At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 91 One More Choice
"Xiaguan Imperial City Secretary spied on Hu Feng and met two commanders."

Yu Wengang asked suspiciously: "Do you have proof?"

"How dare you bring proof when you are in the enemy's camp?" Hu Feng said with a smile: "The Imperial City Division has its own explanation for the command."

Yu Wengang said: "Regardless of your identity, it is a great achievement just to see you defecting in front of the battle. Let's go and identify the soldiers. We will postpone the rest for later."

Hu Feng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Commander. Yang Liu and I have been here for more than two months, and we are all familiar with each other. We will definitely not miss the next officer."

There is a story about Hu Feng being in Yuanying.

After failing to recruit Yang Jiejie, Hu Feng did not leave Lin'an, but continued to lurk. Later, he met Yang Liu by chance, took the risk to reveal his identity, and persuaded Yang Liu to join the Imperial City Division.

Then, the two were forcibly recruited into the army and became members of the new auxiliary army. Hu Feng became a centurion based on his ability, so he promoted Yang Liu to a ten-centurion.

Among the four strata of the Yuan army, the foreign soldiers headed by Mongolia had the highest status, followed by the Han soldiers in the north. The new vassals and civilians were all cannon fodder.

In half a month, 2000 civilians died in trench filling and siege, more than [-] new soldiers died, hundreds of Han soldiers in the north died, and only seven Yuan soldiers died. Therefore, the civilian camp would explode, and Hu Feng would dare to provoke the new soldiers. The army rebelled.

At noon, Lin Jingxi arrived with a thousand soldiers to help collect the prisoners and capture them.

A total of more than [-] people were killed, half of whom died of trampling and cannibalism, and the other half were Mongolian soldiers and northern Han soldiers.

More than [-] people were captured alive, including the new auxiliary troops gathered by Hu Feng, and the other [-] or so fled to various places.

Only a thousand stones of grain and grass were seized, more than 2000 sets of armor, and more than [-] weapons.

The Song army itself suffered more than a thousand casualties, most of which were killed by Timur's own troops, which shows the bravery of the Yuan army.

In the evening, they all withdrew into the city and detained the captured officers and soldiers separately. The three of them summoned Hu Feng to discuss what to do.

Hu Feng said: "They are all brothers, of course they will be incorporated into the army."

"It's inappropriate." Lin Jingxi said: "He and his family are all in Jiangbei, controlled by Yuanlu, so I'm afraid they don't dare to go into battle."

Zhu Huan said: "It is not appropriate to put him back. Yuanlu will not let him go easily, or he will be driven into battle again."

"It's equally inappropriate to serve as a coolie or to kill him. After all, he is against Yuan Lu and is considered half a colleague." Yu Wengang said.

Does Hu Feng have any good suggestions?He could only tentatively say, "Why don't you ask the communication center for countermeasures?"

That's all.

There was no pigeon shop in the city, so we first sent fast horses to Xinchang, and then released homing pigeons. When the pigeons fluttered to Wenzhou, it was already the next morning.

Since it was not an urgent military situation, the pigeon envoy received the letter and sent it to the Privy Council first. After Lu Xiufu read it, he went to find the emperor.

When they arrived at the school grounds, they saw Zhao Shi practicing martial arts.

Lu Xiufu walked over and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, good news for Shengxian County. Zhu Huan attacked Yuanying at night and defeated it. The siege of Shengxian County has been lifted."

"Okay!" Emperor Longyan was delighted and took the report.

Zhu Huan came out first, and Yu Wengang responded later. The mutiny in Minfu camp was expected, but Hu Fengfeng's rise was unexpected.

In any case, Yu Wengang used one thunderbolt, which was much less than planned.

Zhao Shi handed the battle report to Xie Li and said: "Suspend the training and gather the entire army."

"Wei." Xie Li responded.

Within a moment, the entire army was assembled.

"Soldiers." The little emperor held his head high and said, "We have good news from Shengxian County. Commander Zhu Huan led five hundred warriors to attack the enemy camp at night and defeated the Yuan captives. The captives fled."

"Mighty~"

"Mighty~ Mighty~ Mighty~"

With a shout, the whole army responded, and all the young people were excited.

"Of course, our army also suffered over a thousand casualties." Zhao Shi poured cold water on everyone and continued: "It is not only the Yuanlu who are brave, but also the lack of training of the King Master.

Therefore, you should study hard and practice hard, sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war.

I know that you are loyal and righteous and have no fear of life or death. However, I regard you as my humerus and hope that you will enjoy peace. "

"I have been taught and I will obey your Majesty's teachings." Xie Li took the lead in responding, and the other teenagers responded with "Long live your Majesty".

Bai said.At his young age, he has no concept of death, he only thinks that he can kill the enemy.

The emperor had no better idea and asked Xie Li to hold on to the small whip tightly.

Train more and develop your abilities so that you can naturally use them in battle.

