Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 147 Zeguo Jiangshan enters the battle map ([-])
Before going to Zijin Mountain, Shi Congyun first met Si Chao, Li Chuyun and Wang Huan in Xiacai.

A few people talked briefly by the Huaihe River for a while, there was no serious atmosphere, and it was not too formal, just like usual bragging.

In the final analysis, many major events in the world are between people. No matter how lofty, noble or despicable, seemingly difficult and unattainable things are ultimately accomplished by people.

And often it is by no means a single person. The victory of a war is the joint efforts and hard work of many people. It is just that some people stand at a high place, some stand at the back, and some stand at the front, and the positions are different.

So getting along and connecting with people determines many things.

Just like the [-] soldiers in the left wing of the Crane Control Army, who followed him all the way, as long as the soldiers followed him, they felt that they could win battles and win battles, and their morale was high.

But Shi Congyun gained his current prestige only by relying on their hard work. Whether he helped the Crane Army or the Crane Army helped him, it is hard to tell, but they all complement each other and share weal and woe.

Shi Congyun never believed in the history full of individual heroism and perfectionism. Judging from his experience, there can be no perfection, no gold is pure, and no one is perfect.At least in his two lifetimes, he has never seen a real perfect person in the world.

So he is not so demanding of others, and he is not so strict with himself.

He doesn’t have the habit of asking others to be perfect and pursuing his own perfection. In his opinion, everyone in this world has his own helplessness and difficulties, and he has no choice but to live. It is not easy for anyone to live. The emperor has to endure many things, let alone every ordinary person people.

So he doesn't care so much about the shortcomings of others, and is more willing to discover the strengths of others.In his opinion, Dong Zunhui, Wang Zhong and others who are all flawed have their own strengths.

"Going down is likely to encounter the Southern Tang Navy, are you confident?"

"To be honest, I'm still a little unsure. The Southern Tang Navy has experience, and we, Yulang, have just formed a new army. But our morale is better and we are well-trained." Si Chao replied.

Shi Congyun patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "What you said is all theoretical, and in the end it depends on the person. I am assured of your abilities, and I believe that you are all people who understand righteousness.

Don't worry about winning or losing, I hope you can cooperate sincerely and work together.

With your abilities, as long as you do these things well, winning a battle is easy. "

"Don't worry, Commander. General Si is a person with experience in water warfare and has a lot of experience. He is the backbone of this naval army. I will definitely give priority to Si Dushi and try my best to assist him." Li Chuyun on the side suddenly took the words and cupped his hands. .

Shi Congyun glanced at Li Chuyun in surprise and nodded, thinking that Li Chuyun's psychology is good, and he can see through his worries at once.

Although he arranged for Si Chao to have two talented people, Li Chuyun and Wang Huan, he was still a little worried, afraid of taking the lead.

In everything, people are afraid of laymen guiding experts, especially in water warfare. There are not many people in Dazhou who have experience in water warfare, and Si Chao is one of those few people.

Unexpectedly, Li Chuyun understood immediately and came out to promise that Si Chao would be the backbone, which made him feel relieved immediately.

"I'm relieved if you can think like this, I'll leave the matter of the waterway to you.

Tushan is very important, it is an important water fortress of the Southern Tang navy, and it is also the retreat of the Southern Tang land army. If you take Tushan down the river, it will cut off their way to retreat eastward. "Shi Congyun emphasized again.

Si Chao, Wang Huan, and Li Chuyun clapped their hands at the same time, "Don't worry, Commander, I will fight to the death."

Shi Congyun nodded, and then told them: "I asked Zhao Kuangyin to go overland from Chuzhou to attack Tushan, and he will arrive within four or five days without any accidents.

But how to cooperate well is your business, you can decide for yourself, and I will also send someone to Zhao Kuangyin to tell him your departure time. "

Several people nodded and noted that there is no means of instant communication nowadays, and this kind of joint operations between the various armies is very difficult, and it depends entirely on the tacit understanding between the generals of the various armies.

The most important thing is to test the prestige and popularity of the coach!

If the generals of the various armies refuse to accept the coach, they have various reasons for delaying, or they all think that they will not work hard and let the opponent fight first, then no matter how good the layout is, it will become a pile of shit.

Tushan is along the Huaihe River, and Zijin Mountain is more than 100 miles east along the river, opposite to Huaikou, and then tens of miles east along the river is Haozhou.

Today it is an important military port in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it is also an important place for the land army to go east along the river.

While Shi Congyun was thinking about dealing with Zijin Mountain's face-to-face enemy, he was ready to encircle Si Chao, Wang Huan, Li Chuyun, Zhao Kuangyin and others to attack Tu Shanshui village by water and land.

The price is that Zhao Kuangyin gave up Chuzhou, Qingliuguan and other places.

He thought about it carefully, Qingliu Pass is not Jianmen Pass, there are many ways to get around, not to mention Jianmen Pass has been spared many times!If Tushan and Haozhou are taken down, Qingliuguan will also be useless.

