When she arrived at the city gate, Changsheng had already seen the other party's cavalry from a distance. She respectfully walked to the roadside to welcome the other party's arrival.

Before the other party could stop, Changsheng cupped his fists and bowed, saying, "Master Yuwen, please take a rest for a moment. After the subordinates have inspected the situation and arranged for the escorting soldiers, I will invite you to the army for a briefing."

Yu Wenshu was a red-faced man in his fifties. He said in a loud voice: "Master Li, don't worry. I have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and my body is still strong."

Changshengxin said that this was also a stubborn old man, so he followed him towards Dunhuang City without insisting.

Yu Wenshu's face turned rosy when he saw Dunhuang City, and he asked with a smile: "I heard that this time General Li faced another great victory against the Turkic coalition forces alone. How is the current situation?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a biting cold wind blew up, making the old man shiver. Changsheng said with concern: "It's windy outside the city. Mr. Yuwen, let's move to the camp in the city to discuss it in detail."

Unexpectedly, this old man had a fiery temper and kept urging: "Let's talk first, let's talk all the way." In the past few days, he had received reports from Master Gao and the reports from the border guards to compare them.

Later, he felt that the intelligence was true. That meant that the enemy's main force had suffered heavy losses, and more main forces were gathering to prepare for rescue. This was a great opportunity to annihilate the Western Turks. After learning the news, he went on non-stop.

came from the east.

After the two of them arrived at the marching camp of the Changsheng Army, Changsheng looked at the map and explained to Yuwen Shu the causes and consequences of the dispatch, as well as the entire battle process, and analyzed the current Turkic situation and future discovery trends.

Yu Wenshu is also a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He understood it as soon as Chang Sheng explained it to him. Not only did he lament that the enemy was panicking and launched a large-scale attack, it can be said that it was well planned, so Chen Ping was also unfortunately killed. In this life-and-death crisis

You were able to step forward at the critical moment and save thousands of soldiers in Linchuan and tens of thousands of people in Dunhuang. General Li is truly a model for our northwest frontier army.

Changsheng quickly shook his head and waved his hands, saying that all the credit was attributed to the common enemies of the Gondor camp and the bravery of his subordinates to kill the enemy. After she finished speaking, she saw Yu Wenshu staring at her with strange eyes. Changsheng quickly stood up and clasped his fists: "Master Yuwen, if you have anything to say, please speak directly.

."

Yu Wenshu brushed his beard, looked at Changsheng carefully and said, "General Li is only about ten years old this year."

Changsheng was stunned for a moment. No one had mentioned her age for a long time. She paused and told the truth: "I will be nine years old this year."

To have achieved extraordinary feats at the age of nine, and to be ranked in the fourth rank of officialdom can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented. This is also a sign of the prosperity of our dynasty. At your age, my son is still an ignorant child who knows nothing.

, it’s so irritating that people are so different from each other.

Changsheng hurriedly said that he didn't dare, thinking that none of the products in your house were fuel-efficient lamps. It would be better for me to stay far away. He hurriedly said: "The humble job depends entirely on luck. How dare you compare with the young masters of Yuwen."

"

"It's a pity that you have never entered a private school, and you are too young. Otherwise, I would really like to recommend you to your Majesty as an official in the court. The country is at a time of employment, and you are a pillar of talent..." Yu Wenshu said and suddenly stopped talking.

He looked at a piece of information on Changsheng's desk and asked, "What is that?"

Changsheng turned around and saw that it was the secret letter from the Changsheng Camp that had just been sent to him. As a result, Hong Antong told him that Yuwen Shu was here. He opened it in a panic and hurriedly opened it to read it. So he reported back: "Master Yuwen, that is my Changsheng Camp."

"Information" he said, taking it and presenting it to Yu Wenshu with both hands.

She knows the temperament of this kind of person. The more upright and upright you are to show him, the less curious he will be. The more you want to hide and tuck him, the more your curiosity will be aroused.

"Look, this is your camp. Of course you have to handle it yourself." After Yuwen Shu finished speaking, he sat down on his seat and waited to hear Chang Sheng's report.

Unexpectedly, Changsheng fell into deep thought after reading the information. He was stroking the paper of information and thinking about the problem. Hong An knew that his lord didn't like to be interrupted when he was thinking about the problem. Yuwenshu was not in a hurry and just let her do it without urging her.

Always thinking about it.

