I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 147 Battle with the State ([-])

Lu Qing's abacus was crackling, so loud that Shang Jingdu could almost hear it.

It cannot be said that Lu Qing's calculation was wrong, after all, the various factors he analyzed are relatively reliable.

Whether it is a civil servant or a military general, as long as it is an official of the imperial court, the impression of the forbidden army is corrupt.

But if they were asked to talk about the three major yamen of the imperial army, the nine palace commanders, the commanders of the 36 guards, and the specific situation of the 36 guards, I am afraid that even the Minister of the Ministry of War would not be able to say anything.

But if you ask Feng Shenji who is far away in Hedong, Li Shizhong who has led his army to Xuanzhou, Fu Maoxiu who has just returned from victory, and Wang Bin who is in Yanzhou, these few nobles can say roughly the same.

And Lu Qingzai started in the frontier army, and had never served in the imperial army, so naturally he didn't know how deep the imperial army was.

There are a total of 36 guards in the imperial army, but in fact there are still a few guards who can be regarded as well-trained.Among them is the martial arts Zhongwei.

Wugong Zhongwei and Wugong Left Guard and Wugong Right Guard are also named because the three guards were stationed in Guanzhong when Xijing was the capital.

Unlike other guards who recruit people from Gyeonggi Province and Shangjing, Wugong Weili only recruits athletes from Guanzhong.Therefore, in terms of soldiers, the soldiers of Wugongwei are better than other imperial guards.

And Du You was one of the rare ones in the Forbidden Army who could earn money without delaying military training.

There should have been five martial arts Zhongwei, but he directly reduced them to four, three infantry and one cavalry.Among them, the cavalry is only 4000% of the full number.A full meal of nearly [-] people.

Of the 4000 men, more than half of his own was paid, and the rest were from generals and schools at all levels, and the rest of the soldiers could also have enough food and wages, and even occasionally some rewards.

This makes the soldiers enthusiastic about daily training.

So in fact, this martial arts Zhongwei, which is mainly composed of Guanzhong sergeants, is already a rare elite in the Forbidden Army, although most of them have never fought
On the third day after Fu Jinchuan received the Hezhou Army report, he led the Anguo Army from the two capitals, and his own [-] Yabing soldiers set off from Wujiang.

Then, as planned, he joined the Forbidden Army Wugong Zhongwei ten miles northwest of Hezhou City.

Among them, there is a dissatisfied cavalry force of the imperial army, with 800 people, and the Yabing cavalry army under Fu Jinchuan's command has 500 people.

The rest are all infantry, the imperial army has three martial arts central guards, and the Anguo army has two capitals, totaling 1 people.

After adding auxiliary soldiers and supply soldiers, the whole army has a total of more than [-] people.

In the past few days, the rebels have continued to attack, and there have been nearly [-] casualties before and after.Under the continuous offensive of the rebels, the defenders also lost nearly [-] troops.

So when they saw the reinforcements coming, they cheered directly on the city wall, especially after seeing the banner of the governor.

The officers and soldiers rushed to the outside of the city in an orderly manner, and camped five miles north of Hezhou City, forming a corner with Hezhou.

After the rebel army saw the three thousand cavalry guarding the perimeter, they did not take advantage of the official army's unstable foothold to launch a surprise attack.

First of all, whether it is Wujiang or Hanshan, they are not far from Hezhou City, and the officers and soldiers are far from exhausted.

Prior to this, Fu Jinchuan even wanted to gather all the cavalry to rush forward and raid the rebels who were attacking the city.However, when they were marching, they received a report from the scouts on the front line, saying that the rebels had a very large number of scouts.The idea of ​​a surprise attack was immediately denied by himself.

The so-called surprise attack must be sudden, otherwise thousands of cavalry from Fu Jinchuan will rush over, and the enemy's horse scouts will find out the news, and the rebels will be waiting in full force below the city.

Even three thousand armored cavalry would not dare to do this!
So Fu Jinchuan, who has always liked to send out surprise soldiers, chose to fight steadily, with each unit marching alternately, with cavalry guarding on both wings, and doing everything that should be done during the march extremely solidly.

So when a group of rebel generals accompanied the King of Wu to board the building, Lu Qing seemed a little embarrassed, as if it was different from what he said.
King Wu looked at the army camp several miles away, and his heart became more worried.

However, he still agreed to Wang Bing and Lu Qing's challenge.

Wang Bing was in charge of the front, and Lu Qing was in charge of commanding the entire army.

There was no way around this. Although the four generals had their own abilities, Lu Qing, who was born in the frontier army, was undoubtedly the one who knew the officers and soldiers better and had more experience in commanding operations.

