Chapter seventy-ninth teaching by words and deeds



Cai still knew that as long as he proposed this combat plan, the task of restraining Song Jiang's rebel army on Zhang Liangshan would fall on him.

This is actually what Cai still expected.

Cai has always believed in one sentence: I am not afraid of opponents like gods, but I am afraid of teammates like pigs.

Therefore, Cai was still unwilling to coax with the big gang at all, but was more willing to go all the way alone.

As for this most difficult task in the eyes of others, it is really nothing in Cai Shen's eyes.

The Song Jiang rebel army had only 20,000 troops in total. To Duoli, the Song Jiang rebel army on Zhangliang Mountain was only 5,000.

If these five thousand Song Jiang's rebels were seized and defended by the mountain village, and Cai still led three thousand Jinwu troops to attack, then Cai still couldn't do it.

But if Cai was only restrained by these 5,000 Song Jiang rebels and did not allow them to rescue Song Jiang rebels on Dui Su Mountain, then Cai was still confident.

So, seeing that everyone was looking at him, Cai still refused to let him go: "If all the lords and generals trust the young general, then the young general is willing to take on this task."

Liang Fangping smiled and said, "Okay! I am worthy of my brave general of the Central Imperial Guard, I have the courage that others don't have!"

With the great achievements of Jishanzhai, Cai Shen captured, Liang Fangping has been promoted and has now officially entered the central imperial guards' sequence and has become the Du Yuhou of the Cavalry and Infantry Army (currently his position is the Chief Superintendent of the Hebei Zhaoqiansi).

The butt determines the head, and of course Liang Fangping has to speak to the people of the Central Imperial Army.

Huang Qianshan is not a good person. Although he dared not confront Liang Fangping, who is now favored by Emperor Zhao Ji, he could not follow Cai Jian, who is the seventh-rank rank. He looked at Cai Jian and said aggressively: "Can you really hold back the rebels on Zhang Liang Mountain? Can you guarantee it? Do you dare to issue a military order?"

Cai still didn't even hesitate, and said, "Everything on the battlefield is unknown. Who dares to say it must be? Can you win steadily according to Lord Huang's plan? Will Lord Huang dare to issue a military order?"

Huang Qianshan opened his eyes and said lying: "At least it must be more reliable than your plan."

Cai still shrugged and said, "Mr. Huang is the highest commander of this battle (Hebei recruitment envoy). I obey your orders, but I keep my own opinions."

Seeing that Cai still wanted to give up, Liang Fangping quit.

What a joke? If you win this battle, everyone will benefit. If you defeat it, no one will be able to follow you.

Therefore, Liang Fangping said, "In our opinion, Commander Cai's plan is more reliable. Siege cities and land is only second. The main purpose is to eliminate the live power of the rebels. Even if the rebels on Zhangliang Mountain are found to be deceived, the whole army will rescue the rebels on Dusu Mountain? As long as we fight faster, when they arrive at Dusu Mountain, the rebels on Dusu Mountain may only have a breath. Moreover, the Jinwu army said more than two thousand people, and with the bravery of Commander Cai and the elite of the Jinwu army, how can they hold them back for a day or two. With such plenty of time, we will fight if we want to fight, and leave if we don't want to fight. At worst, we can find other opportunities. It is much safer than just taking a single bet."

There is no need to take risks by yourself. All the risks are borne by the Jinwu army. They fight whenever they want, and withdraw when they don’t want to fight. Where can they find such good things? Therefore, Liang Fangping’s words immediately echoed.

Seeing this, Liang Fangping said, "According to our family, there is no need to discuss this matter anymore. Just act according to Commander Cai's plan."

Someone has already resisted the most difficult task, and they only need to follow the army of 40,000 to 50,000 to attack four or five thousand people. Who would disagree?

Therefore, everyone stood by Liang Fangping.

When Huang Qianshan saw that the situation had been lost, he kept silent and silently remembered this hatred in his heart. He would find another opportunity to avenge Liang Fangping and Cai again.

...

The head of the army commander on Zhang Liang Mountain is Qin Ming, who has been hitting Dong Ping without blocking Mu Heng and the prodigal son Yan Qing.

Qin Ming, Dong Ping and Mu Heng were all the few powerful generals under Song Jiang, and Yan Qing was very clever and a little wise. The four of them defeated the Song army repeatedly, especially during their time in Zhang Liangshan, they repeatedly beat the Song army that came to encircle and suppress them.

It is precisely because of this that in the eyes of Qin Ming and others, although the Song army had many troops, they were vulnerable and were even more fearless of the Song army's encirclement and suppression.

On this day, Qin Ming, Dong Ping, Mu Heng and Yan Qing were chatting.

Dong Ping said: "The government army is getting weaker and weaker, and the Song Dynasty is probably not long before it perishes."

Mu Heng said: "Yes, the world will be ours soon. By then, my brother will become the emperor, and we will all become generals and enjoy the world."

Yan Qing said calmly: "It cannot be said that all the officials and soldiers are vulnerable. Then the Jinwu army is very powerful. If they hadn't attacked and stopped them, how could we leave our hometown and come to Hebei?"

Qin Ming snorted and said, "That's Yang Zhi, Hu Yanchuo is incompetent. If my brother asked us to attack Najishan Village, how could he lose his troops and make the world underestimate us!"

