Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1630 Storm Nine

Hanoi County, border county.

Dangyin County.

In the west of the county seat, on a small road, a group of soldiers and horses were marching rapidly. Their speed was very fast, but they did not see any flags.

Tatata! ! !
In the lead was a general who reined in his horse and mounted a small mountain peak, overlooking a small county town on the east side from the small mountain peak, his eyes flickered, and he let out a low drink.

"General Luo!"

"exist!"

A young man rode up to follow.

"This general will give you five hundred elite soldiers. No matter what method you use, you must occupy Dangyin County. This is our retreat, and there must be no mistakes!"

The general said coldly.

"The last general takes orders!"

The young man took the military order and led five hundred soldiers, and went straight to Dangyin City.

"General, Dangyin City should now be occupied by those local nobles. The local nobles must have soldiers. Five hundred soldiers may not be enough to feed them!" A scribe wearing a battle armor came up from behind and said to the general.

"Fang Changshi, why doesn't this general know about it!"

The general is Deng Xian, General Xichuan. After he surrendered to the Ming army, he served as the lieutenant of the Chongshan Battalion, an independent combat battalion of the Ming Army.

From the captain to the Zhonglang general, it is possible to upgrade to the general level, and any Zhonglang general has the right to fight independently, but for Deng Xian, it is not a good thing.

Originally, he just wanted to keep a low profile, so that he could survive until retirement without any surprises, and he didn't need to make contributions, but it was fine if he didn't get settled by the autumn queen.

At the beginning, he was really nervous, and even thought about resigning from the official position, but after being beaten and encouraged by Mujing in Baidi Mountain, he relaxed a lot.

Moreover, it has been many years since he surrendered. Yizhou has become a thing of the past. Even though Liu Zhang is still alive, his influence is almost gone.

This actually gave Deng Xian some fighting spirit. As a soldier, making meritorious deeds, ennobling princes and worshiping ministers, and glorifying ancestors are always goals, but there were too many taboos in the past.

The Sun and Moon Third Army had just completed its reorganization, and was even a little unfamiliar with the coordination of the army formation. Its combat strength was only about [-] to [-] percent at most, so it was pushed directly northward, because it had a mission, a very important mission.

If he, Deng Xian, wants to show more powerful abilities than others, he must create success based on limited conditions, at least to make His Majesty trust him more.

The county town of Dangyin, after the battle of Luoyang and the retreat of the Zhou army, the Ming army did not keep up and became a no-care zone. If he didn't go north, he would naturally not want to take care of him.

But now that he came out of Chaoge, he had to go through Dangyin to go north to Wei County, so Dangyin must be in his own hands.

General Luo Hong, who was born in Wu Beitang, is young, has fighting spirit, is familiar with the art of war, and is relatively calm among young people in terms of personality.

At least among the participating generals of the Sun and Moon Third Army, Deng Xian is most optimistic about him. Naturally, he should be given more opportunities, but this opportunity is also a trap. If Luo Hong can't pass this level, he will not become a general. talent.

Sometimes the military is very straightforward. It is a life and death. If you have the ability, you can only join. If you don’t have the ability, you can only be cast aside. Let alone the relationship. Only those who are good will be looked up to by others, and those who are fooling around will never be able to get on the stage.

"It's just that I don't have enough troops now. After going north, I will inevitably face the chaos in Hebei, especially the large number of troops lingering around Yecheng. It is already difficult to deal with it. If I disperse some troops, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with!"

Deng Xian said: "A certain family is optimistic about Luo Hong, give him five hundred soldiers and horses, and occupy the Yin. If he can be stable, it's his ability. If he can't, it's his life!"

Hearing this, Fang Changshi sighed and said nothing more.

This is the army.

In the army, getting ahead is not based on seniority, but ability. If you want to get ahead, you have to lead the team. Without merit, it is useless to say a thousand words.

"Twenty miles ahead, is the territory of Wei County?"

Deng Xian opened the map of the march, looked at the route, and said: "To the east is Neihuang. Who owns the city of Neihuang now?"

"According to the news from Jing Wusi, the city of Neihuang should be in the hands of Zhou Jun. The specifics are not very clear, but it should be soldiers and horses going north from Guandu!"

Fang Changshi was in charge of military affairs supervision and news transmission in the army, and he quickly said: "Based on our marching route, we can completely avoid Neihuang, go directly north, walk through Linyangju, cross Wushui, enter Wuxiong Town, a distance from Ye The city is less than fifty miles away!"

