Pampered Tian's Wife: The Little Weaver Girl in the Farmhouse

Chapter 690 Actively Facing the Battle
Regardless of the emperor's decree, he ordered the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Finance to find a way to mobilize [-] soldiers and horses within seven days.Prepare to go to Luzhou to encircle and suppress the rebels, and not allow Chu Ruifeng's power to grow.A group of officials from the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Finance were threatened by the emperor, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go on errands.In the following days, there was a lot of chaos in the capital, and the people who made the noise were not able to live in peace.

Under such turmoil, almost all the people in the capital knew that the imperial court was going to send troops again.Uncle Fu, who was still in the capital, immediately ordered someone to send a letter to Luzhou to let Chu Ruifeng and his wife prepare early, so as not to be too late to deal with it.

The person who delivered the letter hurried to Luzhou, and in less than ten days, he arrived in Luzhou and passed the news to Chu Ruifeng.When Chu Ruifeng received the letter, he also attached great importance to the news, and immediately gathered Lin Bokang and other major generals to discuss countermeasures.

A group of generals offered their words and suggestions one after another, nothing more than how to defend, strengthen the city wall, increase troops and so on.Most of these people are Chu Ruifeng's former subordinates, or Chu Kangsheng's cronies at the time, and they are also people who are good at fighting. Naturally, they don't care about fighting.They have nothing to do these days, and they all feel uncomfortable, and they are waiting for a fight to soothe their muscles and bones.

Seeing that everyone was not timid to fight, but eager to try, Chu Ruifeng couldn't help but smile, "We must fight, we have 3 troops in Luzhou now, and there are still more troops in Wuwei." More than [-]. If the court only sends [-], we dare to compete with them face to face. However, I still think that we must try our best to preserve our strength, strive for the smallest loss and win the greatest victory. It is not easy for us to have today , can’t easily lose manpower.”

Chu Ruifeng still has confidence in the soldiers under his command. During the days when they were stationed in Luzhou, all the soldiers did not stop to train.Now let alone those veterans, even those soldiers who have come over this year have trained very well, and when they go to the battlefield, they are all good players.

However, the more it was like this, the more Chu Ruifeng cherished it. He would feel distressed if he lost one of the manpower he had cultivated with great difficulty.Wars are inevitable, but how to win at the least cost is the most important thing.

After hearing Chu Ruifeng's words, everyone fell silent.Although these people are good at fighting, but when it comes to strategizing and deploying troops, they are still a bit short of fire.

But Lin Bokang over there, who had been silent before, did speak now. "General, according to what I mean, it is better for us to take the initiative to attack. The battle between the two armies will definitely affect the people around us. It is hard for us to stabilize the surrounding area of ​​Luzhou. If it disturbs the lives of the people because of this, it will be somewhat unsightly." .”

"General, why don't we push the front line forward? Before the imperial army arrives, let's attack a few more cities in the north. By then, using those cities as a barrier will also ensure the stability of Luzhou." While speaking, Lin Bokang got up and pointed back at a huge map on the wall.

"Look, general, we are here now, Luzhou. If we can take the two cities of Dingyuan and Huainan before the imperial army arrives, we can set up a line of defense to the north of Luzhou. At the same time, this The two places and Luzhou are distributed in the shape of an inverted pin, and they are horns for each other, watching and helping each other, both offensive and defensive, no matter which one is attacked, they can be rescued quickly."

"Moreover, we can also set up an ambush on the only way for the Liao army to attack, destroy their vigor and strength, and let them lose their troops before they reach the battlefield. The most important thing in marching and fighting is morale. No need to fight." Lin Bokang smiled lightly, looking confident.

Lin Bokang's words were not too different from what Chu Ruifeng was thinking, but Chu Ruifeng's thinking was not as comprehensive as Lin Bokang's. He just wanted to lead people to fight a few ambushes at first.But after hearing Lin Bokang's proposal, he felt that this proposal was better.

The rebel army in Luzhou has developed rapidly. In just a few months, it has grown to more than 8 people. Now it is only occupying Luzhou and Wuwei, which is actually a waste of troops.Chu Ruifeng has always been seeking stability, and has never led troops to other places hastily. One is because he is concerned about the autumn harvest, and the other is because he wants the soldiers to rest for a while.

But under the current situation, it is inevitable to send troops.Dingyuan and Huainan belong to Anfeng Road. In the north of Luzhou, the geographical location is relatively important.If these two places can be captured, it will play a very important role in the next battle.

"Mr. Lin's idea is really strange. Thinking about it, Mr. Lin already has a comprehensive plan in his heart. Why don't we talk about it and discuss it together. If this battle is won, it is estimated that the court will not be able to deal with it again in three or two years. We have sent troops. Therefore, this time we can only succeed and not fail. For the sake of the stability of Luzhou, we must repel the imperial army so that they dare not come again."

When it comes to fighting, Chu Ruifeng's eyes shine brightly. He is not a peaceful person, and he has inherited the military talent of his grandfather and father.Such a person was originally extraordinary, but now that he has rebelled, he is bound to make an earth-shattering career.Continuing defense is not the way to go, it is inevitable to attack the city and conquer the land. Since there is going to be a war, of course it has to be fought beautifully.

Lin Bokang had been with Chu Ruifeng for a long time, and he knew Chu Ruifeng very well, so he said what he thought in his heart at this moment.Although some aspects of Lin Bokang's suggestion sound a bit unbelievable, after careful discussion, it is completely reasonable.All the generals joined the discussion one after another. After half a day of discussion, they finally came up with a perfect battle plan.

"Okay, let's start preparing according to what we discussed today. Normally, it will take about half a month for the capital to arrive here. At this time, it is estimated that the capital has just dispatched troops and generals. We still have Time. We must hurry up and take Dingyuan and Huainan within half a month, and give the imperial army a head-on blow."

All the plans are set, and the next step is to act quickly. The speed of soldiers is precious, and there is no delay at this time.Therefore, Chu Ruifeng immediately ordered troops to be dispatched, and Wuwei left [-] of the [-] defenders there, and the rest were also transferred to attack Dingyuan and Huainan with all their strength.

Everyone immediately got up and left the general's mansion, according to the previous agreement, each arranged their own troops.Marching and fighting is no small matter, food, grass and military pay are also indispensable. Now it is the end of October and looking at November, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Everything must be arranged.

Chu Ruifeng had to make some preparations, the war was about to start, so he had to tell Qiaoyun.So, Chu Ruifeng left the meeting room in the front yard, went back to the backyard, and went to find Qiaoyun.
