Chapter 99 The Land of Final Battle
"Good! Then please, sir. I might as well be more generous this time. If Zhang Xianzhong cooperates with our action, I can give him a batch of weapons as a thank you. In short, I won't let him suffer. If he has something to ask me one day, I will definitely give it in return!" Xiao Tianjian immediately settled on this matter.
"I'm obediently! I will study the book immediately after I go down. After the commander-in-chief uses the seal, he will send someone to Zhang Xianzhong's office! In addition, I would also like to ask the general about Chen Yongfu from Kaifeng to deal with the Guanning army of his ancestors this time. I don't know what the general plans to do? Niu Jinxing then asked Xiao Tianjian.
"What can you plan to do? Since they dare to come, I dare to go. This time, I personally led six military battalions to directly send troops to Ruzhou, and fought against him outside Ruzhou City. I don't believe that I can't defeat him again!" Xiao Tianjian stood up boldly and said loudly.
After hearing this, Niu Jinxing shook his head and said, "No! This is a must!"
Xiao Tianjian frowned and asked Niu Jinxing, "Why did you say this? Don't you believe our children's ability?"
Niu Jinxing shook his head and said, "No! I'm afraid the commander-in-chief is a misunderstanding! Many of these Japanese humble positions have been moved around in the army, and the skills of the soldiers in the army have also been seen. The generals brought out by the general are all elite soldiers, and the humble positions will never despise them!"
"Then why is it so unusable?" Xiao Tianjian asked Niu Jinxing puzzledly.
Niu Jinxing got up and walked to the front of a huge sand table in the center of the tent. Niu Jinxing had long been full of praise for this sand table used by Xing Tianjun. Moreover, this sand table was carefully made by a master invited by Xiao Tianjian according to the map, which shows the terrain and surroundings of Xing Tianjun's jurisdiction in western Henan. The terrain of the state and county is very exquisite, and the mountains and rivers can be seen at a glance, which is very convenient for them to march and fight for decoration.
There are a lot of small flags on this sand table, including red and blue. The red represents the subordinates of the Xingtian Army, and the blue represents the subordinates of the officers and soldiers. In addition, there are also some small flags of other colors, each representing different forces, which can basically intuitively show the present West Henan and even Henan. The situation of power in the middle area.
Niu Jinxing stood next to the sand table, picked up a wooden stick from the side, pointed to the position of Ruzhou on the sand table and said to Xiao Tianjian, "Mshal, please see, the terrain here in Ruzhou is flat. If the general leads his troops to the city of Ruzhou to seek a decisive battle with Zu Da Le, Zu Kuan, Chen Yongfu and other officers and soldiers, although our sergeants are full. Ma Teng, but after all, our army is basically a foot soldier, especially our army's tactics consume a lot of materials. During the period of Ruyang to Ruzhou, 50 miles are flat, and most of the Guanning army is a cavalry army, and its combat power is quite strong. The action in this area is very fast!
Once the marshal leads his division out of Ruyang County, there will be no shelter along the way. The barracks need a lot of soldiers and horses to cover. Even if he comes out of our cavalry, he can only escort the carriages and horses of the barracks to act with the army. In this way, he loses the initiative of this battle. Once the soldiers reach Ruzhou, they will have the initiative to fight and not to fight. They all fell into the hands of the enemy. As long as the officers and soldiers avoid the sharp edge of the marshal, they can drag the marshal under the city of Ruzhou. They can divide their troops to attack and disturb the back road of our army. Once the weight of transporting grain on the back road is lost, then the marshal will undoubtedly lose this battle. At that time, the officers and army can take the opportunity of the general to withdraw their troops and take advantage of the opportunity to chase and kill. First of all, I'm afraid the chance of winning this battle is less than 30%!
So I think it is unwise to send troops to fight! That's why I advised the general not to act recklessly!"
Xiao Tianjian lowered his head and looked carefully on the sand table and thought about what Niu Jinxing said. He felt that what he said was indeed reasonable. Now because he has led the army to deal with the officers and soldiers in a row for several years, even many generals of the Xing Tianjun, including him, are a little blind to the officers and soldiers, and the heart of underestimates is naturally nourished. It was born.
Although Guan Ning's army is not as powerful as the legend, Zu Kuanzu Da Le, the two generals of the ancestors, are still quite level. The generals of Guan Ning's army are also much better trained than the officers and soldiers in the mainland. When they go into battle, they are also more brave than the officers and soldiers in the mainland. Liuquan Town came down in a battle, although he led his troops to defeat Zu. The wide department, but the price paid is still quite not small, which shows that the Guanning Army is still quite effective.
If the officer and army really adopt the method mentioned by Niu Jinxing to deal with him this time, first avoid the decisive battle with him, and then separate a large group of cavalry to harass him, this battle is really not good.
So Xiao Tianjian looked up and asked Niu Jinxing, "So, according to what you can see, where will the officers and soldiers use troops first this time?"
Niu Jinxing casually pointed and said, "If it's a humble position, I will definitely choose Yichuan first to attack us this time!"
Xiao Tianjian looked along the wooden stick in Niu Jinxing's hand, so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, if it were me, I wouldn't have hit Ruyang County first!" So from the gentleman's point of view, where should we fight against the officers and soldiers in this battle?
