Chapter 221 Strategy (Silver Alliance
"Chirp
The divine eagle soared high in the sky, passing over the long red dragon that was slowly surging on the ground. It flew all the way north, and after flying for seventy or eighty miles, it dived into an endless mountain forest.
"Chirp
Chen Sheng, who was inside the tent, heard the familiar roar of an eagle, walked out of the tent and blew a whistle.
The hawks hovering above the mountain forest immediately looked for the sound, folded their wings and swooped down.
"Pulling.
Chen Sheng raised his left arm and accurately caught the swooping falcon.
"Cuckoo
As soon as the falcon landed on his arm, it stretched its neck and rubbed his cheek vigorously like a licking dog.
"Hahaha, stinky thing!'
Chen Sheng raised his right hand and gently stroked the falcon's head: "Thank you for your hard work. I will find you two more wives later!"
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The falcon was stunned, and then shook its head like a rattle. While shaking its head, it opened its wide wings, lowered its upper body, and made an attack gesture towards Chen Sheng: Shovelling, I give you a chance to reorganize your language!
A man who is full does not know that a man who is hungry is hungry; a man who is hungry does not know that a man who is full is weak; a man with many wives knows the pain of having many wives!
Chen Sheng didn't care about its attacking posture. He grabbed its head and rubbed it wildly.
"Goooooooo!'
The falcon struggled hard and finally freed its head from his clutches. It drooped its head like a defeated rooster.
Chen Sheng stopped with satisfaction: "I can't cure you, little boy!"
He took off the bamboo tube from the eagle's feet, and with a slight exertion of his thumb and food, the bamboo tube broke into pieces, but the silk cloth contained in the bamboo tube was intact.
He shook it open, spread it in his hand and looked at it carefully: "Ji Lie, the eldest son of Yuzhou Muji Sheng, the chief official of Yuzhou Dian Army, was thirty-four years old. He was good at talking, good at singing and poetry, and loved Meiji very much.
There are many talented people in Anyi. Although he has been a long-term official in the army, he has always been in the inner palace (brothel) and rarely entered the military camp.
"Tsk!'
Chen Sheng twisted his mouth with no meaning, and didn't know whether he should thank his enemy for looking down on him.
We should still marvel at the corruption of the Zhou Dynasty government, which has reached this point, and the descendants of the clan still want to gain merit.
"Have you seen the enemy?'
He turned his head and looked at the falcon standing on his left arm.
The falcon grabbed his arm, turned around crookedly, pointed its butt towards him, lowered its head again, and tucked its head under its wings.
"Okay, I'll give you extra food later, -
How about a hare?’
The falcon remained motionless.
“Two?’
The falcon remained unmoved.
"Then three!"
"If you don't agree, I'll just have to find other Maomao to look at it for me, right?"
Chen Sheng said with a smile.
“Gu?’
Eagle Falcon suddenly raised his head, turned around and twisted his head to look at him: Shit shovel, you actually have other cuties?
Chen Sheng helped it tidy up the messy hair on its head: "Don't worry, no matter how many Maomaos I raise, you will always be my most caring Maomao!'
Falcon's head relaxed: That's pretty much it!
“Cuckoo.
It barked and gestured to Chen Sheng to describe where it had seen that army and how long it had flown from here.
Chen Sheng quickly understood: "Oh, seventy or eighty miles away!"
No wonder I haven't received a report from the scouts yet. It turns out that I haven't entered the warning range yet.
‘Somebody come!’
Chen Sheng called his soldiers and handed him the falcon on his arm, "Give him three hares.
The falcon nuzzled his cheek and followed the soldier obediently to receive its reward.
Chen Sheng turned around, looked at the huge military camp in front of him, which was as calm as a sunset village, and shouted in a low voice: "Promote your account!"
Not long after, all the officers in the camp and above the battalion level gathered in the commander's tent.
Chen Sheng didn't waste any time talking to them, and directly hung up the map of Xiaoyin River drawn by the Special War Bureau: "Our combat goal of entering Yingchuan this time is the 30,000 Yuzhou soldiers who support the Yingchuan County Guard!"
