Chapter 588
"Turning passive into activeness is a good idea. Do you have a specific plan?" Li De continued to ask.
"After this period of time, we have drawn all the roads that can lead to Ningzhou onto the map. Currently, there is a must-pass road for the Tiel Cavalry to be twenty miles away. If we can lead people to ambush here, we will definitely block the enemy here." Li Jing said.
Li De looked at the map, He Bida and others were also watching. They thought Li Jing's method was feasible, so that they would not have to divide their troops and would concentrate their superior forces to fight the enemy head-on.
"Okay, just follow Li Jing's method. This time, Li Jing will be responsible. How many soldiers do you need?" Li De asked.
Li De was a little excited. He was finally able to lead his troops to fight alone. This was what he had been looking forward to for a long time and thought he would have to wait for three or five years, but now it has been realized so quickly.
"Grandmaster, the enemy has 50,000 cavalry. Consider it safely. I need 100,000 soldiers and horses." Li Jing said.
He had 100,000 soldiers and horses at the beginning. You should know that even if the generals of the Sui Kingdom could command so many soldiers, they would have to be the sequence of top military generals in the court.
Li De did not hesitate. He knew that Li Jing was an amazing person, and even if there was no actual combat, it would not affect his victory with his soldiers.
"Okay, I'll send you 100,000 troops to be responsible for you." Li Dedao.
"The last general will definitely live up to the expectations of the Grand Commander." Li Jing said.
"He Bida, Shi Huaiyi, Luo Song, you have a heavy task. Ningzhou's development must not be left behind because of the war."
After Li De assigned the mission, the lieutenants were a little confused. They wanted to participate in the battle, but in the end they were assigned to the construction of urban planning.
It's a bit similar to He Bida's situation at the time.
After the people dispersed, He Bida stayed. He really had many things that he couldn't understand, such as why people like Shi Huaiyi, Luo Song and others were better at leading troops to fight, and why the tasks assigned to them were managed now.
Shouldn't they go to fight? If he couldn't figure it out, he would just choose to ask.
"Grandmaster, Li Jing has no experience in leading troops independently, so it seems inappropriate to hand over 100,000 troops to him." He Bida said.
Li De knew very well what he was worried about. Everyone could see that Li Jing's wisdom and the means of leading troops were able to see that this person understood the art of war. After several battles, it could be seen that this person was capable.
"Are you worried about my arrangements?" Li De said lightly.
It is all fake to say that you are not worried. He Bida is really worried about handing over 100,000 vanguard soldiers to Li Jing.
"Grandmaster, it's no problem to lead troops to fight the lieutenants, why did they arrange for them to supervise the worker?" He Bida asked.
Li De smiled faintly and explained: "Li Jing is good at fighting enemy soldiers. He gave him the opportunity to bring the soldiers back as safely as possible, so that Shi Huaiyi and others have many purposes for supervising construction, such as letting him polish his temper and learn the development of the prefecture earlier."
He Bida immediately understood, just like he did back then.
"Grandmaster, we all have facial features. It's okay to lead troops to fight, but it's really hard to say as managers." He Bida said.
"It doesn't matter, the ability can be cultivated slowly, so you have to worry more about the development and construction of Ningzhou." Li Dedao.
He Bida already understood what Li De meant, so he didn't say more. He wanted to see what Shi Huaiyi and the others would do, and whether it would be as embarrassing as he was when he started taking over civil affairs.
When He Bida left and left, he was stopped by Shi Huaiyi, Luo Song and others. They were all waiting for the result and did not allow them to lead their troops to fight. They really couldn't figure it out.
Although I know that development and construction are also important, I always have some thoughts in my mind.
"You guys are really unbearable. The Grand Governor's meaning is very clear, that is, you must cultivate your ability to govern the prefectures. You will know how to lead troops to fight every day and how to manage them in the future." He Bida said.
In their minds, military generals are going to lead troops to fight, and civil officials can do other things, but in Li De's opinion, the same is true, but this does not affect the military generals' training of management abilities.
Things in the barracks cannot exercise their abilities, and now Ningzhou construction cannot lack people.
Besides, 100,000 troops were sent out, and Ningzhou cannot be without defense. Shi Huaiyi and others' personal guards are the strongest combat power, and they are also for insurance.
But Li De didn't understand these things very clearly.
Li Jing will have to arrange it sooner or later, and Li De will have this opportunity to see how many surprises this invincible general can bring to him.
This time, the Pei brothers, Xiong Kuohai and others were sent out to serve as Li Jing's deputy. Li De could feel much more at ease.
As for how to fight, it depends on Li Jing.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers brought enough food and set off quickly.
The Tiel Cavalry met the vanguard on time based on the news from the scout. The Tiel Cavalry was still in command of Yi Mu. After the last defeat, he had been studying the tactics of the vanguard.
For example, the one who impressed the most was the shield wall. This kind of equipment has a very big advantage for temporary encounters and is more practical than horse-rejected piles, but the cost of building is too high for them to build.
Meeting on a narrow road made Yi Mu see the shield wall again. The Tieler cavalry now has no good impression of this shield wall and there is no way to take a detour.
If you want to retreat, if you really do that, the vanguard will charge without hesitation.
Yi Mu found out that every time he encountered a vanguard, he had no choice.
"Beat the drum!" Li Jing and his men had arrived and prepared very in time, and the sound of war drums was constantly inspiring.
"The brave will win and attack!"
After Li Jing shouted, the shield wall was about to be opened, and he immediately changed from a defensive formation to a tiger and wolf army.
Yi Mu really had no choice. Seeing that the enemy had already launched a charge, he had to face the battle first without preparation.
"General, there are too many enemies, so let's avoid their edge first and retreat first." Yida, who came with the Tiel cavalry, persuaded.
When we meet on a narrow road, we either advance or retreat now.
Li Jing even said this, so he did not specify any tactics at the beginning. If there is one word "courage", the attack began and the sound of drum beaters did not stop.
Li Jing personally led the people to charge, that's right, it's a brave man.
Pei Yuanqing, Xiong Kuohai likes to fight like this the most, and everyone is full of energy. Xiong Kuohai is fighting and shouting heroically: "That's the case for Tieler Cavalry. Brothers rushed over and seized the enemy's heads."
As soon as the words were spoken, the soldiers were all excited. They were able to get the general's head and were able to upgrade to three levels in a row when they performed well. Many people followed suit and moved forward bravely when they heard it.
Yi Mu saw the enemy's momentum, and they were already very tired after rushing for so long, which made them even more in equipment.
"General, retreat, it's still time." The generals around Yi Mu persuaded.
