Yan King Zhu Di's attack was like a fierce tiger, and Changxing Hou Geng Bingwen's defense was like a stab. Geng Bingwen learned his lesson, and any defeated soldiers and refugees would be resettled elsewhere, under guard, and the Zhending city was impeccably defended. Yan
The king attacked for three days, but failed to make any progress, and instead lost a lot of troops. The king of Yan had few soldiers, so he could not afford such a waste. Seeing the dead and injured, Zhu Di felt very distressed, and quickly ordered the troops to withdraw, and gathered the generals to discuss countermeasures.
.
Xia Xun was kind to the King of Yan twice and saved his three sons. At this time, he was already the confidant of the King of Yan. Of course, he was indispensable in such an occasion, but Xia Xun was not under the command of the King of Yan now.
The general in charge of the army.
Xia Xun knew his own affairs, and Xia Xun knew that no matter what, he would not be able to lead troops in a war. Even if he was an honors student at a military academy in modern times, most of the tactics and tactics used in modern warfare would be transferred to
There is absolutely no place for them in this era. Those so-called more advanced strategies and tactics are in ruins in the wrong era and under the wrong war conditions.
For example, in the pre-Qin art of war, there are detailed uses of chariots, while the use of war horses is only reserved for conveying intelligence, spying on news, etc. Let a famous pre-Qin general suddenly command a Ming Dynasty mixed infantry and cavalry, mixed hot and cold weapons.
Troops, the strategy he came up with in a hurry to deal with the new combat conditions may not be much better than an ordinary Ming Dynasty general.
Of course, in the thinking of people like Fang Xiaoru, there may be completely different judgments: the famous swords of ancient times are as sharp as iron; the military sages of ancient times are all omnipotent; the wise ministers of ancient times are all powerful.
Famous ministers can definitely solve all kinds of conflicts in the world today; as long as it is a secret recipe passed down from ancestors, it will definitely be more effective than medicines developed by future generations...
Under the conditions of modern warfare, a military satellite and the mobilization of troops are almost invisible. The use of strategies and tactics is almost a duel of high-tech weapons under the condition that the military plans of both sides are completely transparent. The generals are fighting against something similar to
After pondering, researching and applying the thirty-six strategies and other legendary strategies and tactics, it is almost unbelievable to say that he is more brilliant than the famous generals in ancient times.
Xia Xun knew that if he was rashly given an army and asked to stand alone, his fate would be ten times more miserable than that of Zhao Kuo who was talking about military affairs on paper. Therefore, he had already thought up some excuses and waited for Yan
When Wang Zhudi was asked to entrust him with the important task of leading troops, he politely declined. To his expectation, after King Yan invited him to post a detailed account and talked about it in detail and learned about his resume and life, he had no intention of letting him lead troops at all.
Appointing people based on their talents and never acting on emotions gave Xia Xun another layer of understanding of Zhu Di's character. At present, Xia Xun temporarily serves as a military discipline officer in King Yan's army, equivalent to King Zhu Di's military police captain, patrolling the military camp.
Picking up lawbreakers and punishing deserters are important positions that cannot be held by people who are not confidants, but they do not directly lead troops. At the moment, it is most suitable for Xia Xun. Zhu Di wants to reuse him, but does not want to discredit his benefactor, and there is no suitable position for him at the moment.
His position and his ability to participate in the military aircraft actually showed his special status in the heart of King Yan.
"Generals, our army has been attacking the city for several days. Geng Bingwen has been on the battlefield for a long time and has learned a lot after suffering a big loss. If you want to use surprise troops, it may be difficult to get hold of them. If we use regular troops together, we will not be able to fight for a long time. Secondly, we will not be able to fight for a long time.
We cannot afford such casualties, what are your plans, generals?"
Zhu Di waited for all the generals to arrive, and immediately explained the dilemma of the situation straight to the point. The generals were silent for a while. After a while, Zhu Nengfang said: "In the opinion of the last general, Geng Bingwen lost a game first, and now he is absolutely unwilling to do it again."
If you give up on the truth, we have limited food and grass, and limited troops and horses. We cannot attack by force. It is better to retreat temporarily and prepare for war."
Zhu Di was still a little reluctant and asked again: "Does Shihong think we can't capture Zhending in one go? Please note that if we can capture Zhending, it will be a heavy blow to the court. If we succeed in one battle, this king will
It will surely become more popular, and the kings may change their banners and come to vote. This is the key to reversing the situation. I... really can't bear to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Zhang Yudao: "Your Highness, Geng Bingwen is not an easy person to deal with. If Wenxuan created an opportunity this time and Your Highness made good use of his tactics, how could Geng Bingwen be defeated so easily? Now that our army is exhausted and the Zhending City cannot be captured at the moment, we should be decisive
Let go, otherwise when the two armies of Wu Jie and Wu Gao arrive, Geng Bingwen resorts to his old tricks and forces me to fight step by step, and the results we have achieved by then will be ruined. Therefore, the general also thinks that... we should retreat."
