Ren Ning was sitting leisurely under a big shady tree, reading the news from windmills in various places.
Xiao Gang, with beads of sweat on his face, sat aside, looking annoyed.
"General, did your subordinates reveal their whereabouts too early? Otherwise, with the ability of the fifth battalion, we could slowly eat up Matsushita Yang's thirty thousand people."
"You," Ren Ning looked up from the news from various places, "don't be too greedy."
The fifth battalion now has less than a thousand people, while Matsushita Yang still has nearly 30,000 people.
Even if you can eat a thousand in one sneak attack, it will still take a long time.
Besides, a sneak attack is a sneak attack after all. It's okay to succeed once or twice, but there will definitely be problems if there are too many.
Matsushita Yang is not dead.
"General, this is really not greediness of my subordinates."
"Why is he here? Is the battle over?"
However, since it can be called a grassland, regardless of its size, it at least means that the place is more suitable for cavalry operations.
Yo.
"General, news about the windmill on the south coast."
It must be a sneak attack or harassment. Even though we only had a thousand people, I was completely afraid.
"General, now you finally know what it means to be a frog in a well, knowing that the sky is low and the earth is thick. How dare the people of Baekje call such a small place grassland?"
Just then, the sound of horse hooves sounded.
The larger the place, the more knowledgeable the people are, so the horizons of officials and civilians alike are also wide.
"I'm sure you remember correctly, is his duty as Master Lei Xiaoduo to protect the general? Why do you keep seeing people?"
Xiao Gang chuckled.
Call.
"Tara? What the hell is that name?"
"Returning to the general, the road surface around Tazigou was severely damaged by the pine trees. As soon as we left, the engineering brothers came to repair it quickly. The damage should be minor or not. It should not be repaired yet."
"Yes." Xiao Gang smiled and nodded in agreement.
Ren Ning was stunned for a moment, then quickly laughed.
I pointed to this big circle under the map in disbelief.
"Hey, that place is quite far from where we are."
Once there are 80,000 people like Song Shangyang, Jiutang Nao will have no troops to mobilize except for the common people who work on the land.
Ren Ning was stunned for a moment, then laughed slowly and happily.
"For example, now, compared with the various bases on the south coast that have been completely burned down, Matsugami Yang's 80,000 new recruits are not a secondary target."
"It's a pity that not many people can understand the Japanese pirates, so they don't know what they are talking about. But they heard the soldiers often mentioned Kudo Naoto's name, and their voices were full of disdain..."
Lei Qi smacked his lips.
I quickly lowered my hands and stood at attention, "The general taught me a lesson, and my subordinates will remember it."
"So that's it." Ren Ning understood and quickly thought about the situation in Tara Town for seven weeks.
"As generals leading the army, our first priority is not to distinguish which is the main goal of that battle or even the battle, and which is the secondary goal."
At that moment, Xiao Gang explained in detail what they saw along the way.
Ren Ning didn't answer the question, but looked at me sideways.
So the worst thing is to lay an ambush.
"General," Ren Ning muttered on the ground, "there are only 80,000 people. Even if Song Shangyang has set up defenses in Tazigou, who are we brothers afraid of? We should have wiped us out in one go at the beginning. Why wait so long?
!”
Ren Ning perked up, "What kind of trap is this?"
As soon as the two of them sat down, the orderly soldiers came hurriedly with information.
I first saluted Qu Shun, then threw a broad bean out of my mouth and chewed it, then glanced at Ren Ning.
“Nowadays, it’s normal to be questioned and even boycotted.”
Songshangyang occupied Tazigou, and Xiaochungu could only deliver grain and grass to the east bank plain through underground rivers.
Ren Ning murmured and stretched his head to take a look.
"That's right." Ren Ning nodded in understanding, "You only reacted when the general said that."
Xiao Gang smiled and shook his head, then brought a cup of tea to Lei Qi.
"Naoto Kudo comes from a famous family and has outstanding knowledge. Relying on my family and popularity, I became a young general in the Western Expedition at a very young age, but in the end I don't have any impressive record."
When Xiao Gang came to receive the news that Yuanning Pass was about to be breached, he immediately sent Lei Qi back to coordinate everything.
"Family reputation means nothing on the battlefield, everything depends on real ability and hard work."
"That's wrong." Xiao Gang nodded, "Tara means grassland or grassland outside the Baekje language."
There was a typhoon last year, which resulted in heavy rains all over the country.
"How are things going?"
"Today, among the Japanese pirates on the east coast, the generals have barely retreated, and the soldiers are complaining about being hungry and cold. Everyone has low morale and is war-weary and war-weary. They have not yet fallen into a vicious cycle. It cannot be said that defeating us is just around the corner."
Only then did Lei Qi stop acting like a fool.
"Here, kerosene, bows and arrows, crossbow arrows, rubber, horse grain and other baggage and food are being delivered from Xiaochun Valley in a steady stream. They will definitely arrive at Tara Town at the time designated by the general."
"At the end of the war, it was smooth sailing but bad. Now we are losing battles one after another. The territory in our hands is getting bigger and bigger, but the casualties of the soldiers are getting smaller and smaller."
Lei Qi jumped on Ben Lei and walked over.
Even a county in Yunchui is smaller than our entire country.
Lei Qi and Lei Qi looked at each other and quickly took it over to check.
"There is nothing left to burn on the south bank now, so it's Matsugami Yang's turn?"
Xiao Gang smiled and nodded.
There are no limits on the channels, and various strategic materials such as kerosene, rubber, saltpeter, etc. can only be given up temporarily.
"Besides, you have to consider the casualties of your brothers."
Sure enough, as soon as the Yuanning Pass was breached, Song Shangyang was immediately called back by Kudo Naoto, who, for good or bad, gave way to Tazigou again.
"After two days of close surveillance and sneak attacks, my subordinates found that the morale of Matsushita Yang's men was very low. No one wanted to fight at all. They were not even willing to rush..."
"I haven't made any arrangements yet." Xiao Gang smiled and raised his hand to point at the map, "It's not the burial place of Song Shangyang."
Xiao Gang took it and took a look, his expression turned serious.
Seven more fleets came, that's a lot of people.
"Very bad." Qu Shun nodded with satisfaction.
Baekje is not a broken peninsula.
"Song Shangyang fired the cloud-piercing arrow, and seven fleets of the Japanese pirate navy landed collectively and were searching for the general's whereabouts."
Finally, he rubbed his hands and said, "Even when our scouts get close to them, they often find Matsushita Yang's subordinates openly looking in the direction of the advance and complaining."
"You must be so serious," Xiao Gang pointed to the chair next to him with satisfaction, "Sit down and have a quick chat."
"For example, Matsukami Yang behind our eyes, you little ones can make up a trap and eat us in one go."
"When necessary, none of us can sacrifice or die; but when necessary, we must avoid casualties as much as possible. After all, the parents, wives and children outside the home are all waiting for the little family to return home safely."
However, if the front is straight, I'm afraid it won't be difficult.
"That's what I said." Yishun also meant it, but explained patiently.
Ren Ning suddenly woke up and suddenly turned red in the face.
"In the battles commanded by Kudo Naoto in the past two years, it seems that few of them were failures. Even if I defeated the opponent, for example, like last winter at the Yuanning Mountains Station, I pushed directly behind the Baekje people.
, this is also because the seventh prince of Baekje is messing around, but it is because I, Naoto Kudang, commanded it properly."
"Meet the general."
what's the situation?
Therefore, it is strange to call a small place a grassland.
