Chapter 385: Goodbye brothers, Teng Wu discusses war
"Bai Chuan? I think you are somewhat familiar. Have we met before?" Shen Tang looked at the man in front of him and asked.
Bai Chuan chuckled, "Sir, I was one of the victims who stayed outside Shanyin City. Later, I was transferred to Anye Pavilion by Lord Lu Feng. Not long ago, because of the importance of Xijing Road, Lord Lu Feng sent me here. Already."
"Oh!" Shen Tang nodded. In addition to the gold and jade tokens in Shen Tang's hands and the silver and jade tokens in Lu Feng's hands, the Dark Night Pavilion has silver, bronze, and iron levels below it! When the Dark Night Pavilion was first established, Some of the core people were selected from among the old brothers, and it is not surprising that Bai Chuan can now become the Silver Commander.
"Where are Cheng Yuhu and the others now?" Shen Tang asked.
"After receiving the message from your lord before, I passed the news to General Cheng and General Teng Wu. Two days ago, they had arrived at Jinping Mountain on the side of Tong Town! If your lord is in need, it only takes half an hour for them to arrive. Then you can come." Bai Chuan heard the sound and said.
"Okay, you go immediately to deliver the message to them and ask them to come here to see me!"
The shopkeeper took the order and left!
Sure enough, less than half an hour later, there was the sound of heavy footsteps outside the door.
"Crunch!"
The door is opened!
"grown ups!"
"Master!"
Cheng Yuhu and Teng Wu appeared in front of Shen Tang! After Bai Chuan sent the two to him, he left and went to the hall to guard.
Seeing these two people prostrating themselves in front of him, Shen Tang's face was also full of smiles! This was the initial power he had after coming to this world, and it was also one of the most trustworthy people.
"Get up quickly!"
Shen Tang stepped forward and helped the two of them up one by one.
"Not bad!" Shen Tang looked at the two people. First was Cheng Yuhu. Although his body shape and appearance had not changed, his temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes!
Before following Shen Tang, although the title was fierce, he was just a leader among the frontier troops. However, in this year, he became the commander-in-chief of a large army, and he did not even know how to fight. How many times. Therefore, the evil spirit on his body was extremely strong, which added a bit of domineering and momentum.
As for Teng Wu, the change has been even greater. His formerly thin figure has now turned into a heroic man! His eyes show a bit of shrewdness from time to time, and he is obviously a wise general.
The original decision was indeed correct. If they had not been sent to the north, not only would there not be the current army, but the two of them would not have been trained.
Moreover, these two people are brave and wise, and they will surely bring greater surprises to themselves in the future.
"How is it? How do you feel after this year?" Shen Tang asked with a smile as he pulled the two of them to sit down.
Cheng Yuhu chuckled and said, "Refreshingly, it's a good thing that I am following your Majesty. Otherwise, I, Cheng Yuhu, would never be like this. I think back then, the Jin Army, which we feared like a tiger, is now under our play. This kind of This feeling is far beyond what you can experience among the border troops. Moreover, there is a court above the border troops, and the court has its plans. However, we only need to be responsible to the adults, and we don’t need to worry about those fancy thoughts!"
Nodding, Shen Tang turned to Teng Wu, "How do you feel, kid?"
Teng Wu thought for a moment, and then slowly said to Shen Tang, "Master, our strength has greatly increased this year. Based on the original more than a thousand brothers, the team has gradually expanded to 20,000 people. Of these 20,000 people, some are in exile. Some of the common people were rebels who were defeated by the Jin people. However, because we have more than a thousand brothers as our foundation, Brother Yuhu and I have unparalleled control over this team."
"In order to maintain combat effectiveness, after discussing with Brother Yuhu, I adopted part of the method of backing the Wei Army. That is, at this stage, we only control the number of troops to 20,000 people. Unless necessary, we will not carry out troops for the time being. Expansion or supplementation. The reason for this is, first of all, to ensure our combat effectiveness."
"There are not many rebels in the North. With our strength, it is easy to gather some rebels. However, if too many people are mixed in, the overall combat effectiveness will be drastically reduced."
"Secondly, in addition to the help of Dark Night Pavilion, we also formed a team of our own to collect intelligence. However, the method is different from Dark Night Pavilion. For example, at first we traveled and developed in Henan Prefecture, and when we left At that time, we left a squad of 100 people. This squad would collect information about the surrounding battles and guard our original station. Once we needed to go to Henan Prefecture, we could go there directly without any supplies. Because everything will be prepared there.”
"So, our team was established entirely for our battles. However, so far, we have only established three. Two of them are in Henan Prefecture, and the other one was fighting in Dongping Prefecture not long ago. It was built after that.”
Shen Tang secretly nodded. With such a small team, Teng Wu and his army would save a lot of trouble during the expedition.
"In addition, here are some views on the Jin Army." Teng Wu continued, "Although in our battles with the Jin soldiers, we mostly won more than lost. However, I don't think this means that the Jin soldiers are weak. It's because we are stronger. After a year of fighting, if we face the ordinary army of the Song Dynasty, we are confident that we can fight against an army that is more than twice as large, and we have a good chance of winning."
"When confronting the Jin soldiers, we are in the dark and the Jin soldiers are in the light. In this way, it is natural for us to win."
"What's more, most of the Jin soldiers we fought were ordinary soldiers. Just like the last battle with the defenders of Daming Mansion in Dongping Mansion, with the same military strength, we had almost no power to fight back. If it weren't for Song Kai With help from Sir and others, we will definitely lose this battle!"
Listening to Teng Wu's words, Shen Tang suddenly realized that he had underestimated Teng Wu. He was definitely not a small general, but a handsome man. He had an incomparable understanding of his own strength and the strength of his enemies. He has a clear understanding and a clear plan for the development of his team. If such a person is used well, he can definitely bring greater surprises to him.
Thinking of this, Shen Tang couldn't help but feel a bit like a test, "Teng Wu, based on your current views, how do you think our Song Dynasty should treat the current Jin Kingdom?"
Cheng Yuhu on the side heard Shen Tang's question and responded without hesitation, "It goes without saying that we must kill as many of their living forces as possible. After all, the hatred between us and the Kingdom of Jin is huge."