"Is there enough time?" Deng Xiandao: "The military orders His Majesty gave us are to respond, and the time must be sufficient. Once there are mistakes and our mission fails, the Sun and Moon Third Army will leave stains on the honor file , this is not something this general can bear!"

"That's why our march needs to be pushed faster!"

Fang Changshi said: "The soldiers of the first battalion led by General Xu Can and Lei Xiaowei, as the vanguard Xiangjun, should have entered Linyangju at this time. If it wasn't for the convenience of guarding against Neihuang County, they would have forcibly crossed over a long time ago." Wushui is gone!"

"Let him get ready in Wushui to meet us across the river. After going north, the marching speed will be accelerated by one-third. We can't continue to wander!"

Deng Xiandao: "The main force must enter Yecheng as soon as possible!"

"General, once you enter Yecheng, there is no way to avoid it, there must be a battle!" Fang Changshi said in a low voice: "When the time comes, will we reveal our identities!"

"I can't hide it anymore, but..."

Deng Xian smiled and said: "We don't need to hide in the first place, Your Majesty said, as long as we don't find a way for them, we don't need to be careful!"

"That!"

Fang Changshi was relieved, he said: "The Sixth Battalion will escort the food and supplies, and walk at the back. The general can personally lead the main force to go first!"

"Well!"

Deng Xian nodded and said: "The Sixth Battalion does not need to participate in the battle. You are responsible for defending the Inner Yellow River and the entire Eastern Front. Once we withdraw, if we want to return to Hanoi quickly, we must ensure an absolute retreat!"

"It's not impossible, but will it appear that there are insufficient troops?"

"Machine warfare, enough troops!" Deng Xian said: "This general will not confront them head-on on the battlefield. General Xu Shen told this general before he led the army first that the main task of this battle going north is to respond, and a fight cannot be avoided. , but you can't fight head-on, it's not a sneak attack, it's a surprise attack, or you can divide your troops to fight, anyway, you can wrap around, entangle, or hide, but you can't face-to-face!"

The battle plan had already been decided early in the morning. General Xu Shen was in charge of the staff office of the military headquarters. He is a capable person who is familiar with the art of war and can deduce various battle situations. He can be regarded as Deng Xian's military adviser.

"Since General Xu Shen has a plan, it must be good!" Fang Changshi nodded. He is Zuo Changshi, the second in command of the Sun and Moon Third Army, but Xu Gang is a capable person. As a general, his layout ability is the best in the army.

..................................................................

When the Third Sun and Moon Army went north to Wei County, Ye City also entered the countdown to break through.

in the city.

After the war ended, there was a bit of silence, the people did not dare to go out, the officials were put under house arrest, the city was patrolled by soldiers, and the dogs and chickens did not dare to make trouble at this time.

But the quieter it is, the more uneasy it feels.

It was as if there was peace before the storm, and people couldn't help but feel some fear.

Zhou Palace.

Tan Zong, Han Tao, and Yue Shu are making plans.

"The places like Zhongshan and Changshan in Hejian are already out of our reach. Dead horses are used as live horse doctors. At most [-] people will be placed, and these people will be very dangerous. After all, these places are out of our control!"

Han Tao said: "My influence is also limited, those old people may not be willing to buy this face!"

"There is a slight chance, if you can install it, let's give it a try!" Tan Zong said coldly: "Twenty, if there is one-third of the value, we will all earn it!"

Don't blame him for being cold-hearted. Troubled times are like this. When a war breaks out, people will die. If they can control some counties in advance, it will be much easier to recover Hebei.

"I try my best!"

Han Tao said with a wry smile.

He thought for a while, and said: "Wu Anling, Qinghe Guoxiang, I can say surrender, but now time is running out, I am afraid there will be no such opportunity!"

"Then write a letter to them. If they are willing to leave, we can arrange a channel for them to enter Guanzhong. As long as they enter Guanzhong, they will enter the territory of our Ming Dynasty!"

Yue Shu thought for a while and replied.

"Now the time is very tight, we can't waste any time, Han Tao, go talk to some officials of the state of Zhou to talk about your concerns, and make sure more people are willing to go south with us!"

Tan Zong squinted his eyes and smiled: "The Zhou Kingdom can be regarded as a vassal state. Under Yuan Shao's command, there are still many talents. As long as they are willing to go south to face us, there must be a fortune in Daming!"

