Chapter 136 Han Shizhong: A scholar dies for his confidant (addition for the monthly ticket!)
...

On the third day, in the evening.

The Huben Army, which made the officials, soldiers and civilians in Xiuzhou City "hope" for three days and two nights, finally arrived belatedly and surrounded Xiuzhou City in groups.

To be honest, after three days and two nights of suffering, the officials, soldiers and civilians in Xiuzhou City no longer had the fear and awe they had before.

——Now, they who have not had a good rest for three days and two nights can only be relieved.

Many of them were thinking, "Fight now! Just hold out until tomorrow morning, and this damned, grinding war will be over!"

But the Huben Army came and surrounded the city, but they still took it easy, as if they didn't care about the outcome of the bet.

The military craftsmen of the Huben Army are making final adjustments to all the siege equipment to ensure that they will not have any problems during use for a while.

The soldiers were either eating and drinking, or resting on the spot, in the final stage of recuperating.

Li Cun gathered all the generals, and the preparation point will arrange the siege mission.

After looking around for a week, Li Cun was the first to point out: "Zhu Yan, Wu Bang, Li De, Jiang Cai, Dong Ju, Wang Guo, Zhu Shi..."

When Zhu Yan and other Wuzhou generals heard this, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts!
Zhu Yan and the others had long guessed that Li Cunyou might let them fight this siege battle that was bound to cost a lot.

In the eyes of Zhu Yan and other Wuzhou generals, they are not Li Cun's direct descendants, good things will definitely not happen to them, and they will definitely have to gnaw hard bones, and Li Cun will find opportunities to consume their strength.

Just like a few days ago, Li Cun suddenly announced that he would form the Left Guard Army, the Right Guard Army, and the Central Guard Army, and immediately removed half of the elite of their Wuzhou Army.

To be honest, that incident made Zhu Yan and the others very uncomfortable. After all, these good soldiers were brought out with great difficulty, so how could they be willing to give it to Li Cun?
But for one thing, these Wuzhou army officers and soldiers who were selected to go to the pro-guard army are good news from the delivery room. They have been promoted. How could they stand in the way of their promotion and fortune? Isn't this a feud?
Secondly, Li Cun's food is not so ugly. After the elites were transferred away, Li Cun filled the vacancies for them with recruits selected from the Fang Layi Army - of course, during this process, those who supported The officers and men of the Wuzhou Army of the Huben Army inevitably got more promotions.

Three times, Li Cun dared to give Chen Miaozhen a maternity leave. Even if they had any thoughts, it would definitely be useless, because as long as Chen Miaozhen stood up and called out, there would definitely not be many Wuzhou Army soldiers who would betray them Li Cun's.

Fourthly, those supervising soldiers that Li Cun'an inserted in the Wuzhou Army were really not vegetarians. These supervising troops controlled the thoughts of a large number of Wuzhou Army officers and soldiers, making these Wuzhou Army officers and soldiers become Li Cun's staunch supporters, and These supervising troops are very loved by the generals of the Wuzhou Army.

In the past five years, these supervising troops have mastered all the situation of the Wuzhou Army (the elites transferred to the Guards Army were recommended to the Huben Army Sergeant Cao), and if they dare to make any changes, Li Cun will know them in minutes. Then tidy them up.

Therefore, even though they were not feeling well and were sent to gnaw hard bones, Zhu Yan and the others responded in unison: "The end is here!"

Unexpectedly, Li Cun actually said: "You and other parts have just taken away a lot of elites. You need to rest for a period of time. This time you will be the reserve team."

"?"

Zhu Yan and the others were all surprised: "Don't let us gnaw hard bones?"

This was beyond the expectations of Zhu Yan and the others: "Could it be that the governor didn't target us?!"

Li Cun ignored Zhu Yan and other former little warlords with too shallow eyelids, but swept through the generals one by one...

When Li Cun's eyes fell on Er Ganzi, Er Ganzi immediately straightened his waist, as if saying: "The governor chose me, and I will definitely be able to complete this important task!"

But Li Cun's gaze quickly crossed the two poles, and then continued to sweep them one by one, finally falling on Han Shizhong, and then asked with a smile: "Liangchen, would you like to have a try?"

When Han Shizhong heard the words, his heart couldn't help but start beating wildly!
Li Cun said when he played chess before that he planned to send [-] troops to attack the city.

On this basis, Li Cun asked him to try, and I am afraid that at least he will temporarily control 1 people.

If that's the case, then if he votes for Li Cun in the future, he may be directly in charge. No, according to Li Cun's way of employing people, he should be allowed to act as a substitute for control first.

But Daizhizhi is just one more code word than Tongzhi, and there is actually no difference in power and the number of troops in command.

The key point is that Li Cun let Han Shizhong, a surrendered general, command such an important battle, which in itself is a huge trust.

Needless to say, as long as he, Han Shizhong, can complete this important task, he will definitely be in the Huben Army in the future.

but--

There is a good side, and there is definitely a bad side.

If Han Shizhong accepted this task and took down Xiuzhou City, then he would be considered to be completely on the bandit ship of the Huben Army, and he would be beheaded when he returned to Zhao Song Dynasty.

