After making the suggestion, Lu Zhaoqi coldly glanced at Chen Dexing diagonally opposite him. £∝ He had been stubborn for two months and had not troubled Chen Dexing. It was not because he was afraid of Chen Dexing, but because Jia Sidao still needed Chen Dexing to help build a stone generator. He would not be so open. When Jia Sidao needed Chen Dexing to find trouble, it was not because he was asking for trouble for Chen Dexing, but because he himself was asking for trouble.
But now, the stone generator has been built and has shown its power in front of the generals of Yangzhou. Everyone knows that the stone generator is a good thing, and everyone wants it for sure. The other side of this military weapon is credit, strength, and the capital for the generals to settle down! If such good things are not taken out, everyone will concentrate them on Chen Dexing alone. Doesn’t it mean that the Chen-shou-eating person is to have a single meal?
Eating alone will lead to hatred!
As a treacherous minister, Jia Sidao naturally knew this truth, and saw his eyes wandering in the hall, catching the facial expressions of the generals.
Everyone wants a stone machine! But is Chen Dexing willing to give it? What if he breaks up his army? Even if the officials reward him with a rampant official, he will be idle and scattered without soldiers? I don’t know how many idle warriors are like this.
"Qingzhi, do you see what Lu Zuowu said makes sense?" Jia Sidao asked with a kind look. But the idea in his heart was already settled. The war was about to be fought, so we should not offend the generals of the Lianghuai for Chen Dexing.
Chen Dexing smiled faintly and saluted with his hands: "Your Majesty, what Lu Zuowu said is wrong. If you hurt his ten fingers, it is better to cut off one finger; if you retreat ten enemy troops, it is better to destroy one enemy. If you scatter the troops in each army, each army will only have several stone launchers, and a volley shot can only attack more than twenty iron cannons. I wonder how many Northern Captains can destroy?"
Lu Zhaoqi smiled slowly, and did not look at Chen Dexing. He just bowed to Jia Sidao and said softly: "My husband, if Chen Chengxin can make great contributions alone, the decisive battle against the Northern Barbarians in the future will prevent us from fighting with our lives!"
This sentence was heartbreaking, but Jia Sidao just laughed and was extremely generous. After being brought down by the soldiers for 17 or 18 years, Jia Sidao naturally knew how to pretend to be in front of a bunch of rough comrades.
"Above the battle formation, our Song army is bound to fight bloody battles, but we just dismantle the archery army and use it... I wonder if you will use the stone generator like Chen Qingzhi? This is a waste of thousands of stone generators! Winning is certainly a reward for the sky. If you lose and mislead the country, your life will be difficult to save! Qingzhi, do you have any way to achieve the best of both worlds?"
After Jia Sidao finished speaking, he looked at Chen Dexing with a smile. In his opinion, he gave Chen Dexing an opportunity to show goodwill to the generals of the two Huai Rivers. As long as he patted his chest and ensured that the various sect teams could perform normally, this would be sold. As long as the generals of the two Huai Rivers have a good impression of Chen Dexing, there will always be a place to serve him as a commander in the future. It is only a matter of time before he gradually advances to the commander.
"If you want to reply to your husband, Dexing has no way to achieve the best of both worlds. If you really want to break up the army, you should be considered as no army in this battle!"
The expression on Jia Sidao's face froze. Chen Dexing's words were threatening the victory or defeat of the decisive battle of the Yangtze Bridge! Jia Sidao's eyes became cold, but Chen Dexing's expression remained unchanged - everything else was easy to say, even if he was not allowed to enter the horizontal shift, he would never hand over the gun!
"My husband, the lower officials have another way that cannot be considered the best of both worlds." Chen Dexing then spoke again, "The lower officials have not many artillery soldiers, only more than 1,400 people, and most of them are novice. It is a bit difficult to control 63 stone generators, and no matter how many there are, they cannot be used. Or you can take out 100 heavy stone generators and distribute them to the army. The artillery army only has 63 light stone generators that are easy to move. "
If you cannot hand over the military power, you might as well hand over some weapons, which can be considered as giving Jia Sidao a step.
