Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 725 You must fight well and skillfully

What is called an admiral, that is, no matter how big or small a battle is, he can control his strength well, send and receive his strength freely, deal heavy blows to the enemy tactically, and not affect the overall strategy in terms of strategy. It is also the reason why Li Chengqian chose Hou Junji instead of the Xuanjia Army and the generals of the garrison.

As early as the end of Wude, there was a big bandit in Xiangyang—Ding Jie. The local military government couldn’t deal with this big bandit at all. After Hou Junji led the military government, he adopted the strategy of suppressing and appeasement, and fought steadily. It didn’t take long to calm down The banditry in the land of Jingzhou.

After Hou Junji took over the command, he adopted the policy of encircling three and missing one, and drove the Turkic people from Wugong County to Fufeng County like rabbits, because the prince had ordered before the war that the attack on Luanjia was already a big deal, and he didn't want to do it again. Let the people of the two counties suffer too much disturbance.

Although it took a lot of thought, the beast camp that the prince carried with him did give him a big surprise, or refreshed his knowledge of setting up the Chinese military tent for many years, because he never thought that the Chinese military tent would be okay. do this.

These soldiers used local materials in the low-lying part of the mountainside, dug deep into the ground, cut wood as a frame, and wrapped it in cement to build a bunker.At the same time, in the surrounding five miles, they were either hidden in trees or on the ground as secret sentries, supplemented by a certain number of patrols.

There are many vents on the top of the bunker, which can not only ensure the circulation of air, but also allow the bunker to take in light, so just light a little fire to brighten the lights inside.

The simple wooden tables and chairs opposite Hou Junji are very satisfied. They are rough, simple, and practical, and they are indeed necessary for military strategists. From this small bunker, you can see the reason why the six rates of all battles are victorious.

"Prince, with your unique way of deploying camps, you are already considered a family in the military. And these soldiers are no worse than the Flying Tiger Army trained by this old minister back then. Stay here to guard It's a pity for Shuai Zhang to watch other people make meritorious deeds!"

Hou Junji was famous for being good at training soldiers before he worshiped Li Jing as his teacher. He has led soldiers all his life and fought for decades. He can tell what kind of soldiers are good soldiers at a glance.The so-called lowlands cannot be seen without high mountains. With these elite beast battalion soldiers dangling in front of their eyes, they can still see the Zhechong government army surrounding the mountains.

"Hey, I can't say that. Gu is all a trick, and you are incomparable to Lu Guogong. Back then, you followed your father and used the military power and supplies of Jinyang to conquer the world in a few years like a snowball. Gu Compared with you, what you eat is ready-made, and you have inexhaustible manpower and materials, if you can't do well in training, it will be a waste of money for the country!"

There is a saying that people are forced out, but Li Chengqian never compares himself with Li Shimin or his generals, because he is not sure that he is in that era, has the same materials and manpower, and is more capable than others. They are even better, so this sentence is a paradox in his eyes.

Hearing what the prince said, the old Hou pinched his waist and laughed heartily. It wasn't that he was taking credit for his pride, but that the prince had said what he was most proud of in his life. , To show descendants, life is so what can I ask for!
At the time when Hou Junji was most interested, Li Daoyu and Liang Jianfang reported their account and received the money. They came to plead for orders. There are more than a thousand Turkic barbarians in the area, and it won't take long for them to wipe out these stinky fish and rotten shrimps.

Hou Junji looked back at Li Chengqian, saw that the prince was just reading quietly, without any intention of interfering, nodded with a smile, and then said in a deep voice: "Pass down this commander-in-chief, and set fire to the mountain in two quarters, Shen Shichu If they still don't surrender at this moment, you two will lead the army to attack the mountain separately, and tell the soldiers to try to catch as many lives as possible, and the military merit will be counted twice, only if there are more lives, we can talk!"

"Also, don't worry about Qin Huaiyu's mouth, he has an important task there, he alone has the final say on whether to let him go or not!"

Hou Junji's military order made Li Daoyu and Liang Jianfang a little confused. They have fought for half their lives, and they have never received such a strange military order.If you attack the top of the mountain, you will attack the top of the mountain, and you have to try your best to catch the living, and it’s fine to catch the living, and let Qin Huaiyu let the water aside, isn’t this nonsense!
But the situation is stronger than others, and the prince didn't say a word without looking at it. It seems that they have discussed it early in the morning.Come on, don't pick and choose, as much as you want, you can be content with the soup, how many old brothers are eager to show their hands in front of His Majesty, but in the end they can't even drink the soup, compared to these people, the two of them It is much luckier.

When the two of them took orders, they were very unwilling. How could they escape Hou Junji's eyes? After they got out of the tent, the old Hou poured two cups of tea and handed Li Chengqian a cup. He shook his head and laughed and said, "Prince, what The two guys have been dazzled by their achievements, so don't blame them!"

"Okay, Mr. Lu, I'm not so stingy, I won't blame them! It's not that I don't trust the two of them. The two big bosses will inevitably neglect the delicate work of recovering stolen goods. Not only will they not be able to reap all their efforts, The credit for attacking the mountain will also be wiped out, the gain outweighs the loss!"

That being said, Hou Junji understood that Donggong had invested a lot of manpower and material resources in this case, even the son-in-law Captain-Changsun Chong was involved.Lao Liang and the others are afraid, but the East Palace can't be used as a wedding dress for nothing!If all the credit goes to someone else, then he won't be able to explain to the officials below!

"Yes, yes, Your Highness is merciful, and the old minister thanked His Highness for those two unsatisfactory things!" Both of them had been with Hou Junji, and the old Hou naturally couldn't let them stay in front of the prince because of Xiaoli. Otherwise, no matter how much credit you have made, it will be useless.

For example, Li Ji, his credit is great enough, his qualifications are rich enough, because of the betrayal of his mentor - Li Jing and the recruiting system, the prince has never waited to see him. He has been in Bingzhou for so many years, and it is impossible to transfer back!

When Laohou was young, he wanted to be an official. He killed people, set fire to him, and was punished. Everything was simple and brutal, and it happened naturally.But now the world has changed, if you want to be an official, if you want to live a peaceful life, then you have to rely on His Majesty, and you have to rely on the Crown Prince, otherwise it will be very difficult to hang around in Chang'an City.

In addition, Hou Junji did not think at all that Li Tai, Li Ke and other princes would have a chance to ascend to the throne, because he knew the emperor too well, and if he had a slight grudge against the prince, he would not hand over the military talisman to the prince under such circumstances In his hands, let him dispatch the garrison near Chang'an at will. .
