The chaos caused by the deserters did not last long, and calm soon returned.
On the second day, the whole army gathered.
Diao Jun saw with his own eyes more than a dozen corpses hanging in front of the camp, including the leader, Uncle Lian.
He couldn't help but tremble, partly because he felt pity for these deserters who were suffering from the same disease, and partly because he was afraid of the cruelty of military law.
"Hey!" As he looked at the corpse and trembled secretly, the soldier named Cen turned around and winked at him, "I saved you, remember to follow my command in the future!"
Although he did save himself, Diao Jun didn't feel grateful and actually didn't like this man very much.
Every move he makes is in Jia Zhengjin's eyes.
At this moment, Jia Zhengjin, who was the Zhechong Colonel Yu Cheng, reprimanded the deserters in front of all the soldiers, and used these "military discipline violators" who resisted during the escape and were eventually killed as an example to warn all the soldiers on the scene about the consequences of deserters.
After that, the desertion incident passed lightly, and the army set off again, because they had to launch a surprise attack before Bashui County could react.
After what happened last night, Diao Jun finally gave up the idea of escape.
He finally understood that this disaster was inevitable.
This is probably the reason why Brother Jia gave him a magic weapon for self-defense.
Even if it is God's will, we can only face it.
I just don't know if I can go back alive to meet Brother Shao and Xi'er.
Along the way, the soldier named Cen was very active and quickly became involved with the soldiers of the same team.
He also successfully became the leader of this team. Even several captains in the team thought that he was very good and they would have a greater chance of surviving under his command.
Diao Jun refused at first, but in the end he went with the flow and accepted the result.
The person who became the leader of the team was called Cen Pei, and everyone liked to call him Pei Geer.
Speaking of which, Cen Pei is really not simple.
He has good martial arts skills and no one in the team can beat him.
According to his own words, even the lieutenant beside General Zhe Chong may not be his opponent.
I don’t know if he is arrogant or if he really has that ability.
However, it is true that Cen Pei is really good, and everyone in the team is convinced by him. The most important thing is that he handles the differences among the team members very reasonably. Regardless of his popularity, he quickly established his prestige and vaguely formed a small group.
During the march, when setting up camp to rest, or during drills, Cen Pei would also teach the members of the team in detail, explaining to them some practical and simple gun skills. Let them understand how to use guns with great power, how to defend against enemy attacks, etc.
The army finally arrived in Gaoguo, thirty miles away from Bashui County.
"Captain, Bashui County has closed the city gates and entered a defensive posture." Nuwa pointed at the satellite surveillance screen in the general's camp and said, "At the same time, an army from each of Yuanzhou and Miao County arrived in advance.
, stationed in two directions in the south, forming a corner with Bashui County."
"As expected, the detailed work in Qi State has passed on our updates in advance!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "It seems that it will not be easy to defeat Bashui County!"
"There are about 25,000 defenders in Bashui County, 10,000 reinforcements from Yuanzhou, and 5,000 reinforcements from Miao County, totaling 40,000 Gao Kingdom troops. The total population of Bashui County is more than 300,000. It is really an emergency.
, we can raise an army of 100,000 by temporary recruitment." Nuwa said from the side, "The total number of our troops is only 30,000, and half of them are forced levies, with low morale and insufficient combat power. In addition, they have traveled a long distance and are very tired.
.It is extremely difficult to conquer Bashui County!"
"Do you really think I will stupidly attack the city?" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "Warriors are all about strategy. Unless the troops have an absolute advantage, they will use crushing tactics to push forward."
"What are your plans, Captain?"
"List the enemy's army distribution, unit data and some specific data. I want to analyze it based on the data!"
"Receive the command!" Nuwa took action immediately, quickly mobilized the data, and displayed a virtual picture in front of Jia Zhengjin.
It is good to have satellite monitoring. You can clearly grasp the enemy's dynamics and all intelligence. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger.
Of course, the opponent has the advantage in terms of overall military strength. After all, they are at home, and they also received intelligence in advance and transferred reinforcements from Yuanzhou and Miao County.
But after reading the list, Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but laugh.
Not to mention the Gao Kingdom defenders hiding in the city, among the two supporting armies, the 10,000 troops from Yuanzhou were stationed in the forest five miles away from Bashui County; the 5,000 troops from Miao County were stationed by the river.
superior.
Their location looks good, and they are at arm's length with the city, so they can help each other.
But it was clearly visible to Jia Zhengjin’s satellite and there was nowhere to hide.
"This forest is lush with vegetation. It's a good place to hide. Without satellite monitoring, you wouldn't have noticed it at all!" Jia Zhengjin closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened his eyes. "Unfortunately, the shortcomings are too obvious. If you just set a fire, this
The entire army of ten thousand people was wiped out!"
"Set fire?" Nuwa thought for a moment, "What a good idea! But the casualty ratio will be very high."
"People will die in war," Jia Zhengjin said calmly. "In this world, countries are fighting against each other, and so many people die every day. I am now the general Zhechong of Qi State, and I need to win this war on his behalf. One general will succeed.
It is inevitable that all bones will wither! Moreover, from our standpoint, there is no need to sympathize with humans in other worlds. Even if the people in the Four Heavens Palace are in charge of this world, they still don't care about this kind of thing, let alone us?"
"That's true!"
"Who is better to send here? It must be someone you can trust to ensure that the fire attack can be successful!" Jia Zhengjin lowered his head and thought, "Of the twelve lieutenants around Yu Cheng, the most trustworthy and capable one is Zou Yan, right? This task seems to be the only one
He can take action!"
"Actually, I can do it too," Nuwa said. "Just send a fire and it can make the whole forest burn."
Jia Zhengjin turned to look at her after hearing this, and then shook his head: "That's boring! I now understand the situation of generals leading troops in ancient times. Doesn't your intervention in this way amount to cheating? Didn't I say that, unless it is necessary, it is necessary
Only when the situation is reversed will you and Yu Wanniang be asked to intervene. The fire plan is still left to Zou Yan to execute!"
"What about the other support soldier?"
"It's just five thousand troops, which is not too much." Jia Zhengjin thought for a moment and smiled slightly, "While letting Zou Yan lead people to burn Yuanzhou's reinforcements, I directly led the army to rush over, instead of attacking Bashui County, and surrounded
Miao County reinforcements."
"What do you mean?" Nuwa didn't understand.
"Think about it!" Jia Zhengjin said, "They were originally three waves of armies that formed the horns of each other and rushed to support each other, right?"
"yes!"
"Then I set fire to the Yuanzhou reinforcements outside the city first. What will happen to the other side?"
"Definitely rescue."
"That's right! Even if the defenders in the city don't come out to rescue them, they must take action when I surround the Miao County reinforcements. If both reinforcements are repelled before their eyes, the morale of Bashui County will be reduced to the limit, and the generals who defend the city will not
I am willing to see this situation. The only thing you can do is come out and stop me!"
"But by sending troops, do you abandon your own advantages?" Nuwa's eyes lit up, and she looked at the advantage of defending the city. We may not lose in the field battle. With just one sentence, we can annihilate the enemy, and Bashui County will be at our fingertips!"