The generals stared at the map above the commander's tent, with a sudden realization in their eyes.
Then.
There's no after that.
There was no whispering.
There is no such thing as facing a powerful enemy.
Nor did it cause a thousand waves at once!
Everyone was staring intently at the map depicting the enemy's march route, quietly waiting for Chen Sheng to assign combat tasks. Yuzhou soldiers?
Is it strong?
Chen Sheng saw their expressions in his eyes.
He wanted to emphasize a few words, but thought about it and gave it up.
Pride is definitely not good.
But it’s better than fear!
If they can maintain this pride, they will be invincible and conquerable!
So why should they be proud?
If one day I can't hold on to this pride, I will be defeated.
This pride will naturally disappear.
Wouldn't it be better to save some words that demoralize and save morale for that day?
Anyway, if Shen Yong is as good as him, how can he let his subordinates fall into the situation of annihilation?
"Our combat mission in this battle is to cooperate with the Eighth Regiment and Ninth Regiment who are attacking Yangzhai City in Yingchuan County as a feint attack to capture Yangzhai City!"
Chen Sheng continued to introduce the tasks.
As the saying goes, things are kept secret. Before today, Fan Zeng was the only one who knew about his plan for this trip.
The rest of the people, even Ji Bu, who was one of his personal guards, did not know about the combat mission of this trip.
As for Chen County, Fan Zeng would cover up for him that he had led troops to go on an expedition to confuse the spies planted by various forces in Chen County.
"Since this is a feint attack, before the Eighth Regiment and the Ninth Regiment take Yangdi City, we can't win, we can only lose! Only if we lose will the Yangdi defenders relax their vigilance!"
"Only the eighth and ninth regiments have a chance to capture Yangdi with minimal casualties!"
"But there's a way to defeat it, and there's a reason for it!"
"The first and most important point is that we are just pretending to be defeated, not really defeated. We cannot really push our brothers to death!'
"Second point, even if it is a false defeat, in the first battle, we must take advantage of the unexpected opportunity of the enemy being overt and covert to defeat some of the 30,000 soldiers. Otherwise, the 30,000 soldiers will chase our brothers.
The uncomfortable thing is that we ourselves can't beat them too painfully. It really scares them. What if the defenders on the Yangdi side don't relax their vigilance?"
"Third point, since it's a fake defeat, you have to pretend to be a little bit more like it. If you say that ten thousand of our brothers rushed forward and then retreated, can the enemy believe that we are defeated? Do you believe it? But what if?
All the brothers knew that this was a fake defeat, and they all acted fake. There were 30,000 people on the opposite side, and all 30,000 people were blind? So, we can only know about the fake defeat, and we cannot let the lowly brothers know about it.
Know!"
"To sum up, in this battle, we have to let the brothers below fight according to normal fighting methods. But you officers, you have to prick up your ears and listen carefully. As long as I give the order to withdraw the troops,
As soon as we arrive, even if you are about to fall under the banner of the Chinese Army commander, you must withdraw immediately!'
"Also, I have arranged a caretaker in advance. When some of the brothers ask for money to retreat, they will fall down and pretend to be dead, and let other brothers carry them back. This will make the other side realize that we have suffered heavy casualties!"
"This way, you can pretend to be defeated!'
"Don't worry, I will leave a reserve team to support your retreat!"
"Okay, do you have any questions about combat missions?"
Chen Sheng clapped his hands and asked.
All the generals under the tent looked at each other in confusion, and finally all their eyes fell on Ji Bu: You were once the commander of the general's bodyguards.
Ji Bu's scalp was numb with so many gazes, so he had to stand up and clasp his fists and said: "Come back, general, it's okay to pretend to be defeated, but when will we be able to win in battle? Since my brothers have followed you in the war, they have never suffered a defeat. It's so unclear.
Bai's defeat at the hands of such a second-rate army will make him shameless in facing his brother Pao Ze!'
After hearing this, all the generals in the tent stared at him with relief: Good brother, I have wronged you!
Chen Sheng said without thinking: "The day the Eighth Regiment and the Ninth Regiment take the city of Yangzhai will be the time for us to counterattack!'
