Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 675
"The second army is stationed in Xincheng, the third army is stationed in Liaodong, and the fourth army is stationed in Lushun."

With the four cities as the center, each of them is connected to the surrounding military towns, garrisons, military stations, and Fengdun, where soldiers and horses are stationed for training.

"Station Huaiyuan with soldiers on the west bank of the Liao River, and town west and north of Liaoning. Use soldiers from the surrounding area of ​​Liaodong to station in Liaodong City..."

In this way, the original distribution of the Zhongwu Army to the six counties will be broken, and the towns and castles will be readjusted. For some towns that are already in the belly, they can be downgraded and the garrisons can be reduced. For border areas, the level of towns and castles can be upgraded. Send more troops.

Generally speaking, the First Army stationed in Huaiyuan was responsible for guarding the front line of the Liaohe River.

The second army stationed in Xincheng is responsible for guarding the front line of the Xiaoliao River, that is, the Hun River Basin.

The third army was stationed in Liaodong and was responsible for guarding the Daliang River, namely the Taizi River Basin.

The Fourth Army was stationed in Lushun and was responsible for the coastal line in southern Liaoning.

The strategic support points of the Fourth Army are Huaiyuan City, Xincheng City, Liaodong City and Lushun City.

Under the four major cities, six major cities in dangerous places were selected as military towns, and each sent a group of soldiers and horses to garrison them separately.

In this way, it is tantamount to dividing the entire Andong Road into four war zones, with six military divisions under each war zone.

An army corresponds to a war zone, and a box corresponds to a military division.

For the heartland cities such as Liucheng, Luhe, Jian'an, and Yingkou, although they are large, they are very prosperous and have a large population. They are located on commercial roads or seaports, but they don't need to send too many troops to garrison them.

The main government and county soldiers should still be stationed on the border and guard every important channel and pass.As for the big cities like Jian'an and Liucheng, it is enough to garrison a small number of soldiers and horses, and it is enough to support the defense with native soldiers.

After all, when it comes to fighting, it is still an outside battle, and the enemy will not be allowed to break through to the rear.

Luo Cheng nodded.

I am very satisfied with Li Jing's strategic deployment.

"Then we will re-adjust and divide the affiliation of these prefectural and county soldiers according to your plan, Pharmacist."

"Yes, it is better to be under the principle of garrison on the spot, which is more convenient."

For example, if Zhang San is in the west of Liaoning, then he can be assigned to the First Army. If he happens to be under the city of Huaiyuan, then he can be assigned to the Yabing Zhongjun of the First Army, or to Tongding Army Town near the left. Or go to the nearby military fort, or military post, military station, or military pier.

In this way, it is more convenient to belong to, live in, and garrison nearby.

For another example, if Zhang San is only the team leader and he is assigned a pier, then he can also serve as the pier leader.If he is a fire chief, then if he is in a military station, he can also serve as the station chief.

In short, it is to try to keep soldiers stationed as close as possible, the closer the better.

"Okay, after the summer harvest, let's quickly start this round of reorganization and adjustment. After the autumn harvest, we can try our hand at Fuyuchuan." Luo Cheng stroked his chin.

Since Luo Cheng forced the Yuan family to surrender, he has not fought the Goguryeo people for more than two years.

Now the Central Plains is in chaos, but Andong Road is thriving. After more than two years of farming, the Zhongwu Army not only has enough food, but also has enough horses. Now the Zhongwu Army still has 5 people in name, but it has actually doubled its number of troops.

He even has a strong combat readiness force, and can recruit no less than 10 native soldiers to help in the battle at any time.

After accumulating strength for so long, it's time to start the battle again.

The first target, Luo Cheng aimed at Fuyuchuan.

Buyeochuan used to be the seat of the ancient country of Buyeo, which is the central hinterland of the Songliao Plain.To be more specific, Fuyuchuan is located in the Songhua River basin, to be precise, it is the Songhua River flowing westward, and it is also called Sumo River at this time.

In Fuyu River, there is not only Fuyu City, the important city of Goguryeo, but also more than forty cities around it, with a population of no less than one million.For Luo Cheng, Fuyuchuan was actually cut off from the inner city of the Yuan family by Luo Cheng, and was isolated in the north.

Therefore, there are actually very good conditions for winning Fuyuchuan.

