Chapter 110 Strategic Defiance

The general is the general.

There are not so many rules in this era, even when soldiers at the lower level meet the team leader, they are also called "Dangshuai" or general.

The title "Lang Jun" does lack some majesty...

Li Chengzhi turned his thoughts, his eyes swept down subconsciously.

Most of them were generals, and only five or six unarmored gentry sat in the left corner, among them were Guo Cunxin and Song Lishen.

But the strange thing is that there is one who is more unfamiliar, but is in the head of Guo Cunxin?

Li Chengzhi's heart moved, and he had some guesses: This should be his uncle's brother-in-law, Zhang Jingzhi, the former Sima of Zhenbei General's Mansion.

Uncle's movements are not slow, and he invited you when he said please?
Exactly...

It doesn't matter whether he is an official or not, he is an elder anyway.Li Chengzhi didn't dare to neglect, stood up again and made a bow.

He was not rude, and bowed to him.

This interruption almost forgot the wording that he had thought up. Li Chengzhi simply didn't talk nonsense, rolled his eyes and said:

"According to Tangqi's report, there are a large group of thieves coming from Jingzhou, about [-]. Although there are many people, there are also many miscellaneous riders and vehicles, but the flags and battles are messy and the armor is poor. There are still many of them. The old farmer carrying a hoe is no different from the thieves who looted outside the city [-] years ago..."

Hearing him lie without blinking, Li Shijing's jaw almost couldn't close.

As soon as Lang Jun opened his mouth, he more than halved the number of enemy troops?

What farmer, hoe?
The enemies and thieves are all young and strong, and the worst ones carry guns, and most of them are well-armored...

No wonder Mr. Lang gave himself such a stern warning before entering the account?
Actually used the trick of suspicion on his own head?

Inadvertently noticing Li Shi's strange look, Li Chengzhi gave him a hard look.

This is the first battle of the new army after becoming an army. In order to win, of course, it is necessary to arouse the enthusiasm of the generals and soldiers as much as possible.

Didn't deliberately make the enemy weaker, could it be that they were praised as gods and demons?
This is to despise the opponent strategically...

In fact, according to the habit at this time, Li Chengzhi should invite someone to set up an altar to do divination, make some arrangements by the way, and reveal some good omens to stabilize the morale of the army.

But one is too hasty and the time is too late.The second is that he always feels that this thing is a double-edged sword, and if he doesn't play it well, he will backfire.

What he wants is a soldier of faith, not a soldier of superstition...

"This group of bandits marched until dusk and stationed at the mouth of the Honghe River, more than [-] miles northwest of Jingyang City. They will enter the country at noon tomorrow at most..."

Li Chengzhi paused intentionally, then glanced around again before saying: "Now there are more than four thousand battle-ready soldiers in the camp, over a thousand horses, no armor, guns and knives, and even more than a thousand strong bows. I'm afraid of this gang of thieves... I invite you all to come here, just to ask, is there anyone who is timid?"

There was a "buzz" sound in the tent.

Not a yell, but a gasp.

And all of them seemed to be angry, staring at Li Chengzhi with burning eyes.

Haven't you met before?
Last time there were more than two thousand civilians who were rebellious and coerced, so what was the result?

Li Chengzhi's question is a bit insulting, it means that I wiped out so many thieves last time with only [-] new recruits, and now our military strength has more than doubled by ten times, so I ask you if you dare to fight?

Who is not angry?

I don't know who took the lead, but there was a noise of clattering, and they knelt down on the ground, and then shouted in unison: "The last general invites you to fight!"

Sure enough, the military spirit is available...

"it is good!"

Li Chengzhi nodded in satisfaction, and began to order without haste: "Li Liang, order the forging camp to shut down, and lead all the children to distribute swords, guns, armor, bows, shields and arrows... After the camp is pulled out, you will also be responsible for the food and supplies... Remember carefully, don't make mistakes!"

"promise!"

Li Liang responded heavily, and immediately spread out the pen and paper, and at the same time sighed in his heart: It seems that this time we won't be able to win a battle...

"Armor ordnance" is the most important secret of the Li family. It was originally in charge of the fourth uncle, but why is the fourth uncle not around?
"Li Hui, Li Xiaoxian, Li Xiaoyan, Li Zhonghe, and Zhang Xingyi each lead their cavalry...Each cavalry is equipped with two horses. The horses are all armored, the pack horses are half armored, and the cavalry is full armor. They are also equipped with a lance and a saber. handle, a pair of square shields, a short bow, and two hundred arrows..."

The more the generals below heard, the more they felt that something was wrong, and the more they listened, the more jealous they became.

The imperial court's tiger riders don't have such equipment, do they?

At least I haven't heard that it is equipped with a saber and a square shield...

Looking at the five cavalry leaders again, except for Zhang Xingyi who looked shocked, the remaining four veterans of the Li family were there, as if they had known this would happen a long time ago, and the generals were even more surprised: How could the Li family be so powerful? money?

This is no ordinary saber.

If it was the fine steel horizontal knife worn by all officers, it could be exchanged for twenty or thirty stones...

Li Chengzhi didn't have time to pay attention to it, and continued to give orders: "Li Yongshou, Li Zhongyi, Li Xiaozhang, Li Rong, Song Shihe, Huangfurang... you and ten people will each be the infantry of the team, and everyone will wear full armor...

Each spearman is equipped with a spear five feet in length, a pair of square shields, and a horizontal knife.Archers are equipped with one hundred arrows, not spears, but swords and shields... Each team is equipped with twenty carriages.

Li Liang, Song Lishen, infantry, armaments, food and supplies, etc., will be transported by you two with two brigades of auxiliary soldiers, and the auxiliary soldiers are only equipped with wooden armor and long spears..."

This thousand heavy steps was carefully selected by Li Chengzhi from the recruited people. They are relatively stronger, and they can carry at least fifty kilograms of equipment on their backs, and they can fight battles.

And it's not like wearing armor when you leave the camp. In order to save energy, there are cars throughout the march... That's what the twenty horse-drawn carriages are for...

The generals also reacted: except for the lack of horses, the equipment of the infantry is no different from that of the cavalry?
No wonder there are daily drills, from time to time there are trainings such as squatting down and holding the shield to cover the head, or dropping the gun, and then hacking with the shield on the waist?
Does it really come with a shield and a knife?

Li Langjun is indeed benevolent and righteous, he is willing to spend a lot of money on the pawns, such equipment is almost perfect.

The Fang spear is five feet long, and the enemy bandit is only nearly ten feet long, and his arm can't reach it even if it is twice as long.

If it's shooting arrows, wouldn't it be enough to raise the shield to cover the face?

Even if he was wearing wooden armor, it was enough to defend against ordinary arrows.

The generals looked at Li Chengzhi, their eyes became brighter and their respect grew stronger...

Not to mention these army leaders, even Song Lishen and the patriarchs only thought that more than [-]% of Li Chengzhi's Jujia, Quanjia, Banjia, etc. were made of wood.

Because most people know that Song Lishen led the villagers and monks of the Song family to make wooden armors for more than a month.

This is what the soldiers wear during daily drills...

Only Guo Cunxin's heart trembled when he heard it: Didn't you hear that cavalry and infantry are all in full armor, what is full armor?

Those wooden armors are half for horses and half for auxiliary soldiers...

The so-called auxiliary soldiers are just a deception, and they are usually mixed with heavy steps, and there is no lack of practice in any formation.

The wooden armor was replaced by iron armor, and then matched with a sword and shield, it was another thousand armored soldiers...
