Chapter nine hundred and ninetieth: rule all people on their own
He knew in his heart that this was an arduous task that he might not be able to win with ten thousand people, but he couldn't refuse it directly. Wu Yi had no choice but to say in a roundabout way: "I'll try my best!"
Zhang Tianwen had a smile in his eyes and understood what Wu Yi meant, but he didn't say much.
At this time, the general who had spoken before opened his mouth to explain Wu Yi's experience of the capture of Tianlang City, saying: "Three days ago, when the two sides were preparing to negotiate, the Beibei took advantage of our army's unpreparedness and shamelessly attacked..."
Next, it was basically this general who talked about it for about half an hour. Although a lot of the content was of little use, Wu Yi still understood the basic facts in one word, excluding subjective descriptions, and, as the first
Hand-held information is of immeasurable value.
The Ninan tribe has gained great prestige since they captured Tianlang City, so they have been quite public during the negotiations these days. In fact, this also means that the so-called war is an extension of politics.
In order to restore the declining situation, Zhang Tianwen insisted on launching a war. To this end, he did not hesitate to promote Wu Yi, a man with no fame. When Wu Yi had no experience, he dared to let Wu Yi lead ten thousand people.
Wu Yi stood up and made a military salute: "I will not dare to disappoint the marshal!"
Zhang Tianwen also had tears in his eyes and said: "I am really lucky to meet you. Without further ado, the chiefs may notice, so let's set off tonight! I have already prepared those ten thousand people for you!"
It seems that the seriousness of the matter is beyond his imagination! Wu Yi thought to himself, but Zhang Tianwen gave such an order, Wu Yi could only accept it like this, and he accepted it without mentioning it.
Tonight, Wu Yi was almost alone, braving the wind and snow and leaving the smoke mouth, with only one of Zhang Tianwen's soldiers accompanying him, and not even a warrant.
Wu Yi even suspected that Zhang Tianwen was planning to take advantage of the opportunity to kill him in a deserted place. However, if such a person really did such a despicable thing, it would be too low of status for him to do it himself.
The horse galloped faster and without stopping for a moment, Wu Yi quickly left the Wolf Smoke Mouth and headed south for a hundred miles to the Thorny Ridge. The soldier said to Wu Yi: "The ten thousand troops prepared for you are right here!"
Sure enough, the powerful bandits that Thorn Ridge could not destroy had the shadow of the Northern Army of the Great Extreme Dynasty behind them.
Wu Yi understood this when he followed Shen Congyue to subdue the Jingji Ridge bandits.
But Wu Yi didn't remember that there were tens of thousands of bandits in Jingjiling Ridge. This meant that the composition of this army was probably extremely mixed. In addition to bandits, there should also be many refugees and surrendered northern tribes.
Wu Yi sighed. If he were to lead a regular army, the chances of winning this battle would not be small, at least with his friends. However, in an army with such a mixed composition, how to coordinate the internal factions is a major problem.
How to motivate them, how to make them obey your orders, and most importantly, how to prevent them from turning against each other before the war. The opponent is strong and not terrible. If you can't even control your own troops, it will be a great tragedy.
Wu Yi has not fought against the Rinan people, nor is he familiar with them. All he knows are some rumors, which means he does not know the other side.
Not knowing himself or the enemy, Wu Yi felt that this war was extremely difficult before the war began. The odds of victory were not indescribable, but whether there was any chance of victory.
The soldier blew a whistle, and not long after, a faint sound came from the mountains and fields, and figures appeared in front of them. It was only in a place like Thorny Ridge that so many people could be hidden.
Strictly speaking, they are secretly supported by the Daji Dynasty. They have good equipment and a large number of war horses. They are basically armors passed down by veterans after they retired from the battlefield and are produced by the military.
Moreover, a group of people roaring in the mountains and forests, killing decisively, are definitely qualified in terms of the quality of the soldiers. If they are trained, they may not be able to become an army that can fight a hundred battles across the battlefield.
Seeing the troops emerging one after another, Wu Yi felt somewhat confident. It seemed that this war was not without any chance of winning.
The soldiers spoke to the leading group of them and told them what Zhang Tianwen meant. In front of Zhang Tianwen's soldiers, these people also expressed their opinions that they would definitely obey Wu Yi's orders and serve the Daji Dynasty.
So much.
After the soldiers completed Zhang Tianwen's mission, they left Thorn Ridge and returned to Langyankou to save their lives.
Wu Yi appeared from behind his own soldiers. Before he could say a word, several people with deep gangsterism came to Wu Yi and asked about Wu Yi's military exploits. Some of the gangsters in Jingjiling Ridge were even members of the army.
Those who joined after retiring were convinced by the military's routine.
Wu Yi did not deceive them and told them his basic background, "I am no more than a thousand captains. I am stationed at Langyankou not far away. I think many of you know me, so I won't introduce myself too much."
"Marshal Zhang Tianwen has been promoted among the thousands of troops and can lead you all. I hope you will not give up and recapture Tianlang City. The glory can only be obtained today!"
Wu Yi spoke passionately, but there were only a few people who catered to him. The people present were all from the two major forces. To put it bluntly, they were just grassroots. Wu Yi wanted to mobilize the fighting spirit of this group of people.
, how difficult it is, and they are not ignorant and simple farmers.
A gangster with triangular eyes stood up and said to Wu Yi: "May I ask, sir, how many troops are on this trip? How many reinforcements are there?"
This question is on point. If Wu Yi tells the truth, it is conceivable that he will not want to lead this group of people in the future.
So, Wu Yi lied to them and said: "We are the vanguard, putting pressure on the Rinan tribe. If they correct their mistakes and restrain their evil intentions in time, good results will be achieved. If not, once Zhang Tianwen decides to send troops, the heavenly troops will suppress the territory."
, it’s the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves!”
"So, we just need to scare them, right? Sir?" This understanding is worthy of the gangsters who survived in places like Thorn Ridge. They understand that the so-called fame and fame are false, and only their own lives are their own.
.
"Of course, but if your expedition is fruitful, the rewards and punishments will be clear!" The word "punishment" in the last sentence is the key point.
The gangsters knew it well and remained silent. With Marshal Zhang Tianwen's command, Wu Yi successfully obtained the leadership of the team. Even though he was a little tired, he organized the team and started the expedition.
During the march, there was almost no discipline at all, and he arrived alone, which meant that Wu Yi needed to separate from them if he wanted to establish his own faction.
Not to mention that Wu Yi was not familiar with them at all. Even if he did become familiar with them in the future, the original bandit leader would probably not agree with Wu Yi, a wandering official, interfering in their internal affairs.
