"Chirp..."

The eagle chirps and clears the sky, fighting in the sky.

Chen Sheng sat firmly on the back of the eagle, overlooking Zhang Han's army's camp below.

The camp of Zhang Han's army was built in the plum blossom pattern, which is also the shape of a vessel, and was divided into five camps on the banks of Honggou tributaries. Each camp was ten miles apart, and the small camp was connected to the big camp.

For the antlers, ditches were dug outside the camp and antlers were set up. Inside the camp, arrow towers and war towers were erected, and the passages for people and horses were clearly separated.

Looking down from a high altitude, the huge camp stretching for more than fifty miles is like an ancient basalt with thorns, creeping steadily on the ground.

Anyone who bites it will bleed!

Chen Sheng has not yet personally fought against Zhang Han's ability in leading troops, so it is difficult to say highly of him.

But Zhang Han's ability to set up camps is unique among all the generals he has ever seen!

Even the camp of the Dangshan army led by Meng Tian was not as tight as Zhang Han...

But there is a problem.

Zhang Han's army is the army sent by the imperial court to conquer Chen County. It should take the initiative. Even if it is to set up camp, it should also use simple firewood camp method, digging camp method, muzha camp method and other simple camp methods to set up camp in order to move the camp and maintain the soldiers.

High fighting spirit!

However, the method of building a city camp used by Zhang Han's army was clearly a high-camp stronghold used by a passive defensive army. No matter how you look at it, it looks like he wants to fight a protracted war with his red army.

It should be noted that many of the fortifications built by the city-building camp method are semi-permanent fortifications. Many important military towns and Xiongguan border cities in history were expanded on the basis of the camps built by the city-building camp method.

This is unreasonable...

Chen Sheng was thinking in his mind, patted Da Mao's broad back and said softly: "Smelly thing, send me back to camp!"

This guy's body is getting bigger and bigger, as if it's entering secondary growth. In just two or three months, it has expanded several times like a balloon.

Now its wingspan has exceeded two feet, and it is a head taller than an ordinary man when standing on the ground. With one dive, it can directly grab a cow and fly it up to a height of seven or eight feet before throwing it down and falling to death!

"Gu Gu Gu Gu..."

The big-haired stalker raised his head and screamed again and again, just like a talkative monster: You are the one who stinks, you are the one who stinks...

Chen Sheng laughed "haha", stood up and slapped the eagle's head angrily: "Don't go too far, let alone harm the livestock of the surrounding farmers. If you can find prey, just look for it. If you can't find it, come back to me. I don't have to worry about you."

food……"

Da Mao struggled hard to avoid his clutches: "Gu Gu Gu Gu... (Who are you looking down on? Will this king not be able to find prey?)"

Fifty miles of mountains and rivers were crossed in the fight between one person and one eagle.

Soon, the camp of the Red Army appeared in front of Chen Sheng's eyes.

Looking around, the square barracks of the Red Army are equally vast and endless, as far as the eye can see!

However, compared with Zhang Han's army's high-level stronghold with hundreds of steps and one floor, thousands of trenches, the red army's camp is relatively strict, but it only uses a simple firewood camp method to set up camp, and there are only a few war buildings in the stronghold.

, there are no more fortifications.

Compared with Zhang Han's army, the Red Army is more like a newcomer...

Chen Sheng drove Da Mao to fly around the red-coated army camp. After taking all the terrain, water sources, and troop allocation of each camp into his mind, he directed Da Mao to fly back to the commander's tent, which was heavily surrounded, and jumped down.

.

"I am Chen Sheng of Chen County!"

He was still high in the air, and his voice still echoed around the commander's tent.

Although this is a bit of a trick, it is still more respectable than being shot out of a hedgehog by your own subordinates.

As soon as the sound came out, the two regiments of soldiers guarding the commander's tent stopped their work and rushed toward the commander's tent like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea.

Chen Sheng slowly landed in front of the commander's tent. Tens of thousands of red-coated soldiers from all directions faced him, clasping their fists and bending down: "Greetings, General!"

The uniform and fanatical shouts, like the passage of a hurricane, quickly spread throughout the entire Chinese army camp.

At this moment, all the fifty thousand soldiers of the Chinese army knew...that their general had returned to camp!

The numb eyes were ignited with flames again, the exhausted bodies were once again filled with strength, and even the air seemed to be filled with a fiery breath.

There are always some people whose name is just like a tiger and wolf medicine!

Can cure serious illness!

Chen Sheng pressed his sword, his back as straight as a javelin: "Get up!"

Thousands of red-coated soldiers stood up straight and looked at Chen Sheng with burning eyes.

