Zhu Gaojie is a conceited person. His conceitedness is not domineering, but it can often bring great humiliation to his enemies.
For example, he now only uses half of the troops in Shandong Province to fight against the King of Han who has been accumulating strength in Shandong for many years. He has the power and strength to mobilize troops from other provinces, but he feels that if he wants to fight against the King of Han and has to mobilize troops from other provinces, then
It would be too embarrassing.
Half the province's troops versus half the province's troops, this battle was fought fairly.
Zhu Gaojie didn't think that his move seemed too big. He never thought that he would lose.
…
Zhu Gaojie looked at the map and pondered: "Let the Dezhou left guard be transferred to Hengtai County, and the Pingshan guard be stationed at the Changshan defense line. Let the Dezhou left guard be in the front and the Pingshan guard be in the rear."
Hengtai County is already at the forefront of the military, and is the area where the King of Han has the largest number of troops. Once Hengtai is lost, they can directly advance in and capture Le'an, the King of Han's home base.
"Isn't your prince's move a bit too risky?"
Su Wen served as Zhu Gaojie's deputy general. He was one of the very few who followed Zhu Gaojie to Shandong. After several battles with King Qi, the then dandy young master became much calmer and began to show his demeanor as a general.
He has been with King Qi for so long, and his vision has become more and more sharp: "The Dezhou Zuowei was just established in June of the fifth year of Yongle. This army has not experienced the temper of the war and is still too young. Let the Dezhou Zuowei
Xu's defense was okay, but asking him to go to Hengtai County was very abrupt. Once our army garrisoned in Hengtai County, the King of Han would definitely not agree, and a bloody battle would inevitably break out. This was the battle that would determine the direction of the war, and it would affect the entire Shandong Province.
In the core area of the war, I boldly suggest that the more elite Hirayama guard be placed in the forward position and the Texas left guard be in the rear. The tasks of the two guards should be reversed."
I have to say that Su Qing is really a real person, and Jin Rong really dared to scold him when he asked him to scold him.
…
Everyone was silent.
Zhu Gaojie pointed to the location of Hengtai County on the map and said, "Look, where is this?"
Su Qing said calmly: "Su is a scholar and does not understand military affairs. I have stated this several times. However, I do not agree with General Jin's opinion."
Zhu Gaojie showed a smile: "That's right, children can be taught."
Like the Jining Guards who fought bloody battles in Pu Tai, the imperial troops in Lijin and Tianzhen also received the same order. Although they were puzzled, they finally chose to believe King Qi and withdrew their troops tactically from the anxious front line.
Bring the army back to the rear.
But he can't control that much now. The war has reached this point, and the soldiers are fighting to the death with the rebels, sacrificing their lives and blood, just to defend Putai County in accordance with the orders from above.
Su Qing stood up proudly and shouted at Jin Rong: "I said you are a stupid dog. Is there a problem? Maybe I didn't mention my name and you pretended not to hear, right? OK, then I'll repeat it again,
You, yes, that’s you, General Jin Rongjin, the commander-in-chief of Shandong, you are just a stupid dog!"
Su Wen was a little confused: "Hengtai County, is there any problem with this?"
Su Qing curled her lips and cursed secretly: "What a stupid dog. How could I sit at the same table with such a stupid dog?"
If any other general had given such an order, he would not have taken the lead. However, King Qi is not an ordinary general. Currently, King Qi is participating in the battle, and the winning rate is 100%. If he wins every battle, he may not be allowed to do this.
What are the tactics or layout for withdrawing troops later?
Therefore, the King of Han and the top leaders of the rebels held an emergency meeting at the Le'an City Council Hall to discuss countermeasures for the imperial army.
King Qi, who is the military god of the world and a famous general who fought side by side with His Majesty in Mobei, how could such a person give such a foolish order?
Jin Rong suppressed his blush and couldn't say the words.
"Okay, then look at it." Zhu Gaojie's finger traced along the location of Hengtai County and drew a curve, "Hengtai, Changshan, Tianzhen, Putai, Lijin, these five points,
In addition to the 3,000 Jinan Guards stationed in Zichuan, if we can connect these six points into a line, how do you think we will fight the following battle?"
"Don't even think about it, King Qi must have been frightened by us!"
The commander of the Jining Guard was not afraid of disobeying military orders, but if it was King Qi's order, this made him hesitate.
Su Wen said subconsciously: "The six routes set off and each formed their own camp, just like the tidal waves coming to the coast, one after another. Hanwang's old camp Le'an could not stop such a tide, and had to abandon Qingzhou and Jinan.
We must retreat to Le'an and remain stationary to deal with our army's six-point line tactics. But if this is the case, all the arrangements made by the King of Han will be scrapped and he will be forced to fight a decisive battle to defend the city."
Su Wen said humbly: "The prince has trained me well. I have fought so many battles with the prince. Even a pig can command the piglets to go to the pig pen."