"My husband, the student thinks Chen Qingzhi's suggestion is a solution to both sides." Liao Yingzhong spoke again at this time to solve Chen Dexing's problem. These days, he had accepted two more generous gifts from Chen Dexing, with a total value of four or five thousand coins. Although he could not be said to feed him, he still had to say something at the critical moment.
Jia Sidao glanced at Lu Zhaoqi. He also knew that the old military leader was thinking, and he wanted to do everything possible to ruin Chen Dexing's affairs! Moreover, Jia Tsengchen also understood his ideas very well. If he had a position in Lu Zhaoqi, he would also try his best to deal with Chen Dexing!
Lu Zhaoqi showed a sarcastic smile: "My husband, if Chen Qingzhi can issue another military order, he can be mobilized in time, and to support the troops with thunder and no mistakes can be made. You might as well use the artillery army in a concentrated manner."
"Chen Qingzhi, do you dare to issue another military order?"
Chen Dexing glanced at Jia Sidao. At this time, Jia Sidao just stood quietly after several cases, his eyes cold as if he was quite dissatisfied with his confrontation just now.
This traitorous minister has to bet on his own!
Chen Dexing took a deep breath and crossed his hands and said, "I am willing to issue a military order!"
...
Under the dim sky, northwest of Yangzhou City, outside the Mongolian army camp, Li Cuixian was already riding on a tall horse, but letting the red cloak behind him be blew by the strong wind in the wild.
Five or six thousand red-coated men were dressed neatly, lined up and just waiting quietly.
Needless to say, this scene was the army that had set off and was about to go to the battlefield. However, unlike two months ago, everyone's expressions showed anxiety and fear, and their morale seemed a little low.
Li Xiong and his generals and subordinates of the Zhongyi Army were also wearing red coats, but they stood behind Li Cuixian with horses, and their eyes were filled with worry.
Li Yu and Li Cuixian secretly communicated with Jia Sidao. In Yidu Li family, it is also the highest secret. Only Li Yu, Li Cuixian, father and daughter, Yang Miaozhen, who lived in seclusion for many years, as well as Yang Miaozhen's adopted daughter Yang Mingxia, disciple Cui Yueer and other five people know. Even Li Xiong, who had been with Li Yu for many years, only knew that Li Yu had a strong army and did not obey Mongolian orders.
As for the generals of the Li family who followed Li Xiong and Li Cuixian, they only thought they were part of the Mongolian army. They were worried about the increasingly difficult battle situation at the moment, worried that they would not be able to return to their homes once they were defeated. At that time, the four-legged Mongolian cavalry would not care about the two-legged Han infantry!
However, Li Cuixian smiled and looked confident in her chest. When she heard the sound of horse hooves behind her, she knew it was her righteous brother Li Xiong. She asked in a low voice: "Fourth brother, are you all ready?"
Li Xiong glanced at Li Cuixian, lowered his voice and said, "Three sisters, you have prepared everything, and each soldier brought rations for six days."
The rules of the Li family's Red Coat Army are that one day's field ration is two kilograms of rice and flour, and six days' ration is twelve kilograms, which is a big burden for ordinary soldiers. Therefore, such an arrangement is extremely unusual. As long as the military generals with a little experience know that the above are making a plan to escape at any time.
Li Cuixian breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the army lined up more than ten steps away waiting for departure, and was still serious and quiet. At this time, there was a dull and dense sound of hooves in the direction of the Mongolian army camp, and it was obvious that the Mongolian cavalry had dispatched. She turned her head and whispered: "There will be a hard battle tomorrow and the next two days. If you can't win, these six days of rations will be the lives of thousands of our red-coated men! If there is no food in our stomachs, we will find it difficult to survive Huaibei!"
Li Xiong did not answer, and he really didn't know what to say. But Li Cuixian's appearance was extremely calm, which made him feel a little relieved, and of course he had regrets. Now Princess Li San's performance is clearly the style of a general! This is the most outstanding person in the third generation of the Li family in Yidu, why is he a woman?
