Chapter 11 Lin Nuo ordered Liang Shanbo's first military operation! How much for a thousand cola
As the saying goes, no one should be allowed to snore on the side of the bed. Even if Chao Gai didn't bring it up, Lin Nuo would take the initiative to deal with Zhujiazhuang after a while.
Zhujiazhuang is not an ordinary country manor. It is a "small court" that dominates one side. It is a militarized and institutionalized "family" with the color of evil forces. The central government acquiesces to the collusion of local officials.
Before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, China had not been able to govern counties since ancient times, and the ruling power at the grassroots level was all in the hands of the local powerful clans. In order to maintain their rule, the emperors in ancient feudal society often relied on the support of local family powerful forces.
The powerful can weaken the peasants' resistance struggle, help the feudal regime control the peasants, and stabilize the feudal order.
Not only that, on the surface, Zhujiazhuang belongs to the clan power of the Song Dynasty, but secretly, the owner of Zhujiazhuang has Jurchen ancestry, and has extremely close ties with the Jurchen tribe in the northern part of the Liao Kingdom. It is said that he is a Jurchen tribe.
It is not an exaggeration to place it in the stronghold of the Song Dynasty.
Zhujiazhuang is a well-known force in the world. The village has strong soldiers and horses, and can fight with no less than ten thousand soldiers. Not only is it rich in money and food, but it also raises war horses. It can be said that it is extremely rich.
If nothing else, just the thousands of war horses in the Zhu family village were worthy of Lin Nuo's attention.
Zhujiazhuang must be fought, but Lin Nuo was a little surprised when this proposal came from Chao Gai today. With Chao Gai's IQ, he would not have thought of this.
Thinking of this, Lin Nuo's eyes subconsciously fell on Wu Yong, who was sitting further back. Apart from this dog-headed military counselor, there should be no one who would come up with this thankless plan for Chao Gai.
It's not that Lin Nuo underestimated Chao Gai, but with Chao Gai's ability, he really couldn't win Zhujiazhuang. If he didn't do it well, he would probably lose his life.
It is impossible that Wu Yong did not know the danger involved, but he still persuaded Chao Gai to ask for orders to fight. There is only one possibility, and that is that this duplicitous guy secretly defected to Song Jiang according to the plot in Water Margin.
Thinking of this, Lin Nuo's expression remained unchanged, but there was a slight coldness in his eyes.
It's okay to have competition between factions, but if it's a secret attempt to cause trouble, then don't blame Lin Nuo for killing him!
In response to Chao Gai's request, Lin Nuo did not give a direct reply, but turned to look at the old god Song Jiang sitting below him.
"Leader Song, do you think Zhujiazhuang should be attacked?"
Hearing that Lin Nuo had brought the problem to him, Song Jiang's heart suddenly tightened. He knew in his heart that the village leader had probably guessed the plan of himself and others, and was secretly trying to beat him!
"Back to the village leader, I think Zhujiazhuang should be attacked, but not now!"
Although Song Jiang was eager for Chao Gai to attack Zhujiazhuang now, he understood the truth that going too far is not enough. If he acted too eagerly, he might arouse the resentment of the village leader.
"Master, I also understand the situation in Zhujiazhuang. If we can really capture this village, it will indeed solve Liang Shanbo's urgent need. But there are only more than ten thousand soldiers in our village, so we don't have an advantage over Zhujiazhuang in terms of numbers!
"
"Moreover, the terrain of Zhujiazhuang is complex, it is condescending, and it is on the defensive. It echoes the surrounding Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang. It can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is difficult to win it in one go!"
Lin Nuo nodded. This Song Jiang is really a good person, and his words are impeccable. No wonder he can become the top leader of Liangshan in the plot of Water Margin!
"King Chao Tian, Chief Song means to take it slow before attacking. What do you think?" Lin Nuo looked at Chao Gai and asked.
Chao Gai hesitated for a moment. In fact, he was still a little undecided about attacking Zhujiazhuang, but after hearing Song Jiang's words today, he suddenly made up his mind.
If Song Jiang wants to fight slowly, then I have to fight, otherwise the matter will be delayed and this job will be snatched away by Song Jiang. I am afraid that I will no longer have a place to live in Liangshan Po!
"Brother, the leader of the village, Chao Gai is willing to issue a military order. If we can't defeat Zhujiazhuang, I will come to see you and ask my brother to give me a chance!"
Lin Nuo sighed inwardly, this Chao Gai was really rushing to die!
To be honest, Lin Nuo didn't have any bad feelings towards Chao Gai, at least his impression was better than that of Song Jiang.
But Chao Gai was the third most powerful person in the village after all, and this was the first time he invited troops to fight, and he was even more willing to issue a military order. Although Lin Nuo was the leader of the village, it was hard to reject it directly, lest he would upset the generals under his command.
Hot blood in the cavity.
"Leader Zhu Wu, what do you think about this matter?"
Zhu Wu stood up and replied: "Brother, no matter how well the army is trained, it cannot grow as fast as it does on the battlefield. In my opinion, whether it is a victory or a loss this time, Zhujiazhuang can fight, and it can be regarded as training."
Got it!"
Lin Nuo nodded. What Zhu Wu said made sense. The army should be elite but not large. If it has not experienced war, no matter how many troops there are, they are just decorations.
I remember that when I was in the Ming Dynasty, the three thousand elite cavalry of the Jinyi Guards were tempered through years of fighting with the southern barbarian tribes in the Yunnan-Guizhou region. Today, I just used Zhujiazhuang to practice well.
But even if he wanted to train troops, Lin Nuo would not just watch Chao Gai throw himself into the fire pit. Song Jiang seemed to be aloof, but he didn't even think about it.
"All leaders, listen to the order!" Lin Nuo stood up and swept his majestic gaze across the gathering hall. The aura of an innate strong man was revealed, making everyone feel it was difficult to breathe.
"Master of the village, please give the order!" Everyone stood up quickly. Even Li Kui and other rude men who did not know what fear was, stood up in a hurry and did not dare to slack off at all.
"This attack on Zhujiazhuang will be divided into two groups!"
Lin Nuo's eyes fell on Chao Gai and Song Jiang, "The first route, headed by Chao Gai, led by Qin Ming, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Dai Zong, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, Ma Lin, Deng Fei, Wang Aohu, etc.
Commander, attack from the east!"
"The second route, headed by Song Jiang, led by Hua Rong, Li Jun, Mu Hong, Li Kui, Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, Huang Xin, Ou Peng, Yang Lin and other commanders attacked from the west!"
"I know that the two of you are secretly competing for the position of the third spot. Today, the leader of this village will put his words here. Whoever defeats Zhujiazhuang first will have the position of the third spot. In the future,
There won’t be any more changes, are you two willing?”
Chao Gai and Song Jiang looked at each other, their eyes touched, and then they suddenly looked away. After each snorted coldly in their hearts, they hurriedly stepped forward and said: "There is no point in waiting for us. We are willing to follow the arrangements of the village leader!"
"In this case, you can all go down and prepare. Each of you must gather three thousand soldiers and horses, and set off directly after breakfast!"
Lin Nuo waved his sleeves. At this point, his first large-scale military operation after taking charge of Liangshanbo began!