In early March, Shi Congyun went to the north of Zijin Mountain and met Wang Shenqi and others in the camp at the foot of the mountain.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Shi Congyun did not command blindly, but asked them how they planned to fight.

He was thinking about the overall layout of Huainan. As for the specific tactical arrangement of how to fight Zijin Mountain, he believed that Wang Shenqi, Gao Huaide, Wang Zhong, Shao Ji, Dong Zunhui, Luo Yanhuan, Shen Zhiyi and others had discussed it for two days. Much more detailed and thoughtful than him.

"Marshal, I have discussed with Gao Dushi and others, and I think it is better to divide the troops." Wang Shenqi said.

"According to reports from the scouts, the main force of the Southern Tang Army is now divided into two parts, one part has already approached the mountains, stationed in the middle basin of the peaks in the north-central part, and built camps and sentry towers to the high places in all directions.

To the east, there is a road leading to the bank of the Huaihe River. There is a large camp of the Southern Tang Army by the riverside. Most of their main force is stationed on the bank of the Huaihe River. "

"Zijin Mountain is long and narrow from north to south, and there are many mountain roads. There are indeed roads that can be used to enter the mountain and reach various villages and towns.

So let me discuss it later. In this case, we might as well take advantage of the fact that there are many mountain passes, separate our soldiers, and start attacking the mountain from all directions.In this way, the cavalry of the small team can also enter the mountain. Our cavalry is better than them. "

Shi Congyun thought for a while and asked him, "What about the specific tactics? How do you plan to fight?"

"The puppet Tang army built a lot of sentry towers and camps on the mountain roads, and they must fight tough battles.

Some good men in the army can play forward. They all wear two layers of armor and five layers of cowhide, and then rush in directly.

Soldiers who are good at shooting gather together and follow behind to lead the battle. The mountain road is not wide, and the better the soldiers, the better.

There is a wider avenue in the north, which can go directly to the mountains, and the Gaodu envoy led the elite cavalry to fight. "

Shi Congyun quickly understood what Wang Shenqi and the others meant. To put it bluntly, Wang Shenqi and the others were very confident. tactics.

Don't underestimate this seemingly simple tactic.

The team has cohesion, centripetal force, and the soldiers are united, that is, blooming on all sides, attacking everywhere, hitting the enemy on all sides, making it difficult to guard against, and giving full play to the combat effectiveness of each soldier.

If the team is loose, the morale of the soldiers is low, and the morale is high and low, it will be a mess, pulling the hips everywhere, and even more serious, just let go. If you dare to disperse the soldiers, it will immediately evolve into free play and escape across the board.

Today's Konghe Zuoxiang came all the way from Guanzhong with him, defeated the eight camps of the Shu army, defeated Li Yangui, went to Wuwei City, fought Huanghua Valley, attacked Tangcang Town, set up Baijian, and fought fiercely in Zhengyang. Compare.

This is also the reason why they dared to fight like this after discussing it.

Shi Congyun also had great confidence in controlling the crane's left chamber, and nodded directly, "Then fight like this, and I will add that if you want to fight like this, then follow through to the end."

"Shao Ji, Wang Zhong, Dong Zunhui, Luo Yanhuan, Shen Zhiyi, each of you lead your elite soldiers to attack the various camps, and let the rest of the soldiers fight by themselves. Each of you forms a team and enters the mountain after the elite soldiers."

After finishing speaking, he looked behind Luqiu Zhongqing and said, "Go and get the money."

"Although the soldiers are voluntary, as a commander, we must know what to do. Only when rewards and punishments are clearly defined can the whole army be motivated. If soldiers who dare to fight are treated the same as ordinary soldiers, who will be willing to take the lead after a long time.

Pass on my order, all the vanguards who break through the enemy with armor will be rewarded with five thousand coins each."

In the afternoon, many officers and men of the Crane Control Army gathered in the valley to the north of the camp. There was no strict formation, and everyone was standing or sitting. There was going to be a battle tomorrow, and many people were still preparing.

It was also an order from Shi Congyun. It was not something serious, but it was to get everyone together. It had been a long time since we had seen each other to say a few words.

He climbed up a big rock in the valley so that everyone could see him, and soon he felt the gazes from all directions, and the noise in the valley instantly quieted down.

"Everyone relax, there is no big deal today, tomorrow there will be a war and I will draw you to say a few words, tomorrow X will go to Shouzhou." Shi Congyun said.

He was indeed going to Shouzhou. The key to this battle was in Shouzhou, and it was easier to command and contact the various Zhou armies in Huainan from the south of Shouzhou.

Every time he spoke in the valley, there was an echo, which made his voice seem louder, "You Wangxiang Master told me that when I come back, you all seem to be alive, and you feel that the whole army is different.

They all feel that if you fight with someone, you will win every battle!

I think that is not nonsense!Laozi is now Huainan's recruiter, Huainan's commander-in-chief! "

Shi Congyun whispered from the bottom of his heart, and all the soldiers in the valley burst into laughter.

