Tan Daoji looked at Zhu Lingxiu and smiled slightly: "Why, Lingxiu, you feel that there is no battle to fight, so are you unhappy?"
Zhu Lingxiu gritted his teeth: "Of course, the front army and the Chinese army are fighting a war, and we are here to stand still and watch our brothers from other armies bleed and die. As a soldier, I feel really uneasy!"
Tan Daoji nodded: "I can completely understand your mood. However, fighting depends on timing and the art of war. Don't you know the responsibilities of our rear army in this battle?"
Zhu Lingxiu said loudly: "Our rear army is the elite of the entire army. The officers and soldiers under our command are your own troops, Brother Daoji. They are also the most powerful in the Jingzhou Army. They are placed in the rear army. First, to prevent the enemy from attacking.
The second reason for taking my retreat and encircling our army is to serve as a reserve for the entire war and to be used in the decisive counterattack. The third reason is also to ensure the retreat of the entire army. If the war goes unfavorably, we must open the way.
Open the passage back to the Matou Camp. Brother Daoji, am I right?"
Tan Daoji nodded: "That's very well said. Lingxiu, you understand the role of our army in this battle. The battle between the front army and the Chinese army is tight now, but our army's front is still very stable. If the demon thief does not win by surprise, he will not be able to win."
The one who broke through our defense line. Now Xu Daofu himself has led more than 10,000 people to press on the north side of our central army. The same reason as our 6,000 rear troops are standing still. That is, the decisive battle has not yet come, and the reserve team has not yet arrived.
When attacking."
Zhu Lingxiu gritted his teeth: "Then can't we take this opportunity to dispatch fresh troops first and directly defeat the enemy's current troops? We have to wait for the enemy's changes before we take action?"
Tan Daoji said seriously: "This is something that Brother Daogui has to consider, and it is not something you and I can decide. The way to fight this battle is to use the front army to consume the enemy's offensive force as much as possible, so that the enemy loses its elite troops.
, and also consumed their physical strength. After beating the troops to exhaustion, we took the opportunity to counterattack, but the demon thieves were also very cunning. By detouring to the north of our army and using fire attack tactics, they almost defeated our front army at once. If
According to your opinion, maybe our central army will send thousands of people to support the front army at that time. If the central army is empty, how can we resist the attack of the demon thieves on the central army?"
Zhu Lingxiu began to sweat on her forehead and murmured: "This, I really didn't think about this well. Oh, I was too impatient and impulsive. Brother Daoji, I'm sorry, just think that I just farted."
"
Tan Daoji's face was solemn, his eyes swept across the faces of the generals, and finally stopped on Zhu Lingxiu's face: "Lingxiu, as a general, you have to do something for the rear army as small as ours, with six thousand soldiers, as big as us
The whole legion is responsible for the lives of 20,000 troops. You must not be impulsive. You are a fierce general who charges into the battle and is indomitable. This is your advantage. But now that you are the deputy general of the rear army, you cannot just think about the problem from the perspective of a fierce general who charges into the battle.
Yes, the demon thieves are extremely cunning in fighting, and there are endless tricks and tricks. If we just attack fiercely, we will fall into their trap. In the past twenty years, are there still a few Beifu soldiers who have been defeated and died like this?
"
Everyone was shocked and said in unison: "I am willing to follow Brother Daoji's arrangements and no longer discuss military plans."
Tan Daoji sighed: "Everyone is asking for a fight. You have a good intention to ask for a fight. In fact, I am just like you. I wish Brother Daogui could beat the attack drum now and attack across the board. But now, the enemy is still strong and I am weak. The enemy is attacking.
We are defending. We still need to hold on to consume the enemy's troops and morale. When the enemy's main force is immobile, our rear troops cannot move lightly. If we continue to fight like this, the monster thieves will consume more energy in the attack than we do.
With several times more troops and vigor, they will not be able to fight for more than an hour. Then Xu Daofu will either charge the reserve army and give it a try, or he will withdraw his troops and retreat. At this time, we are the ones to attack.
Chance."
Having said this, Tan Daoji paused: "Moreover, the less fighting there is in our rear army, the more dangerous it is. On the battlefield, it is very strange to deliberately leave our troops without attacking.
, this shows that either the demon thieves are not strong enough to attack comprehensively, or they are hiding their strength and want to defeat our rear army in one fell swoop. Just like the battle of the front army, the flanks began to look very safe and there was no fighting, but when the main force of the demon thieves suddenly
Immediately after the appearance, there was a fire attack and a surprise attack, and within a quarter of an hour, the entire army of monster thieves had all turned there, and even Xu Daofu's more than 20,000 troops appeared on the flank of the front army."
Zhu Lingxiu murmured to himself: "Yes, we were still discussing just now. Almost all the main force of the enemy's army has reached the flank of the front army. If at that time the army were sent to attack the north side of the front army, I'm afraid...
Brother Zhi cannot resist it."
Another young man named Hu Longshi, about 20 years old, with a purple face and short beard, is Hu Fan's eldest son Hu Longshi. He originally served under He Wuji of the Jiangzhou Army. The last time Tianshi Dao raised troops from Lingnan, Jiangzhou
The legion was completely wiped out, but the young man fought his way to Jingzhou, where he was placed under Tan Daoji's command and served as a rear soldier to join the army.
Hu Longshi said: "I'm afraid it's because Li Nanfeng used a fire attack at that time. The fire was so strong that it didn't burn our soldiers and horses, but also blocked the passage for the demon thieves to attack. So Xu Daofu didn't have a chance to attack.
I simply took my soldiers and horses to the direction of the Chinese army."
Many generals nodded, and Zhu Lingxiu also grinned and cast an approving look: "Not bad, Xiao Hu No. 1, your analytical skills have improved. It seems that you have learned a lot about your father's art of war."
Well."
When Hu Fan was at home, he implemented military management of his more than 60 sons. Every morning, he would beat drums to gather his sons and start a day of civil and military training. All the children were numbered. As the eldest son, Hu Longshi naturally
He was also No. 1, so his uncles would jokingly call him No. 1 Xiao Hu, and Hu Longshi happily accepted this, and this became his nickname in the army.
A trace of pride flashed across Hu Longshi's face, but it disappeared in a flash: "This is just my personal idea, and I would like to ask the generals to correct it."
Tan Daoji sighed: "There is a certain truth, but I want to ask Xiao Hu No. 1, Li Nanfeng's fire attack did not burn our army. Even if it did, it would still be a field of fire. We cannot take advantage of the situation to attack. If we want to attack our army,
For the front army, the best way is to attack from the flanks with fire, and a frontal assault is the best, right?" ()