As for King Wu himself, he was never good at military affairs, let alone commanding an army to fight in person.

Even if some people have been in the army all their lives and are familiar with military affairs, they can't be regarded as real generals.

Just like Wu Wang Zhao Deyu, he has a wide range of knowledge and knowledge, can also participate in the organization and dispatch of the army, and he has a decent way of giving orders on weekdays.

But at the critical moment when the two armies are confronting each other, he lacks a keen insight into the fighter planes, and at the same time, he cannot make the most correct decision in the slightest.

Of course Zhao Deyu knew this, so he directly handed over the command of the war to the former Hangzhou Sima Lu Qing who was born as a frontier general.

Fu Jinchuan was not idle either.When the army was camping, he, Du You, Tan Hui, Zhang Gao, Wang Zuoqiu, Xie Anchi, Xu Yinglong and others climbed to a high ground to look at the rebel camp.

"Sure enough, northerners are more comfortable with saddle horses, and southerners are more convenient with boats. Standing on the back of the big river, you have the advantage of boats and boats, so you can advance and retreat freely. But Wu Ni is a bit less heroic."

Fu Jinchuan's comments may seem to be praises, but they are actually full of contempt for the rebellious clan by the nobles of the court.It is not uncommon for everyone to hear it, except for Xie Anchi, who has a different look on his face. He sounds like he is satirizing the southerners.
However, the dispute between the North and the South has been going on for a long time, and this is normal.

But Fu Jinchuan's original intention was actually to say that the king of Wu, Zhao Deyu, Du Teniang's rebellion, would he leave a way out for himself?The camp is directly by the river, and the camp should be a camp of 3 to [-] people.That means the rest of the people are still on board.

Just looking at this point, Fu Jinchuan felt that the other party could not accomplish anything.

If you want to win, you are afraid of losing, and you think too much.

They have all rebelled, so what are you waiting for if you don't come to the bottom of the boat at this time?

"I look at the rebel camp, but there are some methods. The governor should not underestimate the enemy."

Du You, the commander of the martial arts Zhongwei, advised him.

"General Du, don't worry, the governor once went to Runzhou to observe the enemy's situation in person, and he did."

"cough"

But it turned out that Fu Jinchuan didn't speak. As an aide, Wang Zuoqiu wanted to explain for the governor, but he almost told about Baiqi's robbing of the camp.

Fortunately, Xu Yinglong coughed in time, allowing Wang Zuoqiu to swallow the rest of the words.

After hearing this, Du You tied his hands and said, "It's the last general, Meng Lang."

Fu Jinchuan said with a smile: "We are all a family. General Du can be regarded as half of my elders. Why are you so polite?"

As soon as these words came out, Du You was quite flattered, and said with a smile: "The governor is serious, I dare not be the governor."

Speaking of age, Du You is in his forties, which is enough to be Fu Jinchuan's elder.But is it so easy to be an elder?

To say that he is half an elder is already giving face.

Du You is a native of Guanzhong. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child. When he was a soldier in Guanzhong, he participated in the battle against Gaochang with the old Yinggong. The personal guard, and later taught him the art of war and the way to manage the army, and recommended him as an official.

According to the master-slave relationship, he is undoubtedly a member of the Duke's mansion, and Fu Jinchuan, the direct descendant of the Duke's mansion, is his half benefactor.

But Fu Jinchuan never mentioned the old Duke's kindness to him, instead he said that he was "half an elder", and this face has been given to the sky.

Now let Du You take a big knife and kill Wu Wang's entire army alone, he won't even say a word!
"Brother Xu, you are a gifted scholar in Shangjing. You are excellent in both poetry and prose. You can go back and write a call to action, or a letter of war. It is best to let the king of Wu get frustrated and take the initiative to attack."

Xu Yinglong nodded and said, "No."

Fu Jinchuan's idea is actually very simple, set up a camp and attract the enemy to attack.

However, Zhao Deyu, an old fox, laughed out loud after reading the essay written by Xu Erlang, a talented scholar in Shangjing.

Then the commander-in-chief, Gu Xianglin, also wrote a letter, but it was to persuade him to surrender.Then excerpted many orders and the archers shot into the official army camp.

The letter said that Marshal Fu Jinchuan cherished Fu Jinchuan's bravery, and as long as he helped Wu Wang Qingjun "anyway", he would be allowed to inherit the title of British Duke and continue his family. He also bypassed his father Fu Maoxiu's life.hope he doesn't hold back
"Ha ha ha ha."

Fu Jinchuan laughed out loud after reading the letter, and said, "I don't know what wishful thinking is now, he, Wu Ni, actually thinks he can win."

After joking, the young warrior finally showed his long-lost glory.

"Beat the drums, gather the generals."
