Shen Tianzi spoke with his head downcast and his face flushed. This strong man like a bear now looked like a three-year-old child who had not received any candy. He was almost in tears, which made the generals around him burst into laughter. He said angrily: "Why are you laughing? Let me change whoever laughs."
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Tianzi, I laughed too. Otherwise, you and I can switch. I will go to the rear army and you will sit in this position."
Shen Tianzi grinned: "Commander, you also know that I will say whatever I say in anger. Don't take it seriously. However, please think about what I just said. We Shen's family soldiers are very experienced. The elites who have fought in hundreds of battles have made many military exploits after joining the Beifu Army in the past two years. Everyone knows that we are all good, so dragging us behind the army is a bit wasteful, isn't it?"
Wang Zhen'e said coldly: "Tianzi, although your subordinates are capable, they are mostly good at using short weapons. They are not as good at handling long weapons and chariots as the old Beifu soldiers. This time we are facing the Yan Kingdom's cavalry. You guys I'm afraid that the close combat skills may not be fully utilized, so it would be good for everyone if they can be used as surprise troops in the rear."
When Shen Tianzi heard this, he became very angry and said in a deep voice: "Zhen evil, it's meaningless for you to say that. As for the rifles and spears we use, they are also very good. Besides, the commander gave us a thousand essences." As for the cavalry, there are only more than 2,000 cavalry in the whole army. If half of them are placed in the rear army at once, won't they be easy to use?"
Shen Linzi and Shen Qingzhi looked at each other and saluted at the same time: "Please give us a chance to go into battle and kill the bandits. We will definitely not let you down."
Liu Yu said calmly: "Three generals, please don't be anxious. I have you in the rear army not because I don't trust you, but because this battle is different from the past, and the defense of the rear army is crucial."
Shen Tianzi scratched the back of his head in confusion: "The rear army still needs to defend. Is it still crucial? Commander, I don't understand."
Liu Yu sighed: "In the past, when going to war, the main camp was at the back. The army went out to form a formation, and guarded the camp with thin soldiers and heavy supplies, relying on the camp. In this way, the troops in front had a basis for advancing and retreating. Even if the battle was unfavorable, they would still be able to retreat. It can be returned, so the rear army mostly releases non-combatants and wounded soldiers."
"But this battle is special. Our army does not set up camps or erect fences. It relies entirely on heavy baggage vehicles equipped with shields to act as protection, covering the two wings and forcing forward. Our entire army is like a mobile camp, carrying heavy baggage and food. It should be placed in the rear army as before, but placed in the center army, and carried forward with heavy baggage troops and auxiliary manpower."
Yu Yue on one side clapped his hands suddenly: "Yes, I said something is wrong. The carts that usually transport grain and ordnance are all used to defend the two sides. What about the food and ordnance?!"
Liu Muzhi frowned slightly: "Commander, for such a big battle, wouldn't it be inappropriate to use manpower to carry all the heavy military equipment forward? Should we leave a temporary camp in the rear to place these things?"
Liu Yu waved his hands flatly and said: "No, the number of our troops in this battle is far inferior to that of the enemy. Every manpower is very precious. It is impossible to set up camp in the rear as usual. If thousands of non-combat troops are placed in the rear, then
The enemy can use the high mobility of the cavalry to intercept the rear camp, but it is impossible for me to separate combat troops to defend it, so I simply concentrate the non-combatants in the central army and follow my flag to advance. This is the only option."
Wang Zhen'e said in a deep voice: "The commander-in-chief is right. In this battle, there is no advance or retreat, no life or death. Only by moving forward with the determination to die can we win. Any hesitation or retrospection will distract the morale of the army.
, and then failed.”
Yu Yue said angrily: "What do you know, a young general? Even if the army can do this, what about the Queen? Her imperial camp is also in the army. Do you want the Queen to carry these heavy objects on her shoulders?
?"
Wang Miaoyin's voice sounded from behind the stage: "In order to win, I can do anything. Every guard, maid, eunuch, and even myself here will obey your orders as long as Liu Cheqi says a word."
, there is no queen here, only the soldiers of the Northern Army of the Great Jin Dynasty."
Everyone's expressions changed, including Liu Yu, and they all turned around and bowed in a military salute to Wang Shen'ai, who was dressed in military uniform and looked very handsome. Today's Wang Shen'ai, wearing silver armor and white tassels, was usually weak and charming.
The mother of the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty, at this moment, was like a mysterious goddess from the Nine Heavens descending to earth, put on a suit of armor, and exuded an awe-inspiring and heroic aura.
After Liu Yu saluted, he frowned slightly. Although Wang Miaoyin's unique beauty just now really shocked him, he still said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the war is fierce and dangerous. You are willing to go to the battlefield with the army in person. That's it."
It is very morale-boosting and makes the soldiers admire them. However, this battle is dangerous and I will wait at the front to fight. You should avoid it as soon as possible. I promise that I will let you know the situation of the battle as soon as possible."
Wang Miaoyin said calmly: "Liu Cheqi just said that it is impossible to set up a camp for single non-combatants, and there are no soldiers and horses to defend. Although I am wearing a military uniform, I still don't have the strength to go into battle to kill the enemy.
As for me, all my guards who can fight are at Liu Cheqi's disposal. As for me, and other people who can't fight, the Chinese army is here to help. I can help carry an extra bag of rice, or an extra handful.
Swords, even waving the flag more, beating the drum more, are all things that are beneficial to the army. As long as it is for victory, we are willing to do anything."
A heavily armored Forbidden Army general, who was the Su Guard officer guarding Wang Miaoyin this time, was Sima Xiuzhi's son Sima Guofan. He said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the duty of our Forbidden Army guards is to protect you.
I will not obey anyone else's orders, so please..."
Wang Miaoyin said sternly: "Stupid, if the situation of the army is unfavorable, then where can I, a weak woman, escape? If the army of chariots and cavalry all fails, what is the use of more than a hundred of you forbidden troops? If you don't
If you are willing to go forward and fight, then come with me, and the army here will obey Liu Cheqi's orders and do what you can to advance, and don't miss the important military affairs!"
Sima Guofan gritted his teeth and saluted: "I will obey the orders of Her Royal Highness the Queen. I and other imperial guards will follow Liu Cheqi's orders."
Liu Yu sighed: "Now that Her Majesty the Queen has made up her mind, I have nothing to say. After a while, the formation was set up, and all the soldiers brought their fighting weapons and each carried a day's worth of dry food. All other food, grass, and baggage were abandoned.
, Go into battle lightly. The medical herbs, medical belts, etc. that must be used are carried by the doctors themselves. The entire army goes into battle lightly, and the non-combatants are concentrated in the central army and advance in groups. "
