When the first smoke ignited on the grain road, he knew that the imperial edict was correct.
Grain roads are usually harassed, and it is impossible for a small group of cavalry to ignite the smoke.
At the beginning, he thought it was redundant when the imperial court asked the military depot to prepare for smoke. He did not expect... No, it should be said that the imperial court had already prepared for this day at the beginning of the war.
All the orders have been issued. Zhongqian no longer needs to go to any military station to direct the retreat. He only needs to wait at the assembly area. After all the soldiers have withdrawn, he will form the soldiers at the military station and actually go into battle.
At this time, Zhong Di still didn't understand, and he didn't understand why the war situation suddenly became like this... The food road leading to Gao Zunyu's Ministry was abandoned, so what should Gao Zunyu's Ministry do?
Zhongcun is not so narrow-minded as to worry about his younger brother Zhongyi. Since he is a general, no one can escape his relatives who died in battle.
But that’s 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers!
"Reporting to the commander, all military stations must be assembled in place!"
"How much is the loss?"
"There were supposed to be 5,400 people, but actually there were 4,873!"
Alas... the new army without chariots, even if it was all cavalry, would still be difficult to fight against the Xixia people.
Due to their responsibilities, the team guarding the grain road was equipped with all cavalry, and their cavalry and shooting abilities were relatively outstanding. However, if they really wanted to attack the Xixia cavalry, they would still be unable to compare.
"What happened to each of them?"
"Commander, the Xixia people are not harassing you! The general asked all the captains and found that the number of cavalry encountered at each military station was no less than 2,000. In other words, there were at least 40,000 Xixia cavalry on the entire grain road...
…”
"Commander, um... um, the last general compiled the intelligence from each military station. After attacking the military station, the Xixia cavalry all formed a team and went north. In other words, the Xixia people have cut off the connection between Gao Zunyu's department and the imperial court...~"
The attendant wanted to say: The Fourth Young Master is in danger. He looked at the lieutenants in the headquarters, but finally did not speak.
The commander should know better.
What is clear about the diagnosis? Nothing is clear! Before that, he was still an auxiliary military commander. From now on, according to the imperial edict, he has become the general of the combat team. But what kind of battle can he do?
Got it!
"Seed diagnosis and auscultation..."
The doctor was feeling depressed when suddenly one of the captains came out...
"Ling Zhongjian was appointed as the guerrilla general of Hengshan Road. He led the station's 5,000 permanent cavalry to carry out guerrilla operations on Hengshan Road and carried out the combat mission of harassing the Xixia camps..."
Before the clinician could react, the decree had already been announced. The clinician looked blankly at the captain, watching him approach him...~
"Commander, the last general Shi Deyi has been appointed as the Imperial City Secretary. From today on, he will obey the orders of the general. This is a secret decree of the imperial court. The last general has no right to read it out. Please ask for the order..."
The doctor continued to be stunned until he had a copy of the imperial edict that the captain held up with both hands.
The diagnosis was almost subconscious, mechanically opening the imperial edict... It was said to be an imperial edict, but it was longer than an ordinary memorial.
So that's what happened! Zhongcian finally understood. He understood that his younger brother told him that he would be the main force in the battle, he understood why the court gave up the food route, and he understood that his elder brother did not react at all to his younger brother's predicament!
At this time, Zhongcun finally understood the entire layout of the imperial court.
…
"I only found out about the implantation diagnosis now. I wonder if this kind of diagnosis is unpleasant?"
The front line is basically proceeding as set. Zhao Xi is in a somewhat relaxed mood and is in the mood to chat after discussing matters.
"Whether he has any complaints or not, he must hand in answers to the imperial court's combat missions!"
Being able to participate in the formulation of such a big plan was a feeling that Zhang Fangping had never experienced before. It was really a bit crazy.
"The official family, the veteran passed through the northwest, and the three kinds of Zhong family... Oh, Zhong Yi was still a baby at that time."
"Zhong Shiheng allowed the Zhong family to transition from literature to martial arts. In the second generation, Zhong's exegesis, Zhong'e, Zhong's diagnosis, and Zhong Yi all became great talents."
"The veteran is familiar with seed diagnosis and has an honest nature. He is not as aggressive as the breeders and is quite lawful. Such a general is most suitable for carrying out cavalry raids. He is not greedy for merit, knows how to advance and retreat, and cherishes his soldiers!"
Although Han Qi did not have any outstanding achievements in his expedition to the northwest, he still has a say among the entire cabinet ministers when it comes to evaluating the family members.
"The official family, according to the official theory, consider this matter from another angle. The Zhong family and the Zhe family are all generals in the northwest. Now they are completely under the control of the imperial court. They no longer listen to the instructions but not the announcements."
"In this battle, Zhe Jimin, who was unfamiliar to the officials, led the army alone, but he was left behind to guard the grain road..."
"And now, he can also lead the army alone. He should be grateful to the imperial court for his discernment in recognizing heroes when it comes to accurate vaccination!"
It was purely a joke, and it also showed the confidence of Fu Bi and even the entire court in this war.
Indeed, the current battle situation is proceeding completely according to the deduction...
The five thousand soldiers guarding the food road leading to the Hengshan battlefield were a very abnormal configuration for a team under Gao Zunyu.
This time the Xixia army attacked the grain road and formed an absolute circle around Gao Zunyu's tribe. It is certainly possible to roughly estimate the number of soldiers guarding the grain road.
When the Xixia people attacked the grain road, the cavalry guarding the grain road collapsed...~If these cavalry disappeared, comparing the number of soldiers equipped with this grain road, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Xixia people.
How to close the last link of this great siege, we must let the soldiers guarding the grain road continue to participate in the battle, so that the Xixia people can believe that... this grain road is very important, which means that Gao Zunyu's department is very important.
, can also induce the Xixia people to make up their mind to annihilate Gao Zunyu's tribe...
Of course, it is impossible for the people of Xixia not to know that Gao Zunyu is the Empress's uncle, nor to the number of official concubines and his love for the Empress.
At that time, when the official family got married, it was said that the queen married her daughter, and Xixia also sent people to attend the wedding ceremony of His Highness the Crown Prince at that time.
Sometimes I don’t even dare to think about it. When I think about it, I look up to the officials’ ideas, or I can’t say I look up to them.
As for this grand scheme, only now can most people see the clues to it.
The entire plan took into account not only the character and ability of the generals, but also the relationship between the generals, their origins, and how the Xixia people would think about it and how they would respond.
It is precisely because of this that such a big plan can be successful.
Di Qing is cunning and calculating, Zhong E is brave and fierce, Guo Kui is mature and prudent, Gao Zunyu is eager for quick success, Wang Shao is ingenious, Li Xian is law-abiding, Kumamoto is tepid, Zheji Min is conservative, Zhong Di
Unwilling to tolerate...
Even the deployment of lieutenants fully takes into account their complementarity.
