Yang Su understood what Chun Yucen meant. Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, soldiers and horses have always been pursuing elite soldiers and horses. After recruitment, new soldiers must undergo more training before they can go to the battlefield. Only elite soldiers and horses with outstanding performance are eligible to be transferred to the Imperial Guard or even the Imperial Guard.
Being selected into the Yulin Cavalry, being able to join the Imperial Guard or even the Yulin Cavalry is the highest honor for a soldier. This means that they are the leaders among the soldiers and the backbone of the great man.
Therefore, while soldiers strive for their own glory, of course they must also maintain their own identity and glorious status. This is precisely because it is not easy to go from an ordinary soldier to the Imperial Guard, and to become a general requires many meritorious deeds.
Therefore, he is respected by the army and even the entire court. But if anyone can join the army and fly the red banner of the Han Dynasty to promote that he is the king of the Han Dynasty that the world worships, then wouldn't this honor become worthless?
Did you mention it?
The Imperial Guards were originally the elite of the Han army, but now that they are all a bunch of rabble, they can all be called the Han army, especially since many of these guys had bullied the weak before when they were in the Northern Zhou army.
, the matter of feeding the common people was naturally looked down upon by the officers and soldiers of the Han army who had strict military discipline. Therefore, when they realized that they were going to be with them, everyone in the Imperial Guard naturally had opinions. Now Chunyucen is here to give feedback.
In addition, from the perspective of a combat commander, Chun Yucen obviously did not think that letting these guys attack the city would have any effect.
Of course, Chun Yucen also had some suspicions about Yang Su. What do you want to do when you have gathered tens of thousands of troops at once?
Yang Su nodded and said: "What Yizhong said is not unreasonable. These private armies of aristocratic families have little combat power in the first place. It is not that easy to rely on them to defeat the city. However, I have no intention of doing this. To win over such a
The purpose of having more soldiers and horses is firstly to win over people's hearts, and secondly to increase the momentum. When we actually attack the city, these people may be able to fill in the front, but when we really attack, we have to rely on Yi Zhong's Imperial Guards."
Yang Su's words contained compliments, which made Chunyucen's face look a little better.
Yang Su said helplessly: "Yanmen Xiongguan is known to the world. But now we have only a few thousand guardsmen, plus the artillery team supported by the navy to control the artillery, the total is less than
Thousands of people stand on Guancheng and look down from a high position. The enemy will know the details of our army at a glance. When the time comes, they will even be able to tell at a glance that our army does not have many troops. When the enemy launches an attack from top to bottom, what should our army do?
?”
This sentence suddenly made Chunyu Cen not sure how to answer.
Indeed, the strength of the Imperial Guard is not very large. If we block the roads in the mountains, there will be only a handful of soldiers and horses left on the front for attack. When the enemy looks from the mountain, good guys, all in all.
Only two or three thousand people dared to be so arrogant. If they really came out of the city, the Imperial Guards might not be able to stop them. If they couldn't, it would be a shame.
And now the Han army is approaching fiercely, even if it involves many tribes of aristocratic families, it can at least create an illusion for the enemy that the mountains and plains are full of Han troops - it doesn't seem right to say it is an illusion, after all, these soldiers
No matter how bad things are, relying on the strength of one's own strength, sometimes one can still fight.
"I would like to be taught." Chunyucen bowed his hand.
This was indeed something I didn't expect.
Yang Su breathed a sigh of relief. Your Majesty has some skills in employing people. Although Chun Yucen was born in a general, from his father Chun Yu to him, he was not the kind of unreasonable one-minded person. As you say
It makes sense, and I am still willing to accept it. If I were a reckless person here, if I had any opinions on Yang Su, I might have already asked Yang Su if he had any evil intentions, and even
Maybe he led his troops to attack the pass recklessly and did not obey Yang Su's orders at all. In turn, he might be sued again.
When a man of talent encounters a soldier, he cannot explain why he is justified. Yang Su did not want to explain it unclearly.
Now the contradiction between the north and the south within the imperial court has become more and more intense, even gradually surpassing the original contradiction between civil and military affairs. Therefore, although Yang Su does not intend to have a close relationship with Chunyu Cen, there is no need to have conflicts with him on these matters. When the time comes, Chunyu
If Cen used this as an excuse to criticize himself, it would not be a good thing for him.
"However, what Yi Zhong said, I have not ignored the quality of these soldiers and horses." Yang Su said carefully. Of course, it cannot be said that Chun Yucen's worries are all unreasonable. "I have already interacted with these Wubao masters and aristocratic families before.
The family heads have said that as Han generals, they should abide by the rules of the army and abide by the laws of the Han Dynasty. Anyone who violates them will be responsible for the consequences. Having said this, these people should know better and will definitely strictly restrain the soldiers.
, otherwise wouldn’t it be asking for trouble?”
Chunyu Cen nodded.
What these aristocratic families want most now is to save their lives, so at least they will obey these rules, otherwise Yang Su will not be polite to them.
"Brother Yi Zhong still needs to keep a close eye on this. Once these people make any changes, the imperial guards will need to make an immediate decision." Yang Su added immediately.
Chunyucen hurriedly agreed. There were only a hundred personal guards around Yang Su. If these guys wanted to cause trouble, Yang Su would naturally not be able to stop them and would have to rely on the imperial guards.
This is actually a disguised form of giving Chun Yucen an opportunity to kill first and then show off. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate for someone to do this? Don’t you think that someone’s doing this is suspected of being self-respecting? So I’ll give you this authority now. Which one do you think is not right?
Be obedient and don't care about someone's face at all.
"The Imperial Guard will now become a war team." Yang Su said with a smile.
Chunyucen said helplessly: "The Han army is invincible. I have never used a war team. This is my first time. So if there is anything inappropriate, please ask Governor Haihan."
The two looked at each other and then smiled.
Yang Su expressed that he had no intention of winning over these aristocratic families to compete with Chun Yucen. Of course, Chun Yucen would not do it.
On this matter, the two have obviously reached a consensus.
"But does the governor really plan to attack Yanmen with these troops?" Chun Yucen still asked another question of his.
"This time when we attack Yanmen, we can't attack violently, we should attack wisely." Yang Su said with a smile.
"Want to hear the details!" Chunyucen hurriedly raised his hand.
The plan to attack Yanmen was proposed by Yang Su. At first, Chun Yucen thought that his journey was just a partial attack, but later he realized that they were the main force. Therefore, he always wanted to know what Yang Su planned to rely on to quickly win the battle.
