Furthermore, Xiao Yan suppressed military generals. He did not give military generals with other surnames much military power on the battlefield, and the members of the clan were not outstanding in the military. However, Xiao Yan still insisted on letting them be the commanders and preside over the overall situation.
Xiao Yan's own military quality is not high either.
Xiao Daocheng, the founding emperor of the Southern Qi Dynasty, was a general in his own right. Military merit or not, Xiao Daocheng could be said to have conquered the country step by step. However, Xiao Yan became famous in one fell swoop by using the chaos caused by the cute baby Xiao Baojuan. The origin of a Southern Qi clan.
I say this not to deny some of Xiao Yan's achievements, but compared with Xiao Daocheng, his military quality is worse. In addition, he insists on choosing mediocre members of the clan as generals. This can also be understood why Wei Wei The capital of the country is in such chaos, and the reason why Nanliang still can't go to the north is.
For these reasons, Xiao Yan did not listen to Chen Qingzhi's suggestion and thought that attacking Wuxing State was the best. If Kunyu State could not be conquered, could it be that he couldn't even deal with the small Wuxing State? Therefore, Xiao Yan sent troops to Wuxing State.
After Ning Xu and Ning Hui led their troops away, Ning Yan arranged for people to go to Wuxing State. The troops were led by Ning Cheng and Huang Shen.
When they were at home, Ning Cheng, Ning Yu, Ning Meng and Ning Cheng also talked about weapons. However, Hyun felt that as long as there were fewer deaths, dependence would be enough, it didn't matter, but Ning Yu and Ning Cheng didn't think so.
It is a good thing to make weapons more powerful than a tiger, but it is not a good phenomenon to make soldiers dependent on them.
Huang Yan has been training in the army for several years, and finally he is no longer so Buddhist. No, it is that he is no longer Buddhist in terms of combat. On weekdays, he is still quite, quite Buddhist.
On the way, Ning Cheng thought of this matter again and discussed with Huang Sui how to fight. It would be better if fewer people were killed, but it would be even better if they could rely on tactics to reduce the number of casualties.
Huang Yan listened to Ning Cheng's story, and the more he listened, the more confused he became. In the past few years in the army, he had heard more rumors about Hyun than at home. For Huang Yan, Hyun was a mysterious person, and he could not guess what she was thinking.
Now I heard Ning Cheng say it again and asked very strangely:
"Master Zhuo doesn't want people to die in a war?"
I muttered the second part of the sentence in my mind: How should we fight this battle?
As he muttered, he thought of the few battles he had participated in. He threw out firecrackers and pills, and he always fell down no matter how many times they came. Huang Yan called the biochemical weapons pills, thinking that it was more convenient to call them pills. Calling biochemical weapons too easy to bite the tongue.
And he said to himself:
"It's true that there are not many dead people."
Ning Cheng has been with Huang Fu all the way and knows him somewhat. Huang Sun lives in his own world. Sometimes when others are chatting, he will sit aside and think about himself. He is not at the same point as others. What's more, even if Even while chatting with Huang Yan, he could think of somewhere else to go.
To sum up, as long as it is a small talk, whether Huang Fang can talk to others or not, and whether he is thinking on the same line as the speaker, depends on whether he is interested in the topic of conversation. If the topic is not interesting, it depends on whether the speaker is interested. If these two items are not satisfied, then Huang Yan's thinking will go somewhere.
Ning Cheng wondered how Old General Huang Mi could teach such a godly man. Because he understood this, Ning Cheng always only talked about topics related to this expedition when talking to Huang Mi. This was business, not idle chat. , Therefore, it can be guaranteed that Huang Yan's thinking will never disappear without a trace, but will jump a little.
Ning Cheng didn't care how Huang Yan jumped, as long as he was on the same line as him, he continued:
"If you don't kill too many people, it will make the soldiers rely on weapons instead of tactics. As a soldier, it is correct to rely on tactics."
Huang Wei nodded:
"Then King Xiao Yi plans to fight without weapons? How can he fight without weapons? Dig tunnels? However, the city wall is quite deep underground. Digging tunnels is too time-consuming." He looked up at the sky and said, "Fly over there? We didn't bring the Flying Team here." Ah, one more thing, how many times do the Flyers have to go back and forth to bring everyone to the city, and they will be attacked during this period..."
Ning Cheng quickly interrupted Huang Nai's words and stopped Huang Nai's divergent thinking from continuing.
He sighed helplessly:
"This time we are going to help Wu Xingguo resist foreign enemies. It does not involve siege. I said we do not rely on weapons, but on tactics."
Huang Yan nodded again:
"Yes, we don't need to attack the city this time!"
Ning Cheng was happy, seeing his energetic look, thinking about what he must say.
Huang Yan looked ahead with bright eyes for a while, then suddenly his momentum disappeared again, and he said with a bitter look on his face:
"But there's nothing easy about defending the city. It's the opponent who has to rely on tactics. We have soldiers to block it, and water and soil to cover it up. What tactics we adopt all depends on what moves the opponent uses. Moreover," he said, looking at Ning Cheng seriously, "attack the city." The battle was very fierce. Did King Xiao Yi really not intend to use pills? That would really save a lot of people from dying."
Ning Cheng looked up at the sky and suddenly didn't know how to continue this topic.