It is said that the first emperor of Qin sent Xu Fu to the east to search for the elixir of immortality, but he never returned. This terrace was called "Qin Tai" in the world, and it was also called "Putai" because of the bulrushes all around it, so Putai County got its name.
Su Qing looked around at everyone calmly: "Has anyone here seen King Qi himself and talked with him face to face?"
At the beginning, no one thought they could hold Po Tai. How could Jining Guard's new army of 5,000 men withstand the rebels' domineering arrogance? But they defended this place with their passion. If the troops were to be withdrawn now, the commander of the Jining Guard would feel sorry for the brothers who died in the battle to defend the city. He would rather not be an official and let the soldiers who sleep on the green mountains at night rest in peace.
The commander of the Jining Guard said decisively: "Fuck you, King Qi knows how to fight. How could he give such an order? Even I can see how important the front from Putai to Lijin is. How can King Qi
can not tell?"
Although it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders, the commander of the Jining Guards had such a arrogant attitude. Even if they defended Putai County and drove back or even wiped out the enemy, based on his disobedience, the first one after the war was
If you ask him to accuse him, he may be dismissed from office or beheaded to establish his authority.
After much hesitation, the commander of the Jining Guard gritted his teeth and took the handwritten letter from King Qi, and said fiercely to the herald: "I accept this order. The Jining Guard will withdraw from Pu Tai at the designated time. I hope King Qi will
, don’t let the blood of the Jining Guards be spilled on the podium in vain!”
Zhu Gaojie immediately ordered: "Send orders to all the guard posts on the front line, except Zichuan, which must not be released to the King of Han and must be defended to the death. All the troops stationed at the remaining five points must retreat while fighting, pretending that our army is exhausted and defeated by the rebels."
Military posture."
King Qi is obviously a young man, but he talks like a veteran who has gone through many vicissitudes of life. However, to get King Qi's approval, it would take a lot of effort for anyone else.
…
"But, how should we form these six points?" Su Wen asked again, "Among the six points mentioned by the prince, except for Zichuan, which has been occupied by our army in a preemptive attack, the remaining five
The points are either in the hands of the King of Han, or they are engaged in a fierce battle with the King of Han, and it is impossible to organize an effective line of defense. If we can capture these six points, the tide tactics will have no meaning, because if we can capture them
These six points can only explain one problem, that is, the rebels of the King of Han have been defeated by us. At this time, we don't need the tide tactics at all, and we can just drive straight into Jihuo Le'an City."
Su Wen immediately said: "My lord, do you mean that it is no longer important whether the Texas Left Guard can win and repel the rebels in Hengtai County?"
At the end of the sentence, he almost roared in a roaring voice.
Although Su Qing's voice was not loud, Jin Rong still heard it. He pointed at Su Qing's nose angrily and cursed: "If you have the guts, just say it again, louder, don't keep mumbling there!"
Who do you think you are when you say bad things about people behind their backs!"
The commander of the Jining Guard did not give up and opened the handwritten letter from Prince Qi. As expected, he finally saw the gold seal of Prince Qi's palace as a security measure, which stated that the Jining Guard should withdraw to Qidong.
The messenger said expressionlessly: "King Qi's handwriting is here. It's up to you to believe it or not. I'm only responsible for delivering the order."
Unexpectedly, the herald took out a document and handed it to the commander of the Jining Guard: "This is a handwritten letter from King Qi. It is certified by the gold seal of Prince Qi's palace. This is an order personally issued by King Qi for the Jining Guard to withdraw from Pu."
Tai, and the garrison stationed at Lijin will join forces at Qidong."
Su Qing clicked her tongue and said: "General Jin, do you feel a little itchy in your head? Damn it, General Jin is going to have a brain, right? I really feel sorry for General Jin's parents. They gave birth to a child named Jin Rong. How many years ago?"
It’s not a big problem that this head started to develop when he was ten years old. The hard work of the day after tomorrow is better than the innate talent. As long as General Jin works harder, he still has a chance to become a normal person."
For a time, the imperial army was completely empty on the front line of the battle with the Han rebels. The rebels, who were still struggling at first, suddenly found that the battle was much easier. They took all the front line defenses into their arms and greedily advanced gradually to the west.
.
Jin Rong was a little impatient: "Who doesn't know how to talk nonsense? Can you say something practical?"
The Jining Guards were not convinced. Although they were just established in Yongle Dynasty, this young army was full of energy and wanted to fight to the death against the rebels of the King of Han.
The commander of the Jining Guard scolded, "Now you tell me to withdraw my troops? Has the blood of the soldiers been shed in vain? Who the hell gave the order to withdraw? He has to withdraw himself. From top to bottom, there is no one who is afraid of the soldiers of the Jining Guard."
Damn it, after the soldiers have finished fighting, let hundreds of families come forward. After the officers have finished fighting, let me, the commander, wield a long sword to fight the enemy. If you really want us to withdraw, you can bring King Qi's handwriting.