"However, it is not so much to say that I am victorious in all battles with me, it is better to say that all the soldiers and brothers gave me the reputation of being victorious in all battles! After all, you are the ones who fight hard to kill the enemy. It's gone, and you can't hear me.

In any case, you have helped me along the way. "

"What did the commander-in-chief say? If there is another person, we will all be here to listen to you!" Someone yelled below, and everyone immediately echoed.

"Then we will help each other!" Shi Congyun laughed.

"In any case, I have been through life and death for so long, I believe in you! I believe in the ability of each of you, you are the most capable soldiers in the world! The mere puppet Tang army is not worthy of carrying our shoes."

All the soldiers shouted and laughed excitedly.

Shi Congyun saw that everyone's morale was high, and he continued: "In the past, we gave orders from above, and the subordinates simply carried out the orders.

Tomorrow is different, you fight it yourself!
Each team (about 100 people) formed a team and fought directly along the mountain road on the mountain.

You decide for yourself, judge for yourself, and fight for yourself.I believe in the ability and strength of each of you, the mere puppet Tang army is by no means your opponent!

Our men who control the Crane Army are so terrified that they want to kill them, they dare to run away when they see each other! "

"Kill his mother!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"kill!"

"kill"

"."

In an instant, the sound of killing was like thunder, shaking the valley, as if the whole valley was shaken, and the sound of killing like thunder could still be heard several miles away.
The next day, the sun rose in the east, and Zijin Mountain was peaceful. The Zhou army camp at the foot of the mountain was a little different from usual.

Cooking was very early today, and then Gao Huaide led the elite cavalry out of the camp, stepping on the gravel and mud on the road to the north of the mountain.

Afterwards, many men in full armor, wearing thick armor and armed to the eye, left the camp carrying axes, knives, and hammers, and began to march south, followed by many lightly armored crossbowmen.

Afterwards, all the officers and soldiers formed a team of a hundred people, divided into four rows, left the camp one by one with high morale, and marched towards the south. This kind of formation has never been seen before.

After Shi Congyun explained everything to Wang Shenqi and Gao Huaide yesterday afternoon, he left Daying and headed south to Shouzhou City.

When he reached the other side of the Feishui River, he saw Li Chongjin.

Li Chongjin led the Hujie Army with about [-] cavalry to cross the river quietly at night for two consecutive days, and deployed them in a valley called Dongshantao to the south of Zijin Mountain.

The main forces of Hujie and Guanhe are infantry, but there are also a certain number of cavalry, but the proportion is very small.

Hujie's army has more than 2000 infantry, and only about [-] mixed light and heavy cavalry.The crane control army is even smaller, only about two thousand.

Crossing a mountain from here is the corridor built by the Southern Tang Army, about five or six miles away.

Mountain ridges and trees blocked the line of sight, and it was difficult for the Southern Tang Army across a mountain or the defenders in Shouzhou City on the other side to find them.

The first time he saw Li Chongjin, he said bluntly: "Don't worry, tomorrow someone will personally lead a surprise attack and destroy their tunnel.

Don't stay here today, so as not to upset everyone, you should hurry across the river and attract the attention of the defenders and Liu Renshan by the way, that old man is very clever, maybe he will see through. "

Shi Congyun was so angry that he almost scolded him, but when he thought of relying on him to fight the war, he endured it immediately. He led more than [-] personal guard cavalry, raised a banner, and swaggered across the Fei River.

He was not afraid of the actions of the Southern Tang army on the north bank, because there were tens of thousands of siege troops mixed by the Hujie army and the township soldiers from various states under the city of Shouzhou.

After crossing the Feishui, Shi Congyun met Zhang Yongde and Zhao Chao in the siege camp in the south of Shouzhou City, and settled down immediately, and the day passed quickly.

At the beginning of March, Liu Renshan would take people up to the high wall in the north of the city every day to see the construction of the corridor in the north, which gave him and many soldiers in the city the confidence to stick to it.

Yesterday afternoon, Zhou Guoxin's commander-in-chief crossed the Feishui River and settled in the south camp of Shouzhou City. The huge commander-in-chief flag could be seen clearly from several miles away.

This action immediately made Liu Renshan heave a sigh of relief. He had heard from an old friend before that Zhou Jun's new commander was a talented young man, and he had won all kinds of beautiful victories, so he was very nervous about what he would do.

Seeing that his handsome flag has arrived at the city of Shouzhou now, he must be attacking and besieging the city as before, and he can't think of any way to do it.

Immediately, Liu Renshan felt relieved a lot, looked into the distance, and thought that if all parties supported in time and progressed smoothly, it would not be a problem for Shouzhou to stay for another year or so, and the Zhou Dynasty would definitely have to return without success!

Then he laughed at himself, it seems that he was thinking too much, he was too nervous to think wildly, a young man in his eighteenth or nineteenth year led the army, and there were many veterans with high authority and military experience under him, a group of arrogant soldiers, nine out of ten If you don't listen to him, tell anyone not to move, why talk about what to do?

When he was nervous before, he didn't even think of these things, so he relaxed in his heart.
