That's right, it makes sense."
"Moreover, there is another advantage to the salt field. The eldest brother and all the brothers have a deep relationship with the salt people in the salt farm. Li Shanchang said.
"At that time, as long as the eldest brother shakes his arms, I dare to say that the brothers in the salt field will join our team and become one of us. And our team will expand rapidly. At that time, it will be easy to go back to the head and clean up Xinghua City.
"Yes, that's for sure. We are originally from salt people. I get very good friends with those brothers who dry salt. They can't wait to join us. Shi Yi also said. The eldest brother's original team, the current guard, is all composed of brothers from the salt field.
"Big brother is very popular in the salt field. It's not a problem to recruit hundreds of people in our white pupe field.
"Yes, that's right. That's all. It's so boring. Looking at other teams, there are not thousands of people in that team?"
"Yes, it's okay for the Mongolian tars who guard the salt field to bully the honest salt people, and we will solve him in a few times."
" OK, now let's make a combat deployment." Li Shanchang began to get to the point. The question of who to hit has been determined, and the next question is how to hit.
"Wait a minute!" Lv Zhen suddenly remembered a very important question: the tar cavalry had just been beaten away by us. If they make a comeback, we will all go to the salt farm. Who will guard here?
Zhang Yang looked at Lv Zhen with satisfaction. He was not arrogant and did not lose. At this time, I can still think of this problem. Lv Zhen does have the demeanor of a general.
Li Shanchang took a look at Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang nodded and motioned him to continue. Because just before they came in, they had interrogated the prisoners.
"You don't have to worry about this. The tars are powerless to attack us in the near future." Li Shanchang said.
"How do you know?"
"Thanks to those prisoners. My eldest brother and I have asked the prisoners. This time, the general of the Yuan Dynasty stationed in Gaoyou, Nasu Lading. There are 2,000 people in total. Their main task is to protect Gaoyou. It is already their limit to dispatch 500 cavalry to attack us. Before the transferred garrison returned to Gaoyou, they had no strength to attack us. Moreover, I guess that Li Qi, the magistrate of Gaoyou, will not agree that he will bring all the people out to deal with us. In that way, Gaoyou Mansion will become an empty city, and it is estimated that Li Qi will not sleep soundly. Moreover, after attacking the salt field, even if Li Qi makes some action, will he continue to attack our killing port? Or hurry up and try to take back the salt field?"
Everyone nodded. Indeed, the salt farm is much more important than the port of killing.
Li Shanchang looked at Zhang Yang and then said, "Now is the time when the troops of Gaoyoufu are empty, and we take this opportunity to develop rapidly."
Everyone is happy. Take advantage of the inability of Gaoyoufu to attack again and develop and grow again.
"We are still equipped according to the current troops, and Tang He will lead your firemen and spearmen to touch the salt field from the west. Quickly kill the guards of the salt field and control the adults of the salt field. If anyone dares to resist, kill on the spot. Led by Lv Zhen, your men will defend Dingxi Field to the south of Baiju Field. This is a big salt farm. I guess there may be rescuers to support. Destroy them, and we can go south along the Chuanchang River and take the salt farm. And Bian Yuanheng takes your people to defend the Liuzhuang field in the north.
"In this battle, we captured more than 400 horses. All the soldiers who can ride horses are given one. The soldiers were so fast that the soldiers could take good care of the sky. After two hours of rest, they set off immediately. Hurry to the Baiju salt farm before dark. Zhang Yang said.
So fast? Everyone was a little surprised. But they don't have any complaints. At present, they are full of energy and want to kill more enemies.
"Yes, big brother." Everyone agreed with one voice and walked out of the hall.
"Shixin, you stay." Zhang Yang stopped him, "I tell you to do something urgent."
"What's the matter?"
"I will go to the base and inform Li Bosheng to ship the Tianque, grenades and spears that have been built in the past few days to the Baiju Salt Farm."
"Why is it me again? Can't you let someone else go?" Shixin is still thinking about killing the enemy to make contributions.
"Of course it's you. Of course, I have to do such an important thing with the people I trust the most. Zhang Yang brought a high hat to his fourth brother.
Shi Xin's face was really happy, "Okay. I'll go right away."
