Chapter 410: Mistakes
Tienig suddenly withdrew from the opportunity to gain the upper hand, which made Li Fugui puzzled and breathed a long sigh, but he still did not dare to relax his vigilance at all. Now he and his soldiers are all overly tightly. Once they loosen, they are likely to collapse mentally and physically. If Tieniger makes a comeback, he will not cry.
While sending a sentry to follow Tinig's gang to track it, he ordered the soldiers to make all preparations. Before the sentry brought back the exact information, he did not dare to order the soldiers to relax. It was easy to be tight when loose.
Meng Yao once told them a classic case, which was also the masterpiece of Guan Pengju, the former military god of Dayue. During a war with the Mongols, the Mongols attacked for a long distance, and the Great Vietnamese army was waiting for their hard work. However, after the Mongolian army arrived, Guan Pengju did not order the attack while the opponent had just arrived, but waited patiently for the opponent to reorganize the army, allowing the opponent to rest for half an hour before ordering the attack. This was considered a great mistake by most generals at that time. However, when the two sides fought on the battlefield, the Great Vietnamese soldiers found that the combat power of the Mongolian army was far less terrifying than they imagined, and war horses often missed their hooves.
The soldiers and generals of the Mongolian army were also shocked to find that after resting for half an hour, their physical strength not only did not recover, but their hands and feet became weak and weak. This battle ended with Guan Pengju's great victory. It was not until after the war that Guan Pengju brought out the truth. The first arrival of the Mongolian army was at a moment of mental tension and full vigilance. If an attack was launched at this time, it would be like hitting the sharp knife. And let them rest for half an hour, whether it was a human or a horse, suddenly relaxed while nervous, and wanted to lift up the spirit and restore the physical strength. It was not a matter of a while. He fought this time.
This incident opened Li Fugui's eyes. It turned out that fighting is not just brave. The knowledge is too great. For a guy like him who is half a bucket of water, there are countless things to learn. Fortunately, he is thick-skinned and has many veterans in Yun Zhao's army, such as Meng Yao, Huo Zhenting, Park Demeng, Zhou Guangyi and others. All of them are experienced people. The character of a military general who is good at being a teacher is fully reflected. As long as Li Fugui asks for advice, he will always speak out and speak. Sometimes, these people are often blushed for how to fight a battle. They roll up their sleeves and stretch their fists, face to face and eyes. They will do one by one before talking about it. At this time, Li Fugui is stumped because the plans proposed by these guys are sometimes completely different and they can't pee in a pot at all.
There are only a few people under Yun Zhao's strong generals. Meng Yao is fierce, Zhou Guangyi is steady, Huo Zhenting is weird, Park Demeng is smart, others are like Su Dingfang and Hu Zehua are still one level worse than the above four. Yan Xiaoyi is a typical Eagle-billed combat style, coming and going like the wind, looking for fighter opportunities in the movement, and want him to fight head-on, unless there is a strategic requirement that he must do this. Wang Qiang of the Fourth Battalion and Li Fugui of the Fifth Battalion are basically still in the learning stage.
Yun Zhao attaches great importance to Wang Qiang and Li Fugui's fourth and fifth battalions, because strictly speaking, these two battalions, together with Yan Xiaoyi's cavalry, can be truly considered the troops he formed himself, and he trusts the most. Therefore, in terms of equipment and personnel, these two battalions were vigorously cultivated. This attack on Luzhou made them even more capable of taking action, so that they could experience more and grow up as soon as possible in this operation with little combat intensity.
Now it seems that Yun Zhao made a mistake. The Mengren were indeed trying their best to seize the northern states, but for Luzhou, they obviously did not mean to give up, but increased their struggle with Yun Zhao. This mistake caused Li Fugui's Pioneer Camp to suffer heavy losses. Before he arrived in Shuntian, Luzhou Prefecture City, he had already lost more than half.
It was not until the banner of Wang Qiang of the Fifth Battalion appeared in the sight of the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Battalion that Li Fugui finally relaxed completely. His tight body suddenly collapsed and he lay on the cold land with his back on all sides. ***, I finally survived.
At this time, he finally understood why Tinig ran away.
"Li Tou, Li Tou, General Yun is here too!" Meng Gao squatted beside him and shook Li Fugui hard.
"Who is here?" Li Fugui asked in a daze. He was so tired. In the past day, he rushed to the front line several times, and even cut several knives.
"General Yun is here, his flag is up!" Meng Gao pointed to the distance.
Li Fugui was so excited that he stood up and sat up. Sure enough, not far behind the Fifth Battalion, under the bright fire, the cloud-like flag fluttered in the wind.
"General Yun, the last general is ashamed of being in vain. Not only did he not fulfill the general's strategic intention, but he also suffered losses. Please punish him!" Li Fugui lowered his head and knelt in front of Yun Zhao who was stroking.
He pulled Li Fugui up and Yun Zhao shook his head, "The Fifth Battalion has tried its best. It's not your fault, but we probably have made a mistake. It's beyond my expectations that you can fight to this point. At first, I thought the Fifth Battalion would be unable to escape this time. Look, now, you still have more than 2,000 people left. It's OK. With them as the backbone, it won't take long to be a brand new fifth battalion with greater strength than the past. "
"Thank you for being magnanimous, General!" Li Fugui burst into tears of gratitude.