"It's right here..." Niu Jinxing made a heavy point on the sand table with a wooden stick.
"Liu Yao took the order!" After Xiao Tianjian sat on the Shuai case, the two sides of the sand table were full of generals above the deputy battalion of the Xing Tianjun. They all raised their chins and waited for Xiao Tianjian's order. Xiao Tianjian picked up an arrow, drew a picture with a red pen, and shouted.
Liu Yaoben immediately stood out of the queue and answered loudly, "The last general!"
"I order you to order a battalion under your command today, and immediately set out to rush to Lushi County to sit in the official road mouth military fortress in the north of the county. The township barracks and new battalions in Lushi County are all to you to be dispatched to guard the official Daokou for me. You are not allowed to let the officers and Shaanxi soldiers in the direction of Tongguan enter Lushi County, as long as Lushi County has Lost, then you don't have to see me again! I cut off my head, but someone sent it to me! But remember, don't just remember the north of Lushi County, but also be careful about the road from the west of the county to Luonan. Strengthen the investigation in the north of the county to prevent being attacked by officers and soldiers from this area!" Xiao Tianjian ordered loudly.
Liu Yao was stunned for a moment. The boss in his heart was not happy. Seeing that there was another big battle, the first thing Xiao Tianjian thought of was to drive him to Lushi County, which was too... But he did not dare to express his dissatisfaction. He turned his mind and immediately understood Xiao Tianjian's arrangement. Since Xiao Tianjian sent him to sit in Lushi County. He also asked him to sit at the official's entrance in person, so it is likely that he has received the news that the officers and soldiers will attack Lushi County. In this way, there is still a battle to fight. Maybe there is still a big battle to fight, so he immediately changed his mind and took the order loudly. He took the arrow from Xiao Tianjian's hand and returned to the column.
"Zhao Er donkey listens to the order!"
"The end will be!" Zhao Erli immediately strode out of the queue. Now his Zhao Erli is no longer a deputy battalion general. This time, Xiao Tianjian expanded the war barracks, and Zhao Erli finally became the main battalion general of the first battalion as he wished. He could be on an equal footing with Luo Li and Li Shuanzhu, and his battalion was awarded the Sixth Battalion of the Xing Tian Army. The number obviously exceeded the other three newly formed battalions, and Zhao Er Lv was finally satisfied with this. He worked very hard during this period. As soon as he heard Xiao Tianjian's name, he immediately responded loudly.
"I order you to lead the generals of the sixth battalion to sit in Ruyang County and focus on the Wuwan Mountain Pass in the east of the county. Once the officers and soldiers attack, block them here as much as possible and repel them for me. If the officers and soldiers are too fierce, you are allowed to withdraw into the county, but remember that before withdrawing into the city, We need to evacuate the people around the county first! You can't let the officers and soldiers harm them at will! Do you understand?
What's more, after I lead the division to leave here, the camp should not be removed, but should be planted more flags, and constantly mobilized, creating an illusion for the detailed work in the surrounding area, that is, our main force is still here and has not left! This matter is very important. Whether you can win this battle or not, it is very important how the suspects here are doing!" Xiao Tianjian took an arrow and ordered Zhao Erlu.
Zhao Er donkey immediately nodded and said, "The last general understands it. Please rest assured that as long as I'm still alive in Ruyang County, the officers and soldiers can't take it away!"
When Zhao Er's donkey took the order to retreat, Xiao Tianjian continued to order: "Liu Bao obeys the order"
Liu Bao came out and said, "The last general!"
"After I order you to take the order, I will immediately lead the four battalions under your command to Yongning County as soon as possible. The new battalion and the township soldiers in Yongning County are all transferred by you. I will keep an eye on Wang Shaoyu's troops in the direction of Yiyang. Once they change, I will send them back to Yiyang without mercy! In addition, be careful of the officers and soldiers in the direction of Shaanxi Prefecture. Don't let the officers and soldiers in the direction of Shaanxi have the opportunity to take advantage of it. Yongning County is not easy to defend, so I will give it to you. Whether you can keep Yongning County or not depends on your ability!" Xiao Tianjian told Liu Bao that Liu Bao had a relatively calm temperament. In this regard, he had an advantage over Luo Li, so Xiao Tianjian chose him to go back to Yongning County.
Liu Bao listened to Xiao Tianjian's instructions and immediately nodded and said, "General, please rest assured!" Although he didn't say much, his tone was very firm.
"Where is Situ Liang?"
"The end will be!"
"I order you to lead the cavalry under your command, start to act immediately, go to the area of Ruzhou, and cooperate with the battalions to keep an eye on the whereabouts of the officers and soldiers in Ruzhou. You can attack and harass them, but you can't fight head-on, let alone love. Once you find that they have signs of sending troops to Yichuan, they will immediately return to me! In addition, slow them down as much as possible! Do you understand?" Xiao Tianjian pulled out an arrow and ordered Situ Liang.
After listening to Situ Liang, he stepped forward and returned the order to the list without saying a word.
"Good! The rest of the battalions are working with me! Go down and get ready!"
The generals took the order loudly, and then stepped out of the big account one after another to salute Xiao Tianjian.
