Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 195: Pingxiang

On weekdays, Jia Rong was laughing and laughing, but when it came time to fight the enemy, Jia Rong immediately recovered his calm side. Sometimes Jia Rong suspected that he had a high talent in military affairs, and he was very concerned about how soldiers fought on the battlefield. Not only has a strong interest but also has the backing of advanced theoretical knowledge, it is all of these that make those Qiang soldiers who joined the Xiliang Army with Li Wenhou more and more admire their general.

In addition, Jia Rong has no official airs, and he walks very close to the soldiers on weekdays, and the problems among the soldiers can be solved very well. Jia Rong is not only their general, but also a good friend of them on weekdays. The soldiers even joked with Jia Rong in private, and the general situation of the Xiliang Army was tense and warm.

Jiang Yu and Li Wenhou are the spokespersons of the Qiang people in the Xiliang army. With the passage of time, Jiang Yu is no longer the Qiang general who only knows how to charge and kill. A brave and resourceful general guarding one side for Jia Rong is the envy of many Qiang generals.

When he was approaching, Jia Rong got off his horse, kindly helped Jiang Yu up, and said sincerely, "Brother Jiang, you have worked hard!"

Jiang Yu had a sore nose and almost shed tears, forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, and said: "For the sake of the general, even if I go through fire and water!" He felt that all the hard work was worth it after hearing Jia Rong's words.

Jia Rong helped Jiang Yu up again, and said with a smile, "Very good!"

"This is Mr. Jia Xu, the Chief Counselor of the Xiliang Army!"

Following the direction indicated by Jia Rong, Jiang Yu saw that thin figure again. Jiang Yu secretly rejoiced that the last time he saw this unremarkable middle-aged scribe, he made a big salute. People, imagine that with Jia Rong's respected status, he came to Pingxiang City to greet him not far away, could he be a simple person.

Jiang Yu didn't dare to be negligent, and hastily said: "Greetings, Master Military Advisor!"

Jia Xu didn't dare to push her too hard, so she helped Jiang Yu up and comforted her with kind words.

Most of the soldiers were stationed outside the city. Jia Rong led the cavalry and guards of Guo Si's tribe into Pingxiang City. , Jia Rong's prestige in Jincheng is like the sky, and the three hundred guards walking among the people and the cavalry of Guo Si's department raised their chests up, accepting the admiration of the people.

Many soldiers of Guo Si's tribe turned their heads to look at the soldiers of other tribes. The meaning of the unflattering expression was self-evident, and some Qiang soldiers stomped their feet.

After nearly half a year of Jiang Yu's management, Pingxiang City is no longer the small Pingxiang City of the past. Apart from the defect of not having a moat, the five-foot-high city wall is enough to deter the enemy. The archery tower overlooks the entire city of Pingxiang. During the war, they were like bunkers that threatened their lives.

Pingxiang City was built by Jiang Yu like a huge fortress.

Not only Jia Rong was satisfied, but the civil and military generals who followed behind nodded. The poverty of Pingxiang City in the past is obvious to all. The fact that Jiang Yu and Pingxiang County Magistrate were able to grow to where they are today shows that Jiang Yu is very hardworking.

Jiang Yu's calmness and sophistication won Jia Rong's attention. The Xiliang Army is brave and good at fighting. Relatively speaking, there are relatively few calm generals. All of them belong to the gunpowder barrel, and they will catch fire at one point. As long as the enemy provokes a little, they will scream Just rushed up.

Jia Rong taught the generals under his command more than once to keep a calm mind on the battlefield. Only a few generals can really do it. Due to their personalities, it is very difficult for them to change.

Jia Rong, who was walking among the soldiers, received the worshiping eyes of the people. Jia Rong also kept greeting the people on both sides of the road cordially. The people greeted by Jia Rong showed ecstatic expressions without exception, and the whole Pingxiang City was completely boiling. up.

The soldiers on both sides of the road in charge of organizing and ordering tried their best to maintain the order. The voices of the people were too loud, and their pressure doubled.

The journey from the city gate of Pingxiang to the county government office was full of glory and hardships, Jia Rong secretly decided that he would go into the city secretly in the future. ..

Han Sui got the news half a month ago that Jia Rong led an army of [-] to kill Hanyang County. The rebels had already made sufficient preparations and waited for half a month before this army came slowly. , according to the spies' report, Jia Rongjun did not intend to go to war immediately.

Fighting Jia Rongjun was the most troublesome thing for Han Sui. He had experienced the sophistication of this army as early as when he attacked Pingxiang City. Its cunning tactics, sturdy military force and the most annoying feeling of death momentum.

As the commander-in-chief of the rebel army, Han Sui also understood that he shouldn't give the enemy so much praise, but when facing Jia Rongjun, he always felt like a dog biting a hedgehog. People, now that the strength of the troops is equal, is this battle still worth fighting?

Jia Rong led the army to attack the rebels, and the mighty momentum is known all over the world. The shrewd businessman has long changed the route to Jincheng. Although the detour is relatively long, compared with the huge profits, this hard work is not worth it. I mentioned that the benefits provided by Jincheng Xianlian Pavilion are enough to make any businessman tempted. Jincheng has developed to the present, and has been able to allow businessmen to easily complete the business that used to need to travel to multiple counties, making it easier for businessmen to do business.