After the instruction, Zhao Shi left for the new barracks.

On the way, Lu Xiufu mentioned the prisoners and said: "It is not worthwhile to imprison them, which is a waste of money and food. It is my will that those who are not defectors will be killed by soldiers who have committed many evil deeds as a warning to others, and the rest will be released."

Those who take the initiative to defect will be willing to die and stay. Those who are unwilling will be given money and food to return home. "

Perhaps because he was afraid that the emperor would not understand the deeper meaning, Lu Xiufu explained: "Since the Yuan Dynasty crossed the river, they have mostly used new auxiliary troops, which are far more numerous than their own troops.

Either due to livelihood or helplessness, the newly attached troops are not loyal and loyal. If they insist on force, they can only fight to the death. If there is a country and dynasty as a way out, there will be many people who turn against them. "

Zhao Shi nodded and said: "The public's words are very reasonable, so let's go to Shengxian County to handle it."

In the Song Dynasty, they were as timid as insects, but in the Yuan Dynasty, they were as fierce as tigers. This is the state of the newly attached troops.

Why?

The Yuan army had strict military laws, clear rewards and punishments, and sufficient logistics. It was much stronger than the previous Song Dynasty. However, the Yuan army was tyrannical and the status of the new vassals was too low. Everyone saw it, and many people were unhappy and dissatisfied.

It is not difficult to escape, but you will be hunted everywhere, and you will be hunted down even if you hide in the mountains. It is really better to stay in the army.

In the past, Song Ting ran all the way and could not be used as a shelter. Now he is better and can defect... It is not a defection, but a return, and he can return to the embrace of the imperial court.

After half a year, everyone saw that the small court of the Song Dynasty was able to compete with the Yuan Dynasty, but how could it not sustain it for decades like Lizong Duanzong.

Peng Zhenlong, who was accompanying the escort, asked: "Is this a soldier who subdues others without fighting?"

He came to the center to take up the post of commander of the bodyguards and troops. He also studied the art of war on weekdays, but there was no one to give him guidance. He was confused and confused, so he seized the opportunity to ask for advice.

"That's not the case." Zhao Shi smiled and said: "Although this is an attack on the heart, it only shakes his will and it is difficult to make him surrender without a fight.

However, this time the Yuan Dynasty troops are going south with all their strength. If the king's army wins and regains its prestige, then it will be possible for them to surrender without fighting. At that time, it can be said that they have defeated the enemy without fighting. "

"What your Majesty said is absolutely true." Lu Xiufu added: "Now that the Yuan Dynasty is strong and the Song Dynasty is weak, it has never been seen in ancient times that a strong force surrendered to a weak one.

As far as soldiers are concerned, the winner is strong and the loser is weak. Therefore, the court cannot retreat with new troops to meet the enemy. "

Peng Zhenlong nodded, thoughtfully.

Although he is Wen Tianxiang's brother-in-law, he was actually a prodigal when he was young. He even had his face tattooed for committing crimes and he didn't like reading the most.

When the world was in turmoil, he raised his troops. After suffering a defeat, he regretted it and worked hard to make amends.

"You have a strong desire to learn, but it is not suitable to read Sun Tzu. The general principles of martial arts are excellent. Those who want to be a commander must first become a general. If you read the general principles of martial arts, you can become a general." Peng Zhenlong and Zhao gave some advice. Then he looked at the guards on the left and right and said, "In your spare time, you should also study. Only in this way can you become a general."

"I will be taught." The left and right responded.

Of course Sun Tzu's Art of War is good, but most people can't understand it. Even Lu Xiufu only half understands it. He usually studies and discusses it with the little emperor.

The military classics are simple in general, covering everything from troop selection, logistics, training, offense, defense, etc. Maybe you can't become like Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, but there is absolutely no problem in being a satisfactory military commander.

When we arrived at the new barracks, we saw that all battalions were training.

Each battalion has an instructor, and there are ten instructors below. Half of the more than [-] soldiers who went south from Yangzhou were sent here to teach the new recruits basic formations, identify flags, recognize the sounds of whistles, gongs and drums, and practice spears, swords, shields, crossbows, etc.

After walking around and appeasing the whole army, Zhao Shi went to the recruiting office again.

After many recruitments, there were no people at the recruitment point at this time, and there was nothing to say.

Recruitment, training, and distribution of troops are a new system piloted by the Privy Council. The purpose is to prevent local generals from being overwhelmed and the story of Yue Fei from happening again.

Thinking about the fact that he has the people and money at his fingertips, and all his subordinates are his cronies, no boss will be at ease.

The new recruits will be assigned after being trained and educated by the center, and mid-level and low-level generals will be provided at the same time, which can effectively resolve suspicions and nip problems in the bud.

Of course, Jiang Wanzai, Jiang Qiu and others are currently recruiting troops locally, and the new system is far from being customized.