Daming is now in a state of waste, because of the problems of the New Deal, the confrontation is very serious, and the demand for talents is also very, very large.

If these people can be swept southward, it will be a very big support for the talent reserve of the Ming Dynasty officialdom.

The plan of stealing the sky and changing the sun is stealing talents.

What is replaced is also talent.

The key to this two-bird-with-one-stone strategy lies in the replacement of talents. Put a group of talents loyal to the Ming Dynasty in Hebei, and then put the talents in Hebei back.

If it can be done, Jingwusi will make great contributions, even the political affairs hall and the Privy Council will not be able to erase the credit, so that Jingwusi will have an absolute foothold in the meritorious service.

"I try my best!"

Han Tao said in a low voice: "My father has been dead for many years after all, and the friendship left behind cannot allow these people to take risks, so I still need the promise of the court. If Daming has a promise, they will take some action. After all, they They are not fools either, even if it is difficult to leave their homeland, and now it is a troubled time, they can all see that Da Ming has the ambition to dominate the world, and it is an adventure to vote for Da Ming at this time, there must be someone who is willing, just to see how much Da Ming can give Promise of!"

"promise?"

Tan Zong thought for a while: "In my capacity, I really don't have much to offer. If Your Majesty, no, any prime minister in Zhaoming Pavilion is here, he is qualified to promise!"

"You can try to give them a word first!" Yue Shu said.

"No!"

Tan Zong shook his head: "Our representative is Daming. Your Majesty said that Daming is a blank piece of paper. If you draw a trace, you may not be able to see it, but if you open it, there will be more and more traces. , more than anything else, we can't let them down on Daming just because of our promise, don't say anything that can't be done!"

"Then it will be more difficult to convince them!" Yue Shu said.

"If it's difficult, you have to do it. You can tell them that when you arrive in Daming, you will have a chance to face the Holy Spirit. They can fight for their own status!"

Tan Zong thought about it and said.

This is his maximum authority. He is not qualified to promise an official position or a title, but he can make a decision in the face of the holy opportunity.

"That's fine too!"

Han Tao's eyes lit up, and he said: "The opportunity to face the saint is not very good. If you have the ability, you must trust yourself. If you have confidence in the face saint, you have hope. If you don't even have confidence in yourself, you must have the ability." It's not very high, even if you miss it, it's not a pity!"

"We divide labor and cooperate. General Pan can't hold it for long. I'm afraid we will withdraw in less than three days. We will finish it as soon as possible. If we can't finish it, we will destroy the rest of the plan. Only we know about this matter. There is any possibility of revealing it, otherwise we will fall short!" Tan Zongdao.

"Yes!"

Yue Shu and Han Tao nodded.

"Mr. Han, Prime Minister Ju, do you have any other ideas?" Tan Zong suddenly asked Han Tao.

"What does Commander Tan mean?"

"This man is too smart. We stayed in the city for too long, and he will probably see the clues. In order to succeed in stealing the sky, and to reduce casualties in Hebei in the future, we can return to the court of the Ming Dynasty!" Tan Zongdao: "I don't know. Dare to keep it!"

"Pity!"

Han Tao was silent for a while, and said with some regret.

........................

In a wing room, all sides are sealed with iron plates, like a prison cell, a scribe lives in it, but he is very at ease, drinking tea, reading, as if everything outside does not care about his own business.

Click!

At this time, the door suddenly opened from the outside, and a person in a wheelchair was pushed in.

The scribe, with disheveled hair, looked up.

There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "It's time to send me on my way!"

"I should let Han Tao kill you!" Tan Zong said softly.

"He will not!"

The scribe said: "Han Tao is always Han Tao, the son of Duke Fu, after all, he has inherited some of Duke Fu's character, has the city, has the ability, has the idea, but less decisive and courageous!"

"Are you so confident?" Tan Zong looked at Jushou, and he suddenly understood why Zhou Guo's first prime minister and Hebei's first adviser was him, not Tian Feng. He was in charge of the overall situation, so Yuan Shao could conquer the world.

"confidence?"

Ju Shou smiled: "Not really, if I had confidence, I wouldn't be in such a situation!"

He couldn't help sighing: "Actually speaking about Mr. Fu, why not talking about myself, I am not as good as Tian Feng, if you have Tian Feng's character, you will all perish!"