"This..." Zhu Di hesitated a little.
"Ahem! Your Highness, given your humble position, can you say a few words?"
Xia Xun coughed and asked Zhu Di.
Zhu Di smiled and said: "As the saying goes, both listening and understanding will make you understand. Although Wenxuan knows everything and talks about it, the king wants you to join the military plane, but I don't want you to become Xu Shu."
All the generals laughed after hearing this, and the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became relaxed. Xia Xun said with a smile: "Yes, then I will tell you my opinion. Your Highness has won a great victory in the battle. His morale has been boosted, and the military's morale has been determined. We have already had a fight with him."
The capital of the court's dealings is now the court's concern. Why should we put all our money into Zhending City? It should be noted that taking down a Zhending City does not mean that the court will lose everything.
Furthermore, the number of soldiers surrendered by our army has far exceeded His Highness's original three bodyguards. They were angered by the injustice of the court and the injustice of the emperor, so they took refuge in His Highness, but it does not mean that His Highness can now treat them like an arm.
The commander pointed out that if we encounter a heavy setback at the gate of Zhending City, it is inevitable that some of us will have other ideas. This is a hidden danger.
What if we return to Peiping now to recuperate the three armies and reorganize the ranks? When we fight again in the future, the officers and soldiers of the three armies will return to the battlefield with a completely new military posture. This is a job of sharpening the sword and chopping firewood. What's more, Geng Bingwen was defeated.
The imperial court may need to increase its troops. Even if there is no increase in troops, as soon as Wu Jie and Wu Gao arrive, we have no foundation here, so we still have to retreat. Your Highness should know that whether we retreat voluntarily or are forced to retreat, no matter what the situation is.
Being hostile to me has a very different meaning.",
King Yan said with admiration: "Yes, Wenxuan said it clearly. Shihong (Zhu Neng) and Shimei (Zhang Yu) had something in their stomachs, but they couldn't tell it. Wenxuan said it in just a few words.
It couldn't be more clear. No wonder Ming'er praised you for being as talented as Su Qin and Zhang Yi, and your eloquence is really amazing."
Xia Xun said with some surprise: "Little princess? Didn't she... return to Aurous Hill? When did Your Highness see her?"
Prince Yan smiled and said, "Of course I haven't seen you now. It was that little girl Ming'er who told me when you were recuperating in my palace."
Xia Xun was relieved. He raised his hands and said with a humble smile: "How could a young princess praise a humble position like this? I think His Highness is using the princess's mouth to praise a humble position. I really don't dare to accept such a humble position."
King Yan laughed: "It was Ming'er who praised you, but her original words were not like that. She said: 'Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law, you don't know, that one is called Yang Xu or Xia Xun.
That stinky guy is eloquent and has a brilliant tongue. He can make dead people live. When you talk to him, be sure to keep your eyes wide open. If you are not careful, you will be deceived by him!'"
King Yan imitated Xu Ming'er's tone and said these words again, and all the soldiers in the Chinese army's tent burst into laughter...

At Longjiang Station in the north of Nanjing, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong is stationed here at the moment, ready to go.
However, he may have to build up his momentum for a while, because there were originally about 400,000 standing troops near Nanjing City. Geng Bingwen took away 150,000, and transferred another 150,000 from other places, for a total of 300,000 troops heading north. Now
After losing troops and generals, only 250,000 troops remained.
Zhu Yunwen became ruthless and decided to give Li Jinglong another 250,000 troops and a combined force of 500,000 to attack the King of Yan in the north. He was prepared to drown the damned Zhu Laosi alive with his spit, but these soldiers could no longer come from the capital.
was drawn from the standing army.
In addition, if you have a regular army, you must have an army ready and a large number of servants. Most of the servants from the prefectures and counties near Nanjing have been mobilized. These people also have to be recruited from other places, which also requires a preparation time. Therefore, although Li Jinglong worshiped
After receiving the commander's seal, the army has been stationed at Longjiang Station and has not officially moved north yet.
That morning, Zhu Yunwen suddenly wanted to visit his eldest cousin, as if the emperor personally asked the three armies. He followed the example of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, and led a group of people without notifying Li Jinglong in advance.
All the civil and military ministers rushed to Longjiang Station. Li Jinglong was the general recommended by Huang Zicheng. Huang Zicheng was worried that Li Jinglong would do something inappropriate and he would lose face. As soon as he learned that the emperor was going to the military camp, he had already taken the lead and sent someone.
I went to notify Li Jinglong.