Naturally, the development of Jincheng did not escape Han Sui's eyes. With so many convoys passing through Hanyang County every day, coupled with the intelligence network of the rebels, Jincheng's wealth and strength made Han Sui unimaginable, with its strong financial resources and brave soldiers. , Han Sui felt that these so-called Qiang warriors behind him were not worth mentioning. Perhaps Jia Rong led the army and only needed to charge once to disperse this seemingly mighty army.

As the leader of the rebel army, Han Sui couldn't show it. The nervous Qiang generals couldn't detect the changes in Jincheng. Lou Shan was no fool. He suggested to Han Sui many times that Yan Liang be sent to Jincheng again in order to avoid Zhan Luan, Han Sui rationally refused.

Because Jia Rong's momentum is so great that everyone knows it, this war is inevitable. With Han Sui's mind, Jia Rong's small thoughts can naturally be guessed at sevens and eights, but Han Sui So he was very reconciled, thinking that in his wise life, he would have fallen into a situation where he was a fish and others were a knife.

I think back then that the 10-strong army was mighty, and the three assistants of the Art of War were so courageous. In less than half a year, the original 3000-man army dropped sharply to an army of more than [-]. Jia Rong, who used to have more than [-] horses, became a party Sir, this war has actually made Jia Rong, Han Sui has a feeling that he made a wedding dress for Jia Rong, and it is a stepping stone for Jia Rong to go to a higher place.

On the third day after the Xiliang army arrived in Pingxiang City, Han Sui received a letter from the envoy of Jincheng, the content of which was naturally an appointment to fight at a time and place.

In Jia Rong's view, such behavior is undoubtedly very stupid, and I don't know why the ancients liked this kind of battle mode. Wouldn't it be nice to send troops to sneak attack? I agree, if he were Han Sui, he would definitely not go out of the city to fight. I really don’t understand what Han Sui was thinking. Jia Xu coaxed him out of the city with a few words. It seems that he will have to teach his generals more in the future. Go out of the city and fight the enemy.

Three days later, the two armies faced off in an open space about a hundred miles away from Pingxiang City. The battlefield had already been cleaned up. Standing on a high place, the entire battlefield could be seen at a glance. There would be no ambush at all, it was completely one-on-one During the battle, Jia Rong visually observed that this battlefield is enough for tens of thousands of people to fight.

After the two armies rested for a day, Jia Rong immediately called together the generals to discuss.

Jia Rong sat on the first seat, and said with a serious face: "Now the rebel army is stationed five miles away from our army, and the cavalry will arrive in a short time."

"At such an extraordinary moment, the generals of all ministries must cheer up. Any general who dares to make a mistake at this juncture will not be taken lightly!"

The generals couldn't help shivering, Jia Rong's resolute tone tightened the heartstrings of the soldiers in the tent.

"In the opinion of a military advisor, what should we do?" Jia Rong asked in a different tone.

Jia Xu stroked his sparse beard, pondered for a moment and said slowly: "At this moment, we should dampen the enemy's morale first, so that they don't dare to underestimate our army, so that they dare not make any changes!"

Jia Rong praised: "Wen He's words are exactly what I want. I don't know which general dares to lead an army to fight against the rebels!"

Before the words were finished, seven generals from various ministries who had just been sitting upright stood up and asked for a fight one after another.

Jia Rong said solemnly: "This battle is the first battle between our army and the rebels. We must fight well so that the rebels can see the bravery of the Xiliang army!"

Hua Xiong shouted loudly: "Let me go, the old man Han Sui who promised to kill will cry for his father and mother, and let the rebels see the Xiliang army crawling away."

Jiang Yu snorted coldly and said, "Really, General Hua, why don't we have a contest between the two of us?" When it came to credit, Jiang Yu didn't back down at all, not to mention Jiang Yu's popularity among the Qiang people is very high now, Nature cannot show weakness.

Hua Xiong shouted: "Okay, I'm itching, I don't mind going to fight the rebels after you are dealt with!"

Jia Rong stopped and said, "What are you doing? This enemy hasn't fought yet, but our own people have started fighting. Let's see what the military adviser says?"

The seven generals immediately turned their attention to Jia Xu. They hated themselves for not having a good relationship with Jia Xu, otherwise the position would surely fall to themselves. Xu Huang's face showed an excited expression.

Jia Xu's eyes swept over the seven generals one by one. Zhang Xiu, Jiang Yu, Guo Si, and Xu Huang were calm and courageous, while Hua Xiong and Li Huyong were brave but lacked enough calmness. He is the commander of the camp, and his own strength is not very good. The battle this time is about the bravery of the general.

On the contrary, Xu Huang gradually wore away his original pride and vigor after being polished in the Xiliang Army. He looked calm and old-fashioned, and Xu Huang was regarded as Jia Xu's direct descendant, who was personally recommended by Jia Xu to the Xiliang Army.

However, Xu Huang's popularity in the Xiliang army is not high, and he has not made any achievements, so it is difficult to convince the crowd by sending him to fight.

It is not easy to update the cliff, no matter how much effort you put in, it is worth it. I declare in advance that this book is not a buyout, but it will not be a eunuch!