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ji Bu to speak again, he continued: "When you were studying in Jixia Academy, I taught you that strategy is higher than tactics, and tactics revolve around strategy. Now is a good example!'
"Does it mean anything to our Chen County to destroy these 30,000 Yuzhou soldiers?"
"No! In such a big Yuzhou, there are only one million men if not two million. Even if we leave all 30,000 Yuzhou soldiers here, Yuzhou Mu Jisheng can easily pull out another 30,000 soldiers!"
"Does taking Yingchuan mean anything to us in Chen County?"
“Not only is it there, it’s also huge!’
"Yingchuan is rich, with plenty of food and arable land. If we take Yingchuan, our brothers will no longer have to scrimp and save a mouthful of rice soup for the folks in the county! We can eat every meal, and the folks in the county will also
I can eat every meal!”
"In addition, Yingchuan and Chenliu are the gateways to the southeastern part of Jiuzhou connecting Sizhou. As long as we capture these two counties, the imperial court will not dare to push Chen County too far. If it really pushes us hard, we men can pull the lever at any time.
, rushed directly into the capital, entered the court, and beheaded him!'
"Taking Yingchuan County is a strategy!"
"It's a tactic to defeat these 30,000 Yuzhou soldiers!"
"So, we cooperate with the Eighth Regiment and the Ninth Regiment to fight!"
"So, we have to wait until the Eighth and Ninth Regiments are successful before launching a counterattack!"
"You guys, do you understand?'
All the generals in the tent stood up and shouted: "Understood!"
They really understood it, so much so that fire lit up in their eyes.
"Surge into the capital, charge into the court, and behead him?
"Isn't this the ultimate goal of "Princes, generals, ministers, would rather have the seed"?'
As soon as Chen Sheng saw the green light in the eyes of these brats, he felt a dull pain in his brain. He couldn't help but scolded with a straight face: "You guys, don't forget what I told you just now, we have to
Fake it! Do you understand it?"
"Who dares to pretend to be deaf and unable to hear my order to retreat?
"Let me put the ugly words first. Under the battlefield, I am your dean and your brother. Behind closed doors, we can talk about anything and discuss any issues. Except for my mother-in-law, I can't
I’ll find it for you, even if you want to recognize me as your father, I won’t stop you!”
"But as long as I'm on the battlefield, I'm just your general!
"My words are military orders!
"Anyone who violates this rule will be killed!"
"have you understood?'
The generals straightened their bodies and shouted in unison: "Understood!"
But as they shouted "understand", the fire in their eyes became more intense.
'The general only said to listen to military orders.
‘I didn’t say you couldn’t rush into the capital, charge into the court, and chop off his head.
‘Listen again to what the General said. Behind closed doors, you can say anything and discuss any issues.
‘The general clearly regards us as a family!
"Okay, let's all go down and get ready!"
Chen Sheng looked at the undisguised fanaticism on their brows and waved his hands feebly: "The enemy is still more than fifty miles away from us. Calculating the time and distance, they will stay by the Xiaoyin River tonight and cross the river early tomorrow morning. We will wait until they are halfway across the river tomorrow to launch an attack from their rear. Later, I will send the retreat route to your regiment headquarters, so everyone is excited. I am waiting to go home and give you a celebration banquet!"
"Celebration party?"
"For your information, General, I would like to order a pot of beef first."
Chen Ying suddenly smiled and asked.
All the battalion officers of the Seventh Regiment turned their attention to Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng frowned and scolded: "You bastard! How dare you mention beef in front of me!"
As soon as he frowned, the temperature in the tent seemed to drop by more than ten degrees.
Many of the seventh regiment battalion officers who looked at Chen Sheng lowered their gazes and did not dare to look directly at him again.
Only Chen Ying still looked at Chen Sheng with a smile.
After Chen Sheng pretended to scold him, he changed the subject and chuckled: "But if you can bring all the brothers under your command home intact, I can go search for you and see where you are exhausted." old cow
Many battalion officers of the Seventh Regiment all raised their heads, their eyes quickly moving between Chen Sheng and Chen Ying.
