Volume 1 Chapter 90 Foundation
After pondering for a long time, Jiang Feng didn't make up his mind.
He originally intended to wait for the third day before taking out the killer weapon, but now it seems that there is a high possibility that the ant thief will fight to the death on the second day, and the Gushi Army may not be able to hold on until the third day. He still overestimated the Gushi Army's fighting will.
If the ant thief is going to fight to the death tomorrow, his previous preparation is the trump card prepared for the third day, and he may even have problems if he is useless. Perhaps this mistake will lead to a big disaster, so he needs to make other preparations.
Thinking of this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but think, if he used the killer weapon in advance, would the ant thief surrender? Can one blow give the opponent a fatal blow in combat will?
More than 20,000 ant thieves fought bloody battles for two days. Even if they rely on various facilities to provide major damage to the other party, thousands of casualties will be difficult to hurt the root cause.
Jiang Feng knew very well that if the other party insisted on taking Gushi, Gushi would not be able to defend it. In a sense, it would be beneficial to launch a killer weapon in advance to attack the opponent's will to combat.
At least he can show his power to avoid the other party being too hurt and being too embarrassed and angry, so that he will fight to the death at all costs to save face.
Thinking of this, Jiang Feng had already made up his mind.
Huang Anjin has been paying attention to the young Master Yu.
As a less popular character in the Gwangju Ya Army, Huang Anjin is very aware of his strengths and weaknesses.
His irritable personality when he was young had a great impact on him. Now he is in his thirties and does not have much chance to make somersaults again. No matter how sharp the edges and corners are, they will be polished to a much smoother and more rounded after experiencing setbacks.
If the ant thief conquers Gushi in this battle, it is natural to say, but if Gushi defends it, Huang Anjin has a premonition, and I am afraid that the position of Lord Yu Hou in front of him will be stable in Gushi City.
From the endless means and foresight shown by this Master Yu Hou, Huang Anjin felt that Gushi was just the first step for Jiang Feng to take the steps.
He knew Jiang Feng's intention to attract him, and he also understood that it was not a test for Jiang Feng to let him take charge of the Gushi Army's front battalion, and he tested his ability to integrate troops and train troops.
Because of this, Huang Anjin spent more energy after taking charge of the front camp than anyone else, and the deserters in the front camp who could not bear this hardship were far better than the other camps, even more than Jiang Feng's left camp.
He needs to seize this opportunity. This is an opportunity to turn into a dragon when he encounters wind and clouds. Yun Conglong and Feng Conghu. Perhaps some people are born with dragons and tigers. Then Huang Anjin also wants to be Yun and Feng who follow the dragons and tigers.
"An Jin, how is the situation in the front camp?"
"It's okay, the preliminary preparations are still very effective. The brothers are mentally prepared. Of course, they fought very badly, but I thought that after experiencing this battle, the remaining brothers in the front battalion could be called real soldiers."
Huang Anjin is still very confident about the brothers under his command. He is trained by himself with one hand and one's own skills. He knows it.
"It seems that you are very confident about your soldiers. I heard that you are using the method of practicing monk soldiers in White Horse Temple to train soldiers?" Jiang Feng laughed.
The White Horse Kinduoyun Temple in Guangzhou has a deep relationship with the White Horse Temple in Luoyang. Huang Anjin became a monk at Duoyun Temple since he was young. He was not until he was in his twenties when his mother was sick and returned to the secular service of his mother. After his mother died of illness, he joined the Gwangzhou Yajun. Therefore, he was very familiar with the training methods of monks in the White Horse Temple. When he used it in front of the camp, it really made it difficult for many soldiers to adapt.
"Mr. Yuhou, there were old troops in the front camp, and the old troops also divided the old troops in Guangzhou and Gushi. There were new soldiers, which were mixed and difficult to unify. The subordinates could only treat them equally, only look at the training results, and if they were competent, they would be eliminated. If they were not competent, they would have to practice to be competent before they could pass. There would inevitably be offensive in the meantime. I hope the Lord would understand."
Huang Anjin's words were a bit unlucky and arrogant, which made Jiang Feng quite satisfied.
"The methods of practicing in each battalion are different, and that is the right of command of each battalion. I don't ask, I only look at the results."
Jiang Feng also knew that everyone had their own training methods these days, and he could not force consensus. His standard was to only look at combat effectiveness and discipline.
Huang Anjin's practice method is too harsh, and many old soldiers are difficult to adapt to, and many people can't stand it. However, judging from today's performance, the adaptability shown by the front camp is the fastest, even better than Gu Minghai's central camp and his own left camp.
"Then thank you for your understanding." Huang Anjin bowed his fists and bowed. He also knew that many old soldiers ran to Jiang Feng to complain, especially some of Jiang Feng's simple knowledge. However, he believed that Jiang Feng would not be influenced by these at this critical moment, unless Jiang Feng was really not a big deal.
"An Jin, you don't need to be like this between you and me. You should know my attitude." Jiang Feng stroked the hilt of the knife with both hands and pondered for a moment, "I'm afraid you've seen it too. Our Gushi Army looks quite arrogant now, but judging from today's combat effectiveness, it's very worrying. And as you said, we may have more weaknesses in the battle tomorrow. I'm very worried that the ant thief will show more things beyond our expectations tomorrow."
Huang Anjin hesitated for a moment, as if he was considering something, and Jiang Feng also looked at the other party, waiting for something.
"Sir, I think the number of our soldiers is enough for the Gushi Army. The key lies in the improvement of combat effectiveness. The main reason is that our military leader's strength is obviously weak, and our foundation in this regard is too weak." Huang Anjin finally said it.
The word "Military Head" has a specific meaning in this era, and it also has a broad and narrow meaning. It refers to the high-level warlords of various places and the inspection of the commander, while the broad meaning refers to the forces of officers at all levels in charge of the army, from Dutou to command to Yuhou and higher levels.
The military head that Huang Anjin refers to of course refers to the broad meaning.
In other words, the officers of the Gushi Army were not strong enough. From the army to the head of the capital to the commander, compared with the Liang army that traverses the Central Plains, the Jin army that traverses the Jin area and the outside of the Great Wall, the three major HB army that were known as the three heroes of Heshuo, the Taining army that lies in the four places of Yan, Yun and Yimi, the Pinglu army that occupies Qingzi, and the Influence Army that dominates Huaibei. These backbone army leaders who were once glorious in the Central Plains were all skilled in martial arts, and the strength of the officers of the Gushi Army was not on the same level as those of these towns.
It can be said that the promotion of officers in these towns is basically closely related to their own martial arts skills, especially those of the commander-in-chief, who stand out from countless tragic wars and have some level of martial arts. Even if they cannot reach the level of reaching the Heavenly Realm, they are not far apart.