Yan Qing said: "I have specially visited my brothers who participated in those battles. They said that in those battles, Brother Yang Zhi and Brother Hu Yanchuo did their best, especially the night attack commanded by Brother Yang Zhi. In the end, Brother Yang Zhi even personally stepped on the wall of the village, but they were defeated by them. Brother Dai Zong and Brother Yang Xiong were also defeated. Brother Li Ying was captured alive, so you must not underestimate Cai Jian and underestimate the Jinwu Army."

Qin Ming was a little stubborn because of his high martial arts skills. He said, "Yang Zhi, just a coward. When will he be willing to live his life and fight with others? On the battlefield, there is no place where he is a cunning person who makes achievements. If I go to the wall of the village that day, I will never survive."

Yan Qing was about to argue again, but suddenly someone came in to report: "Report to several leaders, the official army is coming to attack our parody!"

Qin Ming heard the words and said, "Oh? Are you here to die again? That's just right for me to teach Yang Zhi how to fight Hu Yanchuo? Come on, call the general to send troops."

Yan Qing hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, wait."

When Qin Ming heard this, he frowned and said, "Why do you want to stop me?"

Yan Qing said: "Brother, don't be anxious. When I first find out how many people they have come and whether they have any support, and then let's discuss whether to go to the battle. How about it?"

Although Qin Ming was reckless, he was not stupid. The official army came for three to five thousand. He could lead his troops to fight. If he came for three to five thousand, how could he lead his troops to fight? So he said: "It should be true. Go and go back quickly, brothers."

After Yan Qing went out, Qin Ming, Dong Ping and Mu Heng immediately began to prepare for the war.

More than an hour later, Yan Qing came back and said in a deep voice: "There are three wings coming, namely the Qianning Army, the Yongjing Army, and the Baoding Army. They may have 30,000 troops."

After hearing this, Dong Ping frowned and said, "We Zhang Liangshan are the main attack direction of the government army?"

Mu Heng said, "So what if we are 30,000? As long as we are bound to defend the village, even if the official army has 30,000, we may not be able to wait for us. Moreover, as long as we light the wolf smoke, someone will definitely come to rescue us. At that time, we will attack forward and backward, and we may not be able to repel the official army in one fell swoop, and then we will attack Changshan Pass. As long as we open up Changshan Pass, we can advance to attack the city and surround the land, and retreat to Taihang Mountain to accumulate the power of counterattack."

But at this moment, someone shouted: "Look, wolf smoke!"

When Qin Ming and others heard the words, they all looked up and saw smoke rolling in Dui Su Mountain.

Dong Ping narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that the government army is preparing to attack our Zhang Liangshan, Zhang Qing and others at the same time."

...

After receiving the order, Cai still divided the Jinwu army into three:

The front camp and the left camp, including Cai Gan and Cai Gan's personal guards, set off along the avenue and headed straight for Zhang Liangshan. This route was led by Cai Gan himself.

The personal guard camp detours from the left, and this route is led by Wang Detong.

The middle camp, the right camp and the back camp are detoured from the right, and this route is led by Niu Gao.

As soon as Cai Shen’s combat plan came out, many people were sweating profusely. There were only 3,000 troops in total, and they had to divide the troops, not into two groups, but into three groups. What’s the joke?

Gao Shidan relied on his qualifications and advised him: "General, is it a bit too dangerous to divide troops like this?"

Cai still said: "After listening to me, our purpose is to confuse the enemy and let the enemy make wrong judgments. Therefore, after the division of troops, you are all promoted. Zhang Xian, you are the commander of the Ganning Army, Wang De, you are the commander of the Yongjing Army, Niu Gao, you are the commander of the Baoding Army, and I am the commander of the recruitment envoy Huang, all the heads will be promoted to commander. Junming will also think about it yourself. When encountering the enemy, those who exceed the size of the battalion are not allowed to attack. Remember, if you don't fight, you will never be defeated in one battle. You must pull out all the posts along the way. All prisoners must be put back as much as possible, but you cannot let them discover your real organization. What I said, you all understand?"

Those who responded quickly and understood what Cai Lan meant at once. They said angrily: "Yes, we came to Zhang Liangshan, not to fight head-on with the rebels on Zhang Liangshan, but to restrain the rebels on Zhang Liangshan, and not let them rescue the rebels on Dusushan. As long as we do what the general said, the enemy will definitely think that the 30,000 troops of the Ganning Army, Yongjing Army and Baoding Army were brought by Huang Zhaodao himself. However, because of our poor discipline, the front line is a bit long. Faced with our aggressive 30,000 troops, they must not dare to act rashly, and then we can easily complete the task of restraining the rebels on Zhang Liangshan."

After these people analyzed this, everyone realized Cai Shen's cleverness and even realized Cai Shen's cunning.

Yue Fei, who was standing behind Cai Shen, his eyes lit up and he thought to himself: "It turns out that he can fight like this, but... isn't this a bit unfair?"

Cai still seemed to have eyes behind his head to see Yue Fei's thoughts, and then he seemed to be saying to everyone, and as if he was saying to Yue Fei alone: ​​"The army is inconsistent, and the water is inconsistent. Once you go to the battlefield, don't care about the means, and don't stick to the rules. You have to consider only the same thing, that is to win. In order to win, you can do whatever you want. If you can't do this, you will definitely ruin the chance of victory because of your stupidity, which will bring huge casualties to the army you command, and may even ruin your own life."

When Yue Fei heard the words, he felt a stern, and then silently remembered Cai Jian’s words in his heart.

"The marshal was first followed by the emperor, and the emperor appointed him as his personal guard, always with him, teaching by example and deeds, and teaching the way to lead troops." - "The Middle Ages"·Biography of Yue Fei.