After a long while, Chang Sheng came to his senses and confessed again and again.

Yu Wenshu waved his hand: "What does the letter say? You look so bad, but someone stole the camp?"

Changsheng looked strange, shook his head and said: "On the contrary, the camp built by the enemy forces more than ten miles away from Changsheng Camp to confuse us was burned down by themselves, except for the beacon towers and fortresses along the way outside Shanshan County where a large number of enemy troops were entrenched.

They all gave up."

Yu Wenshu didn't hear anything wrong in it and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this?"

Changsheng saw that the old man didn't seem to have any bad intentions and was really concerned about the war situation here, so she stopped hiding it. She asked her staff to tell Yuwen about the strategy they had recently discussed. They previously believed that the enemy must at least have to retreat before retreating.

Harass the Changsheng camp, and ask the Changsheng from Dunhuang to send some troops back to rescue them in order to break out of the encirclement.

Now that the opponent has given up attacking the rear of Changsheng Camp, it means that the enemy thinks that such an attack is unnecessary. It means that the main force of the enemy army has arrived. After the two sides join forces, they think that their strength is enough to break out. This is very important for Changsheng Camp.

It will be another hard battle.

At this time, Changsheng suddenly hoped that Yu Wenshu had come with a large army, because after the previous battle, the strength of both sides was now ebbing and flowing. After this period of repair, the Gondor camp slowly recovered its vitality. As long as this time

Yu Wenshu can bring tens of thousands of elite troops, maybe not tens of thousands, but a few thousand. That will be a great supplement to the frontal battlefield.

Unexpectedly, Yu Wenshu smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I really came here alone." He also felt a little embarrassed at the moment. Although he had a high status in the Yuwen family, after all, he only had the right to mobilize and not command the border troops. Those border troops

Most of the troops are not his direct subordinates, so each unit is acting as a subordinate. Since they are not directly facing the enemy, most of them are not in a state of combat readiness, and their mobilization is also difficult.

Some people even asked whether Changsheng had lied about the military situation and claimed that he had defeated the Turkic coalition, but in fact he was just unable to retreat. If he believed her, he had organized his troops and ran over to find that the other party had run away or was ambushed instead.

But what to do.

This kind of statement is actually very popular and has received a lot of reconsideration. After all, this is the main Turkic force Ashinaran cadre who can defeat Chen Ping's main force. Although the Changsheng Army can fight, it cannot be one against two.

But after hearing the battle report, Yu Wenshu felt that the Changsheng camp probably didn't lie, so she had an inexplicable confidence in Changsheng. She didn't want the great opportunity to pacify the northwest to slip away from her eyes, so she took a group of her relatives with her first.

Wei first came on horseback and ordered the rest to contact the troops and supplies first. After they had finished reorganizing, he ordered them to rush to Dunhuang immediately for reinforcements.

However, he didn't want to tell Chang Sheng the dirty details. He asked Chang Sheng seriously: "Your men just analyzed that the Turkic Tatars may have merged and are likely to move south in large numbers. I think what you said is very reasonable.

, then if the reinforcements can't be felt for a while, how sure do you think we can win based solely on Dunhuang's military strength?"

If the other party comes with another tribe of two to three thousand people, it is not that the several thousand people from the humble position cannot fight. If there is another battalion, there is some chance of winning. But if Tiele's main force goes south in a big way, then the humble job will...

Changsheng stopped talking at this point. Her meaning was very obvious. Her troops were also human beings, not Vajras in the sky. If it was really Shibi Khan who went south in a large scale, then he could only invite Taishang Laojun to come.

.

Yu Wenshu looked into Chang Sheng's eyes and said: "My old man is here to tell you the truth. If you lose one soldier in this battle, I will replace it with two. If you lose two, I will replace four with you. Weapons War

The same goes for A. As long as you kill the enemy with all your strength, no matter what the result is, I will definitely ask the Holy One to reward you." Yu Wenshu's meaning is very clear, which is to let Changsheng exchange his son with the other party. This method has been without any big problems since ancient times.

Yes, because of the Han nationality’s numerical advantage, as long as it is exchanged, we generally make the profit.

But Changsheng is a typical person who loves his soldiers as his sons. His soldiers are so precious and he has spent a lot of effort to cultivate them. Who cares about those barbarians? They will also be stripped of their material as workers in the future, but she does not dare to say so at the moment.

