Zhu Chaoshi sighed: "Brother Ying, you have to understand one thing. When we first sent out troops more than a year ago, we caught the Jin army by surprise. In addition to He Wuji's three to five thousand troops who were ready for battle, Tan Daoji
, Tan Zhi's troops and horses are not always available. For example, in the Battle of Baling, you brought 7,000 elite forwards to fight with less than 2,000 troops in total, and about half of them were temporarily recruited government servants, Kuding,
It is naturally effortless, but this is not the true strength of the Jin army."
"After Liu Daogui stabilized his position, he recruited a large number of experienced Huanchu veterans in Jingzhou, and cooperated with more than ten thousand Beifu troops as the backbone.
Killing Huan Qian internally is the best proof!"
"Remember Huan Qian, when he started the uprising, he was unstoppable, but when he really encountered the main force of the Jingzhou Army, he couldn't even withstand it for a day, and he himself was defeated and killed. Over the past six months, we have fought against the Jin Army under Meng Huaiyu many times.
Yuzhou's soldiers and horses fought against each other, don't you understand their true strength? Brother Ying, you also led the troops to fight with them on land several times, what was the result?"
Yingjiu's beard was trembling slightly, his throat was shaking, but he couldn't say a word.
An unusually sonorous and harsh sound of metal and iron sounded from outside the cabin: "I agree with General Zhu's point of view. The Jin army is indeed a powerful enemy and should not be underestimated."
Everyone's eyes turned to the source of the sound, and they saw the cabin door open with a "bang" sound. The clear smell of the river breeze outside, accompanied by a tall black figure, rushed into the door, and a lifeless figure burst into the door.
The bronze mask, combined with the piercing eyes behind the mask, went straight into Zhu Chaoshi's eyes.
Several Tianshi Dao leaders standing below stood up, put their hands on the hilts of their swords, and shouted in a deep voice: "Who are you? How dare you break into the commander's cabin without permission?!"
Yingjiu and Fan Wubing saluted the man at the same time: "I have seen your envoy."
The black robe smiled slightly, flicked his wrist, and the Celestial Master's Token was copied into his hand and showed it to everyone. At this time, everyone, including Zhu Chaoshi, knelt down and clasped their fists, respectfully saying: "I've seen you before."
Leader."
When everyone stood up again, the black robe had already put the token into his sleeve. Zhu Chaoshi looked at Fan Wubing and said, "You two senior brothers seem to know this senior?"
Fan Wubing nodded: "Yes, before Master left, he specifically asked us to meet this distinguished envoy. He has been a friend of the leader for many years and has done many things for the cult. This time the leader left the army and went to Yuzhang.
I am afraid that, Junior Brother Zhu, you are not qualified enough to carry out the military orders smoothly, so I specially asked this senior to carry out the Holy Orders of the Divine Sect and assist you, Junior Brother Zhu, in giving orders."
Zhu Chaoshi said softly "Oh", looked at the black robe, and said: "May I ask how you call me your honorable envoy?"
The black robe nodded: "Just call me Honorable Envoy. I haven't used my name for many years and I can't remember it. Besides, the name is just a code name and doesn't mean anything. The general only needs to know that I accept it."
I came here to help you after receiving the entrustment from Master Lu."
Zhu Chaoshi raised his brows: "In this case, the envoy holds the supreme token of our religion and is personally authorized by the leader of the religion. Then please sit on this handsome seat and let you take command."
The black robe waved his hand with a smile, and sat down on the opposite side of the long table, directly facing Zhu Chaoshi, and said calmly: "General Zhu, I can't fight, and you can't subdue the crowd. Leader Lu is just afraid that you will suppress him.
The leaders have asked me to stay here with orders. You can just continue to command. If anyone fails to carry out your military orders, I will help you and deal with them in the name of Leader Lu."
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu recently to read and catch up on new books. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www.yeguoyuedu.com is available for Android and Apple.]
Zhu Chaoshi smiled slightly: "Then I will thank you."
He said this, but he was thinking quickly in his heart. When Lu Xun left, he didn't talk to him about the envoy and the token at all. However, when he took charge of the army, he first asked Yingjiu and He
Fan Wubing repeatedly criticized himself and belittled his authority as the coach.
Then when he regained control of the situation and clarified his commanding authority, another respected envoy came in. He clearly had the highest authority and could command the three armies, but he said that he did not understand military affairs and could not command, and would only support himself.
This clearly means that he does not trust himself, and this respected envoy named Zhu Zhi is Lu Xun’s surveillance of him. Judging from the fact that senior disciples like Yingjiu and Fan Wubing respect this person, Lu Xun must be
He held this person's status very high and strictly ordered these two disciples to obey his instructions.
However, the troops under Yingjiu and Fan Wubing accounted for more than one-third of the entire army. It was impossible for these two people to really obey their orders. Lu Xun did not want to really attack Jiangling, but just wanted to bluff.
Yingjiu and Fan Wubing were at odds with him. In the end, they could not reach a unified resolution and could only stand still.
Although Yingjiu is rude and violent, he is by no means a fool. What he said just now is probably just a probing word. He wants to find out his true intentions, to really monitor his eyes, and to hide a knife in the smile in front of him.
The face of the respected envoy, and even Lu Xun's surveillance of him, were probably due to this person's suggestion.
It turns out that I want to take advantage of this rare opportunity to lead the army to deliberately introduce this Tianshi Dao army into the Jedi, so that the brothers of the Jingzhou Legion can annihilate them in one fell swoop, and even counterattack Xiangzhou, or catch up with them.
They went to rescue Liu Yi, but in this way, it was obvious that Lu Xun and the venerable were already on guard, and their plan to split their forces and let Liu Daogui and Tan Daoji defeat them one by one was no longer feasible.
As for the sergeants under his command, there are only about 2,000, and most of them are former surrendered troops from Jiangzhou. More than half of them have personally killed their comrades who refused to surrender. There is no way to look back, and they are not likely to be like me. They would rather die.
If he wants to make meritorious service and atone for his sins, his first priority now is probably to find a way to escape on his own and report to Liu Daogui. And to realize this plan, the most critical word is: fast!
Zhu Chaoshi made up his mind, looked at the black robe, and said calmly: "The task assigned to us by Master Lu before he left was to bluff and pretend that he wanted to seize Jiangling on a large scale. The current Jiangling is almost the same as our Changsha County.
Across the river, there are two closest places where you can land: Ma Tou Ferry and Wulin Ferry."
"In addition, Jiangling is a water city, close to the river. If we rely directly on the powerful fleet, we can also form strong pressure in the outer city of Jiangling. As long as we can move, the Qiao and Shu troops in the Xicheng area can also
We will follow up and press towards Jiangling from the west to form a response force."
"So, I think it's best for us to divide our troops into three groups. Senior Brother Ying and Senior Brother Fan each have 15,000 men and attack Ma Tou Ferry and Wulin Du respectively. And I will personally lead the main fleet to attack directly.
Gangneung Outer City!”
