Comprehensive martial arts: Summon the thunder and lightning general, I will rule the world

Training soldiers is difficult, especially if you want to build a strong army, it is even more difficult.

It's not just about having money and spending it.

First of all, you need a good general and commander to be responsible for training the troops. Otherwise, even if you spend money, it will be of no use.

Secondly, the source of soldiers also needs attention.

In many places, soldiers are relatively docile, while in some places, they are more aggressive.

After all, not everyone in every place is good at using a knife to kill people.

This is murder, isn't everyone good at killing?
At the same time, there were various equipment problems. The Song State did have excellent commanders. For example, Yue Fei's Yue Family Army was an army that could be ranked among the best in history, and in terms of military discipline, it was first-class.

But how many people can do what Yue Fei did?
Moreover, Zhao Kuangyin himself did not truly trust Yue Fei even until now.

Zhu Houzhao was very aware of this point, and the intelligence he had included a lot of information about Yue Fei's army.

According to the intelligence from Zhu Houzhao, Yue Fei's army had very limited food and other supplies.

Although it is better than ordinary troops, its contribution is much smaller than that made by Yue Fei.

The most crucial thing is that Zhao Kuangyin is still restricting Yue Fei's material needs. In other words, Zhao Kuangyin wants to control Yue Fei through logistical means. If Yue Fei does not obey, then unless Yue Fei directly defected to Wu Qi, otherwise, there will definitely be problems with logistics, and he will starve to death.

Of course, Zhao Kuangyin was not a completely inhumane person. He just didn't allocate a lot of supplies to Yue Fei each time, but there was no problem with the frequency.

In other words, although Zhao Kuangyin gave not much each time, there was no problem with the overall supplies.

However, it also completely eliminated the possibility of Yue Fei's independence.

After all, Zhao Kuangyin himself started out as a military general who rebelled. It wasn't even Zhao Kuangyin who really committed treason, but simply put on the yellow robe.

This is also what Zhao Kuangyin cares about most. Even now when the Song Dynasty may be destroyed at any time, Zhao Kuangyin is still worried about Yue Fei.

"Funny! Stupid! What a pity for Yue Fei!" Wu Qi knew exactly the situation that Yue Fei needed to face now.

After all, he was the one who confronted Yue Fei. If he couldn't even investigate these things, then Wu Qi would be unworthy of his reputation.

At first, Wu Qi thought it was Yue Fei's trick to lure him into attacking the other side. At that time, Wu Qi was even a little angry, thinking that Yue Fei was looking down on him. How could he not see through such a simple trick?
You have to know that he is Wu Qi. When he was leading his troops to fight, not to mention Yue Fei, even whether Yue Fei's great-great-grandfather was born was a problem.

But later, after continuous investigation, Wu Qi began to feel pity for Yue Fei. It turned out that Zhao Kuangyin was afraid of Yue Fei!
On the one hand, he wanted Yue Fei to fight, and on the other hand, he needed to be wary of Yue Fei and prevent him from becoming too powerful. Compared with his own side, Zhu Houzhao generally gave him whatever he wanted.

The gap between the two emperors is simply a world of difference!!
Wu Qi was also glad that he was on Zhu Houzhao's side. If he had gone to Zhao Kuangyin's side, he might not have thought about leading troops to fight and how to win, but would have wanted to kill Zhao Kuangyin. Damn, such an emperor is really abominable!
He did have a good emperor on his side, and Wu Qi even believed that Zhu Houzhao was definitely the best emperor he knew.

Yue Fei himself was a very good general, otherwise, the so-called Yue Family Army would have been destroyed by Wu Qi long ago.

Moreover, even if there was a shortage of food and supplies, Yue Fei had already selected a location. This meant that although Wu Qi wanted to encircle and suppress the grain transport troops, he was somewhat powerless.

After all, this time, the number of troops brought by Yue Fei was not much more than that of Yue Fei. If a head-on battle were to take place, no matter how arrogant Wu Qi was, he believed that he might have to pay a considerable price to completely defeat Yue Fei.

Perhaps Yue Fei himself was prepared for this.

Even if his own army was completely destroyed, he had to bite off a piece of meat from Wu Qi and prevent Wu Qi from continuing to lead his troops to attack the Southern Song Dynasty.

This was also Yue Fei's strategic goal. Although Wu Qi was confident that he could destroy this army, if he did so, he would also be considered a failure.

After all, Yue Fei accomplished his strategic goal, so wouldn't he, as a general, be a waste?
There is no way around it, since many of the troops he had previously arranged are now needed to reorganize the Northern Song Dynasty region.

After dividing the troops along the way, Wu Qi now has less than 20 troops available.

It would be difficult to completely defeat Yue Fei with this 20-man army.

Although Wu Qi was arrogant, as a commander he also recognized Yue Fei very much, and he was very much like himself when he was young.

It's a pity that Yue Fei is on the side of the Song Dynasty!
Moreover, judging from Yue Fei's appearance, it is impossible for him to betray the Song Dynasty or even join the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, Wu Qi really wanted to introduce Yue Fei to Zhu Houzhao, and he even wanted to bring Yue Fei to his side to teach him.

This boy is so talented!
Just like when I was young.

Even now, Wu Qi still admires Yue Fei's talent.

As a general, Wu Qi did not need to show any mercy to Yue Fei at this time, but needed to use his strongest strength to give Yue Fei a perfect exit!
This is what a general desires!
It's just a corpse wrapped in horsehide!
If one day in the future he met an opponent whom he could not defeat, Wu Qi would also hope that the two sides could have a real battle, and then he would be defeated like a hero.

This is the greatest respect for the general!
At this moment, facing Yue Fei, Wu Qi also thought the same way.

"Where is the army behind?" Wu Qi asked Yu Jin beside him.

Wu Qi was quite satisfied with Yu Jin. Although Yu Jin did not have the qualities to become a top-notch general, he was rigorous and diligent in his work, and many trivial matters could be left to Yu Jin to handle.

This is a general who won't give you too many surprises, but can clearly arrange all the things you don't want to care about in the details!
In Wu Qi's opinion, Yu Jin is absolutely a perfect candidate for the second-in-command. (End of this chapter)