I can only quickly reply: "Thank you for the promotion, sir. I will definitely do my best as a youngster."

"This is a great opportunity to bring peace to the northwest. I am optimistic about you. The war is imminent and the soldiers are thinking of self-preservation. That is my dereliction of duty. No matter what worries you have, you can speak now. I will accept everything."

Yuwenshu said domineeringly.

What Changshengxin said sounded familiar to me. I just told it to a man named Ye Qiu not long ago.

Under the ancient system, ordinary soldiers were worthless. Most of them were just numbers in historical records. They were pure war consumables. Even if they died, they would only receive a small amount of silver pension. As long as these vacancies are filled in

That would be great, maybe everyone would be happy. But Chang Sheng attaches great importance to his subordinates, especially those veterans who are rich in combat experience.

In her opinion, these are non-renewable precious resources. A veteran is worth far more to the team than a few recruits. The casualties and loss of veterans will cause huge losses and damage to the composition of the army, causing a decline in the army's combat effectiveness.

linear decrease.

Facing the Turkic coalition Changsheng Battalion this time, they lost nearly 300 infantrymen, and more than 100 people were injured and may have left the battlefield forever. Changsheng was heartbroken. Fortunately, the remaining people who survived have been tempered by the flames of war and have become better.

They have grown up. Some of them have fought four or five times from the beginning to now, and they have rich combat experience. They are the ones that Changsheng wants to train to become officers in the future.

In Changsheng's plan, after this war, he will use the remaining more than a thousand soldiers to lead about 2,500 new soldiers, and then double his army.

If you follow Yu Wenshu's advice, it seems that your troops and supplies will be greatly replenished, you will have a high prestige, you will gain the trust of this veteran minister, and you will be guaranteed a promotion. The advantage seems to be

These are the current points.

On the other hand, due to the loss of veterans in our own army, the combat effectiveness of the army will plummet in the short term, which is equivalent to more than a year of useless training. Once we return to the pre-liberation period, we will have to fight against the Turks.

Only if the Tatars are willing to fight you.

Secondly, my prestige in the team will be reduced. Changsheng's image has always been that of noble soldiers but easy profit. Whatever good things are thrown at the soldiers regardless of cost, including the best spears and strongest shields, as well as countless long-range

Everyone sees the development and research of firearms. Chang Sheng wishes that all his soldiers were armed to the teeth. He wishes that every battle would have zero casualties.

Therefore, Changsheng has also won the title of loving soldiers like sons among the soldiers. This commander has truly treated his subordinates as brothers and achieved what is love. Therefore, the cohesion of her troops is very high. Now she must destroy them for these false reputations and interests.

Is the image she has carefully maintained for a long time worth it? Do you think she is actually a person who uses a soldier's name in exchange for military honors?

Then there is the question of whether Yu Wenshu is trying to paint a bigger picture for himself. This is a tactic that works well in the officialdom. As mentioned before, the sky is full of flowers. After the fight, there are many people who will give various discounts or even turn their backs. Even this old man

What he said is true. How much can he deliver? This is all a question.

Now there are two roads before Changsheng. Either he should choose between government and opposition and fame, or he should choose between military strength and personal image. In other words, should he sacrifice his family for the benefit of everyone or harm the public and enrich himself?

The former is Yue Fei, and the latter may become a warlord.

After a slight hesitation, Changsheng made up his mind: "I will do my best, Lord Yuwen, please rest assured." After saying this, Changsheng responded to the other party's request and took him to review his two teams, Changsheng Camp and Gondor Camp.

"Sir Yuwen, please see, our Changsheng camp already has nearly a thousand pairs of iron armor. This is all the efforts of the adults in the Ministry of War." Changsheng decided to strike first and thanked Yuwenshu excitedly. After all, the other party also

A member of the Ministry of War also contributed to the last petition: "If Mr. Yuwen hadn't spoken kind words in front of the emperor on behalf of the subordinates, making the emperor happy, how would there be these armors and the humble position?

This great victory was all thanks to you, sir, who saved the lives of thousands of my soldiers."

As the saying goes, a person can wear a flattering coat but never wear it. This string of rainbow farts from Changsheng was very useful to Yu Wenshu, but he also thought of the situation when the civil servants in the court last year vowed to oppose him, and thought of the child's father and the royal family.

I couldn't help but sigh, and the smile that was originally on my face gradually disappeared.