Looking at the messy battlefield everywhere, Yun Zhao frowned. After the Taizhou army withdrew from the north, he had already expected the difficulties he faced, but now it seems that he still underestimated his opponent, and the other party never gave up on the idea of turning his territory into a lonely land.
"Let's go, go to Yanggu County first. I have to think about what to do next!" Yun Zhao waved.
The reinforcements of the Anqing border army arrived in time and the Mongolians evacuated. Cui Zhe, the magistrate of Yanggu County, was happy to see the flying cloud-like flag appearing under the city head. He happily opened the city gate and led the officials and people in the city to welcome them out of the city.
"Cui Zhe, the magistrate of Yanggu County, led all the county's family members to welcome the general Yunhui. The general lifted the people upside down and defeated the Meng people. The protecting Yanggu was safe. The Yanggu was all grateful and regarded the general as his rebirth parent." Cui Zhe bowed to the ground, his face full of joy.
"Forget it, don't need to be too polite. Resisting the invasion of the Mongols is the duty of my Anqing border army. County Magistrate Cui, you can still defend the county town under the pressure of the Mongol army. It is really rare to open the city and surrender without some cordial bones like Luzhou. This integrity is extremely admirable. The court will never forget you, a loyal man like you, and I, Yun Zhao, will I forget that when I recover the entire Luzhou, there will inevitably be a greater burden for you to take. County Magistrate Lu, do you have confidence?" Yun Zhao rode on the horse and looked at the county magistrate in front of the horse. In terms of age, Cui Zhe was one round older than Yun Zhao and had to turn a corner, but in terms of official rank, Yun Zhao was too tall. One was the third-rank Yunhui general and the other was the seventh-rank county magistrate. I can't tell you what to do.
When Cui Zhe heard Yun Zhao's praise, he was overjoyed and felt that his bones were much lighter. He was so light that he didn't know where he was. He had heard of the great military achievements of the Anqing border army. With them entering Yanggu, at least he didn't have to worry about safety. If Luzhou could be recovered, then it would be a foregone conclusion that he would take to the next level with his current achievements.
Thinking that I had been fighting for most of my life and had only been a small county magistrate. Now that the chaos is coming and the chaos is in chaos, I actually have the possibility of promotion, and it is visible and tangible. My heart can't help but become lively. Looking at Yun Zhao, I feel particularly intimate.
"General, the last general has prepared a banquet in the city. First, we will wash the general's dust, and second, the gentry and elders in the county also want to admire the general's power. Please let the general go to the emperor with a look of his face." Cui Zhegong asked.
"No need!" Yun Zhao waved his hand, "Although the Mongolian army retreated, they did not stay away and were still lingering nearby. At this time, it is not the time to drink and have fun. When I recover Luzhou, it is not too late to drink this wine. County Magistrate Cui, there are a few things you have to do immediately. I wonder if it can be done?"
"Please tell me, the subordinates will definitely do it!"
"The first thing is to gather all the doctors in the county, and even those who travel to the rivers and lakes will be summoned. During the day, many loyal and brave men from the Anqing border army were injured. The doctors in the army were too busy, and every time they were delayed, they might be a life. So this is an urgent task. I hope that after an hour, these doctors can be seen appearing in the military camp outside the city!"
"Yes, yes!" Cui Zhe waved his hand and called a person who looked like a county lieutenant on the side, "Have you heard the general's words? Go and do it quickly. It must be done in one hour!"
Yun Zhao nodded, "Second, in order to understand the siege of Yanggu, our army came in a hurry. The military rations were not enough. I hope the county magistrate could recruit some food and grass for our army from this county. If the army had no food, the county magistrate must understand this."
"General, don't worry, there is still surplus grain in my Yanggu Grain Depot, so I will all be released into the army." Cui Zhe understood very well, "The Anqing border army saved our Yanggu City. In addition to the grain, each household also prepared some meat such as pigs, sheep, fish, chickens, ducks, etc., and would be released into the army immediately, so that the soldiers could eat enough and eat well, so that they could better fight against the people."
Yun Zhao couldn't help laughing. This county magistrate is good. Wen Yizhishi actually did a lot of work ahead, which made him very satisfied. "I am afraid that Yang Gu will have to take on the task of raising food and grass for our army for a long time. I wonder if County magistrate Cui has any difficulties in this?"
Cui Zhe paused a little, "This year's autumn grain has been collected. If you collect it again, I'm afraid that the people will complain. However, the officials will do their best. If the skin is not preserved, where will the hair be attached? I think the people are still clear about it. Each family will take some surplus grain and gather it together, and An Qing army will definitely not starve."
Looking at Cui Zhe's face that was a little embarrassed, Yun Zhao smiled, "Mr. Cui said it well. Mengren rushed in, let alone food, and even his life cannot be saved. So now we have to work together to overcome difficulties together. I believe that such a life will not be too long. When Mengren is driven out of Luzhou, everything will be fine."
"General is right!" Cui Zhe nodded repeatedly.
"Let's go, enter the city!" Yun Zhao patted Wuyun Paxue's head. Wuyun Paxue took small steps and passed through the gate of Yanggu County. Amid the cheers of the people, he walked towards the county government.!~!
