Transmigrating into a Turbulent Era as a Soldier, Starting with Marrying a Wife

The two state generals were also stunned.

They thought, this is not in accordance with the rules.

Even with the identity of a Commandant Adjutant, Li Yuan was several ranks below the state generals.

Leading the rear army was not justified.

How could this be convincing?

Li Yuan frowned upon hearing Marquis Longxiang's appointment.

If he were really to lead the two state generals with the identity of a participating Commandant,

It would not only dissatisfy the two state generals but also arouse suspicion among the soldiers of the two states.

Marquis Longxiang's actions were actually a bit reckless.

Li Yuan felt that this matter was inappropriate, so he immediately stepped forward and cupped his fist towards Marquis Longxiang.

"This subordinate is willing to assist the two generals in ambushing the enemy."

"Please, Marquis, retract the commandership."

At this time, Marquis Longxiang also felt that his appointment of Li Yuan as a commander was indeed a bit hasty.

He was thinking about how to turn things around.

General Han Mingdao of Dingzhou then cupped his fist and said.

"Marquis, Commandant Li is brave and good at fighting, truly a rare talent."

"This subordinate believes that the command of the rear can be jointly discussed by the three of us."

"I wonder what the Marquis thinks."

Han Mingdao's meaning was also very simple.

This Commandant Li is indeed a talent, but it is truly laughable for the two generals to be commanded by a Commandant.

If this spreads out, the two of us state generals probably won't be able to face anyone.

But we can give Li Yuan a position, where he can discuss matters with us on an equal footing.

The so-called joint discussion of the three means that each of the three has one vote.

When encountering major decisions, the minority obeys the majority.

Elevating a Commandant to the point of discussing matters with the two generals.

Marquis Longxiang thought that this idea was also suitable, so he nodded in agreement.

With the combat plan established, without delay, the entire army immediately began to move.

Seven thousand soldiers from Dingzhou and five thousand five hundred soldiers from Weizhou were withdrawn from the mountain ridge defense line overnight, totaling twelve thousand five hundred soldiers.

Marquis Longxiang personally led five thousand Longxiang troops, as well as eighteen thousand soldiers from Qingzhou and Huaizhou.

They took over the mountain ridge defense line vacated by the Dingzhou and Weizhou armies.

Fortunately, it was not yet dawn.

The Tiele people on the other side only knew that the Liang army was changing defenses overnight, but they could not see the movements clearly.

The Dingzhou and Weizhou armies joined forces and began marching overnight towards Cuisong Ridge at Hulu Pass, twenty miles away.

In the past few days, the Tiele people had not launched an attack.

The Liang army's physical strength was preserved quite well.

Otherwise, even this kind of overnight forced march would probably cause a large-scale desertion of soldiers.

Looking at the marching ranks, the two generals pulled Li Yuan to the temporary camp.

General Han Mingdao of Dingzhou saw that there was no one around, and said gently.

"I know that Commandant Li is capable. The Marquis sent you to be the commander of this ambush, and he must have already had a plan."

"Commandant Li, why don't you tell us, do you have a good idea for ambushing the Tiele detour troops?"

Li Yuan looked up and saw that General Chen Lian of Weizhou was also looking at him with anticipation.

"Yes, these days we all know in private that the Marquis' plans were all ideas given by Commandant Li."

"Being able to offer advice to kill several thousand Tiele people, Commandant Li must be a truly capable person."

"That's right, Commandant Li, if you have any ideas, be sure to give us your advice."

Li Yuan observed the expressions and confirmed that the two generals were sincerely discussing ways to defeat the enemy with him.

So he no longer hid anything.

Instead, he took out a stack of papers from his arms and distributed them to the two generals.

It was a written plan, in which all the subsequent arrangements were written clearly.

He even drew a detailed map, as well as the route and time for executing the plan.

The two generals took the papers in front of them and spent a full quarter of an hour to get a general idea of the entire plan.

After understanding Li Yuan's thoughts, the two generals couldn't help but take a deep breath.

If Li Yuan's plan could really succeed.

Then, as long as the two generals fully cooperated, the 30,000 Tiele soldiers invading Liang State this time might really be wiped out.

Thinking of this, the two looked up at each other very tacitly.

Their eyes were full of shock.

As generals of Great Liang.

It wasn't that the two didn't want to defeat the Tiele people, but they had never dared to think about it.

The Tiele people's illustrious martial achievements for decades had already frightened the Liang people.

For the invading Tiele army, their best expectation was to block them desperately and force the Tiele people to retreat.

They had never thought that there was another possibility.

That is, to annihilate all 30,000 Tiele soldiers here.

The two generals looked at Li Yuan with burning eyes.

The two couldn't help but ask.

"Commandant Li, how confident are you in your strategy?"

Li Yuan looked at the two solemn state generals and said calmly.

"If the two superiors are willing to fully assist me, this subordinate is 70% confident."

"To bury all the invading Tiele people in this Hulu Pass!"

The two generals looked at each other again, secretly pondering in their hearts.

Seventy percent?

Chen Lian was still stroking his beard and hesitating, while Han Mingdao on the side said loudly to Chen Lian.

"Old Chen, as generals, how can we be so indecisive?"

"If we can't stop the Tiele people in this Chishui River, the people of the four states will inevitably suffer."

"We will probably be dealt with by the imperial court. Instead of this, we might as well fight the Tiele people with all our might."

"To be honest, Old Chen, Commandant Li's plan is probably the only way to defeat the Tiele people."

"I think Commandant Li's method is worth a try."

Chen Lian's eyes flickered, as if making some decision.

Then he suddenly clapped his right palm.

"Okay, I'll do it. I'll bet my life with Commandant Li this time."

"I, Chen Lian, am willing to take the five thousand five hundred sons of Weizhou Prefecture and gamble my life with Commandant Li and the Tiele people."

"If we win, everyone will be ennobled and their sons will inherit their titles. If we lose, at worst, we old guys will die on the battlefield!"

Han Mingdao laughed heartily.

"Old Chen, you're right, let's work together and fight the Tiele barbarians this time!"

After saying that, the three men's hands were tightly clasped together.

Looking at the two heroic state generals, Li Yuan smiled.

These two state generals are not stupid. They have been in the military for a long time and have rich experience in battle.

This time, the Tiele people are coming fiercely, and they can't get through by guarding to the death.

If Li Yuan's plan really succeeds, it will definitely severely damage the Tiele people.

Since the two generals have already made up their minds, they immediately began to act according to Li Yuan's plan.

From Hulu Pass to the mountain path that the Tiele people must pass through to the Chishui River.

Tens of thousands of Great Liang soldiers carried various supplies through the dense forest, and under the leadership of their respective military fort commanders, began to deploy.