This is much easier than directly attacking the country, and after winning, there will be great gains.Not to mention, after taking Buyeochuan, the threat to the north of Andong Road can be removed from now on.

In the future, Luo Cheng can safely attack Yuan's eastward without any worries.

Li Jing, the prefect of Liucheng, also fully approves of Luo Cheng's plan to capture Fuyuchuan.In Li Jing's view, it is absolutely correct to attack Fuyu City first instead of directly attacking the domestic city.

After all, the Yuan family still has 10,000+ soldiers and horses in their hands, and in the direction of the domestic city, although the tunnels have been opened, there are all large and small mountain cities along the way, not to mention the black bone, and the domestic cities are very dangerous and huge, easy to defend and difficult to attack .

It would be better to cut off Fuyu's arm first, which can not only severely injure the Yuan family, but also relieve the worries of the future, and also win a million people to strengthen the strength of the loyal army.

"Pharmacist, if Fuyuchuan is attacked, Huaiyuan's first army and Xincheng's second army will be the main force. You are the prefect of Liucheng, so I would like to invite you to be the envoy of the first army. Please do not decline."

Luo Cheng never doubted Li Jing's ability, and in Mayi, he also personally witnessed his ability to command troops and plan.

Li Jing was very surprised, he had just been transferred to Andong Dao, he was considered a rookie in the Zhongwu Army.But Luo Cheng gave him such an important position as the first army envoy as soon as he came, how could he not be surprised.

This is 4000 people, a quarter of the property of the Zhongwu Army.

Li Jing is about the same age as the current emperor, almost 50 years old. He was a guard in front of the palace with Luo Cheng's father Luo Gui, but he was still so excited that he didn't know how to speak.

"You don't need to say anything, just bring the first army up for me, and when you fight Fu Yuchuan after autumn, just don't have diarrhea."

Li Jing laughed.

"Don't worry about this, if the first army is not well led by then, commander, you will directly chop off my head and play as a ball."

Li Jing was appointed as the envoy of the first army, but Luo Cheng, the envoy of the remaining three armies, was a little embarrassed. There were many strong generals under his command, but the envoy of the first army wanted to control one side alone.

"Pharmacist, do you think it is possible for Luo Cunxiao to be the envoy of the Fourth Army, Zhao Gui to be the envoy of the Second Army, and General Feng Xiaoci to be the envoy of the Third Army?"

Li Jing replied, "Actually, the commander-in-chief can also join the unified army!"

"Let's forget it. I'm the Jiedu envoy, and I can command four thousand soldiers. As for the fourth army, I'll leave it to other people." Luo Cheng had no intention of serving as an envoy of the first army.

"In terms of seniority, General Zhao Gui and General Cunxiao are both good enough to be the leaders of an army. Of course, the performance of the two generals in the past is also good enough." Li Jingdao, in his opinion, there are many strong generals under Luo Cheng's command, But there are not many really handsome talents, needless to say Luo Cheng, Hou Mo and Chen Yi are also counted as one.

As for others, such as Luo Shixin, he is a fierce general who charges into the battle, and Murong Changsheng, Yu Chiliang, Qin Qiong, Shan Xiongxin, etc. are also probably the same.

"I also know that Cun Xiao is not the best candidate. In fact, I am more optimistic about Xu Shiji and Xue Wanche. They are more handsome and talented, but their qualifications are inferior and their prestige is not enough." Luo Chengdao.

"The commander-in-chief can make them deputy army officers to assist Cun Xiao and General Zhao Gui in commanding an army."

"Haha, the hero sees the same thing, and that's exactly what I mean."

So it was immediately decided that Li Jing would be the envoy of the First Army, and Zhou Dewei would be the deputy envoy.

Zhao Gui served as the envoy of the Second Army, and Xue Wanche was his deputy envoy.

Feng Xiaoci served as the envoy of the Third Army, and Murong Changsheng served as its deputy envoy.

Luo Cunxiao served as the envoy of the Fourth Army, and Xu Shiji served as its deputy envoy.

Qin Qiong was also elected to succeed Murong Changsheng as the horse envoy of the Duab Yabing, commanding the Yabing of the Zhongwu Army and serving as the cavalry envoy of the Yabing [-] light cavalry.Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji were appointed as commanders of Ya Nei to assist Qin Qiong, and each led a regiment of white horses and light cavalry.