Moreover, it might affect his wife and son in the Western Army.

One is a god-sent opportunity, the other is the safety of the wife and son, how to choose?
Li Cun saw Han Shizhong's worry, and said: "When you are here, you first follow my surname Li, and your first name is Li Zhong. After I earn back your family, you can change your surname to Han, how about it?"

After Li Cun said such words, what else could Han Shizhong say, he could only bow down and say: "Li Zhong is willing to give it a try."

Li Cun nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, then you will command the Left Guard Army, the Right Army Guard, the Central Guard Army and related auxiliary troops to attack the east, west, and north walls, and I will attack the south and buy for you." insurance."

When Li Cun said this, everyone was shocked!
It's too child's play for a surrendered general who originally commanded only 500 people to command an army of [-], plus more than [-] auxiliary troops? !

Not only others, but even Han Shizhong couldn't believe that Li Cun would let him exercise such great power.

At this moment, Han Shizhong really had the idea of ​​dying for his confidant!
I really don't blame Han Shizhong for being moved by Li Cun to such an extent. In fact, since Han Shizhong joined the army, no one has treated Han Shizhong so well.

No.

It should be said that no one treats Han Shizhong well.

Thinking back to the beginning, Han Shizhong performed outstandingly when pulling back the strong and galloping, and won the championship.

But what can it do, Han Shizhong is still a low-level soldier.

The Song army attacked Yinzhou, but could not attack for a long time. Han Shizhong fought hard to break through the city, killed the defending enemy general, and threw his head out of the city. The Song army was encouraged, rushed forward and captured the city.

But in the end, Han Shizhong could only get a small official.

During the battle between Song and Xia, a knight in the Xia army fought bravely. Han Shizhong asked the captured Xia soldier, and learned that this was the son-in-law of the Xixia army, so he jumped on his horse and beheaded him.

After the war, the Department of Economics and Strategy reported his merits to the court of Zhao and Song Dynasties, requesting an exceptional promotion of Han Shizhong.However, Tong Guan, who was in charge of the side affairs at the time, doubted the authenticity of the report and only agreed to promote Han Shizhong to a higher level.

No one is fighting Han Shizhong for the credit he deserves.

In Han Shizhong's 13 years of military career, he encountered too many things like this.

It made Han Shizhong already give up any hope of him being promoted and reused.

Who would have thought that Li Cun would praise Han Shizhong so much in Li Cun's place.

The eyes of Han Shizhong, a tough man, couldn't help but get wet.

But Han Shizhong didn't say anything, but bowed to the ground: "No!"

Some people want to persuade Li Cun to be cautious!
You must know that if Han Shizhong doesn't try his best, the Huben Army will not be able to fight Xiuzhou City before tomorrow morning. According to the bet, the Huben Army will withdraw from Xiuzhou and never come to fight.

At that time, if the Huben army does not abide by the agreement, it will undoubtedly lose Li Cun's prestige, and if the Huben army abides by the agreement, it will be equivalent to providing sufficient food and grass and boosting morale for the Song army entering the Liangzhe area However, it is difficult to say whether the Huben army can defeat the Song army under the ebb and flow.

But Li Cun stopped those who wanted to persuade him, waved his hand directly, and asked Han Shizhong to prepare.

It's not that Li Cun doesn't know the simple truth that the times make heroes.

It's not that Li Cun doesn't know that among the 10 people under his command, there must be talents who haven't been tapped yet.

But the problem is, if these talents want to stand out, they need training, time, and luck. It's not just that Li Cun sees who looks like a talent and puts him in a very important position rashly.

If Li Cunzhen did that, there might be big problems.

As for historical celebrities, at least they have been proven by history, and they should be much more reliable than those who have not yet made their mark.

The key is that the experience and experience between the two are too different.

Since the establishment of the Huben Army, it has not been a full year, and there are only a handful of major battles it has fought.

As for Han Shizhong and the other famous historical generals, regardless of their historical reputation, they are far from being comparable to the current generals of the Huben Army in terms of military experience alone.

Like Han Shizhong, he has been in the army for 13 years.

Xie Yuan has been in the army for 17 years.

None of Wang Sheng, Yue Chao, Hu Yantong, and Xu Shian had been in the army for less than five years.

Even those unknown generals and schools of the Song Army also have rich military experience.

And these are exactly what the soldiers of the Huben Army lack most.

It is precisely because of this that Li Cun tried his best to absorb these surrendered generals of the Song Army to improve the overall strength of the Huben Army.

Let's talk about this battle again.

The second pole has actually shown some qualifications of a good general, loyal, brave, and happy after hearing the battle.

But the experience and ability of the second pole is still far behind Han Shizhong.

Therefore, at this crucial battle, Li Cun felt that Han Shizhong should be more reliable.

Of course, the main reason why Li Cun dared to let Han Shizhong fight this crucial battle was that even if Han Shizhong defeated in the end, it would not affect Li Cun's winning of the bet. Don't forget, Li Cun still left an insurance...