When Emperor Jianwen arrived at the Longjiangyi camp, he saw flags and flags fluttering, cannons flying, and Li Jinglong diligently training his troops on the school field. Li Jinglong came from a military family, his father was a famous general in the world, and he was the best at training troops.
Yes, with the wave of the flag and the sound of the cannon, the three armies are really being drilled.
Zhu Yunwen did not allow the garrison to inform Li Jinglong, and quietly led a group of ministers to the school grounds. The scene in front of him was truly shocking. Li Jinglong was good at military training. These troops were originally drawn from various places and were elite troops.
With a little help, you can become a powerful army with overwhelming momentum.
As soon as the three armies moved, the momentum was like an overwhelming mountain. With the movement of swords and guns, the energy was like the wind and clouds. Zhu Yunwen didn't know the soldiers. He was hiding in the dark. Just looking at the formation of the martial arts, he felt an invincible spirit. Long Yan couldn't help but feel delighted. Only then did he reveal his body.
, full of praise for the elder cousin.
Xu Zengshou secretly pouted at the side: "You said you wanted to go to the barracks to have a look, and the soldiers led the way obediently. If you said you were not allowed to inform the commander, the soldiers didn't inform you. What kind of military order and strict military discipline is this? My father led the way.
When fighting, hum, hum…"
Zhu Yunwen didn't understand what was going on in the army. He pretended to watch it for a while. At first, he thought it was quite novel. After a while, he felt that it was boring for a group of big and small men to dance with guns and sticks. He still chatted about the past with Mr. Fang.
The ceremony was more interesting in ancient times, so I had to go back to the palace.
Before leaving, Zhu Yunwen stood on the general stage and told Li Jinglong earnestly: "Jiujiang, I want you to be the rebellious general. You must fight for me. When you leave the army, I will sacrifice to heaven."
I will personally go here with Nanjiao for you. You must be brave enough to eliminate the traitor and do not let me down. I am here to wish you success!"
Li Jinglong was covered in armor and could not perform a full salute, so he clasped his hands and said impassionedly: "I will cut my throat and kill Yan Ni, so that I can live up to your majesty's high hopes!"
Zhu Yunwen smiled and nodded, and left with satisfaction. Although Xu Zengshou, who came with him for the military parade, did not agree with Li Jinglong's military training methods, he was secretly worried when he saw the momentum of the troops.
The imperial court wants to increase its troops by 250,000 and gather an army of 500,000 to attack Peiping. The eldest brother-in-law only has a few people. How can he fight this battle? It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw!
Xu Zengshou was secretly worried when he suddenly glanced at Li Jinglong, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and he couldn't help but think: "Maybe we can work hard on this kid!" Thinking of this, Xu Zengshou stayed here.
Xu Zengshou and Li Jinglong were close friends. When Zhu Yunwen was sent away, Li Jinglong boasted proudly to Xu Zengshou and said: "Third brother, do you think that the soldiers of the three armies that I have trained are still useful?"
Xu Zengshou curled his lips and said, "What's the big deal? If you let my eldest brother lead the troops, or if you let me lead the troops, it may not be worse than the troops you lead."
Li Jinglong laughed loudly: "Come on, third brother, even if you two brothers have the power to reach heaven and earth, the emperor will not leave these 500,000 troops in your hands. Who asked the emperor to deal with you as the eldest brother-in-law?"
He winked at Xu Zengshou and said, "We brothers haven't gotten together for a while. Let's go and have a drink in my tent."
He put his arm on Xu Zengshou's shoulder and whispered: "Brother bought a dancer the day before yesterday. Her appearance is very similar to that rebellious wife of Yang Xu, Miss Xie Yufei. Hahaha, let's go, let's take you to see it."
My knowledge, but... is limited to her dancing and singing voice, and her skills in bed, hehe, but only brothers can benefit from it."
Xu Zengshou was taken aback and shouted: "What? You hid a woman in the army!"
Li Jinglong said nonchalantly: "Hey, don't make a fuss. Normally, I ask her to pretend to be a man and put on a military uniform. What's the big deal?"
His voice suddenly lowered, and he smiled obscenely at Xu Zengshou: "Third brother, don't tell me, this beauty looks really damn good in military uniform. Yesterday, my brother got into a mood and asked her to wear a mandarin duck war coat.
, wearing half body armor, wearing a red tassel helmet, holding a gun and bending down in front of the couch, untied her lower clothes and used it for a while, that was so satisfying, ahaha..."
Xu Zengshou said sourly: "With half a million troops in hand, we are just a pig. This battle is guaranteed to make a profit. Of course you will be relaxed and happy. But don't be so coquettish. These soldiers are really called leaders of our Xu family, and we are not willing to lead them."
Well, whether you fight well or not is a problem, go ahead if you like..."
Li Jinglong was startled, immediately put away his smiling face, and asked alertly: "What do you mean by this, third brother?"