Ning Cheng stopped talking here, but Huang Sui over there continued to think wildly, so much so that the branches scratched his face, and he realized that he should bend down to avoid it.
The group arrived at Wuxing Kingdom and were warmly welcomed by Yang Zhihui. A grand palace banquet was held and Ning Cheng and other key personnel were entertained very warmly.
After that, Ning Cheng and others went to Guancheng at the junction of Wuxing State and Nanliang. Ning Cheng ordered not to display their flags out or make any noise. Not all the troops entered Guancheng, and many of them stayed outside the city. Just to create an illusion to Nanliang.
As for the border with the Yinping Kingdom, it was not within the scope of Ning Cheng's consideration at all. Ning Xu and Ning Hui led troops to fight against the Yinping Kingdom. How could the Yinping Kingdom still have the energy to scheme against the Wuxing Kingdom? However, Ning Cheng still proposed to Yang Zhihui to let Don't take it lightly.
Yang Zhihui agreed repeatedly and actively cooperated with Ning Cheng and the others' actions.
Let’s talk about Ning Xu and Ning Hui.
The two of them were not in a hurry, but moved forward slowly and leisurely. The purpose of doing so was to cause psychological pressure to the other party, and to make them watch the God of Death carrying the scythe and walking slowly step by step.
The two of them had said that they wanted to rely on tactics to win the battle, so they discussed it with several generals on the way.
They came without siege tools this time, so unless the officials surrendered, they could only use biological and chemical weapons.
A general said:
"When Lord Zhuo attacked Qianyang, he surrounded Qianyang, but continued to attack Chencang, causing Qianyang to be defeated without a fight."
Another general answered:
"Yes, yes, Tuoba Tao's surprise attack on Qianyang also caused our Chencang to be defeated without a fight."
The first general to speak glanced at him, then looked at Ning Xu and Ning Hui worriedly.
As a military general, it is impossible for him to have no defeats, but losing a battle and losing the city is a stain. They are afraid that Ning Hui and Ning Xu will cause trouble for this general.
However, it seemed that the two of them not only did not cause trouble for the general, but also had a heated discussion and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Xu said:
"Back then, Lord Zhuo spent a lot of thought on Qian Yang."
Although Ning Xu didn't say it clearly, everyone knew that he had been delaying the attack for several months with all kinds of tricks, waiting until Le Zhengyuan captured Chencang and came back with reinforcements.
Ning Hui shook his head:
"Repeating old tricks is one way to do it, but you can't just follow the script. You have to have some tricks, otherwise it will be easy to be seen through."
This is indeed the case, but in what way?
Lei Heng thought for a while and said:
"Last time Master Zhuo used soft moves to paralyze the people of Qianyang. This time we use hard moves to hang the people in the city."
The soldiers guarding the city behind the Yinping Kingdom finally got the news that Kunyu's army was approaching. Ever since the city was broken, everyone had been waiting with fear. The information sent back by the scouts fell like snowflakes on the governor's desk. During this period, the governor used almost all his scouts to investigate Kunyu's army.
Seeing that the Kunyu National Army was finally approaching, he took a long breath and leaned back on his chair:
"Finally, it's finally here."
After sitting for a while, he got up and walked to the street. He learned that after Guancheng was broken, all the people in the city fled. Even the governor asked his family to leave. Now in this city, except for a few people Outside, there are only soldiers left. Although Kunyu Kingdom has a very good reputation, a war is a war. No matter how good the reputation is, there is still a war. How can the people not worry and be afraid?
The streets that used to be bustling now only contain various things left behind in the panic when people fled. Unclosed doors hung creaking on the door frames. The wind blew through the empty streets, blowing and blowing, forming a A small tornado was swirling and moving forward quickly, causing a pile of paper scraps and leaves to chase it around.
Although it has not yet reached the twelfth lunar month of winter, as a governor, my heart is as desolate as the twelfth lunar month of winter:
The city that we worked so hard to build ended up in such a miserable state...
The governor turned around and looked towards the direction where Kunyu's army was coming. The sky seemed to be much darker:
Perhaps, this is not the last scene. It will be the last scene when the Kunyu National Army crosses the border.
A general came from the direction of the city wall on horseback. After seeing this, he got off his horse and saluted him as a general:
"grown ups."
The governor looked at the general:
"Get up. It's time now. There's no need for these false courtesy." After the general got up, "How's the front? How far is the army of Kunyu Kingdom?"
The general said:
"It will probably arrive in the evening."
"At night," the governor looked up at the sky, "please cheer up the soldiers. I don't know if they will attack as soon as they arrive, but they all need to be ready for battle!"
The general responded:
"yes!"
The general rode away again, and as the clatter of horse hooves gradually faded away, only the governor was left on the street.
He turned around and returned to the house, but he was the only one left inside and outside. Not to mention people, even the cats and dogs had left with his family. The house was so empty that there were echoes wherever he walked. It was even more melancholy here, so I simply went to the city wall and waited with the soldiers for the arrival of the Kunyu Kingdom army.
The sky is getting darker and darker. It's obviously not a very cold weather, but it feels extremely cold tonight. The oncoming wind seems to be mixed with the smell of blood and rust, and it whizzes straight into the neck.