Chen Sheng glanced at the airtight, dark crowd with an expressionless face, glanced at the anxious and expectant eyes, nodded slightly, and said loudly: "Although I am at the rear, I know that you are all fighting bravely.

Not only do I know it, but all the folks at home also know it!"

"A temporary offensive failure is not a big deal, let alone a fault."

"Now that I'm back!"

"Then no one can stand in front of my Red Army!"

"Tu Sui can't do it, Meng Tian can't do it... Zhang Han can't do it either!"

"Please disperse, practice with peace of mind, and wait for military orders!"

"Come here, raise my flag and beat the drum to gather the generals!"

He waved his hand, turned around, and strode into the handsome tent!

Thousands of red-coated troops passed outside the tent, clasping their fists and shouting in unison: "I will obey the general's order!"

They left quickly with excitement, wanting to tell their friends in the army about Chen Sheng's return, but they met more brothers Pao Ze who rushed towards the Chinese army. Wherever they went, they only heard the chief officers of each battalion.

The shouts of Ying Nai's soldiers rushing towards the central army came one after another!

The fiery aura quickly spread throughout the entire red army camp like a prairie fire!

On that day, none of Zhang Hanjun's scouts who went to the vicinity of the Red Army Camp to spy on the military situation survived...

…

Half an hour later.

Six division commanders of the Red Army, thirty regimental commanders plus marching commander Fan Zeng, a total of thirty-seven generals, gathered in the commander's tent.

The thirty-seven generals were seated in two rows on the left and right, with Chen Shou on the left and Fan Zeng on the right.

Chen Sheng glanced around and saw that except for Li Xin, there was no one with an empty face in the tent, even if it was the regiment level of the third, fourth, fifth, sixth and fourth divisions that were newly formed during the previous expansion of the army.

The generals are also the best among the first batch of students of the Military Department of Jixia Academy.

These outstanding men were originally the battalion commanders of the first and second divisions. This expansion of the army took advantage of Chen Sheng's "non-Jixia Academy Military Section members are not allowed to serve as military officers at the battalion and regiment level" general promotion rules.

Upgrade one level.

As for the vacated military officer position at the battalion level, it will be filled by the remaining veterans from the first phase and the outstanding ones from the second phase.

So far, this rule is generally fair except for being unfair to demoted generals.

To advance to the battalion level, low-level soldiers must first accumulate merit to the company level, which takes a long time.

Nowadays, the military department of Jixia Academy has expanded its enrollment. Basically, the best platoon-level officers can get the opportunity to be recommended for admission to Jixia Academy. Even during wartime, the enrollment and teaching work of Jixia Academy has always been

It didn't stop. After these people graduated from Jixia Academy, they became company-level reserves in the army, which did not affect their subsequent command and promotion at all.

As for those demoted generals who were excluded from this promotion rule, such as those former generals under Li Xin, the two-five-hundred-master, and the five-hundred-master, Chen Sheng also developed his own placement method: first be demoted half a level to serve as deputy.

, wait until the truce comes and go to Jixia Academy to complete further studies, and then choose an opportunity to become a full-time official.

For example, General Qu will serve as deputy commander of the regiment, director of the 2500 and deputy battalion commander, director of the 500 and deputy company...

Chen Sheng has no prejudice against these demoted generals. To put it crudely, they all work for him. He does not say that he can treat everyone equally, but at least he will not suppress anyone from being promoted.

He just doesn't allow a second voice, a second thought, a second method of warfare within the Red Army!

He knows that any mature organization cannot be without factions within it, which is contrary to common sense and unhealthy.

But he hopes to use Jixia Academy as a thread to turn the Red Army into a monolithic entity. In the future, no matter who leads the troops or who is the general, they will not be able to shake the foundation of his Red Army!

As long as the Red Army's fundamentals can be stable, his fundamentals will be as stable as Mount Tai. No matter how the situation in Kyushu changes in the future, he will be able to cope with all changes without changing anything!

"Fan Sima, please tell me carefully about the progress of the battle."

After Chen Sheng glanced around, he directly spoke.

It stands to reason that he asked Chen Shou about the progress of the battle. After all, when he was not in the army, Chen Shou took charge of the overall situation on his behalf. The letters he sent to control the army to fight against Zhang Han's army were all passed on to Chen Shou. The daily routine of the other generals

Battle reports are also submitted to Chen Shou. No one knows the progress of the battle better than him.

It was precisely because of this that he had to directly mention Fan Zeng's name... The hierarchy in the army is strict, and the superiors follow the subordinates. When Chen Shou answered his questions in front of so many generals, he must salute him.

He is afraid of being struck by lightning!

As soon as he opened his mouth, all the generals in the tent knew what he was thinking, and they all looked at Chen Shou with ridicule.

"Chi..."

Someone laughed secretly.