, before seeing the handwriting of King Qi, the Jining Guards will not give up Putai County to the King of Han!"
"But I think what you just said is not accurate enough."
He didn't dare to scold him anymore. He could only scold him one sentence. Su Qing could scold him ten times if he scolded him one time. This scolding was too costly.
The grass is luxuriant. The soldiers of Jining Guard have been guarding here for three days and three nights. The rebels of the Han Dynasty are attacking Putai County crazily. They seem to have the momentum of not giving up until they capture Putai. The purpose is to defeat the imperial troops and horses.
Force back and seize advantageous terrain.
"Okay, okay, okay."
There were more than 5,000 Jining guards, and after three days of defense, the remaining troops were only over 2,000. However, the Han king's rebels were also numb, and the offensive became more and more decadent. The victory or defeat was still between Zhongbo.
Jin Rong held his breath and asked, "If you think what I said is nonsense, how dare you ask Mr. Su for his advice?"
In the temporary headquarters set up in Putai County Yamen, the commander of Jining Guards became angry, "I have laid the corpses of three thousand brothers on this Putai. Even if we fight until only one person is left, we still have to kill the rebels of the King of Han."
You fight to the death, you want me to withdraw my troops now? Who gave the order, I will kill him!"
Zhu Gaojie nodded and said, "Mobilize all the troops that can be mobilized to these six points. Even if Hengtai County guarded by Dezhou Zuowei is taken by the Han Dynasty, we still have ten thousand tactics to deal with it. The tide is pervasive.
.Soldiers have no constant momentum, and water has no constant shape. The way to use soldiers should be like this. The most important thing is to adapt to changes. The army should be water, not stone, do you understand?"
Not long after arriving at the battlefield, even Hengtai, Changshan's Dezhou left guard, and Pingshan guard, who had just met the Han rebels, retreated one after another and gave up their positions.
"Why do you have to fight hard?" Zhu Gaojie said with a mysterious smile, "What do you think about stealing five cities from him?"
Su Wen was shocked: "Steal?!"
Zhu Gaojie smiled and said: "This metaphor is inappropriate. In my eyes, this group of young officers including you are not piglets, but the future generals of the Ming Dynasty. Your task is not to help the pigsty, but
It is to overturn the blue sky and let the flag of Ming Dynasty fly across the world."
In terms of literary fighting, Su Qing is really beyond the reach of Jin Rong. Whether it is implicit sarcasm or explicit scolding, Mr. Su's knowledge content and vocabulary reserve are far better than Jin Rong. He curses people one after another, and other
The description was vivid and interesting, and even some people present couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Jin Rong's intracranial high pressure exploded, and he spoke with the quintessence of Chinese culture: "Su Qing, I'll fuck you! Come out and challenge me!"
"What, tell me to withdraw my troops?!"
Su Wen was a little flattered and could not say a word for a long time.
"Yes, what you said is exactly what I thought. Six points form a line. Tide tactics are ever-changing when they move, but they are solid when they are still. You can fight or defend or attack or retreat or go or go. If the King of Han insists on defending, he will be riddled with holes.
, we can only retreat to Le'an City."
Although they regard King Qi as their mortal enemy every day, but returning to reality, King Qi does not take these people present to heart at all, and no one has the chance to face King Qi face to face.
The commander of the capital, Jin Rong, was high-spirited and confident, "Our army is so brave, and King Qi is just a man with a false reputation. How dare he bark in front of our army's formation? Our army only made a slight move, and King Qi was frightened to death."
Abandon your armor and retreat in defeat!"
Zhu Gaojie nodded slightly: "Yes, you do have the demeanor of a general now. The bravery of an ordinary man can only show his ability for a moment. A long-term vision and accurate judgment are the sharp edges of a general."
"Every inch of the country is worth an inch of blood. Outside the city wall of Putai County, the bones of the brothers who followed me in the war were not yet cold. Their corpses were casually abandoned on the weeds and trampled by the enemy's horse hooves. Their blood soaked the ground and turned the brown color
The ancient city walls are dyed red, and even heavy downpours cannot wash them away!”
I spoke softly just now, now I'm scolding you loudly, do you hear me?
This also made him somewhat suspicious of life. He would rather believe that Jinan City has fallen and King Qi is being captured than that this letter is true.
Putai County, formerly Shiwo County in the Han Dynasty, was established as Shiwo County during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It was changed to Yanting County during the Xinman Dynasty, and later renamed, and changed to Putai County in the Sui Dynasty.
The King of Han, who was commanding the army in Le'an, was stunned by this move. He was a little confused and couldn't understand why King Qi became more and more cowardly. This was not like King Qi's style of killing embryos.
"I have seen."
The King of Han, who had been silent until now, raised his hand and said, "I think there is no one here who knows King Qi better than me. If you have no opinions to say, then listen to my opinion on King Qi."
Su Qing bowed and cupped his hands and said: "Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
