Chapter 12 This palace will never go to the battlefield

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Qin Hong. Zhu Houzhao naturally understood what Qin Hong said. He also knew what Qin Hong was worried about. On the one hand, it was because the road was not easy to walk, and on the other hand, he was worried about the long journey and ineffective combat. From Guyuan to In Ordos, this step is naturally no problem, but from Ordos to Fengzhoutan, this part of the road is not easy to walk.

Not only is the supply pressure high, but the terrain is complicated. If you are not careful, you may be ambushed or simply lost.

Regarding this, Zhu Houzhao was not worried, and it was useless to worry. What he wanted to cultivate was the Ming army's ability to conduct long-distance raids and survive in the wild. If they could not even defeat Fengzhou Beach, how would they conduct future expeditions, fight north, and march to the north? To reach Xinjiang and Qinghai? So this battle must be fought. As for the supply problem, Zhu Houzhao was not unprepared.

When walking with compressed biscuits, simply carrying food is troublesome, but carrying compressed biscuits is not so troublesome.

Another very important point is that Zhu Houzhao believed that by capturing Ordos, he could obtain a lot of supplies. The so-called supplies were actually war horses.

How did Genghis Khan's troops go on an expedition? One person rides more than one person. You must know that this multiple people riding more horses is not just for you to ride on the horse. These war horses are food, mare's milk is water, and horse meat is food. Bring some tea. It can carry out long-distance raids. This is what Zhu Houzhao wants to build. To fight at his doorstep, it is an infantry cavalry.

Besides, wilderness survival training is also a required subject for the Black Dragon Army. Zhu Houzhao did not believe that the Black Dragon Army, which had received professional training, would fail at such a distance from Ordos to Hohhot.

However, there is no need to argue with Qin Hong about this matter. He smiled and Zhu Houzhao said: "Qin Qing, it is still a bit far to say that we will conquer Fengzhou Beach. What we want to conquer is Ordos. As for whether to conquer Fengzhou Beach, this We have to wait until we finish the battle in Ordos!" As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao turned his eyes to the generals on the side: "Do you have any opinions?"

What opinions can people have? They have been suppressed to death in the past few years. They spend all day in the Black Dragon Army doing nothing but training.

Many of them here are the old Black Dragon Army from three years ago. They were looking forward to this battle very much, so they stood up together and said: "General, I will obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Okay, let's get ready!" Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said: "Get up early to make food, and we'll be out at ten o'clock in the morning!" As he said, Zhu Houzhao added: "I will lead three thousand black dragon guards behind as backup. Once any unit is in danger, you can call for help in time!"

"I will obey the military order!" the generals agreed, then turned around and walked out.

When everyone left, Qin Hong's expression changed. He looked at Zhu Houzhao and asked, "Isn't His Highness the Prince not leading the army this time?"

"Yes!" Zhu Houzhao nodded matter-of-factly: "This time, I am acting as a backup and supervising the battle. I will not participate in the charge." After speaking, Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, looking calm and calm. It seems that what I said is true. Don't worry too much, but Zhu Houzhao's words are obviously unbelievable.

Wang Shouren looked helpless on the side. Wang Shouren didn't believe it when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said he wouldn't go to the battlefield.

I have been spending a lot of time with His Highness the Crown Prince. For such a long time, how can I still understand the character and thoughts of His Highness the Crown Prince? His Highness the Crown Prince’s martial arts skills are absolutely unparalleled that I have never seen before. The key is that on the battlefield. I really yearned for him not to get involved in such a big war? It would just be to fool outsiders.

The prince said this, and Qin Hong couldn't say he didn't believe it, but he still had a constipated expression on his face. Obviously, he didn't expect that His Highness the prince would actually say that. This is too, too much!

Zhu Houzhao could naturally guess some of Qin Hong's thoughts, but Zhu Houzhao was also complaining. Why didn't anyone believe him when he told the truth?

When he followed this time, he was really following behind. If there was a problem along the way, then he would go and support him. This was also a guarantee, wasn't it? The battle situation was in a stalemate. If he led the three thousand black dragon army to attack, wouldn't that happen in an instant? Can they change the situation of the war? These people can't understand their intentions at all. They are really like summer insects.

After beating Qin Hong away and looking at Wang Shouren who had the same expression of constipation next to him, Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Whatever you are looking at, you have to follow me and hold the battle from behind."

The morning in the northwest is still a bit cool, but the army camp is already lively at this time. Breakfast has been finished. The soldiers are arranging their horses and equipment, with serious faces and a bit of excitement. The generals are Checking along the way, no problem could be found. Zhu Houzhao also listened to the armor patrolling the camp.

Next to Zhu Houzhao is Wang Shouren, who is also wearing armor. Although Wang Shouren's force value is not very high, it is pretty good for a soldier.

Naturally, it is impossible for the army to gather together with 50,000 people. The first group of 20,000 forwards has already come out. Among the 20,000 people, there are 5,000 scouts, who are specialized scout guards. These people wear light armor and can run well on horseback. The fastest horse. You must know that there are different types of horses. Some have good endurance and can run long distances, but they cannot run fast in a short period of time.

Some horses do not have that good endurance, but their short-distance running ability is very strong. The scouts ride horses with such strong short-distance running ability.

There are 20,000 forwards, 30,000 troops, plus Zhu Houzhao's 3,000 black dragon guards, including more than 10,000 auxiliary troops and 10,000 cavalry from the northwest.

These 10,000 auxiliary soldiers were not to feed horses or anything like that, but to repair weapons and arrows, some were veterinarians, and most of them were to transport grain and grass. These people, Zhu Houzhao, arranged for them to be arranged with the 10,000 cavalry sent by Qin Hong. Together. Their task is to take good care of these auxiliary soldiers. Although they are auxiliary soldiers, these people are not infantry. They can fight just as well as they are mounted on horses.

The auxiliary soldiers of the Black Dragon Army are also carefully selected. They are regarded as the reserves of the Black Dragon Army. Once the battle losses in the front are too large, they can fill in at any time.

A team of nearly 80,000 people came out, with 20,000 in the vanguard and 10,000 on the left and right wings. Zhu Houzhao led 10,000 black dragon troops, 3,000 black dragon guards, 10,000 northwest cavalry and 10,000 auxiliary troops behind them. The army rushed forward in a mighty manner. After leaving Guyuan, we headed straight to the grassland. Guyuan City, which had just become lively, suddenly became quiet again, and even seemed a little deserted.
