Bao Sizhi was dumbfounded and opened his mouth, but could not speak. After a long time, he said bitterly: "You are the only one who is powerful in the Beifu Army. That's it. Our Haiyan militiamen are just losers. We fail to achieve anything and fail."
Youyu, since you look down on us like this, why are you still staying together? Liu Canjun, take your leave!"
Tan Pingzhi's face darkened: "Bao Sizhi, please understand that you are assigned to Liu Shenjun's command. You are not allowed to come and leave whenever you want. There are rules in the army. Just what you just said
If so, you can be dealt with by military law. Don’t think that as the son of Magistrate Bao and your status as a scholar, military law can’t deal with you!"
Bao Sizhi laughed, and a trace of pride flashed across his face: "Master Tan, I'm afraid you have forgotten one thing. The military order for my attachment to coordinate with your Beifu Army is only within the territory of Haiyan, but where is this?
Woolen cloth?"
Tan Pingzhi's face changed slightly. He really didn't expect this. For a moment, he was speechless. Liu Yu stood up slowly and said to Bao Sizhi: "Captain Bao, I have never used military orders."
, superiors and subordinates come to oppress you. Since we are comrades who live and die together and fight side by side, we should pay attention to unity. If we all have complaints against our comrades and do not trust each other, how can we win the battle in the face of a powerful enemy?
?You can come and go freely when you are here, whether in Hudu or Haiyan. I will not use military orders to restrict you. Please don't misunderstand me."
Bao Sizhi laughed: "I didn't expect that Liu Canjun would say such a thing! It seems that you still understand the overall situation and understand that it is difficult to move forward without the support of aristocratic families in Wu. If you had known this, why didn't you make contributions to us in the first place?
Where are the chances?”
Liu Yu said calmly: "We are all soldiers. We must consider relationships, but more importantly, winning is the first priority. When the enemy's situation is unknown, using Beifu soldiers with strong combat effectiveness in the first battle can not only guarantee victory, but also defeat the enemy."
Jingqi, we have chased the demon thieves for hundreds of miles this time in order to eliminate them all, leaving no one behind. There are many battles to be fought later, and we also need the joint efforts of Beifu soldiers, Haiyan militia, and Hudu defenders. Why should Mr. Bao worry?
What about lack of opportunity to fight?”
Bao Sizhi's brows relaxed and he said with a smile: "Liu Canjun, when you say this, I feel relieved. I have long heard that you, Liu Jinu, are the most fair in dealing with things and have won the trust of brothers. Today I saw
, it is indeed well-deserved. Well, then I won’t care about the fact that I don’t need to fight in this first battle. When will the next battle be, please don’t drag us down again.”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "The enemy will have two reactions after suffering a loss this time. One is to crazily want to come to our military camp to challenge and take revenge. The other is to leave the camp directly and find an opportunity to board the ship and leave."
Tan Pingzhi curled up his lips: "These two reactions are completely different. Why are they like this?"
Everyone's eyes were on Liu Yu, and Liu Yu looked at Tan Daoji: "Daoji, do you agree with my analysis?"
Tan Daoji nodded: "Brother Jinu's analysis is closely related to the art of war. If the enemy army judges that it still has the advantage, it will find a way to get rid of this dilemma of one city and one battalion and concentrate its forces to attack one end. Our army's field combat capabilities
It is far stronger than the defenders of Hudu, so we cannot rule out the possibility of the enemy concentrating their forces and storming our camp. However, Jinuge is famous, and the two battles in Juzhang and Haiyan have already frightened the enemy. If we cannot hold on, we will surely be defeated.
The enemy did not dare to attack by force, but tried every means to lure us into battle."
Bao Sizhi said unconvinced: "Then we can go out to the camp and fight them. Now that we have won for a while, our morale is strong, what's wrong?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Our camp has insufficient troops, and it is cut off from the Hudu Fortress and lacks contact. If we really want to go to war, it is difficult to expect the defenders of Hudu to support us from behind. Besides, my advice to Governor Yuan is to hold on
If we don't come out, if the enemy forces pretend to attack our barracks, but instead ambush the main force and ambush the defenders of Hudu, there will be big trouble. Therefore, if we hold on without fighting, we will win. This is good for us and for the defenders of Hudu.
It’s all the same.”
Bao Sizhi nodded: "Then why did the bandits take a detour to go to sea? Their troops are superior, why did they leave?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "This was their original plan. This time the demon thieves came ashore to capture Jiankang, so they chose this amphibious approach and sent an elite army ashore to attack Jiankang in one fell swoop.
Open up the passage from Juzhang to Haiyan and then to Hudu, mobilize the main force of our army to concentrate in the area from Kuaiji to Wuxing, and then suddenly turn to attack Hudu, meet with the fleet here, obtain baggage and food and grass, and then advance along the river to directly attack Jiankang
, before taking Jiankang, you can also capture Jingkou first and control the families of the Beifu army officers and soldiers. As long as the Beifu army changes sides, the Jin Dynasty will be destroyed. Therefore, my strategy in the three places this time is to use city defense to delay
Thieves, slow down their speed and buy time for our army to assemble. If it weren't for Mr. Bao insisting on coming here this time, I should be in Hudu City right now, so I wouldn't have to worry about defending the city."
Bao Sizhi's face turned slightly red, and he turned to say in a deep voice: "But not everything will go according to your ideas. The monsters and thieves have caused harm to the people along the way. As soldiers, we have the responsibility to defend the land and we don't care about it at all.
, it will also damage the morale of the army. If it doesn't work, if the demon thieves take these people and the loot on the ship, we will be sinners for the ages!"
Liu Yu nodded: "So if the demon thief really wants to escape and get on the boat, we will pursue him. Mr. Bao, don't worry, if I pursue the demon thief, I will take you as the vanguard."
Bao Sizhi clapped his hands and laughed: "Are you really going to take me as a pioneer? Don't lie to me."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "There is no joke in the army. Mr. Bao, go and prepare yourself. You may be attacked at any time."
Bao Sizhi turned around proudly: "Brothers, let's go, sharpen your weapons, and prepare to kill thieves and make meritorious deeds!"
After the footsteps of Bao Sizhi and his men faded away, Xiang Jing said angrily: "Brother Jinu, I don't understand why you are spoiling this kid like this!"
Liu Yu sighed: "If I didn't win him over like this, he would really lead his men to fight the monster thieves. His death would be a big deal. If the monster thieves took their corpses and equipment and placed them under Hudu City, the morale of the soldiers in the city would be affected.
If we waver, Governor Yuan might be impulsive and angry and go out for a decisive battle, and that would be the end of it. I predict that the demon thief will not run away directly, but will challenge, so for now, we just need to hold on without fighting until Marshal Liu and his army are in front of them.
Come, there will be a turning point!"
